Tori:  she gave me a john cena meme, so I gave her my vote

The vote is now 2 votes Ashley and 1 vote Randy

Andrea its time to vote

Andrea:  Randy, Ashley it's been a great run. I enjoyed the game with you both to be honest. Ashley you were one of the people I first talked to in the house, and we got to experience a little chit chat between eachother about BBCAN. It was nice to actually be interacting with someone for once, but eventually I kind of just grew distant and talked to other people. Randy, I swear you're a very interesting individual. As far as im aware, you've never lied to me in the game, and I respect you for that. I was a bit bummed to find out when POV was used where I was put up, that it was known I was going to be a renom. I also understand though that it's all part of your game.

Benjamin:  

Ashley... Randy...

My fellow jurors and those of you who were unable to make it jury...

Before I place my vote, i just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful season. We've been through a lot. Like that Tr*ple Evi*tion, Sur*ivor We*k, Nicole's HOHs. This season has definitely been wild. But I enjoyed every minute of it. I want this season to end on a good note and I don't want anyone to be mad/bitter with each other cause we all did well. Also, i want to thank the hosts for the oppertunity to play this season and putting together this season. We played, slayed, and fought the game away. I walk away from this game happy with the outcome and, hopefully, with new friends.

Kylie: We had an f2 agreement more recently. And if I hadn't sucked during that last veto I'd probs be next to her right now. Randy and I have had an alliance from the beginning. But that broke as soon as he voted me out during survivor week like it was nothing. I saw the screen shots of the chat where Nicole "convinced" him to vote me out. She mentioned it and he did it no problem. So yeah. That's why when I bought myself back I was on a mission to give him a taste of his own medicine. And tbh I'm still saltier than the Dead Sea about his progress in the game. So. #downwiththegrandrand

JURY, YOU CAN NOW VOTE! YOUR VOTES ARE DUE, TOMORROW, May 3rd, @8:30EST!!! NO EXTENSIONS WILL BE GRANTED!

Please feel free to give a voting confessional of sorts. Please note, these will appear BEFORE the vote is revealed, so do not make it too obvious who you have voted for!

[bbhouseofshadex-blog]

Its time to see how Ashley and Randy answered their jury questions.  

So lets start off with how Ashley answered her jury questions

Brooke

Ah Brooke, lbr your voting Randy and that’s fine you guys are friends and I respect that. What I don’t respect is you trying to imply in your question to me that I didn’t do anything independently and then try to make it seem like Randy had a hand in everyone in jury. Utter bullshit. Anyways, to answer your question I think saying “independently” is not the best word. No one can play this game and play independently, they need people to help carry out their moves. But certain decisions did come down to me having to make up my own mind. There were many votes in this game where I was the deciding vote. As early as when Jonathan and Tori were on the block and Randy was pressuring me to vote out Tori. But I decided to be “independent” and keep her to help MY game. Then there was when Adam and Ben were nominated and Kylie was willing to vote out how I was going to vote, yet I decided to keep Ben to help my game and keep my f2. Then there was Nicole, I could have kept her. But I wanted her gone because she was a #compqueen. I had an alliance with her and randy at that point but I “independently” decided to get rid of her, even though randy was campaigning hard for her to stay. Finally, there was survivor week when I came up with the plan to get Randy and Nicole to flip on Mike. Even though Nicole ended up lying I still drove a wedge with Randy and Mike/Kylie. Anyways, have fun voting for Randy.

Ari

#RobbedQueen “isn't senpai some asian porn thing”

Tori

X= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77Sg-Je6qR8 (74.87)

Andrea

Probably Ari. She was robbed in that triple eviction and won the veto yet decided to save someone else. I truly believe that if it wasn’t for that triple eviction she would have made it so much farther, possibly winning the game.

Adam

Hi Adam! Well I’m sorry your so bitter for being evicted, even though I wasn’t the one that nominated you. And I’m sorry you do not respect my game, but it was the best game I could play for this certain season. I’m glad you can play a game without having to lie, I respect it.. but this is Big Brother. I wouldn’t say I was playing both sides; I was not aligned with other side nor would I say I was leaking information. I was only aligned with Randy. I gave Randy information that he basically already knew in order to gain his trust. Its not like I was sending him things you would say by any means. Perhaps I did not explain myself well in my speech. Randy considered me a “spy” but I made him see me that way so that he thought I would be useful to him. Also, I did chose you guys over Randy many times. I voted out Jonathan over Tori even though I was being pressured by Randy to keep him. Same goes with when Nicole was evicted. I could have kept her and been good with her and Randy but I chose our alliance (what was left of us) over them. Do you recall when I told you early on that I knew about the Mike, Constance, Nicole, Kylie and Randy alliance? I didn’t tell you who told me but it was Randy. I had already known for a while but decided to tell you that information then, because I started to talk to you more and trust you.  I did what I had to do in order to not be targeted by anyone. Knowing Randy was aligned with the other side meant that he would keep me safe. Which is why I wanted him around. But I definitely wanted our alliance to stay over them. I never wanted you get evicted that week but when it came down to it, I chose my F2 with Benjamin instead of a F3 with you and Kaitlyn. And I would do it again. If you don’t understand why I would keep a F2 over a F3 then I don’t know what to tell you…

So in order to answer your question, I did not leak anything valuable “information” back and forth other than that you and Kaitlyn were close which was already common knowledge and that you were targeting Brooke and Randy (again pretty obvious already). I do feel like I was loyal to our alliance. But had to make sure Randy could keep me safe with the other side in order to not be targeted. I was truly pissed when you were evicted the first time. Which is why Randy even said he was threatened by how close you and I were. When you got back I wanted to keep you safe as long as I could. I was loyal to Randy and to our alliance, but at the same time making sure I was good with everyone in the house in order to not be seen as a threat. In the end, it worked out for me since I made it to f2. Whether you vote for me or not I have enjoyed our league games together. #Ashdam

Nicole

Why am I so obsessed with you? I don’t know, you’re a queen and I loved hating you in this game. I’m glad we get along outside of the game! You really helped me in this game during survivor week, when Randy saw you flip on Mike (even though it was a lie) it made him go 100% against him. Had you not, Kylie would have probably not been evicted that week. Then there was when you lied again and I was tired of you so I called you out. Up until that point I had not really said who I was going for publicly, and when everyone knew I wanted you gone more people were willing to work with me to make that happen. Finally, there was when we decided to work together and “fake” fight in the house chat. Honestly that was fun tbh. By making an alliance with you it meant I was secure with you even if you won HOH. Honestly you’re a comp queen, and I’m jealous. You’re a cont.

Benjamin

BENJAMIN! I love you, thanks for being there for me when I ranted about so much. I don’t know what I would do without you. This question is kind of hard because it changed throughout the game.  For example, before Kylie left we didn’t talk but once she came back we aligned and I considered her important to my game. So this list reflects my loyalty to people to the best that I can. People knew we were a F2 and if we had gotten to F3 with you and Randy I would have probably taken you.

1. Jaiden 2. Benjamin 3. Randy 4. Adam 5. Ari 6. Kaitlyn 7. Tori 8. Andrea 9. Kylie 10. Mike 11. AJ 12. Nicole 13. Jonathan 14. Vince 15. Brooke 16. Ash 17. Constance

Kylie

Kaitlyn

Your question is very similar to Adams so please read my answer to Adam’s question first. Anyway, as you have said many times:

Unfortunately, I’m shitty at comps. So I have to rely on my social game. Like I said, I was not “going back and forth” I was not aligned with “the other side” I was aligned with Randy. I did not “spy.” I think the biggest piece of information I gave Randy was that we played league together. People could see that you and Adam were aligned already. As time went on I grew close with you, Ari and Tori. As I said to Adam I was truly pissed about Adam and Ari going. I do not consider myself a “snake” but if you want to see me that way then that’s your decision. Being aligned with Randy in order to be safe with the other side is what helped get me here.

Now to answer your second question: Why was I a well rounded player? Well comp wise, I’ll be the first to say that I am a comp flop, Iv said it many times before. I just can’t seem to be one of those people who can win 8 comps in a game. However, somehow I was able to win 4 comps which isn’t that bad in my opinion. I guaranteed myself a spot in F3 by wining that HOH. Now on to my social game, I was able to be in a big alliance “Feminist to avenge…” I also had a good relationship with most people in this game. By the time F8 came around I was aligned with everyone in the house. Even when I was publicly attacking Nicole, I was able to align with her anyways (even though it was not real on my part). These are the reasons I believe I was a well rounded player without He Who Shall Not Be Named.

Its time to see how Ashley and Randy answered their jury questions.  

So lets start off with how Randy answered his jury questions

Brooke

Really good question. This is a great jury, and I appreciate them all and their magnificent gameplays! They are all reasonable people, so I'm not having doubts that they wont vote for me mainly because I was in the alliance against theirs. I honestly hauled ass on these questions, and  hopefully they don't see me as a crazy bimbo who was part of their eviction. But rather as a little piece of shit who worked really hard to get where he is now.

Ari

Honestly, now looking back at this game. Not only was week 5 a mess, but I probably didn't even need to use my SPoV on Ashley.  in week 5, I was in a sticky situation. At the time, Brooke and I still had an alliance with Kylie, Nicole, and Mike. If I were to of saved Brooke, it mostly would've been a mess. I love Brooke, but she isn't the best at competitions. So keeping her would just be for her vote during evictions and not necessarily for my own safety. Another reason I didn't save Brooke, and if the hell double eviction didn't happen. Your alliance would've nominated me and her again. Why would I save Brooke if she'll just get pawned against me in order to get me out? I would rather of had guaranteed safety with my SPoV.

Tori

x ~ 74.8697

Andrea

My poorest move honestly is tied between two things. Messing up week four PoV and voting out Kylie during survivor week.

Week four was tragic. I got AJ out the previous week, so Adam was pissed. And I fucked up PoV which was my redemption to be friends with Ari and Adam.

Survivor week was hell. I wanted mike out that week, and he saved himself with his DPoV. It was between Kylie and Benjamin. I was aligned with both of them! But Nicole and Ashley told me Kylie so it wouldn't go to rocks,,, I didn't want to even vote. But it is what it is

Adam

Thank you for dragging me to the seventh realm of hell! Let me tell you a few things before I answer your question because there seems to be a #misunderstanding. 1. You said that I told people to vote for me when I made f2. 2. You noted that I said I floated during the weeks 6-8 to hide the fact that I was just a competition flop those weeks..

To clear that up. In response to number one, I have barely talked to jurors after their eviction. I literally went back into all of my pm’s and look to see if I said vote for me in f2! In which I didn’t find, and if I did say it I totally meant it ironically because I never thought I would be here. I did have some heart to hearts with Andrea and Ari, so I don’t know if that’s indirectly campaigning????

In response to number two. You’re right I didn’t float. Because I was working behind the scenes! During week 6, I told Mike to nominate Tori since she was good at comps and I speculated that she has been floating throughout most of this game. Week 7 I proposed a plan to Benjamin, Ashley, and Nicole to get Mike out (Nicole and Ashley went to vote out Kylie though). It did work, but he saved himself with his DPoV (but he walked right after, so it did faintly work?). And week 8 Nicole and Ashley fed me information of Kylie’s intentions, like how she would’ve renominated me if Ashley was taken off, and how she would’ve renominated Andrea if Benjamin was taken off. I used this information, and with the drastic help of Nicole everything went according to plan and Me, Nicole, and Ashley were freely off the block! And also shoutout to Ashley for feeding me how y’all were voting each week! It majorly helped me a lot throughout this game.

Now time to answer your #questions. in reply to “tell me where your loyalties were for every week of the game” I made a list! As I said in my opening statement was loyal to only four people of whom I would die for, the rest I was aligned with to help my own gameplay. And unlike Ashley I actually stayed true to my loyalties until they were evicted.

Week One: I was loyal to Brooke and Ashley Week Two: I was loyal to Brooke, Ashley, and Kylie Week Three: same thing as week two. Week Four: I was loyal to Brooke, Ashley, Kylie, and Nicole. Week Five: same as week four Week Six I was loyal to Ashley, Kylie, and Nicole. Week Seven: I was loyal to Ashley, Kylie, and Nicole. However I couldn’t risk rocks so I voted Kylie out. Week Eight: I was loyal to Ashley and Nicole. Week Nine: I was loyal to Ashley and Nicole and started talking to Benjamin, but I wouldn’t call it loyalty as he was more loyal to Ashley. Week Ten: Same as week nine but minus Nicole. Rest of the weeks: I was loyal to my one and only Ashley. In reply to “What was your biggest downfall.”

Game wise, whoever left every week did not majorly affect me. As Nicole left, it just meant I would win more competitions. But my biggest downfall was me being so extra in my speeches. I will be honest I’m a fucking slut for power and I probably abuse it without noticing it when I have it. I regret every gifs I have used, every character I typed in the speech. I probably should’ve kept it simple, but I was so anxious I let it go to my head. It didn’t make me look like a good player or person in general. And I’m sorry for whoever had to read those,,,,

Nicole

My biggest regret of this game is going to be #surprising to you all. I wished I didn’t go against Ari’s wishes week 4, and I regret not being aligned with her. Ari was totally the most well rounded player in this game. I’m sure she was close to Mike, and she was close to Brooke as well. If I didn’t fuck up week four. Brooke and I wouldn’t have been nominated the following week. And she might of taken me under her wing : (

Benjamin

1. Brooke  2. Ashley  3. Nicole  4. Benjamin  5. Kylie   6. Constance  7. Andrea  8. Jonathan  9. Ari 10. Adam 11. Tori 12. Kaitlyn 13. Ash 14. Constance 15. Vince 16. Jaiden 17. AJ I’m going to give an explanation too. Ashley was one of my top priorities because she fed me information that was very useful to me like who her alliance was trying to get out, and how her alliance was voting. The top 5 shouldn’t surprise anybody. AJ is at the bottom because he literally insulted Brooke by comparing her to a picture of a zombie after his ass got evicted under me and brooke’s reign.

Kylie

: I love Colombia so much! I have a house there and it’s in Bucaramanga which is such a beautiful little city that has so much culture to it. When I go there it’s like my heart is lifted up to a higher place yo.

Kaitlyn

I’m actually way better-rounded than the person next to me in f2 and here’s why.

I never relied on one particular person throughout this whole game. Due to my social game and alliances people like Brooke and Constance told me some information and I got to piece them together. And things like evictions really showed me where alliances are. See due to my adolescent and mediocre IQ, I got early on in the game that You, Adam, and AJ were an alliance from the way they talked to each other, and how they campaigned their ass off to save AJ, and how you all played LoL together. Brooke told me that Ari talks to Adam a lot, which got me to tell my alliance to target You, Adam Tori, Ari, and AJ as they were aligned whether it be directly or indirectly (they all voted the same way, so that’s a practical alliance to me). I was right about this assumption, and my alliance did work their ass off to evict those people. I told people like Mike to nominate Tori, so we can rid this alliance (in which he did!!)

My social game wasn’t used totally throughout the whole game as much as my “intelligence”. It did however keep me safe the first four weeks in which Ashley, Adam, Tori, and Nicole couldn’t say the same thing. You see I talk a shit ton during the first few weeks. The people who respond I try to build bonds with. I talked to key people like Constance, he brought me and Brooke into the power alliance of Nicole, Kylie, Mike, and himself. Since Nicole and Mike won HoHs and PoVs, and since I evicted AJ during week 3 I couldn’t really didn’t have a need on my social game outside of my alliance. The people outside my alliance didn’t really win competitions, other than Ari, and they would’ve nominated me in a heartbeat so I couldn’t really do anything with them. And my alliance got the other alliance out, in which I barely got any blood on my hands because I wasn’t HoH under Ari, Adam, and Tori’s eviction. This led to people thinking that Nicole was a bigger threat than me, when I was actually the person to usually say who to try to get out each week.

I’m very well-rounded because I used my social game to get to a good alliance. I was in a great alliance as it won a total of 12 competitions before it officially ended (Nicole’s eviction :C ). But there is way more than competition winning and social game, there’s persuasion. And I persuaded my alliance throughout most of the game. You see I called out the other alliance, and I also made up plans to get out a specific person each week. During week six I told Mike who to nominate, and he nominated who I told him to. The others in the alliance voted the way I told them to as well. How in week three my alliance kept loyal to my wishes and voted to evict AJ instead of Nicole. And also how Nicole nominated Tori and Jonathan as I proposed her too.

You see Kaitlyn, I am well rounded. I used my social game at the start of the game to get into an alliance. I used that alliance and told them who to nominate and vote out each week, in which they voted Tori, Ari, Adam, and AJ without it looking like I played major roles. And then I used my social game in the latter part with Benjamin so he wouldn’t nominate me for instant eviction.. And I won 4 competitions at weeks 9-12 to guarantee myself safety for those 4 weeks to be here in f2. So I hope that this fits into your description of well rounded!

Final 2, below the jury has asked you each a question, you will have to respond to the question the juror asks you, you will only have 1 day to do this as the responses will be due on May 2nd at 8pm EST.  Now get ready to face your jurors.

Brooke:

Ashley: did you do anything in this game independently, or was everything dependent on other people

Randy: how do you plan to win against a jury which is full of people you evicted

 Ari:

Randy: why did you not save brooke when you were on the block and had two vetoes

Ashley: what is a senpai?

Tori: 

To both Ashley and Randy: if x=3y+2 and y=√590 what is x

Andrea:

Randy:

What do you think was the poorest move on your part this whole season?

Ashley: Which houseguest did you want to see make it farther out of everyone and why?

Adam:

Ashley:

Bitter juror #3 here. You actually made final 2! Wow. I can't believe it. And you were working with Randy! Wow. If anyone has ever played a game with me, you know loyalty is the biggest thing for me. I don't like people playing both sides, if I ever did that, I wouldn't be proud of myself. I'm 100% loyal to my allies. It's either ride or die. I was like this with Kaitlyn, Ben, Ari, and Tori. I would have never turned on any of you unless it came down to it. I never play both sides. I thought that's how it was with you. And slowly I accepted that you were closer with Benjamin than me (idk why). But then your opening statement comes out! Wow! You were actually working with the enemy. Guys, I smell a RAT. And this time it isn't Randy! You certainly upset a lot of people. So tell me Ashley, did you feel bad leaking information back and forth? Or is this just an everyday thing? How important is loyalty to you? Show your work.

 Randy: I understand desperation. But is talking with the jury members to secure votes really how you wanna be seen? I mean I've been in the final 2 spot and I know how hard it is, but that's what jury questions are for! You shouldnt come to me acting interested in kpop, and then start apologizing for being blatantly rude to me at my eviction. Several other jury members told me you came to talk to them too! If you want votes you don't have to be fake and act interested. Why don't you just ask them. Might as well, right? Now that that's out of the way, let's talk about your actual gameplay! So social game on point. Messaging everyone, that's fine nothing against it. Messaging everyone, then not replying, that's another ball park. Also using the excuse "laying low" to combat your failure in a few competitions is weak. :/ Just say you couldn't hold your own those weeks. Don't turn floating into a strategic move. Know, that if it hadn't been for you and Nicole winning competitions, you would have been where I am. For you, tell me where your loyalties were for every week of the game. What was your biggest downfall? Explain.

P.S.

If I could vote for neither of you, I wouldn't vote at all because I'm 5 years old and petty. You better work for my vote.

Nicole:

Ashley: 

Explain to me how I helped you get to F2 in any way, shape or form. Randy:

(What is your biggest regret of the game?)

Benjamin:

Ashley and Randy.

Or Beyonce vs. Lorde, which ever you guys prefer. I started this game with you two by my side and in a odd twist of fate, the game is ending with two. Except, i'm in jury :| . Don't get me wrong, i'm proud of you both. Even though the game threw everyone for a loop, i firmly believe both of you deserve to be there. I read your opening statements and i'm impressed with both of your statistics and accomplishments. However, i need to know if you were genuine. So, i ask that you make a list of all the houseguests, excluding yourself, based on how much of a priority they were to you.

Kylie:

Randy:

what is your ideal vacation destination?

Ashley: could you show me your fave meme?

Kaitlyn:

Congrats on the final 2, but I am disappointed because I don’t like either of your game plays, at least from what you both said in your opening speeches and from what I saw/have heard. Coming into jury, I thought I knew who I would vote for but now I am not so sure.

 Randy:

I really enjoy well-rounded game play, where you win competitions when needed/if needed, play socially, the works. I don’t see you as a well-rounded player. You won competitions. Okay? You didn’t talk to me until you were campaigning to keep Nicole in the game during that instant at final 6. Yes, I didn’t talk to you either, but I’m not the one sitting in final 2 and needing to explain myself, now am I? I also pretty much knew where you stood so I didn’t need to talk to you, the only person that probably knew (almost) 100% where I stood at all times was Adam. I want you to explain to me why you are a well-rounded player WITHOUT mentioning Ashley in your answer.

 Ashley:

The only thing that threw me off guard when I entered jury was that you were “spying” in the early stages of our alliance. Now, I never say anything that I don’t care if other people know or hear because I don’t base my game on lies or snitching because I believe playing a truthful game is much more respectable than playing a sneaky game. I got to the final 3 without needing to lie once, so getting far without lying can be done. I’ve even won a game based on how I play. Before I found this out, you had my vote 100% but now it’s at about a 60-40. I haven’t decided which number you are, the 60 or the 40. First question: I want you to explain to me what was the point in going back and forth like that? You can play both sides without being a snake, so I want to know what made you think that was a good idea. Second question: Same as Randy, I want you to explain to me why you were a well-rounded player WITHOUT mentioning Randy. I do see you as a well-rounded player, more so than he was anyway, but I need you to explain it to me without mentioning his name.

 Once again, Ashley and Randy, you have only 24 hours to respond to these questions, you have until May 2nd at 8pm EST to submit, make this count.

Here is Randy’s Final 2 opening statement:

I really set the #bar for myself with this game. And I'm glad to of (I mean this in the most literal form of expression) SUFFERED with you all. I am sad to say that I had to take Ashley to f2 instead of Jaiden : (

(jk she deserves to be here!)

Ok, y'all knew this, but me and Ashley had an f2 since day one. So yay for making that dream come true !! But honestly I think I deserve to win over her for several reasons. I'm going to keep this #shortandsimple. So please ask me anything after you finish reading! (Note: I might seem like lying physiological bastard, but I played the game very well)

I made moves to help my own gameplay majorly. Throughout the game I won 4 HoHs and 3 PoVs. I quickly had my ideals set on the alliance that included Adam, AJ, Kaitlyn. When me and Brooke won week 3 HoH, we both knew we had to crumble this alliance and get either Adam or AJ out, hence why we nominated them. However, we saved Adam and Ashley in order to eliminate the risk of Ashley possible getting voted out. Another great move that I made was when I used my Scarlet Power of Veto! Kylie was obviously coming for me and Ashley, hence why she nominated her. Nicole and I talked, and she used her clever IQ to save Benjamin because she knew Kylie would renom Andrea. That is when I used my Scarlet Power of Veto to ensure Ashley's safety, and completely undermine the purpose of Kylie's HoH. Thirdly, take a look at my second HoH. When Adam left under my eviction, I successfully got Kaitlyn to be an alone wolf while keeping Ashley loyal to me as I thought she would leave me for him : ( .

My competition wins and mediocre IQ is another reason I'm here. At the end of the season, you saw that I won the majority of competition. This is because all the other competition beasts got out early or I was aligned with them. Once Nicole left, I went to win a competition every week! This did make me a major threat, yet sadly nobody could of stop me as it was too late in the game, and I was the only one really great at most of the competitions. My brain helped me in the early jury phase, I always overthought everything and it helped me think out tough situations like after I saved myself with the PoV and it was between Brooke and Kylie. I could've easily saved Brooke with my SPoV, but I figured what would be the point of getting them out, if they would try again?

This is the one thing I try to stress when I play these games. #SocialGame. I will be honest I was LOYAL with only four people throughout this game. Those being Brooke Nicole Ashley and pre-buyback Kylie! When week 3 came around, Constance came to me and we formed an alliance with Brooke, Kylie, Nicole, and Mike. This alliance proved to help me, because through weeks 6-8 I got to slack off as Nicole and Mike kept on winning competitions. Making me fade back into the background, and made them bigger threats. This proved worthy as Nicole was evicted during second f6 due to the fact that she was aligned with me, and she was a #compqueen.  But before I get into my most important alliance. One of my most proud achievements is that I was never a Post-Veto nominee. And one top of that I was only nominated two times throughout this whole season. With the first nomination trying to get me out, and the second nomination not really meaning anything because it was F4 by then. And I also saved myself from both nominations by winning PoV!! I honestly loved that I was never a Final nominee because that means I voted for every eviction except for 2 out of my 4 HoHs.

The most important alliance I have ever had. Was Ashley! I kept her safe throughout pre jury as my major alliance talked about nominating her yet didn't do so. In return, she did the same thing for me in the latter jury phase. We fed each other information, and we worked together to solve whatever obstacles we had in the way. Honestly we're both iconic.

So in conclusion. All my HoHs went my way as whoever left under each HoH didn't affect my gameplay in any sort of manner. My PoVs are proof that I can face adversity and get myself out of #StickySituations. Alliances were the major reason that I wasn't nominated more than 2 times  the whole season, with me never being a final nominee. I pretty much floated after my second PoV and stole the kill at second f8. I urge that you ask very good questions to both me and Ashley. I played this game extraordinarily well! And I think I deserve to win because while people saw me during the game, they really never took any major action to try and get me out. Also whoever I saw as a threat either I or my alliance got them out for me <3

I took Ashley to f2. Because I am a loyal shithead, but without me. She wouldn't be gracing y'all
