Everyone sees me as the liar because I'm the one person that actually acted out against others that positioned themselves better than me. Max... Final three deal with me, final four deal with Apollo/Daniel Apollo/Daniel... final three deal with me, final four deal with Max/Laurie Lucy... Final three/two deals with me, Romeo, Atreyu, Rose, Buttercup, Apollo, Wes... ??? Rose/Atreyu/Buttercup... working together, stringing Apollo along... even using his name to get others on their side... positioning against each other the whole time with Lucy etc. Romeo... Conflicting deals of some nature with Wes, Juliet, me, and Lucy at various times on Jedi, part of the Undesirables with Rose, Max, and Laurie Laurie... final four deal with Apollo/Daniel while also part of the undesirables. It's just ridiculous. I was being played by all of these people... and yet they think I'm a liar because I played them back and actually got results. It's just ridiculous. How did I "betray" Lucy or Buttercup or Romeo or Max or Apollo or Dan??? They had other deals besides the ones they had with me. These people are all hypocrites. LOL. :lol: |

Another reason it's time for me to retire. Your player base has changed. Whatever happened to the good old days where Daina could win after being genuinely disliked all game and screwing over her entire alliance... just because she made a good move? What happened to the days where Melissa could win after blowing up her entire tribe and lying to everyone and everyone loved her afterward for her brilliant tactical moves? Now it's all about trust and friendship and loyalty and honor and emotional bonds and blah blah blah. I want to play a strategy game. |

The difference really is that back then, there were several sharks swimming with a lot of dolphins. Now, it's almost all sharks and a few dolphins in the mix. ![]() |

But why would sharks bitch and complain about lack of loyalty? They, themselves, prey on others, but when you do it better than them they get their panties in a twist. I swear part of it is their egos take a hit and they have to make themselves feel better. With me, that's not an issue. If you outplay me, you have my fullest respect and my vote. That's why I can't wait to see who Atreyu is. I love what he pulled off. Laurie, to me, is a dolphin. And all the sharks in the jury house are all gah gah over her game... ??? |

Bigger players, bigger sharks = BIGGER EGOS. This cast truly is unreal. I was just thinking today that it might possibly be the strongest, most hardcore cast I've ever assembled. I would say that the best way I would describe the difference between the games I host and some other games out there...........in a lot of other forum-based games, you just play with robots. There's barely even an ounce of "human-ness" to it. Here, with what I do..........it's playing with REAL PEOPLE, not just cyborgs. Which is why I find this stuff a thousand times more compelling than any game I've ever been in. Most of the games I've played in have bored me to tears. But there's something psychological about the "recipes" I usually end up with. This one has turned out particularly spicy and compelling. ![]() |

I've loved every second of this game except for the jury. LOL. I'm curious now about what Ponderosa is like. I'm loving Wes now though. :lol: I'm just tired of getting lectured about how I wasn't loyal to people that showed no indication that they were going to truly take me to the end. They have to realize something... what they intend to do isn't enough. If they show me evidence that they aren't going to do what they intend to do, why would I stay with them????????? It's like if you were in a relationship. Would you be ok with your spouse sleeping in a bed with another guy... as long as they didn't physically cheat? Would you be ok with them going on dates, as long as they didn't touch? NOOOOO. You wouldn't. Maybe they intended never to actually cheat on you, but they are setting up situations where they have that option. Just because Apollo never voted me out or Max never voted me out... it didn't mean I wasn't justified to make moves against them because they positioned themselves to vote me out later IF THEY WANTED TO. WHY WOULD I TOLERATE THAT??? I don't know what's in their head. I just know what they are capable of doing. |

Oh trust me............you entertained a lot of people! Even if people don't always sound like it...............I think there's gonna be more appreciation for your game after the fact. ![]() |

I'm mostly butting heads with Max. The thing is I always respected his game. I feel like he wants to respect mine, but he doesn't understand it. And when I voice my opinions, he seems to think I'm saying all other opinions are wrong. It's not so much about my game. It's more about my take on Laurie. My take on Laurie is my take on Laurie. I'm not sure why it offends Max so much. I'm very dry and analytical when I talk about things sometimes. I think it's coming off as a lecture. It's not. I'm just giving my take on things... and I think Max is misinterpreting it as me thinking I'm right about everything and he's wrong about everything. They also have to understand I'm a bit defensive right now. I expected a bitter jury, but they are a bit more anti-Trip than I thought. So my opinions are coming off very defensive because of that. This is not like my other jury experiences, where I get voted out and everyone is just trying to figure out what happened. This time, everyone is actually JUDGING what happened... even though they don't know everything yet and even though I don't know everything yet and even though we all had different experiences. That is why there is some butting of heads. |

Romeo wasn't around a whole lot tonight. He's been rather pro-Trip for the most part in the Jury House. |

LOL... I think the butting of heads is over. They got their trip hate out of their systems. I got my defensiveness out of my system. I think we can start to have some fun now. |

You know how it goes, everyone in every game has that player that got the best of them that they thought was with them all the time. They gotta do a little "Jury initiation"..........cause they've been wanting to see you there for a few rounds.

HA!!!! Suckas!!!! I'm vindicated. None of those bitches were taking me to the end, including the "loyal" and "honest" Laurie, who clearly should have forced a tie with me at F4. That is all. |

My good buddy Trip. I know you think I was just bitter in my thinking (and there is some truth to that) but that was not all I was basing that on. Did I have a F2 with Dan...YUP I sure did. I had it before you and I ever really started talking. That being said you quickly became a trusted ally and friend to me in this game. I know how stupid is that..."trusted"..."friend"...not words you typically hear in Survivor. Believe me I know this. This is one of my greatest weaknesses in these game...at some point despite my desire not to I always eventually "loyal up" and it ALWAYS bites me in the ass. You were my "ass bite" this season. I did trust you and I was loyal to you. You can believe that or not but it is a fact. You were always in my F3. I know, I know...F3...but you have to consider I never felt I had a shot at winning F3 immunity. I always knew I would need to be selected for F2 in that scenario. I played my game trying to set myself up with the best opportunity FOR ME to be surrounded at F3 with two players that would want to take me to F2. I know that sounds like a cop out...but I am well aware of my shortcomings and challenges are one of them. So with that in mind...and our F5 agreement the way it was...who do you think I want in that F3. Dan? OF COURSE...he and I never waivered on one another he was my best shot at getting to F2. Max? No way he picks me. Laurie? Hell no she takes Dan every time. Trip? Yup my other best shot at getting into F2 (although not as sure as Dan). You keep bringing up my F4 alliance with Max and Laurie...but DUDE you drove me to that. It became and option for me because I felt you had chosen other options. I was always loyal to you and never turned on you until it was obvious that you had turned on me (and believe me I had opportunities to turn on you before). So knowing that I do value loyalty that was going to be a factor in my jury vote as it would be others (something you must not have calculated in your master plan). Was I bitter...you bet. But that fades fast after you exit the game. It became obvious you were playing a very anti-loyalty game...splitting up anyone who might have had some loyalty. That was what I was basing my opinion on. You played one of the best games I have ever seen...no doubt...but not one I could reward with my vote. ...and as for being bitter...why the Rose vote and not Atreyu? Could it be that maybe you were feeling a bit...ummm I dunno...BITTER towards Atreyu for his turning on you? Hmmmmm no I'm sure that's not right...couldn't be. Much love my brutha. Was a pleasure.

Apollo swinging I just dont know why a vote for Rose, was due to bitterness lol. I thought I did a good job, at least as good, or pretty damn close to Atreyu, we worked together. Atreyu just had better personal connections with the jury members, IMO. Im not saying Atreyu didnt deserve to win, he did. But I dont think voting for me is so outlandish, thats all. I constantly brought up your F4 to Trip, I believed it was fact, we will never know for sure. |
