Well, I didn't mention yet that Jays answer to #12 doesn't match the one that was given, but I don't really want to put Jay up on the chopping block since it wouldn't help me at all either.

Yeah, I hear you. Plus, it's probably too late to put him up, I think. Voting's pretty much done.

That's why I didn't say anything earlier.

I like to think of myself as a fair guy.
I wouldn't want to really win at the expense of someone else's honest mistake.
Nor would I want it to happen to me.

Yeah...same here. I agonized over mentioning that Chris really should have gotten that question right for the same reason (he'd move into a tie with me and move JR down) but I felt it was the right thing to do.

I haven't looked at the answers yet, but if I should be up, then I need to be put up for eviction, folks. I am REALLY serious. Have a re-vote in the JCC if necessary. The LAST thing that I want is to have achieved ANYTHING unfairly.

I'm gonna PM Mel and Jess. happy

I've PM'd our two SEXPOTS, and asked them to re-do the eviction vote with me included. I haven't had a chance to go through all the answers yet, but I trust you guys, and wish this to be done as fairly as possible.

I've gotta get some work done but will pop back later.

Cheers!

Jay, I don't think it's an issue of fairness, my friend. The SEXPOTS have a fairly narrow window to boot all our butts outta here, so they can't afford to do revotes and wait 24 hrs to get results. Even if you recounted all the results, you'd still end up with a clear disparity between the top three and the bottom 3 in how we answered the questions (it'd be Chris-9, Me-9, You-7). The others were CHRIS-5, Dave-5, and Juliana-4. It's a pretty reasonable place to divide the "winners" and "losers", I think.

I can't imagine any of the players would think we need to do a revote. I could be wrong. We should make a poll!

Yep. It is. happy

If my real points total puts me in a position where I should be up, then it is only fair that I am. There could be loads of peeps out there who want me out, and it wouldn't be fair on the other 3 were I to not be included.

Nope. Sorry, but I disagree.

Mel's original intent was for there to be two clear winners and 4 up for eviction. It matters not a jot what my score is in relation to Juli, CHRIS and Dave's.

I should be up.
End of.

I have PM'd the ladies and I am asking for a re-vote.
I'm afraid they will need to find a way to make it work with a re-vote.

Otherwise I will merely evict myself.

I'm not going to stay in here when I should have been put up.
It's not fair, and I would not be happy with it at all.

Doesn't matter if they don't. I do.
And that is all that matters to me, my friend.

I have not come this far, to then feel that my place in here is in some way not justified. No way. I'm totally serious.

happy

Ok. I can respect that, Jay. I hear where you're coming from, I really do. I guess my concern is a logistical one. I certainly wouldn't want you to evict yourself because then the results--no matter what they are--would be tainted. Let's not go overboard here.

First, we do a group hug. Then you and I fight. I will only grab your ass three times during said fight, k?

As for the rest, I suppose a revote is doable (I don't think there's much of a chance of you getting voted out, though, honestly). If we do it today, then tomorrow we'd know the results, which gives us Monday-Wednesday to knock us down to just two in the house, which is what I think the goal is.

Just no self-evictions, please. happy

That's good, thanks. happy
Because the logistics do not concern me.

I wouldn't wish to either, especially after putting so much into the experience, but if Mel and Jess can't find a way to do it, then I will be going.

I have made my decision and that's final.

It's not going overboard, as far as I'm concerned. It's matter of principles. I have 'em, and I ain't about to lose 'em.

I'm sure it's doable. (And a lot of people didn't think Dani would get voted out either... wink )

Please see above for inability to make that promise. happy

No, I understand that completely. I think if I were in your shoes, I'd feel the same way.

Yeah. I hear you. I think that, at worst, it's an honest mistake. I'm sure this'll work itself out and we don't have to do anything too drastic. Maybe toss up another 24 hr vote. It'll be kinda rough given that some people already voted and we have to throw those out and all that stuff. But I think it's something we can work out.

The problem here is both sides are, for their own part, correct.

My own opinion is that if Jay wants to be put up for eviction, then it should be so. I think that will result in nobody being unhappy; Jay will feel he's done right by himself and others and we lose another 24 hours which hurts nobody (we'll just have to squeeze things up a little more next week).

Dear JR:

I am very sorry to have to tell you that you're staying put. Don't be disappointed--you will have another chance to be voted out very shortly.

Love,
