"Oh it's awful, you're like 'Why did I say that, why didn't I defend myself better'. You go over and over it in your head and then watching it back you think 'Oh maybe I shouldn't have said that'."
"Looking back on it now, its like I had blinders on. If I was to do it all over again I'd go in, obviously make friends but not be so trusting."
"It's a pressure cooker environment, we are all so paranoid. We wanted to come to a solution, the solutions we came to made no sense."
"It was amazing, I never been part of a real life scenario that felt like a movie. It's out there man, it's so different."
Faye was banished at the penultimate roundtable and now replays her words, wishing she had defended herself differently. She says she had blinders on and would still make friends but be less trusting. Female players clashed, accusing the men of sitting back while they fought. The environment felt like a pressure cooker, with paranoia producing illogical solutions. Traitors Nick and Ben were behind Faye's banishment; Nick, who had befriended Faye, found the act brutal but strategically effective. Wilkin was murdered and compared the experience to an astronaut returning from another planet, choosing observation over vocal play as a strategy.
