Hi Jury! I'm really glad to have made it this far in the game and I just wanna say thank you playing thsi game with me! I will see this wasn't an easy road to get here but I got here one way or another. I think the difference between my game and Alex's is game is that I was way more passive than Alex was, and althought being aggressive can get you this far too, my passive game isn't as bad because I'm sitting here too.

During the early portions of the game, I had an alliance with Andrew and Alex and when Andrew went innactive, I only had Alex and were loyal to each other the whole game telling each other what we knew. I also didn't attend tribal council until really late in the game. I was immune all of pre merge and even tho that was a blessing, It hindered my chances to make alliances and to prove my loyalties to those alliances. No one approached me for an alliance so I went most of the game without out one.

When the merge came, I knew there were alliances already made so my plan was to lay low and see where things were and how things were gonna be. With the info Alex told me and my own knowledge I knew there were two alliances. And I knew I was a free agent and could do what i want. Beginning of the merge I caused the tie because I knew if I did that I would give the alliance with numbers, numbers I wouldn't be on the top of their hit list. But that didn't work because Danish self voted, so that plan didn't work. But It showed I was willing to work with the minority If it means I would get further. I still managed to fly under the radar for a couple more rounds until it came to F8.

Alex said he wanted Sarah to go, and I knew like that their alliance was voting as a block and I knew Danish and Yannick were voting as a Block. So i told Alex all we had to do was get Andrew and we got a 3-3-2 vote and in revote Sarah goes because Yannick wont vote his number 1 ally. But that didn't work and we drew rocks. Andrew left which was a loss of a number, but we gained Danish as a number because of it. Next round Me and Alex worked with Danish and we both talked to Yannick about voting Sarah and he did. So in my opinion, the biggest player at that point left.

After that I made a side deal with Jay to work with him and Clairie. He figured me and Alex were close and I figured i was 3rd with him and Clairie but I had to cover my bases. I knew he was still talking to Alex because Alex told me everything but I had to cover myself. Yannick was a threat and Alex wanted him gone, Yannick wasn't always honest with me so I was fine with it even tho I tried to work with him. When Alex won at F5 and Clairie couldn't vote, I knew Jay was the biggest threat. I knew Jay wasn't voting me but I knew Jay was a great player. He had a strong game, he was an open presence and He didn't lie to anyone basically. Also I knew if it came down to me and Clairie and him, I was gone. So since Alex was taking me to the end no matter what, I voted him out. Then Clairie left and Danish tried to be smart thinking he could tie the votes between me and Clairie but that didn't work. I knew I was in a good position to make it to the end and I did.

As a whole, I played the game with the hand I was given. I had to play passively because I didn't have the alliances you build when you go to Tribal early. I had one ally who told me what was happening and with my own grasps and own realization I saw where things were. The passive game I played by just sitting back and listening payed off because I never had immunity to hide behind. By sitting back, I made myself a non target until late game. I also didn't need to waste 4 idols because I was confident in where the votes were gonna go.

Just because I didn't play the aggressive game, doesn't mean I played the game. I played the game in which I could given the hand I was dealt. I was loyal to the person I said I was loyal too and I was confident in whatever I did in this game and I think that's why I deserve to get you're vote to win. Thanks for reading this <3 :D
