EXIT SPEECH
Coming into this game I had the mindset that whoever plays the best game deserves to win. I had no intention of letting personal decisions sway my views and hoped that other people would feel the same too. How wrong was I....:joker:
I'd like to start by saying that my strategy was to ally with Jack_ and make it to the end with him without being detected. That was an impossible mission and it was always going to end up as a I disaster. He told me everything I needed to know about the Icona Pop members and what they were saying. He also informed me that Kate nominated myself and Pete at Top 13 (or was it 14) but because Cuda got evicted and I got a golden key, she replaced me with Jemal(?). So that's the reason why I nominated Kate and Drew during my first HOH, mainly because Kate was a comp threat and Jack was pushing for Drew to be nominated because he didn't know where he stood with alliances and suspected that Drew/Jake would take him to the end and then backstab him. So Jack evicted Drew that round, but he still stayed, cos my target was Kate and I wanted her gone, even though I liked her as a person - it's a game. Then when Sam discovered the Icona Pop alliance of Shaun, Kate, Drew, Jake, Jack and Nat, I took it upon myself to make an alliance with Sam, JC, Pete and Loukas as we were not included in the 'Icona' social group. Then when I surprisingly won HOH at F10, I put up 2 of their members, and then a 3rd when Drew won POV. Jack was once again pushing for Drew to be the target, but my original plan was always to backdoor Shaun as he was the best comp player. So when Drew won POV, Jack had to settle for Shaun being out instead.
Jack told me to make an alliance with him and Jake, and I agreed. But I knew deep down it would not work out, since I knew Jake was gunning for me. But I went along with it for the time being. Then when Drew won HOH and put me up, all the Icona, members thought they had me gone for good. But Jack saved me with POV and I thank him for that so much, as he risked a lot doing it. I think it was a stupid move on his behalf to re-allign with Drew/Jake who were still pissed at him for saving me with POV. Then Drew offered an alliance to me, which I accepted, but we all know how that turned out... and now I'm out of the game :laugh:
Parting words for each individual:
Drew - What can I say, you were my biggest rival in this game and you've BY FAR played better than anyone else in this game. If you don't win it'll be a travesty, but that doesn't necessarily mean I want you to win :laugh: I can't wait to play another game with/against you, as you're a top dude.
Jake - Similar to Drew, you've played a good game. I didn't appreciate you not telling me before-hand that you were putting me up as I was actually starting to consider you as a good friend in this game, but eh-well, it's part of the game I guess. Obviously your intentions were to stick with Drew and carry each other til the end, so bravo to you as well. I look forward to participating in TIBB Coach Trip 2 as well ;)
Pete - I'm so glad I decided to play this game because I've made a great friend on here and that's you :) You've been loyal to me since Day 1 and I wish you more luck than anyone else in this competition, you definitely deserve to still be here and it's a shame we got put up against each other. :love:
Loukas - Hmm„ you're, a tricky one because I could never tell whether you were being genuine with me or not. But I have made a great friend in you on here and I hope we can continue to be friends outside of this game :) And thanks for not voting me out.
JC - You don't deserve to win and you've just rode coattails to get here, but good luck in this game anyway. It's just a game - remember that. Cos you won't last much longer if you continue the way you're playing *hint hint*. No hard feelings?
Nat - I don't know you AT ALL cos you never spoke but good luck for this game, I think you have a good chance of winning if you interact a bit more, just be careful your Icona members don't turn on you.
Jack - Dude, I know I was a little harsh on you earlier, but obviously you must understand why I was so frustrated as you were the last person I would've EVER voted out, no matter what the circumstances were. I'm mad you voted me out to 'please other people' but at the end of the day it's a game and I wish you the best of luck in it. You're one of my closest friends on here and to fall out with you over an off-season game would be stupid. I wish you tons of luck in this game and I can't wait for BBCAN to start so I can discuss it with you Daily :D
To all the players left in this game, good luck and may the best gameplayer win! Hopefully I'll see some of you again for Season 10,:grin2:
