Board Thread:Season 23 - Greece/@comment-25438226-20150118055015

First of all, I would like to thank the hosts for such an amazing season. This season would have been nothing if it wasn't for your hard work, and passion for keeping the game in line. I would also like to thank my fellow contestants for making this game even more exciting and challenging, especially to those people who still took the time to talk to me although I did not have any game left at all.

Now, this is not really about me, so I'm going to try to set aside the way I played the game just to compare it to yours, because this is your moment guys.

Congratulations! You all deserve to be there. Okay...

MJ, we never talked in the entire game, and probably, the only time that I said something to you was when I said "Martynas is a real person, you fuck!" The only reason why I am voting for you is because we do not have any connection at all, you broke no promises, you never really lied to me, and there were no bridges to burn since there weren't any at all.

However, that is also the reason why I am not voting for you. I tried to rely on that strategy, because I believe that it's less talk, less mistakes in this game. I never approached you because I really felt like you have this mentality where you are superior, let me clear that up, we don't see you as a superior, we see you as someone who thinks of himself as superior just because you are in a power alliance. You are not the driving force of how this game went. Actually, that's wrong. You are one of the driving forces of how this game went, because the driving force can be anyone. So please, don't be such a full of yourself just because you made it to the end. Without the help of Hanne, Erica, Sora, Martynas, Jace and Eoin, you would not be sitting there, and that is the reason why I am not "a fan" of yours, because you have this superiority complex which is just so annoying.

'''Now for my questions. Please be honest, and please try to answer me respectfully:'''

1. What is the reason why you never stuck to The Elders' Alliance?

2. Why did you never approach me to talk about the game or anything at all?

3. What is your personal opinion on castaways with superiority complex when they play this game? Who else do you think played with that mentality from this season?

Amelia, out of all the three people sitting there, you were the one I talked to the most. You lied to me many times, but after every lie, I still ended up trusting you. In the end, when I thought that I could finally return the favor, it turns out that Jessica was also lying to me. I believe you need to make a really good argument to beat Sora in this game, and prove to us that you game is better than his because right now, I think he's the one on top.

Now, Amelia, the reason why I am voting for you is because you played a good game in general. You're awesome no matter what, and you're very kind. However, the reason why I am not voting for you is because I feel like you were with a power alliance and that made it easier for you to stride along the game. I know you can argue that being in a power alliance is a good strategy in this game, however, this time, I feel like you have been outshined by the underdog, and we all know who that is. I haven't fully made up my mind on that so I hope you'll give us a really good argument why you deserve it more than he does.

Now for my questions, I don't have to ask you to answer me with honesty and respect, because I know you will anyway:

1. If I would have told you that we were voting for you at the f5, would you have laid out your plan and tell me what is up as a gesture of apology for all the lies that you have told me in this entire game?

2. How different do you think would the game be for you if you were not aligned with MJ, Hanne, and Jessica?

3. What is your personal opinion on castaways who constantly lie although they do not really have to just to get to the end? Do you think you are one?

Sora, the hero of Greece, the MVP, the underdog. You have been telling me on and on that "at least, we got to go out playing how we wanted to," and I am just really happy that the game turned out good for you, and although you said that it wasn't the way you always wanted to play, you still did great, and I believe you still played in the best way you can. You had nothing, but you still managed to rise up to the occasion. Final nine, you talked to me and you told me that you needed me because we're in the same position, and I believe that's where our unique relationship is rooted from. We're friends in this game, but that never meant that we had to stop playing the way we wanted to just to stick to a promise which will be broken, no matter what, in the end.

The reason why I am voting for you is because you played the way you wanted to, and I believe, out of the three of you, you did not disrespect any of the people sitting in the jury. The reason why I am not voting for you? I want to say that it's because you failed a lot of times in this game, but I know that would just sound stupid coming from me. You made it to the final three, and I think that invalidates all the "failures" you have made in this game. Now, I am really trying to come up with a reason to not vote for you so this speech will not turn look like I am campaigning for you, but I just can't come up with anything.

Now for my questions:

1. If you knew about Jessica's plan, would you have done something to save me?

2. Do you think it would have worked out if I gave up the immunity necklace when you told me to or do you think I would have been voted out then?

3. What is your personal opinion on underdogs of this game? Who among the 17 other castaways played an underdog game?

Now, I have five more questions for the three of you, and though I kinda made up my mind, I would like to give everyone a chance. I always give my vote to the person who can give better answers and arguments.

1. I believe a castaway who can analyze his competitors' gameplay is a real winner, so what do you think is the biggest mistake I made in this game for me to not be sitting there?

2. I believe that a castaway who played with big moves is a real winner, so what do you think is the biggest move you made in this game?

3. I believe that a castaway who can admit his flaws is a real winner, so what do you think is the biggest mistake you have made in this game?

4. I believe that a castaway who plays with humility is a real winner, so give me a reason why the other two castaways deserve the title more than you do.

5. I believe that a castaway who made adversaries and allies is a real winner, so if you could pick one worthy ally and one worthy adversary among the members of the jury to sit next to you, who would those be and why?

Someone mentioned in their speech that strategic game is the most important. Well, I don't think so at all. I believe that in a game where the platform used is the social media, the social aspect of the game should never be underestimated.

Someone also mentioned that the point of the game is to Outwit, Outplay, and Outlast, the three of managed to do all that, but I also believe that it should not just revolve around that. If you managed to do all three and still be named as someone likable, you are more deserving of the title. If you managed to do all three and still be labeled as an underdog, you are more deserving of the title. However, if you did Outwit, Outplay, Outlast, and be a big jerk about it (there's a difference with owning up to what you did, and being a jerk about it), you don't deserve the title.

The votes have not been working out for me for the majority of this season, and after you give all your answers, I hope that the vote I will cast would be for the one who wins this. That is all. Thank you very much!
