.indulgecountry I'm surprised our 8 page PM is your longest. I enjoyed talking with you about non-gameplay things. However, I didn't ask you to explain your interaction or lack thereof with me, but with anyone in the game. I made it pretty clear I was targeting you, so I understand why you didn't talk much game with me. But since I didn't see that type of gameplay on our end, I was giving you an opportunity to tell me with whom you actually did demonstrate that aspect. You felt the need to throw out that it annoyed you for me to stop responding to you, so I felt like addressing it. But to answer your question, I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for honestly. But I did approach a lot of people in this game over things when I needed to. That's why I nominated Codex the first time, because I asked a bunch of people who they thought was a big threat or someone they didn't trust. It's why I put up Ed as a replacement nom, because I asked enough people and heard his name come back a lot. I came to everyone the week I was nominated against Liucci and convinced them to keep me. If you thought just because of that one instance with you that I didn't take an active role in talking with people in this game, then I dunno what to tell you, but that's definitely not the way I went about my business. It's true that I didn't talk to people unless I felt I really needed to though. Like I didn't make it a point to make idle conversation with everyone constantly. But I feel I demonstrated it for me personally with Zebra, bigfan, AA, Fancy, Albie, and a few others at the very least.

OMG, this is why I asked the question. I'm trying to see what gameplay you did with other people, NOT me. I know how you played with me. You're misinterpreting what annoyed me. Anyhow, I guess I got as good an answer to my question as I am going to get from you, so I'm good.

First of all, I'd like to say thank you to Max and Surf for modding this game. As much piss and moaning as I and everyone else did, I'm sure we all realize how hard it is to come up with dozens of competitions and keep the game moving while managing annoying personalities like JessieLou and ed1996. Damn, they were so bitchy. :kii: Your welcome for the annoying bitchiness my love <3 I'll see you at the finale bro!! ;)

Keep the questions coming!I'm going to open up the voting now. I know not everyone has asked their questions for the final two so like every other vote, if you do vote early and see something that makes you reconsider, you do have the option to change your vote up until the deadline. Deadline: 6pm ESTWhen you cast your vote, you will be voting for who you are picking to win. Between .indulgecountry and Codex. The votes will be revealed in our finale, which will take place starting at 6pm EST (barring any car accident, abduction, mystery something or other, or power outage). Both .indulgecountry and Codex will have one final opportunity to make any last statements, we will give jury members one final chance to adjust their votes based on these and from there, we will reveal the winner. See you all tomorrow! <3 Acid Eyes Albie bigfan101 Fancy @jb23241 popstop josh Zeebz MikeySpidey, Musicguy, @jessielou, Ed The Pacifist!

I'm sorry. There's literally no time we can swing it that everyone will be here at the same time. And I picked that time because I'm off, Surf should be here, and both Codex and Indulge have said they'd be able to be here. (I hope they still can...!) Realistically, the finale will probably be stretched for hours and hours days and days. Plus there's the post-vote reveal and all the other secrets and stuff.

Hello whores! Am I the last to go? Might as well save the best for last. Congrats to both of you for making it this far! I definitely didn't see this being the final two but I can't say that either of you don't deserve to be here. We may have had our differences and I may not like some of the circumstances that led you to the final two, but what's done is done and you've both played decent enough games to get to this point. Let's start with .indulgecountry!Indie, I have nothing really negative to say about your game. You never double crossed me (or anyone that I know of, for that matter), and although I didn't expect you to get to this point I'm glad that you did. If I wanted anyone in the final three to make it I wanted you to, and now you're here! Congrats boo! I'm kind of shocked that you threw the last competition, but I can't say anything about that given my track record. I'm having a hard time coming up with questions because everyone else already took the good ones, but I guess that I'm curious as to what your strategy was coming into this game/how well you think you executed it? Also I want to know your favorite Bey video because #reasons. Now for Codex!Codex, as much as everyone is giving you a hard time about being gone for so long (including me earlier), you do deserve to be here. We were at fault for not evicting you again when we had the chance and it's not your fault that you're back (looking at you mods). No but seriously you did play a good game once you came back. You managed to make the right connections and to win the right comps in order to make it to this point. You've earned this. However, I can't say that your comeback is without fault... My question for you is why did you risk the chance of my eviction? I literally saved you by not voting you out that one week (to try and save Josh and I) and here you were pledging to be willing to do whatever it took to be in the final two with me. You claimed that you would use that veto on me if you won it and I believed you, even if I had a feeling that final four would be my exit point. However, at the last minute you flaked out and didn't use the veto knowing that if AA made it to the final two he would win (I probably would've sent him packing had I had the veto, js - no offense AA). I just don't understand why you risked letting me be evicted? I knew that AA and Indulge were tight and that he wasn't just going to evict Indie. To be fair though I was ready to go at that point and you not using the veto on me was bittersweet. My heart wasn't in the game anymore and I realized what an awful game I had played. However, that didn't stop me from being bitter that you did that. To elaborate on what I want for your answer, I just want you to explain. I know that you touched on it before but I would like to see it again because otherwise that move seemed random as fuck and just a really shitty move in general. Sigh. Fourth isn't too bad though, given that Josh and Popstop have both previously been in this position. Bye y'all! Good luck.

I'm just not a cutthroat type of game player and I'm glad to hear people saying that they're happy I never double-crossed them because that was always my intent. I didn't want to be a dirty game player, and I feel like I was able to execute that very well and it worked well enough to carry me all the way to the end, so I'm definitely happy with the outcome of my gameplay overall. I wouldn't have changed a thing! Except maybe PM'd popstop one last time. My favorite Beyonce video is probably "Beautiful Liar" because Shakira or "If I Were a Boy" because the storyline was night & it was done in black-and-white, which I LOVE. Oh and I already elaborated on it, but I didn't *really* throw the comp or at least not intentionally going into it. I basically just knew I wouldn't win, so my strategy became to just take my best guess on the answers I would've taken too long to find since I knew Codex would find them all and in a very fast time... which he did. So I'm glad I didn't waste my time on it, honestly.

Hey guys, I wanted to thank you both for answering my questions so thoughtfully! I'm heading out on a 3-day camping trip and do not expect to have service during that time. So I'm likely going to miss the finale. I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with the two of you the past few weeks. I'd be happy to see either of you win it all. <3 Best of luck during the finale! .indulgecountryCodexP.S. To everyone else, I was planning to post the full voting history chart during the finale, but looks like I'll have to hold off until Friday or Saturday. If Max and Surfy can please send me the voting histories after the votes are locked, that would be just peachy. Thanks everyone for a season more interesting than BB16!

We actually had no control over what got leaked. We leaked the 10th PM (over 2 lines long) that was sent after a certain event.

No wonder I got harassed by the leaks, almost all of my game-related posts are longer than a line and I sent many PM's. I messaged everybody with the exception of Spidey & JessieLou in this game.

Surfy!!!! You're not supposed to leak our secrets until after the game is over when we reveal all!!! But yeah, none of the leaks were us at all. lmao! We laughed so many times over people thinking we picked their posts on purpose. That would hardly be fair now, would it?

How come the leaks stopped?

How come the leaks stopped? They were supposed to continue for a few more weeks but then Absent happened and the way it worked was that it was the 10th PM, 2 lines or longer, that was made after the eviction ceremony was done. So we had to count the number of PMs with more than 2 lines after every eviction. But because the Absent HOH didn't allow PMs, we had nothing to count and by the time the game came back, we kinda forgot... But the week after the Absent HOH was the last scheduled leak so it wasn't detrimental to anything that we forgot. To be honest though, I didn't want any of the leaks to be too revealing because I realized after the leak with the alliance information that having subtle information come out was probably more of a wake-up than having something that actually revealed damning information. The leaks were meant to keep you on your toes but not ruin anybody's games - and some of the potential leaks that could have come out had they been ordered slightly differently....

Final Speech: It's been great fun and a pleasure to play this game with y'all this summer and even thought it wasn't easy and it lasted way too long, lol, it was a treat. I feel as though I played a very solid game and deserve to be in the finale, especially considering I did it with grace and kindness, something Dolly Parton herself would be proud of, I'm sure. I impressed myself with my improvement in challenges this season; I never anticipated that I would win 2 HOHs, so that was a great surprise for me. I guess I just really enjoyed the more 'creative' competitions because those I did much better at than in the technical ones. It was also really enjoyable being able to make and strengthen relationships with people on this forum through this game as someone who rarely uses the PM function otherwise, so I definitely liked getting to know some of y'all a bit better. Overall I can say that this was a thoroughly fun yet challenging experience, and I'm really proud of the game I played. In closing, I'll just say that I respect the decision of the jury and think Codex played a good game as well, but I would obviously love to win of course, so I'd love it if y'all voted for me! Thanks!

I thought the season overall was very good! I wonder who is all-star material from this season? LOL i'd be surprised if I was all-star material due to me being 1 of the biggest--IF not biggest flop in history of Pulse BB...But then again Marcellas flopped hard in BB3 and he got asked back where he flopped even harder
