Steph's Stuff

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

Firstly, Congrats on top 2! U2!

Secondly, I will actually be asking you questions unlike those others.

First I'll ask you questions individually, then questions both of you can answer.

And just so you both know, I have no idea who I'm voting for yet.




Colby

I know you probably don't like me and you wouldn't be voting for me if I were up there instead of you. You claimed you were the one who got me out because of the whole karma thing.

So my question is...

Before I give your my side of the story on the whole karma thing, I would like to hear what you have to say about it? (Why you think I did it, Why you did it back, Did it make you target me, ect.)




Courtney

Okay Courtney, firstly your not getting much love in Ponderosa. Half the people there are saying you road coattails. But I was out too early in the game to even know if you did ride coattails the entire game or were actually controlling this game.

So my questions is...

Do you think you road coattails this game? Do you think you controlled the game? And most importantly I want a good, convincing, TRUTHFUL answer as to why.




Both


If you were a stereotype of a survivor player, what stereotype would you call your self? (E.g. power player, challenge whore, flirt ect.) Why?


Please rank the jury AND the top 2 (1 being the best - 11 being the worst) on there game play. With explanations.


If this series had an All-Stars (which I think it will) Who from this season do you think deserves to make it? Why?


If each member of the jury were a

a) Movie
b) Song
AND
c) TV Show

which movie, tv show and song would they be? Why? (Please give each jury member and top 2. 1 song, 1 movie and 1 tv show)


Please explain what part you took in voting each member of the jury out.

(E.g. Steph - I got people to target her. Because she's a b***.
Rob - I just voted for him because every one else was.)


If you compared yourself to someone from the actually survivor, who would you be? Why?


I want you both to get lippy. Please tell me why the person your up against DOESN'T deserve to win, or why I shouldn't vote for them.


Which is your favorite season of the actual show Survivor? Why?


Who is your favorite survivor contestant of all time? Why?


If you watch Survivor Samoa. Could you please tell me who you think will win? Why? (But if you actually know please no spoilers and don't even both with the question. If either of you spoil ANYTHING , even the smallest thing, about anything on the current or future survivor, I will not vote for you! And this goes for all the questions)


And lastly, who was responsible for voting me out? Who put the target on my back? And if you know could you please tell me why?

[Colby Donaldson]

Firstly, Congrats on top 2! U2!
Thanks Steph !


I know you probably don't like me and you wouldn't be voting for me if I were up there instead of you. You claimed you were the one who got me out because of the whole karma thing.
No,Steph!I DO LIKE YOU!First because you're not a bitter juror,you're smart and you're playing as Steph<3!I liked you even more when I knew who you really are!It's just that when I found out you were smiting me,I thought you knew me from other games and wanted to get me out!and no,I would have definitely given you a shot at my vote if you had been in the final!I would have asked you why you did that whole karma thing and given you a chance to explain yourself!I got you out because you were smiting me,which I thought meant you didn't like me and wanted me out!

Why you think I did it?
I think you don't like the real Colby!?because I just found out lately who you really are,and we never played any games together.I would have thought differently..like you didn't respect how I played,or my real personality in the org w'ere playing if that karma thing had started in the middle of the game!!!!but it actually started during the check-ins!

Why you did it back?
Just to let you know that I knew you're the one who was smiting me !

Did it make you target me
Yes it did.But not because you are SMITING me!The whole karma thing isn't something to base my vote on!!I was just scared you don't like me and you would be coming after me because smiting someone means you don't like that person,or you're trying to mess with them!so I wanted to get you out before it's too late!and I was right..because I received 3 votes at the tribal council you left!


---

If you were a stereotype of a survivor player, what stereotype would you call your self?
A strategic player!I played this game strategically since day 1!I used my social skills to benefit my strategic game,convince people to be on my side and switch the vote to somebody else rather than my allies.I was always making strategic moves.



Please rank the jury AND the top 2 (1 being the best - 11 being the worst) on there game play. With explanations.
1)Sugar - Sugar played a very strong game!She made moves when she needed to,everybody liked her,she was so strong at challenges and she always knew what was going on!so physically,socially and strategically..her game was very good!

2)Neleh - Neleh played a very strong social game.She was the social butterfly of the season!She was on good terms with everyone and no one wanted her gone,she had no enemies on the jury which made her a huge jury threat!

3)Matty - At the beginning of the merge,he was a very strong physical player!I always saw him as a threat!and he always made moves even if he had to turn on his original tribe.

4)Courtney - I think Courtney played a very good game.She survived 2 tie-breakers.She kind of laid low and didn't make alot of decisions or moves,which is why she didn't make any enemies on the jury.

5)Erinn - She's a very smart player!She always kept surviving the vote,and I don't think she would have been gone if Matty hadn't self-voted.

6)Amanda - She played a very strong game pre-merge,she was social and helped out tribe alot,but after the merge she kind of laid low.

7)Steph - I didn't get to see you playing since you went out early and we were on different tribes,but you looked like a huge threat.You were able to get 3 votes against me and I think you were gonna go far in the game if you stayed.

8)Rob - He was also out early at the beginning of the merge,but he's a very strong player.He tried to make moves and I think was playing a good social game.

9)Stephen - He was out early at the beginning of the merge,so he didn't have a chance to prove how good he could play.I'm sure he would have done good though,he's a very nice guy and I was so glad to meet him and be his tribe mate!

10)Ian - I didn't see him making any moves,and I didn't meet him pre-merge.So there is nothing to base my rank on!

If this series had an All-Stars (which I think it will) Who from this season do you think deserves to make it? Why?
I think the top 4 in my ranking.Sugar,Neleh,Matty & Courtney!Because I think the played the best!

If each member of the jury were a
a) Movie
b) Song
AND
c) TV Show
which movie, tv show and song would they be? Why? (Please give each jury member and top 2. 1 song, 1 movie and 1 tv show)
I'll answer this later.!

Please explain what part you took in voting each member of the jury out.
Stephen & Rob - Didn't rank them higher.
Steph - I convinced your tribe to turn on you because you were a threat and I knew you would be coming after me.
Ian - I convinced Matty & Neleh to vote for him,because he wasn't on my side.
Amanda - I didn't vote for her.So I didn't have a part in voting her out.
Sugar - She was a huge threat,she asked us to vote for her anyway.
Erinn - She never voted with me,she stopped talking to me..so the best thing for me was voting for her!
Neleh - I was the swing vote..I tied the vote between her & Courtney,because she was a jury threat!
Matty - Since I won the final immunity,I was the deciding vote!I honoured that me & Courtney have been together since Day 1,and went together through this tough journey till the end!Although I had a better chance against Matty,I decided to go the harder way!So I voted out Matty.

If you compared yourself to someone from the actually survivor, who would you be? Why?
J.T.
I think this season was pretty much similiar to Tocantins.Our tribe came to the merge down in numbers 6-3 and we were supposed to be the first 3 to go.However like J.T. , I tried to stirr things up and turn the other tribe on each other.We both played socially & strategically well! J.T. always made moves and decisions,he formed many alliances and broke them when he needed,we were both able to beat all the odds and make it to the end!he also won the last 3 immunity challenges which is ironically EXACTLY like me!

I want you both to get lippy. Please tell me why the person your up against DOESN'T deserve to win, or why I shouldn't vote for them.
I think Courtney doesn't deserve to win,just because she didn't make any moves.She wasn't making decisions.She laid low and relied more on me,which is easier than being the schemer and the one who is planning everything.She sat back and let me do all the diry work.

Which is your favorite season of the actual show Survivor? Why?
Micronesia!Very good season.I loved the blindsides,and how the women never gave up and were able to manipulate the men.It was so exciting to see 10 people coming back from seasons past and getting the chance to play again against 10 new people!I keep watching this season over and over again and I never get bored.

Who is your favorite survivor contestant of all time? Why?
Aras Baskauskas.He's the best contestant & winner !Very good strategic and physical player.He always kept surviving the vote despite being targeted for being a huge threat.He made the right moves,and the right deals in the right time with the right people!He was smart & was friends with everyone.He deserved the title 100%


If you watch Survivor Samoa. Could you please tell me who you think will win? Why?
I don't know anything or what will happen,I'll just predict!
I think Natalie will win,based on the alliances.If the 4 Foa Foas make it to the end by Shambo's help..Natalie won't be seen as a jury threat,and they might leave her thinking they could beat her!and I guess if she goes against one of the boys I think she would have a very good shot at winning[Specially Jaison,I think she can kick his ass in the final]

who was responsible for voting me out? Who put the target on my back? And if you know could you please tell me why?
I think me,Sugar & Matty.Because as I told you before,you were a threat to me and I knew you would be coming after me!and I was right,coz you got 3 votes against me!I knew from Sugar & Matty that they didn't trust you,so they opened a door for me to vote you out and keep the 3 Rarakus.

Thanks Steph.



;D

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

[Colby Donaldson]

You're welcome I enjoyed answering them ;D.I'm glad you liked Steph's animation,lulz.I found it in a game

Micronesia all the way <3

[Courtney Yates]

Thanks Stephanie.

Do you think you road coattails this game? Do you think you controlled the game? And most importantly I want a good, convincing, TRUTHFUL answer as to why.

I honestly don't believe I rode coattails. I was not dragged the entire game as that is kinda impossible in survivor. He needed me just as much as I needed him since we were in the minority. He could always count on my vote. Yes, he did come up with plans and take the leader role but I didn't really care who left as I've stated in other questions, everyone was kinda the same to me. I had my targets and I had my allies. I played a loyal, honest game and no I don't think I controlled the game.

If you were a stereotype of a survivor player, what stereotype would you call your self? (E.g. power player, challenge whore, flirt ect.) Why?

Under the radar. I guess people preceived me as weak and someone just there but underneath it all I am a strong player. I was able to show a glimpse of it when I won a few important challenges. I guess you could also say underdog since I doubt many expected me to be sitting here and I did overcome a lot.

Please rank the jury AND the top 2 (1 being the best - 11 being the worst) on there game play. With explanations.

I answered this in another jurors question.. so I'll just paste it again.

1. Matty – He positioned himself well [playing both sides] and good physically.
2. Neleh – A really good social game. I believe was good with the majority… Also strong in challenges which is where the physical strength comes into it.
3. Erinn – Another person who had good social game. She was well-liked.
4. Sugar – Good with her tribe. Could of made finals if she didn’t ask to quit.
5. Rob – Good socially [he had ties with the other tribe as well], physically and mentally. He left too early, would have been a force.
6. Ian – I didn’t really get to see much of Ian but I assume he was a strong member on his tribe and was somewhat liked.
7. Stephanie – I guess she was good physically since she was perceived as a threat. She was somewhat social… she did send me a PM which no one else from the other tribe did at the merge.
8. Stephen – He seemed to have some connections and was a strong member on our tribe.
9. Amanda – I don’t think she was social as I believe she only had ties with Colby and I. It didn’t seem like she was good at the physical side of the game either.

And since you ask for the top 2 to be included as well.. I would rank myself before Colby because I did play a somewhat social , competitive game. I was targeted and survived without pissing anyone off like Colby did.

If this series had an All-Stars (which I think it will) Who from this season do you think deserves to make it? Why?

I think the top 4 because I believe we all played the best games.

If each member of the jury were a

a) Movie
b) Song
AND
c) TV Show

which movie, tv show and song would they be? Why? (Please give each jury member and top 2. 1 song, 1 movie and 1 tv show)

Okay you want me to be honest... I just don't feel like answering this question as I really can't think at the moment. I've had my answers for the other questions for ages but haven't posted because I just can't bullshit with this one. I will just name my favourites from each category and you can take a pick lol

Movies: Mean Girls, She's The Man, Distrubia, The Hot Chick, Scream, Crossroads, Swimfan, White Chicks, Final Destination

TV Shows: Friends, One Tree Hill, The OC, Greys Anatomy, Skins, The Vampire Diaries, Melrose Place, The Office, Veronica Mars

Songs: Lights-Drive My Soul, Britney Spears-Gimme More, Britney Spears-Unusual You, Akon-Beautiful, David Guetta-Sexy b*** feat.Akon, Ke$ha-Tik Tok, Lights-The Listening, Lady Gaga-Starstruck, Lady Gaga-Monster

Please explain what part you took in voting each member of the jury out.

I had no part in voting out Stephen/Rob because they left due to the twist and no part in voting out Amanda or Matty. For everyone else; I didn’t care who left as anyone who wasn't aligned with me was a target so I never had a preference on who left. I was opened to voting out anyone if it meant me and my alliance were safe.

If you compared yourself to someone from the actually survivor, who would you be? Why?

Well I would compare myself to Parvati but I didn’t play my usual strategy in this game. Hmm… I honestly have no idea who I would compare myself too. Maybe Courtney? Lol She was in an alliance with Amanda/Todd like I was in one with Amanda/Colby. I believe our strategy was similar and how we are perceived.

I want you both to get lippy. Please tell me why the person your up against DOESN'T deserve to win, or why I shouldn't vote for them.

No offense to Colby but I think he comes across as if he controlled the entire game. He backstabbed too many people, although to get himself further it can be avoided.

Which is your favorite season of the actual show Survivor? Why?

I’m not a fan of survivor so I have only watched two seasons. So I only have two to choose from and that would be Micronesia. The other season I watched was China which I liked as well. Anyways I really enjoyed the female alliance which dominated the merge and loved the blindsides they were able to pull. *stirs pot* I would soooo love to be apart of that alliance.

Who is your favorite survivor contestant of all time? Why?

My favourite survivor is Parvati. She is the complete package. She isn't bad at competitions, like she did win that endurance but as you can see it wasn’t necessary for her to win competitions. Her social gameplay was amazing, she had herself covered from many different angles. She was involved in plans such as the blindside of Ozzy and all her hard work paid off with her winning the season.

If you watch Survivor Samoa. Could you please tell me who you think will win? Why?

As I mentioned in one of the questions above; I’m not really a fan of survivor so I haven’t watched Samoa. I cannot answer this question.

And lastly, who was responsible for voting me out? Who put the target on my back? And if you know could you please tell me why?

Well I was told by Colby that you weren't that liked on your tribe.. so I guess Colby and a few of your tribe members.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

Thnx Courtney and Colby

That definitely made my decision a clear one
