Lex Question

[Lex van den Berghe]

Hey guys just want to say good job making the finals and for making this game fun. My vote is totally up in the air right now as to who i want to win

My question is, tell me why you think you deserve to win over the person sitting next to you?

Next if you could choose 2 other people from the jury to be sitting here instead of you who would it be and why?

I bthink I deserve to win over Sugar because I worked to get here. I played this game, making moves to get here. I made moves. I won challenges. All of which can be seen in Matt's answers. Sugar, though I love her...said her biggest moves were getting to know people (which I did as well)...and coming close to winning challenges. She didn't make any moves, didn't win any challenges and twice in this game I saved her.

Matt & You. It would be a tough call with Brett in the mix, but Matt was a beast all game and I always find under dog stories like yours impressive. So that's who and why.

First of all, I'd like to implore Coby to read a little clearer! I said getting to know people was one of my big game moves, because it's the only one I can actually solely take credit for. Coby says he was the one who put the seed of voting Rob out into people, which is a bit egotistical. I adore him and he's someone I'll probably be talking to long after this, but that's a little silly considering Matt and I were talking about the merge before we even had to vote Gina out.

I think I deserve to win over him because I didn't make up unnecessary lies to get to where I am, as opposed to him dragging Christine/John/Julie's name around in the dirt for no real reason. I didn't burn bridges with people or backstab anyone. For him to say that he 'saved' me is a little silly, considering you were the swing vote that saved me, Lex.

There's also the fact that Coby /came/ to me a lot of the time when he wanted to know who to vote out:

Hey hun! So Matt is voting Lex and Lex is voting Matt. Who would you like to vote? Both are end game threats so I don't care.

As an example. So while my moves weren't always out there and in everyone's faces, I was able to keep my hand on the pulse of the game without backstabbing people.

Next if you could choose 2 other people from the jury to be sitting here instead of you who would it be and why?

Oh gosh, that's really hard. I honestly think Matt fought so hard the entire game and really deserves to be in the finals, he basically had the game won the minute he joined XD. The second spot is a toss-up between Brett and you, Brett was very sweet to me all game and really stood by my side during votes and you managed to fanangle your way into the final four when your fate was basically decided pre-merge, which is amazing.

If you & Matt did indeed talk of getting Rob out before merge...you never spoke about it outside of you two and I'd have no way of knowing about it. I simply stated what moves I made and what I saw as a result. I did go out of my way to make Robt look more of a threat than he was and up until that point NOBODY had EVER mentioned his name to ME. So whether it put the seeds of such a goal in people's heads...or opened people's eyes that I'd be on board...it still worked to my benefit. I never claimed sole credit for his elimination nor is me telling what I did and what results I saw from MY perspective egotistical.

Also, I didn't drag ANYONE'S name in the dirt. The moves I made are being greatly exaggerated into negativity. I led Christine to believe I was on board with voting you out. I didn't create the idea myself; I pushed it along after SHE had come to ME about it. And when I made my move to go against them & I didn't insult anyone or anything like that. I simply revealed the plan. Did John or Julie ever come to ME and talk about voting Sugar out? No. Did I lie about that? Yes. However, I didn't pop it out of thin air. When Lex came to me he told me it was JOHN who told him about the vote...and Christine told me she had Julie in on the vote.

As far as me saying I saved you TWICE...I wasn't even talking about that move. I was referring to when I chose to eliminate John over you in the F6 and again in the F3 when I chose to eliminate Matt over you. Let's say I was talking about that move though...you forget I too was a swing vote in that TC. I could have just as easily sided with Christine/John/Julie who I had already told I would. Even still I could count the F4 when Lex and I had discussed blindsiding Matt. He brought up the idea of voting you to ensure we'd win a tie. It was my choice not to go with it.

I NEVER came to you to decide who to vote out. The example you gave...I only asked who you were voting because at the same time Lex and I were discussing blindsiding Matt. I asked who you were voting so we'd know what to expect and to see what the odds of you going against Matt would be. Nothing more.

I should win because I made moves in this game to get us here. The only thing you yourself have said that you did in this game was befriend people. You've been answering the questions downgrading mine instead of answering the questions to show your own triumphs.

Coby you were not the only one who made big moves in this game, So did Sugar, And is this maybe the Sign you are really fake? First being all nice to Sugar and noow TOTALLY Throwing her under the bus. If you havent seen what I wrote by Julie's thread there is the Continue of this post

[Coby Archa]

I never said I was the only one to make moves. I was asked what moves I made. ME. I wasn't asked what moves other people made or I'd have listed them cause plenty of people made moves and I'll give full credit where it's due. Where is there a sign of being fake? That doesn't even make sense! I never threw Sugar under any bus. I defended myself when SHE insulted MY game in this very thread.

[John Carroll]

Hmmm... I havent seen that she has insulted you here.

[Coby Archa]

Then our definitions of insulting differ greatly.
