Brenda: Three older women started this game, two of which were out in the early stages. You're the last one left. Has being an older woman been a blessing or hindrance in this game, in your opinion? Explain. Now that we're merged, has your strategy changed in terms of who you vote out?I'm sorry ... but did you just call me old? My age has nothing to do with my performance in this game. It’s about as relevant to the game as the colour socks I’m wearing right now (blue), or whether my shoes are laced up correctly. (They aren’t) So it’s been neither … a blessing (good lord … is being old a blessing?) or a hindrance …. (Seriously I wonder about men sometimes). What I feel has helped me the most in this game is my life experiences, which I think is where you were headed with this question before you decided to call me old. I’m not a naturally social person (shocker … I know). I don’t usually speak up unless I have something worth saying and most of the time I’m content to sit back and watch what’s going on around me. This helps me immensely in ORGs because usually; people are talking for the sake of talking and no one really ever listens. I’m able to read situations fairly accurately and act accordingly. I’m quiet, and just like the quiet ones are always the serial killers next door, they’re also always the ones who tend to know what’s going on around them at any given moment. Knowledge helps me in this game … not my ancient age. Now that we’re merged has my strategy changed in terms of who I vote out? Honestly … No, not really. I think I touched on this last night. This game has pretty much always been an individual game, in that you controlled your own fate to a certain extent. How well you did and the effort you put into the game directly impacted your placement and level of security. It’s pretty much the same now just more individualized. As to whom gets voted out, the merge hasn’t changed that at all. On that note I need to go now because it’s probably time for the early bird buffet somewhere … and god knows I need to be home in time to watch my Matlock. What is my favorite memory/experience in the game so far?Winning the drawing challenge, it’s always nice when my creativity comes in useful. Name one person left in the game who is in the best position to win and why?I’d say me, but at my advanced age I’ll probably be dead before this game is over .. I guess Animal – he’s intelligent and he knows how to make moves and be quiet about it. Plus he’s a likeable guy so he probably doesn’t have many negative feelings in the jury. I don’t think this comes into play as far as voting right now, well not for me at least. What are my thoughts on the untouchables?
Would UGH … suffice? It’s first and foremost in my mind at the moment.

I do what I can to do what is best for me in these games. Other people might not think what I am doing is what I consider my own personal gain, but they don't know everything, either. That being said, I also vote based off of allegiances. I just try to make sure that I combine both those aspects, as that makes things quite a bit easier. I am at a constant battle with my heart when it comes to ORGs, because I really don't like hurting people who I don't think want to hurt me. It's been a detriment to me many, many times in the past. In general, I tend to go more with my head these days. But, again, I try to combine both of these.
I feel like so far, everyone's answer to this has been, "That time I won challenge x!" Honestly, I'm not sure. I don't wanna cop out with this and be like, "Meeting all these wonderful people!" This game has been stress for me since about day one, so I'm not sure I've ever had a moment to myself to actually just sit, relax, and enjoy the damn thing. I guess if I had to say anything, I would say Ricky's drawing of Animal in that one challenge, because it made me laugh really fucking hard.
Brookie, because of her fierce, competitive spirit, selfless attitude, and her ambition; when she sets goals, she accomplishes them.
J/k lolz she was useless.
I guess I would say Woods, because he definitely has a "story." He was voted out, returned, and essentially got his revenge (so far, more or less). He went from being in a shitty position to a pretty good one. Plus, with how good he is at challenges, it's possible he could just steamroll us in them going forward!
I think my thoughts on how I feel about the Untouchables is pretty clear based on me having swapped my rupees with Nax. I certainly didn't want to leave my fate in this game up to whether or not I could not be last in a challenge, no matter how good the odds might have been in my favour. As you can see, I haven't exactly been the challenge THRAT I was in Bali. As of right now, no, I am not concerned it will affect my game, unless you worded that dickishly and it's actually the people with the most rupees going to exile. In which case, you are a bitch.

You know what Sandros? You cann kiiiissssssss mmmmyyyyyyy aaaassssssssssssss <3 Thats why i purposely made sure I was the last person to answer your questions. For the most part, I have been definitely taking this game day by day due to the constant changes going on with everyone AND myself. However, I have recently started looking towards the future and trying to figure out what I can do now to ensure myself safety down the line. It's very clear that the numbers are quickly dwindling and if you don't have SOME course of action, your behind will be left out of the cold reaaaalll fast.
I actually think my favorite memory from this game was the very first night when like EVERYONE got on skype and was talking. There was so much energy and everyone was so fun and crazy. It was before the stress of the game had really set in and we all talked freely like a big ole happy family. I miss getting to do that *tear*
So I hate to be a copycat in this answer, but that sort of happens when you go last, but i think Woods is really in a great spot right now. The guy can win an immunity challenge like nobody's business and if he keeps up on his streak, he's gonna steamroll his way to the end. Plus, he will also be seen as like an underdog story since he did go to redemption cove and came back strong. I'm sure it's in the back of some people's heads when voting but i don't know if its the driving motivation right now....if that makes any sense >_>
The Uncrustables? Uggh, I'm trying not to worry about that currently since I was a greedy bitch and held on to my monies. Hopefully it doesn't come back and bite me in the ass :3
