Nicole's Questions

Hey Guys, Congrats to all three of you making it to the end.

I played with all of you before and you all became my friends.

In Congo I had a good friendship with Jamie and was in a tight alliance with you.

In Spartly I had alliance with both of you (Lex and Julie) but I wanted to side with Julie more but we just didn't have the numbers.

And in this season I had a great friendship and alliance with Lex the entire game.

So this is a tough vote because I am good friends with all of you, so please explain to me why I should vote for you to win?

I think first and foremost, I should get your vote because it should be based on this season, not the others. This is an All-Stars and it had to be played very differently than the other seasons, because there were a crapload of friendships and previous relationships/situations coming into the game, moreso even than usual.

I've always gotten along with you really well and we work well together and had a lot of the same ideas in this game, and I think you more than anyone can understand how much I struggled and fought to make something happen and get the Heroes on top in the end, from the beginning of the game up until this point.

You know how hard I fought to keep us in the game, to give us an edge, etc. It mattered a lot to me that me, you, and Rob had pretty much kept together throughout the season. If the rules would have allowed me to pass you the HII from the Graveyard the round that you were voted out, you know that I would have. I was honest and straight-forward with you throughout the game, and I'm glad we had another chance to work together because I feel like in the end, you got the shaft in our alliance from Spratly Islands because of the agreement Peter/Mike/I made before we even started working with you.

Thanks for your question.

Nicole,
I realize that you and Lex were aligned throughout most of the game and I respect that. I loved working with you in Congo and would have loved to have been on the same side again, however the reality is it is so much harder when you begin on different tribes. I'd like to first explain why I did not chose to go with the girls alliance. First, you know from Congo my loyalty to Brendan, and along with Ryan I just could not be a part of it from that reason alone. Second, the way I looked at the alliance, or what I believed it would be, from the Heroes side: Yourself, Peih Gee, Vee, and from the Villains side: Myself, Julie & Heidi, I found myself on the lower end of that alliance. I felt whichever trio was able to get the 3-2 advantage would just pick off the other. Also, Heidi would have chosen Julie over me and I believed you would have as well. So in my eyes, I was basically getting 6th if we made it even that far. I gave the impression I was totally down for it to further my game which it did. I feel I played this game well, while in tribes I was a part of the Eliza blindside and getting out Heidi and Colby which furthered my game, setting me up to where I sit today, while never really putting a target on my back. Thanks for your question Nicole.
