KYLEEEEE LOVE It’s been so LONGGGG and I’ve absolutely missed you! <3 <3 Amazing smexy video and LMAO classic drunk Kyle we love to see. You're gladly excused ;) Anyway, thanks so much for the compliments, the memories, and your questions. Appreciate it heaps. And happy to entertain!

So in regards to your first question, what makes me not a goat? What makes me not a goat for not even a large portion of the game is that I actually had a lot of choice due to my social conversations with others, and I wasn’t tied to a particular group or a particular alliance, which goats usually are. For example, at Final 11 I could have worked with you and Evan, or OG Sarlag and Gatsuur. At Final 9, I could have worked with Ruth, Jacob, and Megan or with OG Sarlag. At Final 7, I worked both sides with Tal, Evan, and Ty, and with Logan and Carlo. And at Final 6, I could have easily worked with Evan and Ty, or with Logan and Carlo. Plus, I also had Tal vote with me for some Tribals. But I am aware that some jurors can’t completely see how many options I had, and on prima facie saw me as a goat for most of the game instead. Therefore, I tried hard to combat that perception, which leads me to your next question.

So what was a move or elimination that I impacted or orchestrated, where if it wasn’t for me, the outcome would have changed? One of these moves is definitely the vote for Ty. And my social game had an impact on strategy here, where I have opened up so much as Evan and Ty were willing to work with me on one side to vote Logan, while Logan and Carlo worked with me on the other side to vote Ty. This allowed me to obtain information from each of them with ease, and whichever way I have voted would have surely changed the outcome. This was not the position or a move of a goat, and this extended until the Final Four where I also made a decision for myself.

And ooh boy, trying to be as respectful as possible, I have to answer your final question on why I deserve to win and not the other two people sitting next to me. What was their flaw? Unfortunately with Megan, some of her social game was off-point. She lied to me about voting Evan at Final 10, but she left me on read for almost three days after voting out my closest ally, sadly not bothering to check on me. She kept leaving me, and apparently other people, on read over messages that could absolutely give rise to a response. At Final 7 and Final 6, I wholeheartedly showed my willingness to work with her in long messages yet I was shut down, and she never even at least addressed my pleas in her replies. So at times the messages, or lack thereof, were really hurtful. I cannot see how her actions are social or strategic at all. On the other hand, I was open with absolutely everyone, an approach a winner should display. I was ready to talk with everyone to check up on them, even when we never appeared to be working together. I rarely ever left everyone on read, and I talked with mostly everybody about how the vote went down especially when I had to lie to them, even to Megan at Final 8. Despite it all, I was the one who ultimately helped her make it to the Final 3.

And with Carlo, both he and I were under the perception of being the goat or the puppet under some other players like Logan, and we both knew that. Carlo did fight this at Final Five but however, went back to being under the perception of being the puppet (even though it might not be true) at Final Four, to satisfy his own feelings and not the jury’s. That could be okay. Whereas, I knew the jury is ultimately the body that will decide our fate, and I had to please them. Fortunately most of my own feelings mainly coincided with satisfying the jury’s. I knew some jurors felt this “goat” way about me and unlike Carlo I did change it by turning on Logan at both the Final Five and Final Four.

Well so thank you so much icon! I hope you make the right choice and I’m damn excited to see you again soon bro! :D Love you too <3
