I'm sorry that you were the first to go :( You seemed like a nice person. We talked about Mother's Day, you're a good child to your mother I think :) You were the first person I sat next to. It was interesting when you asked me how I got people to claim that they liked me though :P I didn't manipulate them into thinking they liked me or anything, I feel like people on Casaya actually did like me that round and beyond. I spent time forming relationships with them. That was a little offputting, so I don't know if other people had a similar experience or not. I would consider trying again if you did have fun though :)

It broke my heart to send you out. I do agree friendships are more important than alliances, and I think that's what got me to the end; we weren't much of an alliance, more of a group of people that got pretty friendly with each other.

I was in a pretty bad spot. The problem was that I formed friendships with everyone on Timbira, and then realized I had to hurt someone. You were cool to talk to but I just didn't connect with you as much as everyone else, which meant I wasn't sure if you would still work with me farther down the road.

Jonny, I didn't get a chance to know you. I guess I shouldn't say anything since I don't really know the story, but I think it was kind of harsh of Jenn to campaign against you and then flake out the next round. J'Tia told me she was close to you before your departure, so it was probably hard for both of you to be up against each other.

I didn't really have much purpose in this game until you were evicted. Yeah, I guess I was kind of mad at Nicole for reasons that I'll explain later, but to see you kind of stick your neck out for me and blatantly tell me and others, "no, I want Jessie." On my short time on Casaya, you were the person I got the closest with, I feel. I really got to talk to you about a lot of things, what we'd do if we won the money, how smart our respective characters actually are...I was going to meet up with you later, fake merge, real merge, and figure something out.

Then Spencer and Nicole and Casaya kicked you out. I don't really know the details. It was still surprising, and I think they managed to take out someone who was a threat to win the game way early. Perhaps I did my best to avenge you, perhaps I just made up a story in my head that I was your knight...either way I wasn't going to stop until Spencer and Nicole were gone.

I think you really helped me stay alive the first round so I feel owe part of the extent of my journey here to what you did. So thank you :)

If you left because of a rl emergency, or you were too busy, I am sorry, and hope things are better.

You were an interesting dude, but it seemed like you got busy. The second person I sat next to. By this time I had my game figured out and I knew how I was going to get further. I felt like after my HoH I kept trying to get in, trying to get to know Hayden, and I just didn't. I don't know what happened, I think you had a lot to say, I think sometimes getting busy IRL even for a couple days can be a killer.

Jay! I feel like I just didn't get a chance to connect to you on Casaya as much as everyone else. Whether it was the whole BB vs. Survivor still being prevalent during round 1 or me being somewhat busy that weekend and unable to connect with everyone or what I'm sorry we didn't see more of each other (though who knows if we would have worked together or against each other :P) I don't really know. I don't know if you were trying to get rid of me round 1, or what.

I do feel that Casaya was right and that you would have shaped the game differently had you made it farther.

Posted Image
You had quite a unique personality. I didn't really get to know you all that well. You were a bit distant since you mostly talked game. Telling me I was taking cues from others instead of deciding things on my own I think was a little offputting to hear from you. I later did have reason to tell you the truth, that me nominating you had nothing to do with what Sindy wanted. You were the person I wanted to go at the time, so I bit my tongue until I realized we could work together.

In truth though, you were pretty influential in the early game. I was concerned about a Nicole/Spencer alliance, even afterwards I don't know if we would have worked together far into the game. Who knows what would have happened later, though.

Posted Image
I was sad to see you go. It was really nice to get to know you. I liked talking to you and I thought we could work together far into the game. I like the fact that you are new (or claim to be, I can't say with certainty).

I do feel bad though. I'm sorry I told you I was nominating you; I kind of felt stuck and it was my fault I got there. I felt bad afterwards when you seemed apologetic for getting mad at me. I was sad but it was my own damn fault. I made a mistake, I got attached to everyone, I made promises to too many people that I wasn't going to nominate them, I got scared about my place in the game, I kind of panicked. I didn't want to blindside you, and I never thought you were going home but I can't expect you to just believe me outright. That's the game; how do you know I didn't tell Arlie the same thing?

Since I had just come from Timbira I didn't really spend time talking to you during the fake merged tribe, and I regret that. I hope you play again :)

Posted Image
You were fun to play with, and funny :) I think it's always hard going in with a PR and sometimes it is harder to become more than your PR but it's clear you did. It's always sad to see anyone go but it's sometimes harder when they take themselves out.

I don't know where we would have stood since I just never really had an opportunity to really talk with you except on Exterminators and for like a day on the fake merge tribe. I was afraid my "leaked" nomination would come back to haunt me but you made me feel like it wouldn't, which was nice of you.

I also think that had the vote come out, it would have been really interesting. I don't know exactly how it would have gone but at that point in the game I wasn't about to lose Zach or R.C. if there was anything I could have done about it. You asked me about how the votes might have gone, and maybe you figured out by now or not. I didn't get a chance to reply.

I hope you are doing okay :) These games can be consuming and stressful and it's never fun to have to quit because you're too busy or you have stuff going on outside.

Posted Image
My self proclaimed nemesis :P It didn't bother me that you told me you were going to nominate some one else and then didn't because of conditional nominees. What bothered me was hearing multiple people say you were just going to take a step back and see where the chips fell...though you told me to keep fighting and that you might be inclined to help me.

Then again, during the fake merge, I think you and Sindy just didn't quite coordinate well on a time and a plan so when you finally told me what I was supposed to be doing it did not go over well for me :P

To be fair, I blew a bit of it out of proportion. You are a smart player and in another life things probably would have gone differently. I really think that...but fighting against you gave me something to do in this game. I did enjoy your PR for a bit but was also glad it went away :P You were fun to play this game with, though.

I really did enjoy getting to know you. You were very active :) I believed you would work with me and wasn't opposed to it.

It wasn't until we got past the fake merge that we could really talk about stuff, I felt. I mean, we were joking around in the begin about challenges with drug use in the early stages of the game. We kind of had this 3 paragraph rapport for a while. Sometimes it felt like we were talking about the same three topics for like 5 PMs. But then were were hitting some nice walls, especially towards the time we ended up sitting next to each other. You were the third.

You are funny, and clever, and you're a smooth talker. I think you were a threat.

We had some nice conversations though about injuries and aspirations to get onto the jury and get to the merge and such. I think that's what the game is about for me; shooting PMs back and forth about anything. So I am glad for that.

You were pretty fun to talk to, you had great spirit :) I hope you are enjoying your summer and doing fun things with it.

I'm sorry I was late to the posting the map of Jordan joke (grumble grumble I guess R.C. did it like a month before I did grumble). Thanks a lot too for posting a giant image in your PM to me, realizing it was giant, and still sending it anyway :P

It was great talking to you. The twist really did a number on you. I don't know for certain what would have happened if we could nominate the people from Casaya like intended.

Posted Image
With an S! Never a dull moment with you. I was surprised to hear of your decision to leave, when you talked to me it almost seemed like you were aware you were busy but were able to stick through it. But sometimes it's important to take care of the real life obligations. I feel like you were somewhat proud with how far you got (I'm sure you would have loved to go farther if you could, of course).

You seemed quite dangerous, you had alliances with everyone, you seemed to have decent control over this game for a bit. You were smart and active. You were a force, and you were a target.

Again in another life I might have bleed purple for Casaya, I might have been out earlier or with you or someone else in the end, who knows. I'm glad I had an opportunity to play with you.

Posted Image
You were nice and wonderful to talk to. It was great working with you when we did, especially in Timbira, and when you voted to save me later on. I do feel bad about what happened with you, since you helped me quite a few times during the game and I couldn't really do anything to help you without compromising myself.

I feel like we talked more when we were on Timbira, perhaps just the pace of the game slowed down as it went on.

Let's cook some rice some time :P

A tough competitor, for sure. Challenge win plus underdog cred plus any relationships you had with original Casaya members on the jury meant you might be hard to beat. And the fourth person I sat next to.

On Casaya, I really did enjoy talking to you. I opened up to you, and I always remembered that. It didn't feel good when we eliminating people from Casaya, especially because I had gotten a few days to connect with them.

Even though I think my drunk PM was pretty simple I'm glad I did it :P I hope it was entertaining. I don't think I said all that much though...I had fun talking to you.

Posted Image
Joe the Dragon Slayer :P I hope you enjoyed Cave Adventure!

You were very friendly and fun to talk to. I think that you were certainly having fun with this game, which is always a good way to approach it. Sometimes it can feel like work, or a chore.

I think that you are a good player and I respect the fact that you are willing to make big moves. Big moves are exciting. I'm not sorry they didn't work out for you :P but it's nice to see and was fun to fight against.

I hope you are finding fun and interesting things to do with your summer :)

I kind of knew we were going to end up aligned before we met and did my best to try to make sure we were. I have really enjoyed talking to you. I think you don't give yourself enough credit. You are smart. I don't think anyone who saw you play could sit here and think you weren't. You were shrewd and clever in your PMs.

I appreciate the nice things you said about me :) It was fun to have game talk interspersed with talk about movies and video games and what we did over the weekend. I never knew what kind of PM I would get when I saw your name, but I was always excited to get it. You were the fifth person I sat next to.

Your presence brought something unique to this game. I think you were pretty determined to win and had things gone differently you certainly could have.

Zach attack, beast nachos

I had great fun talking to you and joking around with you. I was always glad that you were on my side. From my point of view it was entertaining to watch you be Zach and be crazy and rile everyone up. You brought your own flavor to the game. Sometimes I wish you were a little nicer :P But it's true that you shook things up, and it was great to play with you.

I'm glad you trusted me and I always felt I could trust you. I was nervous because of your antics but eventually I realized you were just being you. In the end we talked more game than not but I still remember how you were the first person in this game that I talked to, that we spent those first few hours of the game sending PMs back and forth about working out :P I hope I was amusing back then. It certainly was fun :)

I think you personified Zach very well. Brash, a little wacky, a little rough to people but also someone who deep down has a really good heart, who shows it to those he cares about. I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention that anyone who ever performed in a challenge with you like I did a couple of times knows how smart you are.

Posted Image
I think we kind of talked less and less as the game went on, which is a shame, since you were the one I talked to the most in Timbira in the round I was having my little panic about the game going poorly for me and how I was going to be eliminated soon after :P Guess I'm dumb. But anyway I wanted to thank you for that. We had some nice walls going back and forth. You have a very grounding presence and I think you are quite wise.

I don't know what exactly happened for others not to see the Kat that I saw back then. Perhaps you got busy?

I'm glad you get to do a torchwalk, I know you were excited about it. I am too :D This is fun. You've helped make this a good experience for me, which was ultimately what I was looking for.

You kept me calm throughout the game, you made me feel safe and secure, you made me feel like you wanted to work with me, and I hope I was able to do the same for you. I like talking about puppies with you especially :) I hope you know what a joy you've been and I hope you look back at this and see how your hard work has paid off. Talk to you soon :)

I feel like overall I talked the most game and the most not game with you. I strategized with you, warned you, discussed moves with you, but I also got to know you for the friendly, fun person you are. You always seemed to be interested in what I was doing, how I was.

That first time I nominated you it was rough. I'm sure you felt the same way I did when Nicole nominated me so early in the game...you didn't want to go home. There's a whole page of PMs where we're discussing the nomination :P I really liked you but I hadn't quite formed a strong bond with you yet. I never thought you were going to go, but in the worst case I still had Kat, Derrick, Zach on my side. Though as I got to know you, you were able to consistently talk to me and you became one of my favorites in this game quickly. Maybe we'll share some flavored whiskey some time :D
