 Lawrence -

'''I never got a chance to get to know you, but I did get a chance to get close with a few of your friends in the game. If they appreciate you, than I have to believe you are a great kid. Hopefully you get another chance to play, as leaving the game before an inactive is a bit unfortunate.'''

 Patryk- 

'''We got the chance to chat a bit pre-game, but then that seemed to disappear after the game began. I'm not sure if this is because of the International/American  lines which were drawn in the sand so early on, or because of other reasons... but I found you to be a kind person.'''

- Corey- 

'''I spoke to you a grand total of 2 times, and you were pretty unpleasant to me during both of those conversations. I'm still a bit confused as to why you joined this season, but I don't hold it against you. I'm sure you'll find success in another season, someday.'''

 Matthew-

'''What a player you were. From the very moment you encouraged your team to throw the challenge, while also refusing yourself to throw it, I knew you were going to be a highly strategic factor in the game. I think that had you made merge, a clash between the two of us could have been one of the better rivalries in ORG history. Unfortunately, I had to make sure that didn't happen. Aside from the game, we got to chat a bit about your intended career and just life in general. You and I don't seem altogether unlike each other, and I'm sure we would get on well in real life. Thanks for spicing the game up man.'''

 Ahad-

'''You sly devil, you! When Jerby let me know that you had somehow twisted a conversation wherein I congratulated you on an amazing idol play, into something about me ASKING you for the idol... I knew you were someone I couldn't mess with while still in the game. So if there's a reasoning behind the two of us having almost no communication, it is certainly that. Outside of the game, you seem like a great young man with a spark that entertains most around you. Not only this, but you are one of the most naturally gifted and intelligent people in this game, and I think you will be very successful in whatever path you choose to follow in life.'''

 Jamie-

'''For someone in your age bracket, you are an incredibly mature individual. Many times you impressed me with your ability to stay under the radar, and to deflect the attention when the situation called for it. On a personal level, we didn't get to know each other as much as I might have hoped, but you seem like a great guy from the brief interactions we had.'''

 Dustin-

'''You are a real character. It's a shame that school bogged you down so much in this game, because I feel like you could have done a lot more than you did... had you simply had the time to commit to it. When we finally got a chance to have a few conversations late in the game, you had me laughing frequently... and it was refreshing speaking with someone who is a bit less serious about this whole thing. Thanks for playing man.'''

 Jonas (a.k.a. "Kaffe")-

'''Kaffe, Kaffe, Kaffe. I hope you realize that it crushed me to write your name down. When I put myself in the power swing position between voting you, and voting Tyler.. I knew I was going to hate myself either way. With Richie gearing up on the other tribe next to Jordan, I became paranoid that you would flip to them. It was a purely strategic decision, but sometimes you can't avoid the fact that a strategic decision feels terrible... even if it benefits me. You were a challenge beast, a fair bit of a strategist, and most importantly you are a great great guy. We had our share of non-game conversations, and I enjoyed every one of them. '''

 Richie-

'''What to say about the Java Expert-in-training? A real joy to spend hours chatting with, and someone whom I think would be a very good friend of mine in real life. We covered all the bases in our chats, and this is disregarding all the time we spent discussing strategy. The way that you cared for Agus, and genuinely wanted to see him succeed was inspiring and I find it very admirable. Always remember that you can hit me up any time you like for help in your Computer Science courses. I'll be happy to help any way that I can!'''

 Jordan-

'''The master scrambler, as I dubbed you in game. Your alliances were constantly getting blown up... from the moment I took Matthew, right up to when I took Richie. It was never anything personal with you, although your public comments post-elimination didn't go unnoticed by me or the rest of the players. You did your best to blow up my game, so I hope you appreciate what it took for me to stick around and answer your questions at FTC tonight.'''

 Agus-

'''Agus! The most misunderstood man in this game, by far. Everyone on the American side seemed to develop this persistent rage towards Agus that was never very well rationalized or justified. Meanwhile, Agus and I were building towards a great friendship and understanding of each other. We covered the full spectrum during our chats, from women, to politics and religion, to football, to Argentina and Minnesota. We even chatted in Spanish at times. I had a lot of fun chatting you Agus. You are a genuinely good human being and someone who has more compassion than you know what to do with. I hope we can have that coffee one day.'''

 Ryan-

'''Quanz, I wish I could say more. We spoke a maximum of three times, and it was always strategic. Wish you could have seen the game out, even if you leaving was to my benefit.'''

 Tyler-

'''TMose, you know already how I feel about your gameplay. We were right there for each other for a vast majority of this game, but I always knew that you would flip and try to cut my throat eventually. I knew this, because I respected your strategy. When most others found it offensive to suggest cutting out alliance members, you were thinking logically. Had a few others joined your thought process a bit earlier, you could have had your way. As it stands, you're still a great player and someone who I think can destroy a game on his second time out. I hope you get that chance, man. On a personal level, I think you are a good guy who is fun to talk with. You are young, so I understand when you and Sam would perhaps overreact to certain things at times, and I don't hold that against you. Overall my experience with you was great fun.'''

 Blake-

'''The hidden strategist, Mr BlakeTheSnake. It wasn't until post-merge that Blake decided to come out of his shell and start shaking things up. It was at this point that we actually got a chance to start chatting it up. You're hilarious, and again (I know I've said this a lot already) someone I think I would get along with really well in real life. We both have a strong interest in Psychology and how it can be manipulated to play the game, we both have a strong interest in fitness, we both have a strong interest in playing FIFA :P    Anyway, it was great to play with you man. '''

 Nokomis-

'''The most polarizing personality of the season, in my opinion, you were truly one of my favorites Nokomis. You knew who you were, you stood by that, and you acted freely upon your instincts and in the way that you found to be most enjoyable. You had no filter, and said pretty much anything that came to mind. Sure, that created problems for a few people.. but personally I always found it equal parts refreshing, and entertaining. You'll go down in ORG history for your Wrecking Ball video, and I'm sure you'll get another shot at playing. I know how much you love Survivor.'''

 Noah-

'''Noah, you are certainly a gentleman. I've never encountered someone who was so unbiased and so hell-bent on being the kindest person he could possibly be. At first, I struggled to figure out whether this was a strategy of yours... or the real you. As the game wore on and I got to speak with you more and more, I decided that you truly are just a great person to be around. You're well spoken, dedicated to the things you love (need I say what that is?), and fun loving in a way that was incredibly refreshing for this game. Even when the times were tough, you were positive. The way you accepted your elimination was gracious and full of class. I honestly can't say enough about your maturity man. Take it from someone who has lived a few more years:  You will be successful in whatever you choose to do, but more importantly as a human being. You already are.'''

 Sam-

'''Sammy, we aligned very early in the game and bonded over our love of autosports. I still swing by your youtube page and watch the recent race vids that you post every so often. As a person, you shocked me with your level of maturity. This was on display, when you took full responsibilty for going to far with the roast. Not a lot of guys your age would even consider doing something like that... and it says a lot about the way you are being raised. I respect that a great deal. As far as gameplay goes... look how far you came! Even though flipping on me may have seemed like your downfall, I do not blame you in the slightest bit. You did what you had to do, and again I respect you and Tyler for trying to put it all together while it seemed you still had the chance. I look forward to seeing more of those racing videos in the future... including your Nascar rookie year one day :)'''
