Hello. I am Ginger. Hear me roar. I will eat your soul. ;D

Well, just kidding sortakinda I guess, IDK I'm in a weird mood.

I'd like to first of all congratulate you all on reaching the Finals! Be proud of yourselves!

Now, onto my questions.

Aidan...
Congratulations on yet again making the Finals, that alone is an accomplishment and you should be proud of yourself for that.

Does that mean, however that you played a good game? That, my friend, is an emphatic NO. Just because you got to the Finals again does NOT mean you played a good game or are a good player. Neither front is true.

And while I am grateful for the fact that your flipping bought me a few weeks, please don't kid yourself and think that you pulled some masterful trickeration on Terri and I. The only reason we kept going to you and Leah is because you were the only two people to bite at all. In fact, if Michael hadn't been a COMPLETE dumbfuck the week he went, you would've gone home then. Literally minutes before we made our deal with you, I offered him a one-round deal to send you out and help him improve his endgame positioning, but he was dumb and stonewalled me, so I was forced to rely on you again. I knew full well you and Leah were in Tilly's pocket and would not turn on her. As your friend (We are friends from past games) I am telling you the brutal, honest, truth...You are NOT a good player. At all. Sorry.

My questions for you are as follows:

1. DO you think you're a good player? If you do, please prove it to me by using reasons you're good besides the fact that you made the Finals or "used" me.

2. I knew you were good friends with Tilly because you've played with and been hosted by him before. My question to you is do you ever play these games and not let your preexisting relationships dictate how you play?

3. If you wanted to win this game, why did you not vote out Tilly and go to the end with someone like Gale, who the jury hated, or Carlos, who did nothing? Do you love Tilly so much that you were willing to play this game for him to win?

Also, please do not miss my two group questions at the end of this post!

Leah...

I'm not gonna ask you much because I actually genuinely like you but I"m also not gonna waste your time: You're a sweet girl, but the odds of you getting my vote are slim to none, as you played worse than Aidan.

My question to you is simple:

1. Did you, at any point, think for just yourself and not as a pair for you and Aidan?

Also, please do not miss my two group questions at the end of this post!

Tilly...

As I told you on Skype, you had my vote if you got here. That is nearly true, but I hope you can respect that I always like to give all finalists at least an open chance to explain themselves as I am not ignorant to think I am all-knowing.

However, I DO have some qualms for voting for you. Yes, Tilly, you played an impeccable game. I will in no way, shape, or form deny this fact. HOWEVER, my qualm for voting for you, whether you like it or not, is as follows:

I do NOT think you would have done NEARLY as well in this game if you did not have a positive preexisting relationship with nearly EVERY Favorite from past games/games you've hosted. I think that your position of hegemony, which essentially lasted from the start to finish of this game, is more of a tribute to your preexisting connections than actual manipulation and game savvy.

So, my questions for you are...

1. IF you had come onto a Tribe of Favorites where you did not have such a large repertoire of preexisting relationships at your disposal, do you think you would have, or even could have, done as well in this game? Why or why not?

2. I am honestly curious...What factored into your alliance's decision to send ME home at Six over the Twins? They CLEARLY were stronger in challenges than I was.

My group questions are:
1. Rank the Jury from 1-11 in terms of strongest game played, and list who you think their best ally, and worst enemy in the game was.

2. This is my Skype picture:



I call it ~Dark Bubbles~ , and Tilly obviously knows why. But regardless, please tell me 3 things you like about the picture, and say one sentence about why Bubbles has flawless, perfect hair.

Thanks.

GINGER OUT~

I do NOT think you would have done NEARLY as well in this game if you did not have a positive preexisting relationship with nearly EVERY Favorite from past games/games you've hosted. I think that your position of hegemony, which essentially lasted from the start to finish of this game, is more of a tribute to your preexisting connections than actual manipulation and game savvy.

Um. I respect your opinion, but the simple fact is...you're wrong. The only Fave I had a positive pre-existing relationship with was Leah (who I met in season 12) and the only one I socialize with outside of ORGs is Gale (even then, it's rare). I had never met Nora or Addie before this game. I only know Carlos & Evan from hosting them (which does not make one insta-friends) and quite literally EVERYONE ELSE I've been enemies against in every ORG we may have ever been in together and haven't spoken to since the last game where we were indeed enemies (except in Michael's case; I've hosted him a couple times).

Michael & I were the legendary rivals of season 2 (only ever played in season 2 with as far as I know), Laurie & I never get along in this series (only ever played in season 1 & 7 with; never hosted), Sidney & I were at each other's throats in season 7 (only ever played in season 7 with; never hosted), Jill and I didn't get along in season 12 (only ever played in season 12 with; never hosted), Gale & I have ALWAYS been opposing sides in games and Aidan's an ass every time I see him (only ever played in seasons 1 and 7 with as far as I know).

If you honestly think I would not have done as well, then you're seriously underestimating me.

So, my questions for you are...

1. IF you had come onto a Tribe of Favorites where you did not have such a large repertoire of preexisting relationships at your disposal, do you think you would have, or even could have, done as well in this game? Why or why not?

As I said, I didn't have a pre-existing repertoire with anyone but Leah and Gale at best. Pit me with all strangers, I could still do as well. I don't rely on friendships to do well in a game. I rely on strategy and my history speaks for itself.

2. I am honestly curious...What factored into your alliance's decision to send ME home at Six over the Twins? They CLEARLY were stronger in challenges than I was.

It was simple. You were more liked by the Juror than the Twins. If a Fan was to make finale...there was no question in my mind it had to be the Twins, not you.

I'll get to the group questions after a while. Screen is starting to hurt my eyes. xD Hope you understand!

[J-Tilly]

1. Rank the Jury from 1-11 in terms of strongest game played, and list who you think their best ally, and worst enemy in the game was.

I'm not really sure anyone had an "enemy", seeing as the majority of the game was sheer FvF...so if I feel they didn't have any stand out enemy, I'll just put "Fans" or "Favs". Hope that's ok.
1) Gale...A:Me...E:Aidan
2) Alice...A:Clay...E:Favs
3) Ralph...A:Tommy...E:Favs
4) Tommy...A:Ralph...E:Aidan
5) Sidney...A:Gale...E:Twins
6) Scotty...A:Nora...E:Favs
7) Nora...A:Scotty...E:Uh. Fans then Favs. xD
8) Terri...A:Tina...E:Me
9) Tina...A:Terri...E:Me
10) Michael...A:Sidney...E:Fans
11) Carlos...A:Gale...E:Fans

2. I call it ~Dark Bubbles~ , and Tilly obviously knows why. But regardless, please tell me 3 things you like about the picture, and say one sentence about why Bubbles has flawless, perfect hair.

1) I love the asymmetrical outfit. It's a nice design on her.
2) The curled hair adds some extra flare to the already amazing Bubbles. <3
3) She looks like she just stepped outside a kickass Japanese film. Hehe.
P.S. No amount of scissors shall ever fuck with those locks again!!

Thank baby

Aidan...

At all. Sorry.

its okay, its your opinion, but I didn bite, I did the moves because I need it not because I want to help you win more weeks I did because I wanted to put me in the final and it worked.

ps: who are you?

1. DO you think you're a good player? If you do, please prove it to me by using reasons you're good besides the fact that you made the Finals or "used" me.

I think I´m a good player but I´m honest too and I know that I didnt play with all my capacity here but I did moves and think about it If I didnt had to that this would be a very boring season with a F7 favorites and a Tilly/Sidney/Gale finale, so at least I had the eyes to see that I´m not in a good position and did what I can to turn that around, and I never said that I use you, in fact we help each other nobody used anyone.

2. I knew you were good friends with Tilly because you've played with and been hosted by him before. My question to you is do you ever play these games and not let your preexisting relationships dictate how you play?

I play several games with Tilly and in fact I turn against her every since game, so this time I wanted to show her that I could be trusted, so no its not every game that I let my relationships dictate how I play or I would stay allie with Tilly every game but this was the first one that we stayed, but I´m also a emotional player and thats what hurt me in the game.

3. If you wanted to win this game, why did you not vote out Tilly and go to the end with someone like Gale, who the jury hated, or Carlos, who did nothing? Do you love Tilly so much that you were willing to play this game for him to win?

to be honest I think even if the F3 was Aidan/Gale/Leah or Carlos or even Laurie people would be mad at me because of the moves that I made so I knew it that my chances to win was slim, and yes I know that at least I would have bigger chances against them but since I would have to take a risk I decide that If i donpt win I want to see Tilly winning, once again is my emotional part controlling me.


My group questions are:

1. Rank the Jury from 1-11 in terms of strongest game played, and list who you think their best ally, and worst enemy in the game was.

1- Alice: (she was strategic, good at challenges and would win if get here) ally: Scott enemy: Gale?
2- Ralph: ( I had the chance to talk strategy with him and I know how good he is) ally: Tommy? enemy: twins?
3- Twins:( had an HII knew it how to use it in her favor but Tina fight a lot and thats hurt them) ally: each other and Alice in the end game enemys: almost everyone in the cast lol
4- Sidney( I great player thats why I wanted her out for so long) ally: Tilly/Gale/Mike enemy: of course it was me
5- Gale( she had a great game what hurt her is this crazy style of play) ally: Tilly/Sidney and enemy: the fans in general
6- Mike- started quiet, improved his game but in the end he was quiet again) ally: Sidney and enemy: me after I vote her off
7- Nora (all the fav wanted her out), best ally: I think was me or addie and enemes no one
8- Carlos ( he was inactive), ally: Gale and enemy: Leah and myself
9- Scotty (same as Tommy), I dont think he get enemies, and you( alice) his best ally
10- Tommy, (he leaves too earlier), I think prob I was he´s enemy and Ralph his friend

2. This is my Skype picture:



I call it ~Dark Bubbles~ , and Tilly obviously knows why. But regardless, please tell me 3 things you like about the picture, and say one sentence about why Bubbles has flawless, perfect hair.

I like this pic because I love bubbles, she´s my favorite power puff girl, she´s sweet and lovable. I love the style of bublee in this, he are use to see her in the same cloths so its good to see some changes.

I think I´m a good player but I´m honest too and I know that I didnt play with all my capacity here but I did moves and think about it If I didnt had to that this would be a very boring season with a F7 favorites and a Tilly/Sidney/Gale finale, so at least I had the eyes to see that I´m not in a good position and did what I can to turn that around, and I never said that I use you, in fact we help each other nobody used anyone.

Thinking the finale would've been Me/Sid/Gale is an assumption and not fact. Sidney brought her fate on herself by doing the things she did, but the Michael thing was sheer greed and foolishness. You didn't improve your standings in that vote in the slightest. All that did was nearly hand Twins finale. I understand you want to show you made moves and played the game, but sorry...I just don't feel your moves actually HELPED you. Fact is, your move against Sid almost COST you this game...and the only reason you're here is because Carlos turned on the Favs when he did and my ass saving your ass.

[Nora Montgomery]

addie and I are actually enemies, aidan

[Leah]

Hello Alice! I genuinely like you too and you are a good guy, but I don’t think I played a bad game.

1. Did you, at any point, think for just yourself and not as a pair for you and Aidan?

Of course! When Jill left, Aidan don’t want her out. In the beginning Aidan wanted to stay with our season 9 alliance, but I convince him that would be better for us if we do a new alliance. I think you guys have to see that, we can played together, but we are different people, I like some people and him others.

1. Rank the Jury from 1-11 in terms of strongest game played, and list who you think their best ally, and worst enemy in the game was.

1- Ralph
2- Sidney
3- Alice
4- Gale
5- Tommy
6- Mike
7- Scott
8- Tina
9- Terri
10- Nora
11- Carlos

2 - What I like most is the fact that she seems an anime (<333), she's wearing black / white, like the yin / yang (I love Japanese culture) and she's using all her sexy apeal, being a strong woman and decided.

She has amazing hair, because it is bright and smooth.
