Whitney is sad because Whitney doesn't have any idea who a couple of you are.
Papa Bear - I truly adore you and I never wanted to vote you that first time, so I was glad I missed the vote even though it put me in the minority for the rest of the game due to Ozzy & Jim's lies Anyway, love you lots, but you have a lot of people against you because you were voted out so no one wants to see you win. As of right now, you're the only one I'm willing to vote for.
I will say though, my vote is not set in stone.
Brandon & Rick, you both have the chance to win my vote by all the answers you give to all the jurors. I will be reading everyone's including Papa's and voting for the best player.
Brandon, you said something about your social game at merge in your opening statement and I think your social game was just to keep socializing with your original tribe mates because most of us on Savaii were left going HUH?
Rick, I like cowboys. Win my vote.

Hey Whitney!
Thanks for the kind words. I know there wasn't really a question to answer, but I did want to address one of the things you said.
I understand the skepticism about me winning the game considering I technically have already been voted out. And, trust me, it is not the path I would've chosen for myself either. In my perfect world, I would have been the leader of a key alliance that was responsible for sending person after person to Redemption Island. But I wasn't. Instead, I was forced to sit there day after day and wonder who would be coming my way next.
But Survivor is not a game that always let's you pick your path. Twists happen. Power shifts. People lie. What you can control is how you choose to take or not take those things in stride and not let them derail you from attempting to win the game. When the game is over and the confessionals open up, you will be able to see that right after I was voted out I was extremely down and out about my circumstances and couldn't believe it had actually happened. A part of me wanted to just throw up my hands and take my place as a jury member. But then, after thinking about it, I realized that someone was going to have to endure the disappointment of being sent to Redemption Island but enjoy the feeling of returning back into the game. And if someone was going to do it, it might as well have been me. I specifically wrote in my confessional that I refused to do final words because it wasn't my time to yet. I never let anything drain my determination; when I was down to my last life and my back was against the wall, I stepped up to the challenge and fought.
My road to the end was certainly not glamorous. But it was my road, and I played it the best way I knew how.

Brandon, you said something about your social game at merge in your opening statement and I think your social game was just to keep socializing with your original tribe mates because most of us on Savaii were left going HUH?Whut? What I did say at my opening statement was I TRIED to be more aggressive come merge because I have to step up my game. About my social game, I admit that I never had the chance to talk with everyone on Savaii because the plan was to vote all Savaii member first, but that never happened. Still, I did not pursue on making deals with any Savaii members because if I flip, I'm gonna be voted out. That's a risk on my part. C'mon, would you keep me until the end if I decide to go with you? Definitely, not! So I think I made the right choice. Thanks!

I said socializing not deal making lol A social game is just as important as challenges and strategy when it comes to Survivor. To win my vote I have to know who I'm voting for. And I never got to know you. *shrugs*
