Okay, so this is the hardest vote I've ever made. I worked you hard in my juror's thread because I have never felt so conflicted about a vote. You've got Tapu, the blossoming social threat who remind me of me, Deo, a strategically minded nearly gamebot who became my rock and closest friend, and Regi, who has all the right pieces (the social and strategic smarts) but not necessarily in the right order.
There's a world in which this goes to Regi. I'm not sure what we watched in FTC and I'm frustrated that you've walked away with the idea that the game demands a worldview that you can't honestly align yourself with. It looks like you gave up: you didn't need to.
I think the choice has been so hard because in all other ftcs, my vote has very much been a vote against the other player: someone has obviously deserved my vote where the other candidates have not. Right now, this decision is between two people who definitely HAVE earnt my vote and two people who, whatever I do tonight, have a win in their future. Run this game, this FTC 100 times and the margin is still tiny. Deo, you played a well rounded, recognisable game of Survivor: you did most of the right things at the right time, made connections and moves where it mattered and built a resume. Tapu, you embraced the social game, and although in some lights it can be argued you didn't 'do' much, in others it can be argued that you didn't have to.
I was thinking about Survivor earlier. In Kaoh Rong, when Aubrey lost to Michelle, I was devastated. Aubrey played -better-. She did things. It meant more to her. But after a while, Aubrey acknowledged that you can play the 'best game' in the world: if you can't connect with yourself and with everyone around you, then you haven't played the right game. This message was highlighted in closing speeches: Deo, you talked about challenge wins, but the jury hadn't found them important enough to discuss. Tapu, you thanked the jurors for pushing you, showing you understood them, and you. You've both been on a massive growth arc, but only one of you realises how important it is.
I vote for Tapu. You don't have to be perfect to do enough.
