[SquishyJess]

Hey guys!! Sorry for the delay but the time is here Russell, Joel, and Kenny you will post your opening addresses to the jury here. The Jury may start making threads when they are ready to ask questions. Please try not to repeat questions. Once Opening Statements are posted and all questions answered then we can reveal the final vote.

You have the right not to ask questions jury members. After a few days of friendly banter, I will set a deadline for votes. You may vote anytime you wish by PM please.

Any questions feel free to ask. Finalists please make your own threads and post your opening statements asap

Hey guys, nice to see you. Just want to say its been fun playing with all of ya this season; tons of drama and twists to keep us on our toes, its been one hell of a ride and I'm glad I got to experience it with a bunch of new and familiar faces.

I came into this game pre-merge with a tribe that was a competitive powerhouse. I managed to work my way to the merge without ever going to a single T.C. and then to add onto that, never got a single vote against me until the F4 from Joel & Jerri. I did anything and everything that I could to set myself up for the best possible chance of winning this game with the alliance that was formed within the first few days of this competition.

A major point of my gameplay revolved around adapting to Joel & Russell's styles and trying to do things that would both be respected and seen as valid reasons to give me the win over them. With Joel I wanted to be strategic without being overly aggressive, with Russell it was to show individualism, both cases I feel I succeeded and will definitely elaborate on when and if I'm given the opportunity to with the questioning.

I'll end this statement now by saying good luck to Joel & Russ and thanks to both them and all the Jury Members for a great season, regardless of how this turns out I did the best I could possibly do and if you don't deem me deserving to win by the end of all of this I'll respect your decision. Looking forward to the questions and may the person win.

Congrats Ken & Russell on getting to this point. Congrats to myself as well. *giggles*

I came into this game with a goal. That goal was to cause as much drama and chaos as possible. For 2 reasons. The first being that this season IS Survivor Squishy 2: Anarchy. We were chosen to play this game BECAUSE we were dramatic. So I wanted to enhance meh skills and make it memorable. Just for kicks. My second goal was to win. This wasn't my first goal because I didn't think I'd be granted a second win, so the anarchy was put first. Don't be mistaken though...I do still want to win.

I played a pretty open game and I think you all should know what I did, when I did it and how I did it. But if you have any questions or wish me to clear something up...feel free to ask.

@jessica...love ya and you're amazing!

Congrats to Joel and Ken....We made an awesome alliance together!!

First i wanna thank our most awesome Hostey!! Thank you everyone who played with me, you all made it an awesome game.

I wanted to play as an alias this game to see if i could possible play a crazy bitch and a nasty game. As it turns out i wasnt able to break my alliance or go back on my word. I Honestly tryed but i just dont have it in me to be a sneaky or dirty player. I honestly believe that you can play a clean game you can still win in the end. So i sit here and am trying to write this out. I am sure some of you are not too happy with me and some may not give a shit about my game. You are prob thinking that i played a rather simple game with no real moves. I myself think i played a pretty good game, with my tribe always being at tribal. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I will answer best i can. Just know i will not bash or talk nasty bout my fellow finalist. We had an awesome alliance and im proud to be here with both Joel and Ken. Good luck Joel and Ken and may the best squishey gamer win!!!!
