You can keep that mouth shut Twatgirl.

I’m not really one to give speeches here on the main thread, but I just want to say I hope people will hear me out about what I have to say and just tell me one way or the other what they plan on doing with their vote since not much can be changed about it at this point with not much money left out here. <3

Hey everyone, I wanted to speak with you all individually because at this point its just easier that way. Please take what i said into consideration and if you have any other questions or concerns please just ask. At this point in the game you need to start thinking about your best ways of winning in the end and if you think me staying in the game increases those chances please keep me! I will respect your decision either way, but please just let me know before hand. I have loved playing with you all and I hope I get to continue in this game!

I’m sorry this is so long. Lol

I’ve tried my best to stay here even though I knew in this situation the chances of that happening were super slim… thank you to everyone for at least giving me a chance to try and campaign to you. I know my luck was awful last week with a luck veto and the exact wrong person winning it. In that hour between the veto being used and the renom, I was battling between making a safe choice and taking a risk. I went with the risk. And obviously it didn’t pay off how I hoped but I didn’t want to get to the end of this game wondering how I got there with the strongest players and asking myself why I had set myself up to fail. I recognize that although bad luck had a lot to do with it, at the end of the day my split second decisions were a mistake. I thought there would be a chance people saw last week as an opportunity to take out someone who could very well win out to the end, but I obviously see now that I didn’t have it set up in the ideal way for it to work since it wasn’t my original plan. I thought it would make people from “both sides” use their money to save an important member of their “group” and decrease the chances of me or my closest ally being an autonom this week but, I didn’t anticipate one side letting a member practically sacrifice themselves so that the others could all have their immunity this week. I can’t fault any of you for evicting me this week after I made a mess of everything last week and that’s my own fault. I would like to say I’m proud of the game I’ve played, but of course I’ll be leaving with a bit of regret. I could have tried to keep playing it safe for a while and I’d still be here… but I think that I’d have regrets about playing it safe too either way. Although Im an example of someone probably taking too big of a risk, I hope to see people not playing it too safe either.

Max - you are actually very underrated in this game and some people might not respect the game you are playing, but I know you have what it takes to win comps when you are trying and you have the cutthroat philosophy in this game that could help you make moves with no remorse, which is exactly the quality every good BB player has. Show everyone just how much they’ve been underestimating you.

Dorothy - I respect you in this game so much. You have an amazing social game and I’m excited to see what you will do going forward. Thank you for being an ally of mine from the very beginning and someone I really could trust, I’ve really appreciated you a lot in these last few hours especially. I’ll be rooting for you <3

Kim - as I told you in our room, there was a time in which I considered you basically my closest ally. I am very impressed with your ability to make people feel that way about you even if you don’t feel the same way toward them, and I hold no bitterness toward you about this because I respect how you are playing. You’re a very logical player and make it seem effortless to play with your head over your heart which I truly admire because that’s not easy to do. Best of luck to you!

Ember - I really wish you didn’t put me up two weeks ago because that ultimately set the groundwork for my game going up in flames but I don’t hold it against you. You have been one of the sweetest people to me in this game and for that I am thankful and appreciate you. I believe you that if this week has been different and I wasn’t forced on the block that I wouldn’t be up here. I hope to see you making big moves going forward and I believe in you.

Debbie - yes, it was made obvious what my actual plans were last week and that being screwed up was a stroke of bad luck for me but great luck for you - obviously it wasn’t in the stars for me but, maybe it is for you I’ve meant what I said about appreciating you in this game and I adore you. I see the game you have been playing and I’m so impressed by you and truly believe you have what it takes to do some great things as it dwindles down to the end!

Steve - I don’t think I’ve ever played with a better player which is ultimately why I did what I did last week. It was a shot to get you out and if not that, a shot to make you vulnerable this week. It was a risk I thought I should take before it’s way too late, which was something that had haunted me from the past games that I played with stronger players than me. I wondered how it is that someone can so obviously be one of the best players and make it to the end effortlessly - well, at least now it won’t be considered effortless for you and I’m sorry I had to put you through that. You truly were one of my favorite people to talk to in this game and I enjoyed our novels to one another. You know the move was simply out of respect and if I was following my heart, I would have had no issue with you dragging me to f5/4/3 and cutting me then. But when the opportunity arose, I didn’t want to pass up the chance of trying to get you out before you get to play in every veto. I’m interested to see how else you can navigate through this game to the end and I love you <3

Sam - if I have to leave this game next to anyone, I am happy that it had to be next to you. You have been my best friend in this game for so long and when you were gone I missed you so much. I am so grateful for you coming back and being able to play with me more. Ive never had a private room with someone that had two threads before lmao so thank you for the friendship you have given me. People continue to underestimate you and as Jennifer said when she left, please prove them wrong. I know that you can. I hope you have enjoyed playing with me as much as I have with you, although I was definitely always leaning on you for emotional support as I went into paranoia spirals and I hope that wasn’t too annoying for you lol. I love you and im going to miss you so much as I wait for finale night and reveal

All of you have a chance for my vote at the end and there is something I love and respect about each and every one of you. You all have different strengths that have propelled you into the final 7 of the all star season and that alone is enough for each of you to have a shot at winning this thing. Good luck to you all and can’t wait to see which all stars are sitting in the final 2 chairs <3 thank you so much to Arisa and Batgirl for having me.

P.S. I hope you all stream goodbye to you on your rise and shine playlist and think of me

Goodbye Sandra <3

You’re a GREAT player. Definitely a force to be reckoned with in this game. You’ll be so so missed in here. Don’t leave with any regrets. You did your absolute best and beat out 18 other ALL STARS. Be proud of yourself and leave with your head held high

Bye Sandra!

You’re a hell of a fighter and I have respect for it! As a force to be reckoned with in this game, you are an accomplishment in itself despite a few hiccups, though your desire to take shots is admirable! Goodbye for now!
