Heyyo jury.
I gotta say that I am honored to have made it to the end of this game. Coming in I felt that I had NO shot at making it deep withing this game. I was considered an amazing player, with the only othe 'huge name' player being Cole, who was on the other tribe. So right away I knew I was a target.
On the orginal flops tribe I was in the minority with Maxwell, Adam, Connor and Steve. Erik was supposdly with us as well, but he flipped. Anyway we got out votes all muddled and I voted for Kelly thinking it was the vote, but I didnt really worry because it opened up a door with Jake T.
Later Me/Adam/Connor manged to stay the next tribal and take out fellow minority member Steve, due to his crazy antics. It made everything perfect. Then we had the swap. I tried to get Connor to stick with the orginal flops allaince. I saw it as more divided and I was trying to stay low key. However I did not want to come out as a strong player until the merge so I let Connor go off and vote out Carson.
The next day was my birthday, where I found the idol. I was pretty tempted to play it during the round that Noah L. left, however I went with my gut not to.
Here I promised Jimbo that I would keep the game unpredictable and began targeting Clair. Clair was on to my game from day 1, however Matt lost every brain cell in his mind and tried to stir the pot. He ostrazied the allaince of Jake W./Me/Connor/Adam/Courtney and then most of us sided with the flops allaince in order to vote Matt out. I played the idol because my name went around at one point, and everyone knew I had it. Without it my target goes down a bit so id rather have it flushed, then get blindsided with it.
From here I was supposed to be the swing vote. Freshes+ Connor/Adam voting for Erik and the 'Flops' voting for Jake W. I however tried to convince them all to vote for Jake T. , who I saw as the glue holding the flops allaince together. Our votes got muddled however Jake W. saved us by playing his idol, and the Sierra Navada three sent Jake to jury.
At this point I was still after my biggest headache Adam. I felt adam controlled everything in our allaince, and would have a hard time beating him in the end, and I never could trust him. Because of this I talked Kelly into a duo, where I figured if I helped her take out Adam, she would help me take out Clair, the person who was most aware of the game I was playing.
It worked and Adam and Clair left back to back. Kelly ten tried to blindside me however, I had devloped really good realtionships with the remaining players and manged to survive. This was also the only tribal were I even got a vote.
