Congratulations Russell on being the 12th Robber of the game. You must now decide whether you will steal from Silas, or from the vault, and what you will do with your loot. |

Alright, after going back and reading the rules of "how to play" I think I have this understood.
Let me tell you that I did give this some thought. Not enough to keep me up at night, it's not that big of deal but when someone comes to me, wanting to throw themselves onto a sword and beg for another life in lieu of their own. Well I had to give that some serious consideration. I mean I know what its like to not feel as if you deserve final 3, or final 2, or final 4... I've been in that position many times. It's not fun! BUT on the other hand, nobody should be at this point in the game who didn't want to be, right? I mean I can think of a few names who would rather be here right now then where they are and not be willing to quit the game for any reason.
-sigh- but still, I'm a sympathetic person who is able to reason things out.
Tracy, we talked about this, you and me, as we've talked about a lot for the past couple of weeks. Making decisions together as we have. And let me tell you, it's been kind of nice to be included in on something other then being someone's number #5  I do thank you for that! It's been fun...
but... and... well.... I would hate to betray your trust now, at this stage of the game ... however... 
Ahhh Shucks I'm kidding, I'm not going to!
So therefore, I choose to take FOUR of Silas's Gems (the ruby, the sapphire, that DIAMOND and that Emerald...), Brett can have the rest of the junk.
I am choosing to keep THREE of those gems for myself and I will give one of those gems to Tracy (but not that diamond).

Thank you Russell  And you gotta wonder if that same person would've been claiming to be so undeserving of Final Three if it were you or me in danger eh  |

It only had to do with the fact that I hadn't won competitions until the previous robber comp. but i've had allies along the way. people would say the same thing about you

Frankly I think I do and even if others disagree, I could careless. LOL. I've given 99% (missed a couple of challenges there in Dec.) of myself to truly participating in this game AND have enjoyed 97% of the game too boot. So therefore, I think I'm very deserving of where I am!  |

So therefore, I think I'm very deserving of where I am! We all did something to get ourselves to the end, we're all deserving of the spot. Brett, you obviously made the right connections. The game is not just about winning challenges, I mean, according to Silas AFTER I won two challenges back to back I was undeserving lmao If only one person won every single challenge in the game, can someone say that everyone else is undeserving of being in the game? No, because it's what you do to stay in the game that makes a difference. You deserve your spot in the Final Three Brett, it's as simple as that. The only way you would be undeserving is if you NEVER showed up, NEVER did a challenge and NEVER voted, but got dragged the whole way and the host was foolish enough not to kick you out lmao |

I do thank you for that! It's been fun...
