Hello final 2! Congratulations 
Similar to Dom, I have gone through all possible final 2 scenarios in my head and had more than enough time to think about who I'd vote for. When I was first evicted, I had a clearer image as to what I'd do, but as the famous saying goes: "Time heals all wounds." My vote is up in the air.
Unlike Dom, I did not have a close relationship with either of you prior to playing this game. I have no reason to be offended on a personal level because there wasn't one prior to this game. This game took an unusually long time, so I did get to know you guys throughout it, so I can't say I wasn't upset with your decisions. I'm not that ~cool.
James, I'd like to say you were right and that it was a phenomenal decision to turn around and side with Porsche and Rachel. It probably was, but you are wrong for assuming things you can't possibly know. Your response to Dom is flawed because as much as you think I didn't care about Dom in the game, I actually cared VERY much for him. He was one of my closest allies. Truthfully, you were very shady and if you were in my shoes, you would understand why I was so weary and careful of you. If you had to deal with your behaviour in this game like everyone else had to, you wouldn't say half the things you said in your opening statement, especially about Elissa and I. Honestly, in my mind we were still aligned when you came back into the game, but I quickly realized that it wasn't going to be like before because I had new relationships and allies in the game... plus, you didn't really show me much trust which is a huge red flag in my book. If you don't trust me, then how can I trust you?
You were wrong about something else. I did care about you in the game and although I did have other priorities, you were my top 1 when Elissa was evicted. Nonetheless, you got to f2 without me so who cares I guess.
Questions!
1. Name the top 3 decisions you made in this game.
2. Why do you think it was smart to take Rachel over Porsche to F2?
3. How do you think the game would have played out had I nominated Rachel as replacement instead of Andrew? [use logical reasoning from how we placed in the competitions and your own logical assumptions]
Rachel, I have to agree with a lot of what Dom said to you as well. I did not appreciate that PM you sent me the week I was voted out. It didn't even hurt me on a personal level, it just annoyed the hell out of me because it showed me that you thought I was a complete idiot and there is nothing I hate more. I hate the fact that James came to you with a vet alliance and you lied about a newbie alliance as the reason for nominating me. It was so transparent and in turn, extremely nauseating. Not really sure why you thought that was smart on any level. I mean, you had the strongest competitive game so I won't even buy the excuse of "I was protecting myself."
Personally, I believe your strength in competitions was a big factor in why people wouldn't come after you in this game.
Questions
1. What do you think of my last statement? Do you agree or disagree and why?
2. I understand why James flipped, but I'd like to know your reasons for it. Why did you think it was better to get rid of me over him? When you won that HOH, I wasn't upset because I thought I'd be nominated, I was upset because in my mind, I *knew* I'd have to resign to the fact that I was going to F2 with you. And that didn't upset me because I thought I'd lose to you, it upset me because I was going to F2 with James and I thought he was getting evicted that week. I really don't want you to answer my question based on what I just said. You couldn't have possibly known that, so from what you did know, why did you think it was smart to go to F3 with James and Porsche and not F2 with me?
3. The game is over so I want the absolute truth. How long in advance was every decision you made in this game planned? One example is this: When did you know you were coming after Shane the week you did? I'd like an answer for every single one of your HOHs.
Both of you!
1. I'd like a detailed explanation of everything [alliance wise, game wise, decision wise] that happened the week McCrae was evicted, the week James was first evicted and the weeks Adria and Shane were evicted [for Rachel only since James wasn't around]. Everything. Leave nothing out. Anything you know, I want to know. I may follow this one up with more questions. James, if you know something about those 2 weeks, you can mention it too.
2. For every week in this game, name your closest allies for that given period. No explanations necessary. Just a name will do.
Good luck guys. This will be the determining factor as to who my vote goes to!
Just to end it on a more positive note, I don't have any problems with either of you outside of this game. I think you're both great and fun to talk to... And we'll obviously keep in touch!
