Part 1There are different ways to identify threats in games, there are the strategical threats, there are challenge threats, and there are social threats. For each area in this game I could've been threatened by different people.
As a strategical threat, I'd say Jessica was the biggest threat. She knows how to get people to do what she wants and knows about it. She has a way to get everyone to like her and get everyone to do her bidding without getting caught, which I tried to emulate in my gameplay.
As a competition threat, that was easily Dave and Janelle. Dave was such a fierce competitor, think about it, he was out week 6 and won more competitions then most of everyone who made it into the final 9. Janelle was also a fierce challenge threat
As a social threat, that is a Dave and Jessica combination. They both talked to everyone and easily made themselves the centre in many alliances.
Now, to define my biggest threat is to find someone in the game who threatened me on a game level. Even though Dave, Janelle, Jessica, Nicole and James were fierce competitors, I was alligned with them at some point or other so they were never really a threat to me. The person in this game who
I could never get leaway with or who I could never get to believe me was you Eddie. You never ever believed my lies, you called me out whenever you could. You badmouthed me whenever you could which to me made you public enemy number 1. I can bet that at this moment you are still badmouthing me to the jury but that's ok, it's part of the game. So my biggest threat, as I've told you countless times was you. By the way, I know I'm not getting your vote so this is in no way a form of "sucking up". Like I said, you never could believe me so why try and start now.
Part 2Joshuah: Joshuah and I go way back and when he wants he can be quite the flirt and charmer which are great qualities to have. He also makes a game very interesting any time he plays in one.
Mike: Mike was very laid-back which I appreciated of him. We spoke briefly before his eviction and when I let him know my vote was for him he was still amicable and a good sport.
Nicole: Nicole was a fierce competitor and was in essence a perfect ally. She trusted me with everything and I think is really angry at me for betraying it. Nicole is one of the nicest people you could talk to and is 100% honest to those she alligns with.
Amanda: Amanda is full of energy and is always ready willing and able. She'll try to win something at all costs.
Jen: Jen and I didn't speak once this entire game but I know that she has a good heart and tries her best. I also want to commend her on keeping an alliance with Chelsia secret for so long.
Drew: Drew is such a great guy who is genuinely in these games for the fun of it all. Even though he is from England and has issues with the time of competitions, he still puts in his 100% every time he plays.
Dave: Dave is everything, a great friend, a competition guru, a social butterfly. He is just an all-around great guy and will make a great husband to his fiancee.
Scott: Scott persevered throughout the game even though he was barely ever on AIM. He was able to maintain communication using PM's which I haven't seen done before.
Will: Will was fun to talk to when we were talkative and he has a good sense of humour. He also is an awesome speaker. He articulates well and always presents himself like a gentleman.
James: James is by far the person I have grown to love the most in this game. He and I are so much alike in real life and I love him for being so open and honest with me. James was also still super-talkative once he found out my true alliance with Janelle and Chelsia and was still willing to work with me. He is what I call a true friend and I hope we continue to talk once this is all done
.
Eddie: I think Eddie is actually a very caring guy. I will never see that side of him but I know for those who call him friends, Eddie will stick up for you and will be there for you when he is needed. I doubt we'll ever patch things up between us but I know deep down he is a good guy.
Jessica: Jessica and I have gotten really close in this game and I love her spark and her vulnerable side. She may be a strong competitior and puts up a strong front but inside she is a soft-spoken, sweet girl who I enjoyed conversing with these last few weeks.
Janelle: I LOVE Janelle, she knows her stuff when playing these games and I always loved watching how she played the game.
Chelsia: She is there for you whenever you need her and will always stick up for you. Chelsia is a true friend when you do not cross her but she won't just let herself be a doormat either. She has a vindictive side to her as well.
Jason: I may say things in this game about his gameplay but Jason is actually a good friend and is all in all a good guy. He wouldn't hurt a fly if he could and tries his hardest to keep everyone happy to make sure not to have any enemies.
