Opening Statements

[Producer]

Here David and Erika will make their opening statements.

[Erika Landin]

Welcome back guys!

It's been a long road getting to this point. It's been a very interesting game; when I signed up, I didn't expect to make it to this point at all.

However, something happened early on in the game that gave me a goal. David and I made an alliance. Davika FTW! We've been tight knit from that point on, discussing every single thing that was going on in the game.

We made a "Final 4" deal with Matt and Ashlea, but we had to turn on them in the final 5. Once I won the Final Power of Veto, the reality of David and I making it here seemed more in reach than ever.

I've been through a lot of personal real life drama but I've stuck to this game. At this point, me and David become opponents, and I think we're both worthy of a win.

I look forward to answering any questions you have for me and I will answer them 100% honestly.

Thank you

Hey everyone!

Like Erika I had no idea what to suspect in the game. My strategy became keeping the target off of my back while trying to be in control of the decision making in the process. I tried to be as social in the game as possible in the begining, and even though it did have actual value of simply trying to get to know more about people, it served strategically as well. It did serve to help me win 2 socially driven HOH's and keep me off the block. As winner of... I believe 4 HOH's I feel it's an accomplishment not to be nominated even once in this game.
I feel that I have played the best social/strategic and competitively balanced game that I could, and I hope I can prove that to you with the questions you ask me

[David Lane]

I will be away today and most of tomorrow. But I will get back to these questions Asap when I get back!
