Question 1:
Tell me, in list form, who you fucked over the worst in the jury and how.
Don't leave out ANY details, because I will know. And don't kiss ass either. That's stupid.
1. Cordelia: For me to win this game, Cordelia was the final and most important piece in the puzzle. I knew she was strong, I knew she was close with Kyle, Madison and who-knew who else and I needed her to get rid of other people that was in my way to win this game. I made a F2 deal with her, I gave her my heart and I talked to her about moves and strategies every round (even more than I did with Kyle). I worked with her in challenges, gave her every detail that was on my mind (or that I wanted her to think that was on my mind) and specifically manipulated the way I felt about Marie and Fiona so that she saw me as someone that was weak and that felt used by others to gain her trust. I voted her out at F4 because she was a winner already, because she could probably beat me at F3 or F2 and because even though everyone hated her at the beginning she made it pretty far: a true underdog story.
2. Madison: I had a final 3 with her that I never planned to keep. As the game moved on, I knew she was tight with Fiona and Marie, knew she was tight with Cordelia and also knew she was tight with Kyle. She was playing us all and at the end she was going to get the best of it because everyone was going to take her to the end. Since I planned to take Fiona out, I knew Madison had to go soon after, she was well liked by everyone and was also a killer in challenges. I gave her my word several times and convinced her to make moves and votes she didn't wanted to make all on my trust. However, my word was not true because I saw her as my biggest competition and wanted her out. Even her close relationship with Kyle made me feel she could convince Kyle to go to the end, and that was not good for me.
3. Marie: I fucked you over because we had a F5 deal that I broke. We had a great relationship and talked a lot and this was all true; but, that great relationship that probably told you you could trust me was also built for you to do so while I backstabbed you. You were a huge threat physically and mentally and had to go; even before Fiona. (This was also a seed I planted on everyone's head.) If this didn't happen my way it was me going home soon after, and you probably winning the game.
4. Fiona: I had a F5 with Fiona that I did not intend to keep. This was decided soon because Fiona and Marie seemed tight, because they seemed strong and because the person who made the first move between the F5 alliance was the one that was going to the end. I didn't talk to Fiona much but the times we did talked (specially in the group chats) I tried to be as friendly and engaging as possible so that they saw me as a bit naive and a bit not-controller, that way when I made the move no one was expecting it from me. So I lied to her, to Marie and to Madison several times. I even decided to go around kissing, hugging, playing show-your-pussy and more so that they thought I was here to have fun in a game and not here to win.
5. Nan: As surprising as this may sound I never lied to Nan. I knew she had played a quiet game throughout the competition but I also knew when she had to talk or had to vote she did it to better her game so I was scared that at some point she would wake up and do whatever was best for her game. Because of that, I had to put aside what I felt about her "character" and try to make a huge bond with her so that she knew I was with her and I genuinely wanted to keep her, that way she would vote with me and not try anything sketchy at all. The only probable lie was me promising to take her to F2 because had that happened I'm not sure if I would've taken her or Kyle. But I never had to make that decision, so that truth/lie never came to fruition.
6. Carl: I nominated Carl (directly and indirectly) for as much as I wanted and felt like throughout this game so I think I fucked him over pretty much. I especially fucked him over when him, queenie and delphine tried to make a move on us and nominated me and Cordelia. Cordelia took herself off and then too myself off and they ended up losing Queenie. I still remember how much he cried. It was sad. I also had a big hand on his supreme win and then auto nomination because I wrote a message to the host telling him it was a joke for him to not nominate and not decide who to take out. After I sent this message the host gave the time ultimatum to Carl that ultimately sentenced him and took him home.
Question 2:
If you had it your way, what placings would everyone have had?
(Jury only, based on your relationship with that person, not their jury management skills.)
When you say based on my relationships there's two ways I look at it.
Person I liked the most:
1. Marie
2. Cordelia
3. Madison
4. Fiona
5. Carl
6. Nan
Person I was the closest to:
1. Cordelia
2. Marie
3. Madison
4. Nan
5. Fiona
6. Carl
Question 3:
What was your biggest single handed move this game? Did you have one?
(In detail please.)
My biggest move in this game was the relationship I built with Cordelia. Before that, I was pretty quiet in the game and let other people do their stuff without me being involved. After that, I knew I had to make power moves not only to get to the end but to possibly win with your jury votes. I decided to make Cordelia my confidant and I truly did tell her everything I felt about the game. I told her how I felt about the F5 I had, I told her what I felt about Madison, I obviously fabricated stuff about Kyle and all in all I tried for her to see me as a sister and see me as someone that had been quiet all this time and was finally telling what she felt. If I hadn't made this move we wouldn't have defeated the Queenie-Carl-Delphine alliance that came to life after Delphine was supreme. This also helped me to vote out Carl, Delphine, Fiona, Madison and Marie one by one. And probably also ensured me that in the case that Cordelia got to Final 2 she would've taken me and not anybody else.
Other moves that I single handedly made and that benefitted my game:
- Convincing everyone of voting Marie out before voting Fiona. Here was how I convinced people (even Madison who didn't wanted that). I of course made the difference between them clearer to make it look much drastic.
Now, between Marie and Fiona. I was sure I wanted out Fiona but then found out that was us buying her threads' antics about her being supreme and her being a bitch. If we start thinking she's not a threat whatsoever. She's never around. The few times that she is around she tries to make deals with everyone but we all know she's bullshitting us so no one is really with her. I think she has never tried a challenge and doesn't even care about them. Even when she is in jeopardy.
Marie is stronger. When she has to try for a challenge she does. She won a power last round. And she's also strong in Horror17 she's in final 5 already there. She will do a challenge when she needs to. And if we get rid of Fiona this round, Marie will be supreme next and she will be pissed at us for voting out Fiona.
Fiona on the other hand is malleable. And we can tell her beforehand that it was either her or Marie and someone can promise her a deal and that would be it.
We need to get as much power as we get. This is our chance.- My relationship with Nan at the end to ensure me Final 2 in case she got there first and to ensure me she voted with me.
- My early on decision to vote out Madison before she got too close to Kyle and before she got too much of a power to make moves herself.
- My three SUPREMACIES. More than anyone in this game. I even went for supreme after being supreme one round before and was the only one that discovered this could be done. This made me the only one who thought about this and the only one who took Cordelia and Madison out by her own hands. Ensuring my safety no matter what.
Question 4:
(Individual Questions)
Zoe:
Why did you keep Nan until F3, when you wanted her out before we got rid of Spalding?
You said she was making fun of special needs people and that you were seriously offended.
What changed?
That was the only point of the game where I allowed you guys to see my true colours and to see a part of me that I really wanted to show. I am very emotional and I let myself be guided by my heart and at that point of the competition I was fed up about Nan's behaviour because it looked to me like low-blow after low-blow after low-blow against people with her condition. It hurt me deeply and I wanted her out. Despite this being true, Nan allowed her floater game to keep her alive because other more threatening contenders came around and had to be voted out. I think you girls can understand this because we voted Queenie, Delphine and Carl out before Nan because we all agreed they had to go first and we could still control Nan's vote more and she was less of a threat. That exact feeling that allowed you to keep Nan during those rounds was the one that allowed me to do so, despite my true feelings against her, when I needed to vote Fiona, Marie, Madison and Cordelia out and I needed the numbers from someone that was not part of that which at the end always turned out to be Nan. Nothing changed though, I always felt offended by it, and still feel offended by it and I swallowed it time after time, not even telling anything more to Nan about it because I knew I probably needed her in my game so I had to keep quiet about it.
I think this proves my determination to win even more, because I went against my true feelings and hid them in order to achieve what I wanted and despite this hurting me deeply and truly affecting me in my real life.
Question 4:
(Individual Questions)
Both:
You guys were so pumped about our F5, yet you destroyed it without a second thought.
Bringing your "enemies" further than your "allies". Yeah you got F2, but was it worth fucking with your relationships?
I'm sorry if this is the answer you don't expect but IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT. I'm not going to say I was not annoyed by Marie and Fiona at the beginning about how they treated others in this game. I was very annoyed and when I got annoyed with Nan because of what she was doing I was also secretly annoyed with Marie and Fiona for being disrespectful to everyone and thinking they were better than everyone. However, this was not the reason for me to vote you girls out (like Kyle explained his), my reason was clear... In a moment when we got to Final 5 I was the bottom link and the person being voted out even before Kyle. At the beginning, the Final 5 seemed like a good idea because we seemed like the clear-headed people of the game and everyone else was scattered around and not doing much for their life.... that way, we had 5 votes secured and then we could gather some others from the floating people in the game and it made it for an easy ride for us for many and many and many rounds. However, before the merge hit I KNEW that Marie-Fiona and Madison were tight. I knew this because when we tried to make the Final 3 deal with Madison and Kyle I also knew there were deals with Fiona hanging there and Madison was never fully on board about voting you girls out "until the time was right". This was also proven for me when I tried to talk strategy with Marie and she left me hanging and didn't wanted to compromise about anything. You girls were sketchy, I felt like 5th on an alliance of five and the only way up was to find my "enemies" and group with them to vote out the people that wasn't taking me anywhere in the game. It was totally WORTH IT because I know you girls have played this game tons of times before and I know you can keep relationships apart from the game. The relationships we built were real and I am more than glad to continue them when the game is over. So I didn't fucked over our relationship I fucked over our links in the game in order for me to move forward. It doesn't sound fair to you because you guys were probably pretty comfortable and secure you were going til' the end but it makes sense to me because it was my one and only option.
---
I appreciate you taking the time to address us in this matter so that we give a closure and end to our links-in-the-game and to the game in general the way it deserves, the big way.
Thank you.
Z.
