Pre-Game Questions

[GinaMarie]

Welcome back! We're so happy to have you back on board for our 2nd All-Stars edition! We're honored and excited that you are here to play again and we can't wait to see how you do this time around. However, we're also dying to know what your thoughts are coming into the game and with this being an All-Star season, we're expecting you to really step it up and go all-out in your DR. What better way to start than to have some Pre-Game questions to answer while we wait for the game to begin?


1. Do you have a set strategy coming into the game? If so, what it is?

2. Since this is an All-Star game, do you know anyone coming into it? What is your relationship like with each of those people? Friends? Rivals? Also, if you do know anyone, do you plan on working with them at all?

3. Is there anyone that you don't think really deserves to be here? Why or why not?

4. What is something that you would like to correct since the last time you've played? Are you worried that your reputation from your previous season could hurt you coming into this?

5. Do you have what it takes to win this game?

6. Any final comments before the game begins?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer these questions! If you have any further comments or concerns, please contact a Main Staff member and we'll try our best to promptly help you. Best of luck as you venture into the game!

1. Do you have a set strategy coming into the game? If so, what it is?

Hmmm! Good question! I don't have a set strat coming into the game tbh. I like to go with the flow and see where that gets me aha. In Shadow Survivor AS I came in not expecting to do too hot and I ended up surprising myself and doing p well! I've been focusing on the positive vibes (Shir knows about em)! (: I liked being myself as Jason. Last time I played Heaven I kinda tried to play a character sometimes and I think it's easier to be myself. I kinda took a backseat in Shadow Survivor AS but still played my lil heart out in the competishes.

I guess if I had to define my strat it'd be playing my best physically but not being a social threat? I dunno! I think if I'm both I could be in troubs mega early. When I get on to talk to peeps I keep it cool and talk to everyone a lil bit.. let things wind down and message em later for a pick me up! I don't wanna be a person that talks and talks with everyone and it starts getting passed around like a hot potato that I'm trying to buddy up w/ everyone!

2. Since this is an All-Star game, do you know anyone coming into it? What is your relationship like with each of those people? Friends? Rivals? Also, if you do know anyone, do you plan on working with them at all?

I know a few peeps! Oh now that I look over the memory wall I don't really know a lot (since the cast is humungo) ahaha! Before talking to everyone I knew Hayley, Keith, Memphis, Mike, Nick, Ryan, Shilpa, Sofia and Zach and that's only b/c of Shadow Survivor or my own season! Memphis and I had a weird ship to say the least! We played together in season 6 and we're in opp alliances but still got along! We finished a game together but he never chatted me and we were kinda distant the whole time. /: We talked a lil last night and it's not a problemo! He was busy and we weren't on the same side so I can't hold it against him!

Mike was Jeremy in my season too and we were close until he left early. He was Shawn in Shadow Survivor and my opinion of him changed a lot there. He's kinda a coward and I think he's a very disloyal and untrustworthy player. I like him as a human b/c I know he's a good person but after that game I don't think I could ever play on the same side as him and not be watching my back 24/7!

Nick and I had a feud in season 6 and I always keep hearing how upset he was about my Special Veto and how he'll want revenge and all that stuff. I don't dislike Nick but I dunno if I can work with him b/c I'd be on my toes a lot and a real alliance shouldn't be like that! I gotta listen to my gut. Shilpa and Sofia I played with in the last game. Shilpa I don't trust b/c she's very social with everyone and tries to cut lots of deals and I know she's got a lot of friends! Sofia is a new friend of mine and one of my favos! Zach is a great host and I wanna play with him this season but he's like Shilpa too.. he's got a lot of connections!

Keith is who I haven't kept in touch with but we chit chatted yesterday. He's playing the same way aha. He's trolly! Hayls and I were talking about how he doesn't seem to take anything serious! Speaking of Hayls I still love her to bits but it doesn't feel the way it used to. Finally is Ryan who I am very close to! Ryan and I are good friends and we talk almost every day ahah. I introduced him to the series and this cute community. I like that we're gonna be able to play a game together b/c we played together a lot in our LJ days. I'm scared to be put on the block with him b/c I don't want to have to campaign against one of my best friends..

3. Is there anyone that you don't think really deserves to be here? Why or why not?

I think everyone got picked for a reason! If they weren't meant to be here then they wouldn't be here! I'm not gonna be the type of person to knock a players spot in the game b/c they got picked as an alt. I don't know a lot of the peeps or how they played in their seasons but they had to be considered for something right? Speaking on my season since it's the only one I have some info about I think everyone that made it earned their spot. Hayls was the season sweetheart, Keith was the class clown, and Memphis and Nick were the key parts of the League of Gentlemen! From talking to others I think some are mad that Brian was cast? I dunno him but could he be that bad? Sofia hates his guts! I will have to see for myself!

4. What is something that you would like to correct since the last time you've played? Are you worried that your reputation from your previous season could hurt you coming into this?

My competish ability is gonna put a target on my back and probs from the get go. It's always gonna be a problemo for me in games if peeps know who I am. I like the competishes and enjoy doing well at them b/c they give me control and some power to make moves and decisions. I wish I could rewind time and play my season a lil diff. I didn't wanna rely on winning so much b/c it made my target get bigger and bigger. I guess I had to b/c of the League of Gentlemen but I wish things hadn't been like that! I think I will look threatening to everyone but if others were smart they should want to align with me! This is one of the things I was talking to Ryan about.. if we talk to everyone and make an effort socially they may wanna work with us and use us as their protectors! I can't protect everyone ahah but I def wanna get some close allies and have their back so they can have mine!

5. Do you have what it takes to win this game?

I have what it takes! It's all about the energy you put out! Positive mind, positive vibes, positive life! Thinking positively isn't about expecting the best to happen every time but it's accepting that whatever happens is the best for the moment! I wanna win and I am gonna do everything in my power to try to win but I gotta accept that if it doesn't happen it's b/c it wasn't meant to be! Most of all it's about having fun! If I play any game, the number one goal is to have a good time.. b/c if you don't then what's the point of playing in the first place? Enjoying yourself and meeting new peeps is also what these games are about!

6. Any final comments before the game begins?

I wanna say thank you to everyone who has given me support and love in the past! I cannot wait to get into the game and start playing. This is one of my favo series' and I don't wanna let you guys down as the first unanimous winner!
