"buh" I want to be the first syllable I utter to you, just because it sounds really cool.

But seriously, hey Brad... for the record I don't think you're a baby. Baby just happened to be a word that starts with the letter "B" and I used alot of B's in my goofy voting reason. It was just a bunch of nonsense I said and not any kind of personal attack.

So for question #1... you'd be surprised how messy your vote off was. You said "don’t try to pull that crap with me" but I wasn't pulling anything. We had sent e-mails to several people asking if they'd vote with us. Not one of them wrote back to us and said they were on board. Rich and Jimmy wanted to throw some votes at you in hopes you wouldn't win that final 5 immunity. At that point I decided to vote for Nomi and if Merri did go at that TC, hopefully Jeremy would see that I didn't vote against you Brad and I could make a deal with him and be the last of my original alliance left standing. Yet I by voting for Nomi, I wouldn't have voted out Merri, so on the off chance someone voted with the group I could weasle my way back in with Jimmy Rich and Merri. As it turns out Dane voted against you but he never even e-mailed us saying he was going to do so. When the results of the first vote was read, Jimmy was like "oh shit we could've went after Nomi!" thinking someone on your side was the one that had voted against Nomi. Only then did I fess up and make up this story about "accidentally" sending in my vote against Nomi (when it had actually been intentional). Then Jimmy and Rich realized that if I hadn't voted for Brad, it meant someone else had. We weren't even sure it was Dane since he didn't bother to tell us he was going along with our plan... it could've been Maya or even Nomi since we had e-mailed them as well. Only later did we determine Dane voted with us when we talked to Nomi and Maya. At this point I knew since someone had joined up and voted for Brad, I had better vote against you in the tiebreaker round rather than completely flip on Rich Jimmy and Merri. Voting Merri out at that point would have been disastrous for me.

The greatest move I made in the game was voting out an unbeatable Jimmy. The worst was sharing my voting reasons from all the tribal councils.

On the real Survivor, you can't talk to the jury members so I really try not to do that unless I have a personal reason to. In Mole games I don't talk to executed players and ask how they answered their quiz because it just doesn't seem to be in the spirit of the game and making it realistic. Even if I did try to talk to you, once you were on the jury I thought you might find it fake of me to suddenly start IMing you. During the game, I think I IMed Nomi (or Jeremy) once to try to get your SN since you don't have it listed in your LJ userinfo but he never got back to me. I didn't put much effort into it honestly and if you want to hold that against me it's totally cool, but I do hope we get to chat after the game. (so feel free to reply with your SN)
