May as well get this party started. But first, I have two quick things I want to say before I get to my questions:
First of all, congratulations to you both (Boy Power. Look into it). You both played respectable games and I feel like you are down to earth, mature, and friendly. Good job.
Second of all, congratulations to Sarah for having her title of “biggest game ending blunder in Warzone history” taken away from her. After Sarah threw away her game in season 2 by evicting me, I didn't think she would ever lose this title. Turns out, I was wrong.
That means, Roddy - congratulations. With one move, you are the new “head of stupid”. Sarah, please hand over the key to Roddy.
I mean, really, Roddy? Taking Eddie to the final 2? Really?
Roddy, you played a slightly under the radar, yet very solid game this season. You would have made a fine winner, and you were one sentence away from winning this game. All you had to say was “I vote to evict Eddie”, and the game would have been yours without question.
I'm not saying that you're sure to lose now, but it's definitely not so cut and dry. The vote is up in the air and either one of you could win this game. Frankly, I feel like one of you played a better game overall, but after your opening statements, the other one of you impressed me much more in explaining his strategy. So my vote is up in the air. Basically, I'll be listening carefully to both of you and your answer to my questions will help determine how I vote. I'm gonna make you work. Let's do this:
Roddy: I get that loyalty is important to you, and I respect that. But at what point does loyalty become more important that winning? As far as I saw, Lydia was your number 1 alliance here and if you had chosen to lose to her, that's somewhat understandable. But Eddie? Were you guys really that close? If the final three had been you, Eddie and Lydia, who would you have brought to the finals with you? And what was the strategic benefit to you in evicting Sarah?
Also, since I suspect you're about to go on a tangent about how “loyalty is so important”, then please explain to me why you found it acceptable to throw Lydia under the bus to not only me, but to other people in the house as well? I mean...we all know that you expected to outlast her in the game.
Eddie: Don't feel left out... I have an award for you too. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that in a house of liars and back-stabbers, you probably hold the record this season. From where I sit, you were the biggest liar in the game. Do you agree with that statement? Why or why not? Which of your many lies are you most proud of? Which lie do you most regret?
Also, if you had won the final 3 HOH competition, would you have made the same stupid mistake as Roddy or are you smarter than that?
And lastly, my questions for both of you. Let me be clear – if you give me more than one name for any of the following questions, you won't get my vote. Pick one person and explain why you chose them, please.
1. Who in the house were you closest to on a personal level?
2. Let's pretend for a bit: you're now on the jury, and the jury members are now the finalists. Your vote decides who wins the game. Which jury member would you vote for to win? Why?
3. Replace your final 2 opponent with anyone from the jury. Who would you most like to be sitting next to, other than your current opponent. Why?
4. And lastly, since this is All Stars, and a celebration of seasons past – I'm gong to ask a question that I asked during my season 2 jury session: Which jury member was the easiest for you to manipulate in this game. Give an example of when you manipulated that person the most.
Thank you both. Again, congratulations on getting to the end. You earned it.
