Eat's Jury Speech

First things first, I would like to thank the hosts for putting on a wonderful game. I'm incredibly impressed with the job you've done for a first season. Second, I'd like to thank my fellow jurors for being great competitors and not letting the game get too personal. Now onto the finalists (time to be totally cliche here, even though its the truth). Congratulations to the both of you for making the final 2 (thank you for not giving me 7th place...)! Its an incredible accomplishment, and you should be proud. I'm going to keep this short and sweet and ask a few questions. I am coming into this vote with an open mind, however I am leaning more one way than the other, which way I'm leaning might become obvious in my questions. I've had my time to be bitter and I've gotten over everything that's happened, I just want to vote for a fair winner at this point. (I also find it funny how hedger gave me 9th place with being the 5th vote against me within 6 hours of each other (trophy game and SSORG), and he ended up in the finals in both, lets see if he gets the same placement!)

**Please answer these questions honestly and fairly, not to pander to my jury vote but so that I have a better understanding of your game.**

## Questions for hedger

1) hedger, one of your biggest criticisms is that your jury management was not the greatest. As a juror, why should I reward your game over yuujin's, when your only form of jury management towards me was including a note in your vote, while yuujin talked to me during the vote?

2) If cutting yuujin/Tobi before F3 would have benefitted your game, would you have done it? Explain a situation where you would have done so where you aren't recieving votes.

3) When I flipped to you at merge/swap, did you consider me a genuine ally or a useful idiot, and did you ever plan on working with me far? Please answer this one honestly, I will not be offended at the answer if it is the second one, after all, I'm asking and just want to know.

4) Is your favorite cat Garfield or withered?

## Questions for yuujin

First, I'd like to say that I was wrong about you getting 5th if your Copas alliance made F5, cause I asked Hansie before writing this who he was going to side with if you made it all the way with them and he said you guys over Voidzz and munchyoshi, so yeah ¯\\_(ツ)\_/¯. I would make some points about the rationale behind my decisions that were made in the game that you got wrong, but that is irrelevant to this and this is about you guys, not me.

1) Many times, you left your game in hedger's hands. Do you believe you took enough control of your own game? Explain why.

2) Hedger was the one who placed the doubt in our minds that you were the one leaking the vote if I recall correctly, does that change your view of what happened, considering before he did that I was going to be a loyal ally to you to the end?

3) Was not voting out hedger at the final 4 a move of guaranteeing you final 2, loyalty, or something else? From your jury speech I feel you had a stronger case than Tobi. Llewell was clearly a jury threat with her incredible social game, so I believe Tobi would have taken you if you won final immunity and you would have taken him, but that's just my outsider's opinion, I'd like to hear the answer from the source.

4) I believe you and hedger played two incredibly different, but incredibly strong games that complimented each other well. hedger took more control over the game and you flew under the radar and stayed loyal to your small core (which is a very valid strategy). Who was better at doing their own type of game and why?

5) What is your favorite musical instrument?

## Questions for both of you.

1) Name one flaw in the other finalist's game that I have not mentioned.

2) What was the most threatening aspect of each member of the jury, and what was each of their downfalls?

3) Name one fact that you learned about 6 of the 9 jury members during the course of the game. Please do not ask them, I want it to be something you learned while they were in the game with you (that's against the rules anyway).

4) Who do you believe played the best game of all the jurors and why?

5) Did you have fun?

Once again, congratulations to both, and I wish you both luck. You're incredible players.
