I think Purple Rock has a right to be upset, Liz. Sorry for taking his side, but I'd be just as pissed off as he is right now. It was a birdman move. Hi. I am a bit disappointed with this finale, seeing as neither of you really contacted me at any time during this game. My mind is pretty much made up as to who I'm voting for, but it can be easily changed. I flip flop on decisions, this being one of them. First off, I would like to apologize to Selah, who seems to think that I am actually an inappropriate potty mouth/drug dealer? I use roles, and I guess I got a little carried away. I became aware of this, when I was told by somebody that you genuinely disliked me because of some of the things I said. With that said, I can go onto some other topics. Jason, you never tried to talk to me until after I was out, when you asked for my help in an immunity challenge. I just didn't get that at all, but at least I got a PM from you. However, you survived the chopping block a number of times, which I respect you for. Selah, on the other hand, it sort of seemed like you floated here. Based on what I saw, you just followed other players. You did win the final challenge and you did boot Birdman, which I respect love you for. But...I never even got a PM from you during the game. Not one. Well...so my questions. Selah - Did you actually think that some of my posts were genuine? Did you actually think that I am like that in real life? Did you actually think that when I said those/these (see above.  ) comments about Birdman, that I was serious? Also, on a scale of 1-10, how difficult is it to send a PM to somebody? Jason - You seemed to stick with Selah a lot of the time. To me, it looked like just following Birdman, but I could be wrong. I would like you to explain your strategy coming into the game and how it was changed throughout it. I'm honestly curious if you had planned to appear as a floater, cause I know some people who do that without realizing it (...Heather. ). Also, lets say you won the final immunity challenge. Who would you have brought to the finale? Birdman or Selah? You were close to both, no? Good luck to both of you.  |

Purple Rock told me no more alliance in Survivor Earth. And can we talk about that somewhere other than here? I had my reasons for that move, I wouldn't say it was of no benefit. I think it was probably the best move in ALL my ORGs. And it is NOT a birdman move. But I don't care. Tyler has the opinion that Birdman is one of the best ORG players ever, so I guess I should be flattered? Oh wait. I'm not answering jury questions here. |

[quote author=nursejoy board=seifinaltc thread=2890 post=35850 time=1216486731Hi.

[/quote] Drug dealer, no. Never said that. Never thought that. Potty mouth? Can you deny it? Was it part of your character? Probaby, but I don't have a potty mouth with any character or in real life...you have to have that as part of who you are for real for it to come into a game. Do I fault you or judge you for that? No not really but when we merge and the first thing I see from you is posting things illicit at camp I have to make a judgment call. From the little that I saw of you, I decided that A) I didn't want to work with you B) That I was going to make sure you had a quick exit The reasons behind this were simple. You were a strong personality. Your antics were not only well received but encouraged which showed me that you had power. THIS was the reason that I made sure to have you voted out so soon. Was this following Bird or anyone else? Not for a minute. Now onto your other concerns. I didn't PM you not because I didn't want to talk to you but because I had already seen who you were at camp and said hi there. The merge actually happened at a really inopportune time for you and me to get to know each other as I was headed out for a 10 day vacation. You are very quick to judge me for not contacting you via PM but I guess the same could be said for you not sending me a PM? I did say hi to you at camp and commented on your posts there. I played an extremely social game, ask anyone. If you honestly think that I floated then you were too far removed from the game after you were voted out. I didn't float at all. I made my alliances and I stuck with them to the end of the game. I made a lot of decisions in this game from the very moment that it started, so I would ask for you to just look over the prior questions and my responses to see more of that. However, if you have a further question about my strategy that you don't see answered, I would be happy to answer it. But don't assume that I floated just because we didn't talk. As far as me only winning the last IC challenge....that was by design. Sure I made sure to play in all the challenges so in case the results were read it wouldn't look like I didn't care. I didn't need to win, I didn't need to be seen as an immunity threat. I had formed my position in the game so that I wasn't considered by enough people to be successful. Ask Rock...he tried several times to muster votes for me but couldn't get enough people. I ensured that Jason submitted and won final 4 immunity. This was a decision made because with him having immunity, he and I had more power going into the final 3. Our 2 votes would have decided who went...Bird or Ray. We didn't need either of them, this was design. However, if I had taken that challenge then we would have been in a pickle because Ray and Bird could have and likely would have forced a tie on Jason. Jason and Ray had the same number of votes so it was a toss up that I wasn't willing to risk. Me winning the final challenge was chance! I needed to win this one! I completed the main part of the challenge before either Bird or Jason but had to wait for ex-players to respond with their answers as did Jason. Bird decided to take a chance and send in what he had and this combined with other mistakes cost him a chance at the challenge. I submitted without 2 of the final answers from players but one guess turned out to be credited....Jason and me tied but my time was better. However, I didn't try to stop Jason from winning and sent him the absolute correct answer on what Chet had submitted. If my answer wasn't accepted then I wanted to ensure that Jason won that challenge too. I knew that he would take me...we had that alliance from the beginning. He and I designed our fate in this game. We used Bird but as Bird admitted, there were many times that Jason and me did things that Bird didn't want.....we did this because we WEREN'T floating! I hope that this helps you with your questions on my game....and I also hope that you aren't too upset with me for not wanting to play with you. It was a strong first impression that stuck with me and sometimes a first impression is all that is needed in these games. I would welcome the chance to get to know you....the non-potty mouth you....when this game is over! Let me know if you need anything more to be answered! |

Oops...wrong word. I meant follower. Anyway, thank you for judging me before even speaking to me. And I also love that you based the way you think of me, not Nurse Joy, on a first impression from one of my few posts in camp. First impressions tend to be deceitful, most people know that. And even then, shouldn't you even put an effort into figuring out if the first impression is correct? |

Why are you smiling if that was the reason you disliked me? Talkative...okay, I won't deny that one. Lastly, schemer?! ME? Of all people, this just shows that you never even got to know me. In this game, I didn't scheme at all. I made deals, and I intended to keep those deals. I don't lie, I don't scheme, I don't manipulate, I don't blindside. I think you might have gotten me confused with somebody else.  Thanks. I found it funny how different the two answers were. Selah focused mainly on negative traits (does she even know a single positive word to describe me??) while Jason focused on the positive, even if it does seem like a kiss-up move. |

Hey NJ, Welcome Back! My strategy coming into this game was to not cause any drama and just play the game. I also wanted to stick to one or two people and not have to make a million promises and be a huge liar. I wanted to play fair and simple and I know that that may have seemed under the radar or as a floater, the truth is that we weren't together for almost the entire game so you can't be sure what I did. I did work hard to save myself a lot. One of the reasons you and I never really talked was because we weren't on the same tribe, and that wasn't really allowed. I asked if you would help me with the challenge so I could get rid of Birdman. Had I won the final challenge (and I still argue that I should have) I would have 100% taken Selah. i had no deal with Birdman and in fact we were trying to get rid of him earlier but decided not to. I hope this helps, and welcome back! |

You said this wasn't the place for this and look what you're doing. You have your story wrong and I'll be messaging you later to get you straightened up on a few things. And because Birdman is apart of this game I'll say this: I think he is one of the best AND one of the worst at the same time. In order for him to be good at one thing in the game, it requires him to be horrible at something else (mainly because he had alliances with everyone at some point and pissed everyone off). Selah and Jason on the other hand were just good, they weren't horrible at anything really. |

NurseJoy....
This was my impression of you and then I went on a 10-day vacation. You never PMd me either so arguing that I should have contacted you or should have done something to get to know you past my first impression is extremely one-sided. Yes, first impressions CAN be wrong, but in these games (especially at a merge or the beginning of the game) a bad first impression can affect you. Chet gave a bad first impression with his tribe and this led to his immediate depature. No one needed the opportunity to get to know him after their first impression. You gave me no reason to second guess my first impression through your posts at camp and through your avatar and its description.
As Jason pointed out....we weren't on the same tribe....so we couldn't talk to you. I went on vacation very soon after we merged. The decision I made about you is apparently correct and was the best move that I could have made as you are obviously a strong personality. The 3 words that I used to describe you were my impressions of you, honest descriptions. I called you raunchy because you presented yourself as such. I called you talkative because you are (and so am I.) I called you a schemer, aka power player, beccause I didn't see you as the back of an alliance, I saw you as the driver and I have stated this many times so you have to know that the word didn't mean that you were underhanded. Schemer isn't a bad thing. I schemed and plotted the whole game. I put a smiley face after the raunchy description because I don't harbor ill feelings. This was who YOU chose to present yourself as. The only negative description I gave of you was raunchy as talkative and schemer are not. Not stating the obvious of you being raunchy would have been dishonest of me, especially since this part of your personality stood out so dominant.

Yet you tell people that you dislike me, not Nurse Joy, me, because of my posts.

To be clear, I never kiss up. Not worth it, you either respect my game play or you don't. I used words I really felt described the characters.
Take it how you want. Thanks all.

Nurse.....I never said I didn't like the person behind the character....although...I really don't think that I do, not because of the foul mouthed person you chose to present yourself as but because you are being childish over someone not liking that type of person. It is my choice to not be around that type of person. If that is who you really are then no I wouldn't like you.
But just to be clear...I never said to anyone...I don't like whoever that person is behind Nurse Joy....I said...I don't like Nurse Joy because of the way she decides to carry herself online. I have played in several games with people who do this....and actually, I wouldn't be surprised to find out in the end that you are the character from another game I played with who was the same way.
