Rat: 20th place

Rat, I think you are a much better player than this placement shows, and it took some unusual circumstances and a very interesting first round for you to get the boot. I'm sorry you didn't make it farther, because I was looking forward to seeing you play!

Rat, I'm sorry you were the first one out. You were a pleasure to talk to, and I enjoyed it, it was just, there was nobody good to vote first round. There was nobody good to vote like, ever. I think most of the circumstance around your vote was just getting extremely unlucky, and I think had you been a little more social, you wouldn't have gotten the boot. I would've loved to work with you, had things been different, 100%, but I don't think anything really would've stopped it from happening the way it did.

Sadly someone has to be the first to go in every game, and in this game that was you.  You were foisted into a shark's den with all the experienced and expert players in this game in my opinion, to be fair.  Part of the design here, with the tribe-focused challenges and big starting tribes, was intended to let players find their place within the tribe, but unfortunately I think at this point the ORG-playing ms community is just so experienced that I wasn't quite able to deliver that opportunity, and you suffered the consequences.  I don't think there's anything about you that makes you destined to finish poorly in these things and I wish you better luck next time, if there is one!

I wish I had listened to Fox and had voted out either Royal or Madame at the start.  This was huge blunder #3 for me.  Almost every vote I was a part of took me one step closer to my own elimination.
