Welcome, Spencer ! You went out with quite the statement at tribal! Why did you feel that way? Do you think you could have made more in-roads with your social game? At least you won the Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament! Also, I will miss your daily struggle with images lmao. Thank you for playing! |

I hadn't seen I wont that tournament. Knowing my fate today, I figured that would happen.  I'm not sure what more I could've done with the social aspect. I'm 90% positive I was talking 1:1 with the Vugu members more than the either Jamal or Phoebe, but I have no idea. I made strong arguments to a few of them of why right now would be a huge power move with merge around the corner. I'm happy the other two went unanimous because maybe they start to sow the cracks that I made, because I don't believe they were doing much long-term talk either, more trying to weather the storm, which I can't blame them. But even with an apparent blindside (which much respect to whoever pulled that off over there) -- it's still 8-3 and they will control what happens. My statement was because it was either myself or Jamal. No one wanted to play. I could've tried the strategy of throwing him under the bus and saving myself due to the better relationships and neither of us performing great at challenges -- I'm not an immunity threat and I can help develop your alliance. Jamal wasn't going to do that. No one wanted to listen, so if I had to guess, I would suspect that most votes were already in before I even made the post. Except the gravestone. Which I will save and might become my new pfp if I keep using that Discord server. Knowing Grant is gone, if two players vote with us and move out a few of their weak players, you've know redefined the game. At that point, there's simply a chopping block, which isn't very entertaining at this point. I still don't get the images. |

Well, truthfully I felt it was over the second Jamie went home. Knowing for a fact one of the two of Audrey or Andrea flipped pretty much confirmed I had no pull left. That last vote though, XD, was that needed at all? I bet that was probably Alicia.
Im not betrayed really, Im kinda miffed but at least I got further than the last time I played

I was so shocked and devastated after you left. I wish they'd have voted Silas out instead of you. I know that you'd stuck with me til the very end instead of throwing me to the wolves like Silas did. Too bad he's probably made it to the Jury which means he won't get to explain his betrayal until the end. I really enjoyed what we had in the game and I wish we weren't as swap f*cked as we were . We never stood a chance. |

Im not betrayed really, Im kinda miffed but at least I got further than the last time I played Grant This is so devastating. I had a feeling this was going to happen. You were the only person from that annoying Vuku crew that even took the time to actually talk game with me. I'll always appreciate that. I think that Aubry was likely the person who flipped. Aubry tried so hard to hide the fact that she was a big player and always acted so nice and cheerful. I appreciated out personal conversations, but there was always this aura of fakeness about her... |

Even though we weren't ever really close, I thought you were a great, down to earth person. I really wanted to work with you and I thought that after the Marcus vote we'd have been able to connect but the swap f*cked us all. I was REALLY hoping the 3 of you (Jamal, Phoebe and You) would survive. Oh well. |

You can drop the act now, Im sure you can speak like an actual person now that the winning is off the table. hey grant, it's fair to say that you never got to know me, so you wouldn't know that this isn't an "act".. that i'm an actual human being with a personality. i know that might be hard for you to comprehend, but really. showing emotion isn't putting up an act, it's called being human. maybe you should stop acting like a condescending asshole now that the game is over. thanks. |

grantmattos , did you ever considered Alicia as a vote at the first nu-Vuku Tribal Council or were you always planning on voting a former Raro member?

Sorry to see you both here grantmattos & Spencer  Spencer - It's always great to have new people play in games. I know you weren't used to this type of way but you did the best that you could. Like the other oldRaro players here, you were just unlucky with how the numbers fell on the new tribes. It would have been sweet if you made it to the next phase to see what you would have done and whatnot. Grant - I liked that you were the leader when it came to challenges. You seemed like you were in a good spot on your tribe at the beginning of the swap but then it went downhill for you when you guys wanted to target eachother within the group. I'm glad that you made it further in this game than you did in your previous one. Love the drama that you brought. As I've asked everyone else; Who are you both rooting for and who do you hope to see next? And a bonus question; now that we're at the merge stage, which player do you wish that you got to meet that you didn't? Thanks so much for playing guys  |

Well, I know that it probably doesn’t make  feel any better, but at least there seems to be some gamesmanship going on over there. It bit two of our most genuine players in the swap first, which is why I was convinced there was so strategy. Just Pagonging it as far as they could go. If you have a strategy that dates back to before Facebook was invented, you need to update your game. So, well played over there after swap. Glad to see people trying to make moves.  There isn’t much to it. When I play, I’m often called genuine and a wild card, or hard to read, which is due to me enjoying getting to know people. It’s not fence straddling, or playing both sides, but the game shifts and the last thing you want is to not know someone who need you, and you need them. My only real game was stopping the bleeding once we lost the first two. I knew I’d we went down 3, they’d be forced to swap us, and it would be over from there. There was only one sinister move I did all game and that was leaving Jamal out of the loop on the Marcus vote. We had the numbers to vote out Phoebe. But I liked her and I know you two did, as well. If we had done that, it would’ve been clear we had a guys alliance, which we only formed because we were sure there was a girls alliance. LOL. I didn’t want a split camp going forward or into a merge so Silas and I tried to work with you all to find a common ground to vote for that one. It was just playing a long term trust....which didn’t matter because were all here. To answer your question :Kat:, I’m not rooting for anyone. Probably anyone I didn’t play with at this point. I wouldn’t mind seeing Phoebe or Jamal, but they don’t have a social game which is always the strategy I respect the most and why I always gravitated toward Brenda. |

I still dunno why ya'll chose Phoebe over me. But I'm guessing it was because I sucked socially. For what it’s worth, I probably would’ve pushed harder for Jamal when Silas and I were going to try and bring the tribe together. I had no idea anyone had ever put my name out there, funny how that happens, huh?  has thought I was going for every tribal council. Finally happened. 4th times the charm. Seems like  didn’t think I had a strong social game either. I did find it hard to connect with some people, but it’s too bad our DM’s aren’t in a server because I’d be interested to see who had the most individual messages sent. But, didn’t want to push for you, bro. By the time I was chatting up the other 3, it seemed like the easiest route to bridge any hard feelings. All I ever cared about was  and at least she played the game which is more than I can say for 75% of the people in this game, but I’ve never seen such sloppy and sporadic play. Love to connect with anyone on my main Discord, hit me up!! 😃😃😃 |

I wouldn’t mind seeing Phoebe or Jamal, but they don’t have a social game which is always the strategy I respect the most and why I always gravitated toward Brenda. Ok, so here's what was happening at old-Raro from my perspective. There was a 5 person alliance formed in the very first few days. It was made up of Chelsea, Brenda, Silas, Jamal and Myself. Even though Jamal opposed the last minute push to vote Jaymes, he was part of the conversation about that. The round Chelsea left, after Silas had confronted you about telling Chelsea that he had raised his concern about an all girls alliance (Jamal/Silas were both aware of it existence because this "female-alliance" was put together to keep Phoebe in check), Silas pushed for you to go over Chelsea. I shut down that idea because Chelsea was just all over the place and I thought that would be problematic moving forward, plus I had some friction with her because of the way she handled the Marcus vote and because I'd made the mistake of telling Silas that Chelsea was mentioning his name in the all-girls alliance. Jamal knew that you wanted to leave him out of the loop for the Marcus vote (which is one of the reasons there was a late-minute scrambling to vote for you over Marcus). The reason that didn't happen was because it'd have totally alienated Phoebe (who was really upset about the decision to vote Chelsea the round before WITHOUT her been part of the conversation) and at a swap, she'd have jump ship in a heart bit. Also, as I stated before, I felt like I had more of a connection to you than I did with Marcus, and so for me it made more sense for you to stay. |

So from your perspective, I was never in any alliance. Sweet. I think it’s tough to trust that Silas was with anyone. He seemed to tell everyone, everything, and act like that person was his main inner circle. Much like his namesake. 🤣 |

! I was so shocked and devastated after you left. I wish they'd have voted Silas out instead of you. I know that you'd stuck with me til the very end instead of throwing me to the wolves like Silas did. Too bad he's probably made it to the Jury which means he won't get to explain his betrayal until the end.
