Welcome, Flicka!

[Jeff Varner]

You played with such spunk that real life Flicka would be proud. I feel like you have a lot on your chest that you want to get out so let's hear it!

Welcome to Ponderosa, by the way!

[Stephannie]

girl you were so genuine and truly kind... refreshing given the people who are left in the game.
PERFECT rep for you as well.

Sad to see you go, but one more person in Ponderosa to chat with

[Flicka]

STEPHANNIE! I'M SO GLAD I GET TO TALK WITH YOU AGAIN, GIRL!

[Stephannie]

a lot go down after I left?

[Flicka]

Yes and no. It became clear who was with who, so it was seven against four. It seemed like it was going to be me or Liliana. Cecilia started making some deals with me, but she kept talking to me very condescendingly to the point where I was just like, "fuck this, I'm not doing anything you tell me to, even if it furthers my game". She kept talking to me and Liliana just basically telling us we're going to be next. Liliana wasn't quite as graceful when letting her feelings be known at tribal council, but trust me, I was feeling everything she was tonight. Rebecca logged in for like 5 minutes since last tribal council, so I just pretty much gave up working with her because she just wasn't reliable enough to work with, so it was pretty much seven against three. I talked with everyone trying to make deals, but they all just seem so set in keeping the seven together for some reason. It's so boring that they're just Pagonging us. Make some moves to earn people's respect for playing the game!

[Stephannie]

honestly I wouldn't be surprised if some people are just making the "safe" moves so that they can finish in a higher placement and don't care as much about actually winning or impacting the game.
A presumptuous thing for me to say, but it's the impression I got after watching this round.

I never told you this because Cecilia was supposed to be my "secret weapon" ally that nobody knew about (lol at how that turned out) but she had you pegged as someone she didn't like from the very first day and kept it in her mind that "you weren't playing the game" because you sent her short PM's in round 1.

I feel like because of that she stayed with blinders on and didn't put any effort into changing her view on you, which would explain all the rude messages.

[Flicka]

Oh, there are definitely people that are just going along with what the big players are telling them to do because it'll get them further. But there's no point in making it far in the game, if you didn't make any moves yourself or leave any kind of impact. I wanted to make an impact on the game, and I'd like to think I did, but maybe that's a little bit of self delusion on my part. But I think I told you that I'd rather go out sooner with people I like than go further with people I don't.

I don't understand Cecilia. I really don't. She made assumptions about me based on PMs in the very beginning when we were all still figuring out how the game works and held that to me until she voted for me tonight. She mentioned in her vote that I wasn't playing the game and that I was socially terrible or something along those lines. Just because I didn't talk a lot with you doesn't mean I'm socially a poor player. I talked with nearly everyone except for her because of the way she talked to me. She says I wasn't playing well and that I was dumb but turns right around and says I'm a huge threat because I found the hidden immunity idol so I must be smart. Well... which am I? Dumb or smart? I have a feeling she was just saying anything to get me out.

[Flicka]

Also, I may be wrong but I think I'm the first unanimous vote of the season! What an honor! Hahaha!

[Stephannie]

One thing is that first impressions can hold a lot of weight sometimes
Don't hate me, but before we started working together I said mean things about you in my confessional because of the short-PM's thing. In the first couple days you did give off a vibe that you didn't know what you were doing so I was like "omg I'm on a tribe with Flicka and Rebecca after this swap! People I don't want to work with!" and of course I feel AWFUL now about saying those things in my confessional , but just giving context on Cecilia's outlook/attitude I think, since she hadn't met you since those first couple of days.

But we started working together, and you went from someone I wasn't working with to my #1 friend/ally in the game. I definitely think it's about giving people the chance. Not everyone is going to be sending 4-paragraph long PM's on day 1 of the game, and I think Cecilia needs to realize that.

But ya I think she just took her day 1 impression of you and applied it to the game now even though you've accomplished a lot since then. But the question also is: if she had all those negative things to say about your game, she wouldn't want to vote you out this round.

[Stephannie]

Also, I may be wrong but I think I'm the first unanimous vote of the season! What an honor! Hahaha!

hah, don't worry about that. It's all part of the game

[Flicka]

I can understand that because a few people have told me that my PMs were short, so I'm not denying that. That probably would have changed had we not had to people quit before anyone went to tribal because we were only on the same tribe for like, what was it, three days or something? If we stayed together even a day or two longer, it would probably be different. BUT! That's not what happened, is it?

Although I don't think I ever said anything about you in my confessionals, I did want to flip on you and Rebecca the second we got to Svinoy 2.0 because I was ranked 7/9 on our tribe, although, thinking about it now, that was probably because of my PMs (dur!). But after taking a second to think about it, I was like, "Maybe it's better for me to stick with these two" and as I talked more with you and Rebecca, I was like, "these are the people I want to work with". It really is weird how looking back to those first few hours on Svinoy 2.0 and how I wanted to vote you and Rebecca out and you two ended up being my closest allies. AND how I wanted nothing more than to get rid of Liliana back then too, but she ALSO became one of my closest allies. It seems so long ago now! This game is frickin-frackin crazy.

Flicka, you did awesome and were one of my favorites for a long while. It sucks that you got the boot but you should be proud of how far you've come. You showed a lot of growth in such a short amount of time.

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much, Kimmi! I feel like I have grown from a little baby Flicka to giant Flickasaurus Rex! That's so sweet of you.

[Trashley Markwood]

OMG FLICKA NO :(

OMG FLICKA NO :(

I know, right? This sucks. I should be in there still doing Flicka stuff.
