Just to discuss more about my presentation: just because I use casual language and sometimes come across as a dudebro doesn't mean that I'm speaking impulsively all the time. I might be more laid back IRL and outside of this game but I can assure you that everything I say to people here is thought out. This is part of why I would sometimes intentionally take a bit of time to respond. I have to think about what I'm saying to which person and how that's going to advance my game.

I'd disagree with this assessment - I only started expending large numbers of votes after that round. This was my voting history:
R1 - 6 on STD (45 remaining)
R2 - 1 on Cheery (44 remaining)
R3 - 1 on Shrek (43 remaining)
R4 - 1 on DN (42 remaining)
R5 - 3 on IPS, 1 on Vija (38 remaining)
R6 - 5 on Flum (33 remaining)
R7 - 1 on Vija (32 remaining)
R8 - 2 on Aronis, 2 on myself (28 remaining)
R9 - 10 on Xofelf (18 remaining)
R10 - 1 on Shrek, 2 on myself (15 remaining)
R11 - 1 on Mallow, 1 on D3f (13 remaining)
R12 - 13 on Shadow (0 remaining)
R13 - X_X
I was playing extremely conservatively with my votes prior to forming the alliance with Empire. I undercommitted on basically every premerge vote to the point where using 2 and 3 extra votes in R5 and R6 respectively still had me above the supposed alliance average. My only big vote dumps were on Xof and Shadow and both I only went anywhere near that high because I was thoroughly convinced that Empire's votes would essentially be my votes at the end.
You call that conservative? Oh please, get on my level. I didn't use more than a vote until the round I died

And everybody knows you did that in the last game, too. You should switch things up!

Live reveal of what we all look like or something? I need to find a picture of me.

Y'all, this has been such a blast to run. Thank you for your patience, and more importantly, thank you for playing your hearts out.

From the very first round, things were absolutely insane.
Let me walk you back there. FIFTY SIX votes went on one person, with two other people using all their votes in the first round. That saw STD leave the game, and this game's exciting twist--immunity--left unused.

Then, in the next round, there was a dramatic reversal. Significantly fewer votes were used, as people chose to be more conservative. This let a coalition of voters take control, and Cheery Dog was the second casualty of the game. Still, immunity was left back with me, going to no one!

Round three saw a concerted effort to get out VashtaNeurotic, with FIFTY votes used. Plus, for the very first time, there was not a tie for the second-most votes, meaning that SHREK won immunity, and couldn't be voted for.

The game swung in cycles on occasion, though, because the next round was far more conservative. Just eleven votes were used to take out Deathnote, and the tie for second place meant that SHREK retained immunity.

In another relatively conservative round, Iprobablysuck was tragically taken out with nineteen votes, and confusion amongst people on the outs meant that SHREK had immunity for the third straight time!

The final round of the prejury saw some big moves, however, with Fluminator receiving 26 votes, and Xofelf right behind with 18 votes. Instead of putting her in the danger zone, however, it put her in the power position for the next round, as XOFELF had immunity!

Vijarada was the first casualty of the jury when the voting blocs shifted, and he received seventeen votes. Meanwhile, Vijarada's random votes only ensured that XOFELF would retain immunity.

what do you mean 'concerted' i just dumped all of my votes on him because i knew he was lying to me

The next round saw a variety of different strategies to manipulate the votes, one of which succeeded! Aronis was taken out with thirteen votes, and SHADOWEH took home immunity.

Monty promised me feedback about what prejudices learnt, and since I can't be bothered reading it, I will add that I learned nothing from this game.

One of the two big immunity winners of the game was sent home next as Xofelf was taken out with fifteen votes. The only other person to receive votes, MCMENNO, took home immunity!

As sharks began swirling in the water, Shrek, who had zero votes remaining, was taken out with just eight votes, while CAPTAINMEME engaged in a clever strategy to win immunity!

Votes started coming out of the woodwork in the next round. McMenno, having freshly lost immunity, was unceremoniously sent home with fifteen votes. This allowed MALLOWGENO to take home safety in the next round.

In one of the most unified efforts since the game had begun, Shadoweh was attacked with an onslaught of votes, 32 to be exact, and just couldn't survive. Her loss was D3F3ND3R's gain, though, as he won immunity!
