Hey guys... hows it going. Congratulations on kicking 16 other peoples asses. You guys definitely deserve to be sitting here.
I originally came into here with an open mind. You guys are all good friends and I wanted to make the right decision. However after the opening statements I think I have a somewhat clearer choice.
Cristina, you are a great player and one of the sweetest people I'll ever meet. However you say that "We needed to get Nate out because if he made it to the finals he would win" if you failed to get Nate out before the finals. You are basically telling me that Nate should win. Also I haven't really read any of the other questions but I do not condone you for making alliances with people you played in with the past. I think its wrong if you say hey buddy lets sign up for this game together but if you meet someone in the game who you have a connection with... its inevitable to team up with them.
With that said... my question for you is... When voting out Jenny over Me... did you take into consideration the fact that Jenny may not vote Nate if Nate were not to win the final immunity challenge.
Jenny, You also played a great game. I think you are underestimated because you spent most of the game in the shadows of Nate. Even your idol was overshadowed by the fact that Nate played his idol the round before but nonetheless I didn't see the idol coming and it rather pissed me off. I think in the end even if Nate ends up winning this game... your decision to send him to SI was the right one because I'm not sure everyones intentions of the game... but I'm not sure you would make it to the end without Nate.
My question for you is give me 3 reasons why you deserve to win this game OVER Nate.
Nate, you were my homie and then I got greedy and tried to plot your downfall. Probably not only my worst gameplay move but also my worse friend move because I considered you my best friend in the game. With that said im not voting for the person who I like the most I am voting for the best player. When it comes to a play of your stature it is tough to know whether they deserve to win because they did the only thing they could do in winning the last handful of immunity challenges... or whether they were strategically handicapped and needed to win. Right now im leaning towards the first because you weren't targeted because no one liked you (such as others may of been). You were targeted because you were the most likely to win in the finals.
My question for you Nate is. With Jenny and CC's relationship and Mine and your relationship. Lets say I had been a good Sekou and stuck with you. Adam leaves, Steph leaves next. What would of happened at the final four? Also when i left Final 5 over Stephanie what was the reason that I was chosen over her?
Also,For All 3 I am slightly self absorbed... so right 2-3 sentences about how awesome i am! Haha but seriously do it.
Thanks for the incredibly fun game and good luck to the final 3.

What would of happened at the final four? Also when i left Final 5 over Stephanie what was the reason that I was chosen over her? Also, For All 3 I am slightly self absorbed... so right 2-3 sentences about how awesome i am! Haha but seriously do it. Hey Sekou! Thanks for the kind words! Had you stuck it out with us, you would have been in the final 3 sitting with me no doubt in my mind. There was no way I would have ever put your name down to vote you out of the game had you stuck with us because first off, I like you as a person and a friend and secondly, I considered you a loyal guy and I would never vote someone out for the hell of it. So had Adam and then Steph gone, at final 4 I would have voted with you and since CC and Jenny were tight, I can't speak for her, but after having been us 3 since the early stages of the game I would hope she would vote with us but if she didn't I would talk to her and try to convince her as much as I could to stick true to our alliance from day one because her and CC's relationship was more hey, friend, lets stick together! So I would definitely try and sway her to vote with us and make final 3 together like we should have IF she ever wavered but something also tells me had it been us 4, that Jenny might have voted CC out, but I'm not gonna out on a limb and say that because I could be wrong. As for you leaving over Stephenie at final 5, it was because at this point, Jenny had told me about her and CC's past relationship and that was our best shot to advance. CC would never vote Stephenie out and in that case I would have risked Jenny going home so since it was pretty much written in the wall that CC would vote you out over Jenny, we just went with it at that point as there was not much of another choice, because I don't think you would have voted Stephenie out at that point either, and if you did, there wasn't going to be too much mutual trust between us to believe you if you did given what had happened the round before. Sekou my man, you are awesome cause your a huge NBA fan like I am! Your awesome cause your a humble, down to earth guy and honestly, even if I don't win the game, I'll be glad to know I atleast made a friend out of you in it, I enjoyed talking NBA Playoffs with you and about how our players are doing in My Player Mode in NBA 2K11 haha. Your also awesome cause you know a lot more about how things are going in the game and even in general, you are more knowledgeable then you let on to others. Lastly, you are awesome cause you are a good guy to call a friend! You'll be even more awesome if you vote me hahaha! Thanks Sekou and good luck with your decision!!!

Jenny, You also played a great game. I think you are underestimated because you spent most of the game in the shadows of Nate. Even your idol was overshadowed by the fact that Nate played his idol the round before but nonetheless I didn't see the idol coming and it rather pissed me off. I think in the end even if Nate ends up winning this game... your decision to send him to SI was the right one because I'm not sure everyones intentions of the game... but I'm not sure you would make it to the end without Nate.
My question for you is give me 3 reasons why you deserve to win this game OVER Nate.
First reason. As the rounds progressed I caught many of the people's bullshit. When Yul went home we were thinking of voting Parv but I caught his lies and knew he was voting for me even after he swore to stick with me. I knew he was playing both sides. Just like I caught Parv trying to stick with us and Nate, it didn't feel right and again Steph. I was always a step ahead of everyone and had things go my way with a bit of luck of course and some info I kept to myself and some I told Nate, but I was always cautious. Telling people I had a nullifier was a key part in my strategy as I didn't want anyone knowing I had my HII.
Second reason. I survived multiple TC's closer to the end. I won immunity when I needed it most thus giving my ally a shot at surviivng which he did. It was a pivotal move to send him over CC when she urged me to send her cause I knew I needed Nate's vote going into the next few rounds when I would be vulnerable and I was right. I survived with the HII, then I survived the round after that and again this last TC. So since the round Yul left, I was a target each time and survived all of those rounds with strategy. I guess that's what made me a true survivor in surviving all those TC.
Third reason. I worked my ass off in the challenges and while Nate really went all out, I was consistently, third or second. Last challenge I did at least 3,500 posts, then went to bed and woke up to find out Nate went 2,000 more than me. I won a key immunity which was the pivotal point in my game as it saved me from using the HII and ensured my spot in two rounds.
Sekou I'm glad I worked with you. You're a cool person and we got along well this game. I wish you had stuck with us as we would have been final 3, honestly had you made it this far, I'd have probably taken you here with us since it was fair we stuck together till the end. We mostly talked strategy this game but you were honest with me when you voted me out and I respected that. We talked a bit before this game (Malaysia and all-stars) and I knew you were a hockey fan and you always had a funny personality. I wish you used more GIF's this game to express your thoughts.
Hope those reasons are enough to vote for me, thanks again for your time bud.

Hello Sekou
Sekou: Cristina, you are a great player and one of the sweetest people I'll ever meet. However you say that "We needed to get Nate out because if he made it to the finals he would win" if you failed to get Nate out before the finals. You are basically telling me that Nate should win. Also I haven't really read any of the other questions but I do not condone you for making alliances with people you played in with the past. I think its wrong if you say hey buddy lets sign up for this game together but if you meet someone in the game who you have a connection with... its inevitable to team up with them.
CC: Hey Sekou, Yes I want Nate out because I felt he could win not should win. He could win because the jury may see him as a working hard challenge dominator and based on my past games experience, that kinda of people always win. Should win is a very subjective. If you think by winning the challenge should win the game, then Nate is going to win. But if you think, being a sweetheart, naive but still got a killer instinct, then I should win.
And No I didn't come here with my friends. I didn't invite them at all. Jenny use another AIM in our previous game (Pearl Islands) and Parv also use another aim in our previous game (JLyric 4). I only know about Jenny when she approached me after check in. About Parv I only knew it's her after Merge. Both of them beat me in finale in my last two games, so it's motivate me to beat them this time.
Sekou: With that said... my question for you is... When voting out Jenny over Me... did you take into consideration the fact that Jenny may not vote Nate if Nate were not to win the final immunity challenge.
CC: Yup I wonder about it too. Only Jenny can tell the truth. But based on my observation from Final IC, Jenny work hard in Final IC. She's leading at the beginning but Nate are just so crazy. But I think Jenny will vote Nate out if Nate didn't win. I mean she's a smart person and Nate is not a bitter jury. Jenny will get Nate's and Penner's if she voted out Nate. Yup, I do think Jenny will be voting with me and Steph if Nate didn't won the final IC.
Thank You Sekou

If I meant the Mavs I wouldve said the mavs. The nets are my fav team, and no1 else deserves to beat us. We got deron williams, and kim kardashian, on our side.

Kim Kardashian + 1 I still wish Kris Humphries was on the Raptors for that reason alone and Deron Williams, the Nets robbed the Jazz, there's no PG in the league like D-Will, He's probably better for the Net's then Melo

How about the fact the NBA actually ruins the game of basketball at lower levels such as college and high school. Everyone thinks they should be a LeBron, Kobe, or Michael Jordan. It's sad for me as a true fan of the game, and a long time player of the sport.
I was going to vote for you to win this game Nate, but I can't respect people who actually enjoy throwing a few hours away to watch NBA. :-\

I'm totes watching the finals. I cheer for 28 teams... all of them except the Knicks and the Heat.
I prefer watching college basketball (march madness is the shit) but after that is over I have no problems watching the pros.

The college BB experience is much better, as well are their fans. Plus the NBA season really starts in February anyways too many teams in the playoffs
