Joe's Jingles

["Not-Joe" Dowdle]

No this won't be as happy as the forum title might've indicated. I haven't done this jury thing in a while, I certainly hope I still got it.

Gotta say, I'm real disappointed I couldn't get to grill John in this post, knowing full well I was gonna vote him to win anyway. I went through my day thinking it was a final 3 with 8 jurors when I saw Final TC posted, not thinking to look that Mr. Raymond's good 'ol picture turned gold on the memory wall....

But that's something else. We have this final 2 here now, and one of you is going to win.

Pardon me while I cringe and cry softly to myself in the corner.

ELISABETH:

A lot of people in the jury have been critical about your lack of communicating with others, particularly the villains. Playing with you before, I thought you'd be more receptive to conversations with me. But besides from that, you were a fairly loyal player, pulling out the last 2 immunities and 3 of the last 4. I always value challenge strength, and that will factor into my decision for this vote.

My question for you is why did you take a seemingly less social approach this game? In addition, I'd like you to tell me who you think each juror will vote for


KELLY

I think you lack substance. You are a girl, but that doesn't excuse you from not growing a pair and take a stand when the situation calls for it. You made it to the final 2, but you are by no means the favorite, no should you be. Besides John's vote, I anticipate you having little to no luck gathering more than elisabeth will.

My question to you is if you truly play ORGs to win, or do you just do it as an add-on vote to support your friends and go for the ride however long those coattails drag for?

Then I have a question for both of you.

I, myself, am an individual still growing in terms of what I accomplish and how I become a better ORG player. I know my mouth can spew fire at times, and most come back to burn me, but that's a pretty obvious answer.

I want you both to tell me how to improve my game. You never know when these tips can come help you in the future

Good luck to both and let the best girl win!

Hi Joe. I hope that after this game, we can talk again, because I really did like getting to know you. I'm sorry for the circumstances in which you left the game, but I don't have any regrets in this game. Everyone says I don't have a chance... but the way I played worked.

You said I didn't take a stand. Not to sound cocky or anything like that, but now, really, why did I NEED to? When I had a solid final 3, why should I throw it away so I can have a small chance of getting to the end with someone else?

Stephenie tried telling me a long time ago that Chicken was a backstabber. That he flipped every time to get farther in the game. You told me that Chicken was the only one left who was respected less than me So if Chicken was so disrepected for supposedly flipping, how can I be disrepected for not flipping?

And no, I don't think I'm just here for the ride. You make it sound as if I was their sheep. No, we discussed every round's vote. I just didn't go tell everyone about it. I don't see how being loyal = not playing the game. I played it differently, but I still played it.

As for how to play the game differently, I'm not going to sit here and trash talk you, but I'd just say what who you talk to next time. You told like all your secrets in every TC we went to.

Was that ballzy enough? Feel free to ask more questions if you need them

I had a feeling that John would have gotten a lot of votes had I taken him...my gut was telling me to take Kelly for that reason above and that I kept my word on a F2 with her.

As I said in Steph's questions...it's a bad habit of mine. I'll talk to my allies and not many other people. It's something I really need to start working on soon. It has cost me more than any other mistake in my ORG career.

John ~ I'd say myself
Chicken ~ I'd say Kelly
Joe ~ I'd say myself
Lex ~ I'd say myself
Stephenie ~ I'd say myself
Kel ~ I'd say myself
Mary ~ I'd say Kelly

I don't mean to sound like I'll win, I mean it could be opposite for all I know. Just based on vibes I'm getting, I'd say this is what the votes might come out to be. The only one I might say could be in the air is Lex. But like I said...I could be totally wrong.

Honestly from seeing you play in this and SurVs 7...I feel that what you might need to do is just think about your position. If you feel that you have something good...then stay with it...but keep your eyes open. The problem you had with this was trying to act on a possibility of a better option instead of actually just gathering info. As the famous quote goes, "The grass isn't always better on the other side." Had you not tried to jump over to John, I would be where you're at with you in my position. Just explore, but don't dive right in away.

Thanks, Joe.

Alright I have made up my mind. Congrats to both of you, it was a little harder than I expected but still not too hard. Hopefully the person I vote for wins, they will be a fine addition to the Vs winners circle
