hi shapeshifters!!!

i can say i'm leaning one way over the other for my vote right now but it's certainly not set in stone

when this game started i thought we would be a lot closer throughout the premerge than we ended up being. before tribes went up you were at the top of my list of people i liked and wanted to be tight with. unfortunately i got the vibe you were just coasting for a while, and i had a hard time feeling like i could try and develop a strong game relationship with you. this changed a lot at the merge, and once maxwell was gone, i was all in on going to the end with you. i have to thank you for giving me a glimmer of hope that others kept promising me, but never followed through. you followed through and while f6 didn't go as either of us wanted, i appreciate that you made a conscious effort to involve me in your game. if i voted on personal relationship alone, you would have my vote on lock. that being said, i don't feel like i see a lot of concrete actions you made in the game, so i'm not sold.

i'm having a really hard time seeing how you were playing this game to win. you spent the duration of merge trying to keep a good relationship with me, constantly implying that you wanted to work with me and needed me around, but you never attempted to talk serious game with me. i can respect someone admitting i'm not the best option for their game and not leading me on far more than i can respect someone dangling a carrot in front of my face and telling me i might get to catch it someday. i don't understand how it was good for you to flip at merge and essentially replace me in an alliance that had existed from the moment tribes were made. your best move was an accident. i would love for you to prove me wrong, though.

i only have one question for you guys!

i consider the most important part of these games to be having a strong awareness of the things happening around you. it shows that you have played a good enough social game to receive information, and if you have the strong strategic game to back it up, it tells you when and what you can do to put yourself into a better position in the game. so, i have a little test to see who had a better grasp on this mess of a game overall. as we all know, the actual show survivor edits down the vastness of the game into weekly episodes. to do that, they need to boil the game environment down to its essentials, showing us what they deem to be the most important things for us to see, all while selling the winner as deserving and correct.

imagine this season were aired as a regular survivor season. what are the primary storylines (ie alliances, individual arcs, overall themes)? who are the standout characters, and how is the audience meant to feel about them? who do they root for and against? and, most importantly, how does the edit of the season portray you as the most fitting winner for this game?

i don't need a five paragraph essay here. make this as long or as short of an answer as you like, as long as it hits the points above. i'm voting on content, not effort, and i know the rest of these bitches are making you work for it. tag urself i'm ausenia posting a full write-up on loona solos

anyway good luck and may the best bitch win!
