I agree. Tough talk is cool, but it probably wont get you a win...

No crying, just pointing out the facts. The tiebreaker tainited the rest of the game and the eventual outcome, there's no denying that.

Now, you might have beaten me in a skill based tie breaker, but we'll never know.

Good thing you only have one vote. I guess we'll see what happens. I've already won, though. I played as well as I could play.

You couldn't control Shake That when you were in the game, are you suggesting you control them on the jury?

JORR getting Russell-level hate. Hope he doesn't suffer the same fate.

I thought it sucked when I was let down by some people on my team and was voted out but I got over it pretty quickly.

Do you think the jury will be voting for the winner based upon how skillfully he played the game?

No dum dum. They'll vote for who they like more.

Except me.

That's what I think too. Every jury member who has alluded to what his vote might be has suggested it will be based on grinding an axe with those he feels did him wrong, supporting a former teammate, or just picking the guy he doesn't hate as much- anything but basing that vote on how skillfully someone played the game. But getting those votes is a skill. If I don't get enough of them, I'm not going to tell you I played better than the guy who did. Part of playing the game skillfully is to make sure enough people like you that you don't get eliminated and then to make sure that those you helped eliminate don't hate you so much they won't vote for you. It's a tough thing to do.

It's not my nature to kiss ass for votes. I'd guess most of you have made up your minds anyway. I can make a great case as to why I should win. I'm sure Hank an Hawg can make great cases for themselves as well. If Boyd makes the top three by winning immunity the last two times, he deserves to win. Go ahead and vote for him.

A vote for Shakes is a vote against the tie breaker! Pass the word!

I have a question shakes.

You seem to think you only lost because of the tiebreaker. However, you knew what the tiebreaker was prior to the votes being cast. Why did you employ a strategy that was vulnerable to losing the tiebreaker?

Is it just simpler to blame the tiebreaker for your loss rather than blame yourself for being in a position where you didn't have a majority of the votes?

Do you even know what the tie breaker was Mr. johnny come lately?

_________________

I believe it was whoever voted first, but it was randomized because he allowed submissions before the official results and two or more people could have had the exact same time.

That means the only way to survive was to completely avoid a tie. You were voted out because you failed to do so.

Who the hell cares about this?

_________________

In this particular case, I don't believe there was any need for the randomization. One alliance had its ducks in a row and was ready to make the earliest vote without hesitation. I guess we'll find out if I'm right after the game. If I really thought there was any chance of losing that tiebreaker, I wouldn't have allowed that situation to occur. There were other ways to go about things, but each one had its own set of complications. I was planning on that 4-4 tie before the vote that eliminated IMU. You remember that vote, right shakes? The one where you and one other steadfast Shake That compatriot voted against IMU knowing it would look like Hank and I did.

lol, yeah that makes a lot of sense. Why would I or anyone in Shake That vote against IMU and weaken our alliance?

_________________

I don't know, but at least one of you did. We'll find out who soon enough, I guess.

I already illustrated how that didn't happen.

_________________

Based on a faulty premise. Hank did NOT vote for IMU. That's a fact.

More people voted for Terry's Peeps than IMU in that vote, this is a fact. The only reason Peeps stayed in the game was because you gave him the immunity idol. Stop trying to create all this confusion because you double crossed shake that.

_________________

I double-crossed Shake That? You mean the guys that tried and failed to vote me out? It is to laugh. I can add the votes just fine. Maybe you voted for IMU.

JORR orchestrated the ouster of one of the stronger players in the game. Seems pretty smart to me.

_________________

What was my chance at winning? Letting Shake That cakewalk three guys into the final three? If Boyd fails to earn immunity, I won. You can pick which member of my crew gets the prizes.

My crew.

Easy Laurence.
