The Finale

Wow.

Well, here I am in the final three, and it's a pretty magical feeling. I definitely wasn't expecting to get nearly this far, since I was pretty sure I'd be voted off for being a huge challenge threat sooner or later, and it's definitely an amazing feeling to have made it all the way to the end. I don't know for absolute certain that I'm going to be in the final two, but I like my odds. Christa's known me longer than Kim, I think, so I think she'd probably be more likely to take me to the finals, but I don't know for certain. Kim will probably take me. At least, if she doesn't take me, I will definitely shake her hand and congratulate her on being the most unnecessarily deceptive person that I have ever run into.

I'm honestly not sure how a final two between Kim and I would go. I think that I would probably get Gabe and JT's votes, but I'm not so sure on the other three. Charlie definitely seems to be the kind of person who would go for the bigger threat, because I think he definitely respects players who go big and aren't afraid to be awesome. Christa is hard to read, and I don't know what she'd do. Darrah's post in season 5 blames Kim for taking her out, and I think if Darrah knew that Kim had insulted her in the tribe camp, she might vote for me. I dunno. I feel good.

But even if I lose, I honestly wouldn't mind it all that much. I've been around a loing time, and had my trust abused more times than I can count, and if Kim's actually been loyal to me this whole time, finding an ally like that is worth way more to me than the win.

PWs, thanks for being here and making the game awesome for me. I look forward to playing with y'all in All Stars. Wish me luck!

Jay, thanks for hosting. I loved the game, and the twist kicked ass.

Good luck.

Pshoo! That was a close call! Christa won the final IC, and then told me and Kim that she was going to ask a question, whoever got it right would get to stay. Also, because I know this is probably going to come up sooner or later, no, I didn't throw it. I just kind of legitimately sucked. For whatever reason I blow out loud at AIM speed challenges, so I wasn't surprised to get my butt handed to me on this one. I will give major props to Christa, though. That girl spent like an hour and a half on that last challenge, practicing. She definitely earned it.

The question was, how many people have played Survivor? I answered first, 348, and got it wrong. I tried 338, and that was wrong too. But immediately after I guessed, I went to wikipedia to look at the list. Then I remembered that Fiji had an odd number, so it was actually 337. I beat Kim by like two seconds, literally. It was that close.

Going into the final tribal council, I don't know how I'll do. I'd like to believe that I'll win, because I'm pretty sure Kim will vote for me, and I can't see Charlie voting for Christa, so it would really have to be Darrah and JT and Gabe being totally bitter bitches, and I think they're way too mature of players to vote like that.

But stranger things have happened, so even though I feel really good about my chances, I'm still going to bring my A Game, and try my hardest to win.

PS - don't know if you guys noticed this, but my Erinn Curse of never being on the jury is technically intact, since I'm a finalist and not a juror. Funny old thing, life.

Oh, we had the same challenge in season 1 and I completely threw it.
