[align=center]Hey there party people I know that you've missed this bright shiny face:![]() So I am going to need some more time to read through your opening statements. You ladies will have a shit ton of juror questions to plow through, and I really don't want to have you retell us all your strategy and everything you said in your opening statements again. So I'm going to do something a little bit different. A mini-challenge for my vote ![]() I'm sure you all know that I'm all about that social game. To win my vote, you'll have to show me how well you connected with me, and just how aware you are of the jury's opinion of you. It's going to be three parts and 30 points will be up for grabs, based on creativity, honesty, and humor. FIRST PART I will need you to post a gif of a sitcom relationship that you feel best describes our relationship in the game. Add as little or as much justification as you want to help explain your pick. 15 points are available here. SECOND PART I need you to make me a drink to get through the rest of this FTC. You should know I'm an alcoholic by now. Make me whatever you think best fits my personality. And again, add as little or as much justification as you want to explain. 15 points are available here. LAST PART Final thing, and this is not related to my mini-game, but I need you to list the jurors and assign how likely you think you are to get each juror's vote. 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest. No explanations, please. Just numbers. Should be short and sweet, and if you want my vote (which is 100% Up In The Air) then you should do a good job with this. Congratulations on getting to the end, ladies! I'll be thrilled with whomever takes this title home. [/align]

Part 1: I'm not a big sitcom watcher but I'm going to go with Parks and Rec which I am recently on a swing of watching. ![]() I'm going with Ron and Ann. I don't think we had a relationship that could be described by a sitcom because we only knew each other for 2 or 3 days before you were robbed. But I just went with this because I was more serious like Ron and you were more outgoing and nice like Ann. Part 2: You told me you like Jack and Coke for the taste and how strong it is, so I'd make you a Jack and Coke. Or like 4 because I think we're going to be here a while lol. Jack and Coke is strong but still tastes good, and you're very strong socially but still get the job done game-wise too. Part 3: Carlisle- 3 Jessica- 3 Alec- 5 Riley- 5 Leah- 3 Victoria- 4 Esme- 2 James- 1 Seth- 3 Charlie- 3 Emmett- 1 Jasper- 3 Rosalie- 1 Thanks Jess!

What sitcom pair are we? Monica and Rachel ![]() Justification? Monica is very neat and neurotic, and Rachel was always the more loose fun one. I go back to our conversations where I told you about my struggles with OCD and some other things, and I am definitely a lot like Monica, where you're definitely Rachel in our friendship! I would mix you a drink that had a very fruity taste to it. It would have Vodka for sure, because let's face it, vodka goes great with everything. A little peach juice. Some kind of orange or tangerine. A nice cherry on top for my girl Jess! Part 3: Carlisle: 3 Jessica: 5 Alec: 2 Leah: 4 Riley: 2 Victoria: 3 Esme: 2 James: 1 Seth: 2 Charlie: 3 Emmet: 2 Jasper: 4 Rosalie: 1 |

Oh hi Jess. Okay. Well.. Firstly I don't really watch sitcoms like at all. So I.. I don't know if you consider Girls a sitcom or not but I don't know. It was the first thing that really came to my mind. ![]() I think.. I think Marnie and Hannah from Girls is a good comparison. Because like... we were really good friends here I think, and when we merged you sent me that PM with the title that was like hey it's your best friend Jess! And it was just like.. like we had been good girlfriends for a while. Obviously you're Marnie because you're like really pretty and have a good singing voice, and I'm Hannah because I'm ugly, repulsive, and annoying. And.. and Marnie/Hannah lived together, but Marnie moved out which put an abrupt end to their friendship. Just like.. like the List moved you out so suddenly. The drink I'll make for you.. it's called a Cranberry Bubbles Cosmo. ![]() Basically I just wanted something that was girly, but also bubbly and fun. Because I feel like that's like.. that's pretty much what you are in a nutshell. That's why I think like, why so many were shocked and sad when you left because you were just.. I don't know, easygoing and fun to talk to and stuff. So this cocktail is bubbly like you. For part 3... alright let's see. Alec - 1 Carlisle - 4 Charlie - 2 Emmett - 5 Esme - 5 James - 3 Jasper - 2 Jessica - 3 Leah - 2 Riley - 2 Rosalie - 5 Seth - 2 Victoria - 3 |

Congrats Ladies. I love seeing one Cullen, one Fork and one Coven sitting in the finals. How fitting. I will say with a sincere heart that I believe any of you three would make a great winner. There has been strong debate on all 3 of your good qualities and all 3 of your game errors. For me personally, the pros for all of you way outweigh the cons. So nicely done and good luck to all 3 of you. You've all touched on these topics but I was determined to make my questions fit the theme, so just quickly go back over stuff if need be. ANGELA In the Twilight series, Angela is best described as kind, shy, and somewhat insightful. She knows when to give a friend her space and when to offer sagely advice. In general, she is seen as one of the best humans … in a book that doesn’t really focus on humans. I think the same can be said of you within this game! What I’d like tonight is for you to give us a strong example of when you were insightful and gave sage advice to an ally or enemy that made a difference in the way a specific round played out. Then, give us an example of when you backed off and let someone make their own decisions, even if they were not what you wanted to see happen. IRINA In the Twilight saga, Irina is one of those characters that comes full circle. She is a vital part of a human legend called The Succubus. The Succubus are female demons who seduce their prey before draining them of life. At times, the pain and guilt of those choices were unbearable but it was the life they chose to lead. I, better than anyone, realize just what a Succubus you were. But within the Twilight sage, Irina changed. She realized that route left her alone. And she did not like that feeling. So she branched out, made new commitments and friends. She made some mistakes. She told people inaccurate information at times and that put them in jeopardy. But when confronted, she took complete responsibility for her actions and life. In the Twilight books, the fact that Irina took complete responsibility for her actions resulted in her death. In this game, however, I think it brought you new life and made you strong and totally reliant upon your inner strength. Tonight, give us 3 examples where you alone led the charge that shaped either a round or the game in general. BELLA In the Twilight saga, Bella is the protagonist. She loves strongly. She is focused and determined to make what she loves hers and hers alone. She is gifted with the power to shield her mind, to not get off track. And she could shield the mind’s of those whom she loves, as well. That is her greatest gift. Ironically, she is the ultimate protector, although we are lead to believe, in all the books leading up to the finale, that she is the one who actually needs protecting. There’s absolutely no doubt you played the same role within this game. And you played it very well. Tonight, tell us your opinion of your game during the first 4 or so rounds. Were you in danger or were you more in control than we were led to believe? Were you just being protected or were you vital to the early game dynamics? And then late game, how did you protect those that befriended you early on? |

Hi I'm so happy you don't hate me first of all, that was the thing I was worried about most coming into tonight. That's so weird how we were all similar to our characters, when I at least knew nothing about Irina. 1. I think the most obvious one, unfortunately, was saving Angela the round you left. It was something that I hated to do, but it was completely instrumental in shaping the end of this game, because it prevented Esme, Seth, and James from getting idols. Those 3 with idols most likely make up at least part if not all of the endgame, and the choice I made that night allowed me to overcome the target they had placed on me. No one else was going to pick Angela, I had to be the one to do it and prevent those idols from entering the game. 2. I'm going to say the day we booted James from the Coven. Obviously you contributed a lot to that and really gave me the drive and helped me make the decision to want him out, but I don't think on your own you would have taken the initiative to do it immediately. I recruited Mike, I fed Alec the lines to say to Riley to get them trusting each other again. I put a lot of legwork into lying to him to make sure he didn't catch wind of it and convince people not to do it. That shaped the course of the round and of the game as well. 3. The final 6 HOH that I won was pivotal, I would have been gone if I didn't win HOH or veto. But the decisions I made there shaped the game dramatically. Two of the main 3 Cullens in the alliance were on the block and 1 was guaranteed to leave. I could have sent both out, I held Rosalie and Jasper's fates in my hands, and I made the decision that kept the bigger jury threat in order to secure my place in the finals. I love you and I'm so sorry for what I did, but I don't think I would be here if I had not done it, we were just put in shitty circumstances. You were totally robbed, and I'll be the first one to admit it. |

The first four rounds.. I mean no, there's no misunderstanding there. Those rounds weren't good for me. I think the first round I just really.. really came on strong with the Bella schtick and was like constantly talking about Edward, asking people if they'd seen Edward, and like if they knew when Edward would be back and stuff? I'm sure that.. that didn't really do me any favors with making in-roads or whatever. When Edward left.. I just wasn't expecting that so early and kind of didn't really know what to do with the Bella character when that happened. Like you kind of know.. I didn't really post at all on the board or in that secret group, removed my avatar, and just kind of kept to myself. I had.. I had Esme, Emmett, Jasper, and Rosalie trying to comfort me and stuff.. saying I'd be okay. As much as I just wanted to be true to Bella and lock myself in my room for 4 months or whatever it was.. I eventually started talking to people again and trying to just make it work. I felt kind of like an outsider just because it was an 8-1 vote.. and I was the 1. But the next round we just.. we voted out Renesmee because she was the last easy option. After that though.. at the end of round 3 when Renesmee left I felt really vulnerable and scared. We had no easy boots left that I could see because like, Alice hadn't gone inactive yet. So I was scared. I was scared there was like this thing where people thought it'd be funny to vote off all the main characters first. So yeah, that's when I put schtick aside and laid everything out on the line for Rosalie, Emmett, and Esme. I felt like.. like I had the best connection with them and that if I promised them my loyalty going forward that.. that I'd be okay. I'm honestly not really sure like.. what my situation was before then. Rosalie swore up and down that I wasn't in danger anyway and that I was maybe like overreacting and being paranoid. So maybe I was fine, but just.. just felt really alone and scared. But going into round 4.. yeah. I felt secure, and I felt confident that I'd be okay on my tribe. Late in the game I mean... like I said in my opening I just could never turn on the Cullens unless I was forced to like with Emmett. When Esme left she.. she PMed all three of us (me, Rosalie, Emmett) and told us to make final 3 for her. And.. it was kind of funny because the three of us had been like talking about that earlier that day or whatever. So yeah.. that was my ideal final 3. They.. they picked me up when I was feeling at my most down. I could and would never vote for them to leave unless I was forced to by nominations or whatever. They were there for me, and I was there for them like as much as I could be while still keeping myself safe and in the best position. |

I think the person I gave pep talks to the most was Leah. Sometimes she would feel a little insecure about something, but I was always there to be positive and really tried to show her the bright side of things. I got the feeling that maybe she felt a little insecure about her position during list format, and even though she was eliminated then. I think for a few rounds she actually was feeling better about her position because technically, we were in an alliance with large numbers, it was just bad luck that she left. Leah was always the one I gave pep talks to. There were times on Forks where she almost got voted out, because people were getting a little worried about not hearing from her often, so I told her, girl, you gotta step up your social game, and once we hit that merge, based on what people told me about her, she absolutely did step it up. And a time when I just kinda backed off and gave someone space was when I wanted Mike to stay, but no one else really wanted to. I would have fought harder for that, but I felt like perhaps it was smarter just to let it happen and see where things fall after that. I think had I been a little more of a pain in the ass about it I could have maybe saved him, but ultimately it was actually the better decision for Forks since Seth was the one who won the next challenge for us and kept our tribe alive, so if I fight to boot Seth, Forks goes into the merge worse off than we were. |
