I was pretty sure I knew Doro's identity prior to F7 and now I'm next to certain.

Final 4
Vote: Dorothea

No, you're not dust, you're an Eagle now! See? The dust is the rest of them! Shake the dust your talons and take to the skies!

Since meeting you I've felt really good about my connection to you and you've always been among my favorite people to talk to. We navigated both the Eagles and Army together (along with three trio alliances), and you're a very impressive player. I wouldn't be sad in any way to lose to you here but am obviously gonna do my best to make that not the case.

I hope this all helps explain things a little and doesn't stress you out more.  Caspar is on your side and definitely wouldn't try anything while he is in danger.

You have had such a high energy for this game! A very strong social player and not lacking strategically either. It makes it so hard to do things that hurt you lol. Like F7 the Caspar vote I knew you would have big pushback to me voting out Caspar there which is something I just didn't know how to handle. Very much a joy to play with and I just hope you didn't get too emotionally involved in the outcome.

Oh, so you voted for me then?

May I ask why?  I thought we serious had a good thing going.

I believe you were at the top of this game at final 14 and the bottom at final 7, with a gradual descent in between. From the start it was clear you were a very good player and an experienced one at that. I'm still amazed at the way you handled the F10 revote as well as all aspects of the leader role. It took way way more planning and rounds of play to get to a gamestate where you could be gotten rid of than it does for any other player.

Theres a whole heap of shit being spread right now that Ive flipped, that ive leaked plans i know nothing about, including a plan to vote Raph.  Its all lies.  Im voting Shamir tonight, and godwilling im voting the mastermind of the chaos: Edelgard tomorrow

If you aren't the main character of this game then I'm not sure who is. I'm still wrapping my head around how two different people gave you idols. And whether or not you would admit it, you were responsible for a lot of the chaoticness and dynamicness of this game. It's also interesting that all three times you were voted followed your 'biggest' stunts (claiming to make Leicester to target a specific tribe to both tribes, Thanksgiving Rumours, and Saying you'll turn on Raphael then backing out) which suggests you don't actually have to tone down your play all that much to have a reasonable shot of in the future winning or making a FTC.

Yeah, Claude and I are playing chess, so it would be dishonorable to checkmate mid game," he says unsheathing his shield and pointing it to the sky.

I loved the physical descriptions you always gave with what you said. Unfortunately you had pretty much already lost by the time I met you, having an absurd number of people that wanted you out, but I was very happy to help extend your stay in the game a few more rounds. You also seemed very distracted, so to speak, during the game, acting moment to moment rather than trying to plan ahead. Nonetheless, you were still quite enjoyable to play with and talk to.

Welcome back Ashe. Sorry to drag you back like this

You have had the loudest voice this game. And for the most part, that has been to your benefit, namely in the Alois and Claude votes. However it was also your end, as round after round you were the easiest person for the minority vote to get on, and eventually someone would have an idol. I tried to go as far as I could with you, as you were someone I was confident in trusting and always would feel comfortable expressing my opinion to. It was also remarkable to me how often we agreed on who to vote. Time after time I had left you and was brought back, but I cannot express how nervous I am for this last time.

Correct. I was honestly like "holy shit, am I about to be blindsided? :0" for a whole minute. It was a little exciting, but I'm glad that didn't happen in the end.

I've tried to picture your reaction but have struggled; I hope you wrote it down either in confessional or spec forum. Your elimination was just an odd round. For me you were too close to Raphael who looked like he was gonna have too much power over the merge; I cast an idol vote on you for the same reason the previous round. You were extremely good at leaving a solid first impression on people, but were unable to really follow that up with many people, as a direct result of you opting to not talk much about game beyond the vote at hand.

like yeah, i ain't really happy with voting Hapi, but you gotta write a name in that confessional at some point

I had been waiting for you to do something to save yourself and it felt like you were waiting for someone to extend a hand to you. It was a bad tribeswap for you but I'm not sure you had a good tribeswap there. I, and most people, remain mystified as to why you gave Lorenz the idol but I'm sure it'll make sense after the game is over.

But god damn I just cannot catch a break. Why would you [Annette] even tell someone that??

You really couldn't catch a break. I'm still unsure what happened to get you into that game-ruining feud with Hapi. Lorenz hating you was not your fault from what I can tell. You got shafted out of support connections once or twice, still not sure which. The Eagles were an awful place to start the game with a busy weekend. And in all your time the only true ally you managed to pick up was Lysithea. I would've loved to work with you even if only for a few rounds, but you unfortunately never got to a position where your game wasn't completely on fire.

Odd?

Alright, cool.
