FALLEN COMRADES STATEMENTS


Congrats to the four of you for getting here! Just like how they do the Rites of Passage/Fallen Comrades
on SURVIVOR ........ so do we.



~ Many have gone before you. Some of them you played with. And some of them you may have never chatted with much,
aside from the first few days of the game. ~



Please say whatever you want here as a tribute to each person who was a part, big or small, in how you got here. You can say whatever
you want. It's up to you. But please acknowledge everyone regardless of if you were on different tribes
.


*I'll publicly post everything the four of you say in your Fallen Comrades statements. Ponderosa, the Jury House, & Lurker Lounge
will be able to see it as a public post I'll add to the board.*



I'm also putting together a video for this. So, I need your Fallen Comrades statements posted ASAP. If you do it by tomorrow tonight - I'll be thrilled.
If you absolutely cannot get this done Monday night, please at least have it posted here no later than 6:00pm Central Tuesday night. I would like to
have the video finished by Tuesday night, and I'm hoping we can have our Final Immunity Challenge sometime Wednesday evening as I'll discuss
with each of you regarding our timeframe.



~ THANKS AND CONGRATS AGAIN! ~

I'm sorry, what?

Did you forget there are FOUR of us left?


IS THIS A FINAL 3?!?!?!



Because if so I am not prepared for that. Like I know I speculated about it like weeks ago, but yeah. Not ready for a F3 here.



OMG, freaking out a little.....

Not final. Just initial thoughts.
This is tough in an open ID game. And it shouldn't be, because I don't have much ass kissing to do, as I will probably be JOINING the jury.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Can't believe it's already time for Fallen Comrades. I feel like this game has been going on forever, but also can't believe it's almost over. How can I go back to real life in less then a week?!

As always, Brobst, this game has been amazing, and you always impress me with how much time and effort you put into everything. It's always an honor to play, but even moreso with all these ALL STARS.

And to the other members of the final 4.... Colby, Greg, Andrea... SOMERLED... #teamhot... Couldn't ask for a better, more deserving group to be with.


SHANE- Was looking forward to getting the chance to play with you, and I'm sorry it didn't work out. Maybe I'll run into you in an anonymous game one of these days...

JOEL- Not much to say, since you never said much to me. So uhhh... thanks for quitting and helping me get one round further?

RICH- See above.

SHANNON- You were gone before I got the chance to know you, but were always friendly. And anyone willing to share TEOS Pearl Island chapter with me is good in my book. :)

BRUCE- You are always so entertaining to play with, but you always make the mistake of playing too hard too fast. It makes it hard to know when to trust you. But I really did enjoy our strategy talks early in the game.

JOHNNY- You are one of my favorite people I got to know in this game, and it sucks that I had to lose you so early. I don't know why Kim and Lill had such an issue, because Johnny was the BEST. I had so much fun chatting and talking strategy with you, and I look forward to talking more when this game is all over. You were gone way before your time, totally screwed by a swap. Still wish we could have met up at the merge.

DESMOND- What can I say? You'll always be Judd to me. You know I love you, and you are one of my favorite people to ever play this game with. You are a chaos player with a heart of gold, and the game is always more fun with you than without you. I feel like the lurkers were robbed of seeing what insanity you would bring to a merge, and I really wish things had worked out differently so we could have played together for a little longer.

BURTON- We never even got a chance to play together this game, but I don't think a full Somerled reunion was never in the cards. Burton & Flicka, Penny & Lill.... it just never seems to work out for us. I am pretty sure if we did meet up, we would have ended up on different sides, so it probably worked out in my favor that we never crossed paths.

MAXIMUS- Where to begin? I was always under the impression that you were the head of the Anti-Lill Movement (and I still believe that), and because of that you became my enemy and my goal was just to outlast you. You had a lot of incorrect assumptions about me and my game, and maybe if you had just talked to me about those and took my word, things would have been different. But you were very set in your ways and in your beliefs, and I don't think there was ever anything I could have done to change your thoughts. So I guess this was a case of I had to get you out before you got me out.

JOHN- I told you before that I think you are one of the best to ever play, and I mean it. No ass-kissing needed. I have always wanted to play the game with you, and I still hope we get the chance one of these days. We were just separated for too long this game, and it was too late to really change the paths we were on from early on.

KATHY- I did not want you to go here, but an unexpected big move really screwed up a lot of people's plans, I think. I don't think we ever talked a lot of strategy, but I know you were a loyal ally, and I definitely didn't expect yo have to vote you out when I did.

DARRAH- My ride or die! Many moons ago during Bangkok, someone told me Darrah and Flicka would have gotten along. That was good advice, because it was great working with you for this game. Honestly my biggest mistake with our relationship was letting people get to me and try to convince me your loyalties were elsewhere. I never expected to lose you in the game so early, and having to vote you out was one of the hardest parts of the game for me. But I am so glad we got to play together for as long as we did, and I know we will be friends when this is all over. Thank you for being around so I could bounce all my ideas off you, and strategizing with me pretty much 24/7. The game has not been the same without you.

WESTLEY- I never played with Westley the Weasel before, but he reminded me a lot of Paschal. You are a great friend IRL, but in this game I just can't bring myself to trust you. I think you had a lot of alliances with a lot of people, and I know for a fact I wasn't your closest ally. Add the fact that you had an idol to the mix, and you were a very dangerous player in the game that needed to go before you put the idol to good use and took control of the game.

DRAGO- I loved having a chance to play this game with you. I think you are incredibly smart and perceptive, and I always felt like we got along so well. For awhile I really thought we could go pretty far in this game together. I considered you a true ally, but at a certain point your conversations with me became a little less frequent (which we may have both been at fault for), and I think you replaced me in your long term game plans. Voting you out was another one of those situations where I felt like I had to get you before you got me. But it doesn't change the fact that I loved working with you, and I look forward to talking Game of Thrones when this is all over. :)

KIMMI- I came into this game wanting to work with you if the opportunity presented itself. And it did-- but then everything that could go wrong did. I would give you information which you would share with other people. I would ask your opinions on the game and you would dance around the questions. I wanted to believe you were trustworthy, but you weren't giving me anything, which made me worry that your loyalties were elsewhere. I just couldn't read you or figure out how you actually wanted to play the game. And because of this I couldn't trust you enough to make a move WITH you.

DANIEL- I thought I was backstabbing you before you could backstab me, but in hindsight now I wonder if I was wrong about that. And if I was, I am really sorry. You were one of my closest allies this entire game. We were together since Day 1. And I don't think a lot of people ever realized how close we were, or how much I trusted you. I came into this thinking that you were going to be someone who was against me, that I would want to take out early. But that changed once I got to know you. You are a smart game player, and I really consider you a friend. I thought voting you out would be easy because I expected you were voting me out at the same time. But seeing you keep your word and realizing I had read the situation wrong turned this into one of the hardest votes of the entire game. I know you probably hate my guts (rightfully so!), but you were one of my favorite people to play this game with. And I look forward to being friends when this is all over.

Eh, screw it. I'll just got with my original gut on these.

FINAL version, I guess.
