adoptedwriter - You were one of the correct answers for "who would I trust with my life" - how does that make you feel? In a game that is about knowing who to trust, did that increase your confidence in "Hey, I might just be able to get to the end and win this thing!" You switched from Luzon to Asaga for a brief period during the swap, for all of the talk of how it's NOT about the old tribes anymore, coincidentally, since the merge, it's been old Asaga members going home. You were on a tribe with some of these people - does your heart go out to them? Or is it "it's just a game?"
Question #1: Wow! That’s kind of an honor. While it is no indicator of me winning the whole contest, it’s very nice to be thought of in this way. Question #2: My heart does go out to the former Asaga mates as well as others who have left the game in one way or another. Being voted off, having to drop due to life getting in the way, getting super sick...It all sucks when you can’t be in the writing part anymore. I mean, it is just a game in that if your personal livelihood and you and your family’s safety & well-being is in tact, then you need to keep that perspective. Still, especially now, when so many people are craving connections virtually because in-person experiences are few to non-existent, the Idol community becomes more meaningful than ever, and this event becomes more than just a game in that way. For me, COVID-19 aside, it’s always more than just a game in that this has been one way to grow as a writer, be challenged and build connections with others.
