Hi guys.
Well, here we are. The end of the season. Here we go.
In the beginning of this season, I didn't know what to expect. I was especially shocked by the tribe pick via the challenge.
Almost immediately, Perry approached me for an alliance. I accepted the offer, and that is pretty much how the Platypus Squad started. We didn't have to worry about much in the beginning, since Shang won the first three immunity challenges before the swap.
After both the first and second swap, we made a lot of huge moves, and pretty much decimated the original Qin tribe. Then came the merge. Max tried to take Perry out, but word got out, and Max went home instead. At Final 8, I was being targeted by Gavin, one of my own allies, but that plan did not work out, either. Then, after Bryce was voted out, that only left original Qins in the game, so we had to turn on each other. Regardless of all of that, and after a crazy series of final votes, here I am at the end.
In this game, I didn't rely on much to keep me afloat. I didn't win any individual challenges, and I kept loyal to my allies throughout this game. Under most cases, loyalty can only get you so far, but in my case, it brought me really far.
Then we have the three biggest aspects of Survivor: social, physical, and strategic. I felt that I had a good social game, a decent physical game, but honestly, I don't think my strategic game was up to snuff. However, I still played with what I had, and with that said, I feel that these reasons are why you guys should vote for me.
Thank you, jury. I'm interested to see what you have to say.
