Opening Statement
Alright, well this game has been one hell of a ride. I would first like to thank Dustin for another good season of Brawl, and I would like to also thank anyone who had a part of my experience here. It's been real fun
Sitting in the final two with Britney, scares me greatly. Obviously, Britney was absolutely amazing when it came to challenges. Britney was absolutely a great player, and she fought her way to the end... but I feel as though we had much different roads and took very different approaches to the game. So I am going to give you a rundown on my perspective of the game.
In the first weeks, my strategy was to be the worst coach ever. And luckily, it wasn't hard with players like Jase and Michelle. I felt as though the teams were going to be eventually targetted and I knew that as a past winner, I needed to do anything possible to get rid of that target on my back. And I think I was very successful in that mission, because honestly I don't think anyone really viewed me as any type of huge threat game which is how I managed to escape the block from week to week.
I made three big alliances early in the game that I used to further myself from round to round. I aligned with Neil, Danielle, and Britney... making final twos with each of them. I felt as though they were all pretty strong competitors, and if I could get them to trust me... it would help me advance myself in the game. And when Neil and Britney were battling eachother, it left me in the perfect position to float in the middle. Once Neil was gone, I won head of household and targetted two people who I felt like I had a weaker relationship with, Ian and Russel. And once Russell was evicted, I able to stay off the block by making both Danielle and Britney feel like I wanted to go to the final two with them... watching Porsche, Jen, and Ian take the fall. At final four, I knew that I had a really good chance at getting to the final two, I just needed to get there with someone that I felt I could beat... that being Amanda. Unfortunately Britney won the final head of household, and when I was given the choice to vote either Danielle or Amanda... I evicted Danielle because I felt as though she was just as much of a threat as Britney in finals... and I knew Amanda was my best shot. After I evicted Danielle, I made sure that if Britney won the final HoH, I still was able to sneak into the final two... though my odds wouldn't be as good. And even though I was unable to pull out a win, I was still able to secure my spot in the final two.
I played this game exactly like I did last time, I played from week to week... and I really tried to make sure that no matter... I was in the best possible position for the next round. I went weeks without being nominated, and I think I did a pretty good job at convincing people that I was loyal to them. I may have not won many challenges like Britney, but I feel like I played a much more strategic game and that's how I received my seat in the final two. And people may say that I don't deserve this spot because I didn't kick ass in every challenge and may not been the most chatty person... but with the circumstances I have been given in real life combined with just my skill in challenges... I did the absolute best I could and I am extremely proud of the game that I played... because I know that I was strong.
I look forward to your questions, and no matter what the outcome... it's been a great ride and I've enjoyed this game with each and every one of you. Good luck to Britney as well!
