Welcome to the mobile version of the 'vote for Ella' speech.

 

Because the original version could lagg and bugg on your phone I made a special one for your phone. Enjoy!

The opening statement

Before I start, I know you guys would rather see me in the jury than standing here at F2. I have a lot to explain to y'all because a lot of my gameplay hasn't showed yet. I've played 200% since the first minute of this game and yet I never quit with it. In my 'vote for Ella' speech I'm going to explain all my moves, why and how. I'll take you guys into my game to show you all what I've been trough and as last I'd like to make a shout out to you all because what a hell of a season has it been. Time to start.

My Game & Moves

So, I came to this game with only one goal. Winning. I wouldn't be happy with a jury place and even though it's risky to say it I won't be that much happier being runner-up. I've worked hard to stand here and I will show y'all how I did it. At day one I started to talk with everyone of the Khizi tribe. I had to make social bonds which could help me later in the game. I got very close with Jared and Jessica and we started to bond very quickly. I knew Jessica played in Greece and that's why I looked a lot on threads of that season to get to know more about her. Jared was #TeamWentworth like I am so that was easy to bring up if we weren't talking about the game. Later I got close with Hannah, who was extremly likeable and into the game. She reminded me to myself, playing hard already on the begin. I got a conversation later with Joseph because he sent me his confessional by accident stating he had a solid alliance with Hannah. Even though I barely talked to Joseph, I targeted Hannah. Hannah would never see that coming since she was in a solid alliance with Jared and Joseph trying to send Jessica home. Organizing our first vote felt good but also scary. I knew that people who are playing hard at the very begin could be gone as first. But I took the risk and it work perfectly. Hannah was sent home.

 

Me and Joseph switched to Baku 2.0 where I got to meet a lot of great people. It was also the start of a amazing time in my game. The Ella-Clifford-Austin alliance. Austin wasn't that close with us in the begin but me and Clifford got connected at the first day of the swap. I heard I got targeted by Joseph the same day bc he thought I had a idol in my bag. Honestly, I wish it was true since I looked for it since day 1. But never found it. Anyway, to put my *ss out of the trouble I talked with Joseph, stating we had to work together instead of trying to target each other. He agreed very quick and we moved on. I got the feeling a idol was with us in the camp. With that I mean, someone had it. I was pretty sure that Bryce or Jaylen found it and I was like; we have to target one of them. Jaylen and me got very close since the begin of the game because he knew my sister very well. But we never talked game besides he thought I was the target of the vote. So I started a conversation with Clifford, trying to put the target on Jaylen since he could be very dangerous later in the game and I thought he had a idol. Clifford agreed very fast and we brainstormed how we would get others to vote with us. I knew that if we told Felix to vote Jaylen our plan would go wrong. So we got Nick and Austin to vote with us. Because Clifford had a deal with them not to target each other we had easily 4 votes against him already. And we had Nifty, who agreed with voting Jaylen. Jaylen went home, blindsided. But yet I'm not 100% sure if he had the idol or not. Because Bryce was the best friend of my boyfriend I wanted to let him know why and how we blindsided Jaylen. He was fine with it, stating that we'd still work together in the future.

 

Then we got swapped again. I got placed in the new sheki tribe along with Austin, Nick, Nifty and Hunter who I never got to know in the game. Austin and I got more connected to each other and I felt like a big friendship started while the contact with Nick got nothing better. We won the first two challenges and then we got the auction. Before the challenge I heard from Nifty that Hunter was gunning for me. I was like; what the heck why? So I talked more and more with Hunter and later he stated that he wanted Austin gone. I talked with Austin about this and we figured out that if we lost the challenge one of us could be pretty gone. So I told Austin we had to spend full 500 dollars on the covered items because it could been a idol. I thought that plan would be pretty good. But instead of getting good items, I got horse brains and Austin got a dark pearl. Which meant, a vote against him will cast at our first tribal we had. Anyway, we won thanks to Hunter and because of our dumb rewards we weren't the target like Jared was with his light pearl. The sunshine after the dark... well I forgot how to say that actually but yeah xD.

 

Because we got placed on the same camp with Baku and Khizi I talked with Rob and Jake R who both looked very nice but also very dangerous. I heard from Clifford that Jake R-Rob-Jessica-Jared-Nick was a thing and we had to be prepared of a 2 alliances war. Honestly I wanted that freaking much. Even though I never wanted to be in danger I made a amazing plan for merge. My plan was to play under the radar to don't look like a threat at all and easy to beat at F2 so people would take me to it if I didn't win immunity challenges. The first vote at merge was a hell. I wanted to vote out Nick but I had to make sure I wasn't in danger. That's why I got part of the sloppy seconds (after asked by Nick) and Rebels. Nick came to me saying that Clifford had alliances with people and that I'd be in danger for the upcoming vote(s). I knew that wasn't true and acted dumb just to give him a good feeling. At the same time I got close with my Khizi bae's Jessica and Jared. It was like I saw my brother and sister again. I got so close with them so it gave me a safe feeling they were close to Nick. I thought I could believe them. I also made a fake idol (which was probably my worst move in this game). I wanted to give Rob the feeling he was going. It was a test to see if they believed me or not. Rob played it which meant he actually didn't feel safe. But then, Austin got blindsided with Nick's idol. I was so confused and at the same time pretty mad. Austin was very close to me. Austin went home and I kinda felt that people were kinda mad at me for not voting Austin. Even though I told the sloppy seconds I was still with them. I knew they never believed me but I had to try something to put myself out of the dangerzone and to be not a target. The Rebels; Clifford, Nifty, Felix, Joseph and me continued to work together. We worked together so well. Me and Clifford planned the blindside for Nick. Clifford had still a idol on his bag and Nifty had the vote spy. So as a group we decided to give the idol to Nifty. He would use the vote spy on Hunter (who was the last one to vote of their alliance) and then he'd use the idol on the person who got targeted. The person was Joseph. So with a played idol, Nick went home and for my feeling one of the best players left the game area.

 

We're heading to the most darkest time of this game. The elimination of Jessica. Because the sloppy seconds found out I was the one who flipped and to vote out Nick I was afraid I'd be targeted for the next vote. I had to put myself in a good spot and to win the next immunity challenge. The 24 hour endurance challenge. I think the most hardest endurance challenge in Azerbaijan. So I got a bad start but later I got better and better and took a big lead. I saw Rob was very close to me every time and I had to win this one. And I won! I got so happy but also it got hard for me. It was obvious that the target would be Rob. So I told the Rebels that Rob was a easy vote but we had to make a unexpected move. Jessica-Jared-Ella alliance was tight since the begin of the game but I felt we kinda broke our alliance after I flipped even though I wanted to work with them both. But you can't promise everyone you work with a final 2 spot. So I talked a bit with everyone, asking with they wanted and I heard that it'd be Nifty vs Jessica. We had still 5 people in the rebels which meant we had the numbers. But we voted not with 5 people for Jessica. We did with 6! Jared voted with us and showed me loyalty. But Jessica got very mad at me. I'm still sad about it because I felt I didn't deserved to be insulted. It turned out in a catfight and too bad she blocked me. Jessica, if you read this... this vote was never personal because if I had respect for anyone in this game it was for you, girl. You were my girl in this game. So I really wanted to explain you this. Anyway, time to move on.

 

The game changed in a positive way for me after Jessica's rant. I got closer with Rob, me and Clifford had amazing conversations about everything and anything, me and Felix got closer and felt we'd be solid and I got close with Nifty more and more. I felt like I got some good friendships now and it was pretty great to talk with people not about the game. Me and Jared talked about everything and anything. But the good mood changed in a horrible one after Joseph decided to create a new alliance to take out Clifford, Felix and me. He had Rob, Jared, Nifty and himself while me, Clifford, Felix and Hunter who didn't made sense to be not involved. It looked like it'd be a 4-4 situation. After some weird conversations I decided to talk with Nifty. I told him that we were voting Hunter. We had not to tell him to vote for Joseph because if he was with him he could destroy our game. I knew Jared was voting Clifford which left Joseph and Rob voting for Felix. And yet again I wasn't the target and I played as sneaky as I could to get myself into final seven. Joseph went home, without talking to me about anything so I felt like he didn't care about me. Funny tho because I never lied to him about anything. I have to be honest about this, Joseph wasn't my favorite in this game because until his move against Clifford, Felix and me, he acted as a goat. But I liked him, I really did.

 

At final 7 I was pretty sure I'd place very high in this game. I had Clifford, Felix, Jared and even Rob who trusted me more and more. But at the same time, he got more dangerous. He had the social/challenge skills. He was pretty good at like everything. I had the choice to stay with Clifford, Felix, Nifty and Hunter (who joined our alliance) or to go to Rob and Jared. I told Rob I'd thought about flipping to them. And to be honest, I've thought about it for a hour. But I knew that wouldn't be the right thing to do. We even never would get the numbers. So, I told Rob I didn't wanted to vote with them. I was honest to him, not going to blindside him or backstab him. Just saying it right in his face because I cared about him a lot. There was also nothing he could do against me so it was easy to do. But I felt bad for voting him out. Nick and Rob were so into the game and they played a fantastic game. But if I didn't cast my vote for them I wouldn't be sitting here. It's indeed that simple. So Rob went, leaving us 5 against Jared. And I was like; what will happen now? Because Jared and me got so tight... why the hell would I vote him out?

 

So, we made it to episode 14 and yet I had no votes against me. I was pretty proud to be so much up for elimination and not getting a single vote or being targeted. But that changed after Jared won immunity. And because it was final six, I decided to take the lead in this vote. I knew I had no votes against me but I wanted to play it hard in public. So I told Nifty that I was voting him and that the others were voting him as well. We got really to the point fast with everyone. Nifty was pretty cool about it, of course he tried to stay. But why was it Nifty and not Hunter or Felix? Because first, I was more loyal to Clifford and Felix and Hunter was more easy to beat at final tribal council that's why my choice was you. And since the Joseph drama I lost my trust in you. I got the vote from Nifty, making it 1 vote against me and not 0. But I felt okay. It was a sign of respect in my eyes. And so... our amazing Nifty left the game.

 

We're nearing the end of my long game & moves topic. Now we're arrived to the final phase of the game. The final five with two big moves. Eliminating my two closest allies Clifford and Felix. I knew Clifford would win this game if he reached the final tribal council and Felix was very goot at challenges so the chance he'd go to FTC was extremly high. So at final five me and Felix talked about taking out Clifford. Felix had still a idol and we'd play it on Jared since Clifford, Hunter, Felix and I were together and it'd be obv to vote him out. But Felix and Jared voted Clifford. At the start of the alliance of me, Austin and Clifford we promised each other never vote for each other (to be eliminated). So I stayed loyal to that but we never made a deal about idoling each other out. So Felix used the idol on Jared and big papa Cliff left the game. It sucked because he was my closest ally and I feel like it'd be so great to be with him here but it'd be impossible to win.  Anyway, it was final four and Jared won immunity. The war started between Hunter and Felix. And I was in the middle of it. But if I had to choose to be with it in final three I'd choose Hunter even though Felix was one of my closest allies and best friends in this game. It sucked to come to this decision but if I wanted to win I had to take him out. And it was my last chance to do. So I wanted to explain it Felix but after I voted for him I had to download the new iOS 7. It was 3 A.M or something and I thought, let's wait for it. But I actually fell asleep and when I woke up I saw the results and I was like; NOOOO. So I got a rant from Felix and I told him I'd explain his elimination to him. So in short words: You were my closest ally left in the game yet you were the biggest threat besides Jared. But he won immunity so the only choice to vote out was you because I thought Hunter was more easy to beat.

 

Then, final immunity challenge. If I didn't slept four hours I'd actually won that FIC challenge because I got second in idol challenge. And if I did a little bit more my best in bird challenge I'd win with a big score. But that didn't happen. Maybe better because I honestly didn't knew what I had to do if I won. Taking Hunter with me because he was more easy to beat or Jared who was my mate since first minute of Azerbaijan? I think I'd still take Jared with me. Even it's hard to beat him I think I played a better game overall than he did to be honest. So now I'm standing here. Austin, Nick, Jessica, Joseph, Rob, Nifty, Clifford, Felix and last but not least Hunter. I'd like to show you one more thing before I continue to my next topic.

 

Just before merge I made a statistic of people who had alliances with each other. And to be honest, I was pretty right. I also made the targets who were up at that moment. Enjoy looking at it because it took me long to make it even tho it looks not that 'beautiful.'

Time to convince you all to vote for me

Time to convince you  to vote for me to be the Sole Survivor

As much as I love Jared, I think I've done more in this game than he did. Of course I explain you everything I did already but now in a list I'll explain you everything I did. Let's hope it's enough to convince you all to vote for me to be the Sole Survivor of Survivor: Azerbaijan. 

 

~ Since day one I played the game hard. I strategized every hour of my life since the begin of this game. Worrying about who had to be voted out now and then, looking for idols and guessing the right castaways and  doing my best in challenges.

 

- I got the social skills. I got everyone on my side for my feeling since the very begin. Jared, Jessica but also Hannah and Joseph who never even worried about voting me out before the swap. At the swap I was the target in the begin and I saved my own *ss by targeting the most dangerous player in our tribe named Jaylen.

 

- I got the challenge skills. Endurance was my thing. I gave 200% in endurance challenges yet I didn't won the idol challenge because of getting no sleep in two days. I wasn't very good at the most flash games but when I had to do good at some I tried as much as I could. Overall, I'm happy to see that even I didn't win immunity I was close sometimes. But sometimes I was soooo bad.

 

- Even though there has been like 100 idols in this game I've never had one and never got used one on me or the person who wanted to vote me out. I think I'm one of the few who hadn't at merge except for Jessica, Hunter and Austin. Jared got saved by Felix with the idol of him after being told by me to do that. Tho we made the whole plan together. Jared also used a idol at Baku 3.0. Which means I came here without getting new chances with a idol.

 

- From all castaways, I got the least amount of votes against me (along with Jake R who got idoled out) and I think that prooved something. During merge everyone was targeted except for me. I've never been on the chopping block except for Nifty's vote even he knew he would go home. Jared was targeted a few times at merge.

 

- I organized almost all of your elimations/blindsides at merge. Some were easier to handle than others. Like Felix, Clifford and Jessica's blindsides were pretty tuff for me to do but I had to, to sit here. I have to say, I did it not in my own. Me and Clifford were obv the powerhouses of the season if you ask me. I also made good moves along with Felix.

 

- Pre merge I organized the votes if I was up for elimination. The Hannah vote, also saving Jessica from being almost voted out. And later at Baku 2.0 voting Jaylen to put myself out of danger.

 

- I made over 140 confessionals during this game. Haven't count them since episode 14 but the hosts and contestants who will handle the confessionals will have a big task to do for my confessionals. After I talked with someone I wrote a confessional. After I heard something I wrote a confessional. After results (challenge/TC) I wrote a confessional. I even called myself the confessional queen.

 

- Besides the moves I made, being not targeted, not using idols and having strong friendships I got very hated. I got hated by most of the jury and I got hated by most of the VL. I got told by people who defended me in it. Because of that I felt not confident about my game. I had evenings I was thinking 'why am I doing this? The jury and the VL dislikes me. I have no shot at winning'. But I kept fighting for my spot and continued playing the game.

 

- I've been trough a lot. Like, getting shit on me from the people I loved in this game and hearing I was a bad player just for playing the game. That actually hurt me. I only wanted to play a big game, to make moves and to be sneaky to be not a target. That's what I survivor has to do to be the winner.

 

- And to end with this topic, I think I have the outplay - outwit - outcast since I did everything what a Sole Survivor has to do. And if I can say this in public, I'm proud on myself on doing this. 

Shout out's

I felt like you guys deserved this. Our season got called as one of the best ones and we all brought something to the game. So here's a shout out to everyone. (and the pre-mergers are in there too!)

 

A is from Alex. Alex got the first boot, what nobody understood. He took it with a smile, and left the game in style.

 

H is from Hannah. Hannah was a baby, and a good looking lady. Playing the game on top, never trying to stop.

 

T is from Tom. Tom played hard, but didn't made a great start. Even he is a beast, he's always in for a feast.

 

A is also from Angie. Angie haven't spoked that much, people asked me if she was the grudge. But if you got nearer, you saw she actually looked good in the mirror.

 

J is from Jaylen. Jaylen was a threat in the game, and took all the fame. Shining in the spotlights after leaving the rest, taking his elimination as the best.

 

M is from Minke. Minke who got loved by everyone, wasn't easilly done. Didn't improved her second chance, she got everyone to love her in a lance.

 

J is also from Jake N and Jake R. Two Jakes who got voted off in bother, got right eliminated after each other. They may placed low, they still stole the show.

 

B is from Bryce. Bryce was very proud and brave, getting people to be almost his slave. But taking care of them as well, he'll be more popular than Adele.

 

A is also from Austin. Austin who got beat easily in Mario Kart, made in this game a big start. After he left we all sobbed, because Austin got total robbed.

 

N is from Nick. Nick played gorgeous game, left others to be kind of lame. Wanted to win this game so bad, he deserved a better place than he actually get.

 

J is also from Jessica. Even Jessica was really quiet, she hated all the riot. But being a friend of everyone, you never let you self down.

 

J is also from Joseph. Joseph thought he was a goat, though he was always on board. Trying to make one big move, was the reason he had to remove.

 

R is from Rob. Rob was sure about his gameplay, and tried everything to stay. With his mind on zero, he left the game as a hero.

 

N is also from Nifty. Nifty was really active, editing the wikia every time made him also attractive. He was also great at challenges, you could almost talk about damages!!! (hahaha kidding bae)

 

C is from Cliffy, Cliff and Clifford. Clifford was the big papa of the show, this game got better with his flow. Being seen as the main threat, was the reason he's not standing but taking a seat.

 

F is from Felix. Felix was without worrying about it the best challenge player, you never actually saw him as a prayer. On his face he had a kind of a grin, until he was a candidate to win.

 

H is also from Hunter. Hunter got photoshopped into a pig, he laughed and didn't even sigh. Got robbed before the final, and missing this very last trial.

 

It's not really been a real shout out but it was just a fun rhyme thingy I wanted to do just to make my long speech to come to a funny and good end because besides I played the game hard, serious and sneaky I was always in for a good talk and I wanted to make friends. 

The end of my speech

Like a wise young lady, named Luna Lovegood once stated "If not always in the way we expect". I'm going to keep positive. I know that before I published this speech the majority of the jury liked Jared more than me. But I worked so long on this speech, I spent so much time on the game I played. And I hope I'll get rewarded for that. I can't wait for your jury speeches and to answer your questions. Feel free to ask me everything and to give me a chance to get your jury vote. Best of luck, loves Ella! <'33.
