Just for fun, let's list some Final 2 scenarios and then everyone can respond and say who they would have voted for to win. Obviously, a lot would be different in these scenarios, but it'll still be fun.

Here's some:

1) Wes vs. Trip
2) Max vs. Laurie
3) Apollo vs. Dan
4) Trip vs. Romeo
5) Apollo vs. Max

2) Max vs. Laurie

1) Wes v Trip - I'd vote Trip. Although their games were similar in style, Trip did it much more effectively than Wes.

2) Max v Laurie -

3) Apollo V Dan - Dan was more solidly reliable than Apollo, but Apollo appears to have developed more relationships. This would be a very close call for me, but I think I'd vote Apollo, ultimately.

4) Trip v Romeo - Trip, hands down. Romeo, I love you bro, but your game was reactive, where Trips was proactive. While I don't like rewarding Trip for his style, I will always reward action over inaction.

5) Apollo v Max -

You don't know much about the game if you thought I was "reactive". Again, you have very little experience with me in the game, so those kind of blanket, generic statements don't carry much weight.

That being said, I would have lost to Trip if I had gone to the end with him most likely.

You're right, but as you say, my observations of your game was limited. Also, I did misspeak - what I meant to say was that your game was *more* reactive than Trip's was (again, as I observed).

Yes, everyone's game was more reactionary than Trip's. These are huge hypotheticals though because its hard to know what people would have down to get to F2.

Very true. There are damned few games that down change when it's down to the wire.

1) Wes vs. Trip
2) Max vs. Laurie
3) Apollo vs. Dan
4) Trip vs. Romeo
5) Apollo vs. Max

2) that would've depended on how the game played out. at the time max got voted out, i didnt have much of a liking for him, but overall i think i would've ended up voting max

3) dan, because i had the same relationship with apollo and dan, only dan put effort into it post merge. plus dan and i weren't as close in the first place so i felt less scorned. i don't feel like there was a whole lot of difference in gameplay between the two

4) would've been a close one for me but ultimately probably would've voted romeo based on his slightly more honest gameplay

5) again, this would've been based on how the game played out, but probably apollo based on how i felt about max later in the game

1) Wes vs. Trip

I would have voted for Trip over anyone but Atreyu, and even that could have changed at FTC. Trip just had a way bigger impact on the game and was always in a bit more control. Oh, and he wasn't voted out 14th. Sorry Wes, I love you and appreciate you anyways mate!

2) Max vs. Laurie

Laurie. As evident by my posts in here, I was never going to reward a returning player. I have no doubt Max would have made an unbelievable argument for himself. He's an amazing wordsmith, but alas, my opinion on returning players is one set in stone.

3) Apollo vs. Dan

Dan. Pretty easy choice for me. I always knew those two were a tight pair and of the two Dan put in way more effort to maintain the semblance of a relationship with me. Sometimes, it's the little things.

4) Trip vs. Romeo

Obviously, I couldn't vote, but Trip would have most likely beaten me unless the same bitterness in the jury existed towards him. I think I could have been on the same level as him skill wise, but perception is a lot in this game and the perception, because of how we both were at original Bonsai, was always going to be that I "followed" Trip.

5) Apollo vs. Max

Apollo. While I have told him I didn't like how he ignored me post-merge, I still give him props for lying low after the merge vote. A good player - and yeah, not a returning one.

6) Apollo vs. Trip

Trip. Bigger, bolder, better.

7) Dan vs. Laurie

Dan. I did, and do, think pretty highly of Dan's game. I don't have the same distaste for Laurie's game as does Trip, but I definitely do not have near the admiration for her that a few others seem to have.

8) Lucy vs. Romeo

I think I could have beaten Lucy mainly because I think I'm a better writer than she is, and that can carry some real weight at FTC. Huge hypothetical though as a ton of things would have gone differently with us in the game.

9) Lucy vs. Wes

Lucy. Wes really did impress me in his second go around - but Lucy was, as evidenced, better in her first.

10) Lucy vs. Rose

Tough one. It's really a toss-up. Rose was smart to put her head down and not make any waves after being blindsided a few votes, but she also was blatantly not going to be in danger as bigger fish targeted bigger fish. So really, circumstance and luck played a much bigger role in her path. I think Lucy would have more actively constructed a way to the end of the game, so I will go with her.

11) Apollo vs. Atreyu

Atreyu. Favorite game by far.

12) Romeo vs. Atreyu

This would be interesting because, hypothetically, for this to have happened we would have had to have pulled off our move at F9 together - me, Rose, him, Laurie and Wes voting out Apollo. I would have survived New Jedi and worked to flip the game, so I don't know. I think I would have had a good chance, but again, it's all about perception.

13) Max vs. Trip

Trip. Second favorite game by far.

14) Dan vs. Trip

Trip. Again, the man would have survived 14 tribal councils in a row if he made it to FTC.

15) Dan vs. Max

Dan.

Based on what I've seen, I'd put Atreyu over pretty much everybody. Under that, I'd say Lucy and Rose. Lucy was playing an amazing game before she got voted out. Rose has been playing a pretty consistent game throughout. Next I'd put Romeo. I know how smart and capable Romeo was after surviving Jedi with him. I don't think I'd vote for a returning player, but I have to say, I really enjoyed Wes' game (it irritated the crap out of me at times, but it was always fun). Max, Daniel, and Apollo are all kind of tied for me after that.

1) Wes
I think I would have went back and forth on this one but in the end I really think I would have went for Wes. In the early stages of the game I saw Wes's game as a horrible mess but sometime after the merge I began to see Wes start pulling it all together and I came to have an appreciation for his game in the end. Plus how fun would it have been to vote Wes over Trip :P

2)Laurie
Much love to Max but I would have given my vote to my favorite Scream Queen.

3) <<Dan would have crushed me, LOL>>

4) Trip
Regardless if he played "with me" or just "played me" Trip was always there. Romeo on the other hand I always felt he just played "at me". I don't feel too bad about saying that Romeo because I know you felt the same way about me, lol. Plus all bitterness aside...Trip played on hellva game.

5) ---- (Would have been a fun "what-if" regardless of the outcome)
