After 84 days, it’s time to crown the winner! (Ally didn’t submit a vote)

I'm glad to of played with everybody here, thanks to those of you who sent in questions <3

Madison: 

That’s a great question, because I did think about it at the time. I didn’t take you out that week because I felt that compared to Jev I had a better relationship with you. I had already known you for a while unlike Jev. Jev and I didn’t know each other much. That week my targets were 1. Jev 2. Luke and 3. You. Also because you were a girl and I didn’t want to get rid of another girl early on in the game. I am glad Randy and I did not decide to target you that week or else #Madley would never have occurred.

Rhone:

Rhone! I can understand why this is a tough decision for you, and I’m glad you love me and Corey as final 2. Like I said before, I wanted nothing more than to have 2 Arson people in the finale. To answer your question, I was nominated 3 times. First during week 2 by Dan. I was able to convince him to use the veto on me, insuring me safety. Second time was during the triple when Josh, Joseph and myself were nominated. I made sure I was good and had the votes to stay, receiving no votes to be evicted. Finally, was when Jordan nominated me during final 4, once again I saved myself by getting Jordan to use the veto on me. I was probably going to stay but I made a huge move by calling a house meeting and getting Jordan to use it on me. In the end I received no votes to be evicted throughout the whole game.

I never felt afraid that I would be evicted because I am not afraid to lose a game. Not that I don’t care about it, but I feel like if I let myself be afraid of being evicted then in a way its like giving up. I always try to look for the best possible outcome where I can make sure I survive the week. The steps I took were to make sure people knew I was a non-threat, valuable to their game, and making whoever was next to me look like a bad option to stay. I made sure I talked to everyone and explained clearly why I should stay. Dan was the person who put me up twice and it was because we never really connected in the game. It’s kind of hard to force something like that so I always understood when he would nominate me, because I was always planning on doing the same. The fact that I never received votes and managed to get 2 vetoes used on me by the same people who put me up in the first place speaks volumes as to how my social game was.

Luke: 

Hi Luke! Thanks for thinking of me as a strategic player, that’s such a compliment to me. As for my plan in this game, yes my plan was for everyone to see me as a non threat. The truth is though, when it comes to competitions I am a non threat. I rarely throw comps, I’m just really bad at them lol. I’m still shocked I won that last HOH and super proud since apparently I wasn’t going to be taken by anyone. My strategy for this game was to stay under the radar and surround myself with people who were bigger targets. Yet I was aligned with a lot of people in this game, and I believe I had many peoples trusts. I feel like I made a lot of moves in this game that were on the down low like keeping myself off the block the week you went. But eventually I knew I had to make a huge move like when called the house meeting asking Madison to evict me. It was a risk and in the end it made me a threat, but it’s the move I’m most proud of.

Dan: 

You not liking the fact that I did not bring up your name in my F2 speech, ME... Anyways, Dan I actually found your question to be the best one yet. I feel like our relationship in the house was never strong. We would always casually say “hi” and like you said we talked about school or whatever. We just never really became friends or aligned together. On my part it was always because I felt like you would put me up, which you did... twice. Like you I always think I may need someone so although we where never best of friends we were always polite to each other. When you were up on the block with Madison is when you came to me with your plan to split up the duos in the house. I was all for it and was planning on keeping you. Unfortunately for you, Madison pulled out that ass veto. Getting rid Jordan was an absolute no for me, I was aligned with him and trusted him so I had to vote you out. So yea I did not trust you because you nominate me twice. But like I said had it not been for Madison using her veto you would have had my vote to stay. As for taking Corey in final 2 instead of Jordan. I actually think Jordan played a better game than Corey. And I believe I deserve to win over Corey because of the moves I made and my social game. Anyways, I hope outside this game we can talk, you seem like a nice guy and I never had a problem with you personally in the game :) 

Jordan: 

Jordan Pines… Well Jordan I think we’ve said all we have had to say to each other already. I do think of you as a funny (sometimes annoying) and a great person. Even though we ended things on bad terms. However, I don’t want to talk too much about that stuff right now but hopefully after you vote we can. 

Randy:

I’m putting this at the bottom because its so much. Obviously I cant thank you enough for your help during survivor week, that was YOUR week and I would have not been able to do what I did without you. You should be proud of that blindside. I felt guilty when Madison came after you because of that hasdkjhf. I’m proud of us and that stressful week. Anyway, I’m going to make each week a summary of what I personally did in the game. 

Week 1: Made sure I formed relationships with people and tried to set up alliances and bonds. It was the first week so I needed to get to know people. I instantly connected with Josh and Joseph, two people I did not know before yet they became important to me. I was safe thanks to Madison being on my team. 

Week 2: I was nominated this week by Dan because we had not really talked game and only had small talk. I made sure to make better connections with people in case I didn’t win POV. I grew close to Rhone and formed Arson. I lost POV (obviously) but was able to convince Dan to use it on me. 

Week 3: I don’t really remember this week tbh lmao. I guess it was a low key week for me, not much to say. 

Week 4: I had to chose between you and Benjamin which was tough. I made sure I knew who was staying before voting and I think this week was when I realized who I could trust. 

Week 5: Survivor week, I think you know how this week went for me. I was targeted and together we managed to blindside Luke, Jev and Madison. Obviously if it wasn’t for you Joseph or I may have been evicted. 

Week 6: This week was crazy. I paired up with Jordan because at that point we did not have a strong relationship. Paring up with him was the best thing I did because it eventually led to use aligning with each other. Also this was the week where Joseph and Savannah ended up on the block after being HOH. It sucked because I wanted Savannah to stay but I had no choice because I was more loyal to Arson. 

Week 7: The dreaded week where you were nominated. Really wanted you to stay but Madison was out for revenge! 

Week 8: This week sucked because Corey was HOH and I really wanted to get out a threat like Dan or Luke. Luke won POV and Corey decided to go for Ally instead of going for someone who was an actual threat. Not that I don’t think Ally is useful but she was busy with real life stuff and never around. 

Week 9: Double eviction. Dan won HOH and put me up (not shocked) I had to make sure I was good with everyone. I knew Josh was probably going but Joseph could have easily stayed over me. I campaigned hard to people and insured everyone votes. At the same time this actually helped me build stronger relationships with people. 

Week 10: Madison was HOH and my name was being thrown around by what I assume Luke and Dan. Madison told me she was thinking of putting me up but I campaigned to her and said that I would probably go. I knew she was really after Rhone so this ended up saving me from going up and had that not happened Luke would have been safe. 

Week 11: Honestly Rhone did most of the work this week by winning HOH and nominating Dan and Madison. Madison used her ass veto and Jordan went up. It was a no brainer for me to keep Jordan since we were aligned and I used my extra vote even though I didn’t need to, in hopes that it would help Jordan trust me more. 

Week 12: This week was the week I tried the most to win HOH, but of course, Im a flop. I was able to have a good enough relationship with Madison and she chose to put up Corey and Rhone. 

Week 13: I think you know what happened this week. I made a huge move and evicted Madison during Jordan’s HOH and POV win. Its a lot to write and I could go on and on about this week tbh. 

Week 14: I won the final HOH, and decided to stay loyal to the Arson alliance and bring Corey to final 2. 

Jordan:

Hi crab apple. So my original plan was to just post the crab photo and draw devil horns on you but nah. I actually am glad I got to play this game with you. In HOS9 we barely spoke until you got evicted. This game, although you were frustrating at times, we really built a friendship. In all honesty I was gonna take you to the final 2 because I wanted to win but I couldn’t just say that in the main chat and have Ashley change her mind on taking me. Yikes. I think you’re a really wonderful person and fun to banter back and forth with. I’m sorry that Ashley backstabbed you for me (not really that sorry tho) but I know you were hurt. I think I played a great game and you were part of it. Hope you’ll vote for me to win. See you at the reunion with your crab photos boo.

Josh:

Bitter, party of 1?

I guess I can drag you now since you just wanna vote for your BFF and not be a real jury member. Your “Queen” Ashley sat around and got dragged by arson until the final 5 where she finally got a little power and my friendship and alliance with her got me to the end.

As for having a boring game, if being interesting is being a hot fucking mess and fighting with Ally and instigating shit with her daily then I’d rather be boring. That shit was annoying, not interesting, and got old almost immediately. I’m not messy and I don’t pop off which doesn’t make me boring it makes me smarter at this game than you.

Nothing personal but if I don’t have your vote anyway then I don’t care what you think and I’ll defend myself. Kisses and rim jobs xoxo

Dan:

I did not do anything against anyone in this game that was personal, only strategic. Dan, after you and Rhone had the blow out I did feel like you and I were still good. I knew we could continue to work together. Rhone wanted me to evict you the week you went, but I was more inclined to evict Madison. It would have taken gathering some votes, but I would have done saved you had Madison not used her ass veto to take herself off the block. The fact of the matter is: you were a huge threat to win this game. Everyone knew that and it was either evict someone who I have a shot at beating in the end, and save an alliance (Jordan) or evict someone who stop me from winning this game would we make the final 2. While I could say maybe it would have been better to evict Jordan that week, who knows if I would still get a final 2 outcome had you stayed? I didn’t evict you because I didn’t like you, I knew I couldn’t beat you.

As to you and other jurors assuming I got dragged here and Ashley did the dragging, you’re wrong. Ashley didn’t make any big moves until Jordan GAVE her power and she chose to vote out Madison. Which any level headed person would do. Does not make her a mastermind. She let arson drag her around until she was handed power at final 4.

If you look at the people who drew big targets on their back throughout the game to assert power or start drama….they’re not in the final 2. Just because I didn’t play big and loud does NOT mean I was dragged here. Every eviction went the way I wanted it to. Even when I had no power, the relationships I formed with people allowed me to get what I wanted, stay off the block, and never get a single vote to evict.

I played this game smarter and harder than Ashley. I think I deserve to win. I did not get lucky. I made things happen socially because I knew comps would not be my strong suit. I worked with what I had. And I think I did it well.

Luke:

I don’t necessarily regret not being more social with you strategically, but I do think we could have worked together. The way I saw it was I didn’t want to spread myself too thin by trying to align with everyone in the game. I enjoyed our conversations together and think we just were on different sides. I do regret not getting to know you more on a personal level. But In big brother those people who openly are trying to work with everyone get their games blown up. So I was staying loyal to the people I was loyal to early on.

Rhone:

Staying unnominated until final 5 and receiving no votes to evict already sets my game apart from HOS9. I took the things that got me far in that game like laying low and not being a huge threat. My fault in HOS9 was poor jury management. This time around I talked more and tried harder to make sure my jury management was strong. I set myself up for success by keeping Ashley close and convincing her I was her number 1 after Josh and Joseph left. Which left me as a vital component to not only you, but meant I would stay over you if it came down to it. I think I deserve to win this game because besides only winning 1 HOH my social game was near flawless with no votes to evict and always avoiding the target until it came down to you or me had to go. I knew it would come to that and I ensured you left and not myself.

Randy:

*a lot has been happening irl didn’t have time for each week. If Rhea let’s me post it later I will though*

Throughout this game I did not let people drag me to the end or make decisions for me. There was not one week in this game that I did not go how I expected it to, even if the HOH was not on my side. I was always able to make arguments as to why I should be safe, downplay myself, and throw other people under the bus without it ever coming back to bite me. When it comes to Arson I like to believe that none of us just followed anyone else, but rather a group that worked well together and was able to come to clear decisions.

Madison:

REAL QUICK: idk why you all think Ashley controlled Survivor week because she did not. I protected you that week Madison when pitching people different ideas. The original plan was to target Luke but he won the idol and immunity. He told me he had the idol and I told Ashley. At that point it was you or jev because arson had the votes so I made sure jev left over you because you were closer to me and would benefit my game more. ANYWAYS ON TO THE RANKINGS

First off, let me just say congratulations to the two of you for making it to the end of the game! If you had told me at the beginning of the game, I would have laughed in your face and told you not to be ridiculous, so you proved me wrong! 

Any who, onto the question part. Please remember none of these questions are coming from a personal place, my vote is very undecided and I think it is in both of your best interests to answer every question thoughtfully and effectively. 

Corey, oh Corey. We were aligned from very early on in the game and I considered you someone that I really trusted and had a level head on their shoulders. You said in your opening speech that the hardest move to make in the game was breaking up Madison and Jordan. Since you and Ashley were so close and could have controlled the vote the week I was nominated, why did you guys not come together to get out one of the “hardest alliance to break up”. Why was I the one to go when I, at that point, only had two targets in mind, Rhone and Madison? What did I do to you personally in this game that made you not trust me SO much that you had to turn on me, because frankly, I never turned on you, just Rhone. Corey this is how I see your game right now, 

There’s you in the back, and everyone else you were aligned with, dragging you to the end. I don’t want to see your game like this. You qualified some of your actions in your opening statement, but I just am having a hard time buying that you didn’t just get lucky. Prove to me you didn’t just get lucky. 

Ashley, I was like 95% sure you had my vote before the opening statement! But now, I’m not sure. I think the thing that explains our relationship in this game the most is the fact that you did not put my name anywhere in your opening statement. I went back and counted the number of times I made contact with you and you made contact with me and the number of times TOTAL was 13. I initiated 8 of those conversations and you initiated 5. Only about 6 of them had to do with game, and the rest were about political science or something like that. My question to you is besides the fact that I nominated (AND SAVED) you week 2 and at the triple caused you to not need me in this game. I come into these games thinking that at any point I may need someone. You just seemed to not even have any regard for me in this game. I would approach you with ideas about how you and I could patch things up and move forward together and you’d be down for it, and then do the opposite of everything I wanted to do. Do you chock that up to not actually trusting me because I nominated you twice? Or do you chock that up to poor jury management? To be frank with you, you may have won one competition this entire game, but you fucked it up royally. Had you taken Jordan to the final 2 instead of Corey, you’d be sitting pretty right now, but congrats I guess on winning one thing???? 

And with that, 

WALK INTO THE FINALS PURSE FIRST! CLACK!

But seriously I am so excited and grateful to have made the final 2. I know some of you are not my biggest fan and some of you are set on voting Ashley because of friendship or potentially a dislike me.

I’m asking you please all go into this open minded and consider everything that is said and the answers to your questions.

I believe I played one of the best games and I deserve to win this game. I covered all of my bases throughout the game which allowed for my alliances to take each other out. I was in Arson with Joseph, Ashley, Josh, and Rhone. I also had a three person alliance with myself, Dan, and Rhone (Hag Mob!). While I had these alliances I also made sure I maintained strong personal relationships with people throughout the game.

One of my most vital personal alliances and friendships was Madison. We had a friendship and mutual respect for each other’s gameplay coming into this. We both knew we were on opposite sides of alliances, but still protected each other for as long as we could. Madison was often in power being the competition beast of the season. This worked to my advantage to have not only solid group alliances, but even stronger personal relationships that kept me safe.

Keeping all of my bases covered, keeping blood off my hands, staying close to people I trusted, and being that trustworthy person to others kept me safe and unnominated until final 5. I also believe these factors make me deserving to win this game. I never sat on the block until the end and anytime I was a possible nominee I dodged the block to keep myself safe. I kept my alliances close and did my best to make sure the people I was close to would be the ones sitting on jury were I to make the final 2. I had to guarantee my alliances did not go anywhere until jury started, and I did that. However, I knew eventually the alliances I had built could not stay intact and either I would have to backstab someone OR someone could do it for me to keep my hands clean.

My alliance with Dan and Rhone allowed me to stay safe while Dan took out Joseph and Josh (something I did not want to personally do). But having 3 arson members on the block allowed for no other choice than for my allies to go to jury. I was lucky to sit out the HOH where Dan won his second HOH in the triple eviction because I did not have to rank anyone, so my allegiances stayed quiet. Rhone got exposed though when they put Dan at the top of their list. This caused blame for nominations to shift to Rhone, slightly to me by association, but more so Rhone. The following week Madison put up Luke under the impression I would save him, I lied to save myself and my closest ally Rhone. I also knew Luke betrayed Madison’s trust early in the game so there was a bit of animosity that could be used to my advantage. That was the move I felt the worst about, lying to Madison about my vote. But I could not have it be me vs Rhone at Final 7 so I had to lie in order to keep myself safe. Rhone then gave me their extra vote to blindside Luke who would have had the numbers to stay. After this vote it was revealed Dan evicted Rhone. This caused disdain between Rhone and Dan which led to Dan’s eviction with myself still not caught in the crossfire of the drama once again.

The hardest alliance to break up was Madison and Jordan. I made myself the lesser threat of the obvious pair of Rhone and I, which resulted in their eviction at final 5. The final days of this game came down to Ashley and I manipulating Madison and Jordan to believe we were not as close as we were.
