Kim Kills

[Kim Powers]

Congrats to you three. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little bitter/jealous about the F3 being former ropes member and DD and I not up there. You all did play games deserving of making the end, though and that's why you're up there and none of us are. Good luck!




Sydney, I'll start with you. You and I have such a weird history before this game, I don't even know what you'd call it. We've actually only ever played one game together before this I think, and I didn't really know you that well and vice versa. One of the things I am most proud of this game is finally getting a chance to actually know you instead of just knowing of you. You're a really cool person and our personalities just seem to click.

I think you played an amazing game. You did things I have never seen done before in an ORG and that's a testament to you. I would like to explain myself to you a little bit though. I never thought you actually would have wanted me in the end with you. I'm not sure why, but I always had a strong voice in my head saying "Don't trust Sydney...she will turn on you eventually" and maybe its my fault for thinking that.

I do have a few questions for you:

1. Why did you want to work with me in this game? Was it because we were both close to Danielle? Was it because we got along? I'm asking this because I know we had our differences before this game so I wanted to find out why you decided to want to work with me.

2. Can you name all of the votes in the entire game that didn't go the way you wanted them? Why?

3. Did our talk a few days before the start of the game have an effect on you playing?

4. If we had just voted Chase and Colby and the double TC, who would your ideal F3 have been?




Well, I don't really know where to begin. I guess I'll just start from the beginning with you. When I first saw you as a replacement, I'm not sure if you remember how excited I was. I was so happy that the coven 2.0 could live on. Than fast forward to the swap and ropes was formed. I'll admit, this was so ideal for me and I loved every single member of that group. It really was so badass.

You and I got REALLY close during this game. I'm starting to believe that is just part of your gameplay, which really hurts a lot. I put a lot of my game into you and I got to know you on a level that I don't usually do in ORGs. I remember sitting in class and we were snap chatting and I gave you my number to just text me cause I couldn't be on the computer in class. I wouldn't do that if I didn't actually feel extremely close to you.

And then, you blindside me the first time. I was devastated. I didn't really even care about the game at that point, I was more upset because I felt used. Apparently you didn't see the friendship the way I did at the time and the fact that I still don't think I did anything to YOU personally to deserve that makes it even worse. You were, at one point, right behind DD/Miki on my list of allies in this game.

Main Allies

4. Sydney
5. Judd

^I won't show the rest of that list, but that was put in my confessional the round that we voted out Ibrehem. You were right there, it just didn't make sense to me and I still don't really understand it.

But then I came back into the game and you told me that you wouldn't vote for me again because you knew how much I was hurt. I knew that didn't mean for the remainder of the game and I got that totally, but I think you need to be cleared up with some things. I was with you totally...you can ask anyone that I was close to. I was 100% with you when I came back into the game. DD got frustrated with me because I trusted you so easily again, but I saw you as a genuine person. WHOOPS KIM IS A MORON I GUESS.

Your reasoning for voting me off the second time was because I was against you, so you said. But to be fair, I didn't come after you until you made it very clear to me where your loyalties stood. Come on, I'm not an idiot. I knew once Colby left that you were not working with me and I STILL tried getting Chase and Shawna to vote Sean the next round KNOWING that you weren't with me. Yet, you voted me out because I was coming after you lol you make it sound like if I wasn't coming after you then you wouldn't have voted me. Bullshit Vecepia. You bullshitted me all game and made me look like a fool almost as much as Miki did.

Questions for you:

1. What did I do to you? Why was I always a target of your's through the game? Why couldn't we just work together? Why couldn't I be included in the Miki/Vee group once Danielle left? It's what I wanted, why didn't you?

2. Were you happy with ropes? Did you just join it because you didn't want to say no? Was it your ideal group at the time?

3. Why was it okay to turn on me twice but it wasn't ever okay to turn on Sydney or Miki? You said you voted me out the first time to help your game, so why didn't you vote out Sydney at F5? There's gotta be something I'm not seeing. Did you value your friendship with Sydney over my friendship? I thought our's was genuine, did you?

4. Why didn't you tell me I was going the 2nd time? You knew there was nothing I could do to save myself. Even if you didn't tell me before the deadline, why couldn't you tell me before results?

5. What is your biggest regret throughout the course of this entire game? Why?




Ya know, I've been debating if I even wanted to say anything to you at all. I'm still so hurt by you and I've kind of just been putting off everything of how I really felt until now, because honestly, I want you to see how upset I really am and I felt this was the most appropriate time to do so.

I just kind of want to start off by giving everyone here a little history lesson. It was almost 6 years ago that I joined a Survivor game on MySpace (yes, that's how long ago this was) and Miki was also in that game. I was scared to death to play because I didn't want my parents finding out about it or anything like that. The game ended and then Miki asked me if I wanted to play an ORG. I almost said no, but I decided I would and I loved it right away. So, Miki introduced me to ORGs.

Throughout the time that we've known each other, Miki and I have played in games together a good amount I'd say. In every single game, Miki and I had each other's backs completely. We never voted each other and we always went down together in games if that happened. There were plenty of times where I fucked up my game entirely to help out Miki (see: Gsurvivor2....Ted will vouch for me on that)

I don't think there is any relationship in this game between two people that is a closer relationship than Miki and I. So to the people who think I'm overreacting about this, you're wrong and it still hurts. I've never thought of Miki as an online friend and she is the only person that people I know in real life know about because I have mentioned her to my parents before. Which, if you know me at all, is a huge deal.

So, fast forward to this game. Miki and I obviously plan on working together. My ideal F3 all game was myself, Miki and Danielle, which could have easily happened I felt. Miki is playing it off that she never wanted to go to the end with me, well I'm calling BS on that. Miki and I have talked about this game since her season ended and how we were gonna run shit together. I wanted to and I know she did too.

Now, I know I may have done the same thing to Judd. However, Judd did things that made me distrust him a lot. I NEVER gave Miki any reason to turn on me, ever. If she didn't turn on Danielle or I, I think she still could have made the end, I know she thinks that as well.


So, Miki, I hope the game was that important to you. I hope you "playing to win" by taking me out really was worth it. Because you won't win, you might get one vote. You wanted to take out a power played in Danielle.....to go to the end with two power players? Makes sense! You singlehandedly fucked my game over and I'm sticking by that. You don't vote out Danielle and Candice goes instead, its a whole new game.

And even if you did actually want to play with different people this time, I know that's not the case. Let's see some of the people you were aligned with:

Alexis - you knew her from the Vietnam game we played and when I told you it was her you were extremely excited. You continued to play this game closely with her.

Candice - you played all game with her, maybe not that close, but towards the end it got close. You knew her from season 2 when you worked together and you worked with her here, too.

Sydney - you just said in Ted's questioning that you've known Sydney for 4 years now. And you've told me time and time again that you and Sydney work well together. You knew who she was and aligned with her.

So, don't go telling me that it was because you wanted to work with new people this time around. You decided to stay loyal to those people (yes you voted Alexis but you also said you thought it would tie and would vote Wanda in a revote) and not to me. What does that tell me? I'm not sure. Voting me and my allies out didn't help your game tremendously because you still could have made the end with that group. You chose to go against me, lie to me about it and worst of all, ruin the bond that we had. Ruin the strongest bond I ever did and ever will have with anyone I meet in these games. Thanks to you, I look at these games differently. I don't know if I can ever trust you again and I don't know how long it will take for me to get over it. Your friendship was more than an online thing, it meant the world to me. I felt like you threw that all out the window.

Questions for you:

1. Was it all worth it? Was taking me out worth making the end?

2. Fess up. I know you're lying about some stuff in regards to not wanting to work with me. If you are telling the truth, then fess up to me. What am I wrong about with you and what have I been believing this whole time about your game that isn't true?

3. Where do you and I go from here? Because I still really don't know.

4. Same thing I asked Vecepia: it's one thing to vote me, its another to lie, but then lead me on to believe I will be safe? Why? How in the world did that help your game? You and Vee were the two votes I needed and you knew that. That hurt.

5. Would you redo anything in this game? Why?

6. Who was your ideal F3 at the start of the merge?

Questions for all:

1. If you had to rank the members of ropes, who were you closest to when ropes was FIRST formed? And then, who were you closest to when we MERGED? And, if the list changed between those time frames, why is that? So basically, just a 1-4 list with 1 being who you were closest to and 4 being who you felt least close to.

2. Name 5 things you learned on a personal level about each juror that you didn't know before this game. If you can't name 5, then name however many you can. If you can name 5, then please do.

Thanks and good luck!

[Saint Miki Wingle]

1. Was it all worth it? Was taking me out worth making the end? I think it was in a way and in a way it wasn't. If I could do it again I'd of done it more gently and told you that you were going rather then strong you along like I did and I'm sorry for that Kim I really am

2. Fess up. I know you're lying about some stuff in regards to not wanting to work with me. If you are telling the truth, then fess up to me. What am I wrong about with you and what have I been believing this whole time about your game that isn't true?

Your perception of me being Kim's lap dog is very wrong you should know I am nobodies lap dog never have been never will be. And ok yes I wanted to work with different people but ill admit I'm a familiar creature I work with those that are familiar to me like Sydney, Candice and Alexis. But had I done what was expected of me I'd of screwed all of them and stuck with you. One of the big reasons I switched sides is the way you approached the game. I felt like you felt that I couldn't make it to finals without you. So I chose to prove you wrong.

3. Where do you and I go from here? Because I still really don't know.

I don't expect things to go back to how they were. If you want to be friends I'd love that. I've always viewed you as a very close friend. And all friends have rough patches. We had ours in this game. I'm leaving the ball in your court take all time you need. If you choose to be friends with me that is awesome. If you choose to never talk to me ill be sad and upset but I've come to terms with the fact that may happen.

4. Same thing I asked Vecepia: it's one thing to vote me, its another to lie, but then lead me on to believe I will be safe? Why? How in the world did that help your game? You and Vee were the two votes I needed and you knew that. That hurt.

Lying to you that round was a very low point in the game for me. But I did it because you are a very good player when you are pushed into a corner. Lord know what kind of scrambling you'd of done if I had actually told you that you were going home. I knew the numbers weren't there to even tie it so rather then deal with a long winded rant from you I chose not to tell you and I'm sorry. That was a low blow on my part and I regret it everyday

5. Would you redo anything in this game? Why?

I would redo the round you left tbh. I would just vote with you regardless the outcome because to me our friendship is more important then a game. And I so carelessly sacrificed it to prove that I could do this by myself.

6. Who was your ideal F3 at the start of the merge?

My ideal f3 was Vee always from pre merge to now. I hadn't decided who else I was taking till later in the merge. Going into it I had planned on taking Candice to the f3 but later she sealed her own fate. And I had grown overwhelmingly close to Sydney by that time as well.

If you had to rank the members of ropes, who were you closest to when ropes was FIRST formed? And then, who were you closest to when we MERGED? And, if the list changed between those time frames, why is that? So basically, just a 1-4 list with 1 being who you were closest to and 4 being who you felt least close to.
Pre Merge

Vee
Kim
Sydney
DD

Merge

Vee
Sydney
Kim
DD

At merge my loyalties changed a bit mainly because Kim you were out of the game. And then when you came back everyone went right back to you. It made me very wary of my safety working with you long term during the merge.

2. Name 5 things you learned on a personal level about each juror that you didn't know before this game.

Ted: He's Jewish, He apparently doesn't like hooker or whore, He isn't black (I thought he was for the longest time), He managed to over come differences with Andyman and they became friends,

Alexis: Lives in Canada, She had a very complicated relationship (not sure if they are still together) is going to college this year. And I have more but ill not share them they are personal

Wanda: is played by a boy, his name is Cam. Unfortunately I didn't get to know him much. I mostly knew the character he played

Judd: names Bryce, lives in the Midwest, works in retail, been playing orgs for at least 3 years,

Kourtney: is 15. Her name is skylar, relatively new to orgs, tends to be a bit dramatic,

DD: bf plays orgs, is a virgin, names jake, lives in Ohio, visited his bf this summer,

Colby: names Jeff, we share a mutual love for game of throwns, likes baseball or whatever sport was on this summer , we have a mutual friend in Skupin

Shawna: has red hair, is part French and Irish along with a few others, has a daughter, witnessed a jumper at her job, lives on the west coast, has been playing orgs for years

Kim: applied for survivor last month, has an interesting fact about him that he tried to use to get on survivor, has never won an org, favorite survivor is Kim Powers, apparently has hooked up more then I had imagined, spent most of the summer at the shore

Candice: an angel addict, also Buffy fanatic, has a lot of sisters, loves her job, dyed her hair light but is naturally a brunette, is 28, name is Monica, lives in New York

Alex: never won an org, has played for ten years, real name is Alex, he is actually black, his sexual preference is a bottom, drinks a lot, he is openly gay

Chase: real name is chase, smokes weed, drinks a lot, works odd hours, close friends with Shawna, Instagram name references balls, rumored to be bisexual, chose to have sex rather then do the challenge in sausage 3 which got him voted out

Sean: manager in food industry, lives on his own, spends a lot of time with his mom, has played orgs longer then me, was working in a different store for a while, is currently single


It isn't 5 facts for everyone cause I didn't spend a lot of time chit chatting with everyone. I spent more time talking about random stuff and game stuff to most people. Also most of these people I knew coming in and there wasn't much to learn about them.

[Sydney Wheeler]

Congrats to you three. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little bitter/jealous about the F3 being former ropes member and DD and I not up there. You all did play games deserving of making the end, though and that's why you're up there and none of us are. Good luck!



Sydney, I'll start with you. You and I have such a weird history before this game, I don't even know what you'd call it. We've actually only ever played one game together before this I think, and I didn't really know you that well and vice versa. One of the things I am most proud of this game is finally getting a chance to actually know you instead of just knowing of you. You're a really cool person and our personalities just seem to click.

I think you played an amazing game. You did things I have never seen done before in an ORG and that's a testament to you. I would like to explain myself to you a little bit though. I never thought you actually would have wanted me in the end with you. I'm not sure why, but I always had a strong voice in my head saying "Don't trust Sydney...she will turn on you eventually" and maybe its my fault for thinking that.

Thanks Kim! I think it's actually just weird circumstances to how the final 3 ended up being 3/5 Ropes members. I never ever expected that and I don't think many of us really did. Because if I ever envisioned myself at the end with people from Ropes it certainly wouldn't be BOTH of Miki & Vee over yourself and Danielle earlier on. Anyways to your questions~~~

1. Why did you want to work with me in this game? Was it because we were both close to Danielle? Was it because we got along? I'm asking this because I know we had our differences before this game so I wanted to find out why you decided to want to work with me.

When I decided to play this game, and knowing the cast, I seriously was open to working with legitimately anyone whose showed interest in playing with me. I knew that I was coming in rather alone compared to most people so I looked at myself as a flexible person. I really wanted to convey to people that they should trust me. I wanted to go far and I wanted to go far with people who wished to align with me. Basically, I saw myself willing to work with 33 of the other 34 players coming into the game. The only person I did not see myself co-existing with was Ted. Yourself, Miki, and Vee were three people I was very very afraid of coming in. However, unlike Ted, I felt I would be able to work on a relationship with you all for the fact we really didn't know eachother. I didn't get along with you and Vee but it's not like we ever took the chance to know eachother so I figured anything was possible. I was pretty optimistic for how pessimistic I thought I'd place lol

Also, I knew that Danielle could probably convince you that she could keep me from targeting you. It wasn't really about you being close to Danielle though. So long as you showed interest in working with me, I'd show it back.

2. Can you name all of the votes in the entire game that didn't go the way you wanted them? Why?

Do you mean all the votes I was apart of? For votes I wasn't apart of: I was unhappy Sandra left when she did. I was really hoping it would be Coach that round. I was also unhappy Elyse didn't leave when Brandon did. (Though I thought that was a big thing and I was okay with it because I felt Brandon was merge bound) I wasn't involved in the politics of those Tribal Councils anyway. Please let me know if you want me to go into more detail regarding Tribal Councils I wasn't involved in. As for votes I was apart of that didn't go my way:

Final 12/13 when Judd & Kourtney left
Final 6 when Alex left

Those were the only two rounds I voted in the minority. Obviously Judd and Kourtney were two of my closest allies in the game, as they were literally the only two hammering in they would go to the end with me. It was clear I had ties to them so I was not privy to that blindside. I really wanted Chase and Colby to out of the game at that time. From what I knew Chase was against me and I felt Colby was a snake in the grass, who could vote out anyone at any moment's notice. As to why it didn't go my way - I couldn't control Judd's emotional outbursts. It really made you guys want him gone and you knew I'd be against it.

At final 6, I wasn't SUPER picky. It was really hard deciding who should go home. Ultimately I decided on wanting Sean because he was the least likely to want to sit next to me at the end. The reason this vote didn't go my way is because I was too honest with everyone about what I wanted to happen. I feel like I had the power to eliminate anyone of my choosing that round if I lied to people. At that point of the game though I cared more about showing I was true to my word than to get a specific someone out. Because to me they all weren't super different in terms of my relationships with them.

3. Did our talk a few days before the start of the game have an effect on you playing?

It helped a lot, especially with my peace of mind, but I'm pretty sure I would have played anyways. You messaging me gave me the sense that maybe all was not lost for me. I think this game was a game I was more terrified to play than any other ORG ever. Season 3 had a really bad reputation and people thought so much negative stuff about me and I really didn't think I was going to enjoy it. I felt like I would be such a target coming in and people wouldn't give me the benefit of the doubt. (Which obviously was happening as Ted shared about the pre-game alliances to eliminate me) You approaching me did ease the idea I could convince people I am good to keep around. I really had this urge to play though, something was telling me to just go for it and have fun. To see where it took me. I am so glad I did because I had a lot of fun and made it to this point with a game I really am proud of win or lose.

4. If we had just voted Chase and Colby and the double TC, who would your ideal F3 have been?

This is honestly the hardest question I'll have to answer because as I stated in my opening, my loyalties shifted so many times based on information and game dynamics at different points of time. Based on the information I was privy to around the Double Tribal Council, I would have probably went to the final 3 with Judd and Kourtney. They were literally, as stated, the only two people TELLING me they would go to the end with me. The reason I do not say Danielle around this time is because I had heard murmurs of her wanting to blindside me. (Along with you) But I still refused to EVER vote her out of the game. I was in some denial at first upon hearing it. But also to add at this time, before the vote happened, I had no reason not to trust Shawna so in my eyes I would have been willing to go with her as well. I was just not getting the same feedback from her as I did Judd and Kourtney.

As for you, I once had a conversation with you about how I wouldn't have minded sitting next to you at the end or seeing you win. That was genuine and the only reason it was never logical to me was the fact your ideal final 3 with Danielle and Miki was so obvious to me. But I meant in the sense that if someone really conveyed they wanted to go with me to the end of the game, I was on board. I think it's super obvious when someone doesn't want to go to the end with you, as I came to find about allies like Sean, Candice, and Shawna. When you are having a conversation and the end game isn't brought up, it's probably not good. If you are having a conversation about the end game and the other person is not as enthusiastic about it as you are, it's not a good sign. I saw the ladder in conversations with you and Shawna each.

Questions for all:

1. If you had to rank the members of ropes, who were you closest to when ropes was FIRST formed? And then, who were you closest to when we MERGED? And, if the list changed between those time frames, why is that? So basically, just a 1-4 list with 1 being who you were closest to and 4 being who you felt least close to.

When Ropes Formed at the Puppet Challenge:
1 Danielle
2 Kim
3 Miki
4 Vee

Merge
1 Danielle
2 Miki
3 Vee
4 Kim

When Ropes first formed I totally felt at the bottom of this alliance. As evident by your own ranking, I knew I was definitely being used for help. I felt I could trust my alliance to DD/Shawna/Kourtney much more. Anyway, I had spoken to Danielle and you the most of Ropes at the time. I wasn't chatting with Vee nearly as much as the rest of you guys but I still trusted her.

I was left to fend for myself when I was sent to Kraken and you guys had the comfort (Or so you thought lol) of Quawan. You and Miki made me feel the most comfortable. You always suggested you could pass me the idol if I needed it, and Miki was always showing concern about my safety and if a challenge required throwing. When you got blindsided the first time, it is there where my relationship with Vee picked up tenfold. I really expressed to her how I would never vote her out of the game and that whatever beef she had with you guys did not effect me and her. I was not about to have the last remaining idol in the game against me either. It's really hard to rank Miki and Vee because they were virtually the same to me. After you left, Vee said she would pass me her idol if I needed it which instilled more trust between us whether it was true or not. So even though I would rank Miki/Vee the same, I put Miki higher since she showed more care and concern about me surviving.

At merge my relationships with Vee and Miki had improved a lot since the original formation of Ropes. By the time you came back they were enough to surpass you in terms of trust. You returning to the game was a weird feeling. While I loved to have you back, part of me was worried for what it meant for my longevity.

2. Name 5 things you learned on a personal level about each juror that you didn't know before this game. If you can't name 5, then name however many you can. If you can name 5, then please do.

[Snakecepia "Judas" Towery]

Well, I don't really know where to begin. I guess I'll just start from the beginning with you. When I first saw you as a replacement, I'm not sure if you remember how excited I was. I was so happy that the coven 2.0 could live on. Than fast forward to the swap and ropes was formed. I'll admit, this was so ideal for me and I loved every single member of that group. It really was so badass.

You and I got REALLY close during this game. I'm starting to believe that is just part of your gameplay, which really hurts a lot. I put a lot of my game into you and I got to know you on a level that I don't usually do in ORGs. I remember sitting in class and we were snap chatting and I gave you my number to just text me cause I couldn't be on the computer in class. I wouldn't do that if I didn't actually feel extremely close to you.

And then, you blindside me the first time. I was devastated. I didn't really even care about the game at that point, I was more upset because I felt used. Apparently you didn't see the friendship the way I did at the time and the fact that I still don't think I did anything to YOU personally to deserve that makes it even worse. You were, at one point, right behind DD/Miki on my list of allies in this game.

5. Judd

^I won't show the rest of that list, but that was put in my confessional the round that we voted out Ibrehem. You were right there, it just didn't make sense to me and I still don't really understand it.

But then I came back into the game and you told me that you wouldn't vote for me again because you knew how much I was hurt. I knew that didn't mean for the remainder of the game and I got that totally, but I think you need to be cleared up with some things. I was with you totally...you can ask anyone that I was close to. I was 100% with you when I came back into the game. DD got frustrated with me because I trusted you so easily again, but I saw you as a genuine person. WHOOPS KIM IS A MORON I GUESS.

Your reasoning for voting me off the second time was because I was against you, so you said. But to be fair, I didn't come after you until you made it very clear to me where your loyalties stood. Come on, I'm not an idiot. I knew once Colby left that you were not working with me and I STILL tried getting Chase and Shawna to vote Sean the next round KNOWING that you weren't with me. Yet, you voted me out because I was coming after you lol you make it sound like if I wasn't coming after you then you wouldn't have voted me. Bullshit Vecepia. You bullshitted me all game and made me look like a fool almost as much as Miki did.

Hey Kim! Thanks for your questions. To address your statement, I don’t want you to think I just used you in this game. I know that me talking about this in a Jury thread probably won’t come off as genuine, but I really did enjoy you as a person. As I said in my opening, I didn’t set out to hurt or humiliate anyone in this game, and that was never my intention with you. I will admit at the time of the first blindside I was lost in the game, and didn’t think about the magnitude of our relationship in the aftermath. I was just so ready to make a move and play the game that I did indeed lose myself somewhere along the way, and that in doing that, I was just playing the game. It wasn’t anything personally motivated, and it wasn’t because I didn’t like you. It was because I had been asked back to play and I was going to play. You just ended up being a casuality of my gameplay. I do feel that you’re very hurt about the results of this, and I want to send my sincerest apologies. I don’t know if you’ll accept, or if it even holds a grain of salt to you right now, but I really do feel bad for the toll this game has taken on our friendship and I’m sorry from the bottom of my heart. Now onto your questions.

1. What did I do to you? Why was I always a target of your's through the game? Why couldn't we just work together? Why couldn't I be included in the Miki/Vee group once Danielle left? It's what I wanted, why didn't you?

When it comes to what you did to me, it wasn't necessarily what you did so much as it was I felt like you were always in DD’s court and down for what she wanted more than myself. I knew allowing DD to hold control was bad for my longevity in the game, and that’s how a target shifted onto you during the round Ibe left.

As far as working together goes, the reason I didn’t want to work with you, or trust you was because I knew once Wanda/Alexis/Chase left I was going to have exhausted all my allies, and I didn’t trust you and DD having all the power. I knew DD was going to screw me the first opportunity she got and by eliminating people who not only had my back, but were willing to go to the end with me, over players like DD who wanted me out soon, or Judd who at that point I hadn’t connected with, wasn’t a wise decision on my part. In that world, I was setting myself up to be an early merge boot. I felt working with you would have resulted in me getting screwed along the way, and even if you had me as a priority in your list of allies, that didn’t mean you had any intention to take me to the end, or that you weren’t going to let me go home eventually. Miki informed me you never had any intention of sitting next to me at the finals, which to me translated that I would have to vote you out at some point.

The reason you weren’t included in the group once DD left was because I figured at that point, you would just be biding your time until you could blindside me. I knew you wouldn’t go against Miki, but I felt had I left myself vulnerable to keeping you in the know, you would have just waited until you had the chance to take me out. Even if this is what you wanted, I still was unsure of whether to trust it or not, and that’s why I didn’t want you to be included in it.

2. Were you happy with ropes? Did you just join it because you didn't want to say no? Was it your ideal group at the time?

When the group started, I was thrilled with it, and I didn’t join it just for the hell of it. I felt the five us were working very well together and got along really well. Our connections with everyone really allowed us to have insight on what was going on throughout the entire game. I did know in joining it, it was going to keep me in the know, and any information I received I could store away for if I needed it later. As far as it being my ideal group at the time, I’d argue I wanted Alexis in it, just so I felt I had someone else to lean on, but I was also well aware that wasn’t going to happen. I will say that I didn’t want this group to be the F5. I knew I would want DD out before then at the time it formed, so in that respect you could argue it was not my ideal group, however I did feel DD was an essential member. Regardless it was an alliance I was content with and am happy to have been a member of.

3. Why was it okay to turn on me twice but it wasn't ever okay to turn on Sydney or Miki? You said you voted me out the first time to help your game, so why didn't you vote out Sydney at F5? There's gotta be something I'm not seeing. Did you value your friendship with Sydney over my friendship? I thought our's was genuine, did you?

I never turned on Miki because we were always taking each other to the finals. I felt we were a Romber in this game and I was never turning on her because she was my F2 partner, not to mention I felt my gameplay was stronger than hers, so going to the end with her was a win-win for me. I got to go to the end with my closest ally and potentially win the game.

With Sydney, I’ve been expecting this question a lot and there were a plethora of factors for Sydney staying at the F5 like she did. Strategically the reason I didn’t vote Sydney out was because I knew Sydney and Sean were going to vote each other out at the F4. There was nothing that was going to change that, so in voting out Chase at the F5, I was eliminating the possibility of a tie the following round. To me, there was no point in taking out the big player if I wasn’t going to make it to the end, and I didn't want to have to rely on the immunity challenge to secure my spot in the finals. I have gone on the record and stated that emotion played a role in my decision to keep Sydney, which is true. I also acquired her phone number in the game, and I didn’t want to vote her out at that point, but it wasn’t a decision based strictly on emotion as there was strategy behind it. I felt the risk was greater than the reward and that if I was going to take her out it would need to be at the F4. Knowing that could be my last chance to take her out, I also asked myself why should I be scared of facing Sydney in the finals? Many players had felt I was the strongest player in the game once DD left, and I felt the strategic game I played was much stronger than hers. Sydney had to rely on many, many, more immunities than I did. I felt that having to rely on challenges as much as she did was going to give me an edge over her.

When it came to you, voting you out had nothing to do with our relationship not being genuine or even valuing the one I had with Sydney/Miki over you. It had to do with I felt you were in more of a position to screw me or vote me out and that’s why I voted you out both times. Sydney was always in a position where she needed me at the merge, and without me, Sydney would have never gotten close to the finals. Until the DD vote, you didn’t need me. You had other allies who could back you up, and that’s another reason I ended up siding with Sydney and going as far with her as I did. I saw our relationship as genuine but I also know I've been screwed over by people who I felt were genuine with me before. A recurring phrase in this game is trust no one, so I just put myself on an offensive to not be the person on the burnt end of the stick.

4. Why didn't you tell me I was going the 2nd time? You knew there was nothing I could do to save myself. Even if you didn't tell me before the deadline, why couldn't you tell me before results?

I didn’t tell you, you were going the second time because I didn’t want you to make an attempt to scramble before the deadline and rally votes against me. I know you think there is absolutely nothing you could have done, but I felt that had you really put your mind to it, you could have done some damage. This is one of the main reasons I lied to so many people during the game, was because I was oftentimes the swing vote in many of the voting decisions, playing both sides. Just because someone is the swing vote, doesn’t mean it’s impossible to turn the vote on them. I felt if I told you that you were leaving, you would try to turn the tables on me. I know you’re a very capable game player so had I been like, "Sorry Kim you got to go," you could have run to others and told them that I was working you for a Jury vote, or maybe utilized our personal relationship as well as anything else I had said to you earlier in the game to turn others against me. It was about keeping myself safe. I also didn’t want to tell you on the off chance you got something good at the auction, or had something passed to you, and then decided to use it against me. I felt like this was a slim chance, but I didn’t want to take the risk. Last but not least, I was aware in lying to you and upsetting you that I was sending someone to the jury that was angry at me. I felt if for some reason I lost my grasp on the game and had players on the jury who were upset with me, other players still in the game, would still want to go to the end with me based on the sole factor that they felt the Jury would be too upset with me to vote for me in the end. This last portion is why I didn't tell you you were leaving before results.

5. What is your biggest regret throughout the course of this entire game? Why?

I think the biggest regret I have, might be stringing people along like I did at times, but even that had strategy behind it. If anything I regret it just because I know it made the emotional sting a little bit worse when you guys got voted out. Despite playing such a cutthroat game I really do not enjoy hurting people and that would be why I regret it.

Questions for all:

1. If you had to rank the members of ropes, who were you closest to when ropes was FIRST formed? And then, who were you closest to when we MERGED? And, if the list changed between those time frames, why is that? So basically, just a 1-4 list with 1 being who you were closest to and 4 being who you felt least close to.

First formed:
1. Miki
2. Kim
3. Sydney
4. DD

At this point in time I still trusted the relationship we had. Miki was still going to be my top ally, but you were behind her just because I was tighter with her, and I knew you had a strong allegiance to DD. Sydney is above DD because I trusted her and had a stronger relationship with her than I had with DD.

Merge:
1. Miki
2. Sydney
3. Kim
4. DD

Come the merge, Sydney and I had been talking more, while we were still in the process of mending fences. DD remains at the bottom because I still didn’t trust her, and Miki remained at the top because she was still my prime ally. The list only changes due to me voting you out, and being concerned that you would be after me coming back into the game, as well as due to a strengthened connection to Sydney.

Edit: I do want to add in. That when you came back and we patched things up, I was being genuine about wanting to work with you, and up until the Alexis vote, I felt we were on a good path to be together; however the moment Alexis left the game, was the affirmation you were still solidly in DD's corner and that was when I was firmly against you again, because once again your actions had fallen in line with you being firmly aligned with her, and I knew I was going to be in her sights very soon.
