sin #3 avarice: greed is to be found guilty of wanting more possessions than one already has. usually it is to desire more money but that is not necessarily the case.

As the challenge was over at 10:07 and the episode was over at 10:37 and it is now 10:45, I hope that I can talk about this without penalty. I need to say this now in case I don't get to return tomorrow. I don't want there to be any hard feelings towards me because of something I actually did for the good of the team.
At the beginning of episode 4 there was a private challenge for me in my personal forum. The challenge was easy enough, I just had to personally insult two of my fellow players. I would put $1 in the jackpot for each insult, but if I insulted either Michael or Alison (because they were in the two high spots on my likeability list) I would get an additional $1. I could put a total of $3 in the jackpot.
Something that Justin said came to my mind, "It's hard to know when to play the game and when to be a friend." I started to just ignore the challenge because I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings just for a silly game and a few measly bucks. But then I thought about how small our jackpot was and how I had chosen not to put $5 in the pot so that I could get an XX in the last episode. So, in an effort to get back some of that money I made one of the hardest decisions in my life....to willfully hurt someone's feelings. I knew that I would be able to apologize within 24 hours, but it still hurt me to hurt you two, even if for only one day.
I chose Joel because I was honestly angry about what he had said about Justin; however, I never meant for my insult to bring about the landslide of vicious comments he has since recieved. For that I am truly sorry.
I then chose Alison because Michael and I had just been through a private argument and I didn't want to add anything else to that pain.
Alison, I do not think that you are a coward or a goody-goody and I believe that you are every bit as nice as you seem to be. It was so very hard for me to say those things to you. I am so sorry.
I hope that the two of you will understand that I did this for the team and I hope that you will be able to forgive me. –sandee

I recieved the exact same challenge. I chose to insult Joel coz' everyone else was mad at him at the time. Joel: I really hope I didn't hurt you or anything. To be truthful, I wasn't even mad at you in the first place and thats why I regret doing it. I'm REALLY sorry for that and I hope you can forgive me for my senseless behavior. –omar

Sandee, no worries. I also received the same challenge. I knew what it was about. But I also thought that if it looked like I took offense, maybe the barrage on Joel would stop.. That was painful to watch. I feel really bad about not trying for the $3, but not as bad as I'd have felt if I won it. It's just not in my nature, and I said so in my personal forum. I hold no bad feelings about whoever was able to complete that challenge. I didn't realize you had it too until you said those things to Joel... And when you said them to me, I knew you must have, but I couldn't let you know that I figured it out. So I just responded in my quick wit, sarcastic comment way... (P.S. if you ever do see an insult from me, I never, ever mean them, they are meant sarcastically funny, like Chandler on Friends... my same sense of humor.)
Omar, when I saw what you wrote, I figured a few of us probably received the same challenge... Hopefully we've added $4 for it... But that isn't the kind of money I'm here to win... I like to really work for it, and it looks like both of you guys worked... If it takes an emotional toll like that, it's work. –alison

Alison, thanks for responding. I thought I was the only person with that challenge. I wish I had known because today was my birthday, but I couldn't enjoy it because I was so worried that you wouldn't forgive me. Those producers really are scoundrels, aren't they? –sandee

With a touch of evil... –alison

Guess what guys, I received the same challenge and I also took a stab at Joel and then at Jeff. I am sorry and I meant nothing by it. I was also in the same position as you Sandee and I chose not to add fuel to our fire. I would never intentionally hurt you Scarlette! Good luck today everyone! –michael

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDEE!!!! Why didn't you tell us earlier? We could have had a party! –omar

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLIN"! –michael

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! I did have a great day. –sandee

Damn, I'm sorry Sandee, I forgot about your birthday, and you JUST told me... Really, Really, sorry... Happy Belated Birthday! –alison

I would have had a much better dau if I hadn't have been worried about you getting mad at me. Every time I started to enjoy myself I heard a voice in my head "You called Alison a coward......she's hurt.......she's mad at you." My hubby took me shopping and I couldn't find anything I wanted. Can you believe that?? I got a computer game, RETURN TO KONDOR. It's an RPG, those are my favorite type of games. And my parents gave me $100! Whoohoo! –sandee

Well, there was nothing to worry about, but I couldn't really tell you that. I'm sorry... Next time hubby takes you shopping, buy 2 pretty things, and know I don't have any hard feelings. –alison
