The Fabulous John Carroll

[John Carroll]

Hi kids! Congrats on making F3 As bitter as I was, it doesn't matter b/c the bottom line is that you made it a lot farther than me.

Holy cow, I haven't been a juror in like 2 years...

Anywho, that's not important. I do have some questions for y'all.

Austin I think I talked to you like once. Also, waaaaaay back when, you voted me out instead of Ashley. Realistically, I have no idea what you did in this game. I want to know your top 3 moves that got you to this point and if you could have any 2 people next to you, who would it be?

Fabio I'm also not quite sure what you did in this game... I want you to tell me how (starting with me) you had an effect in each juror's placement .

Sierra I'm on Team Sierra, but that doesn't mean that you completely have my vote. My question is who was most satisfying to get voted out?

That's pretty much it. I think. I'm not even sure I'm so rusty at being a juror! Answer those questions... go!

Good luck you guys

[Austin Carty]

Hey John,

First off the reason we didn't talk so much is that you weren't on AIM a lot, which is where I like to do most of my talking. You didn't fit into any preliminary plans, and I'm not the person who lies to anyone. Didn't wanna get your hopes up buddy.

So my best move I think was working with Sierra. She was a great advocate for me in the game. Also, my second move that brought me here was winning that infividual immunity in my last aarde TC. Darrah and JT had a strong connection, and I wouldve been destroyed had I not been immune. Thirdly, my ability to adapt to any situation was key. People wanted me out, but when someone came to me-told me I was bein voted out but they wanted to vote someone elsen I went with it. No questions needed. Hope this along with my other answers help you.

[Sierra Reed]

who was most satisfying to get voted out?


Well even though I had the most fear for JT, As in worrying that he would be able to get me out, I never really voted him so I can't say that was a satisfying vote-out.


So I'd have to say Monica. I was with you and her earlier than I was with anyone else. I made an alliance with you both in the same round, I think on the same day... Gladly you two said you liked eachother, so there was no problem that I could see in making these two alliances. I figured someday they would come together.

I never got to talk to you as much as I got to talk to Monica, so, after not too long she became my main ally. I also picked up Rob shortly after you guys but him and I never really were that close of partners until you were out and Monica was out


Anyway, this all means I was working with Monica the closest. In fact I told her most of the stuff I knew, like when I learned about Rob's HII (which everyone knew about as soon as I told Monica BTW LOL). At one point I have her my nullifier, and tried to give her my double vote but I wasn't allowed to give out my confessional prize. I shared with her my HII clues that I got, despite her only sharing one with me. And I wanted her and I in the end, and did everything I could to make that happen, untill I found out that she had come into this game With Stephenie and Fabio (Fabio may have just been with her through Steph, I am not sure, point is it was a strong 3 person pre-game alliance).

This pretty much broke my heart, or my heart as sierra anyway


I'd been getting more and more suspicious about Monica, for some time... ever since she wanted to kidnap Austin and risk me going home to keep Fabio and Steph safe in the round when Heidi left and then the round when you left. Also, JT had done some alluding to them being together untill the end. Ever since then, I knew she wasn't with me as much as she was with them, but then I actually got proof from Fabio that she was actively working to get me blindsided (in the round when Brett left, I would have been targetted had I not won immunity, and in the following round I would have been targetting again had I not leaked my idol-possession and scared everyone into thinking I was using it). When I got this proof from Fabio, I felt so betrayed, because of everything I'd given up throughout the game. I'd earned this reputation as a major loud mouth by bringing everything back to Monica and having her tell all her real allies whatever I gave to her... I gave her my trust, my rewards, my clues, my everything, and she was just using me from day 1.



So... therefore, I'd have to say that Monica was my most satisfying vote. She came in with the odds stakced in her favor (actually all 3 of the mdid, Steph, Monica, and Fabio), had a game-plan on how and when to get rid of me for the entire time, was walking me to my certain doom and then all of a sudden, totally unexpectedly... I got the better of her. As she lunged out to grab me and snap my neck, I managed to do it to her first







Oh and in second place for my most satisfying vote, would be Brett, cause he also wanted me out more than anyone else at the time. However, I still really like Brett and I really respect Brett and there's no hard feelings there, from me, whatsoever... So it's just not as emotionally satisfying, getting him out, as it was with Monica.







Thnx for the awesome question John! And thnx for giving me some support... I really can't see myself getting very much of that, considering most people here were already friends with either Fabio or Austin, I just appreciate any kind words I can get!!!



Luv ya John!!!!!!!

"Fabio I'm also not quite sure what you did in this game... I want you to tell me how (starting with me) you had an effect in each juror's placement ."

Heidi- I formed a friendship with Sierra when we met on Weerlig and got her to help me vote off Heidi along with Steph.

John and JT: Not my doings there.

Jimmy: He always seemed to be on the outside this game no matter what he did. Jimmy stirred the pot to save himself and did manage to make a last minute change on Aarde to get Jenna blindsided over him, but everyone was suspicious of Jimmy after that. I went with the flow to vote off Jimmy.

Brett: I was sort of stuck with Sierra and Monica on one side and Brett and Boston Rob in the middle. I ended up voting Austin this round because I did not want to betray any of my friends at this point in the game and strategically, keeping a big target like Brett around keeps the heat off me.

Monica: Like Sierra said, she opened her big mouth and potentially turned Monica against me in the process. Monica had even tried to blindside that round, but when she couldnt get enough support to do so switched back to voting Austin. I convinced Boston Rob and Sierra to use their double votes on Monica by saying Steph was going to use her 2x nullifier to protect Monica, which she in fact did. I also got extra assurance by warning Austin about Monica's attempt to blindside him with a chat I copied and pasted, assuring his vote for Monica. In the end, I managed to get Monica gone and saved my double vote for use in the F5.

Steph: I intended on voting Austin off that round since Rob had immunity and he was the a perceived jury threat, but other felt Steph was more of a jury threat and paranoid of her connection to me in the game.

Boston Rob: As everyone well knows by now, I voted Boston Rob in part because he played a great game] and won several immunities in a row and because Monica had been trying to tell me he was a bigger threat than Austin, which only confirmed my suspicions, whether they were right or wrong only time will tell. Monica payed the ultimate price for trying to influence my vote.

I tried to play the social game as best I could and preserved myself by keeping bigger targets around which is the best I could do without a whole plethora of items at my disposal like Sierra, I didn't need Idols and vote changers and nullifiers to stay alive in this game because I don't have a big mouth to make me a big target. Hope that answers your question.

[John Carroll]

I appreciate all your answers.

Fabio, you're wrong about something. You had a much better chance of winning against Rob than Austin b/c I for one would never have voted for him and I would vote for any of you 3 and one vote can make all the difference.

Either way, thanks for your answers.

[Sierra Reed]

I agree, just for the record, that Boston Rob would have been easier to beat. But this was another case of Fabio not really thinking for himself, in my opinion, and letting Monica do that decision-making for him. In fact, right at the end of the tribal council, when we were casting our votes, he told he wanted to "trust his girls"... and then he went and voted Rob.


And one last thing... I gave all my rewards away that I was allowed to, and then used my final one, my idol, on someone else. You cannot honestly say I got here by having a plethora of rewards. I won a plethora of them and then gave them away to people who were out to get me, putting myself out there as a huge challenge threat and giving people extra ammo to get rid of that threat.


Thnx, sorry, I had to defend that

[Rob Mariano]

Just thought I would post something really quick after seeing Fabio's comments about me. I can back up what John and Sierra are saying here, I knew I wasn't gonna get John's vote no matter who I was up against, and yeah I do think I would have been a lot easier to beat in F3 than Austin, but what's done is done, and I hold no bitter feelings towards anyone over things that have happened in this game.

[Fabio Birza]

Yes thats what I heard after the fact, but whats done and done and I cant really know for sure what the jury was thinking, Hence why Monica was removed for that. I believe Boston Rob played a better physical and strategic game than Austin did and was surprised to hear that, it must be personal reasons I was unaware of. I have yet to understand what Austin did better than Boston Rob....

[Austin Carty]

I can count higher in 10 minutes than rob

[Darrah Johnson]

NO ONE MENTIONED ME!

[Fabio Birza]

I responded to that when I thought Heidi was on the jury. We were never on the same tribe so I can't take any credit for you going home Darrah
