Willem, Julius Caesar, Charlemagne, Mao, and Mansa Munsa: The group of little speech

Man, exile was mostly pretty quiet. I chatted with people a little bit through PM, but most people didn't really chat much. This whole group came through exile with narry a peep, and it was easy to get the active voters to vote everyone out. In fact, these players often voted for themselves due to inactivity. It had the added benefit of putting myself in an assumed position of authority, because it was me, the one active player, followed by a see of inactives. I wonder if these inactive players knew they were getting voted out, and just never returned to the forums and never learned of exile.

Hammurabi

Hamm hamm hamm. Fun name to say. He was cool when the tribes were small, but he voted me out and was generally inactive in exile. Didn't want to vote hi out right away, but eventually did once he showed his inactivity.

Boudica

Can't say much, she had to drop out. Seemed like she didn't go in a pleasant fashion, but I have no idea.

Posted Image
Washington

Washington joined us in Exile, and started out as a cool ally. However, due to inactivity, we had to vote him out. Wish he would have stayed more active.

Posted Image
Lincoln

Lincoln is like the good friend who dies at the inciting incident of a great movie. He gracefully bowed out at the end of exile to let me continue, and I am so grateful for that.

Prez bros 4 lyf.

Tokugawa

Tokugawa was my personal nemesis, which is all on me. Honestly, I would have voted me out in his situation. But he was so forward with voting me out on the first day. When Tokugawa showed up in exile, I made it my personal mission to get him out, as a sort of amazing vengeance. But it really was all so trivial, no one, even Tokugawa, really cared. He did come back as a ghost, though. I wonder why he was chosen. In fact, I was worried he would try to knock me out or vote for me in some manner.

Elizabeth

I remember Elizabeth being somewhat active, but other than that, no recollection. Sorry (shurg).

Posted Image
Catherine

I legit feel bad for voting out Catherine, but it had to be done. She seemed like she wanted to continue, and even made a case for herself, but I went ahead and voted her out.

Augustus Caesar

I didn't get to interact. I know he was the first target, and tried his best to make his case, but as we all know it didn't work out too hot.

Posted Image
Gilgamesh

Believe it or not, I helped organize a vote for him completely due to his lukewarm response at my arrival. While Isabella was excited to see me and message me right away, Gilgamesh responded to my return with "Well that's interesting" and never tried to contact me. I sent out PMs but purposefully not to my old tribe, to gauge response. I didn't get one.

Posted Image
Hatshepsut

Hatshepsut was another really strong player, and someone I could trust. I totally stabbed her in the back, and this elimination formed the two informal tribes. This, more than anything else, put the wheels in motion for the end game.

Posted Image
Genghis Khan

Genghis Khan, man. RIP. He was my strongest ally coming out of exile. He was a funny dude to chat with, and the person I could trust the most. He also knew what he was doing, and if he wasn't knocked out with a trick he would be in the final three. I knew he was the villain of the group, and allying with him was sticking my neck out, but I didn't really care. It probably was for the best, though, to be honest. If he ended up in the final three, he most certainly would have won over everyone else, including over me.

Posted Image
Churchill

Oh man, Churchill. He was my other strong ally (other than Isa and Genghis). I was considering joining him, but he fed me a lie about me being targeted. Once he pulled his stunt, I knew I couldn't trust him. His stunt gave me leverage to steal an ally away from him for his surprising elimination.

Gandhi and Bismarck

Gandhi and Bismark, I have to describe them in the same manner. I only spoke with them briefly, but they were very strong challenge players. In fact, the two of them plus Churchill were a fierce team, and that's one reason it was so prudent to get rid of them. They played the game at such a high level, but unfortunately Churchill's play hurt them as well. Numbers were not on their side.

Posted Image
Roosevelt

Unfortunately, he bowed out at the very end. I would have like to have him help me in the end as another ally, but alas that wasn't able to happen.

Posted Image
Isabella

Once Genghis was gone, Isabella became my new #1 ally. I know we chatted a bit, and she may or may not tried to help me during the very first tribal council. I think she ended up voting for me and not Tokugawa. I didn't really care though. She showed me she could be trust as the game moved on, and I'm happy we made it to the final four together. I owe her for helping me in the end game, especially with Genghis being tricked out.

Justinian

I never did trust this guy. He seemed on the level and I never intended to backstab him, but I was always counting on him scheming in some way. He seemed a bit too forward to be completely on the level, but I don't know. I hope my trust in him doesn't lead me astray in the end.

IT'S ME!

Victoria

Victoria was hard to really get a read on. She honestly seemed like she played the game like I did in a diplomatic sense. Once she turned on Churchill, though, I owed her the world. I would be gone if not for her, so once that happened she in a way replaced Isabella as my closest ally, a close #2 to Isa. I really hope I can get her to the final three. I will do my best to convince Isabella.

I did vote for you and I do apologize for never openly admitting it. I did try to convince people to switch, but no one was really interested in joining me. I didn't want to be pin pointed that early on. I'm so glad you were able to return and I'm very lucky that you chose to work with me :) thank you for your friendship and loyalty after your return. I'm so happy we made it to the finals together!! And congrats on your win :)

Alas, sir, if only you had joined us instead of them. . . (and I can feel the eyes of Kelly judging me for not trying harder to make that happen SHUT UP WHO ASKED YOU), would have made the endgame interesting when we had to try to steal one of Churchill-Gandhi-Hattie from each other.

But I guess since you won, hard to fault you for your choices :)

That was much better then I was thinking it might be from what you said in the reveal thread. I can understand the wide eyed look I was getting from you.
