For the finalists to post their opening statements.

Wow, What Can I say. I made it to the end. I am very pleased to have gotten this far and am very happy for the friends I have made along the way.

I would like to open up by thanking the host for hosting a great game and to everyone who made this game as fun as it has been.

I think that in an opening statement the best thing you can do is be humble because you know that the jury is going to be very tough haha, with all of their questions. I think I played a good game but it isnt my opinions that will count it is those people on the jury. I am looking forward to your questions and I will be open and honest in all of my answers. Good luck jurors with your decisions and It will be nice to talk to you all again!

First and foremost, I would like to say that I enjoyed playing this game with everyone. I would also like to thank the host for being dedicated and respectful to all of us. I came into this game not knowing what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised. I have played this game to the best of my abilities and can honestly say I left no scenario unexplored. I believe without the help of a key player in this game as well as my sheer determination to win I would not be sitting in this position.

This game was very different from other games I have played in the past because usually I try to keep a low profile to not deem myself as a threat to early in the game because once you are a threat you are gone. However, in this game I started out strong and won the first HoH and first POV. In a sense I think I played this game the way it shouldn't be played. I was a dominant player in the challenges and out spoken about certain issues, two things that usually get people evicted. I told people how I saw certain aspects of the game. So the fact that I am sitting here in the final three is amazing.

Two other factors I think that helped me get this far was my activity and my social skills in this game. I always made sure to be around when important things were going on in the game. I tried to be as active as possible. I competed in every challenge and wrote in my confessional consistently. I even put in my two cents every once in a while.

The second key part of this game, which I feel played a huge role in my success in this game, is my social strategy. Whether we want to admit it or not, this is a social game and if you can’t get a long you are gone. I was always around to make conversation and to really get to know each and everyone of you. I would make jokes and was always pleasant or at least tried to be. haha

I look forward to hearing what you guys think of us and the questions you may ask. Bring the heat because I can handle it!!

Thanks again.

Hello everyone. Good to see you all.

When I came into this game, I wanted to play slightly under the radar. But once things got going, I started to feel like a bit of an outsider since no one was really actively approaching me for alliances or anything. I realized that if I wanted to get to the end, I had to step it up.

Now that I’m sitting here in the final three, I have to admit, I do feel very confidant in the game that I played. I had a solid plan and I stuck to it the best that I knew how. I built relationships, and I won more challenges than anyone else in the house.

I know that I made some strategic moves that may have pissed you off, and yes, I told some lies, but only when I felt I had to in order to further myself in this game. I never once took my eyes off the top spot, and that's why I'm sitting here today.

Some of you know exactly how hard I played. Some of you may not. So, I look forward to answering your questions. I know some of you are upset to have been voted out, and I know that some of you must be feeling very hurt. But I hope we can put our personal feelings aside and realize that this is a game - and in the end, we all want to know that the best player won.

I look forward to answering your questions, and I promise to be as honest as I can.
