Talk:This Could Be the Heist of the Millennium!/@comment-26485526-20180302231833

Oswald's more than likely going home, although I would love a Jacob boot more. Just because Jacob would be a "meh" winner, whereas Oswald & Will would be more satisfying.

Honestly, I feel like an ass for piling on Jacob. But the fact of the matter is that he played shit strategically until the final 8 or so, and even post merge he followed Oswald's lead. His win would also be incredibly predictable after helping Adrian with his homophobia because that whole story-line just seemed to paint him as such a golden boy, someone that is painted as this perfect specimen that can do no wrong. Yes, Jacob's brought up multiple times that he hasn't been good strategically, but that's JACOB himself, and we are all naturally our own worst critics. The only other person that's mentioned it is Will, but Will thinks he's perfect and that everyone's beneath him, so that doesn't count. Even Oswald just now said to Jacob "It doesn't matter that votes haven't gone your way or anything, because we're still here and we're still in with a chance."

Yes, because being a complete and utter strategic flop for most of the damn game shouldn't matter because you're still here, and it also tells me that the jury's going to be willing to overlook the fact that Jacob's strategic game has been one of the weakest in a long time (I say "one of" because you can't out-stupid Phyllis and Ronnie). It's also almost confirming to me what a "Golden Boy" the edit's trying to portray Jacob as. I'm not necessarily peeved at Jacob, I just for the most part can't stand the "Golden Boy" edits, and it's only becoming really cringe now because the possibility of Jacob winning is so damn high.

I'd much rather Oswald win over Jacob because while Oswald winning at FTC would be predictable at FTC, there'd always be that question of if he's even going to get to FTC because his entire edit post-merge has been CP/MOR underdog that's likely going to get cut sooner or later, whereas Jacob's getting more of the "Golden Boy that can do no wrong" edit.
