Hey, everybody. I heard from a few people that my opening speech was too long, so I'm gonna keep this one a bit shorter. I deserve to win this game. I really do. I didn't need immunity wins to get here. I didn't need hidden immunity idols. I only relied on myself and my intuition and my social connections. I think Emily phrased it greatly when she said "That's what Survivor is about; making the best of the cards that you're dealt with, continuously being one step ahead of everyone else, being in charge of who goes and who stays, and being in control of your own fate." But the reason my gameplay should be rewarded over hers is that no one expected me to be ahead of everyone else and to know everything about everyone. No one expected me to even make it to merge. For the way I was perceived, I played a nearly flawless game. Sure, Henry finally realized what I was doing and wanted to get me out but... no one would vote with him. He couldn't even get a few votes together to get me out in final 7 and final 6 rounds. He tried, but I was busy controlling the game. He couldn't possibly do anything about me being in the game and there was no way I was leaving because everyone trusted me. At merge, I really didn't expect to be alive in the end. But when I saw an opening, I took it, and I turned this game inside out. Without me mixing things up, the game would have been quite linear and we'd have a predictable final 3. Now, we have had the chance for some excitement and really any of us could take it home, but I want more than anything for that to be me. I've worked my ass off making myself seem trustworthy to everyone, and while I may not have succeeded in challenges, I didn't need to. I was perfectly capable of outwitting, outplaying, and outlasting without physical strength. Thank you all so much for this great game. For what it may have lacked in some areas, it certainly made up for in tribal dynamics, and I've had more fun in this ORG than I have in a long time. Thank you, Jury, for giving me the time of day. Thank you Emily for being such a great ally, and thank you Justin for this game. I've loved every second of it. Good luck Em and Hen <3 May the best woman win
