ok first off Liz I was not inactive I just didn't talk to people who I didn't think it was vital for me to talk to since that's usually what gets me voted off on this site and I was trying my hand at UTR which worked out pretty well for me and JP congratulations my Renegade brother I'm glad to see you there sucks that I'm not up there with you but what can you do the jury that voted me off was a group of bitter bitches ok on to my question In my opinion there is no way to play a perfect game strategy wise since a lot of this game is based on luck so my question to you is at what point did something happen where for you plan A became unworkable and you needed to adapt? and how did you do so? Hey darkking! I loved having you as an ally in this game and we would have been in the finals if it wasn't for that twist! As for your question, I have to say it's that Final 5 twist again! I always have lots of plans, I had both Plan A AND Plan B, but when that twist happened, and after the IC, I had to do Plan C. My Plan A was to vote off Liz at Final 5 if she doesn't win Immunity by getting Lily/Mitch, who I offered a Final 4 deal when we merged, to vote with us. If Liz won Immunity, Plan B was to vote off either Lily or Mitch, depends on who Liz wanted to vote for. When the Final 5 twist happened (3 Immunities up for grabs, 2 people are vulnerable, Jury also will vote), I knew I'm in big trouble. Lily and Liz are huge challenge threats, and I assumed those 2 would get the first 2 Immunities, which would leave only one up for grabs for me, you and Mitch. Both youand I were never that strong in challenges in this game so I was dreading TC because I was sure one or both of us will be at the "bottom 2". So my first step to adapt was to guarantee myself Immunity, so that you and I won't be up against each other. Lily, Liz, and I won Immunity, like I predicted and feared. When you and Mitch were up for the vote, I knew I have to get Liz to keep you, and hoped in turn she would talk to her "friends" in the Jury to keep you as well, so I convinced her to vote for Mitch. Unfortunately, I couldn't convince the Jurors to keep you, and they voted you off. Going in to the Final 4 without a partner, I formed an alliance with Liz, who is a challenge threat and who has friends in the Jury who can help her (and me) in Revenge Ceremonies. I knew how this would benefit my game play so that's why I made that move. And not sure if she told the Jurors that I'm her ally now and would bring her to the finals, but it helped me, because the Jurors voted for me to have Immunity at Final 4, which not only saved me from getting voted off, but also gave me a chance to be in the Final 3, and in turn, in the Final 2. I always play ORGs like I am playing chess (which I loved playing). I always plan ahead, and I also consider twists when planning. I was a host before, so I have a rough idea of what twists the host can throw at us. But of course he's much more creative than me in that department and Chad outwitted me with one of his twists. Still, my plans helped me to adapt to all the situation he throws at us, and I made it here. Thanks for the questions, darkking! |

1. I align with friends in RGO games cause I dislike some people here and my friends also dislike those people. I didn't expect to win this game, and I don't really care that you screwed me over, just that you blatantly lied to me over and over again. And I don't bitch and whine in most games, cause most of the time, I'm the person trying to reason with the person bitching and whining  (Think Omarosa, Liz) Jake, just for that, Omarosa will have to make a brief appearance. OMAROSA: I was laughing so hard when you called JP a liar! He KNOWS about Earth, so therefore he KNOWN that you played the same way he did.  Anyway, I'm out. Especially since I'm not even in this game. lmao. Good Luck to both JP & Liz though.  |

This question essentially works for both of you...since I always seem to be taken out by the Liz/JP/Mitch/Jake alliance that seems to be existing in every game, I'd like to know why you guys always target me and never ask me to work with you? Because you are an active competitor, a challenge threat, and a good strategist. lol. But I would love to actually work with you/have a solid alliance with you in a game someday. Liz, you are actually a joy to play with, do you ever see yourself venturing outside your comfort alliance and playing with new people? Thank you for the compliment, Jason. I do occasionally venture out of my comfort alliance to play with new people. It has yet to be successful for me tho, since I'm always on the bottom level of those alliances, and unless I go on a challenge streak, won't get any further than 5th or 6th, so I tend to revert back to my friendship alliance. But I could try it again sometime, hopefully, with better results. lol Thanks, and sorry for the late response. |
