Pretty sure I'm not in a club, and I certainly dont have one named after myself.

Well, I definitely saw it coming. Jason and Alyssa, hope you had fun making your "Big Move" ^_^. It's kinda a relief to be out TBH, I really wasn't having fun anymore. It sucks to see one friend after another turn their back on you, but that's the way it goes sometimes. I was trying to juggle a lot of friendships and that is not an easy task in the game of Survivor. But I'm happy with the way I played and the fact that I didn't have to let anyone down . To the people that stuck by me, you guys rock! I had a ton of fun meeting and playing again. SO GLAD I MADE JURY!!! That kinda makes everything better. Oh, but before I go, thought I'd clue everyone in to a bit of information I have been scared to reveal all game. Alyssa has been fishing information from the viewers lounge from JERMAINE. That is how she magically found out that some people were targeting Jason when he got switched when no one in the game told her. And that is how she knew not to trust Joey and that he wanted her out after he switched as well. And if you need some proof.... mind bleeds grey (11:00:08 PM): Anyone wanna take a stab at who's getting voted out? I'm thinking either a fan - Tucker/RB/Evan OR Alex/Erik/Jeffrey. Alyssa and Jason both know this is their time to shine. They wanna cause fireworks and I'm exciteddddd. mind bleeds grey (11:00:21 PM): thats the only recent thing Sandy's posted trains offtracks (11:00:22 PM): lolollo trains offtracks (11:00:25 PM): god

Alumni has been shut down, thanks Alyssa and Jermaine!
Erik, why didn't you let me know this information the moment you found out?? You of all people know I do not take lightely to situations like this. Was it because you were sitting on this information because Alyssa was your ally, you wanted to hold onto it and use it as leverage if need be? Foul. You're just as guilty as she is.
Alyssa, contact me or Corey as soon as you read this.

sandy told me to speak to my tribe to clear things up.
first of all, i know what i did was dumb. and if you guys all hate me for the rest of your lives i'll understand. the things jermaine told me were things people said about me.. like how they think i play or if they liked me or whatever. he told me that shit about me and jason making a big move.. which i obviously already knew. i know it's cheating whether it was good or bad information but when people IM you things how can you not look at them? i mean... if i were to IM you something people had said about you, etc. you'd look too. i'm not asking for you to forgive me or to think of me any better than you probably do right now, but i do apologize for fucking up the game. i feel stupid because i dedicated so much of my summer on this, from spamming to win the poll, to missing harry potter to make my roast, and all kinds of shit. i won't apologize for voting erik out because that was just a game move. i can't apologize for playing a game to the best of my ability - but sorry to everyone who was offended by this.
good luck in the game. you guys deserve it.

After discussion with my cohost Corey and parties involved, unfortunately, this is the end of the line for Alyssa. She will have access to the tribe camp for the next few hours if she has any goodbye words to say to the tribe. If not... Alyssa, THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN!
*Snuff's Alyssa's Torch*
I told you this earlier, I was rooting for you 100%, Alyssa. You were controversial, active, entertaining, and fun, all of which is now tainted because of the recent events. You share fault in what went down with Jermaine and it sucks that you jeapordized your position in the game, and the integrity of the game. Not to mention the allies you've let down and yourself really. All the time and energy you've put into this game has all been for not. It's such a shame.
Jermaine clearly still holds a grudge against me from one of the first video's I posted where I called him out. He said I humiliated him, but I didn't think he would seriously not care about sharing things with players. He's a fuckign douchebag and I apologize to everyone.
To all the castaways remaining in the game - the alumni area has been weeded out of all those I truely feel would sham the series like Jermaine. The remaining Alumni are those who I feel care about this series and how this season plays out. If any castaway has a problem with the Alumni area remaining open please reply here with your concerns. It will be shutdown if asked.
May this be a warning to everyone else in the game - talk to Alumni about the game you will be pulled out. If someone approachs you - let me know because if you don't eventually everything comes to the surface. Remember Alyssa as an example. Thank you.
Your next Immunity challenge will be posted tomorrow night at 8:30pm EST.
Feel free to IM Corey or myself about this situation. Love you long time <3.

Oh, and if anyone is opposed to this, has a gripe, or wants to confess anything as Erik did upon his exit - PLEASE SPEAK UP NOWWWWW. This situation is icky, this is the best way I see to solve it... I want the remaining players to feel comfortable and ok going into the next round - final nine.

Alyssa I'm sorry to see you go, you are a great gal and I hope we can be friends still <3
Sandy, I'm guessing answering questions to alumni it's fine right? Like if they come to us to know how the game is going, it's okay to answer them. Or like if we wanna vent to them, as long as we don't get info that would be fine?
Also, Jason I was joking. Joey, "Joey's Club" is just the name I've been using for your alliance since you are the Regina George of Arabia <3

Sandy,
Its a big kick in the teeth for you, the fact that people were getting outsider information and it was being relayed so effortlessly between the alumni and chosen players within the game to help them benefit from what you had wrote.
However, this is a two way street. Relationships between the players and alumni are tight, and with information being told in the alumni board that was related to interpersonal relationships and strategy it was only a matter of time before something like this occured. You had placed a lot of trust into your alumni and a select few decided to abuse this. And I believe that in order for anything like this to not occur in the future is to draw a line between what is relevant to the game and what isnt.
Although its easy to use your platform to "call out" people, some will try their hardest to ruin it for those who want to play this game because the people they are rooting for could stand a chance of elimination.
I dont see how you posting information in the alumni forum about internal affairs is pertinent to them but I'm not the host, I'm just the player and I feel very disheartened that something like this occured.
I want to continue playing this game, as do the rest of us. Erik, Alyssa, you guys had this information and yet you refused to notify the production team. I dont "hate" or "disrespect" your attitudes, what I'm most concerned about is that this information was chosen to be hidden, when this could've been resolved a lot sooner and then this punishment of Alyssa being removed would not have happened.
Best of luck with your future endeavors. Sandy, I think that the alumni forum should be shut down totally. Thats just my opinion, you had trust in your people and there is not a 100% guarantee that the remaining alumni who can access the board will stick to the guidelines you set out. Also, I think that your professional attitude to the game has to be sharpened because as a "fan" of the series with no history and no knowledge of the "favs" who have competed before, i personally feel alienated from this as i am not aware of alumni behaviour.
Thats just my thoughts. Pick and pry them all you want. But remember that its a two-way street, the information was there and the trust was abused. Both parties are to blame.

Bye Alyssa.
Alyssa still gets to stay on the jury right? I'd hate for her to lose her jury spot over this too.

Because she was so honourable? =\

Obviously she wasn't but um if she aint on the jury then who would be???
I'm pissed off about this too y'know. I mean my game could have been jeopardized by the alumni leaking information. It was always something that worried me. And it is scary to know I was right to be afraid.
