Penner's Thread

[Jonathan Penner]

Hey girls!

First of all, congrats!
I'm glad to see you two here among other people, ESPECIALLY after all being said in the Jury!

So, I do have my mind made up, but it can easily change!
So, I have a few questions for you girls!

Colleen, I'll start with you.
Now I feel recently you've been eyeing my vote, and have been trying to persuade me, but now it's me and you, and you're answering to get my vote, don't mess it up.

As you know, I DID get back into this game after being voted out!
While on Hilo, I got to know you more than ANYONE, Russ right behind you, but I saw him for the snake he was!

My question: I know you didn't pretend to be friends with me, but I do feel you didn't fight like you say you did to keep me in the game. I just want you to give me a list of all the "fake" friendships in this game, and how you used them to get you where you are! Answer truthfully, and you have my vote!

Thanks Colleen <3

Elisabeth- Well, I feel that everyone on the Jury has been talking about how well you played, and how you were the mastermind! I never saw it, partly because you never talked to me, not your fault. So right now, I'm just taking everyone's word, but I would like you to give me a list of all the members of the merged tribe, and a few more, Sundra and Coach who were more apparent but didn't make Jury, and I want you to explain every single member, how you used them, and then what you constructed to dispose of them! Give me all the dirty details!

And for both of you:
I want you to use these words: Courage, heart, perserverance, strategy, brains, smoothe talker, idiot, loud mouth, undeserving, good friend, deserving and place them next to a member of the pre jury and yourselves. Then give an explanation why you gave them that characteristic!

Thanks girls, and good luck!
Wish you both the best!

Hi, Penner!

No! No! No! I've not been eye-balling your vote, at all. I mean Hell yes, I'd like it! HAHA! But, for real... It was a couple of tribal council's ago when you rolled your eyes about me saying "I'm not sure who's running this game." I always knew who you were, but I wasn't sure you were ever going to own it or what not.. So when you rolled your eyes at my comment, letting me know that you knew I knew I was in control... haha... I decided to start chatting with you! So that's the story on that!


My question: I know you didn't pretend to be friends with me, but I do feel you didn't fight like you say you did to keep me in the game. I just want you to give me a list of all the "fake" friendships in this game, and how you used them to get you where you are! Answer truthfully, and you have my vote!

I definitely didn't pretend to be your friend. I liked you! And you were a breath of fresh air on Hilo at that time... You don't even know how hard I fought for you! Bob should feel very pleased that I viewed him as such a threat, I was ready to can him right then and there. I tried so hard to switch things up, but you didn't help too much! LOL! It got crazy and confusing! And people we're in and then out... So I decided I needed to step back, as a strategic move, and quit pushing so hard- because I didn't want to fizz out!

As far as friendships- Friendship is funny! If I made a bond with you- It was real... I had good friendships with Coach/Bob/Rob/Parvati/Elisabeth! But there's something I learned along time ago about this game.... and that is just because they're your friend- don't mean they got your back, and dont mean you owe them a win in this game! So... The friendships I made were real, but I came to play Survivor- and win! I never lost that goal!

Courage- Coach b/c he came into this game as a version 2 and started taking control quickly and really starting to show courage in making it to the end.

Heart- Sundra b/c she gave it her all in this game! That girl was amazing, and I think she really had the heart to go far out here!

Perserverance- James b/c he kept persevering and making it one step further despite being a target from early on.

strategy- Jonathan- b/c you rock and have it all up there in your brain!

brains- Cassandra b/c I havent used her?!

smoothe talker- Kathy b/c She almost went First TC but didnt?

idiot- Tyson b/c he never showed up! Stupid fool!
loud mouth- Charlie b/c he made it further than all the inactives, so he had to have at least been on the radar? LOl

undeserving- Mary b/c she didn't care about this game.
good friend- Elisabeth b/c She was a good friend to me...

deserving- Myself- because I gave this game 110% from day 1-39, and I believe I am a strong competitor and deserve this!

Thanks, Jonathan! <3 you

Elisabeth- Well, I feel that everyone on the Jury has been talking about how well you played, and how you were the mastermind! I never saw it, partly because you never talked to me, not your fault. So right now, I'm just taking everyone's word, but I would like you to give me a list of all the members of the merged tribe, and a few more, Sundra and Coach who were more apparent but didn't make Jury, and I want you to explain every single member, how you used them, and then what you constructed to dispose of them! Give me all the dirty details!

Man Jonathan, this is insane lol. But I do understand where this question is coming from.

Sundra: I did not use her, like I said in Bob's question, this was one of the two votes, I was involve at ALL. I was thinking that Sundra, Colleen and I would have vote Russell. Russell clearly made something good to convince Colleen.
Coach: He was just an easy vote. When you came under Version 2, Rob/Bob and I wanted you gone ASAP. It was too dangerous to keep you around.

Jerri: I did not used her in a manipulative way. We were sharing information and we did talk a bit about the TC pre-merge. Once the merge came, I was using her to know where her friends were going.

Ethan: Man o man, he was the most important player for me before he left. We did share so many stuff. I did manipulated him by convincing him to give me A LOT of information (while I was sharing a lot less, sorry Ethan). All of that information was shared with Rob and Bob so we could know how puna was working as a unit and decide a stategy.

Ozzy: I won't lie with this one. I did not manipulate him at all. I would say HE DID manipulate me. When Ethan told him that I was his secret weapon over at Hilo, Ozzy just used me to get a bit more information that allowed him to blindside Ethan. I was so pissed at him *looking at Ozzy with a small smile*

Russell: This one is tricky. I did manipulate him by letting him be all out against me. He knew I was gunning for him, since I wasnt hiding, I'm sure it did make him a bit paranoid. Being paranoid in this game make you think too hard. Which I believe he did. So I manipulate him in a very subtle way. Also, when I did vote against him (sundra TC), he asked me why I did that. I did not hide at all. He knew right there, we were against each other. Doing that, Rob/Bob would have to protect me to get the HII later on. Hope it's clear enough for this one.

Bob: I did manipulate Bob ONCE. WHen Jerri left *look at jerri sadly*. Ethan wanted her so bad, I needed to trick Bob into believing Jerri cannot be trusted. I just gave Rob and Bob a little stuff to thing about. Not too much to be too obvious but just enough for the seeds to grow. I did get Bob voted out by creating the famous women foursome. It was the pivotal part of the game at the end I believe.

Rob: I think we both manipulate each other all game long. I used him to protect me at the beginning when I was left alone in Hilo. I did manipulate him by telling him stuff about the HII, I knew he was playing for win and would keep me to get the HII later on (like I promise him). We were both sharing all kind of information and strategy. I get him out by telling only the truth to the girls that he cannot be beaten in the finale.

Parvati:I wont say I manipulate her, but I did used HER. She was a necessary vote to get rid of the two strongest player left in the game (Rob, Bob). I knew it was a risk since she's so strong, but I knew that when it would be required, I would beat her in the challenges. Again, she is a key factor of both Colleen and I sitting here.

PG: Same as Parvati. I did work her so she would pick me in the final by telling how much Colleen was a sweetheart and stuff. I wont be able to tell you it worked, because she did not win the final challenge, but I think it would.

Colleen: HOw can you manipulate this sweetheart? I do not believe we (colleen and I) manipulate each other. We were working as a team for a while. The only way I used her is the following: I needed her to get Bob out by convincing her it was in our best interest (which it was honestly). Also, I did help her during some challenges, it wasnt know, but I did kinda COACH her to do puzzle. This is a reason why she won the tie-breaker against PG. I also make her safe at the end and that was to make sure she would bring me in the final, which worked obviously.



I want you to use these words: Courage, heart, perserverance, strategy, brains, smoothe talker, idiot, loud mouth, undeserving, good friend, deserving and place them next to a member of the pre jury and yourselves. Then give an explanation why you gave them that characteristic!

Pre-jury, hmm kinda hard, I'll do my best.
Cassandra: undeserving, never did showed up
Charlie: undeserving, she was clearly not active enough
Coach: which one lol
- Coach v1: undeserving, never did showed up
- Coach v2: perserverance, how can you not put that word to version 2
James: Loud, once you left the game, James did go balistic.
Kathy: Undersaving, never did showed up
Mary: Undersaving, never did showed up
Sundra: Smooth talker, she was just nice to talk to.
Tyson: Undersaving, never did showed up
