First of all, I don't like your implication that Jenny is not smart. She knows when folks are being straight up with her and when they are trying to play her. That has nothing to do with whatever you did. And what you did is not unheard of, but it doesn't say much either. So what? You won X amount of challenges in a row. Big effin deal. I've seen it done before. She viewed you as a threat due to where you seemed to have your loyalties in this game, not because of some previous game. And had you voted with me, along with Billy voting with me, that would have been enough to save my ass, instead of me having to use my Idol. Not that it would have been much good after merge anyways *it was only good until the merge*. And that's why you lost that mark of trustworthiness with me. Wait, hold on. I was never insinuating that Jenny isn't smart. She's a very bright player. But honestly, it's hard not to take previous knowledge of people into account when you're making decisions who to trust or not trust - whether you mean to or not. It's just a fact. I specifically said that I didn't necessarily think that Jenny not knowing who i was would have made the difference between my strategies working or not working, but it definitely didn't help, is my point. And, what I meant by my reputation having an impact is that I'm known for being a smart player and a challenge threat. Not referring to any specific achievement. Besides, if you read her confessionals, she specifically told Cristina (and probably other people) that "Ublaz" is not someone you want to trust. Not that "Parv" is someone you don't want to trust. Significant difference. But while we're on that subject, I'm actually gonna say that winning all of the individuals challenges (IC and RC) is pretty unheard of - by that, I mean that I have never heard of it happening, nor has anybody else I've run into. If you've seen it done, that definitely makes you the first. So, to me, it kind of is a big effin deal. And, yeah, I knew that I had to make a choice between Cecilia and you, and quite frankly there wasn't a great reason to keep you. You were seen as the least active on the tribe, and keeping you would have caused a lot of controversy - and I wanted to avoid that. So, yeah. No offense meant to Jenny, but knowing my identity had an impact. It's obvious. I don't particularly care, since as I've stated repeatedly, I was playing for personal amusement instead of the win.

Not that you won't believe me but I only told her that to gain her trust, since I needed to know she wouldn't tell anyone about my HII, I needed to trust CC on that, I didn't really care who you were, I just knew "Parv" was playing a sneaky game and I went on instinct, whomever you were outside the game really had no impact on my decision and had you been another person, I'd have voted you off and told CC not to trust you anyways
