Welcome Rocky...
You were fairly quiet up until the final 7 what changed?
Who are you cheering for?
Who are you cheering against?
Please leave a bootlist in your confessional for the FTC
1) most likely to vote for in the finals to 4) least likely to vote for in the finals

You were fairly quiet up until the final 7 what changed?I was fairly quiet cause I don't really like talking to people, guy. Plus, I was already making a threat of myself in the challenges. No need to add to that by being a social threat. Who are you cheering for?I'm cheering for you to realize you made a mistake on the last challenge or something. But seriously I don't know or care about any of them. But Brett DID step up and beat me which isn't easy to do. So I'll say him. Who are you cheering against?Erik. He knows he will be booted 4th or 3rd and doesn't care. He knew that someone was going to throw a vote on him last round in case I played the idol but he didn't care. Why the funk did he bother to play this game?

I gotta say something to Steph and BJ here. I'm reading your posts in here and the two of you are acting like I am the reason you are here. This is incorrect. YOU TWO are not only the reason YOU got voted out, but the reason I got voted out as well. And I will tell you why... When we first merged I thought it was pretty obvious what we needed to do in that challenge with all the powers. Even the Tenrec people knew what needed to be done. Win as many of the double votes and null votes as you can. BJ unfortunately let his own greed ruin it for us. It was his not taking the double vote and vote nullifier that put us at a huge disadvantage that round. This is fact, not opinion. But... we still had a chance that round. Steph I don't know why you would think I betrayed you when you were voted out. I TOLD YOU TO USE THE IDOL! Remember? I told you the vote was either going to be me or you. You never told me you had the idol but I'm not stupid. Since the vote was going to be between you or I, I told you to use it and I would take the risk of being voted out. Then we both could have held onto our powers. But in the end neither of you ever gave Rocky any credit. Neither of you would listen to me and so both of you got voted out. It's really that simple guys. BJ, the round you got voted out there was nothing I could do for you. You had screwed us over by taking immunity the round before. So when it came time to vote, I knew the Tenrecs + Sherea would split the vote in case you had the idol. And I was worried they would split it between me and you. So I had no choice but to vote for you. I hope you understand that. It's not that I wanted you out, I just felt one of us was going to go and it sure as hell wasn't going to be me. Once you two were gone all I had left was winning immunity. I tried talking to Todd the round he left. I thought me and Todd might be able to get a 3rd person to force a tie. But Todd replied and said not to bother, he simply doesn't care. Nice. How the hell am I supposed to work with that? lol Lame. Then the next round I try and talk to Erik and it's the same thing. The reason why Rodger, Brett and Sherea will be in the F3 is because Burton, Todd and Erik simply didn't give a crap. It's people like those 3 that basically ruin the game for everyone else. But even all that being said. I still had a very slight chance of surviving that last round. In all of my rants and nonesense, I did keep the fear in Rodger and the gang about the idol. I think my post about Steph being voted out with it only made them think I had it even more. So last round I made sure to mention me being in the F4 and that I was voting for Sherea. I figured Sherea will make sure there is at least 1 vote on Erik in case I use an idol. But I was really hoping they would split the votes 2 on me and 2 on Erik thinking I would vote Sherea or Rodger. Then after the tie they could all just vote out Erik instead. If they had done that then my vote woulda been the 3rd on Erik sending him home instead of me. Close but no cigar, guy.

Rocky I ended up liking you too...
But in response to what u said...I assure you 100% I didn't mean to win the challenge....I misread the thing as I told u before, you can ask Carlos cuz I even told him...I never knew over 60 is all or nothin....I just wanted to get to 60 and get everything but i never once realized it was all or nothing then, i figured I had the lowest time...until AFTER then when I read it back I was like ahhh fuck, but it was too late then.
But honestly when I got voted out it was by 2 votes and if I could've gotten your vote and maybe 1 other mighta been different....Todd is a complete waste imo. Just sayin.
You played a good game Rock.

hey rocky, the thing is, i came really close to playing the idol, but i thought it would help us further down the line, and yes, US, not me, because u, burton, me and bj was my planned f4, and because i stupidly trusted everyone, I thought everyone who said they were voting against rodger was actually going to do so. But I have to ask, did u vote Rodger or me and who did u use ur nullifier on?

But I have to ask, did u vote Rodger or me and who did u use ur nullifier on? I did what I said I was gonna do. I voted Roger and used my nullifier on Rodger. If I remember properly your's and BJ's votes were cancelled so Rodger ended up with 4. 1 from you, 1 from Burton and 2 from me. Sherea used her 2 votes on you. I know you wanted to hold onto your idol but I thought at the time it would be better if you used your idol and we held onto our powers. That way if someone tried to screw us over we would still be able to regain the numbers because we would have our double votes and vote nullifiers the next round. I knew the idol was found very quickly and there was no way it was one of the Tenrecs since they had no clues to work with. At first I thought it was Dolly cause I got the feeling that she was lying to me about her guesses. After she got voted out I knew she didnt have it so I figured you must have found it. I actually thought you and Dolly were a lot closer than either of you wanted me to know. I figured maybe Dolly knew you had the idol and thats why she was lying to me about her guesses. What's funny is even if you had survived that vote and our Tribe was able to take out the Tenrecs, I STILL think I would have had to win immunity to survive. I had no choice but to work with you and BJ but I felt like BJ was going to come after me as soon as we voted out a couple of the Tenrecs. lol

So what do you guys think about the tie vote? Who do you think voted with who and why?
I figure it was probably Rodger and Sherea vs Brett and Erik. What I don't understand is why Brett didn't vote with me last round. There is no way in hell Erik is going to beat Sherea in a tie-break challenge. If he wanted to keep Erik he needed my vote to do so.
I would have been more than willing to make a deal with Brett. I would have voted with him and Erik and if I won final immunity, I would have agreed to bring Brett to the finals. Just doesn't make any sense to me why they chose to go the tie-break route. Then again, nothing anybody did in this game made any sense to me. lol
