Brooke Strucks’ Rite of Passage
Bobby Jon – my night in shinning – the one person in this game I have complete trust in. We do make a great pair I should say so myself. I hope I made you proud of the way I played this game and worked so diligently with you on this most amazing plan in org history. I know your new to these games and didn’t want to come off as a threat right away, so you worked in the background and stayed undercover for us to work this out. Nobody saw the magic you created and they way you magically worked with Cindy and me. Our alliance only flourished and grew stronger as we moved forward and followed the boot list. I know you were upset when it all changed when I approached you in the plan to get Billy out. You have to say, kudos to that. I think that is where I truly shocked you. I will give you credit, you were the main mastermind in getting our alliance to the end. I made myself a challenge whore and that put the target on me and off you. You stepped up and won when we needed you too. I/We did what we could to get to the finals and I am so proud of the game you played with me. I know you might have pissed some people off and told some lies, but in the long run and you really wanted people to know just how lethal your manipulation was working. It about drove you nuts that the attention was off you, but hey someone’s got to do the dirty work. Even when it came down to F5, you never had a doubt I would leave. Thanks for being there for me in and if we are in the final two, kudos to you and your cunning style.
Cindy – I didn’t get to know you until the mutiny merge. It has been great getting to know you and sharing this final 5 (Fab 5). We made it and it was a huge success in keeping it tight to the end. You stepped up your game towards the end when we needed you the most. You are very trustworthy and played this game with integrity. Don’t take me seriously when you hear that I have said you were least deserving to be in the final two, because it was only because you did play this game without having a target on your back. You were almost looked at as the sweet and innocent on in the bunch. I had no idea you would make a move and save me in the end and change it flip it around to vote Brandon out instead of me. I believe if it weren’t for you I wouldn’t be here in F4.
Jim – I would like to say some things regarding playing an org game. First of all you don’t bring past grudges into the game. It was a cheap ass strategy tactic and I didn’t appreciate it at all. You are young and wise, but still have a lot of growing up to do. Playing these games, you can defiantly lose your innocence in having to result to backstabbing/betrayal. We all do it in these games, it just what you have to do in order to get further in the game. Yes we did it! We had a true 5-way alliance and held it secret for the whole game. It was the most amazing plan. Cindy and Brandon thought it was our idea, it was really a plan Bobby Jon and I had orchestrated the first day we got on to three tribes. We never wanted the target on Bobby Jon, because people would target him if they knew he was the mastermind of the plan, well we all pretty much worked each side and it was a huge accomplishment to get this far without going against each other. We were all true to our alliance from day 3. Of course we had that secret F2, but I always had a doubt about you in the back of my mind you would turn on and get revenge. I was not really that naïve, I knew what your plans were most the time. It’s a game and I survived that round, and it was you that complemented me on my game play. I will always see you as a friend and I am glad to have got you further then you have in an org. You should be proud you got as far as you did.
5th Brandon – You were the person that I talked with the most in the game. You were always there when I needed company. We also helped each a lot in challenges. I protected you when you merged to my Yaxha tribe. I trusted you the most aside of BJ, but when you came to me regarding Jim bringing up my past game, it worried me. I was trying to turn you around to get on my side, but I guess you felt I was also a threat as well. What I didn’t know until the last few weeks is that you were actually playing this game, but not with me, but against me. Now I know why you kept saying that the jury and the prediction writers would be disappointed in your game play. They knew you were playing me as well. I am not saying I never played you either, but I always had your back until the last challenge when I got suspious, when I realized you were working against me. I caught on late, but thank god it wasn’t late enough. When I realized that you were running back to Jim most likely telling him everything I said, I worked on getting you out instead of me. Sorry, you most likely t wouldn’t of got to final two, and you were in my eyes least deserving after that move you pulled on me. I know it’s all a game and I do understand, you just should of stayed with me, I would of at least got you further then Jim did. I think you are very likable and I enjoyed playing this game with you. Good luck in future games.
6th Jamie – What can I not say about you? You were not the best player in the game, but you were the most honest. I do think you have a different theory of how this game works, but your young, you may catch on soon. What I am trying to say is if you came to play this game and not lie, then don’t play. You almost ruined my most perfect plan to rally the votes and boot Billy, by being honesty stupid. I never did confront you, but Morgan came to me about it. I just let it go, you didn’t do too much damage, but after that I never told you anything in confidence after that.
7th Morgan – You were the first person I talked with in this game. Then you were assigned to Nakum and we just never really connected. You should be proud you got as far as you did in the game. Jamie was your ally and he protected you to the day you left.
8th Rafe – your just a nice guy and you played great in challenges. You also were a threat in this game. You just were a little too late in trying to make an alliance with me. It was obvious when Billy left that you were not trying to befriend me, but to just fish for information. It all backfired when you only came to me when you needed something. You then started going around to the others and talking crap about me to get me voted out. You also blew it all out of proportion. It wasn’t me always calling the shots. It was what the majority of us wanted. You are fun and easy to talk too, but you took advantage of me and that is why you got burned before me.
9th Judd – What can I say about Judd; you were so competitive and what a loyal person. When we first got on the Yaxha tribe, you didn’t say much. I asked if any strategy talk was going on and you said, not yet, lets wait till we went to Tribal Council. Well that never happened. We merged and you went over to Nakum. I am sure you built new alliances to save yourself, but when you made the move to jump ship and move over to our tribe, it would then be all over for you. You made a bold move, but not the best one in your game play. That ended it for you. You might have lasted another round if you hadn’t lost that locked box challenge. Over all, it was a great game and a pleasure getting to know you. Good luck in future games.
10th Ruthie Marie – You have a history of running Org games. I have never seen your game play, so this was my first opportunity. You never really made an effort to get to know me. You entered this game with a target on your back yet you lasted longer then Billy. That was a great accomplishment and you should be proud. I mean I never really saw your game play, because we were on different tribes. When you all jumped ship over to Yaxha, you must of sensed it would be all over soon. I believe if you had your heart into this game, you could of grab it by the reins and did some damage, but you chose to lay low and not really go for it.
11th Amy – I made many efforts to get to know you in this game, but you just disregarded the idea. You were the sandbag in our game; we dragged you around until we didn’t need you anymore. You were not worthy to be on the jury so we voted you out.
12th Billy – You were the biggest threat coming into this game. It was a good thing you were immune. I got to hand it to you; you built an awesome tribe that never lost one challenge. You never really came to me for an alliance, you just told me I was with yours. That alliance was not legit. I would of never aligned with Brianna. I believed you had alliances everywhere and working every angle. We did have a great time and worked well in challenges. I felt you would be extremely hard to beat when the tribe mutiny merge happened. You even started to go after my allies and that is when I had to stand up and take action. That was the boldest and most daring move I have ever made in a game. It was nice you complemented me on that move. I was pretty proud myself, other then you knew and was never really blindsided. After that move, I became the threat in the game and everyone thought I was calling the shots.
13th Stephanie – didn’t know you either, just knew you most likely would have gone far, had Ruthie been more serious about the game.
14th Brianna – OMG I just knew when she got on my tribe there would be someone to go after. I didn't really know her, but heard of how she takes games very seriously and is a master at winning challenges. I am aware of your game play and the grudges you have when you leave games. I am just glad Bobby Jon got you out of the game before jury.
15th Margaret – I didn’t get to know you, as you happen to be on a different tribe. Your luck ran out when you guys kept losing. It might have been that you are from Australia and the time zone just did’ t work out for you.
16th Blake – you came on really strong at the beginning of the game. You were a pest when challenges came out and it was nice that you left the game early.
17th Lydia – I didn’t get to know you as well. You were also on Naranjo; which was the weakest tribe, therefore the weakest went first.
18th Brian – talked to you once and that was at first challenge. You came on strong in the first challenge, but then just disappeared. Maybe you lost the site link, because we never saw you again.
19th Gary – Gary you’re a great guy, we could of done some damage together had you stayed longer in this game. It was just too bad you were first of three to go, but it must of been just luck of the draw.
20th Danni - I didn’t get to talk to you much, but it was a pleasure having you in the game, just sorry you couldn’t get farther. You would have been a good person to be aligned had you not left so soon.
This has been the best game I have participated in my org history. I have only played a handful, and this one rates with my most challenging and exciting so far.
Rob; your the best Host I have ever met. You are prompt with announcements, challenges, and tribal council. Your challenges were a killer, but I survived. You should be proud you ran a flawless game.
Props to you and thank you to the Predication Writers for taking the time and energy to make this game unforgetable.
