From first to worst! Don't get me wrong, I love irony, but this juxtaposition is down right staggering!!!
In case y'all don't know yet, I'm Paul. AKA:
Allison's 'assumed' lapdog.
Adriana's 'semi-inactive lapdog'.
Tyson's (almost) ticket to winning the game for the Spies.
And last, but certainly not least, half of the winning team of Spies 2, Karl.
Ta-da, bitches!
I'm not one to toot my own horn. If you saw my overly modest posts after winning Spies 2, you know that. (I still say I was a lame Citizen.) But I can say this with 100% honest to God conviction: You guys fucked up, and lost a valuable asset. I didn't have a role this time, and I was okay with that. I didn't want a trust group to shield me. I wanted to play this game straight up, and I was going to go balls to the wall. But y'all didn't give me the chance. Your loss.
I'm not going to lie. I was going into that Exile a little worried because I had no idea who most people were voting for. (A first for me in Spies history!) I knew I could have been voted out, that didn't surprise me. It's who voted for me that made my jaw drop. I've been voted out of games before. I've been blindsided. I've been betrayed. But I'm not going to lie, this one stung.
The thing that makes me angry is that people thought I was a Spy because I didn't discuss much in depth. Let's look at some quotes from my confessional, shall we? And just for you, Sam, bullet form!
I WANTED to talk game. It's just some of you didn't give me a chance. Oh well, that's life, c'est la vie. Someone had to go first, this time it was me. The one thing that upsets me is that I was planning on changing my vote from Carrie to Tyler because Reicheru said she actually talked to her. Had I not overslept, I'd still be in this game right now. So as much as I want to hate on people, I guess I have no one to blame but myself. So, some final words to my fellow players, I guess...
I'm really hoping the Spies win. And notice the lack of bitter tags. I truly feel that way. I think that Spies need to win in order to give the series a little more validity. Gotta give hope to future Spies. Assuming there are future games, of couse.
Also, I'd like to request Sam that you do not force Tyler out of the game. Again, notice the lack of bitter tags. Normally I'd be all for booting his lame ass out of the game, I really would. But his inactivity has become a focal point of the story line for this game. At the revote, everyone knew what they were getting themselves into. Yet two people decided to switch their vote to me instead of the inactive. If you remove Tyler from the game, it makes that decision meaningless. They made their bed, force them to lie in it.
All that being said, I wish you all the best of luck. I may be bitter or angry at some of you now. But it's a game, I'll get over it. When it all comes to a close, I'll happily shake all your hands on a game well played. Figuratively speaking, of course!

- Some of these people are really playing up their characters. And that's all well and good for them. But these conversations about fictional lives are starting to wear on me. Frankly, I don't care about Jessica's son or Judith's cat, for the simple reason that THEY DON'T EXIST! I'm ready for the game talk to start.
- Jessica's another person I've only had conversations with regarding her character. I'm not ready to condemn her for it yet, but if she doesn't stalk talking game soon I'm going to be suspect. Spies have a tendancy to hide behind their characters.
- Judith is another who is heavily into character. She has done a little bit of game talk, which is reassuring. The one thing I don't like is that she's got this maternal thing going on. No one is going to suspect the sweet little old lady. Which in itself is suspect.
I WANTED to talk game. It's just some of you didn't give me a chance. Oh well, that's life, c'est la vie. Someone had to go first, this time it was me. The one thing that upsets me is that I was planning on changing my vote from Carrie to Tyler because Reicheru said she actually talked to her. Had I not overslept, I'd still be in this game right now. So as much as I want to hate on people, I guess I have no one to blame but myself. So, some final words to my fellow players, I guess...
- Anneliese - Oh how I wish you would have been at the Exile. I'm pretty sure you would have voted against Tyler. Sure, I still would have gone, but 7-6 is better than 7-5. You're a lovely person and I was greatly looking forward to playing with you. But it just wasn't ment to be. Go get 'em!
- Arthur - Thanks for having my back. It was a moot point, but you came into the chat with no idea what was going on and were told to choose between me and Tyler, and you sided with me. I appreciate that. Another person who I didn't know, but wanted to get to know. I wish you the best of luck.
- Carrie - Who? I never got the chance to talk to you. So I really can't be too mad at you for switching your vote to me.
- Jack - I hate your character, and talking to you was like talking to a brick wall. But that being said, you seem like a very smart guy. I think you have potential to rock this game. Do-it to-it, man!
- Jennipher - I'm a little disappoined that you swithed your vote to me, but less so then I am dissapoined in others. Honestly, I think you're a Spy. Why? You had to choose between and inactive, and someone who was playing the game. Of course the Spy would chose the player. And if that's the case, then I applaud you. So I think I'm just going to assume you're a Spy until I know for sure otherwise. It's easier on my fragile psyche.
- Jessica - [bitter]You're the first person I want to say a big FUCK YOU to! The only conversations I had with you, you asked if I looked down on you because you were a whore and whined about your bastard son. Then you vote for me because you "never felt made a stretch to talk about strategy or anything game related"?! Yeah, eat me, bitch![/bitter]
- Judith - Spy, spy, spy, spy, a thousand times over Spy. You're playing the nurturer card too damn hard. [bitter]Oh, and you get a big FUCK YOU, too. Like I care about your osteoporsis.[/bitter] Another person hiding beind their character.
- Leena - I never got a chance to have a serious conversation with you, so I can't hate on you as much as I'd like to.
- Miles - Same goes for you as well.
- Reicheru - Let me quote from my confessional. "Reicheru I like, and is someone I can see myself working with a lot in this game. Hopefully she's not a Spy. She seem very smart." You were in my top three favorite people. Possibly number one! And you do me like this? You're the one I am most dissapointed in. I really am. And I can't compensate for it by saying you did it because you're a Spy, because I don't think you are. You genuinely hurt my feelings. Oh, and of course, [bitter]FUCK YOU![/bitter]
- Shane - Another of my favorites, and one who stood by me. If you're a Citizen, God I hope you win. I really do. If I could leave you with one piece of advice, it'd be give Jack a chance. Is he a Spy? Maybe. But if he's not, he'll be a solid ally. Don't give up on him, make him talk to you!
- Tenchi - Like Shane, I'm pulling for you, too. Win, you crazy Asian bastard, win! My word of advice to you, get over your love affair with Reicheru. She's already proven she's not trustworthy. Don't let her do you like she did me.
- Tyler - [bitter]Fuckoff, cockass...[/bitter]
