Introduction

Hi jurors! First of all I would like to say that I am so happy and grateful that I got the chance to play with every single one of you! This was honestly such a blast and I am so sad it is coming to an end. I do not know how you guys have perceived my game but all I can ask of yall is to keep an open mind when deciding who to vote. If you guys have any doubts or concerns about my game then pour your heart out during the questions and I will for sure give you my best answer. Anywho, thank you once again to the hosts for taking the time to host an awesome season! Let's get this show on the road.

Pre-Merge

Honestly I did not know what to expect coming into this season, I was absolutely terrified. So, I relied on what I knew best about myself, my ability to make people like me. When we first were sorted onto our tribes and found out this season was one world, I was ecstatic to be able to make good first impressions to the other tribe. Anywho, on the OG Ossa camp I made great conversations and connections with pretty much most of my tribe (Zack, JJ, Abi, Brian, Hedger, and Chloe). There, I was put into the numbers, and thus a great position in the Ossa camp. I was even in an alliance with Abi, JJ, and Zack! I was never worried about going to tribal council because I knew I wouldn't be going home anytime soon due to the position I put myself in. Then the tribe swap came! I was lucky enough to be put on the Huon tribe with 4 original Ossa members: myself, JJ, Abi, and Chloe and only one original Huon (so sorry Tasha I love you!!!). A couple days in on the Huon camp, I found the precious hidden immunity idol!



With the immunity idol in my pocket, I knew I was absolutely unstoppable in this game. When we lost the immunity challenge, I hard core pushed for to go home! Because I got intel from Zach that the OG Huon members on Liffey loved Tasha immensely, so I know I had to get rid of the backbone of Huon, especially with the merge coming soon. Even though Tasha was the absolute sweetest women ever, I rallied to troops to vote out Tasha. So sorry yall I know how much you guys loved her! Then, everything that could of gone wrong did go wrong and we lost the last pre-merge challenge 😞. No biggie though, knowing my alliance of Abi, JJ, and Zack, I knew Chloe was the one to go without a doubt.

The Merge

After going to FOUR OUT OF SIX TRIBAL COUNCILS, we finally merged! Once merged, I wanted to do the same thing I did when we first came into the game. I set out on a mission to get to know the people I didn't know and reconnect with the people from original Ossa. Apparently I did a bad job of it because JJ and one of my closest allies, was sent home in a 8-3 vote.



It's okay though, because I knew I can definitely come back from that, the game wasn't over yet.Even though JJ's vote was hard, it made me and Abi, grow closer, which I am so thankful for. This was the climax in my game!! After being mad for about 15 minutes LOL I decided I wasn't going to stay mad, but get to talking. JJ's vote was a blessing in disguise lowkey (love you JJ LOL) because it made me very vulnerable in this game which is a great thing! I had people coming up to me left and right saying sorry and how much they wanted to play with me, which was music to my ears. From that point on I realized I had to tell people what they wanted to hear in order to save my ass! At the final 10 myself, Abi, and Ashlee created an alliance called The Python Alliance (I made up the name hehe). Also Ashlee tried saying that I didn't put in any strategic input?? Let me clarify that she and Abi only had the chance to strategize while I was at school and when I would get out of school, Ashlee had to go to sleep so she never get to see me strategize but it's cool though, I'm not gonna let a girl who was inactive a lot to bring down my game hehe. Anyway, after Ronnie came to me and Abi with the plan to blindside Seamus, I was all for it of course, I wrote his name down on the parchment so fast LOL. From that point on the Python Alliance made the decision to flip back and forth from vote to vote in order to create trust and bonds throughout the whole game. Every vote I made, I made sure I gained the trust of people who voted with, but at the same time still have the trust of the people I voted against using my sincere and apologetic words, and people forgave me and still wanted me to work with them! In my opinion I was in the best position in this game, having the ability to have a fluid game and flip every vote was amazing because I was never worried I was gonna be the one to go home. The only time I was worried was at the final 7, so I used my idol, turns out I didn't need it LOL. But it is okay, it left the whole tribe shook because none of them knew I had it 😉

Regarding my friendship and alliance with Abi, I'm worried y'all are gonna look at me as a sheep. I AM NOT AND WAS NEVER A SHEEP IN THIS GAME. Abi had a very big presence in this game, everyone knew she was a great player, and this was a GREAT thing to me because I knew Abi would get voted out over me at any time in the game, so she was a great shield to have (Love you girly! <3). The final 5 was CRAZY! I absolutely loved everyone in the final 5 and I did not want to vote any of them out. I had my Python Alliance while also having a good relationship with Ronald and Benj. At the vote, Ronald approached me to vote off my alliance member Abi. It was a great offer because Abi was an absolute amazing player but at the same time I play a loyal ass game and I could never of voted Abi off, EVER. Unfortunately Abi was voted off that round, which I had a good feeling she would be.

The final 4 was the move I was proud of myself on! Ronald was as good as Abi in my opinion, he had a very good grounding and strategical stance in this game and I knew he could win if he made it to the end, Ashlee on the other hand was inactive at some parts of the game and wasn't as strategic as Ronald. But I was still very cautious going into the final 4 vote. One, I thought Ron and Benj were gonna vote me because Ashlee told me they told her to vote me, so when they approached me to vote Ash, I thought they were trying to avoid a vote split, so I voted Ronald in order to guarantee I had a shot at fire-making if it was me vs Ron. After me and Benj went back and forth for awhile (He wanted me to vote Ash and I wanted him to vote Ronnie) we voted separately and the votes tied. I stood my ground and told him I was not gonna vote Ashlee out because Ronald was such a huge threat, I didn't advocate for Ashlee to stay I advocated for Ronald to be eliminated. At the end it payed off and I convinced Benj to flip and Ronald was voted out. Now here we are in the final 3.



To tidy up this speech I'm going to further explain my game in 3 parts.

Physical Game

During the pre-merge, I worked hard enough on the challenges and was never seen as a weak link in the tribe. Unfortunately I did not win a single immunity challenge this season 😞 However, I didn't exactly need to because my position in this game couldn't be beat and I knew I had a small chance of going home every vote. However, I worked very hard on all of the challenges and gave 110% on everything. Plus I had a hidden immunity idol so I was always safe at atleast one vote!

Social Game

This is the part of the game that I excelled in. Using my bubble and sweet personality, I was easily approachable in this game. Everyone wanted to be my friend and everyone needed me at some point in the game. My social game allowed me to make so many genuine and sweet connections that made it hard for people to vote for me. Being very apologetic and understanding got me so far in this game. For example, when JJ was blindsided at the final 11. I opened up my arms and let people talk to me, with an understanding and genuine personality, people felt more comfortable to work with me in this game. Lastly, I PLAY A LOYAL LOYAL GAME. When I told Abi I had her back from day one, I meant I had her back! Same goes with Ashlee. I could never of voted Abi out of this game because I am a loyal loyal bitch. In the words of Courtney Yates, loyalty is something very overlooked in this game, some people see it as a weakness, but in my opinion it is a beautiful strength.



Strategic Game

I am actually very proud of myself on how strategic I was in this game! A lot of people may not of seen it but I was always thinking one step ahead of this game. The moves I suggested were very small but very impact on this game. For example, I pushed for Abi and I to vote separately at the Brian vote in order for us to A - Get intel from both sides because we knew this vote was going to have a polarizing effect on the game, and B - Make it seem like Abi and I aren't as close as it seems, and yall ATE IT UP.

In conclusion

Haha sorry if this was messy but I tried to go in depth with everything in the game. But I am going to provide a list of broad attributes of my game that I hope you guys consider when voting me.


 * I went to all but two tribal councils when the other finalists only went to the merge ones.


 * I found a hidden immunity idol!


 * I am a loyal bitch when it comes to this game, I will always have my ally's back no matter what.


 * Everybody wanted to work with me and needed my vote at one point in the game due to my approachable personality.


 * I didn't win any competitions but I used my strategic and social skills to make sure I was never the one in jeopardy.



Alrighty guys that pretty much sums it up! Hopefully I get to go into more detail about this game in y'alls questions!
