Hey guys, congrats on making it this far. Start out with some positivity because this is an all star season, they are hard to get to the end in, so in that sense congratulations. I’m not going to waste time and write a novel long speech (thank you for those) and I’m going to jump right into it.



First to address all of you, I think it would be stupid for me to base my vote off of strategy. I have been out of this game for so long and I don’t think I played pre merge with any of you, and no offense to the other jurors, but what they have told me from the game is naturally bias by their perspective, so it is really pointless of me to do so. That leaves me to base my vote off of social game, which at this point may point to how I’m going to vote.



Jared, congratulations for getting this far, but I’m not going to vote for you. We just didn’t talk in the short time we had together, and that’s all I can base this on.



Jamie. You and I played in generations together, and we had both messed with each other that game, so when I saw you on the cast I figured that there was no chance in hell we were going to work together. And that’s fine, sometimes you just don’t work together. I can respect people that I don’t work with. We talked a bit in the game, and it was slightly strange because we hadn’t talked in so long, but it was fine. You voted me out, and that is fine. I have voted for people in ftc that have voted me out before, so whatever, right?

And then the parchment happened. Yeah, you referenced in your speech, and I appreciate you saying that it was a really bad move because holy crap was it a really bad move. In a game like survivor you need to be so aware of social game and how the jury in the end will see you, and you blatantly ripped into not only me, but several others that would also end up on the jury (if your parchment really was the one I’m assuming it was). That is something that you cannot do in this game because it is beyond a game move. If you had just voted me out Jamie, I wouldn’t have cared.

To clarify, I’m not holding this against you as a person. I don’t think you’re a bad person because of that parchment. We all mess up and do things like that. But when you mess up in the game, it comes with consequences, and for you that consequence is losing a jury vote because there’s a good chance I am not voting for you in this game.

But just like Jared, congratulations for making it to the end. Strategically you obviously did something right because you’re sitting there and we’re all sitting here.



Brett, we only played one round of this game together, and like Jamie and Jared you wound up voting me out. We were even in a weird alliance together for about an hour before results game up, but we talked a bit the night of the merge, and it was fun. I have no problems with you, and for me your social game was totally fine.

Because of that, there’s a good chance that you get my vote. And just like the other two, congratulations on getting to the end.



So, that’s it. I don’t have questions because I don’t want you guys to waste your time responding to me basically. If you have any response, or anything to say, I’ll read it with an open mind just like I read your speeches with an open mind, and maybe something could change. Congrats on making it to the end, and good luck to everyone.  </ac_metadata>
