Hi y’all. I’m not gonna get into a rambly “oh my vote’s up in the air gee I wonder who I’m voting for” because, point blank, it’s not. I’m voting for Jerry, grats on getting my vote, you were my ally through thick and thin and barring some colossal fuckup I have zero issues voting for you.

Having said that as a whole, I’m gonna give you a little inside baseball - as far as I can tell, this jury is very, very swayable. This vote can go two ways, and this FTC is gonna be huge in determining who the winner of this game is. I’m biased in who I want to win for a variety of reasons, but I still want to address both of you because I think the jury as a WHOLE entity wants to hear more about a few specific aspects of each of your games, and I’ll do my best to make sure to touch on those.

Debbie: Debbie...oh Debbie, Debbie, Debbie. We had a wild ride in this game, and much like Mr. Bones’, after a certain point I wanted to get off. You made it to this Final 2, and against an opponent it’s possible for you to beat, and that’s awesome for you. After this game, win or lose, I’m not gonna have any issues with you. In this particular game? Well...

If I had gone at five, four, three, whatever - the only thing I could hold against you is your lack of sociability and inability to contact at vital moments. Which, while a PRETTY big thing, wouldn’t have been a dealbreaker for me. I just want to stress that I didn’t go into the game saying “whoever gets me out won’t get my vote” because that wasn’t the case. You made me bitter.

You were playing under the assumption that this would be a F3. The only F3 you had a chance to win in would be with Jenn and Jerry. You rolled your WHOLE game on the 33% chance that I’d draw the bad rock. And in the eventuality that I DID go out like that, you would have single-handedly caused a juror’s elimination that wanted to work with you and did NOT want to force rocks.

Did you honestly expect this wouldn’t burn my vote? Did you think I’d have some eleventh-hour realization and say “well, Debbie DID play the better game.” Survivor is a social game, and you screwed me. So now? Well, commence with the counter-screwing. (God this DOES sound like a marriage counseling class.)

My questions for you, Debbie:

1. Justify your flip to the jury. Give us a strategic reason why I had to go at that exact moment, even with the 66% chance it’d blow up in your face INSTANTLY.

2. A recurring pattern I had in the game was “Debbie won’t talk to me” or “Debbie is hard to get a hold of.” For me, I’d send you a message, wait an hour, get a response, send a message back, wait an hour, get a response - do you sense a pattern? Why should the jurors reward someone who was in general, a very flaky person.

Jerry: Jerry, you’re the fucking man, I mean that in every sense of the word. We were a fuckin’ dynamic duo, and I would have been so happy to be in that Final 2 with you. However, the jury doesn’t necessarily see it that way - to a lot of people, you were absent or not around a ton. I don’t really have many complaints, but this is something you need to justify to the jury, and I heavily advise you show them the effort you put in with me to make your case.

One point I wanted to touch on is the intermingled nature of our games. What is Nick’s game and what is Jerry’s game is a point of contention, and it could make or break the game to you. Personally, I viewed as a partnership with myself in the alpha position - I want your perspective. Think carefully before you answer my questions - you’re not just answering to me, your answering to the whole jury.

1. Where does my game end and yours begin? Was it a partnership, was I a shield, were you a pawn? None of the above? All of the above? Explain who did how much of the strategic and social lifting for our alliance.

2. Let’s say, hypothetically, Bobdawg goes at the Final 6. What happens from there? Are we going to the Final 2, or am I getting cut? If so, in an ideal situation, when does that happen?

And now, for the both of you:

Rank the jury based on their gameplay. #1 is the star of the season, #8 is the wimpy little non leader.

Looking forward to your answers, hope you have fun with them!

Thanks for the responses y'all, some interesting stuff in here. May disagree with some sentiments, but happy to read the different perspective regardless. Best of luck to both of you!

(Also if you wanna keep fighting in here that would be very entertaining JUST SAYIN'.)
