You Gotta Pay the Jee Fee if You Wanna Get in Da Happy Tree

[jee]

Well, congrats to both of you, I guess? This is honestly going to be a hard vote for me. Normally, if I'm on the jury my criteria is to vote for who I consider a friend:

SPOILER: Click to show

NONE OF YOU!

So I guess I'll have to ask some questions



Kalia, I don't like you. I don't like talking to you, I don't like what you stand for, I frankly don't like anything about you. I think your speech was phony as well as you. As I wise man once said, you're as fake as the things on Natalie's chest. I think a lot of the reason that you are here is Mad Luna's doing. Why should I vote for you when I don't like you or respect you as a person?



Mad Luna, you're a lazy fuck. Sure, you did great in the competitions. But where were you at the whole day when i was trying to talk to you? You could have at least made an effort man. This whole game, you've been just skating by socially, you're never on AIM and you take ages to reply. Why should I reward that?



To both finalists: One of you is Trump and one of you is Hillary. Please tell me which is which and why.

Hi Jee,

I don’t think you particularly have to like me, like talking to me, like what I stand for, or like anything about me to at least acknowledge what I have accomplished this game. You’re right, a large portion of my game did involve the “fake it until you make it” strategy, but that was a key element and how I was able to make it here.

You may deem my speech to be phony, but let me elaborate on some of the things that I touched base on in my opening statement. My social game was pretty on point, if I do say so myself. From the start of the game, I had several strong relationships which were able to keep me safe even when I was deemed one of the biggest threats. You stated that Mad Luna had a lot in getting me to the end, I would be a fool to say that my allies in general were not help in getting me to the end, but I was the one who was able to get them to trust me above all the rest. My strong relationships with people such as Jun, Natalie, Meg, Mad Luna and Frankie from the start and eventually Tiffany and I repairing our relationship were all huge factors in getting me into strong positions and allowed me to make decisions that benefited me more than others. Erika’s eviction did not particularly benefit that many people, she was very clearly after me above anybody else, and people could have used her as a sort of meat shield, but I was able to influence people to make the decision which I felt was better for my game. The same thing when it came to me being against Corey. On paper, I was a stronger social player than Corey (no shade, just based off who I was aligned with) and it wasn’t particularly smart for Mad Luna or Boogie to keep me in the game, but they both did because I had them convinced my loyalty was with them. At one point or another, there were at least 5 people in this game that would have put me as their top ally, or at the very least 2nd best ally. That was not luck. Being deemed as a strong player from the start due to the popularity contest win pinned me as one of the biggest threats in the game, and that was something I had to constantly avoid and I believe I skillfully did just that.

Mad Luna’s competition wins are certainly a reason why I was able to get to the end, however what he did with those competition wins often were to the benefit of me, and not others. Some examples include him nominating Tiffany when Tiffany and I were not particularly on good terms and she was one of my bigger threats due to how observant she was about my game in particular, him keeping me completely safe with his 2nd HoH, and him nominating every single person at the final 5 except for me. That was not an accident, and I think that speaks volumes on how I was able to make multiple people believe that I was their true ally. Some of those were certainly the case, but I think there is a lack of credit being sent my way due to how you think of me as a person.

My social game went hand and hand with my strategic ability, and I think that is why I deserve your vote. I think that you should consider all aspects of the person’s gameplay when casting a vote, not just what you think of the person who played that particular game.

As for your questions about Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, I think that I am more similar to Hillary Clinton. Love her or hate her, she certainly had a lot of loyal aides to her which were able to cover up some of the things that she accomplished in her career. Although obviously completely different circumstances, I think that my relationships with many people in this game and me low-key playing both sides of the house was hidden due to how close I was with particular people. Some people deem Hillary to be more fake and less transparent than Donald Trump, and from what you mentioned in your questions, I think you view me as that over Mad Luna. I think that Mad Luna is more similar to Donald Trump due to a lot of the criticism that he got throughout the game. He was often criticized due to him “not being as active on AIM” or “throwing competitions” and had a lot of things that were thrown his way.

No matter how you view me as a player or a person, thank you for your questions.

[Mad Luna]

Mad Luna, you're a lazy fuck. Sure, you did great in the competitions. But where were you at the whole day when i was trying to talk to you? You could have at least made an effort man. This whole game, you've been just skating by socially, you're never on AIM and you take ages to reply. Why should I reward that?

So, this is complete news to me. Hearing in on yours, Natalie’s and Jun’s questions about me be never replying on AIM I am genuinely shocked. I always thought I kept a pretty good repertoire with everyone in the game and that I had a decent social game. (Halloween + life became a frenzy, I’ll give you all that one).

I did have one mild regret in the game and it was the way I handled your eviction. Clearly I had my F2 with Kalia so you were the only other option for me to put up after Tiffany won the veto. I was intentionally ignoring, it was just a really shitty time. When I was finally able to sit down and have a chat with you I did intend on breaking the tie in your favor and sending Natalie home. Yeah, I talked with her and entertained the idea of keeping her, but when you and Tiffany came to me and told me she was throwing me under the bus I was dead set on evicting her. I think the way I handled our eviction was extremely unprofessional and I won’t be surprised if it costs me your vote.

I think you should reward my game despite my laziness because I was still able to make it to the finals even after all of that. My apathetic attitude could’ve been the reason why I was never nominated until Final 6 or my clutch competition wins that carried me in the final pivotal rounds of this game. I don’t believe I was inactive and I was never intentionally ignoring anyone. I thought my social game wasp pretty good, but I also wasn’t going around trying to become everybody’s Final 2. I tried to keep the perfect balance of competitions, social skills and strategy and I believe I didn’t under or over play in any of those departments.

To both finalists: One of you is Trump and one of you is Hillary. Please tell me which is which and why.

I’ll take on the role of the true God Emperor Meme-Lord himself and say that I was Trump. While some say Kalia could come off as robotic and fake, much like the loser from Tuesday night, I think I fell in line with President-Elect Donald J. Trump. Kali couldn’t keep track of her emails while I had trouble releasing my tax forms. Also ironically she’s more popular with celebrities and the KKK endorsed me. Another reason, Kalia made it here on affirmative action while my straight white privledge hindered me deeply.

Hope this answers everything!

[jee]

Thanks for the answers. Unfortunately, I'm still undecided.

I have one more important follow up question which may determine my vote. Answer carefully.

Remember this is an alias game. We obviously cannot monitor you but please respect it     

Do you think this rule was respected?

[kalia]

Well, I came up with an alias and stuck to that for the whole game, so yes it was on my part.. I'm confused to what this is implying?
