Cindy's Statement

[Cindy]

Congrats to both of you for making it to the end. You are the only two to have beaten me in this game, so clearly you two played the best or you wouldnt be final 2.

I have already decided who I will vote for, however I will ask a few questions anyway:

What always disappoints me in these games is how everyone acts like they know it's just a game, but then as soon as they get voted out they turn into sore losers. When Rafe was voted out I remember talking with all of you about how he was being a sore loser. Yet Jamie, Jim, and Brandon all turned sour when they got voted out. The two of you both know that I was not in the least bit angry when I was voted out live. What I'd like to know is, how good of sports are you? Brooke you seemed to whine and whine about making the mistake on the final challenge and losing by a minute. Bobby, I'd like to think that you would have been classy about it- but then I thought that about Rafe, Jim, and Brandon as well (I knew Jamie would be sour). So I want you both to tell me, in all honesty, what would your reaction have been had you been voted out at the final 3? Do you consider yourselves to be good sports?

Second, does it concern you at all that there are a lot of people on the jury who have been blind the entire game to what has really been going on, and it's these people who are supposed to judge who played better? Does that concern you, yes or no? (Dont give me more than a yes or no please.)

Finally, did you try to manipulate the way people perceived you in this game- how and why? For example, a 20 year old guy pretends to be a 15 year old girl for 39 days so that he would be treated like a gullable kid and be trusted by everyone. What did the two of you do?

Congrats again both of you.

If I was voted out of the Final Three, I would only have myself to blame. I chose the two I wanted with me in the finals before we even merged. Yes, I do consider myself to be a "good sport", but I don't know of anyone that would ever admit they were a "poor sport". In my opinion, people that take getting voted out personally need to step back and look at the big picture. We are a bunch of people who enjoy Survivor, so we gather up and mock up a game. There are no prizes, no rewards...absolutely nothing for winning other than a feeling of self accomplishment. It doesn't make sense to me why people could possibly get really upset if they were booted. Some people obviously come into these games with the intention of forging friendships...sadly it is usually these players that feel heartbroken when their "friend" sends them packing.

As for your second question, yes it does concern me.

And finally, your last question: I did try to manipulate people into thinking I was a "good little follower" early on because I knew that with all of these "veterans" in the game, power players were going to be huge targets. I did not, however, lie about anything about myself that involved my life outside of the game: this can be a very clever strategy, but I don't feel it is necessary.

Cindy shut up i wanst a sore loser and you know you were mad stupid

[Jamie]

You taugth that your stupid strategy of acting stupid was gonna win you this game well you were wrong at least i was honest not like you that you offer everyone alliances

[Cindy]

I like the part where my question was directed to you Jamie- and I wasnt angry at all.

Thanks Cindy

So I want you both to tell me, in all honesty, what would your reaction have been had you been voted out at the final 3? Do you consider yourselves to be good sports?

I understand I might have sounded like I whined about not winning the final challenge because I simply forgot to sign into a room.

Your asking if I was to be voted out of the game would I act like a good sport or a sore loser. The honest answer is No, it would hurt, but I wouldn't go out sore. I was always prepared to leave at any point. I never once acted like I was queen of the game and was going to win. I had to act like I was sore, when Jim told me I was leaving, so beyond that, it would of hurt, but I would of went on just like you.

Second, does it concern you at all that there are a lot of people on the jury who have been blind the entire game to what has really been going on, and it's these people who are supposed to judge who played better? Does that concern you, yes or no? (Dont give me more than a yes or no please.)

Yes

Finally, did you try to manipulate the way people perceived you in this game- how and why? For example, a 20 year old guy pretends to be a 15 year old girl for 39 days so that he would be treated like a gullible kid and be trusted by everyone. What did the two of you do?

I never hid the fact that I was married to a wonderful man, have two teenage daughters and I’m turning 44 on March 17. I am sure everyone knows that personal information, because I never once acted like anyone but MYSELF. You all know I talk a lot and ramble on and on about just anything. I am not working at the time and I never once lied about that. I am a Domestic Engineer, a stay at home Mom. My oldest is graduating this year and I have another turning 16. So you can imagine I have my hands full all the time. And I am sure you all know I was getting a new car, and that was where I was last night.

I hope that answered all your questions

Thanks guys.

Brooke, you didn't quite answer my first question about whether you would have been a good sport if you had been voted out. Also, I only want a yes or no to the second part. Please fix it up.

[Brooke]

FIxed, hope your satisfied

Thanks Brooke
