Tyson asked me to let you know he won't have time to play due to his schedule.  |

Tell him we'll miss him! I was hoping to see him be awesome! Again, thank you Eliza for taking care of that <# Which means: Sandra Adam, Ashley, Misty, Tom Alex, Eliza, JP, Michelle, Mikayla, Papa Bear Heidi, Kelly W, Tracy Anthony, Brenda, Chelsea, Courtney, Jen, Penner, Shawna, Yau-Jess 1 + 4 + 6 + 3 + 8 = 22 Unless someone else has something come up. 22 is fine, though I am concerned about having 8 people from Kalahari... I have no idea who to cut, though... so many are equal! |

I'm considering casting Kenny because of the drama in jury... but I don't think he's done enough to deserve it. He may have brought Ace's name up and started that ball rolling, but... he got hit by that ball next. I don't think he's gone above and beyond the expectations for making All-Stars via 11th place. Plus, from what I recall, several people said his social game was atrocious. I really don't think he deserves it. He seems to think he does... but I think he's the only one  |

I'm still thinking about Jen too. As much as she deserves it for how she played, I still can't get over the fact of who she is and how she outright lied to me about it. She played games with the host and to me, that's a sign that asshole Alex hasn't changed a bit. He really is a horrible person - that's why I banned him (had nothing to do with this series - how he stalked me, bullied me, and posted my Facebook for all to see are unforgivable in my eyes, and I stand by telling him to go to Hell) and I just don't want to deal with that again.
Jen played a great game in Kalahari and deserves a spot but the other game she played was less than stellar. It's insulting. He damn well knows why he's banned and he knows he has done things that I will never forgive him for. Why should I reward him?
This is a difficult decision...
As is Shawna and Courtney...
Anthony and Yau-Man (who is definitely a villain now) are obviously in for making finals. Brenda is in for her amazing game. Penner is in for being the shady guy. Chelsea did really well for a newbie and got robbed, so she is in. That's five.
Jen would be six. I still don't know if I want her. I also can't decide between the others... any advice, guys? Since Tyson and Kelly B are out, I need 7 but would take 8.

Wait, so he posted your Facebook and yet he's got the nerve to give Yau crap for you finding out his real identity? Isn't this YOUR game? And can we say hypocrite? UGH

UGH Why do you think this bothers the crap out of me? He had to play full alias from me because I would never forgive him. If he tried to make peace, I would have at least let him play, but given how he went incognito, my judgment of his character is that he hasn't changed. He obliterated my privacy online, and I actually had the thought of taking out a hit on him. I hate him regardless, and I even told him that I could never grow to like him. Which means I don't want to talk to him again still. But Jen really deserves All-stars, even though she should not have played in the first place. It's so hard to decide since both ways seem right. |

Just tell Jen if he stays on his best behavior he can play, but he gets an automatic strike in the next game so he has less wiggle room to fuck around.
Be the bigger person!

Or basically, I can do a sort of continuation of DD's blackmail. He gets to play, but if he does anything stupid, his ass is mine. I can kick him out at any time for misbehavior. That seems like a good compromise. He will play then. But he had better not lie to me... and of.course, this policy makes it all the easier to vote him out early |

I've sent my opinion via AIM, but I feel that Jen should not be allowed to play All Stars. We have enough worthy players that All Stars won't suffer for her being gone.
We have rules for a reason, and Jen should not have applied in the first place.

Okay, I've discussed this with Parvati and DD. Alex never owned up to what he did and circumvented a ban instead of appealing it. He did something underhanded, and frankly he hasn't changed. He never should have been in this game in the first place, and it's unfair to a few others who applied and didn't get in - I can't let that happen again with All-Stars, because he'd rob a deserving person who wasn't banned of their spot. From a hosting standpoint, circumventing the rules for someone who already circumvented them is extremely stupid. Therefore, Jen will not be playing in All-Stars. This is the decision most consistent with my rulings this season. Rules are rules. They are meant to be followed. This is how it has to be. So, with that one out... Anthony - "The Emperor" Yau-Jess - "The Kook" Courtney - "The Pawn" Shawna - "The Stealth Bomber" Brenda - "The Bombshell" Penner - "The Sneak" Chelsea - "The Cutie" I'm going to need an alternate. Could be Kenny. Hmmm... Julie, Jeff... one of you could maybe play?  Jeff and Julie. I'd like you two to argue your cases. Julie, your call on whether to argue as Julie or Steph V. I might be needing to pick one of you! |

One more task for Julie and Jeff: Nickname yourself. Give yourself a nickname for how you played in Jiuzhaigou and turkey, respectively. I'm curious to see what you'll say |
