How come nobody asks me about my personality!?
Hello Sofia and Sam. Welcome to teh finale! *throws confetti*
So, not gunna lie, it's going to be a little hard for me this vote because I was really on the outs of this game. I kept fighting my way in, but I just couldn't do it, and that has left me with a very skewed view on this game. I've been reading all your other responses and I've been learning as I go inside the Jury House, but I'm still getting strange pieces of the big picture.
Sam, you went to the F4 unnominated. Yas! Werk, Slay!
Sofia, you won the final Power of Veto, and the final Head of Household. Yas! Werk, Slay!
So, I'm going to have some probably lesser-important and more ego-based questions, but I assure you I'll be keeping a close eye on you guys throughout the finale!
Question One: Was I simply unlucky in not being invited to the alliance of the season, or was there more I could have done amidst campaigning for my life every week to improve my game?
Question Two: Give a pro and a con of every Juror's gameplay, whether it be a social or strategic aspect.
Question Three: Why should you be the fifth winner of Rise and Fall (seeing as Estelle won twice <3 luv u bae ;D) and why should your fellow opponent NOT be?
Question Four: Create a Pornography Title for the downfall of each Juror. For example, Francesca from Survivor could be "Black Goddess gets Fucked by Old Obnoxious Annoying Black Dude for Second Time Because He's A Douche"

Well HELLO! Now I see why Britt liked her some Lukey!
Like me you weren't invited to the first alliance. To the credit of the people aside from Sam who were in the first alliance they seemed to be the most active at the beginning. I know when I signed on the first couple days I saw Brian, Sarah, Brittany and Zach around a lot. Sam getting invited was because he was the first HOH and that gave their alliance power from the start and kept them all safe Week 1. He was a necessity add in my opinion. As for the UN alliance I think a big part of why Sam and Zach jumped ship was because they didn't like Brian and they believed that you were working your way in with Brittany and Sarah and that you had a deal with them. I don't think you could have been included in the UN because of that no matter what you did because the suspicion was there with the boys. I think you were destined to be the outsider fighting to stay and there was always an ongoing fear that you'd win a competition and shake things up and that's why you were targeted to go.
Sarah's pro was that she was social and liked enough to be brought into an alliance at the start to help keep her in the game to the Jury stage. Her con was that I don't think she was social enough with Zach and Sam and that's why they decided to leave that alliance and boot her out when I asked them to. I can't say I know much about the inner workings of her relationships with them so I won't pretend to! Your pro was that you were a fighter in competitions. Your con is also the same thing. If you didn't look like a big threat while also being on the outside then I think you could have lasted. Your position was a double edged sword in a way. It was a bad hand for you! Brian's pro was dragging people into an alliance Week 1 even though they were kicking and screaming in their heads LOL. Brian's con was that nobody liked him enough to really work with him or keep him around. Zach's pro was that he was social, strategic and competitive. He had it all working out for him. His con was not making more one on one deals and instead only having the two groups and Neda. Brittany's pro was the she was the sweetest specimen the game had to offer but her con was that she wasn't great in challenges. She wasn't able to set the game up how she wanted unless it was through talking with others. Mike's pro was that he was great at endurance and he was more likeable than Brian. His con is that he was never able to get his footing in the game until almost mid Jury.
I should be the winner of Rise and Fall because unlike my opponent I can say that I made decisions without being swayed in any direction. I did what I wanted to do. I always did what I thought would better MY game. I put myself above my alliances knowing that in the end only one person could win. If I thought going one direction was bad then I would do what I felt was right in diverting my path and trying to make a change. I was observant and analyzed situations even through my crazy and over the top commentary. When you join a game you should have fun and not take it so fucking serious too. Sam not signing on for a day and a half because he didn't want to face drama tells me he wasn't having as much fun. He should have owned the decision he made just like me. I had fun from start to finish and I tried to make the game enjoyable for myself but also entertaining!
