Kristine was legendary, honestly. She was EASILY the best confessionalist in the game, and was one of the only reasons the spectators ever had any clue what was going on. She walked away with Voice of the Season by a mile. It honestly breaks my heart that she was a no-vote finalist, because she was very nearly the Player of the Game. Her game wasn’t always clean, and she certainly made some mistakes. But man did she play hard. Probably harder than anyone, honestly. A lot of people rode the chaos like a wave and hoped for the best, but Kristine was always grinding out solutions to make sure she was okay. She deconstructed the chaos, and usually did so successfully. It could be argued that BK got to the end with luck, and that Nick W. got to the end with advantages (and also a bit of luck). But Kristine got there thanks to hard work, sweat, and stellar gameplay. In many ways, she was the real protagonist of the season. I really hope Kristine is willing to give us a second chance one day, because I would absolutely love to host her again.

**Move of the Game**

This move is definitely one the Jury didn’t fully understand but it was without a doubt the move of the season. At this point in time, the game seemed to be shifting in a direction where all the “big” players would target each other and get picked off one by one. However, two extremely powerful players decided to find common ground with this vote and really blew up the game more than any other single move this season. Suzz and Lex were both the two biggest targets in the game at Final 8, and they had just gone against each other. This vote was supposed to be a straightforward Lex blindside, but something else happened… These two pulled together whoever they could to change the target onto Maya. Maya, at this point in the game, was looking like she was gaining momentum with BK and Winston, and the former Barbarossa tribe looked as though it was poised to run the endgame. This vote out accomplished several things:

- It opened up a spot in the game allowing someone else to align with BK and Winston, which Suzz took advantage of

- Lex, despite going out the next move, really had a shot to make a deeper run

- Suzz managed to escape another round without using any advantages

- It also opened up a spot at FTC for every player left for standing their ground and refusing to target “Bigger” players.

**Voice of the Season**

Voice of the Season time baby. Voice of the Season, The seasons Narrator. Whatever you wish to call it is my way of saying thank you for letting me see the game through your eyes and really telling me what you were seeing. This season had many different players and I can confidently say this is the first season where I don't think any two confessionals matched, story wise, or any of the drama between you little buggers. Though I feel this player was involved in very large moments of the story of the season. They started off fiery and really telling us how they felt about their tribe and the people around them. Some of the most entertaining confessionals come from this player. Though as time passed their were many changes in them and their demeanor. We saw them really open up and saw so many moments of real internal struggle. They spoke of not having the heart for the game anymore, recognizing changes within themselves. They spoke of their life, explained their moral battles in the game, and they also were EXTREMELY active in their confessional. Whether it was strategy or life we knew what was on their mind and they didn't back down from sharing it.
