To Helen and Brian, We are at FTC where you make a cse for YOUR victory, but you seem to be a tribe of two trying to vote out, Penny, why shouldn't i reward her for having to work extra at FTC?
You shouldn't reward her because the entire reason she has "extra work" at FTC is her own doing. It isn't because we're trying to gang up on her, it's because she's been difficult to work with, and now, she's trying to mischaracterize everything that has happened in the sense that the plans that she came up with (many of which failed, were naive and blind to reason, or outright ignored the opinions of others) and forced on us by refusing to do anything besides her own idea (which is the very reason that Ted totally left Erin/Penny's side and approached Rob/Christy/Joanna to vote Daniel out since Penny wasn't willing to compromise after hours of explanation that we'd lose Ted), and then claiming that she's created the heavens and earth for saving us with it (if it worked, that is; it didn't work for Erin -sadface-). Also, much of the things that she's taking credit for or faulting comes down to the blind luck of who to play an idol on, or preparing for if one even exists.
The case for my victory is that, between Brian and I, I was the one that was more instrumental in coming up with the plans that were executed, demobilizing groups that could have teamed up to eliminate us. I was the one that talked more to the other players so that those plans could be implemented, and I performed better in challenges. That's a summary, to enhance what I've already described in my former statement, but would be happy to provide more detail and distinction to you or other jurors upon request.
