You've been a bright light since practically the moment we met. There may have been a blip or two along the way, but on the whole, I'm glad I got to meet you.
Having you show up so eager to trust me already was a total softball, but it was also a recipe for something beautiful. You just kind of threw trust at me and said, "reciprocate this!" and I was like alright sure I could use another friend. It's just another mark on the side of your impressive social game that you came into that tribe from exile and were competing for my #1 in the game spot within like 24 hours. Sometimes good things just fall into your lap, and getting to meet you at that time was one of my biggest strokes of luck all game.
You are ridiculously charming, and I hope you know that. It is not a coincidence that nearly everyone you met was falling all over themselves to align with you to the point where you wound up in trouble for having too many friends and had to make decisions like cutting Horse really really early on. You have this positive energy that just bubbles out with your messages. It seems like you love the game, too. I wish I could say the same --it's definitely a love/hate at best-- but despite everything that was less than perfect, I hope you still had a great time.
I knew for a long time, since the top 6 twist that really kinda screwed you hard, that I probably couldn't go to the end with you. For much of that time, I didn't know if I'd be able to make the move at all, never mind execute it at the right time. Now that it's all done, I'm sort of glad that although I might have tried to take you down and surely needed it to happen before the end, I didn't end up casting a valid vote for you. I imagined I would be on the jury voting for you to win rather than the spot I'm in now. You played great, and you might have been able to manage your threat level well enough to take the whole game without that one twist exposing that you were everyone's secret best friend. And even after that, you lasted a really long time. And even so, I kept believing and still do believe that you really loved me the most. Isn't that stupid?
I'm sorry for getting testy with you on your last day. You didn't cross any lines, and I overreacted. I just didn't realize you were willing to play the game so hard, and I didn't expect it. In retrospect, it wasn't the first time I saw evidence of you being willing to do whatever it took to win, and I willfully ignored it previously.
I suspect you've already won a game, since you made it clear you were a veteran and you're obviously extremely good. But if not, I'm positive you will someday. Good game, dude.
