My plan for this tribal after my abysmal play there:
Pitch the Oven vote as "You all know that I'm a fireworks display, but if people are watching me they're not watching you."
Mipha, Sidon, Kohga, and Myself are there. I know that.
Revali or Epona just have to follow. And I think they will. I have to.
Lose your mind, but don't lose your hope.

Not gonna lie I'm a bit confused how I got my liar reputation...
Voted out because people thought I was blindsiding someone that I wasn't blindsiding.
And then after the proof came out that I didn't try to blindside Sidon... they all assumed I was still a villain?

Unanimous send off but no motorcycle play.
I'll take it!
Not super surprised but not happy with Urbosa not taking the heat.

The only thing I could've done different is if I woke up earlier (just before deadline) I could have used my cryosleep to broadcast everything I knew about the game before going out.

Being voted out unanimously somehow hurts more when you realise that you had four people legitimately trying to save you with triple PMs coming you way...

Time for another round of Jury questions!!!
We are nearly at the end game so we'd love to hear your thoughts on the final 5!
1) What will you base your Jury vote on? Is there anything that has already impressed you? Is there anything that can impress you in these final rounds?
2) How do you feel about the opinions of the other Jury members? Is there anything you agree/disagree with?
3) What types of things will you be looking for at FTC? Do you have any burning questions that you can't wait to ask?
4) Sum up the game in a meme or gif!
5) If you could say something to someone still in the game, what would you say?

I thought I replied to these!
I'm so sorry!!!
I'll do a summary of my thinking:
First: I'm leaning to vote Kohga or Mipha. Kohga's played a good under the radar game. Urbosa's game wasn't super impressive when I was in with her (Trying to push the Kass vote as my idea while she was immune? She had nothing to gain from that, she couldn't get revenged). Having immunity doesn't mean you necessarily know what to do with it, and Sidon's thoughts seem to emulate that.
Revali's been solid but he has been a bit quiet, and without the same pull that Kohga has.
Mipha I mainly want to vote for because of our personal bond? Though if I'm honest I probably should vote for Kohga.
Sorry I disappeared for a while! I hope that answers your questions.
Also seriously, I hate that nobody answers the tribal questions. They're kind of important when trying to convince the jury of what you're up to.

The thing I love about Sidon is our gameplay was pretty wildly different, but our fundamentals of how we think about the game are still in sync enough to seem to have similar ideas about who we want to win (ie. not Urbosa unless her FTC is solid).
That's like the best kind of ally. Someone who can let you be you but still coming from a similar place that you are.
Only that's more important if both of you are still in the game =P

The problem with genuinely liking everyone and being able to respect the way everyone played is I have zero idea how to vote.

I went into this thinking "there's no way I can vote Urbosa!"
Then her FTC speech had me going "Oh, actually maybe I can!"
But her hesitance to own her game (as pointed out by Sidon) does kind of make it hard to vote for her?
As I think about it, I think that Mipha might be the best embodiment of this game.
Because where I'm sitting, the one thing that's constant in this game is social bonds. The twists and advantages were so wild that you couldn't really count on them. You could count on social bonds. Revali and Mipha I would say had better bonds than Urbosa, since Urbosa was relying a lot on tricks.
But Mipha then also had a bit of merchandise and used the chamber to her advantage, growing her game from it. And since this is a complex game, as much as I respect the hell out of Revali for getting here without using twists, I think that Mipha does best represent the core of what Power vs Courage vs Wisdom was.
A bunch of people scrambling to make friends during a pandemic while taking advantage of wild curveballs.
I'll wait in case anything else comes up, but I think that I'm going to be putting my vote on Mipha.

I think Mipha has done a better job of owning her reliance on twists than Urbosa has, although Urbosa did start owning that more towards the end? Though I also just might be relating well to Mipha because like everything she says about the second wind from coming back from the chamber is an experience I literally also had so I understand it more.
