Both of these ladies finished the game strong, but for me, I feel as though one played from start to finish while one finally stopped dragging their feet close to the end. I'd be lying if I said I felt my mind wasn't already made up, but I'll try and think of one or two questions for them to answer and see if that changes anything for me.

I think they both played great games, but I think one is much more deserving of the title. We'll have to see if the jury questioning exposes any dirt, but I was in the game long enough and with enough allies that I think I generally know how this game went down.

Ivette You were supposed to be F2. Chima probably has my vote. Elissa's just mean. But maybe she can convince me

Haha thanks for the vote of confidence, Sam. Hindsight is 20/20, and I made what I thought were the right moves at the time, and I don't think I'd change them, but I probably should've tried to spearhead splitting up Chima/Eric BEFORE targeting you. I just knew you'd be a swing vote in a time when things were going to get very contentious.
By getting you out, I knew I could prove a point to anyone who said I didn't do anything by winning any competitions, and I could safely slip beneath the radar again after it was done. Unfortunately, the way things played out, I think I got too hung up on Elissa/Helen as a pair. I DID in some part of my heart believe they would turn on each other, but I didn't want to look like a fool for keeping a pre-game pair in the game.
Perhaps it was a bit of an emotional choice, because it opened the possibility to a Helen/Elissa f2, and I didn't want to see that. I wanted it to be unpredictable, and I didn't want two people defending the same gameplay to be at the end, if it couldn't be me.
Also, what Helen kept telling me was that she was loyal to me and Elissa. Always our names together. I felt I made the right move. I think Chima and I both knew that this HOH was for all the marbles.

Helen and Gina: Did you want Elissa in the final two? She said it was "obvious" to her that we all wanted to go to the final two with her, but I said for about three weeks straight I wanted her in fifth place because she's shady and I didn't know her as well as you two or Chima :3

Yeah, no. Helen maybe did, as that's her friend out of here, and she could've defeated her easily. But no, I never wanted Elissa there with me. I hardly ever spoke any with Elissa. I think I spoke to Boogie more than her, and maybe even Poopdeck. I never had any sort of trust with Elissa and found her expendable at the earliest convenience.

My goodness. Elissa really knows how to frame a story and give her own spin on things. It's somewhat convincing, but I don't buy it even in the slightest. To me, I feel that Helen was the player between she and Elissa. Elissa hardly did much at all. She labels this as being "low-key" and a part of her strategy .. well, isn't that just convenient?
I also don't appreciate her remarks about me going out and winning competitions and that being detrimental to my game. I knew that after the Nick eviction, people wanted my head on a platter because he and I were linked. I had to win, and then I had to win to take out the people I knew were 100% gunning for me, them being Boogie and Janelle. Everything I did was for a purpose and I wanted to put myself forth to the remaining players, like Ivette and Chima, in that they could use me to help advance themselves aswell. With that being said, it shows me that Elissa didn't really know what was going on entirely. If anything, Helen shared with her what she wanted to.
I mean, let's be real here? Who did we all talk to more? About the game? About personal ongoings? Helen or Elissa? I feel like it would be a resounding "Helen", correct?
I can't even look at Elissa as a sole player .. it has to be Helen and Elissa.

I agree that she knows how to frame a story. She's a good writer! But her line about how Chima would've taken any final two deal is pure bullshit just so she can draw a conclusion. Chima and I had a final two deal all right. It went something like this, after Helen's eviction:
Chima: SO WE'RE GOING TO THE FINAL TWO RIGHT? Ivette: ya duh
And both of us knew we just lied to each other. Chima isn't dumb.

Oh and from a personal level I resent her acting like Sam and Will's boots were her doing. Chima put the Will boot into motion 100% knowing I would hop on in an instant and I made my nominations as HOH at the final 7 all by my damn self.

We all agree that someone has to ask Chima to answer a question with proper capitalization or she doesn't get their vote, right? Or is that just too cruel?

Forgive me if I am cocky, but I am pretty sure that almost anyone from the final 6 could trump Elissa in the final 2 so long as they word their speech correctly. I mean, I may not be viewed as the strongest competitor, but I certainly think that Elissa is underestimating all of us. She just happened to single me out by saying I was the ideal final 2 partner for her.
(No offense Will and Sam, you'd be getting my vote against Elissa too for sure.

Nah, we might not have worked together at any real point in the game, but if you managed to hustle your way to the final two I'd find it hard to vote against you.

And the only way I'd vote against you is if Chima were in the end, and that's the honest truth. I can't think of any question worth asking Elissa.
