Well the results are in. I placed a solid 6th place. Though it was my first game and my expections were not all that high. As I went so long in the game without getting nommed I kinda wanted to make it to the final 5. As I played the game I had gotten one Key and I had alot of checks. When the vote came around to me, I picked my vote strategically and not based on who was "active". Towards the end of my nom day I felt as though I might be saved, but was discouraged because I was sure that either way I would be nommed again and most likely be evicted. But then, in the last two hours of the day, a key spawned and I got it first. People were all guessing who had the key and I remained silent. Eventually though I think that the smarter players figured out that IF I had the key, I would a shoe in for 2nd place (or at least 3rd). Plus the guy I was up against had the lowest stats. It would be better to let me go now, then to risk having to face me themselves. Smart choice, cant say I blame them. Once I got that second key I knew that I was either going to be in 6th or 2nd. Even though I got evicted I had a lot of fun and I actually was able to meet some cool people.
GL To the final 5, I have a blast playing with you guys. I really hope we can play again sometime.
Side Note: DiNom, I KNOW you voted for me. I simply dont imagine that you didnt know, or at least considered that I might have that last key. Well played my friend, well played.
-------> To those who may not already know. I said in my first blog that I was planning on making a post for each game that I play, and then another about its results. I am a BRAND new player to survivor/ Big Brother games of any type and on any site. With this in mind I hope you enjoy a view from a complete n00b experiences.
