Board Thread:Season 44: Costa Rica/@comment-27668433-20171216021300

Alrighty hello finalists. I wanna start of my speech by saying how much I love this final three! After I got eliminated you three were my 3 favs out of everyone left other than Hesh! Some other jurors are probably give this final 3 crap and say you're lackluster but IMO you're all great and played pretty great games too! Anyways Ill start talking about you three individually, sorry if I go on for a while... yall should know I enjoy talking.



Morgan Im gonna start with youuu. Im not gonna beat around the bush so I don’t think its likely Im going to vote you. I think you played a solid game, but I feel like the other two played better and I feel like they played better socially, at least with me, and to me the social aspect is the most important, especially when it comes to jury voting. I know that could be controversial but its just who I am as a juror. And honestly you annoyed me a lot during this game, weather it'd be you doing the most random things, throwing certain people under the bus for little reason but yee. I think you were for sure lacking the social element the most out off all the finalists, and heck maybe even everyone who made jury, sometimes youd end the conversation after like ten messages. Also early merge i dont feel like you were that good. You were kinda transparent. For example at the CJ vote, it became pretty damn obvious you were telling Nadine everything so I started being really vague with you from that point on. But I will say it does seem you were a massive player from the final 7 onwards and you did great! Im still gonna read all your answers and who knows there could be a chance!

I will say some positives though. I really liked your cut throatness this season. Seeing people arrive at ponderosa and complain you betrayed them was pretty funny especially due to the fact they got warned multiple times you're such a flip flopper. I really enjoy watching crazy gameplay, playing with it not so much though lmaooo!

Oh also I wanna say something you mentioned in your speech akdakdk. At F8 I defo didn’t have alliances with everyone I feel like, just so I don't seem as messy as I probably did. I ha da F2 with Hesh. There was this silly deal with me/hesh/rhys/jon, but it was completely fake on everyones side and we made it pretty obvious it was fake between us. I didn't have an actual alliance with Joanna, you, Nadine (I tried to work with her and I did but rip) and Ryan (we were before Zak/Willow left but after that I felt distant from him and he was my original target on the round I went). But yeah sorry if this seemed harsh? I just dont wanna give false hope. Im still gonna read everything else you say on other speeches, but I think my likelihood of voting you is pretty low as of now :/ Anyways moving on!



Ryan, honestly I think maybe you played the best game this season idk? I honestly believe you and Joanna played the best 2 games this season no matter how much the other jury members refuse to give yall credit. I really wish I could play more like you. Early merge it seemed like you were basically passively playing both sides I feel like and since you were UTR not many people caught onto it. You were always seen as a threat but there were always bigger threats which kept you safe. Youre one of those players that don’t make big moves without thinking of future consequences and I feel like you thought all your moves out.

Anyways I kinda wanna defend you on some stuff people have been giving you crap for. Apparently you were "meta gaming" and it pissed certain people off which in my opinion is kinda silly. In season with returnees past relations is always gonna be a factor. I spoke about past relations, its hard not to, and its honestly kinda stupid if you dont worry about it IMO.

Another negative is that you apparently "whined" a lot. You never did it to me so I obviously don’t know if its true, but everyone whined at one point or another. It’s a game and things don’t always go your way and there's always going to be times you just want to bitch and let it out I did it so many times, so I don't think that should be held against you that much.

One last thing, this is the only thing I personally have against you. Im not really holding it against you, since I got over it a while ago but I wanted to mention it anyways. At times you honestly seemed pretty condescending and rude at me idk, you might not have realised but it felt like it from my perspective. Like saying things like "Its completely your own fault youre in this position" i mean tea! But its not that nice hearing it. And I think you said something like "If I was in your position I would never have voted Willow out" Like okay ty for your unwanted opinion! But yeh thats the only thing I personally had negative to say about you. I loved talking to you, and I hope after this we can get to know each other more!



Finally, Ms Joanna. Joanna you're honestly amazing I loved talking to you. Out of the three here I probably had the best bond and connection with you. You could vote me out 100 times and Id say thank you after every one. I think people perceived you as a goat but ever since I went out you’ve been in the top tier of who I wanna win. Strategically, I think you were kinda mixed idk. You had times when you were going in guns blazing and giving people hell, and at other times you just seemed like you flipped a coin and did whatever. But you really were a forced to be reckoned with and people are still underestimating you now tbh

The main complaint people are gonna give you is probably the fact you've already been eliminated. I've read some of your other responses and I really see where you're coming from. Ive been in a game before where I got eliminated, returned and made the end and had to defend myself. I think you did amazing for the hand you were dealt!

Also I kinda wanna reply to my part on your opening speech. I really wanted to work with you and go to the end with you but you just seemed to never want to give me a chance. I didnt want to vote you but you straight up told me you were voting me, and voting you seemed to be the only possible way I could survive so I wanna gonna do it lmao. I just wish we coulda worked together tbh since I adore you so much

So, Joanna and Ryan I'm soooo freakin torn on who to vote out of you two. I loved talking to the pair of you and I think you both played great games. While I was in ponderosa I didn’t think Id ask any questions honestly, but since Im so torn I guess Im gonna have to akdkadkad

So what I wanna ask the pair of you is ''' Ryan, why does Joanna not deserve to win over you? And Joanna, why does Ryan not deserve to win over you?''' Drag each other if you have to, I wanna see so much fight bc Im do damn god torn and its so annoying not being able to make my mind up since youre both so amazing!



ALSO Before I finish I wanna apologise to some people. Mainly Ryan and Morgan. In confessionals at time I spoke some shit about you guys, i dont think it was anything personal, but it was still mean spirited and I regret some of it! But you guys really annoyed me at times and I had to vent! (as u can tell im great at apologising)



ALSO ALSO ty to the hosts for giving me a 2nd shot, hopefully i didnt let you down! : ( I was hesitant at first to accept but Im glad I did since I met some amazing people ill still on contact with. willow, hesh, joanna, ryan all legends. Zak ur okay i guess. This was a stressful as fck season and Im glad its coming to an end! But its been fun! Congrats to you three for making it to day 39!! (btw i wrote most of this before reading anything else so some stuff may already have been replied to on other speeches, so you dont have to repeat yourself if you dont want to on some points i mentioned. i added some extra stuff after reading some replies tho)
