Hello ladies!
Well after 1 month and 17 eliminations we finally have our final 3. There was never a doubt in my mind that I would get this far, but I never expected to be sitting in between fucking Colour Kid and Two Face!
  
Before I entered this game I knew exactly how I wanted to play. I knew I wanted to influence this game and to stay relevant. I wanted to play a straight forward game and to come across as someone who is honest and loyal. I never wanted to take hold of the game but to play with others on the same level. I didn’t want to be carried through nor over powering and I wanted to be treated with respect and show respect back. In all honesty I believe I have done all of that from start to finish.
Given that the merge was basically presented to Sulaco on a silver platter there isn’t a whole lot of pre merge game that I can claim. However I do believe it was due to my strong social game and networking that got me this far. On Sulaco I found myself to be in the middle of the tribe from the get go. Once Sulaco had settled in and started strategizing I noticed that I wasn’t getting a lot of offers but what I was getting was a lot of information about other players and the game, and as we all know, knowledge=power. With my knowledge and my honest approach to people I was able to form a lot of solid alliances with ally’s who would watch my back and I theirs. I had solid alliances with Storm, Cherry, Babydoll, Noxy, Claire, Mother Russia and Selene. It was these kind of alliances that kept me safe and in the loop and this kind of networking that kept me safe for the duration of the game.
In this game I have tried to pull off a few moves and I will be the first to say that not many of them worked out. However I think the fact that I had the mind and the guts to attempt a move showed how much I wanted to play this game. Despite most of my moves not working out I did always know how to hustle, where my connections were and how to put my neck on the line. Take the Tribal of Fear for instance. I worked my ass off to try and vote two Nostromo girls out. I hustled all 9 Sulaco players to put their faith in me and to come together for this move. I knew all too well that putting my neck out for this move was painting a huge target on my back and that if it didn’t work out I could be in a lot of trouble. One thing that I will say about my game is that I always knew how to keep going. Regardless of a moving failing or an ally getting blindsided, I knew where I wanted to be by the end of the game and that I couldn’t let anything hold me back. If a move failed I would reassess my position in the game and do what I needed to put myself into a better position. I knew that I had taken a big risk at the tribal of fear by hustling too much but the best thing I could have done was shut the fuck up and pull my head back in.
I played a very strong social game and the way I approached it was different to everyone else. I put a lot of my real self into my game. When I engaged with you I spoke to you with a lot of honesty. Even when I was lying I would shield it in honesty and truth to make it more believable. I put effort into engaging with each of you and being forward in my game. I may be wrong but I believe that I was someone who came across as honest, trusting, reliable and loyal. I was incredibly connected in this game to the point that If I felt nervous about a tribal I could simply ask almost any of you if I was going home and you would reply reassuring me that I was safe. It was this kind of networking and playing with respect that got me so far and kept me safe.
I made a point in this game that I wasn’t going to play a personal or emotional game. Despite the amount of people who had been voted out due to spite or bitterness I swore to myself that I wouldn’t play like that and that my focus would be on the FTC. But now that I am at the FTC I do plan on making things a bit more personal. I have been waiting and biding my time for this moment and I will be fighting to win this game but along with that I do have a lot to say.
My position throughout my game always meant that I had options and that I was always able to choose how I wanted to play this game. I always had the choice to play a loyal and honest game and I think that this is something that sets me apart from Mother Russia and Selene. But it’s not just my social game that makes my game different to Mother Russia’s and Selene’s it is the fact that I was the first to find a game advantage. A game advantage that I received no clues to. Also no one expected me to have it, even though both Noxy and Claire knew about it. I also won the two most important immunities in this game and was the first person to make it to final 4 and the final 3.
Unfortunately winning that second immunity wasn’t as impressive as I was hoping it would be considering I won it by default. This brings me to something that really pissed me off which is last night’s round. I completed that challenge feeling proud of the time I got and felt like I had a real chance at winning it but when I saw that I was the only one to complete the challenge I was appalled! It was a pathetic effort to see and to think that we voted challenge threats out, such as Babydoll, Noxy, Alice, Claire and Jess just so they could watch that shit performance last night sickens me! There was not a single fuck given about last night’s round and I feel like it was a huge disrespect, not only to the challenge threats of this game but to the game its self. I think last night alone is enough reason for why I should win over Mother Russia and Selene.
To summarise why I should win this game: I have played the most loyal, honest and strongest social game out of the three of us. I made alliances in this game that allowed me to get deep into this game and also allowed me to network and have options throughout the duration of this game. I found advantages and won immunities and put the most amount of effort out of the three to stay relevant, influential and to get to the FTC, which can’t be said for the two sluts that I am sitting next to tonight. I always tried my hardest to get here I am proud of my efforts and what I have done to differ myself compared to Mother Russia and Selene.
So with that, I only ask one thing of you
VOTE 1 
#WINNINGASXENA!

I have a question about tribal. would I be able to comment on other finalists statements or just questions that are directed at me?
Also with the jurors response, are they only allowed to respond once after they have asked their question or are they allowed to keep responding as long as I keep responding?

Each juror has their own section, so how you respond is up to you. They will get one follow up question but if it turns into a circus I'll lock the section.
As for your individual statements, only you will have access to post there. How you use it is up to you.
