Since my finals were only a few short days ago, I decided to give you a "Côte" final. Most of the questions will be about my favorite subject, ME!!! So, good luck.

1. Explain to me Pre-swap Savanes.

2. Which jury member most deserves your FTC spot?

3. If I was sitting next to you instead of your opponent, how many votes would you lose by?

4. If I was in your spot, who would you vote for between me and your opponent and why?

5. Are either of you aware that I almost had Mike eliminated at F6 and F5?

6. What was your biggest move?

7. What was the logic behind the way you voted at my elimination?

8. Why did you guys think Tyson was gunning for Mike when it was actually me?

9. When was luck involved in your game?

10. Which pre-merge boot most deserved to make the merge?

11. One of you contacted me after Tyson's blindside, the other didn't, explain why you did or did not.

Alright, well. Once again, congrats guys. You played well. So thank you, thank you mods for making this a wonderful season, thank you fellow contestants for making this season interesting. Can't wait to see the result of this season, it was a fantastic one. See y'all at the reunion :D Thanks Zach, I'll answer these as truthfully as I can.

'''1. Explain to me Pre-swap Savanes.'''



Well, early on, like within the first few days, An alliance was made with Emma, Sharky, Riley, Isaac, and myself. It was evident right away that Isaac was a power player and overall, a threat to me in the long run. So, a new alliance was made with, Cassandra, Emma, Sharky, Riley and myself. At this point, we kept losing which was annoying, but we kept voting out the people not in this core alliance, luckily, the tribes swapped before we had to vote out one of our own and make a clear split in the alliance.

But there wasn't really a leader of that alliance because we always agreed on who to vote for, they weren't really the hardest decisions then.



'''2. Which jury member most deserves your FTC spot?'''



This one is a tough one, as there are quite a few great players on the jury, but I am going to have to say Connor. Connor was a great player, he was very strategical and knew the game very well. He also got "Idoled" out of the game which was a big shame because I feel he would be here had we voted someone else.



'''3. If I was sitting next to you instead of your opponent, how many votes would you lose by?'''



I feel that the vote would probably be 5-2. I mean you played a great game. Especially social. You were liked by everyone plus you had a great strategical game, so I feel like that's why you would win.



'''4. If I was in your spot, who would you vote for between me and your opponent and why?'''



If the vote came down to you and sharky, it would be a tough vote, but I would vote you. Although Sharky did win almost all immunities, your strategic game was very good, which I think is worth more. Early on, you and John had an alliance and got an entire other alliance to believe you were with them. Whether your intentions were to stick with them or us, it was brilliant in the sense that you were in both core alliances. You had options which in this game, which are good.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''5. Are either of you aware that I almost had Mike eliminated at F6 and F5?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">I was not aware of this. But before F6 tribal, I suspected it could be a possibility that yourself, Tyson, and Joan could get together and vote me, but at this point, sharky and I had made an alliance with Justin so it would be tie. If justin was part of your plan, well then i had no idea and there was nothing I could have done.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''6. What was your biggest move?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">My biggest move was deffinately blindsiding Cass. I feel it gave me power in our alliance, and more or less saved our alliance. I took out a driving force in the careers alliance and got our numbers 1 higher.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''7. What was the logic behind the way you voted at my elimination?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">Well, as you are probably aware at this point, I was the one who voted you that tribal. I mean, I said it earlier, you had it all. You had a very good strategic game, a very good social game, and you were good at challenges. I thought if you made the FTC you would win for sure against me. Plus, you are good at challenges and I did not think had you won immunity that you would take me.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''8. Why did you guys think Tyson was gunning for Mike when it was actually me?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">Well, Sharky and I had received information which may or may not have been true that Tyson was gunning for me. which makes your game even better because honestly, had we known it was you, we most likely would have targeted you.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''9. When was luck involved in your game?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">There's no way anyone can make FTC without any luck. So yes there was luck involved in my game. Firstly, when the tribe switch happened, I had the right people on my tribe to make my move, being 2 careers and 2 our alliance (idk what we call ourselves). Secondly, I'm lucky I had an alliance with John early on, cause had i not, I would have been a early merge boot. Also the fact that sharky won immunity all the time was lucky, as we controlled the idol cave, and our target never won.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''10. Which pre-merge boot most deserved to make the merge?'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">This hands down has to be John. John was a great player who had the merge in sight, and maybe even FTC, but unfortunately because of a self vote, he didn't make it. Which is very unfortunate.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">'''11. One of you contacted me after Tyson's blindside, the other didn't, explain why you did or did not.'''

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">Well, I was the one who did not contact you. I felt after the Tyson vote, A line had been drawn and that by maybe contacting you, I would only be (i don't really know the right words to say), putting more salt in the wound. in the sense that I had just voted out your closest ally and then I come to you saying sorry or saying its okay were still in an alliance. I feel like that would have make it seem like I am being fake and would be pushing for jury votes.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:22px;">Well, thanks for your questions, I answered them as honest as I could. Good luck with your decision.
