#10200 I just feel like it's better to have this in one place if possible??? That way I'm not inclined to bump old threads.

#10201 good call.

mostly just re-iterating things i've already said, but consolidated: i think they're all doing very well. so far i would say yul's doing the best job answering questions, and I really liked his answer to me about how his personality made us include him in everything, even when we didn't have to (and that that continued after i was gone). i thought that was so true and such an underrated point. i like that he called back something i said in my question to cass in my answer to him, which proves he's taking this really seriously and listening very carefully.

i've been impressed with sarah too. i think her arc's really interesting, i just...kind of wish i had more of a clue if it were real? i feel like when i was there, i only saw the sarah who wasn't self-assured and was really uhappy, and now she's telling me this rose from the ashes story and i don't know if that actually happened or if that's kind of like...a conclusion that she's tacked on now. i'm not sure if she ever really found her footing, and i'm not saying necessarily that she was in a position where it was even POSSIBLE for her to...but i'm just not how true what she's selling us is. and saying stuff like that she spearheaded by vote, or calling me not working with her a "flip" when i was NEVER with her, is still showing to me some misunderstanding of the game.that being said, i'm absolutely touched by how much she wants this and how much it clearly means to her. which brings me to...

i don't like cass's jokey opening statement, but that's just personal preference, i guess. i think her answers to be were solid. i didn't like her number-answers to vytas that seemed like she was taking sole credit for stuff that was not just hers, but in her explanations i think she came back from that somewhat, in vytas's thread and in mine, AND she even gave me credit for bringing up katie's name without me saying anything about it. and i think the main flaw in her strategic game is covered a lot more now that i find out she wanted ozzy gone the night i went and wanted to cut me at 5 or 4 instead, which i think makes a lot more sense for her and is pretty strategically flawless. don't like her saying she didn't need immunity at f4. yeah you did, girl.

I'll read through each of yours, but my mind is pretty set with this three. I don't think anything any of them can say would change it? So might as well give em something light and breezy and get em thinking of the lols from before.


This may have been premature. I could potentially vote Yul too maybe. "In control from the background while avoiding the stigma of pushing the big moves that killed everyone else" is a decent pitch.

I can't stoop to Sarah though, "I fought hard to make myself look like a wet fish" is just not doing it for me.

I'm still 80% a lock for Cass though. I can't knock her booting Ozzy at five like some of you seem to be. He wanted to cut her at four so she pre-empted that, and he would be much tougher to face off against in a challenge. Like she had to win at four with or without him there, and she was better off without.

#10206 And even thinking about it now, Ozzy staying at five would have been great for Sarah or Yul. They'd have avoided the rocks and the rest of it at four. But Cass controlled that very important one against their wills. The power of twists and idols I suppose, but still, she did enough in game to have me want to gift it to her over anyone else, even the three Tianguan. Sarah sure as hell didn't and she knew the twist was in play. And for all our history, Yul and I only really began to gel on that very last day.

#10212 I won't knock Cass for booting me at 5 anymore. She knew I was gunning for her at 4 so it makes sense to take me out at 5. But my challenge abilities aren't something that I think are threatening. I did like one maze quickly, that's it. Sarah was always in the running of those challenges throughout the merge. If she claimed it was the challenge ability, I'd fault her more. But what I'm seeing is her claiming it's because I was coming for her at 4. So that's fine.

#10215 Oz, did you believe that she voted for me at 6, and Rory was the other vote against you? 'cause that's absolutely what I thought.

I will clarify this.

Ozzy, Yul and me voted for you at F6 (sorry!). All of us would've gone for a tie, if that happened (at least I would).
Cass voted for Ozzy with you.
Sarah really did switch her vote for you during FTC (who does that, really? it was a little scary), but that doesn't mean she spearheaded it.

I knew she was the wonky vote for sure. She told me it was happenstance that her and Rory wrote the same thing. Super bullshit lol. But it didn't matter at that point to me because sarah was next in my eyes, and I thought everyone would see that.

Lol don't apologize!

As soon as I said that thing about her having votes if she made it to the end I was like uggggh I shouldn't have said that. But honestly I had no idea it was gonna be a tie, I thought everyone was against me already and I wanted y'all to take her out next so I was trying to tell you that on the way out lol. AH WELL. I'm hardly the first person to screw herself in stranded and I won't be the last icon_lol

#10239 Loving their responses in my thread. I think if you read Cass' answer to my first question she makes a compelling case why she DIDNT need to win most of the immunities she did to survive. I happen to maybe partially disagree but I think she makes a convincing case!!

Yul's answer to Liliana is also super legit. People really should realize that he was not a follower of mine. Now I know he doesn't like me calling him my knight but it's cute. He's his own player and darn it his jury performance is OFF THE CHAIN so far.

Before I thought he had a awful social game, but does he really? Let's discuss.

#10240 I don't think he had an awful social game at all. It's kind of heartbreaking that he didn't know if I was being real with him or just talking to him because I had to, though! That's kinda sad.

BUT. I think Yul played a great game and his FTC performance is fantastic. But...I think Cass just had the strongest game of anyone this season, and I don't think I can let these answers sway me on that.
