I NEVER had a necklace during merge and I ALWAYS stayed true to myself. I believe my game is the winning one

My tribe ran pre-merge and then I diminished my threat level from there, and strategically aligned myself so that I was never voted out with big targets like Saturn, Matthew and octo going down instead, and then rain used his idol perfectly keeping me in the game securing my advancement to the final 2, with both rainolds and floppa keeping me at f3 if either of them won final immunity

Hello jury! I started the game knowing a few people in it -- sohnmoon and cheesecake on my tribe, and Matthew1219 and TheAngelaMurray on the other. My goal was to manage those relationships from different friend groups to get as far as possible. In the premerge my tribe was terrible, but I was in a pretty safe position the entire time (I don't think I received a single vote despite going to 6/8 tribals). The one round I didn't get my way was when cheesecake went home -- I'm still not really sure what happened there, but I was able to rebound and make the merge regardless. Once the merge hit, I pulled all the people I knew together to take out Saturnia, a big comp threat and someone I didn't talk any game with. Sohn and Matthew ended up getting most of the blood on their hands for this though, which kept my threat level low. Around this time Times and I started working together on the side -- we both lied to each other but ultimately this relationship still paid dividends for me at the final 5/4 vote (when Sohn/Angela were voted instead of me). Overall, I'd say I played a very solid middle-of-the-road game. I leveraged the relationships I needed to leverage to keep the target off of me (regardless of idols or where the numbers ended up), which ensured that when push came to shove the votes weren't ever on me. I wouldn't necessarily call my jury management *perfect*, but I didn't make any deals I didn't need to or overplay and burn anyone unnecessarily. I survived 12/14 tribal councils, got one vote the entire season, and I think I played a game that's deserving of your vote to win. Thanks for a fun time!

Woo! I did promise to take Times here so I'm gonna stick by that. gg y'all.

TheAngelaMurray is running the game!!!!
