Kim P's Statement

[Kim Powers]

Well....

I thought long and hard of what to say...

but I think that a former survivor hit my feelings towards the final two exactly on the head...

So i'm just gonna put my own twist on her words...





Brandon, I was your friend at the beginning of this, really thinking that you were a true friend.

As the game wore on and the two tribes merged, you lied to me, which showed me the true person you are. You're two faced and manipulative to get anywhere you are at in life. That's why you fail all the time in life. You talk about how badly you want to win these games and you'd do anything to win... Which sounds very familiar to me.. Cause I used to be that person too.. but then something changed... I started going to church...

I know what your thinking.. I had a revelation of spirituality and started wanting to play these games more clean... Well.. you'd be wrong.

What changed is I made new friends, and I started doing more things outside of the internet and these games, and I stopped being a failure in life. Now I realize at this point you are still a nerd who has nothing better to do then pop his pimples while sitting at a computer screen, making up stories of playing rugby to try and sound tough, and I pity that and hope you can overcome that pile of shit you call a life some day.

Brandon, You will not get my vote. My vote will go to Linda. And I hope that is the one vote that makes you lose the game. If it's not, so be it. I'll shake your hand and go on from here.

But if I would ever pass you along in life and you are laying there dying of thirst, I would not give you a drink of water. I would let the vultures take you and do whatever they want with you with no ill regrets.

I plead to the jury tonight to think a little bit of the island we have been on . This island is full of, pretty much, only two things - snakes and rats. And in the end of Mother Nature, we have Linda The Snake, who knowingly went after prey; and Brandon, who turned into the rat that ran around like rats do on this island, trying to run from the snake. I believe we owe it to the african spirits we have come to know to let it end in the way that Mother Nature intended: For the snake to eat the rat.

Ahh well just what i was expecting you to say.

HOWEVER, i would have to say you are very wrong in this situation there are many times were i can recall linda comign to me for advice on what move would be best for her and how it would help her get further, im the one who ran the show around here, now it may have seemed i was a immunity whore and did nothing butwin those. but you know what i just took pride in what i did. also how can i be an immunity whore if the others don't try in challenges? the only one in this game who i believe had a shot to beat me in challenges was Jessie/Diane...

you also don't think i played a social game from what i hear?

tell me how can not know who can be trust going into the merge? i knew tom was a threat and got him out first... in the challenge where we had to determine who said what i used my knowledge on what i knew others talked like and how they felt on the game to determine who said it, and the only way i could gain that knowledge is by talking and learning about my competition.

you also don't think i played strategically? i played a far more strategic game than her, im the one who got you,silas,frank,tom,jessie,carl, all to be voted off this game. i even had a huge part in linda's vote to vote out KIM J. when she came to me to ask should i vote off teresa or kim j, and i ran the situation as for what was best for me. and got kim j voted off.



you are all under this impression that she played a genious game, well im sorry to let you know. im the one who basically ran the game, i used her and teresa to my advatage to do all my work, she didnt play this honest game that all of you think she played. she played just as dirty as me but tried to kiss ass while she did it. have you read her opening speech? she is basically kissing your ass for a vote. she lied just as much as me, remeber in the swap? she could have easily went with the borans ON MY COMMAND. to vote off teresa. so yeah

i will not deny that you know what i lied alot but diane even said it if you don't get this kid out then he is going to make it to the end. and well i did it. the round you left you had the perfect chance to get me out, i had no immunity i was on the verge of being voted off. but you left and i stayed, i convinced linda and teresa that i wasn't a threat and got them to fall for my tricks ROUND after ROUND.

the way i see it my game may have had a few flaw's but everypnes did and if your going to persecute me for backstabbing than so be it,

im not going to respond to the personal attack you left me however.

or maybe Linda played you like a fool and let you take all the heat off her? ;-)

I think that's more then likely what happened...

I know that Linda isn't the newbie first gamer like she was playing up.. I know she has the ability to run a game and I think she played it up to you to make you feel like you were doing more then you really were and played it up to the rest of us to take heat off her and put it on you.
