 I love Kelley! It sucks that you were seen that way and I'm glad that I took the time to get to know you, because I know how much effort and time you put into your games and your playing, and how awesome you really are. <3

Thought I'd pop in for a moment....
Kelley I think its a shame you feel this way. This was all a game. And we all realized you were busy and had a lot going on in your life and understood that. you weren't online as much as gracie, jamie, annette, or myself but you did hold your own in challenges. I don't think anyone ever faulted you ever for your participation. I mean I wasn't there for one, Ellie was left with the valentine, and Ash took the fall for the picture posting challenge. We all knew you had been around for that. I think you put as much effort into this game as you had time for and that was fine. The reason your inactivity affected you and the perceptions of you was just the fact you weren't around to connect with. Everyone who was online I had a chance to really get to know and bond with. You just weren't as accessable. No fault of your own but you have to own up to that being a part of the game you played and own the resulting consequences of your actions or lack of actions. I don't mean to come down on you because I don't know you at all but have heard only good things. this is a game, nothing more and nothing less. Please dont get offended by the things in the eps as we are all coming under attack. some more than others but we all take our turn under the firing squad. so keep your chin up, you are loved here, just enjoy the eps for what they are worth and enjoy seeing what was happening all around us!
alll my best to you,
Jenne

Kelly, this was intriguing to me as a viewer. I too have read prior Holidays seasons, and I know that some people from Okinawa etc have posted to one another, but there are no direct posts about specific aliases. Are you able to tell us how you really knew that info?
Great game so far!

ME TOO JoJo! Since chats weren't shown in the episodes where who I am was told .. I'm infinitely curious about this. No mad or upset .. just curious!

I'm afraid it wasn't anything as interesting as detective work...when she knew she was going, Ashlee IMed me and told me everything. ROFL

Kelley,
You know you'll always have me as a Fan! Especially since I still owe you for what I did in the game we were in together! LOL
Good Luck to you!

Kelly, this was intriguing to me as a viewer. I too have read prior Holidays seasons, and I know that some people from Okinawa etc have posted to one another, but there are no direct posts about specific aliases. Are you able to tell us how you really knew that info? Great game so far! JoJo (season 1) First off - congrats Kelley. Good job in the game so far. You are one of the characters I have enjoyed reading about. And I hear you on your post...sometimes people say things that sting a bit. Second, Miss Jojo - as far as this "pool" is concerned...it is all kind of odd. This is what I know about the Tonga/Holidays connection. I was in a game called Survivor: Okinawa (my first ever), and afterward, as Karen was putting together the Season 1 cast - she asked me to apply. I was cast, as were Michelle (Holidays: 4th place) from Okinawa and Rafe (Holidays: 2nd Place) who hosted Tonga (which Okinawa was the sequel to). The alias issue is simple - I was pretty well known from my one previous game and my reputation seemed like it would be a hindrance, rather than a help. So I asked Karen about an alias. So I could have a fresh start. Michelle and Rafe apparently also chose to play under aliases, as well as Shannon (Holidays: 7th place) who was from another set of games and unknown to me. In many ways, it was all a matter of luck that the three of us did well at all, as I was targetted over and over, and the people I was aligning with were always ready to oust Michelle. To be fair - Rafe and Michelle did not even know about each other until way late in the game from what I remember...and by that point, both were vying against each other to be my Final 2. Jojo (Holidays: 3rd Place) can attest - final four was U-G-L-Y. Although 3 of us came from the same series of games...it didn't make for anything all that pretty. Anyway, after I won, I went ahead and posted a link to the Holidays game so that my Oki fans could read the eps. The Tonga/Okinawa games ended up being fairly notorious and the casts and fans still haunt those boards sometimes. Prior to Season 2, Taylor (who you all know, and who also played in Tonga), asked me about the games, and I told him how wonderful Karen & Rob were as hosts. He applied for and played in season 2 (Holidays: 12th Place, I think). Season 3 had nobody from the Tonga/Oki groups as far as I know. Season 4 is where the real explosion occurred. Beth, Elisabeth, Jenne, Taylor & Tenzil are all among you. I have no idea how all of 'em ended up playing...from reading the story, it seems like most of them didn't know the others were playing either. Anyway, I had encouraged Lizzie to play in Season 3, but she forgot to apply. And now you all BOOTED HER!  Anyway...that's how the group got over here I think...but when you look at it numerically - there are only 4 Okinawans and 4 Tongans out of 66 player slots. So, I'm not sure how accurate it is to call us a pool...but there's the backstory on the mini-migration. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D BACK TO THE KELLEY LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Smiley overload!
Nope, no one in Season 3 to my knowledge either. But Lizzie in Season 3? That would have been interesting...very interesting.
And I can attest to the fact that it was pretty much coincidence - to a degree - that Rafe, Chris, and Michelle all ended up in the Final 4.
PS There have been 62 player spots (16+16+12+18), with a few knocked off because of multiple playing (Isaac, Taylor, Drew, me, etc.).
And I love me some Kelley too. ;D

Love me some Jojo, too! (in spite of cussing you out at F4! mwahahaha!) Lizzie in Season 3 - she woulda been some stiff competition for you mister Jakey. And, um, thanks for correcting my math skills. Ingrate. As far as Kelley...I'm impressed - and not just because her photo is purty. She seems to be playing well, if you ask me. Interesting that Lizzie spilled all to her. Should be interesting to see how Kelley uses the info. |
