Dave Thomas, Founder of Wendy's
The most epic fail of the game came from you. However, you came around and saved us for some reason. After that, you became the figurehead of an alliance that people got afraid of. Thanks for sharing an epic moment with us and also for correcting that mistake. In hindsight, you probably should have eliminated us that round.

C-3P0 & R2-D2(Droids)
Boy, you guys got off to a scary good start during the spam challenge. You really showed some great skills there. At early merge, we considerd you our #1 option to go to the end with. But then suddenly, you started making moves and we realized that you wouldn't be beatable if you kept up the game you were playing. During that crazy TC, we realized that we had to let you go. Even then you almost made it through, if Bard had communicated about his idol a little better. You guys were amazing players, but we're taking that Best Hydra title.

Bonobo
Bonobo, the untouchable. That's what you were for a long time. We started off okay on the early tribes. But I think we all knew that we weren't going to be the closest allies. We had a hard time trusting you because you were such a floater. We've spent a loooooong time discussing how we would ever get rid of you. And then that great moment came. After you told us "we can stop being fake friends", we got swapped into a tribe where we had Bees and Avocado. This was the perfect time to finally get rid of you because another moment might not have presented itself. So we threw the challenge and got you out of the game. It was one of the greatest moves of our game, and we're very proud of it.

Bard
Bard, our closest ally from the D&D group. We had a really good connection early game, I think. At merge, I think we say you more as a reason people would target us than an actual ally. But boy, you did have a lot of impact on the game. The idol play, where you told us 5 mins before the end of TC, ended up in Hare splitting the vote between Maggie and Droids(see quote). We had to do major damage control and after that, you eventually got voted out and we were saved. You've played a great game and we were super worried you would make it to the end somehow and beat everyone.

Maggie Smith
Maggie, we both tried to get each other out. We took a shot that ended in a tie. You took a shot that barely missed when Bard went home. It's amazing that you were able to listen to reason after all of that. And I appreciate you a lot for doing so. If Avocado doesn't play selfishly, you survive that vote and who knows what happens. I would have loved to see a game where we meet early on.

Bees
Bees... What a ride it's been. After we realized Droids wasn't an option to go to the end with, we put all of our eggs in your basket. We desperately tried to make you realize that you were our number 1. And you were! Until you tried to vote us out. I still don't understand why you didn't want to work with us. It was the perfect combination. On the other hand, you did prove you were a great ally by handing us the item when you got voted out. Which we used in an epic way. I'd like to think it was a winner move. We'll see if it turns out to be that way. Anyway, thank you for a great game, you were a key part for us.

Cleric
What a crazy game it must have been for you. You were voted out three times. Despite that, we tried to make things work, but in the end, you ended up screwing up some of our plans. I can imagine it's hard to see a winning path when you've been voted out twice already. I hope you did enjoy the game a lot. I remember liking you when we first got to talk, but due to a conflict of interest, we had to cut you. We also made the move to get you out in the end, so sorry about that. We needed the most options to get to the end, and everyone was always going to take you there.

Avocado
I just had to quote this, because it shows how much you've changed throughout the course of this game. At the start of the game, you were everybody's friend, making great decisions and you would be anyone's winner pick at that point. I didn't think you would have a shot at getting to the end, just because nobody would want to take you that far. Even we didn't want to at that point. Then, as the merge progressed, you became more and more chaotic and you've made some horrible moves. It made us want to get you to the end. I think we've made some great moves: Throwing to kill Bonobo, yeeting Grogu out of the F5 TC. And every time, we had to convince you to come with us. You were the perfect meat shield for a long time and everyone saw us as a number for you. But we weren't.
Aside from that, we do appreciate you a LOT, you were a great ally most of the times and you were one of the most (if not the most) likable players in this game. Thanks for a great game. I hope you can find peace in the fact that you've finally made it to FTC so you can play a more relaxed endgame next time. Hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have.

Dark Rey
Dark Rey... I really liked you from the first couple of messages we shared. Unfortunately, I think the game put us on different sides and we ended up wanting you gone for most of the endgame. Hare told me numerous times it was impossible to get rid of you, and it's proven true. No matter how hard we tried to get you out, nobody listened until it was too late. It's a miracle that we ended up making it to the end together. Thanks for a great game, hop you've had fun!

Grogu
Grogu, you've played such a great game. You came in late, on the outside of a tribe and payed the price for it. But you came back. We took you in when nobody else seemed interested in that and then you connected to so many people that it got scary really fast. We knew we would have to cut you down before the end, but you were so connected nobody would take the shot. You've made some great moves but in the end, we outplayed you at F5, and I hope we also did at F4 to make you the final member of the jury.
I wish you hadn't been voted out when you were, because you've proven that it was totally undeserved. Thanks for a great game, for saving us when you did, and for making us shit our pants a few times at the end. You've made this game super interesting and I cannot thank you enough for that.

The Hare
Hare, you were great. You were amazing. You've put so much into this and I cannot thank you enough for that. I was really excited to play with you when we were paired up, because I had heard great things about you. And you've delivered in a way I didn't think was possible.
Like you said, if I had to play this by myself, I wouldn't have made it past the first couple of TC's, because I can't be around as much as I want to. I loved our morning discord chats where we strategized and planned out the next moves. You were the Face of our hydra, you did most of the PMing and most people are probably going to remember you when they look back at this game. I was the manager, providing information and strategizing behind the scenes, while doing a lot of chit chatting, aside from some crucial chats where we needed to get some extra effort in.
We were on the same page since day 1 and we've never had a disagreement in what we were going to do that we couldn't work out. It's been a great game and if this was to be my last game, I can be extremely happy with how it went. Thank you for the experience, you're really an amazing person. You've put everything in this game.
You deserve this win.
