Hi guys!
I don't have a whole lot to say considering I was voted out approximately four score and seven years ago, so I'll just start by saying congratulations to both of you for getting this far. I saw both of you guys as pretty big threats from very early on (Caleb physical, Nick social) so you guys getting this far is very impressive. Kudos to you guys!
Caleb, I don't really even know what to say to you. I felt like you made it very clear early on that you weren't particularly interesting in speaking to me (there was a moment when you were like "I'm playing a video game" and promptly stopped talking to me that stands out lol). And, for me the social part of these games is really important. This game was a little inactive socially, but I can say that literally every single other person in this game with the exception of Rachel & Jen talked to me more than you. Even Laura. Even freaking Jessie. So I have trouble voting for you, despite your impressive performance in this game.
So my vote is really going to depend on how you do in this jury questioning, Nick. I felt like we definitely got along pretty well in this game for most of the time. Sure, we never got super strategic or anything, but we had some nice conversations about BB (down with BB8!) and Survivor and stuff along those lines. There just came a point where everything felt hugely disingenuous for me, and that WAS when we did talk more about game. Everything was so calculated and politician-esque. You loved everyone, you never knew about anything, etc etc. I felt like I was simply wasting my time talking to you about anything but non-game stuff. So I was pretty turned off, especially by the end. The only time that facade cracked was against Britney after me/her voted to evict you. So for me, I'm looking for genuineness in this jury questioning from you. I don't want squeaky clean politician answers from you I want simply realness & perhaps a little messiness. That's what my vote is honestly hinging on, because you both played pretty comparably strong games in my mind.
You both played excellent games and should be proud, and I'm so damn excited for this to be over after 9 billion zillion years.
