Eliza, what did you think of our spec based on your ep.1-4 edit that you'd make it to the endgame? I was thinking you, Cirie, and Parv would end up working together and Amanda\Ami with her early UTR edits would get bumped off.

Day One - Eliza and Parvarti two-shot dragging shelter wood. Eliza: "I think we have a good group. I hope we win." BUT USED TO BEGIN PARVATI'S FIRST STRATEGY CONFESSIONAL

After Ep.4 I posted:

Parvati and Eliza might end up being the most richly edited relationship in the game. Parv is shown interacting more with her than with James, Amanda, or anyone else.

I suspect they will be Frienemies, alternately friends and enemies, allies and rivals.
Ep.1 - they talk in a friendly way while gathering wood, but become targets of opposite alliances
Ep.3 - Parv's team tries to recruit Eliza as a fifth, but E is suspicious
Ep.4 - Eliza tries to get back in with Parv, but P is suspicious (note parallel)

Their scene in ep.4 was setting up future events. Should Eliza ally with Parv over Jonathan? Should Parvati trust Eliza?
If they are switched together, expect them to become BFF until the merge and target the fans (a couple of whom will be clearly weaker than Eliza). But postmerge, you know Eliza will want to target James before Parv does. Eliza vs James has been set up, and my money is on Eliza.

In the end, I could see them both as finalists, or I could see Eliza casting the deciding vote for Parv. Their destinies in the game are intertwined, much like my avatar.

PS: I gave you P in your boot episode.

I think the speculation in Edgic that I made it to the endgame was completely warranted based on my edit (although no damn opening confessional!). I think the editors all do love me, actually, I know they do. They've told me. So they showed me as much as they could in the time I had there making it seem like I made it to the end. I think I got a unique edit because of how articulate I am (oh and not to mention humble). haha. I'm impressed that you called I would cast the winning vote for Parvati, because I did!!

Yay, Eliza is here, too!

For those who are tempted to ask her questions (aren't we all?), please note that in the Sucks subcategory, she's got a thread stickied by the moderators, where she's fielding questions left and right, including some that have been asked here, above. Let's try to keep this thread to Edgic/editing, or at least questions related to edit, for the most part...

That said: Eliza, what did you think of Natalie's edit, to be SO hidden for so long when she obviously has a very entertaininig personality? besides the "4th place phantom" edit that Darrah, Jenn, and Denise got, do you know of any reason she would be so hidden? What did we miss about her from newAirai?

I was surprised how little she was shown in the early stages, but I think she was hiding herself in the beginning, maybe even to the cameras. I think she came out of her shell towards the end and you got to see the real Nat.

Hi Eliza and thanks for some eye-popping entertainment.

Three things, if you're inclined to answer:

1. Did you deliberately take so long in the voting booth when voting for the winner? It looked like you took even longer than the edited version
a) for entertainment purposes and b) so you could have one last dig at the F2.

2, Did you think that season-long battering they showed you being subjected to was an acurate reflection of how it felt? I mean I thought that you would miss the end-game simply because they edited you as having too many hurdles to overcome but did it actually feel like you were physically beaten up as well as having few options strategically?

3. Did anybody ever mention what would happen in the event of a tie?

Thanks again for being such an astute player and such a good sport.

I did not intentionally take that long in the voting booth, I was just really torn!! Also, Erik usually spent at least 5 minutes in the voting booth since he made drawings on all his votes and that was never shown so I never IMAGINED they would show how long it took me to decide (which was really probably only a minute or two). But it was HILARIOUS! I loved it.

I did have way too many hurdles to overcome. I got beaten up and beaten down and with my sickness and my alliance getting torn apart, it was a lot to deal with. I fought my hardest til the last possible second. I was never one to give up and say "oh well, guess I'm next to go." The producers all knew that about me and loved me for it, but at the point I got voted off, there was pretty much nothing I could do!
