LIVID / Tree mail - 9.5

[Host]

In the words of Amanda Kimmell, I'm LIVID. I'm also hurt, disappointed, and I feel disrespected.

3 of eight people showed up to the challenge today. Three of 8.

I know that all of you are living your own lives, and I get that. One of the five of you had the decency to tell me that they would not be here, and that's Courtney.

The rest of you decided that it'd be alright to let me wait around wasting my time for you to not show up. Not only that, but I couldn't use the challenge that I had invested time into making.

I am so disappointed.

From now on, if you cannot make the challenge you MUST TELL ME so that you don't waste my time ever again. send me a pm, I'm me, leave a confessional, post in the tree mail. If you don't you'll receive a strike. Two strikes and you're out. I'd prefer that so much more than for you guys to just leave me out to dry.

So, as a result of this Yau-man, Jason, and Lil are immune at tomorrow's vote, as is Courtney for letting me know that she wouldn't be here.

That means that Frosti, Jan, Darrah, or Colby will be leaving.

the votes tomorrow at 9:00pm est. it is live. I expect to see you there, and if not, you better have told me.

[Colby Donaldson]

Seriusly?? Did you ever thought that maybe people ''planned'' to be here but couldnt make it because of something? Like ME for example? How in hell am i supposed to predict what's going to happen at next hour?? Seriusly..

[Host]

I'm asking you to let me know, that's all colby. And you've been gone 4 challenges running, so you have no excuse out of anyone.

[Colby Donaldson]

Did you even realize that i was even out for my OWN game? All of that is because of last minute issues so excuse me for not knowing the future and anticipating what's going to happen to me like in 10 minutes..

[Host]

Look, the bottom line is that when I ask people to join a game, or when they sign up out of their own will I expect a certain level of participation from them. I understand that people, like Courtney, have regular schedules that prevent them from always being here, but not showing up to several challenges in a row (four specifically) is a bit unusual and causes me to seriously question your committment level.

Nothing I've said here has been untrue, or uncalled for. I'm telling you what I think of this situation, and I know that it's not unreasonable, and it should be obvious.

None the less your responses have been incredibly inconsiderate. Especially with the last "eye-roll" smiley that you added. I've spent a lot of my time and energy on this game, and I will not tolerate rude or argumentative behaviour for I have done nothing wrong by posting this message.

Out Play is an important part of this game, and unfortunately you've chosen not to "play" in many of these challenges. Ultimately the ownus will be on you to describe why you should win, if you should make it to the finals, but that's irrelevant.

Take a step back, absorb what I wrote, and try and think about how the absense of so many players at these challenges makes me feel.

I'm done arguing, and I'm done dwelling on the effects that this may have on how you perceive me both as a host and as a person.

With that said Colby, please try and give me notice if you should choose not to participate in future challenges. Or, please let me know afterwards that you had a last minute change of plans.

The same goes for the rest of you.

See you all tomorrow for the next tribal council.

pre-vote if you won't be there, or as always you will receive a self-vote (2 and you're out)

[Colby Donaldson]

This has nothing to do with what i think about you. Im sorry if it sounded that way.

Im sorry if i offended you, i was pissed and i got carried on. My apologies.

I wont be around tonight, Sabbath Time.

[Host]

I'm glad to hear it colby, I appreciate the appology and I appologize also. I'm glad to here that this won't effect how we see each other.

Thanks for letting me know that you won't be around.

[Yau-man Chan]
