Board Thread:Season 34 - Cyprus/@comment-5357455-20160726124232

Hey guys! Just going to give a quick thank you to all the hosts involved for 1. Even selecting me to be a favorite, shocker right! and 2. Putting together a phenomenal season so shout out to you guys! Onto the cast, thank you guys for a great game and congratulations to you three ladies sitting at final tribal council. So I am just going to jump right to this and address each of you individually:

Shannon- We never really talked this entire game. We were not on a tribe together until the merge but even when that happened you ignored my first congratulations message and following messages trying to be friendly. I do understand that the real world is greater than this game, but even a "Hi, how are you?" would have been nice to hear especially from someone we could be crowning the winner of this game. I am not going to address the opening speech that you put up because I feel that it is an embarrassment to this game and yourself. You fought to get to where you are now: it doesn't matter if you were active 24/7 or barely here at all, you are in the Final Tribal Council for a reason and my vote is still up for grabs. So my task for you is to own your game. Show me how you conquered going from the last Malama standing to this woman sitting in the final 3 that deserves our votes.

Mai- I don't want to sound condescending but I find it very ironic when you say that we had a strong social connection especially in the early stages of this game. When we were on Troodos together, I would only reach out to you and usually without a response. You would be making alliance chats with everyone (trust me I knew about them) while ignoring my messages, so I just find it funny how you think that we had this great connection when you chose other people to socialize with over me. Moving onto your speech, in endless tribal councils you blatantly say that you weren't the one in charge or not calling the shots. So my first take for you is to tell me one tribal (or multiple if there are) that you were completely in control: you decided who went and you planned in to perfect. We all know about Stef's shield in this game, but I feel like that wasn't the only one existing throughout the merge. We all knew that you had an idol: but this was a shield for you. People would be apprehensive to vote for you because you had an idol you didn't even find on your own, the night that Jimmy left: I warned  you to play your idol because had Jimmy voted for you then you would have been sent home. So the question that will be coming from this is: where would you be in this game without your idol?

Ally- My little Robin Sparkles! It's quite funny how we were never on a tribe pre-merge, but once the merge hit we knew that we needed to work together right away. Our HIMYM, YouTube and Long Island bond just brought us instantaneously together. I made two final 2 deals in this game and one was with you (and for all of you who couldn't guess the other was Eva). I was loyal to this deal 100% and that was evident in the final 11 tribal council. The vote was for Alex and it was going to be smooth sailing, but once you told him then all hell broke loose. You became the new target just hours before the deadline. At this time, you were stressed and panicking but as it fell ever so perfectly: Eva and I flipped to ensure your safety. I felt like this moment I saved you completely: tell me how you impacted this vote and how you got past this tribal council on your own merit. There is no debate that the latter half of the merge you absolutely dominated whether it was immunity challenges or on a social level. But the part that was lacking was tribal council. It was apparent that you voted in the minority for most of the tribal councils (especially every tribal from final 8 on) so tell the jury how you were still in control despite not writing down the name of the person that went home that night. I know this might sound a little harsh, but when Eva left you had my back all the way and this is what I am doing here. I know that your played an incredible game and I want the entire jury to see that despite any "holes" in your game.

I have nothing but admiration for each and every one of you and would love to talk after the game, best of luck and I am looking forward to your responses.
