#10304 I remain vociferous in my support of Yul based on his jury performance which has highlighted to me that he played the better overall game than Cass. He wasn't flashy like she was but his game this season is definitely more successful when you consider the infinite amount of variables at play.

he played the best game to get to the end. didn't take any risks. his ftc is excellent, but it doesn't make up for the previous 3 weeks

big cass played the best game this season. yul's strategic game was staying out of trouble. cass did that too. merge to F7/8 she wasn't in the spotlight at all. equal here.
when it was time to make moves, cass stepped up. yul kept playing safe.
yul talks about his connections and relationships, but were they that good? i don't think so. cass got brenda's idol, yul and brenda talked only on the last day. cass approached andrea to vote me out, yul was asking you to do the talk for him. cass was the deciding factor in the first merge rounds, when the coup was attempted. what was yul's involvement there? i can't talk about what happened after i was booted, but look at what ozzy said. if yul had great connections, he was really bad at using them.
social game. i said it before, yul was my favorite to talk to. but cass was always a lot of fun. how many people were there who barely talked to yul? 3? 4?
variables. cass actively tried to use them to her advantage. yul tried to minimize their influence.
ftc is clearly yul's, but look back at his tribal performances. his opening statement is probably longer than all his other tc posts combined. he articulates his game better, but his game wasn't better.

cass was flashy. she was great strategically. she smoked the other finalists in challenges. she had a lot of fun and that was contagious. i'm giving her the edge on every aspect of the game.

#10309 Ditto vytas on that. Yul has the better FTC but Cass has the better game.

#10313 After reading Cass's response in my thread, it's going to be hard not to vote for her. She was involved in everything/everyone. Instigating. Misleading. Influencing.

#10314 Reading over Cass' answer to Katie is fucking insane. The amount of detail she put into this game is crazy (if all is true, which seems like it is). Damn.

#10318 Cass' answer to Katie, like I said, is pretty fucking great. I can't deny that.

I stand by my impending vote for Yul for the reasons I've explained. I feel like I shouldn't like push super hard considering people will say I'm super biased.

I just feel like Yul playing "a safe" game shouldn't count against him which which is the gist I'm getting in the last few messages I've read.

#10385 Cass I didn't the most impressive thus far in tonight's live discussion. Yul is also doing well but really slipped up with his reaction to Sarah (which Cass takes advantage of). Don't blame his honesty though. Sarah was EXTREMELY difficult talking to.

#10488 Sarah kind of fell apart. I think she got emotional and lost focus a bit when confronted by some jurors. She got flustered and was left with incessantly beating a drum by speaking in generalities instead of talking specifics.

Cass took more credit than she should have. A bit of revisionist stuff going on with the Vytas and Rudy boots but I ALSO believe she's just trying to differentiate her game from Yul/Sarah. I don't think she's trying to take more credit on purpose but it IS fucking annoying. That being said, whether she was in the loading the gun or pulling the trigger, there's no denying that Cass had the most influence on this game.

Yul did fucking amazing. I think Cass really undermined him in a few debates, specifically the part about his desire to take Ozzie to the end. That being said I think he was aggressive and loud. He reclaimed his time and defended the amazing game that he played.

would be even more annoying if she'd talk about her game and give credit to others every few sentences. she did that plenty of times during the weekend, she doesn't have to repeat over and over again.

you're a great wingman. love what you're doing for your homie.

#10515 Sarah is such a character. Now that I understand she is a 'recruit' it all kinda makes sense. I wish her approach in messages will be different in her future games. She would've been an amazing underdog winner (but that would just remind me of Australia).

Cass is an excellent player and I really do hope we connect outside the game after this. Love you Milo <3 Going into this FTC, my perception was that Cass played the best overall game.

But Yul did amazing in this FTC. He made it up by being so quiet and guarded in this entire game. I think compared to Yul, Cass had an easier path to the finals (except the last two or three rounds, where immunity really saved her). I believe Yul struggled more to reach where he is now. Sometimes you don't have to be too flashy or make really big moves to 'play the game'.

I would gladly fall on my own sword for him (i think i already did with the purple rock). Whether he wins this game or not, I'm more than honored to give my vote for him to win.

ps. and just confirming the fact that me and Rudy started talking in secret about two days after the premerge incident, and I think we grew even closer after that.
