Pen to me, baby

[Jonathan Penner]

Hi.

I got a series of questions for both of you. I'm stealing this from our good friend Kyle - no cliche answers and no one-word answers. Give good detail for everything.

Animal Crackaz

1) You said this in your opening statement

Then one week I received some information about a particular strong competitor, and I decided to not stand back and let the chips fall as they may, I took action for what I thought would be the best game move on my part and tried to get them eliminated, by agreeing with Flicka/Sundra. Originally I succeeded and regretted it, and it failed.

What information did you receive? And if you didn't receieve this information, would you have gone after me anyway? Did Surv All-Stars have ANYTHING to do with your decision?

2) A lot of the jurors seem to praise you for not having pre-allies where-as mean ol' Jonathan apparently came in the game with everyone as pre-allies. We both know this is untrue and since they won't take my word for it, why don't you clear up for the jury everyone you knew in this game outside of it? And what was your relationship with them in this game?

3) What was your reason for switching tribes in the mutiny?

4) When you initially eliminated me in the Pop Challenge, I felt you came off as extremely smug and arrogant. This is the main reason I blew up on you as I felt it was totally opposite of how I acted when you were ousted in AS. Why did you act the way you did? Was it something I did to offend you before?

kZone

1) What was your main reasoning for trying to keep Flicka over Yul?

2) You won some pretty powerful powers - do you think you could have gotten to the end without them?

3) You also knew people outside this game. Name all of them and give your relationship with each one.

4) You had a final two deal with Ozzy. What kind of bond did you two share and how well did you work together?

Both of you

1) Would you say having people you knew in this game helped you or hurt you?

2) Who do you credit most with getting where you are?

3) You both signed up early, why did you pick JP and Candace to play as?

4) If both JP and Candace were taken, who would you have signed up as instead?

5) Who do you think will win and what will the vote count be?

6) Make a list from 1-10 with each jury member. Say one positive thing and one negative thing about each person.

7) Make another list, this one from 1-12 which includes jury and yourselves. List who you think played the best game from top to bottom.

And finally

8) Did you have fun playing this game?

To both of you -

I'm sorry if I offended either of you with some of the shit I've done in this game. And there's even more with some of the nasty stuff I said in my DR and Jury House, so just be prepared for all that. I like you both, you know that. I hope no grudges form from this experience. It's just a game. I wish you both luck and I'm happy for both of you. Good luck.

[JP Calderon]

1) What information did you receive? And if you didn't receieve this information, would you have gone after me anyway? Did Surv All-Stars have ANYTHING to do with your decision?
I had heard that you were talking about me behind my back and whatnot. If I hadn’t received this information I don’t think I woulda gone after you that particular week, but I probably would have eventually attempted to go after you later in the game. Survivor All-Stars did effect it partially, since after I was voted out we didn’t talk as much, so I didn’t know where you were standing in here which made me a little nervous.

2) A lot of the jurors seem to praise you for not having pre-allies where-as mean ol' Jonathan apparently came in the game with everyone as pre-allies. We both know this is untrue and since they won't take my word for it, why don't you clear up for the jury everyone you knew in this game outside of it? And what was your relationship with them in this game?
Lies. Lol jk. I knew Parvati, Ozzy, Jonathan, Flicka, Sundra, and you for the most part. I knew who Candice, Cao Boi, and Becky were but I didn’t speak to Candice/Becky much, if at all until this game, and Cao Boi very seldomly. At the beginning if I remember correctly we were all in one huge orgy-like alliance, lolz... Minus Sundra/Flicka/Becky. But then once I targeted you, I kinda left that group and joined up with Becky/Flicka/Candice… which happened to be the minority, lol.

3) What was your reason for switching tribes in the mutiny?
Because once my old tribe ousted Sundra, I figured they’d just oust me next since I was aligned with her. And it seemed pretty obvious that the tribe would lose the immunity challenge up against a strong team such as your tribe’s team.

4) When you initially eliminated me in the Pop Challenge, I felt you came off as extremely smug and arrogant. This is the main reason I blew up on you as I felt it was totally opposite of how I acted when you were ousted in AS. Why did you act the way you did? Was it something I did to offend you before?
I didn’t realize I acted smug and arrogant, but maybe I did subconsciously or something. You did nothing personally against me, but you had targeted many of my friends/alliance members on the other side, which made me feel the need to take you out. If I did come off as smug or arrogant, I apologize for that… I leave my smug and arrogant comments for my Diary Room, lol.

1) Would you say having people you knew in this game helped you or hurt you?
Yes, I believe it helped me at the beginning, but once I left that group of people, and joined up completely with Candice I didn’t really need it. I admit Ozzy may or may not have helped Candice & I if he didn’t know me, but I really think he helped us because of Candice and his deal or whatever, not because he knew me. Since I didn’t speak with Candice outside of this game until now, I don’t think knowing people helped me at the end… but it definitely did not hurt me either.

2) Who do you credit most with getting where you are?
I first have to credit myself, because had it not been for me I wouldn’t be here at all, which is a no-brainer, lol. But other than me I’d have to say Candice. If Candice hadn’t won that rearrange all the votes thing, which she did the week you were voted off, we would have probably been two of the next two to go. I also have to credit Ozzy for a great deal of me being in the finals. Had it not been for him helping Candice & I, I don’t believe we could have found the way to the final 2.

3) You both signed up early, why did you pick JP and Candace to play as?
I didn’t really remember Cook Islands that well, so I just chose between the remaining guys left who I thought would be on the best tribe. I saw JP and Jonathan(you) were on the same tribe, and at the start of Cook Islands, I trusted you completely, and wanted to be on a tribe with you. It was between being on a tribe with you as JP, or on a tribe with Adam as Billy. I think I chose the lesser of two evils between JP & Billy, lol.

4) If both JP and Candace were taken, who would you have signed up as instead?
Definitely, without a doubt I would have picked Jonathan. Since I don’t remember much of Cook Islands, I remembered him from Micronesia, and he was my second favorite, behind Eliza in that series. He was always thinking and humorous, which is why I would have chosen him as my player.

5) Who do you think will win and what will the vote count be?
I literally have no clue how the vote will go down, it’s hard to depict what the jurors are thinking… I’m going to guess the vote will be pretty close at either 6-4, 7-3 or 5-5. I think it could go either way. We both played fantastic games and deserved our spots here in the finals in my opinion.

6) Make a list from 1-10 with each jury member. Say one positive thing and one negative thing about each person.
1. Ozzy- Positive- You are hilarious and have one of the most remarkable social games I’ve ever seen. Negative- I don’t like when you ignore me
2. Adam- Positive- You’re really, really fun to talk to and I <3 you for that. Negative- You became inactive towards the end here, which I don’t understand why.
3. Parvati- Positive- You played a kickass game, tried your heart out, and never gave up… except when you quit . Negative- I don’t respect that you quit.
4. Jonathan- Positive- You are a good player and really funny. Negative- Sometimes I feel that you play too hard.
5. Yul- Positive- You seemed to have played a pretty well social game from what I hear. Negative- You coulda done better
6. Becky- Positive- I got the hots for you. Negative- I don’t like that you lied to me the week Sundra was voted out
7. Flicka- Positive- You have a nice pussy. Negative- Your boobs need some help
8. Sekou- Positive- You’re so funny around the boards. Negative- I think you could have played the game better.
9. Cristina- Positive- I admit, you did played the game well, even though it hurt my game. Negative- I don’t like that you lied to accomplish what you did.
10. Brad- Positive- You were active and I respect you for that. Negative- I don’t think you tried your absolute hardest.

7) Make another list, this one from 1-12 which includes jury and yourselves. List who you think played the best game from top to bottom.
1. JP- I think I played a great game, because I felt like the underdog and the minority for just about the majority of the game. I feel like I overcame a lot and played a pretty good strategic game. I also originally won an immunity challenge to keep myself and Candice safe, but had that taken away. After that, I still managed to find a way to the finals. I was very active and participated in every competition I believe.
2. Candice- She also overcame what I believe to be a lot. But I feel like I was in the minority longer than she was, and I had to overcome more. I feel together, we played an excellent game. She had won the immunity at final 4 to guarantee her a spot in the final 2.
3. Ozzy- I believe you would have had the great potential to win the game had it not been for the final Pop Challenge. I think you played the best game out of the jurors and you deserve to be in the finals, which is why I wished for it to be a final 3 this season <3.
4. Jonathan- You played one heck of a game, but it was too much for me which is why Candice and I decided to oust you the week she used her power. You were a huge threat socially, physically, and mentally to us and we need you gone pronto! If we hadn’t succeeded in taking you out, I believe you would be in the finals, and if not, almost in the finals.
5. Flicka- You were one of the most active players here, and you played many key plays in your time on the island. You definitely deserved better than you got.
6. Cristina- You pretty much had a whole tribe at the tips of your fingers for about two weeks I believe. You decided who went for two weeks and sent them packing. Your downfall was the Pop Challenge which you were eliminated in… after nearly half the remaining players played their Pop Passes, lol.
7. Yul- I didn’t know much about your game, but you were very active, and you participated and socialized a lot.
8. Becky- You were the first completed in the Pop Challenge in which we must not speak of and you played a few good moves. You lied to me about voting Sundra off, but it was playing the game, so you do deserve more than others.
9. Sekou- I spoke a couple of times with you and we made a deal for a while, but soon we lost contact and I hadn’t know how you played other than one week of the game.
10. Brad- I didn’t speak much with you and therefore I have no idea how you played your game. But you made jury without quitting or becoming inactive.
11. Adam- You became inactive at a crucial part of the game.
12. Parvati- You quit at the near end of the game, which is why you have placed last on my list of most deserving :-\
And finally

8) Did you have fun playing this game?
Absolutely did. The game was amazingly fun and whenever I thought I was going to be out next, somehow I managed to stay in another week until finally I wound up in the final two. This has been an amazing ride and it seems like it’s been forever, so it’s weird that it’s finally coming to an end. But bring it on, baby!

To both of you -

I'm sorry if I offended either of you with some of the shit I've done in this game. And there's even more with some of the nasty stuff I said in my DR and Jury House, so just be prepared for all that. I like you both, you know that. I hope no grudges form from this experience. It's just a game. I wish you both luck and I'm happy for both of you. Good luck.
Same, same, same, same, same, 90% agree to that to you, lol. The 10% I don’t agree to is what I said about you in jury house… I didn’t say anything in Jury House haha. My DR’s are really bad for me, lol. So… don’t be too mad :-P.

[Parvati Shallow]

"Parvati- Positive- You played a kickass game"
"Sekou- Positive- You’re so funny around the boards. Negative- I think you could have played the game better."
"Brad- Positive- You were active and I respect you for that. Negative- I don’t think you tried your absolute hardest."

Yet I'm lower than him, I think thats contradicting your words. Theres no way Adam and I, two members of a strong alliance are less deserving of the win than people who were clueless to what was going on. I think thats a bit fake for jury sympathy.


" List who you think played the best game from top to bottom. "
apparently number 12 plays a kickass game

[JP Calderon]

You did play a kickass game, but since you quit I don't think you deserve it any more than they do.

[Parvati Shallow]

" List who you think played the best game from top to bottom. "

I do not see the word deserve

[JP Calderon]

ijriojgiejroi i misread question, stfu lol. *goes to re-do*

[JP Calderon]

7) Make another list, this one from 1-12 which includes jury and yourselves. List who you think played the best game from top to bottom.
1. JP- I think I played a great game, because I felt like the underdog and the minority for just about the majority of the game. I feel like I overcame a lot and played a pretty good strategic game. I also originally won an immunity challenge to keep myself and Candice safe, but had that taken away. After that, I still managed to find a way to the finals. I was very active and participated in every competition I believe.
2. Candice- She also overcame what I believe to be a lot. But I feel like I was in the minority longer than she was, and I had to overcome more. I feel together, we played an excellent game. She had won the immunity at final 4 to guarantee her a spot in the final 2.
3. Ozzy- I believe you would have had the great potential to win the game had it not been for the final Pop Challenge. I think you played the best game out of the jurors and you deserve to be in the finals, which is why I wished for it to be a final 3 this season <3.
4. Jonathan- You played one heck of a game, but it was too much for me which is why Candice and I decided to oust you the week she used her power. You were a huge threat socially, physically, and mentally to us and we need you gone pronto! If we hadn’t succeeded in taking you out, I believe you would be in the finals, and if not, almost in the finals.
5. Parvati- You played a great game, but you did quit which I don’t see how that makes your gameplay good, since it eliminates you from the game. But you did work pretty hard to get where you did.
6. Cristina- You pretty much had a whole tribe at the tips of your fingers for about two weeks I believe. You decided who went for two weeks and sent them packing. Your downfall was the Pop Challenge which you were eliminated in… after nearly half the remaining players played their Pop Passes, lol.
7. Flicka- You were one of the most active players here, and you played many key plays in your time on the island. Your gameplay got you to take part in taking out a very strong competitor, such as Jonathan, even though he wasn’t actually eliminated.
8. Yul- I didn’t know much about your game, but you were very active, and you participated and socialized a lot. You were almost voted out a few times, but your well-rounded gameplay got you through those weeks, and allowed you to advance throughout the game while others couldn’t accomplish such feats.
9. Adam- You became inactive at a crucial part of the game, and you relied on your alliances with others to advance you further.
10. Becky- You were the first completed in the Pop Challenge in which we must not speak of and you played a few good moves. You lied to me about voting Sundra off, but it was playing the game, so you did play better more than others in my opinion.
11. Sekou- I spoke a couple of times with you and we made a deal for a while, but soon we lost contact and I hadn’t know how you played other than one week of the game.
12. Brad- I didn’t speak much with you and therefore I have no idea how you played your game. But you made jury.

[Sekou Bunch]

Soft quitter. Soooooooft. Quit over an online game..Sooooooft.

[Parvati Shallow]

Hard. Still bitter over a game where you stood no chance of winning.

[JP Calderon]

Whome? lol

[Becky Lee]

J.P., you're so cute! Lol

<3

[JP Calderon]

Tehe, what can I do about it

[Candice Woodcock]

kzone

1) What was your main reasoning for trying to keep Flicka
over Yul?

I never spoke to Yul at all and I was more friends with Flicka. Yul was aligned with you guys (Adam, Jonthan, Ozzy) and really had no benefits for me to keep him.

2) You won some pretty powerful powers - do you think you could have gotten to the end without them?

Well my double vote went to waste so that didn't help me at all.
The power that I won was amazing but to be honest if no one won any prizes at all my chances were looking slim. I would of had to rely on ICs to get me to the end. So it is possible that without the powers, I could of made Final 2.

But just to let everyone know... I didn't need to use the POWER (change votes) because I had the votes.

(this is assuming people still had their prizes they won from the IC)

We came out with these plans:

Plan #1
Parv, Jonathan vote Candice
Adam vote JP
Ozzy, Candice & JP vote Jonathan

or

Plan #2
Ozzy nulify Parv's vote
therefore, we had the majority votes.


3) You also knew people outside this game. Name all of them and give your relationship with each one.

Ozzy - I know Ozzy from URTV. We made a final 2 deal at the start of this game. He was my real alliance with Adam and Jonathan.

Adam - I know Adam from URTV. Yeah, we were pre-allies, the alliance was Candice, Adam, Jonathan and Ozzy.

Jonathan - As I have mentioned above, we were preallies. In my eyes the alliance consisted of Candice, Adam, Jonathan and Ozzy.

Parvati - I know Parvati from a game he is hosting. We were aligned by association.

JP - At the beginning of the game we basically had an alliance by association lol It was like adam/jonathan/parvati/jp/candice/ozzy
I pretty much worked with him after week 9 TC

Flicka - I know Flicka from URTV series and we get along. I wasn't aligned with her at all at the beginning. Around week 9 she offered an alliance of me, ozzy, jp and herself.

Becky - I know Becky from the previous games (Thailand and Allstars). We were all good at the start but then I was pissed at her for what happened in allstars. Around Week 10 we began talking again and yeah. We never had a proper alliance.

Cao boi - I know Cao Boi from URTV series. We weren't aligned but by association.

4) You had a final two deal with Ozzy. What kind of bond did you two share and how well did you work together?

Ozzy and I told everything. We would discuss everything and make plans. That is why I think we were able to work excellent together. We trusted eachother a lot due to us communicating on a regular basis.

Both of you

1) Would you say having people you knew in this game helped you or hurt you?

hahaha I'm not going to lie. It helped out ALOT. I didn't really have to rely or form connections with other castaways which is kinda disappointing in a sense but yeah it helped out alot. However near the end it did kinda hurt me as the decisions were getting harder as we all knew eachother. Things were said/done and I'm glad it has all cleared up now.

2) Who do you credit most with getting where you are?

Definitely Ozzy. Without Ozzy being able to tell me what you, Adam and Parv were planning I would of been oblivious to it all. He was there when I needed him and supported my decisions. I could tell him anything and he would keep it to himself. I trusted him the most and it seemed to pay off.

3) You both signed up early, why did you pick JP and Candace to play as?

I don't know much about Survivor as I don't watch the show but I picked Candice because Adam told me it would be funny to play as her. I thought he was playing as Billy, we could of had a showmance.

4) If both JP and Candace were taken, who would you have signed up as instead?

Uh lol I probably would of picked any female available. Survivor selections aren't really important to me but from reading the list, maybe Jenny. I don't know why but she looks innocent.

5) Who do you think will win and what will the vote count be?

Based on things I have been hearing it seems like JP will win. It seems jurors aren't informed with what actually went on. JP and I both had preallies and we basically knew the same people. Neither one of us had an advantage or disadvantage.

I think the vote will be 6-4 or 7-3 - as JP has mentioned it will be a close vote and agree with his statement lol

6) Make a list from 1-10 with each jury member. Say one positive thing and one negative thing about each person.


1. Ozzy

Positive: I could tell you anything and know that you would keep it to yourself. You got me through the mess.

Negative: You were difficult at times but i understand your predicaments.

2. Adam

Positive: You were a great ally and very loyal. I trusted you alot.

Negative: I think you shouldn't listen to others as much as you do because it seems like their opinion becomes yours.

3. Parvati

Positive: You were loyal to those you are aligned to and played a good game.

Negative: You shouldn't of quit because it tainted your character (not for me but it seems for others)

4. Jonathan

Positive: You have great plans and a beast at competitions. Loyal to those who are loyal to you.

Negative: You assume things instead of communicating. You excluded me which was annoying.

5. Yul

Positive: You seem like a nice guy. I heard good things about you.

Negative: You put me first on your list, haha. Nah um we didn't speak at all.

6. Becky

Positive: You're a nice girl and very friendly. We get along great which is awesome.

Negative: You think JP is hotter than me. hahaha We didn't speak as much as we used to in other seasons

7. Flicka

Positive: I wanna be that... umm I think you are really nice.

Negative: At times I felt you only spoke to me when you wanted something.

8. Sekou

Positive: Your one liners were funny as hell! FRIK!

Negative: You're softt.... nah um we only spoke like once lol

9. Cristina

Positive: You seemed like a leader type of person which is pretty cool.

Negative: We were never on the same tribe, never communicated.

10. Brad

Positive: You seemed into this game and tried at ICs.

Negative: We never spoke at all.


7) Make another list, this one from 1-12 which includes jury and yourselves. List who you think played the best game from top to bottom.

1. Ozzy - You played awesome. It must come natural to you lol You were able to be in a good spot , with both alliances. It would be hard to go against you because you're awesome at the english language haha

2. Candice - I think played a good game. I made moves that got me here and my bonds with others helped me out when I needed it the most. I'm not implying I relied on others because they relied on me as well lol

3. Jonathan - You were an absolute threat! You had great plans but unforutnately I think you made one error and that is why I had to take you out. You were a great competitor and I truly believe you would be sitting here.

4. JP - I put you fourth because I think you did play a good game but you relied on me and Ozzy too much, to get to the end. If my alliance didn't crash and burn , things would of been different. You were a great person to talk to and had a lot of fun animal

5. Adam - You were really trustworthy and all for the alliance. You were good at competitions and whatnot. It sucks that you had internet problems right near the end of the game.

6. Parvati - You were good at competitions and social enough.

7. Flicka - You were a huge threat because you're good at competitions. You were kinda hated but had people who you could fall back on. You were entertaining.

8. Becky - You have a good strategy and as i have said silent but deadly. You were so close in staying and I believe you could of made it to the final 4.

9. Yul - You were good at competitions and were social enough to form some type of alliances.

10. Sekou - I didn't really see much from you so that is why you are placed this low.

11. Brad - This is just purely because we never were on the same tribe and I don't know how you played.

12. Cristina - This is just purely because we never were on the same tribe and I don't know how you played.



8) Did you have fun playing this game?

Yes, definitely. At times it was frustrating but honestly overall it was a great experience haha I didn't like it when we were against eachother but it's all good now danke danke

To both of you -

I'm sorry if I offended either of you with some of the shit I've done in this game. And there's even more with some of the nasty stuff I said in my DR and Jury House, so just be prepared for all that. I like you both, you know that. I hope no grudges form from this experience. It's just a game. I wish you both luck and I'm happy for both of you. Good luck.


Thanks KC What happened in this game surprised the hell out of me and changed it completely. I'm glad our relationship isn't affected by it!
