Hey Ladies!!! Well congrats to both of you!!!!
Lisa, we were in a tight alliance with each other since Day 1, as well. But unlike Lawon, I really don't know your gameplay. So I will ask what was your strategy going into this game? When did it change (if it did)? and Why do you deserve my vote instead of Rachel?
Rachel, let me just tip off my hat off to you. Congratulations!! Like with Lisa, I really don't know your strategy in this game. So I will ask you what was your strategy? What was YOUR biggest move in this game? Do you believe Lisa carried you into the final 2 and why?
Good luck Ladies!! Congrats again!

Strategy was to throw comps in the beginning to be perceived as a non threat and to win in the end. Although I'm really not that good at comps as when I tried to win I still couldn't beat you guys. x.x I made a solid alliance to go against the other main alliance in the game, but as I've said in other threads we missed our chance when Steven went out with the twist. If that didn't happen Dom/Steven/Myself could have been in control of the game potentially and maybe then if I was in power you guys wouldn't be saying I played "under the radar".
Biggest move was being honest with Lisa and telling her I was voting her out. Then coming back to her after that and making a final 2 deal with her.
She did not carry me to the final 2. I don't know how much convincing I did for her to honor my final 2 deal with her, but I'll give you 2 scenarios James.
Do you think I masterfully got Lisa to backstab you and Lawon to take me to the final 2. Got her to trust me after I just voted her out.
or..
Do you think Lisa had no confidence in herself to beat you or Lawon so instead of being a loyal ally member she backstabbed you guys back to back thinking she could beat me in the finals.
Now if you take option A or option B, in my eyes both options do not make Lisa look good. They both make me look good. If you still feel Lisa carried me, you must come up with an option C because I don't see that there is one.

I just want to first comment on Rachel's answer. Her biggest mistake in this game was telling me that she was voting me out. Had she not done that, I might have not used my power. So accepting my offer for an alliance was her best move, not convincing me or whatever she is trying to sell. I asked her for that alliance, not the other way around.
As I did answer in Lawon's question, I had no strategy. I came into the game with the "let the chips fall where they may" strategy, no pun intended with the Vegas theme. But, I will answer in that once I was aligned with you and Lawon, my goal was to make it to the end with us three. Now, my strategy changed when I realized I was clearly the 3rd wheel. I did not want anyone to get hurt with my decisions and I am sorry if they did hurt anyone, but it wasn't my intention. For example, if you watch this season of Survivor, Edna & Cochran knew from the get go that they were the bottom of the totem pole and in no way did they try to make a move to benefit their game. Instead they waited until they were stuck to switch up the game. I made mine when I had a place to fall back on and I put myself in the best position of the game when it came to the finals.
As far as why I should get your vote over Rachel, that's because I played the game. It wasn't my lack of confidence, that made me not be loyal and get you and Lawon out, it's because I needed to let you guys go to win the game. Do I think that I would have won against either of you? I really don't know the answer to that, but I would have still tried to win over the jury, no matter what. It's what I'm doing now, and I needed to do it for me. I didn't play for anyone else.
