I dunno if it's just me or what but all I have read is a bunch of fluff, sugar coating bullshit that doesn't support anything that's been actually done in this game. I was trying to wait and see if some of my questions were answered, but I'm going to just get this started as I'm unaware of who I'm voting for as of now.
Nakky When you and Sarah were nominated together, I potentially screwed my whole game over by not knocking your number out. I thought we were really solid, and then out of no where your trust with me went from like 90-0. If you let me win that veto, I would have saved you 100% and we both would have been safe. Instead I was like inches away from James backdooring me.
Why didn't you let me win that veto, and did Justin tell you some information about who I was?
Amy Yeah you got to the final 2 by doing the exact opposite of what the correct strategical moves would have been. That's not the point, you risked getting 3rd place for me leaving at final 5 because I'm a jury threat which is the biggest joke in this entire game. Especially when you were the #1 jury threat out of anyone, and it blows my mind how the other 3 people did not see it. That is where you got lucky to make the finals, the last 3 rounds you didn't make any strategical move. You simply got lucky to have 2 guys, a girl and a pizza place drag you to the finals because they're oblivious to the obvious of where the jury is at. I don't care if you won a veto, you are the luckiest person alive or you were just in the final 4 with 3 of the stupidest people alive.... take your pick
If you got lucky during the last 3 rounds, and in between the jury stage you were seen as a zero threat, so that's 3 more rounds where you stayed over someone else just for the fact of being weak. Where's the game play, the strategy taken to get you further in the game? Were you really playing the JordanBB11 strategy which in my eyes is non existent.
To the both of you: Again I'm seeing a lot of I did this, I did that without any examples or any specific things on what you did in the game. I don't want to hear about anything before the final 9, I know what went on there and I don't care what you did before that.
From the final 9 stage to the end of the game. Go week by week, and give me a brief description on what you did that week to keep yourself safe and anything else that you did that would impress me. I don't want a novel, a couple sentences for each week will do. Don't sugar coat anything, simply get to the point.
One last thing...

Hi Nathan! Okay, ready for this? I have a feeling this is going to take awhile for me to type. I know everyone thinks I just got by on luck and that I was weak, blah blah blah blah blah. This is seriously all stuff I've heard before. People so often underestimate me that I do get to the final two in a lot of games. It's always the same kind of questions. Just like this one that I get.
Well, as for my strategy/game play/ and so on, I obviously wanted to play the game socially, which is like the best strategy to play if you know me. I’m not this awesome challenge whore that always wins everything. I very seldom win at challenges truthfully. I like to stick with what I’m best at doing, which is talking. I pretty much relied on it fully knowing that I needed my connections in the game to get me by from round to round. I never actually felt 100% safe, but I guess it’s just something about the risk that makes the game more fun. Anyways, I planned on talking to everyone in the game and actually keeping myself an alias, which didn’t last long at all because I have a big mouth. I wanted to find a group of people that I knew I could trust and work with them, but in the background always have someone else that I would secretly be a lot closer too. That person was supposed to be Justin. This part of my strategy only worked out for a total of like four weeks, which totally pissed me off when it came to an end. Anyways, during that time Justin and I were on completely different sides of the game, so I knew who was playing both sides. All the sides of the game seemed to be pretty obvious. Like I said, soon after Justin got voted out, which messed up my final two, at this time I had other people I felt close and secure too like Erika. Erika seemed like a loner in the game and someone I would totally get along with. Okay, actually I knew for a fact I’d get along with her. Every round I’d plot and talk to her about what moves with should make and when we should make them. Anyways, long story short, after Erika was voted out I didn’t really know what to do. I knew I was playing for myself and I wouldn’t really be able to trust anyone. I think I jumped around a lot at the end of the game, but I was making the moves I felt were right for me. I was always thinking of one person before I thought of anyone else. That was me.
Anyways, you can say my strategy was stupid and I didn’t win all these wonderful challenges, but I did a lot more than win challenges, I knew what was going on in the game at almost all times. I think that was a lot more valuable than winning any challenge was at all. Plus, even when I was nominated, which was five different times in this game, I never got evicted and all of you people kept me around. It just seems kind of crazy to me, to let me stick around all this time for no good reason at all. You don't have to win challenges to be a good player. HOH and veto competitions change week to week, and they can be unpredictable. It's a lot smarter to rely on your social strategy rather than rely on winning competitions. I found a way to keep me safe throughout the game, and I didn't need to win competitions. That doesn't make me a weak player; it makes me a smart one
As for week to week play, here is what happened in my book:
Justin’s Eviction: This week was pure hell if you ask me. Roddy was HoH and I wasn’t really that close that I was going to get people I wanted nominated. He ended up putting up Erika and Danielle, which I thought were terrible nominations. Anyone who nominated Danielle, I thought was just looking for an easy way out. This is the week the big plan to backdoor Nathan went down and yes, everyone I’m the person who told him about it. He was one of my closest allies at the time and I felt it was necessary he knew what was going to happen. I figured he should know he needed to work extra hard to get POV, which he did. He took down Erika, which made me worlds of happy. The only bad news is that Justin went up. Believe me, I tried to tell people that Justin wasn’t a threat and that he didn’t need to leave the game, but no one listened really. It ranks up there with one of the worst moments in the game.
Roddy’s Eviction: This week was a cluster fuck, but turned out alright. Basically, someone told James I was the one running back to Nathan and giving him all this information. James told me it was Janelle who told him all this stuff, but I don’t know if I believe that still to this day. That was the moment James knew he was going to nominate Nathan and myself. I was totally freaked out by the thought of going up against Nathan because I knew I’d go home. I didn’t understand a lot of things this week like why Nathan wanted to be put up on the block and how things played out, but it turns out Nathan had the Coup D’etat. This was probably one of the more happy moments in the game.
Janelle’s Eviction: This week Nakomis won HoH, which of course wasn’t good for me at the time. We were still against each other. I figured I was getting nominated, but I didn’t realize it was going to be against Janelle. Of course, neither of us won POV leaving both of us on the block. This is the week I realized how close Sarah and Nakomis were because Sarah ended up talking Nakomis out of making me her target for the week. As luck goes, even though we both tried hard for POV, Janelle ended up leaving the house. This is also the week where I started to question Sarah in my head about what she was doing even though I knew her plan was for Janelle to leave. I didn’t really campaign this round just because it was Janelle and I had a feeling I was staying already. Janelle left because she was a threat in the game over me.
Danielle’s Eviction: Another joyful week of being on the block, as Jee is the HoH in charge. It was just ridiculous he even nominated me. I don’t care if he didn’t have any intentions of me going home the combination of us both being up just didn’t make sense to me. Anyways, the nominations stayed the same and POV wasn’t used again. I was really nervous this week because I didn’t trust half the people still left in the game, but it ended up being okay. This is the round where I really lost a lot of trust for everyone, but Erika. Things were just so much harder. Erika and I started talking about targeting threats in the game and this might have happened IF we were good at challenges. Haha.
Sarah’s Eviction: This week James won HoH and I had started talking to him. Janelle had previously told us when she left she wanted us to work together. It was like her last dying wish or something. Lol. But we both wanted to honor it. He ended up nominating Sarah and Nakomis because of the rumor that they had a final two going on. Everyone seemed to be so caught up into it. At the POV, it came down between Nakomis and Nathan getting the POV. That is when I completely begged Nakomis to take POV for herself, I know Nakomis isn’t my favorite in games all the time, but number one I didn’t want her getting screwed and number two I thought it might gain me a little trust from her. She took POV and Jee went up. I ended up lying about voting out Jee and voting out Sarah. This all ended really badly because I had tried to cover everything up, but somehow things got messed up. Sarah left. This was the round that I promised Jee, a final two, and swear on my life I’d honor what I said.
Erika’s Eviction: This week Nathan won HoH, which was completely bad for me, so I figured I was already on the block. Nathan said it was a last minute choice, but it certainly didn’t feel that way. Or maybe I was just really paranoid about everything. I wasn’t happy about the nomination, but there wasn’t much I could do at all about anything. Of course, neither of us won POV, even though I’m pretty sure we were very close. Nothing seemed to fall into place this week and everything was falling apart. The only good thing was I felt like I had everyone in the game on my side. Saddest moment ever, Erika leaves the game.
Nathan’s Eviction: This week Jee won HoH, and everyone had been talking about getting out Nathan. Everyone knew he was a huge threat in the game. James kind of talked to both Jee and me about arranging something. I figured he had talked to Nakomis too, but it doesn’t look like it from what Nokomis said. Jee won POV and the nominations stayed the same. Nakomis and I made a final two. Nathan and I got into a huge fight and this week sucked.
Jee’s Eviction: This week Nakomis won HoH and since we had previous made a final two I thought I was golden to be safe this round, but the truth is she almost nominated me because of the post Nathan had made during this week. She didn’t want people to think we had a final two, but we found away to go around it and everything was just fine. No one has any idea how hard I studied for POV. Yes, I studied. Lol. I can’t remember challenge stuff like everyone else. Anyways, I got POV. That next day, I thought about it a lot and who I was going to vote out. I really weighed my options and thought about what was best for me. I finally decided that voting Jee out would be the best thing for me in the game.
James’s Eviction: This week was all up to Nakomis. I basically just told her I really wanted final two and that I thought I deserved to be next to her in the final two. We talked about how we thought votes would go and she asked me several questions to confirm my feeling s about certain things. At the end she voting out James and not me.
Okay, this is most of what happened during the week. If it didn’t seem like I did a lot during some of the evictions parts I posted it was because I was talking to people and influencing. I was asking questions and trying to understand who the person was. I also, always made the best moves for me and not for anyone else. If I thought the move would get me farther ahead in the game I went with it. The last couple rounds where it felt like I was jumping around a little bit, it was because I was looking at people’s characters and figuring out who I thought was telling the truth. Overall, this is what I felt like happened every eviction. Thanks for this question. If you have any more questions, go ahead and ask them. Thank you.
