Board Thread:Season 23 - Greece/@comment-1775521-20150117005152

 Congratulations on making it all the way to the finals. Like everyone else, I would love to be there, but sadly the game didn’t end up in my favor. Anyway, I think everyone’s game is extremely different, which can make this decision easier or harder depending on your views of the game. I have a few questions and comments for everyone.

MJ

Taking a line from Tammy, you’ve flipped-flopped so many times in this game, I don’t even think YOU knew what team you were playing on half of the time. You betrayed Attica, you betrayed me, you betrayed Hanne, and on top of that, you were playing both sides of two alliances. Literally, there was not a single time in this game where you talked to me one-on-one. Weren’t we in the same alliance on Attica? Did you not want to talk to me? Did you not want to talk to anyone, because I rarely hear people saying they talked to you alone. I have just one question for you that I want you to answer, why should I even vote for you?





Amelia

Oh Amelia, you seemed so sweet but some things about your game threw me off. I was happy to see you joining my team, and was excited to see Will approach you as a possible swing vote. When it was time for us to attend tribal, I could feel your uneasiness about the vote, and didn’t want to put you through that because I liked you a lot. That’s when I made the move to work with you and take Will out. You know this, but there’s something that I don’t know about your game. Or perhaps didn’t.  I was questioning your loyalty to me in this game after the vote that sent me out. Your explanation was “The vote wasn’t going to work out,” but after hearing your speech I know for certain that this was not true. People have compared your gameplay to Russell, but I disagree with this. Yes you made and broke bonds, yes you were strategic, and yes you axed people to only further yourself, but you are in no way a villain. I understand your move to get me out, but I was aligned with you more than you probably realize. I was honestly willing to go far with you, but I guess that wasn’t part of your agenda. My question for you is, were you ever planning on going at all further with me in this game? The way I went out is like a dagger in my back. I feel a little duped, bamboozled, and smeckledorfed, but I know that you are actually a great person. Good luck tonight and don’t let the uncalled for bitterness of other jurors bring you down.

It was so nice getting together so early in this game because I felt like I was able to trust you with everything. You were great at strategy, understanding of my move to take out our ally, and was able to continuously be a pleasant human being to deal with (unlike a certain juror). It sucked being split up at the swap, and I was so happy to reunite at the merge. Too bad it was cut short when I was voted out right away. Strangely, being voted out didn’t hurt me so much, but something else did. The discovery of the Elder’s Alliance. I’m aware Martynas and Will were leading it, and I understand why I wasn’t added, but there is something that I don’t understand. Why didn’t you ever tell me during the game about this alliance? They were using me the whole game until the double tribal council, and you didn’t tell me even though I thought you were my closest ally (and I thought I was yours as well). This turned out to be false as well as I later found out that you considered Will your closest ally. If you had told me in game about this alliance, and explained why I wasn’t added, I would be fine right now. It hurts that I was deceived by my entire tribe, along with my biggest ally in the game. Now with that out of the way, I know that you had a tough game after I was voted out and you need to be commended for that. You were stuck in the minority, only surviving because the majority had other priorities. You found cracks in the strong four person alliance of MJ, Hanne, Amelia, and Jessica, and ran with it. Your gameplay got you to the end and you should be proud of that. Though not everyone may have listened to your ideas, you made it work, and here you are. Congratulations on pulling out that final immunity win as well, as I’m almost certain it’d be you on the jury and not Jessica.

Playing on Greece was so fun! Good luck to everyone, sweet dreams to all, and may the best man or woman win.
