Brianna's ~really down to earth~ Questions.

[Brianna Varela]

Hi. So let me first say I'm not going to go into a tantrum about how you guys are sexist because:
A. it's not your fault the season was gendre divided hence making "sexist" alliances easier to form
B. it's not your fault the girls were tards and didn't realize the boys were going to stick together.

Anyways, bla bla bla congrats and all of that. As we all know In played this game for myself to show my friends back at home that you can win this game just by being pretty and you don't need any skills what-so-ever, sadly I didn't count there would be tards in the cast that would get jealous and vote me out. Normally I would vote for the best looking one but tbh I don't find any of you attractive so I actually have to ask questions.

Question 1: Write an essay about myself [at least two paragraphs], say your opinion of me, how you think I played, why I deserved to win, my personality, how down to earth I am, or anything you want. Just make it about me

Question 2: Explain to me why voting me out was such a huge mistake and why the people who did it are stupid asses and handed you guys the game. Or if you don't agree explain to me how my vote out affect or didn't affect the way the game turned out.

Question 3: Tell me what, if any, role did I have in your game and how me making it as far or not as far as I did [depending on the way you view it] affected your game.

Question 4: I will give you a list of 10 words, they are all mean. I want you to give ONE word to each juror and say why that word fits with them. You may NOT say anything nice about any of the jurors or try to make an excuse as to why you chose said word, doing this would make you lose my vote. If you need more explanation about this, let me know.
Words: retarded, bipolar, moronic, delusional, brainless, insipid [refering to personality], heartless, clusterfucktard, cunt [in the whole extent], ambiguous.

That would be all.

I'm gonna answer the first 3 questions in my essay. It may sound like I'm sucking up, but I do mean what I say, otherwise I wouldn't say it, haha

Brianna, the Goddess of Spratly Islands

There were a lot of memorable people in this game, like Sydney the fake-Goddess, Mick the sexiest of the bunch and myself, the self-proclaimed nice guy. But none measure up to the divine Brianna. Brianna brought a touch of beauty to the game, in such a way that I don't think some of the other women did. She was fierce, but always stood her ground and, in my opinion, was classy while doing so. This may lose me votes from others, but I have to say that Brianna was my favorite woman in Spratly.

Brianna to me may not have been the Brianna I saw. She made me laugh, she was fun and easy to talk to and is very smart. Brianna was never afraid to say what was on her mind and I admire that. Some may not have agreed with some of the things Brianna said (even myself sometimes) but she always stuck to her guns, and I admire and like her for it.

In regards to the game, we all knew that Brianna was a fierce player. She was extremely social and if you got to know her, very likeable. Some of the things she said on the board, I think, don't really accurately represent Brianna. Her main downfall was she was a strong personality and I think that's what cost her the game. Who knows what will happen in future games?

I really connected with you, and I really didn't want to see you go. Whether or not the feeling was mutual, I had wanted you to make it farther than you did. Unfortunately, it seemed that taking you out was the best way for me to continue so I had to do it. Because the ladies took you out, it slowly gave us the numbers. We were in the minority and we had to do whatever it took to get ourselves to the finals and you being a VERY strong player had to go. You could have easily stopped us, and unfortunately that was your downfall. It was difficult for me to vote for you, but sometimes you have to make some hard choices.

You definitely played a role in getting me farther because I don't think a lot of the women listened to you. If you had stayed in the game, I highly doubt that I would have, no matter how much we connected. It's not completely you that got me to where I am, but your vote was a definite turning point.


I hope that answers all 3 of the questions. The fourth one will be made in a separate post. If you need anything else, let me know

[Michael Skupin]

Well, this definitely goes against my nice guy mentality, but I will answer it.

For the record, I don't believe in using "retard" as a negative against someone so I will not be using it. If that costs me your vote, that's fine but I will not compromise that part of me.

Bipolar- Mick.
Moronic- Brady.
Delusional- Eliza.
Brainless- Brady.
Insipid- Julie.
Heartless- Brianna.
Clusterfucktard (which is an amazing word)- Heidi
Cunt- Brianna.
Ambiguous- Mick or Brady.

Now, I would never use any of these words to describe jurors or anyone else if I wasn't asked to, so don't take everything too personally.

Thanks for your questions Brianna!

HAHA love the questions Bri <33

[Lex van den Berghe]

Question 1: Write an essay about myself [at least two paragraphs], say your opinion of me, how you think I played, why I deserved to win, my personality, how down to earth I am, or anything you want. Just make it about me

Brianna, I'll focus on the positives here because you want me to. There might not even be any negatives. You started this game off with a spark during the checkins and pre-game chatter. I came in late as a replacement for the old inactive Lex, but as soon as I got here I knew who the Queen Bitch was and that was you. Everyone knew your name, and most of them were annoyed by you. I can happily say that I was entertained.
You were a 'mystery' to me for the majority of the game, having not really been on a tribe with you until just before the merge. When I finally got the chance to talk to you, you were pleasantly divine and easy to connect with. My favorite memory of you in the game is when you lied to me about what color you had in that one IC where we had to guess who had each color. I lied to you too, and we shared a funny and warm conversation the next day about how we were both liars. That made my day that day, it put a shitlicking grin on my ugly face that a beautiful goddess such as yourself would be willing to conversate with someone such as myself.

Question 2: Explain to me why voting me out was such a huge mistake and why the people who did it are stupid asses and handed you guys the game. Or if you don't agree explain to me how my vote out affect or didn't affect the way the game turned out.

For me, voting you out wasn't that big of a deal because it helped my alliance gain numbers and we were able to control much of the game from that point on. The girls who were so willing to go along with it, however, made a big mistake and paid the price for it soon afterwards. You entertained me and I honestly probably would've considered talking my alliance into keeping you if the other girls or even you had come to me with an alternative plan. I think they were confident that the men would be non-sexist and we would let one or more of them make the finals, and they wanted you gone because they feared facing you on the jury. Little did they know you would be on the jury anyway, and here you are...not so scary.

Question 3: Tell me what, if any, role did I have in your game and how me making it as far or not as far as I did [depending on the way you view it] affected your game.

You didn't have a huge role in my game because we were barely together in the game for more than like two rounds. When I wasn't on a tribe with you, you did keep me entertained and I kept my eyes on you because I figured you would be an important player to watch. You making it as far as you did affected my game because it split the women up.

Question 4: I will give you a list of 10 words, they are all mean. I want you to give ONE word to each juror and say why that word fits with them. You may NOT say anything nice about any of the jurors or try to make an excuse as to why you chose said word, doing this would make you lose my vote. If you need more explanation about this, let me know.

Unlike Michael, I hope everyone takes this as personally as possible. But I'm sure everyone has something equally nasty to say about me. I've already been called an asshole by like half the jury, so who cares. That's the point, right? You gave 10 words so I'm just going to extend this to the finalists as well to make it a Perfect 10 to honor you.

Delusional - Cecelia. I'm not sure if she knew about me/Peter/Mike being on an original tribe together or what. If she did, she didn't do anything about it.
Insipid - Brady. Maybe our personalities clashed but I couldn't manage more than a few words back and forth with him.
Moronic - Julie. I think she woke up about two weeks too late in this game.
Brainless - Michael. He flew three miles under the radar and thinks he can win the game being nice.
Heartless - Me. I'm a total asshole and this section of your question proves it.
Clusterfucktard - Eliza. She was effing crazy in this game. Kept me entertained. I'm not really sure if she ever knew what her strategy was.
Cunt - Brianna. If you keep this up you'll be looking at a picture of yourself beside this word in the dictionary.
Ambiguous - Heidi. One round we were on the same page, the next round she votes for me, the round after that she wants us on the same page again.
Retarded - Peter. PMing sucks.
Bipolar - Mick. No idea if this guy even knew which side he was on.

Question #1

Brianna, you came into this game full force. I remember your first post in the pre-game chat & thinking to myself " she's either going to go far or people will hate her & vote her out quick." Needless to say you made it far. We worked together on the boat challenge & it was then that I got a better feel for who you are. You come across as a very kind person & the fact that you can except the fact that the game was basically set up to form gender alliances shows that you are a lot smarter than you appeared to be in the pre- game chats.

I truly believe that had you made it to the finals that you would have won this game.Your biigest flaw was that everyone knew what a threat you were socially & that was what ultimately led to you being voted out when you did.

Question #2 & 3

I came real close to aligning with you & Heidi, but knew that I would be 4th at best if I aligned with you. For that reason voting you out was a good move. Voting you out broke up an alliance that benefitted lex, myself & Mike. Word was that you were aligned with Cece & by voting you out that caused Cece to align with us & Mick. That put together a 5 person voting block that basically controlled the vote for the rest of the game. So even though you didn't know at the time you getting voted out was probably the biggest move in the game that
helped us get here.


Question #4

Usually I don't insult people unless they start with me. Though there is not 1 word here that I would call any of the Jurors I'm sure Julie would call me all these names.

So I will call one juror a name

Julie CUNT

The rest I'm just listing based on the order they were voted out.

Retarded - Brianna
Bipolar -Brady
Moronic - Heidi
Delusional - Eliza
Brainless - Cece

Sorry if that wasn't what you wanted, but like I said I don't insult people unless provoked.

I actually did thats why i voted for you the round Heidi went. But Mick didn't jump over if he did you would have been voted out! And the other rounds I didn't have enough votes to get you guys out so yeah!

OMG idk if that was meant to be mean but that made me laugh really hard

[Brianna Varela]

Thanks everyone, I certainly love the praise and you all did a good job in the final question as well. I would love to hear explanations as to why each person got what from Mike and Peter, but if they don't feel like it that's also fine. I find myself pleased.~*

[Michael Skupin]

Bipolar- Mick. One day he was with the women and then all of a sudden he wasn't. It was weird.
Moronic- Brady. You should have stuck with the orignal Mariveles, you would have made it farther.
Delusional- Eliza. You came to me and we hadn't really talked since pre-merge so I thought it was a bit ...delusional... of you to think I'd vote another way. Wow, that was bad grammar.
Brainless- Brady. Didn't do much, just followed.
Insipid- Julie. Based on the conversations we had... well, there weren't really any. It's hard to get to know someone you haven't talked to very much.
Heartless- Brianna. You don't care about offending people and we both know it.
Clusterfucktard (which is an amazing word)- Heidi. This game wasn't your best. You weren't as strong as you normally are.
Cunt- Brianna. You asked me this question.
Ambiguous- Mick or Brady. I like Mick and we talked about the game a lot but I never got to know him. As for Brady, at least everyone was somewhat fierce. Brady was just kind of there...

[Peter Harkey]

The rest I'm just listing based on the order they were voted out.

Retarded - Brianna
Bipolar -Brady
Moronic - Heidi
Delusional - Eliza
Brainless - Cece

There was no reason that I assigned those insults to a particular person. Like i said I listed your insults in order & posted them next to the people in the order that they were voted off.

[Brianna Varela]

Alright, thanks both. May the best person win.~*
