if you watch their pre-jury videos you can see debbie jason and scot all had their minds already made up on not voting for aubrey, and julia would've always voted michelle. so aubrey would have still lost unless she convinced cydney. cydney said that she would only vote for aubrey if her plan was to get cydney out all along, but aubrey said in the final tribal that it wasn't, and cydney voted michelle.
Yeah, like I don't know how you can say Aubry didn't manage her jury. There's not much else she could have done. The way Michele played wasn't for jury management. She didn't play in a way to win votes. She even said she knew Aubry would win after Tai forced that tie vote. If she was honestly playing to win jury, she would have been like "Now that I made f3 the million dollars is mine".
it was definitely difficult to watch, but i kind of expected it.
aubry would've won jury if it wasn't for the twist. honestly, it was a pretty bad season to bring in that twist, but understandable because of the medical evacs, so meh.
i dislike michelle as a winner because you cannot compare her game to aubry's or tai's. but like, honestly, i feel like i can't say she doesn't deserve it? jury management is a HUGE part of game play, and if you don't manage your jury, IDK if you deserve to win. but honestly i don't even know if bad jury management was the reason aubry didn't win. it came off to me as a bitter jury, i mean hello, the jury had people like scot, jason, nick, and julia. blehk.
just a bunch of bad players on jury. hopefully aubry comes back for another season.
edit: i say aubry would've won the jury bc of neal. he definitely could've convinced the jury.
the final 6 onward was kinda forgettable but the weeks before that was definitely enough to put it in the top 10 overall. Probably only just sneaks in though.
I hope you were being hyperbolic Zach. Disappointing end but this I easily a top ten season for me. And it's much better than redemotion island, one world, Thailand, etc
You can't say people are bitter if they vote someone who THEY thought should have won when were on the outside looking in maybe some people really just liked Michelle's speech etc I highly doubt Debbie of all people would be bitter (Scott and Jason you can make a case for)
scot and jason ignored cydni at ponderosa as well, they're like two bitter manchildren. unfortunate. and debbie didn't vote for aubrey because she Broke Her Word.
"she played a horrible game. she played a defensive game, a game of fear. every move she made was fear based. she didn't do anything. aubrey did nothing, i could not make a case for her. she did nothing to stand out. all she did was carry joe to give herself an extra vote all the time ... it's not to be bitter, it's not to be mean, she just didn't play well. i don't respect her game. cos there was no strategy in it." jason on aubrey lol
Michele did nothing, voting out your closest friend to prove loyalty which didn't even matter because of what happened in the weeks that followed, doesn't mean you deserve a million dollars.
i thought nick voted michelle and debbie voted aubrey lmao wth even debbie was a bitter jury who would've thoguht, it sucks when juries don't vote for the person who played the best game. good on nick for being above it thoguh

Plot twist: It was staged the whole time, every season.
michelle would have been ok with me on seasons with weaker players, or if aubry didn't exist in the finals (i would have still picked cydney over her). aubry losing was a massive gut punch when she obviously played so much better of a game and lost to 4 bitter jury members (julia voted her friend like joe so whatever).
I think the dumbest thing is that Cydney and Debbie voted for her over Aubry. Cydney chose to reward loyalty when she controlled the whole game with Aubry blindsiding person after person....?? And Debbie is Debbie. Still love them though. Ugh.
I think you're not giving Michelle enough credit where credit is due she really did help herself with her social game avoiding votes because people thought she was loyal she even proved it by voting her closest ally out she didn't do much pre merge because she was never at a tribal
Tai got 3rd like he should have after that final 4 vote scott hit it on the money he had the most power in the game and it did basically nothing for him
Aubry had the best strategical game hands down I agree but Michelle had great jury management and the 'scott and jason were bitter' speech is downright stupid because of course some people are gonna be bitter it's emotion and it's how the game is played Michelle knew the cards she had (for the most part) and played them the best she could by squeezing into a tight group
yeah, like how did she play a good game. "she got better as the game went on".
Well hello, she did nothing, then she voted Julia off. Then she got a free pass the next week because people didn't want to do what Tai wanted cuz he was too bossy about it. Then she got a free pass cuz Joe had to be med evac'd, and then she won final immunity zzzzzzz
