So here I sit reflecting on the game after seeing the final 2 and explaining some things and wishing I did somethings different.
I still don't know how I am going to vote...I want to wait until all questions are answered (so I may be voting last minute since I am busy tomorrow but Amanda you can blame the final 2 for that
)
I started this game not knowing a lot of people...which did NOT help me at all. A lot of people had backup plans incase their alliance didn't work out and needed numbers, but I didn't really have that so in hindsight I wish I had played other seasons or at least PW'ed.
The allies I did make (ie..Brendan, Dan, Danielle, Todd) were all voted out early except for Erinn..and Rob doesn't remember making an alliance with me before he left Auhu so... lol.
Coming into the merge I saw how tight Feng was so I didn't want to ask any of them for an alliance, and people I saw as threats were Brett and Lex (OMG look what happened to them...FINAL 2...Bitch please I called it since like round 4) which is why I didn't want to align with them because I had plans of trying to vote them out because I saw them as my biggest competition to win the game...then in a twist of irony I end up needing them to stay alive, and unfortunately for me they didn't need me as much so instead of a lifesaver I got a kick in the ass out the door.
I was not expecting my demise to come so soon, because I was playing a non-threatening physical game and somewhat UTR so I found out I was a target a few hours before tribal council. I did not have the time to try to save myself so I couldn't. Looking back on it now, I should have begged Brett and Lex and made up some lie and offered them a final 3 and I could have potentially made it it to final 3 with them...or I could have went to Colleen and Kim and told them to spare me and go after Brett and that he told me their plans and that I would go against Brett and Lex with them.
Alas I did none of those things, and just hoped all the rewards paid off...(we all know it didn't).
I also thought I could get in with Austin and that clearly didn't work either (who knows Austin maybe if you worked with me we would have been final 2!)
I had thought of what I was going to do in the future rounds and was preparing myself, but being voted out 2nd round in merge was not part of that so I had to switch from thinking ahead to thinking now, and I was not fast enough. I aso didn't have the support or alliances to help me out so I was kind of screwed :/
What can you do. I will take 10th/22 as a comliment
