 “ The merge hit and you died and I was like FML so much for the big bad Tyler to use to keep the target off of me."

 Yes that is exactly what my goal was with those strikes. The first strike was an accident, but the second strike really did manage to take the target off of me. Along with that, since people started to believe I would just die off, they started talking to me so I would help them with votes. I realize it isn’t the most orthodox method, but I was in a really bad spot, probably the only time in the game where I felt I was in serious trouble of going home, but taking that second strike took the target off me and honestly, put me in a really unique position in the game.

 Everyone thinks it's the big moves that determines who wins games but can you think of little moves that you made that paid off in the end?

 To be honest, while I did make some big moves like voting front runner Brandon off, starting the massive argument with Rhiannon and Tatianna, and to many extents eliminating you (which I will get to later), I definitely made some little moves as well. After the first tribe swap, Aren and Johnny were sent to my tribe. When we lost the challenge, it was clear one of them would go. Aren and I didn’t really talk, while Johnny and I had. While I didn’t know him well, I trusted him. While the original plan was to vote off Aren, some of my tribe mates wanted to switch to Johnny and tried to convince me to do the same, I made sure that that did not happen, and as such Aren left while Johnny stayed. Another little move I made was at f7. I really liked johnny and thought that he was an underrated player, when it became clear that Brandon and brett were voting him off I started to think about the future, and voted for tatianna. That vote took any type of target off of her, and enabled her to flip to our side to get Rhiannon out of the game. At the final four, during the first vote, I managed to get Tatianna into confessing that she voted for me, making me realize that if it was you, me, and tatianna in the final 3, she wouldn’t be taking me if she won the immunity. This was really critical information for me and is why I voted you out. I know my decision was polarized, some people think I was an idiot for keeping Brett in the game due to his strong gameplay, others think im right and that she would have taken you out of loyalty if she won. Tatianna also sent me 37 messages after I won the challenge begging me to keep you, to me that was a clear sign of how she would have f*cked me if she won final immunity. None of it was personal and while we didn’t get along, im glad we kept everything to the game and never crossed any lines.



 One thing I feel like I need to address is Tatianna’s answer, most notably this line. “ I was responsible for Alietta's downfall, I put the target on Johnny and made him out to be a potential threat to win, I turned on Rhiannon, I turned on Brandon ” This is a prime example of taking credit for moves that someone else has made. Out of the four moves she has claimed she made, only one of them was her.

 “I was responsible for Alietta’s downfall” No that was all Brett. He played you like a puppet on that one and dangled you on strings. Everyone knew you were voting her, no one suspected that Brett would too.

 “I put the target on Johnny” No that was Brett and Brandon. To be honest I don’t even think you voted for Johnny that day.

 “I turned on Rhiannon” To be honest that was the only strategic move all game that you have the right to take credit for.

 “I turned on Brandon.” No Tatianna, I was the one who sent him home. It sucked tbh, he was a really good friend and I hope him and I could still be friends after the game, but he needed to go.

 Now onto the fun part 2B. This game is about to turn into my favorite soap opera off all time, Star Wars!! The amazing movie focused on how the rebels, Wouter aka Luke Skywalker, Alietta aka Princess Leia, Brandon Aka Hans Solo, and Kylo Ren (Me) fight to take down the powerful dark side consisting of the Emperor (Rhiannon), Boba Fett (You, Thomas), Tatianna (Count Dooku) and Brett aka Darth Vader, who eventually realised that the rebels were the better chance and escaped the dark side. There is also Marco aka Jabba the Hutt. Much like the real movie franchise, this movie goes parallel with it including scenes such as Darth Vader dominating 90% of the game, only to meet his demise due to two players less worthy than him, Princess Leia killing Jaba the Hutt, and most importantly Kylo Ren stabbing Hans Solo in the back. Along with all of these characters, in walks Bas as Chewbacca and Aren as Crewman Number Six.

 Anyways Thomas, I really do hope I have your vote. I know you and I never saw eye to eye, but I have so much respect for your game play and think that on a strategic level, I outplayed Tatianna.
