Hey y'all.

I don't have any questions. James, do you remember your nomination speech when you nominated me? I surely do! And it was months ago.

You said something (very pretentiously might I add) that you ~are in the interesting position where you get to choose the successor of another FvF game~

I was very sad when I heard that, because you didn't choose me! But good for Rachel because you chose her.

Rachel, I really hope you get 3 more votes, because you have mine. However, I would like to know why you sounded like such a cunt in your goodbye message to me. Like do you think I'm that much of a moron that I wouldn't know I was being evicted/wouldn't talk to Porsche, or were you just praying you could be involved in yet another blindside for the season? I agree with Dominic that you need to own your moves, but not everything needs to be a vicious blindside either.

My thought process for this stems from the fact I wasn't really sure Porsche was going to tell you she was voting you out. At the time I wrote my goodbye message, I asked Porsche if she had talked to you and she said she hadn't. The next day, about four/five hours before the votes were due, I asked again, and she still hadn't. At that point, a part of me wondered if she was going to tell you at all. By the time she did tell you she was voting you out, I was in class and didn't think to change the goodbye. (And even still I could tell she was really struggling with telling you)

I guess in hindsight I do remember her saying she had PMs from you, (she told me this after I had already written my goodbye) that she was skirting around, so I should have known that you had an inkling you were in trouble when she didn't respond to them immediately, but I knew that you and Porsche were so tight. I didn't know if you'd actually believe Porsche was voting you out unless she told you.

It wasn't my intention to come off as a cunt. The main purpose of the goodbye was actually to outline how far I wanted to work with you in the game prior to our falling out, not to emphasize that as a blindside. The blindside part was written in passing, and at the time I wrote it, I don't think you were aware how much trouble you were in, hence why I even used the word blindside in the message.


I hope that clears it up, but if you have a follow up for it go right ahead. I also can't thank you enough for your vote. I'm surprised, but incredibly grateful. Thank you for the question Elissa!
