I did the one thing I swore I would never do in this game. Trusted people. I trusted Zack, Erik, and Kirin would not vote me out, at least not at this juncture in the game, and I got burned. I’ll tell myself that there’s nothing else I could have done to prevent this, which is mostly true. When this is played back in my mind I hope it doesn’t look like they got me to vote out my entire alliance and then voted me over. Because that’s not what it was. This was me toeing the line getting ready to strike, but the problem was that they struck before I did.
Looking back, I should have offered to work with Caydie and Britt. I should have been sure from all sides what was going on. I shouldn’t have voted out Kerri, I should have told Ginny what was going on when it was her time to be voted out, I should have done all those things. Hindsight’s 20/20 though.
I don’t regret anything I did or didn’t do. I had a good time playing and I think I gave it everything I had. I hope people genuinely liked me for who I was, not for how I was playing the game.
Ginny, Hooker, Kerri, I’m sorry for voting you out. I like to tell myself I had no other choice, and that’s probably true. But regardless, I really enjoyed playing with all of you, and you’re largely the reason I got so into this game. I wanted to win it for us.
Erik and Zack, you’re spineless. I respected you as great players, but now I see that you’re just sheep. Kirin, I was the one that defended you when everyone called you a snake. I was wrong. Caydie and Britt, we should have gotten close again after the merge. After the way you were acting though, calling yourselves Chavins, saying you were with Zack all the way, how was I supposed to trust you. We should’ve taken Zack out right now … when we had the numbers. The keep it simple strategy flew over my head and I overcomplicated things. I’m guilty of playing the game too hard, and that proves to be my ultimate downfall. I guess there are worse things that have brought people down in the game.
The only person I’ll keep in touch with after this is over is Eddie. I’ll buy ya a 30 rack if you win this thing, buddy. I’ll buy you drink after this is all over regardless of what happens. Work with Caydie and Britt … bring this home for the original Chicos, for MattyFlav and the Frat … bring it home for New York.
