I dont think she had a big part tho.. Ozzy fucked up himself and Aubrey did what literally anyone else would have and told people that bs he said. He also only told Aubrey bc she was on the bottom so had nothing to do with her social game. Rizo ultimately was the one who decided whether to send ozzy home or not and Cirie was already pushing that to Jonathan bc she wanted him to play his idol (but not go home) so Aubrey was the turning point maybe but certainly not a driving factor imo
disagree that she wasn’t a driving factor. i agree jonathan drove the vote more, but many people in aubry’s position wouldve over-pushed for ozzy to be voted out, but she deserves credit for approaching it correctly by making jonathan and joe feel like it’s their move. plus she made rizo believe her and choose to keep her over one of his closest allies (yes this comes down more to ozzy messing up and anyone would spill here, but once again many players wouldve used this info in the wrong way)
tbh i would argue rizo wasn’t really a driving factor for that vote. i’m still not sure who joe would side with if rizo told him no, but rizo didn’t actively target ozzy (don’t always think you need to be the one “driving” the vote, you can play a strong game by placing yourself as the swing vote, but i dont think that applies for rizo here). and honestly i think rizo should’ve tipped off ozzy
It’s not about Rizo turning Joe, it’s about Rizo not telling Ozzy and deciding to turn on his #1. That was a big move and a good move because Rizo doesn’t win in a final 3 with Cirie and Ozzy so he used them to their fullest extent, built trust with everyone else, and kept the alliance a secret to the end so it’s a better story at FTC
he def doesnt beat cirie, and likely loses to ozzy, so he would need to turn on them after. the issue is the jury is much less likely to give rizo credit for getting rid of them. the jury generally favors those who get someone to turn on their ally as opposed to the one that turns. i think theyre going to view aubry as leading the cirie vote, and jonathan as leading the ozzy vote (also maybe leading the dee vote), making rizo the one who just let his allies go
if he tips off ozzy to play his idol (and maybe switch the target to jonathan for turning on ozzy), he can really claim at ftc he was the main force (like dee telling julie to play her idol). if he hides tipping him off well enough, he can still maintain trust with the others, and then use them to play a much more active role in voting out ozzy/cire. that way he has a convincing story of how he drove all these pivotal moves as opposed to just being convinced to turn on his allies
