“---- F5 ---- Hoopa ----
Hoopa, you were the last person in the game that didn't have a final 3 deal with me. </3
In case you haven't realized by now, all the opening up I was doing to you was actually jury management. I was trying to convince you that I was in fact a bigger threat then deoxys right before I sent you to jury, so your last impression of me would be better then your impression of deoxys.“
and telling her this directly accomplishes...?

That speech for regi on quick glance is too long and self serving.
Kinda like how I mentioned earlier that regi sees people as tools in game and not as humans. That in itself is not bad gameplay but I don't think this jury is going to like that being his message. He needs to appeal to them and go for "chaos was my reset for survival" even if in reality it was because he was kinda bored.

FTC speech writing is very hard for people who don't understand human emotions very well (I still have no idea how to do them). I suspect Regi might fall into that category but we will see.

I REALLY WISH TAPU LELE HAD STUCK TO HER GUNS. THIS WAS DISAPPOINTING. *BELLOWS IN DISAPPOINTMENT*

THAT BEING SAID, REGI SORTA DID JUST SHOW HIS TRUE COLORS PUBLICLY, SO MAYBE FLIPPING BACK ON CELEBI VS SOMEONE WHO COULD HAVE LEGITIMATELY JUST BLOWN UP THEIR CHANCES ISN'T THE WORST MOVE. I WONDER HOW MUCH CREDIT DEO IS GOING TO TRY TO TAKE FOR THIS THOUGH. *SCREAMS IN MESOPOTAMIAN*

I'm tempted to rewrite his speech in here. If I have inspiration tonight I may make a new thread for it

I mean it's not bad for a first draft. It needs to credit the jury more but overall it does set him up as a big player in the game and should at least put him in contention.

And it's not 8000 words so it can't be too long.

I REALLY WISH TAPU LELE HAD STUCK TO HER GUNS. THIS WAS DISAPPOINTING. *BELLOWS IN DISAPPOINTMENT* Me IRL after this round. Gah Tapu Lele you were so close to being my favorite. Anyway going into the FTC I have to root for Deoxys. I really wanted a newbie to win this game, but Tapu Lele going back on the last vote makes them look weak, as if Deoxys or Regi got to them. The only play I could see Tapu saying is if they were really worried about an idol and plays it as a newbie not know Idols dont work in the F4. Thats the only real reason I'd personally buy if I was on the jury. And Regi has turned from my favorite to being just too darn arrogant. There is a difference between being cocky and then just being... whatever he is. I think this is Deoxys game to lose. I don't see Cele voting for either Tapu after the stunt she pulled or Regi because Regi too OTT now. I think the newbie votes will be split between Tapu and Regi with Deoxys winning all the vets but Meltan. But I think if anyone is going to win this game with their FTC performance, it might be Regi. He needs to not oversell, but just kinda one-up Deoxys. Deoxys really just needs to keep his cool, not flip out and paint a picture of him in the drivers seat. I think we'll see a bit of a discussion about the Uxie vote come up a lot this FTC.

Hey mods please seal us off from the Jury confessionals.

I'll do that, as always, during the actual voting phase ya goon.

SO I ENJOY THAT WE CONGRATULATE THE FINALISTS AND OF THE THREE OF THEM, TAPU'S THE ONLY ONE TO SAY THANK YOU.
HONESTLY? THAT MIGHT GO A LONGER WAY WITH SOME OF THESE JURY MEMBERS. WE WILL SEE. *MALICIOUS GROWLS THAT MAKE CHOCOLATE BUNNYS MELT ALL OVER THE WORLD*

Tapu had it. Tapu had the game and shrugged it away.

Eh it's redeemable but tapu needs to find a proper angle to pitch stuff and show all their nice.

given that she's going to mobilepost the speech, she's probably not going to do it well.

Heh, i mean opening statements don't really indicate final votes. Questions and closings play a much larger factor.

I dont think there is anyway for Tapu to redeem herself here. Her main problem is the jury sees her as a goat. In her chance to prove they weren't, that they were here to make moves and take out threats, they broke under what could be seen as the pressure of Deoxys or Regi (Deoxys will probably spin it the best). On top of that, it looks like they just dragged Celebi through the drama of a revote for no reason. Added to the fact that now she can't even say she was ever really playing this game apart from Regi because the only move she and him weren't together on, was Regi's boot of Uxie which was game changing... for Regi and weaker for Tapu Lele.
Tapu Lele might win Uxie's vote. But I really think she would have had a better shot honestly if she had just voted for Celebi in the beginning. Doubling back on that vote is not a good look for someone already perceived as a goat. Regi and Deoxys may not have played the nicest games, but I just don't see anyone appreciating the nice game when (to the jury POV) they were literally just nice because they didn't know to do anything all game. Can't even go into it with the whole sympathetic card since I think her vote on Celebi kinda shows she wanted to do stuff but didn't have the balls.
I dunno man. We wont know till the jury gets into it with the opening questions but I think Tapu Lele's already weak chance of winning has pretty much gone non-existence. Still, newbie juror members are the most emotional so I mean... *shrug*
(Edited: fixed grammar!)

Eh there's a squirelly line to take and the chance of success is low. I'll expamd later and it's heavily dependent on people's reaction to deo, but there is a way to win here.

DEO DEFINITELY HAS A WAY TO RESPOND TO SPECS. GIVEN THE LAST TIME OF HOW SPECS WERE I CAN'T EXACTLY BLAME HIM, BUT LIKE, I FEEL LIKE SPECS WERE PRETTY NICE THIS TIME IN COMPARISON.

I appreciate his sass but lets see if he can translate that drive to win into an actual gold medal. Talk is cheap hun, lets see the results

ALSO THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ADDRESSING JURY MEMBERS IN A SPEECH AND BORDERLINE LAMBASTING THEM. I'M WORRIED THAT REGI IS CROSSING A LINE THAT COULD SINK HIS SHIP.
OF THE THREE FINALISTS, I THINK DEO NOW HAS THE BEST SHOT TO WIN AND I CLEARLY DIDN'T ALWAYS THINK SO. BETWEEN REGI'S COCKY ATTITUDE AND LELE'S INABILITY TO STICK WITH HER FLIP TO SHOW SHE WASN'T UNDER DEO'S THUMB, I THINK IT'S DEFINITELY HIS TO LOSE.
THAT BEING SAID IF HE ACTS THE WAY HE DOES TO SPECS TO THE JURY MEMBERS, THEY MIGHT BE PUT OFF ENOUGH TO SPITE VOTE ONE OF THE OTHER TWO. MAYBE, MAYBE NOT. WHO KNOWS.
WHAT I WILL SAY IS THAT I FEEL THIS IS THE LEAST TOXIC JURY IN SOME TIME, ASIDE FROM COBA DOING THEIR WEIRD LYING THING THAT DIDN'T REALLY WORK OUT *GROWLS AGGRESSIVELY*
