This is Jacob's Final Tribal Council Thread.

All other Jurors should remain in their own threads. Final 3, remember... this is not for you to address each other, but to talk to Jacob. In-fighting amongst the Final 3 should be reserved for the reunion on Monday.

Jacob, you have until Saturday at 8c/9e to post your statements/questions to the Final 3. Remember not to take up too much of their time as they have 10 other jurors to get to. Please no listing or questions requiring novels for answers. You should post all of your statements/questions in your opening post in this thread.

Wendell - I have no words for you. I know your game. I've been with you since day 1. I don't need to know anything, move on to the next juror ;)        Bret and Shirin - so many words. Shock, betrayal, anger, and I think the most important word disappointment. You used me, abused me, and then threw me away like a fkn cheap toy. I would be fine with it if it made any sense at all. Ill start with my original question before I go too much in a rant.. There is one question that permeates in ponderosa, and its one I'd love an answer to, because I try to look at it from your perspective and I don't get it. Your votes at the final 6. I truly do not understand it. I'll break it down from what I'd like to think is an unbiased opinion, and you can correct me if there's anything I'm missing.. You had two options that night and you chose me over wendell to go home. ever since I left I've been wracking my brain to think what was in it for you two, and I generally can't think of anything. Pros to.keeping meI literally ignored half the jury I could win challenges to take out the threats out at 5 and 4you Knew I was locked down with you and I had no other options to work withI never lied to you and you guys knew it. Pros to voting me out????  Remember when I told you I was your only option to win. Looking back at the jury chat it looks like that was the case  So this leaves me with two conclusions and I don't know which one I want to be right 1. You ignored the whole jury that told you wendell was winning.. literally at least half of the whole jury told you to your face wendell is winning and you ignored them when you know we are the ones voting who to win. 2. You wanted wendell to win and you gave up. You said I think we are losing to everyone including Jacob. Why not lose to the best player of wendell? I'd rather keep my ego of losing to the best player in the game than lose to.fkn Jacob who sucked.  So the options are either you both ignored the jury and what they told you to your face or you both just didn't want me to win which personally hurts.  So where am I wrong Bret and Shirin?why shouldn't this move win worst move of the season?

Pros to.keeping me
I literally ignored half the jury 
I could win challenges to take out the threats out at 5 and 4
you Knew I was locked down with you and I had no other options to work with
I never lied to you and you guys knew it.

Pros to voting me out
????

Hi Jacob, I would like to start off by saying that I am not surprised by your reaction, but I hope you can understand why I made those moves. When it came to the Final 6 my thought process was about my placement in the game.

I always knew how close you and Wendell were and I never truly trusted that fact you two were not hiding some devious plan to get you both to the end. I knew that if that were the case, I needed to take one of you out. The reason I went to Shirin about getting you then Jay out is because I know that if you both got to the end here, you would discuss me being a follower to you at some point in the game. I did not want this to be seen as a case, so I took the advantage of the double elimination, public idol for myself, and talking with others to make that plan work so that I would not be seen as a follower.

Your game is one I respected Jacob, and your strengths outdid mine with challenges, that also would beat me in the end. I hope you can see I saw you as a threat more than Wendell because he had not made any huge moves like I would make with my idol and voting you out to prevent stolen credit for moves I made. I then was able to protect myself after that vote with immunity to confirm that next step in my plan with getting Jay out. All just for my game survival.

Thank you for the questions, I appreciate you trying to get a better understanding.
