Yay! Congrats to all three finalists for making it to the end. You have all played great games and it was really fun playing with you!! To cut right to the chase...

Rob

Hi Rob! We already had our final conversation during the game, and I think everything that needs to be said already has been. I'm glad you used the game as an opportunity to be yourself and play how you wanted, and that you didn't let your anxiety stop you from continuing to participate. That was obviously a difficult decision, and it's awesome that despite all that you've managed to make it to the end! My question for you is the same as Matt's; I'm sure you're satisfied with however things end, but since you're a finalist, may as well fight for some votes! The rest of us would love to be in your position ):

Conor COONNOOOOR <333333 MY LOVE. I'm so happy that you made it to the end!!!! I think your plan of laying low after merge hit was smart bc the rest of us messy hoes clearly got the short end of the stick! Here are my questions for you:

1. How much of an influence do you think you had on Alex's decision to flip at F7? In his speech, he said that Edvin was a good secondary target bc he wanted to preserve his alliance with Vilma. Do you believe that your relationship with him was a significant factor in getting him to turn on his Shana alliance?

2. You mentioned that Matt was a huge target for you. Then why not take Vilma out at F6 considering her alliance with him? I understand that you thought Edvin was untrustworthy, but surely Vilma was as well? Her loyalties lied elsewhere. It seems that it would have made more sense to take out a close ally of his at the very least. On the off-chance that Alex chose to side with Vilma/Matt the week after (I know it's a stretch, but hypothetically), you'd have been in a messy situation. Plus she was a social & physical threat! Sorry, I'm just still trying to wrap my head around this.

3. Who should be credited for the 3-2-1 vote? You or Alex? You both allude to being the masterminds in your speeches.

4. Did Alex convince you to vote Tom out at F4?

Alex

I'm happy to see that you've added 'Black Pearl' to your playlist! Such a bop. I'm happy to see that you made it to the end too! You were one of my favourite people to talk to because obv I couldn't talk to anyone else about k-pop. Here are my questions for you:

1. During the revote (the week I got voted out), we talked a bit in the morning and you didn't respond to my messages later on. I'm not upset that you voted me out, but I'd like to know the reasoning behind ghosting me. Even Matt messaged me to say that he was voting me out for valid reasons. Did you think I'd be mad? If anything, it just kinda hurt bc I thought we were good allies and friends, and at the very least, I wouldn't have minded you being honest with me.

2. This brings me to my next question, in your ROP you said something along the lines of me playing people. I'm a bit confused by that because I don't think there was anyone, besides Matt, who I tried to play in this game. Did you think all my conversations with you were fake and me just trying to win you over? You and Vilma were the only Shana people I genuinely wanted to work with (oh and Ain later), which is why I spoke to the two of you the most. More than even my Dema allies. I suppose it could have come across as me trying to play you by forcing an alliance? But that wasn't my intent. Uhhh, so my question is, who exactly do you think I was playing in the game?

3. Did you decide to flip at F7 because of your conversations with Conor or because you wanted to all along?

4. Who should be credited for the 3-2-1 vote? You or Conor? Did you know that Rob was voting for Tom?

5. Did Tom reveal the idol to you of his own volition or because you confronted him about it?

6. Although I understand the logic of wanting to keep Vilma till F4 (if you lost immunity she'd def be an easy candidate to push the votes on), but weren't you worried that she could win the final challenge? Were you also not worried that she could outplay you and get the others to vote for you instead, considering her social skills?

Good luck to all three of you!! x
