Im about to post my questions, Im just going to read through the other statements to see what I would like to ask, just remember, I really dont know any of you 3 or anything about your game so in my question, detail will probably be important because Im so unaware of anything that happened on your tribe or at merge since I didnt make it there and everything in the jury house has not really centered around any of the 3 of you.

Ok I just want to start by saying that this was a game I was really looking forward too in the beginning, but a combo of losing so many challenges and going on vacation for a while and everything just left me so out of the loop and plus i was playing other games and just invested more time into those then I did too this one. Im sorry to the host, but it was just circumstancial. Anyway, I do have some questions......
Again, I didnt get to know any of you 3, I think I talked to Danni the most right at the very start before tribes were chosen, but thats really about it. I dont know any of you personally and actually was going to not ask a question or vote or anything because I knew someone like Silas would appreciate it more, but since 2 other jurors dont seem to be here, Ive decided that I will be here. and my vote is obviously up for grabs because you all are literally on equal playing ground
TO ALL 3 ---------------- Id like to know, if you had to vote between the other 2 finalists, who would you vote for and why?
Also, if you got to cast a vote for one of the 3 finalists, would you vote for yourself or would you vote for one of the others? Why? (and there needs to be a reason if you do vote for yourself and not "duh, so I can win" haha)
Danni- You seemed pretty cool, I, like you, have a hard time with the backstabbing part of Survivor and am usually looked at as a "loyal ally" but rarely as a star of the game, its very easy to fall into the role of follower because people make suggestions that benefit you, so you accept it. If you want Colby out and your ally suggests voting Colby, then why would you flip and say no lets vote Misty or Sally or whoever? So I get your gameplay in that respect, but I would like to know.....I have friends in ORGs that I always seem to end up aligning with because we just accidently find each other in games, but sometimes we do sign up together. But with these friends, I feel that we are mutual and they dont do things to throw me under the bus, but based on comments that were made in your opening statement, this doesnt seem to be the first time that Alina has worked with you and threw you to the wolves at the end, why do you continue to work with her if you dont feel she gives you any credit?
Alina- Weve never met, but from reading your stuff you seem to be throwing your allies under the bus a little bit here at the finale after saying you worked so hard for you all to get here as a team. I dont disagree with your approach because you need to do/say what you can to win the game and I applaude you for that. You played very aggressively and really did seem to play to keep your allies in the game and seemed to have a good control over the game throughout the entirety of it, from what I can tell. If Danni/Fabio had decided to flip and leave you out, do you think you would have had the numbers with a different group or do you think you would have had to scramble at that point?
Fabio- We talked once, I cant tell from reading your other answers what your game really was, so Id like you to just give me the hard sell on why you think you should win the game over all other players.
To conclude, best of luck to all 3 of you, nothing Ive said is meant as a shot at anybody, they are just general comments/questions and shouldnt be taken as an attack or anything, because they arent meant that way in the least bit

Glad you made it Cirie!!
I have made the finals with Danni many times and I have always said to her and even told Fabio when we made it to the end of this game. I play hard with my allies to get us to the end so we all have a shot at winning, but once we hit the finals. Then for the next 2-3 or however many days final TC lasts, we are no longer a team. We are opponents and gloves come off, i'm gonna pull no punches and i'm gonna fight to win. I wouldn't expect any less from them. I can see how it can be perceived as throwing them under the bus, but I view it more as just stating what I did, I feel my actions in this game fit in with how the game played out so I am not gonna sit here and give other people credit for ideas or moves that were made that were my idea just to promote the 'unity.'
As for what would happen if Fabio/Danni turned on me, well if they both joined up together and turned on me, it would definatley be a bumpy road. But I think a big part of it depends when they made their move. If they tried to do it at start of merge with Wendy, Danielle, Jenny and everyone still in the game. I feel I would have a better shot of scrambling and forming a new alliance quickly to get me back in the majority.
But if at like F5 or F6 they had decided to turn on me. I'd probably be screwed. I may of been able to sell them out to JP/Brady/Brett and go F4 with them but i'd be in the follower position as opposed to leader and would probably be out in 4th if I didn't win immunity. So really it comes down to when they made their move and how many pieces were left in play. I feel though that if they betrayed me and I caught wind of it i'd be able to atleast secure myself into the F5 or F4 without them. Any further then that would have to depend on immunity.
Id like to know, if you had to vote between the other 2 finalists, who would you vote for and why?
Some people might be surprised to hear this but... I'd say Fabio. If you had asked me going into this i'd say Danni. She has been my friend for a long time so I want the best for her. But one concern she before TC started was worried that i'd come into this final TC lying to look good. Although I lied probably more then either her or Fabio in the game, final TC is the time to come clean and be honest.
I feel she has been the least honest of all of us. In her opening statement she said that she had set up other alliances to back up me/her and our alliance was always her priority. Then in answering someones question (I believe JP) when asked about how serious she was about their original F4... She said that was very real to her and she knew she'd have to backstab me and go with them.
I also think there is a lot of 'my word vs her word' of who did what, and Fabio who is the 3rd person in this alliance, went through the whole game with us and was an active part of the entire game plan, when answering questions comparing me/danni, his answers seem to back up what i say, so I would vote for someone who I maybe felt did less but was honest about what they did. Then Danni who I felt did more, but then at final TC when it was time to come clean exagerated and stretched the truth to try and make herself look like she did more and played better then she actually did.
Also, if you got to cast a vote for one of the 3 finalists, would you vote for yourself or would you vote for one of the others? Why? (and there needs to be a reason if you do vote for yourself and not "duh, so I can win" haha)
I'd vote for myself, I've always been a fan of strategical players. Richard Hatch, Heidik, Rob C, Fairplay. I figure if you want to be rewarded for how fast you can run, swim, do physical challenges. Go join the olympics or some other sports team. If ya want to be judged on being able to smile, be socially polite and just be everyones friend. Go join a pageant. I believe the core of this game is strategy and wouldn't be nearly as succesful or entertaining if the whole game was based on 'lets just vote the nicest person or the most athletic all the way to the end and let them win.'
But lets look at the 3 biggest parts of this game people could look at:
Challenges - Bret and Wendy were the dominants, only one individual immunity was won by someone besides them and it was by me.
Strategy - I feel this final TC has shown that I was the most strategic of us 3.
Social - Obviously we didn't talk cause we were not on the same tribe ever, but I was surprised how when talking to Fabio/Danni about people who were either on the outside or not part of their immediate plans they'd openly admit to me they had never spoken to the person and didn't have any plans to.
So I feel you look at those 3 major factors, I got the check mark in all 3 of them and that's why i'd vote for myself.

Honestly... i made the best out of a really bad situation. i didn't pull off major blindsides... i didn't pull off huge immunity runs. I stayed loyal to my ONE and ONLY alliance... I didn't step on any toes i didn't want people to look at me and think "What a lying backstabbing asshole." And I accomplished that. I was given lemons and made lemonade... while Alina and Danni were given apples, and oranges, and lemons but only came up with lemonade and pissed off oranges and apples.
Haha
Hopefully that answers your questions

Id like to know, if you had to vote between the other 2 finalists, who would you vote for and why?I would vote for Alina. Although she says she wouldnt vote for me... (notice she never said why shed vote for fabio just why she wouldnt vote for me... another tactic of hers to make sure i lose jk.) Alina played a solid game. I think compared to Fabio she ran it. she did many controversial things that i disagree with completely but when placing their games side by side she destroyed fabio. Also, if you got to cast a vote for one of the 3 finalists, would you vote for yourself or would you vote for one of the others? Why? (and there needs to be a reason if you do vote for yourself and not "duh, so I can win" haha)Id vote myself. I think in the end me and alina stuck together the whole time. we both made decisions whoever said it first doesnt matter we both agreed on them. I just was the person who did it with honesty. I didnt go into the final challenge panicing and using a past score. I tried hard for my 22 seconds becuase i felt like i truly wanted to play the most upright game i could. I think alot of people do not realize is i did betray brett/ed/jp. however... my plan was to stick with alina the whole time. and i have done that and still will do that. even though she says the gloves come off and she is going to do whatever it takes to win. i am not going to do that. i want to win more then anything but i am not going to say anything to attack alinas gameplay (well try not too) its difficult becuase i always just get badgered by her. Danni- You seemed pretty cool, I, like you, have a hard time with the backstabbing part of Survivor and am usually looked at as a "loyal ally" but rarely as a star of the game, its very easy to fall into the role of follower because people make suggestions that benefit you, so you accept it. If you want Colby out and your ally suggests voting Colby, then why would you flip and say no lets vote Misty or Sally or whoever? So I get your gameplay in that respect, but I would like to know.....I have friends in ORGs that I always seem to end up aligning with because we just accidently find each other in games, but sometimes we do sign up together. But with these friends, I feel that we are mutual and they dont do things to throw me under the bus, but based on comments that were made in your opening statement, this doesnt seem to be the first time that Alina has worked with you and threw you to the wolves at the end, why do you continue to work with her if you dont feel she gives you any credit?Thanks for the kind words cirie. I am very glad you say my dillema. Alina and i have been friends for years. she always screws me over no matter what becuase all she wants to do is win win win. Games are fun to me they are not my life. I am a busy college student getting 4-5 hours of sleep at night. I have classes all day and so much more to do. I play games to fill in thoose spots. I dont make these games my life. and i know i have not one 60+ games becuase of this. I have won 1 game and i am proud of that game. id rather win one straight forward upright game then win 60 games where a few i have bashed one of my good friends. And i just really wanna beat alina that one time. i think this may be that time becuase i have worked sooo hard in this game but becuase of her big personality i will get overlooked and that just isnt right... im like a toodler and shes a teenager picking on me... not fair haha Thanks Cirie I appreciate it!

I didn't see the first two questions... sorry
Id like to know, if you had to vote between the other 2 finalists, who would you vote for and why? I'd vote for Alina because near the end Danni was wishy washy and was not loyal was Alina was loyal to me throughout the whole game.
Also, if you got to cast a vote for one of the 3 finalists, would you vote for yourself or would you vote for one of the others? Why? (and there needs to be a reason if you do vote for yourself and not "duh, so I can win" haha)
This i tough one... because i do believe we all played very different games... but we also all played a good game. Its all on the preference of the voter. I would vote for myself because I was the underdog. I pulled off a huge comeback and No one really saw it coming... you always cheer for the underdogs and that was me.
