10th and final vote...and the winner of Epicsbb 4 is
Now that the game is over, I'd like to say some things to our finalists:
To Amanda:
|
You were an absolute blast to watch this game. The confessionals were out of this world, almost literally with you chronically your adventures in different countries while on vacation. The dedication you brought to this game, answering most of the FTC questions from an iPhone, the incredible Fanfic you wrote and consistent challenge performances was stellar. I could feel the conflicts you were having every round and you painstakingly thought through every decision and move you made. Although you lost a bit of control after Kim left ironically enough, you managed to stay in and make the finals to win it all. Now you are no longer in Julie's shadow, congrats!
|
To Erik:
|
Your gameplay was underrated! You were 2nd person to sign up for the game, and I remember right at the start you being so eagar and hungry to play. It was fun watching you stumble around somewhat confused through a lot of the game but still pulling off impressive feats such as eliminating Kim and eventually Fabio. Your gameplay did become disappointing post merge however, you made up for lackluster gameplay with an incredible FTC performance. Were it not for Heather disappearing, or simply one person changing their vote, you could have taken this victory from Amanda. I am honestly impressed for an almost new player how awesome you did and proud of you dude! |
To Jerri:
|
I have the biggest statement for you. I know we spoke during this FTC and I've had to reserved my personal opinions until now since the game is over. You were 100% without a doubt, my pick to win this game. Amanda was in the finals only because you wanted her there, and your gameplay before that was the most aggresive and on point of anyone. Watching your struggle pre-game and your conquest to beat your placement last season and exceeding that was a joy. Your gameplay calling people out in public, the use of the Exile and the Immunity idol was another league above the other finalists and the other players in the game for that matter. Your game was defined by close allies such as Dick, Julie and Ronnie who either betrayed you or you simply couldn't save. I understand why you chose to bring Amanda because you did not want to be the reason for the breaking of another Final 2, and I am so happy you did because Heather went inactive anyway. It made for a much better FTC!
The jury was completely unfair to you. It is certainly true that you had the worst FTC of the 3, but much of the jury did not give you a chance.
-Michelle bashed you for your lack of socializing, then you went through the effort of screenshotting your conversations with her and pointing out specifics from things you learned about her from talking to her.
- Eric's question WAS absolutely intended to hurt you and bolster Amanda, and he was never going to NOT vote Amanda under any circumstance. Your unorthodox but brutally honest and direct response to his question was the highlight of the FTC for me, and it won you Yul's vote. Your game awareness was not weak, you knew you were a target at the Final 5 and Final 4 and you won the Majority Rules challenge which has its basis in game awareness.
- Shontayla was totally unfair with you, because your analysis of her was actually 100% SPOT ON, based off her confessionals and her posts on the board, she was pretty much EXACTLY the way you described her. Unlike Amanda Z, apparently she doesn't embrace her villainy
-Yul's criticism that you were pandering was completely off, and he rejected it after.
You did not lose this game because your gameplay was flawed or because your a worse player than Erik or Amanda. The jury deliberately hard on you because as almost all of them mentioned, they did not support your decision to bring Amanda. Since you explained the decision so well, and there really werent any other flaws in your game except for that one single decision, I feel they looked desperately for other excuses not to vote for you because they hated that move, and THAT is why for the most part the jury was rough on you.
I know you expressed to me after this FTC you were considering leaving the ORG community. I urge you to stay in it and keep playing! I know it's discouraging that actually keeping your word and bringing a worthy competitor over an inactive, hated goat who self voted twice during the game is looked down upon by the jury. Sadly, in life and in survivor, no good deed goes unpunished. Since the jury didn't respect the decision, I will say that I thought it was awesome, it stuck to your principles of loyalty and your disdain for being betrayed by Dick and Zamanda, it fit your story arch and personality and it made for a much more exciting FTC.
I have been in this situation many times, Jeremiah knows from the Final 3 of Warriors where I was Abi the goat :) in a Final 3 of unlikable and somewhat mediocre players who eliminated every worthy and likable player and then I played another ORG (States Wisconsin) which ended with an atrocious Final 3 where every worthy player was eliminated. It's a shame ORGs can be like that sometimes and I wish there were more players like you who don't scum out and only play the game for an easy win.
The jury did not give you the respect you deserved, but you got it from me girl! Keep playing and learn from this experience, don't let it discourage you. You're a true winner in my book. |

Congratulations Amanda, you deserved it girl!
Abi, your statement has made me teared up. I was so down from that FTC, and having you understand where I was coming from and recognizing my game means more than the Jury dismissing it. I hope the jury members will at least notice as well now that the game is over :). I'll keep playing ORGs don't worry! | |
