LOL true to form ... a perfect plan is ruined!! I'm not even getting worked up about it, because it was the smartest thing for them to do, and they realised at the right time, and took BJ out of the game, so although I'm annoyed, I can't get bitter towards Rudy for doing so. However ...
He had to make a comment at TC insinuating I am untrustworthy, which was untrue as I never made any deals with him, so of course I started and defended myself. He started throwing insults, lies, untrue comments, deals that were never made and all to try and make me out to be a liar and untrustworthy to the jury ... I was shocked he'd try and do that to me, and I was pissed off too, especially as what he said was BS. I contradicted everything he had to say, he then contradicted himself, I'd like to think that I made him look completely stupid, especially in the thread at camp, because it was no more than he deserved especially after what he'd said at camp. I respected Rudy always, but when he brought personal problems into it and said about health, blah blah blah as a reason for not replying straight away when I'd already said I was willing to drop it if he was, I lost some respect for him. My life and my health right now is far from perfect but I wouldn't dare bring that into an online game and try and make somebody feel guilty. He messaged me telling me he was done after I'd made him look like a fool at camp, and I said fair enough, I was willing to drop it, then he made a further comment at camp ... I don't understand what he was trying to achieve but whatever. The annoying thing is, the only thing I have done 'wrong' to Rudy this entire game was to attempt to play him this round and use him for a vote, I even risked my place in this game so I didn't have to lie to him. All he needed was me to tell him I was going to the end with him and then he'd have voted with me, but because of the type of person and player I am, and the respect I had for Rudy, I weren't willing to lie to Rudy. I suppose you learn more about people's personalities when you play with them more.
As for James, his lack of loyalty just irritated me, I saved him, I do believe I saved him from 12th and 10th place, by getting Steph to give immunity to him, and by getting the votes for Ozzy, so I was annoyed that loyalty meant nothing to him, and his excuse was pathetic.
Steph played it smart and by voting how she did, put herself in a power position for the next round at least. The cards are in her hands, and depends whether now Rudy has immunity [round 15] as to if she's going to vote out James or myself. She told me her reasons for boting BJ and they were completely understandable, I just didn't like the hypocrisy as she said to me 'Kathy's voting me ' and then goes and voted BJ, I didn't like that. However, she did tell me she wanted Rudy gone and had no intentions of going to the F3 with him, but now Rudy has immunity, I just need to convince her to vote James, otherwise I'm going home.
For the first time I feel completely powerless, and it's not nice. I love being in control and right now I don't have any, for once my fate is being decided by Steph ... hopefully she'll pull through and go with me and Kathy, if not, I can't really be too disapointed, I believe I've played an amazing game so far. I don't even necesarily regret anything, yeah not lying to Rudy to convince him I was with him may have cost me my game, so in a sense I regret that, but then that goes against the type of person and player I am, I like to pride my game on being powerful, social, yet honest. I do believe you can make it to the end without lying to people. Yet the irony is, that lie would have probably annoyed them less than some of the things I've said to the jury ... I know I've got a big mouth and can insult people, but I only give it if they deserve it LOL.
I suppose time will tell, this will either by a victory for me or another case of "great game but 4/5th place". But what can ya do?
