Breine wasn't going to win for these reasons so we felt it wouldn't be fair to string him along. Sorry Breine!
Wait, what? So why didn't you just kick me out early on last year instead of "stringing me along" until the FINAL THREE (and Breine, for that matter, who lasted to the final round)?
I don't know why you automatically assume you were/are being strung along. Maybe you have a legit chance of actually winning this thing.

If another popular member had some strong opposition within the staff we'd cut them too. I for one would be pissed if I just spent days jumping through hoops for the staff (which is mostly what this year's contest has been) only to find out later that I never had a shot at all. We didn't want to waste Breine's time or our time arguing about it.
