I think it's CRAZY that after losing 6 out of 9 of it's members consecutively, the original Raro tribe makes up for 2/3 of the finalists. It means we were the better tribe in the end (rofl)

Hahaha i love it so much! I adore both PH and Jamal and Jefra also seems like she played a pretty awesome game

Jaime Dugan, Jamal mentions in his FTC that he approached you to make an alliance with me and him and then we pulled in silas as a fourth. I don’t recall this ever happening? I know Jamal liked both you and me but we never actually had an alliance with Jamal that didn’t include silas as far as i recall. Am i forgetting something or Is jamal’s wording just off there?

Well, he is not wrong. I had a sort of 3-fronts situation with Jamal, Silas and You. I felt like I had bonded pretty well with the 3 of you, but ultimately Jamal was my #1 (he was the first person I made an alliance with). Jamal and I actually discussed the alliance with You/Silas and Chelsea. The plan was that I'd talk to You/Silas and He'd talk to Chelsea, but we'd to make it seem as if Jamal/I hadn't discussed anything at all so that we'd keep our partnership a secret from everyone. He then switched it and said that he'd talk to you about it (but I had already talked to you and then to Silas about it).

I became wary of Jamal because I realized that he was not only a very strong strategic player but also a very good social player. That was one of the main factors on why I pushed for Jaymes/Chelsea/Marcus at the first 3 votes. I wanted to undermine Jamal as much as possible (taking away people he'd suggest keeping). It also helped pushing the narrative with You/Silas that Jamal was stubborn and like always complaining about the votes we were casting. Don't get me wrong, he was still my #1, but I didn't want to empower him by keeping people I felt that he'd have much control over than I would've.  

Although for a moment I considered Silas my #1 (he was the person I was talking to the most because Silas was ALWAYS online) after the whole shenanigans when he confronted Spencer after I told him what Chelsea said I knew I couldn't fully trust him and then went back to considering Jamal my #1.

[Jaime Dugan]

Silas is SO wrong in the Jury thread, claiming that it was Chelsea who made the alliance. Chelsea was always the fifth wheel to that alliance. The core 4 was always Jamal/Brenda/Silas/Myself. Jamal and Myself came up with the whole idea about that alliance. Also, Jamal knew about the "all female alliance" because I told him about it.

[Jaime Dugan]

Geez, to me it seems that Silas dislikes Jamal personally and he's desperately trying to find a reason to not vote for him over Phoebe/Jefra.

[Jaime Dugan]

I don't know Jefra since I never played with her, but I have a feeling Phoebe wasn't around much (not because of inactivity but because her timezone was so different) to actually play a strategic game worth the Sole Survivor title. This game was VERY STRATEGIC from the get go, and I think the winner should be someone who played the best strategic game. Not pissing people off and not been threatening (which is different from deflecting the target) shouldn't be awarded the win.

[Jaime Dugan]

Silas is so full of himself is not even funny! I "felt his wrath at swap"? What wrath exactly? The only thing he did was preying on peoples trust and taking advantage of that. That's not "wrath" that's being a sociopath. I have to give him kudos because, even though I thought he was sketchy and I couldn't blindly trust him, he was smart enough to fool me into believing we were actually close.

[Jaime Dugan]

What is it with Silas and people's alias? Was he trying to figure people out?

[Spencer]

Anyone but Jamal.

[brendaxo]

Silas is crazyyyyyyy lmao i never got to see this side to silas in the game, he always kept it very cool with me. i read the jury thread and holy fuck, shit got intense between him and zach. yikes! but anywhooo, the FTC has been super entertaining to watch.

in the beginning i thought jamal would be sweeping the jury, with a few votes for jefra and i thought ph didnt have a chance at all but holy FUCK. my opinions have shifted drastically. PH is giving an AMAZING ftc performance. from the sounds of it, jamal seemed to have played the best game but perhaps isn't doing the best job at articulating it and has a bitter jury to deal with? jefra seems hella likable and i could see her winning at this point. but i feel like it'll probs be up in the air. it's truly anyone's game i think?

PH is such an iconic, hilarious, sassy queen lmao her response to silas and sarah was HILARIOUS. i guess they know not to fuck w phoebe, huh? hahahaha love the no-fucks-given attitude, major props.

silas is giving me such villainous vibes -- i love how he keeps it so real w the finalists but he's coming across super intense, i have to admit

i like all three finalists. even though idk anything about jefra, she seems like a queen! ive really enjoyed her FTC performance as well. i think i'd be happy seeing any three of them win but it would be an iconic end to the season if one of OG raro wins given our history in the game <3

[jaymes]

still cant pick between phoebe and jamal

Yeah, I think Phoebe is KILLING it when it comes to FTC! Jamal is not doing a bad job either, but with the perception that some people have of him being condescending, etc, it certainly isn't helping him. I'm glad he's not shifting tone though, and that he's being consistent with how he handled himself for the whole game. I still want to see him win over Phoebe, but I'd be glad if Phoebe wins cause it'd be the ULTIMATE underdog story \o/
