Whew! That was a hard read for me but even if I don’t get your vote, I hope that I can at least shed some light on my actions throughout the game. Thank you for coming in to this somewhat open minded, even if I only have a 0.000001% chance.

Annabelle,  you should consider voting for me because I caught on to you and your game so I set myself up to get out the biggest player in the game (you). You told me a while ago that you were afraid of Will cutting you like John did to Neda in BBCAN2. But what really ended up happening was Steve (me) took Vanessa (you) out like in BB17. Both of those seasons are defined by that final elimination, and I feel like our season is the same way. I knew what had to be done, and I did it.

Your words in your personal question hurt because I truly felt like I had found a friend in you. I see that at this moment that I’m headed down a one way street here, but hopefully after the game is long over, we can reconnect.

 I can’t justify my rude comments to Whitney and Kristen. I’ll be the first one to admit that. After the F5 vote, I for sure took out some frustration on you. You had just lied to me about how you were voting, and I really did trust you at the time. I think the root of my frustration was that you were the only person in the whole game who wasn’t buying what I was selling. You knew the best path for you to win the game, and you weren’t going to let me take you off that path. No matter how much I told you I didn’t care about Romain (obviously a lie) you never believed me, and for good reason.

  I think I still deserve to win the game because after you, I played the strongest UTR game. After you I had the least amount of votes cast against. I was only in danger to be voted out once, and I was super comfy in the majority that tribal.

No. I am not being fake at all. I haven’t said a single lie in my Final Tribal posts. I truly have done a lot of self-reflection in how I treated people throughout the season. You can believe what you want, but when the confessionals get revealed you will see that I am speaking the truth. I don’t know how I can convince you that I am being honest, because you seem to have made up your mind about that.

If I had been voted out instead of you, I would be writing down your name to win. You would have played a perfect game. There would be literally no arguments Will could possibly make against you. Like you said, you were the Queen of Morocco. That’s why I voted you out.

Also while I do think luck is a big factor in these games, I don’t see how I got lucky at the end. I’m really curious what makes you think this way. I worked my ASS off in the challenges in the endgame (7 hours spent on Simon, 3 hours spent on my Manga, 6 hours spent on the puzzle, over 300 resets of the Brantsteele simulator, I got unlucky with a typo in the Survivor Name game, and I would have won the final 5 immunity even without my challenge advantage).

Even if you vote Will tonight I will look back at our relationship in this game as a positive one. Thanks for being a huge part of the season.
