A message from Kas

Hello amazing r/thetraitors folk!

This is Kas (the poundland equivalent of a fine waitrose Jaz). I've been stalking away in the subreddit for a while now (as most of us have- shout out to Dan u/zachJayb) and have been completely overwhelmed by everyones support, enjoyment and passion for the series!

Firstly, i wanted to apologise to you all. I know expectations for me were high, but ultimately fell flat pretty quickly. I promise there was at least some logic to every decision I made (including Nathan, who I can only apologise too!). Knowing what I do now its pretty clear that I was never going to last in the game! Either way, I admit that I probably was more of a hindrance than a help for most of the game.

Secondly, as mentioned above, I've been overwhelmed by the support that this subreddit has shown me. Its like having an entire army of Fozias at my back (and thats saying something, our Aunty Fozia is an army in herself!). Sometimes, in stressful situations, people can act erratically. I firmly believe that its not how you act that defines you, but how you respond when challenged by your patterns.

Thirdly, the game! And what a game it is, designed to keep us as players and you as viewers oj your toes throughout. Each person did their best with their roles, and whilst there is controversy about the outcome (how close was Charlotte before The Seer? How excellent did Frankie become once she knew?), Jake and Leanne are without a doubt deserving winners, and are both brilliant humans who played the game like the heroes they are. Likewise, Joe, Tyler and Livi may have struggled with the stress of the Castle, but have all grown so much from it. Livi especially gave the game her heart and soul, and is one of the sweetest people I know.

What are the odds of the group removing one nice, goofy, coeliac, and replacing me with an even nicer, goofier and coeliacer Alexander?! I may have failed you, but we can all agree that I was replaced by something much better.

Finally, the effort to make such a programme is monumental. The production team was huge, and each person made a difference to the journey that I had, and that you've all enjoyed. I want to thank the entire crew for all their hard work, this season was bigger than it has ever been and its been an honour to be part of it!

Much love to all,

Kasim Ahmed (Kas)

Tl;dr- Kas, useless, probs not worth the fuss.

Edit: Quick reread and I forgot to mention- happy to answer any qs about gameplay where I can, so ask away! Its been funny seeing posts of the things asking "why didn't kas..?." and ita things I actually did but didn't quite make the cut! I'll be replying to you all later today :)
