Prevote: Lindsey

Gabe: We HARDLY conversed in the 2 days I spent on the merged tribe before leaving. I can't even remember a key conversation, I had to send you mails. Of course, this could've changed as the game progressed, but I literally saw NO EFFORT on your part to get to know me as a person or a competitor. What did you do after I left that would count as "sole survivor" worthy? Why should I vote for you, instead of my two lovergirl Tamanaco'ans.

Linda: I loved talking to you, but you hardly respected me as an ally. Twice I was willing to play this game with you, and twice you didn't do anything in return. I even recall you once telling me that you didn't want to defend me from the vote because you didn't want to ruffle any feathers. What? Me giving up Cacique for you and Lex ruffled tons of feathers. My point is, I was willing to do so much for you, and I never saw any effort for you to do the same in return. What did you do for me in this game? I don't remember you doing one single thing for me.

Lindsey: Premerge, I loved you. Post merged, I loved you even more. You talked to me both as a person and a competitor. You and Kim P gave me the brutal honest truth about my fate and you were WAY too nice to me, even though I was leaving next. I was rooting for you, and I'm VERY happy to see you here. You showed a great capability of both social and strategic gameplay. My only question: What would you change about this game post-merge? Don't tell me what I want to hear. If you were in charge of this whole game, what would you change? The more in-depth you are, the better. Hope you win, girly. It's VERY unlikely that I will be changing my vote at this point. Best of luck <3

Explanation of Cacique:
Well essentially, as Cacique, I was given immunity. In return, I was given special secret tasks that would further distance myself from the rest of the cast. The first one was the worst: I had to NOT submit the challenge results until 45 minutes after the team had finished. As the game progressed, I had to choose who goes to which tribe and further alienate myself in this game. The twist forced me to "label" my tribe with sins, divide myself with some fellow tribe mates in the TC, etc. In the end, I'm not sure if Cacique helped or hurt, but I know i'm not sitting next to you 3 in the finals PX

I"m retyping my speeches to the people voted out. One sec...

[Kim J]

I'm going to give you each a paragraph of my opinion of you, and I really want you guys to correct me if I'm wrong. Furthermore, I want you guys to answer the questions of the paragraph in depth.

Gabe, first of all, congratulations on making it to the end. I'm impressed by the game you played, because it seems as though you had a calm, civil, and consistent approach to this game: something a lot of people did not do. However, it is very unlikely you will be receiving my vote. Lindsey and Linda have an advantage because they both know me a LOT better then I know you. Our relationship is nonexistent. That doesn't really bug me - sometimes, we don't have the ability to talk or we don't have the advantage of being on the same tribe premerge. What does bug me is the fact that you never tried to get to know me. I sent you several mails the night I was leaving, and you sent me literally one response to them: you said that you will talk to me later about the game. Later never came, Gabe. You left me hanging, and eventually, I left the game. As the other jurors joined me, and especially recently, I have come to realize that I'm not the only person that feels this way about you. 5/9ths of this jury has admitted to you hardly talking to them. The rest of the jury is nearly convinced that you played a stellar game, which brings me to my question. Explain how the way you played your game is worthy of the win? Gabe, my vote isn't finalized, but you need to REALLY convince me that you played a GREAT game despite your socially unacceptable approach to a majority of this jury. Thank you, and congrats.

Linda, I'm really happy you're sitting here. Not because I like you as a person (which I do), but because I was a casualty in order for you to get here. I was insanely worried that after you voted me out, that you would leave after I did. You making the finals shows me that you played this game correctly enough to make finals, and you made all the right decisions necessary for you to be here. With that said, you will likely not get my vote tonight. I'm not dissapointed about being voted out (well, maybe a little). I'm mostly dissapointed by the lack of ambition you had for me. You literally told me that you were not willing to fight for me to stay in this game. Hate to say it Linda, but that really hurts. I was more than willing for you and Lex to merge, just for me to find out that maybe I shouldn't have cared about you as much as I did, because clearly, you didn't feel the same way about me. You played a sporadic game (in my point of view) where you constantly doubted yourself as a competitor, and as an ally in our alliance. After discussing with the jury as well, it seems unlikely that you will even pull a single vote from this jury. My questions are: I need you to convince me and this jury why you played a better game then Gabe and Lindsey. My other question is more of a personal one. Why did you feel that not fighting for me to stay in this game wasn't worth it?

Lindsey, congrats on making it to the finals. Although, I'd be lieing if I told you that I was confident that you would make it here. Still, I loved your social gameplay and your strategic gameplay is a vastly underrated one in my opinion. I feel like you deserve to win this game, so you don't have to do much to convince me. However, not a lot of people agree with me. Those are the people you need to convince. Although I'm confident that if you put the effort in, you can do it. I have two questions for you. My first one: could you explain your gameplay in this game postmerge? I'm unsure of how you played this game after I left, and I'd love to see how you evolved as a player. When I left, it seemed as though you had an alliance with Gina/Patty/Gabe. This vastly changed, and I wouldn't mind knowing how. Secondly, could you tell me what approach you were going for in this game? Were you as "manipulative" as some people are labeling you as, or were you a more social contestant in this game? Were you a hero, or a villain, in your eyes? Thanks Lindsey, nice job, good game.

I realize that a lot of my questions are similar, however, this is because I missed a MAJORITY of this game. I need the generalized "cliff-notes" summery of everyone's game in order for me to have a valid opinion in this game. Thanks again.

I was more than willing for you and Lex to merge

hmm, you probs wanna tweak that line, something missing?

Also, *lying not lieing before lex hounds you for it

oof thanks for telling me. I'll fix it.

But whats wrong with the first line? It might sound better in my head. Is it confusing?

[Brenda Lowe]

I'm not sure what you mean. I guess you are going for one of the following;



Hate to say it Linda, but that really hurts. I was more than willing for you and Lex to make it to the merge, just for me to find out that maybe I shouldn't have cared about you as much as I did, because clearly, you didn't feel the same way about me.

Hate to say it Linda, but that really hurts. I was more than willing to work with you and Lex at merge, just for me to find out that maybe I shouldn't have cared about you as much as I did, because clearly, you didn't feel the same way about me.



Something like that?

[Kim J]

ooh I see now. Okay, gotcha. Dunno why I didn't see it earlier XP

Thank you Brenda!

[Brenda Lowe]

No worries. Good luck with your decision
