Helen, you were an incredibly dominant force in this game. From day 1 on Helios you proved to be very involved and incredibly methodical. Do you think that your quirky way of overanalyzing everything time and time again hurt you in the game or helped you make it to the final 3 and potentially win? Obviously it didn't affect you too much, lol, but maybe it did separate you from some of the players because you were at jeopardy a lot of times towards the end.

As players have the opportunity to go through my confessional later, they'll potentially see (in addition to how godawfully verbose I am) how detailed I went into analyzing positions and strategies and the likelihoods of different outcomes.

I think both of your observations are spot-on. My OCD analytical "quirks" were certainly an asset to me working out strategies to get to the end, but also, preparing for and eventually winning the final four ICs. But my "quirks" certainly weren't a secret from anyone that had discussions with me, so that's absolutely a reason why it was wise of them to put a bullseye on my head.

To the members of Loser's Lodge, who were you rooting for?

This question goes out to all of Shawna, Daniel and Ryan. You three showed up late to your tribe, and I really didn't think you had any shot at this game and I think you guys all started to learn incredibly quickly how this game was played. None of you had played anything like this before and I think there is a learning curve. If you had the chance to do it again, what would you do differently?

I would have tried harder to get my ideas across, looking at the end result that was more i could have offered my tribe but i was too passive and paid the price for it.

I actually have a question for you, Shawna- do you regret voting out Ryan and Jeanne, knowing how the game played out?

I didn't vote out Jeanne!

And i always wanted to work with Ryan but he was all over the place so in the end i thought it would be better to let him go, but it was a hard decision because i liked him.

I'm still not 100% sure things would have gone any better if he had stayed.

For me different people at different times. Would have enjoyed a number of different winners.

Let's talk about two of the biggest characters this season that could not make it here for two very different reasons.

The first is Ted. Ted is no doubt the most polarizing character this season. I personally found his flip flopping as the most intriguing strategy I had ever seen on Stranded ever... I cannot believed it worked so many times.

Brian, I actually think you were one of hte main reasons Ted ended up going when he did. Talk me through that a bit.

Erin, what were you feeling when he first mutinied, did you think that Helios was done for?

Christy, did you fully trust Ted?

Joanna, What were you feeling when he turned on you guys in the merger?

The two people I rooted for, were Helen, and Penny.

Helen, because I thought she was playing a pretty good game.

Penny, because she was an entertaining player.

*comes in waving and jumping like an idiot*

Aw thanks Jeff icon_wub

Um i definatly wanted to play the game, this is kinda like a once in a lifetime oppurtunity, i knew i won't be the most active and best at challenges so i tried my hardest to socialise with some of the players, just random side conversations. My head wasn't really in the game, and i kinda regret it i should of of thone better when it comes to making deals and stuff. But i had alot of fun specially in the Loser Lodge icon_mml

and yeah i'm just naturaly ditzy icon_wacko

Helen (Brian at points too). And from the merge, Helios in general.
But I also loved Joanna and Christy. Christy you pulling out the idol was my favorite moment all season (sorry erin icon_weep

), and Joanna you are one of the funniest people I've ever "met"

If Jeanne arrives later and reads back, I am curious as to what you might have done had Ted left instead of you that night. Would you have stayed loyal to Shawna & Asteria, or would you have wanted Rob out so bad you would have considered flipping to Helios to do so?

I knew he would do it and I was a complete idiot for not voting for Jeanne to stay. I just really didn't want to ostracize Christy/Rob going into the merge but it would have been worth it looking back because I know they both would have still worked with me.
