Final Tribal Council

[Steve "Chicken" Morris]

I lied to him in an attempt to see if I could prevent him from finding out about my plan to vote him off. In the end, though, I was glad to see that he was trying to do to me the exact same thing that I was doing to him

I did find out about your plan, from Frosti. I purposely sent that PM to see if you would lie, and you did.

I was hoping you would lie ;D

[Jean-Robert Bellande]

Haha... happy I could oblige, Chicken. ;D

Leslie:

I'm not going to beat around the bush. I did have a hand in voting you out. This was because Jean-Robert wasn't there and you just were really allied with the right people when it came down to tribal council.

Did I ever break an alliance? Yes. When I tried to make the female alliance, that was obviously breaking a major alliance I had. When I voted off Erik, that was breaking the somewhat alliance we had, even tho he would've done the same thing the next round. lol

Why Do I deserve to win?

Unlike Jean-Robert, I didn't ride Frosti's coat-tails. And I never had people thinking that I had a hidden immunity idol for them to not want to vote me out. I never received a vote cast against me in this game. I did receive one penalty vote for voting late, but that was around the time of the holidays, and I had warned Jonathan ahead of time that I was making a small vacation.

Unlike Frosti, I didn't wait to long to really make a move. Without myself and Chicken, there would be no way of him being there. Most of the time, it was me and Chicken making the decisions and telling Frosti/ Jean-Robert how to vote. In a way, he road coat-tails just as much as Jean-Robert did. He didn't really make his major move until the final 5...which i feel is waiting a little too late.

I played the game strategically from the beginning, always making sure I would be in a majority. And this worked very well until very close to the end of the game. I didn't ride coat-tails to get here. I had close alliances to help me make decisions, but they never just had to PM me who to vote. I played as hard as I could the entire game, and that is why I should win.

Hi Leslie.

I did lie and betray alliances, specifically Dave (who I lied to so his alliance wouldn't target me), Erik (because I didn't trust who he was aligned with) and Chicken (because he was too big of a threat to have at the end). I did not vote for you, Leslie.

I should win because I played a complete game. I made alliances to get me further in the game and I voted out the threats. PG mentioned somewhere back there that I didn't play a social game, but that's completely not true. I had a final four alliance with Erik, Jaime and Ashley and I had a final five alliance with JR, Chicken, PG and Courtney. Clearly I played a good social game if I had two alliances willing to take me to the end. Also, I made one very strong alliance with JR which got me through the merge. I think I had a very good social game. PG also mentioned that I rode coattails to get to the end, but again, that's not true. I was part of an alliance and I fought for what was important in that alliance. Originally, the alliance was going to be Courtney, PG and Chicken. I knew I was low man on that totem pole, so I insisted that JR be part of it. That's not getting carried, that's setting myself up with an ally at the end which will make sure I make it through. I made the right moves at the right time.

Thanks for your questions, Leslie.

Well, all of the jurors except for Todd have made their statements/asked their questions. Once all the questions have been answered, the final 3 may post closing comments.
Also, jurors may vote whenever they are ready.

[Jaime Dugan]

I will vote AFTER I read the closing statements....

Impress me people!!! Remember I cry easily!!!

[Frosti Zernow]

Well, much has already been said in the answers to all of the great questions everyone asked. I feel I played a good game, both socially and strategically. I made moves when I had to and I took a step back when I needed to. I was loyal to those who could help me get to the end and I betrayed those who I thought would stand in my way. That's what Survivor is all about and I feel good about the game I played.

I guess all I want to say in closing is that this game has been the most fun one I've played. I had a great time. So thanks everyone for playing the game. And thanks to our host for making it all possible.

[Leslie]

thanks for your answers

[Jean-Robert Bellande]

Yeah, I'd also like to say that this game has been fantastic, and I think that speaks well of everyone involved.

I've covered most of what I'd like to say in my answer to Leslie's last question. I feel that I played a strong all-around game. Because of the tribe switches, I believe that I started off at something of a disadvantage, but through hard work, good planning and good strategy I was able to work my way back into a position of power. In essence, I feel that I was able to adapt to the situation I was given, and at the end of the game I was the one player who was willing and able to take the risky steps to get me to this final Tribal Council. Whether I win or not, I think it's a pretty good story.

Thanks again to everyone. I've had tons of fun! ;D

[Jonathan]

I have received votes from 5 jurors. I still need votes from Jaime, Ashley, and Courtney, I believe.

[Jaime Dugan]

I voted!

Hopefully this time its NOT late... haha

Good luck to PG, JR and Frosti! Thanks for answering all of our questions.

[Jonathan]

We are waiting on Courtney's vote.

[Courtney Yates]

I'm posting it in my confessional now!
