'He is telling why he decided do the same thing what I do with the same motivation and is telling that it was obvious... for both of us. Lol.'

I know I made the obvious move here, and I don't think. It's to drive home the point that I played the game with a level head too.

'John was loyal, calm person and I felt that he won't do anything against me. He told in his speech that we had a strong connection. So I chose the allie with whom I felt better. Linus, please, don't try to daydream about my game when you have no idea about that.'

Not daydreaming but ok. In keeping John you left your game in other peoples hands. I get that not trying to ever take control of the game was your strategy, I just feel like it can only take you so far and shouldn't be looked at on par at the end with someone who made the moves they had to to get to the end with the people they wanted sitting next to them.

'I abstained from most of the challenges for purpose. I'm an experienced player and I tried different ways to go to the end and almost always I was voted out as last player before the jury because I was both strategic, social treat and in challenges also. I didn't want to have the same, big target on me in this season. It was simply a test... to play without having special powers. I didn't also guess idols - only when someone asked me about that. In my previous seasons I always get hidden idols and special items...'

Again, this can only get you so far. Sure people will want to take you to the end as you aren't percieved as a threat, but at the end of the day you also have very little to show for it and didn't have as big of an influence as you could have in the game.

'It's sad that you need to attack my speech and my person. Calm down, please. You don't need lie after lie. Try to be honest... at the beginning with yourself. I didn't like your speech because I have found there some things what made you bigger star than you actually was. I don't need to show people how poor your game was. I could do that without a problem. But I think that my hard work is good enough without showing people what was bad in yours game and strategy. Or Marie's of course.'

Of course I'm presenting the highlights of my game in my speech, this is the end of this. And of course I'm going to say why I think I played the better game than you, thats the whole point of final tribal. I attacked your gameplay because it's a style I can almost respect had you submitted more and been slightly less paranoid seeming since it gave away hardcore to me that you were playing everyside. As for the personal attack I assume this is referring to when I said you called Claire and Christine bitches and talked badly about people behind their back... Which you did.... Also, if you think my game is so poor why would you say you wished you could have got rid of me? I'd think with your playing soley to win you'd want to bring someone you thought played poorly. You are just showing yourself to be a hypocrite attacking my game and character, while getting offended when I do the same.

'Don't you see how are you focused on yourself? You were only one of some good players in the game in this moment. And I also was the one what people wanted vote out. We both worked hard to change people's minds. And during next tribal councils... Sorry but for example John was for me a bigger treat.'

I know I was, thats my point... I was a threat, but I was able to keep myself out of the line of fire enough that no one perceived me as the biggest threat. A tactic I used throughout he game. Heres the thing though, I think to Michael and Marie, I was actually the bigger threat to them than Anna was at this point. Anna was still voting with them most of the time, and was actually wanting to target a Vatanchu when the week started. Although Michael wanted me gone, I was able to convince Marie (Who I would continue to go against and had known me to lie to her in the past) that I wasn't a danger to her game. Which I was as I continued to vote against her and eventually take out her close ally. I know I wasn't the only threat, but I was still a threat and I was able to keep myself from being seen as the biggest one.

'It was his decidion that he gave you another chance. Is he now with us here?'

No, he isn't. I don't see what your point was. I still turned someone I literally just voted against onto my side and was a big piece in reunited an old alliance that was at risk of falling apart.

'All what I'm going to say it's only my personal opinion, I can have one so don't treat it like the most important thing in the world. I'm only guessing. I can. :) "I'll point only one of the reasons.. people knew that you had known that it's a chance for vote you out tonight. And blindsides are always a better way to entertain VL..."'

This statement wasn't even about you, it was just showing that the game I played made it so I wasn't targetted thus proving Im not only here because of my physical prowess because if that were the case I would have been voted off in a round before I had the chance to win out.

'Again, Linus, please. 9 more players. You weren't the most important one.'

Ok, well again I don't think I was. The point stands that I was good at keeping myself out of the line of fire at key points in the game, so people gave me the inch and it allowed me to take the mile.

Ok phew. Besides this I want to say Joanna I am not trying to attack you as a person as I do like you, but I'm more than allowed to defend the game I played and why I think it is the most deserving of the title of sole survivor. However, I also hope you know that this is all in the game, just as it is for you. So even though we are BOTH attacking each others games, I do not intend to attack your character and you are pushing a lie that I am arrogant when I am just stating he moves I made. I am sorry if what I've said has offended you, but it's all in the game and I don't dislike you as a person.
