I would just like to take a moment to talk about the perception of me being a goat and Ro being UTR, bc it's exactly that, a perception. In reality we both played very UTR games, but I'm labeled a goat bc I'm less likeable it seems. Everyone was just told to think of me as a goat and Ro as UTR, but if you look at the game it's clear that I'm anything but a goat. I was able to use this perception to my advantage late game and convince people to work with me in part bc I wasn't perceived as a threat, but I knew that'd be a stigma I'd have to fight against once I got here. I understand that Ro was more sociable than me, but I know I've played a better strategic game. I've been making moves since the beginning, Ro didn't start making moves until F8. Ro has been able to slide by into the endgame bc he was likeable enough that no one wanted him out, I've had to play this game since day one (technically 2) and I played it well.
In response to Jacqui, Ro said that you're voting for a person, not a set of moves, and I would disagree. You're voting for a person based on their set of moves. This is Stranded, not some personality contest. And while his amicable nature may have been part of his strategy, it's not a complete strategy on it's own.
Every time I've been a juror I've voted for the best game played, regardless of how much I liked the person or not, because that's what we came here to do, to play a game. If you look back at the moves I've made consistently, then it's clear I've played a better game from the get-go, Ro coasted until F8 and made one flashy move. If you want to vote for Fan Favorite, vote for Ro, but if you're voting for who played the best game, then vote for me.
