“This week's 
journal 
entry will be quite humorous. The players are making it too easy for me 
to do 
my molish duties.”

“That will be the perfect "clue" at the end of the show when you show 
clues 
given about The Mole... works perfectly.”

“Should I start messing up some challenges? Are there 
any 
other private messages that are going on in the group. What were their 
reasons for thinking that I am the mole? Should I continue to try to 
look 
like I'm trying to win money? It looks like the 
Jennifer-go-for-the-money 
scheme isn't working. Should I start to blatantly mess up to look like 
the 
Steve pretend mole? What do you think?”

“I'm hoping that when John gets executed for not thinking that I am The Mole 
the others that he has been leading my way will change their minds and move 
to another Mole target. But with Jamie probably going this week because 
inactivity it will leave John around for at least one more week. As soon as I 
can get rid of John the people that John has been telling that he thinks that 
I am the Mole should change their thoughts too. So now it is a game of 
getting rid of John and the rest should change their suspicions. I think that 
as long as John continues with his plan of telling these people that I am the 
Mole when he goes they will think that he was wrong. 

Thoughts? 

I see why Kathryn said that it was so stressful. LOL... But I'm loving it. It 
is a wonderful challenge.” 

Thu, 5 Apr 2001 22:35:35 EDT
“ Well, I totally understand what Kathryn meant about the stress 
involved with being The Mole. I think that the number one stress is having to 
lie to so many people. John came to me in trust. I had to take this trust and 
totally twist it to the point that it would mean that he would probably go 
before most of the other players. It makes it easier that this is done 
through a computer and I don't have to face him, but there is a part of me 
that hates doing this to me. 
      Stephanie is a nice girl also, but the best strategy is to stick close 
to the person that you think is the Mole. If she thinks that I am The Mole 
she is doing a great job of sticking with me. 
      At this point I think that Gina may be on to me. I think that her 
little "Larry is The Mole" joke in the main chat room was either a nod to 
Jason and/or Daniel that she thinks that I am The Mole based on my 
performance in our challenge group. This may have been a secret code that 
they are using to communicate because they ran out of messages in the message 
center. OR she thinks that I am The Mole and is trying to be obvious about it 
hoping that the other players will think "Oh if she thought that he was The 
Mole she wouldn't have said it out in the open like that." I really think 
that it was definitely some kind of strategy for her picking my name as the 
hypothetical mole. 
      This is something funny. Either John or Stephanie is lying to me about 
messages. John told me that he was talking to Stephanie via the message 
center and Stephanie said that she hasn't gotten any messages. One of them is 
lying.. and it kind of makes me mad. But the funny thing is that I am lying 
to them both without reservation and I have the gumption to get angry about 
them lying to me. LOL 
      My mission this episode was to win some money and go for the goal. I 
wanted to look like a total player. Stephanie slipped up in the hotel room by 
discussing the challenge and I accidentally went along with it. I fear that 
people may find this a Mole-Like activity. But it also looks like someone 
trying to look like the Mole that is just a player. In the challenge room I 
pretended to try very hard to get the producers to give us the challenge, 
knowing full-well that I wanted to be fined and be fined heavily. I wonder if 
Gina fell for it. 
      I actually tried to win the topic challenge, because honesty I'm nosy 
and wanted to see the dossiers of some of the players. LOL. When the host 
said that someone was kind off topic with a post I thought that it could have 
full-well been my post about my friend being killed in a drunk driving 
accident. I thought that it went along but it might not have. I figure that 
some others thought that it went along with it too so I made no attempt to 
post anything else. If it was mine.... let the challenge fail because of it 
and no one would be the wiser. 
      I now also see why Kathryn cried during the last challenge in the 
hotel challenge. One of the stresses is being a good Mole and not letting 
down the producers that picked you. The stress builds up but it is fun. It's 
interesting trying to sabotage and still look innocent, but not too innocent. 
I guess that it would be even more stressful if I had to actually take an 
X-quiz though. LOL

“Hey wanted to clear the air about the challenge. I'm just trying to look 
desperate for Immunity. Not really trying to stir something up.”

Thu, 12 Apr 2001 21:47:16 EDT
“I think that I tried everything in the book to take myself out of the 
challenge quickly so that they could mess themselves up. I didn't want to 
accidentally find Daniel, but I also didn't want to look bad for running 
around in circles. So I had to take my chances and take the logical route. 
Luckily I entered three buildings and didn't find him and was captured soon 
after. Dave did a fine job of looking like the Mole. Me, Annette and John 
were the only people that saw it, but as long as John thinks that Dave is the 
Mole I will be OK. The more people that John tells that he thinks that I am 
the Mole (per our plan) the better I'll be when he is gone. 
      I hated to see Stephanie go. I really liked her. The people that I 
like the most are the ones that I am having to deceive the most. At this rate 
my 3 fav. people will fall one bay one. Stephanie, John and Tine. The life of 
a Mole. It's a rough one.”

“This challenge may have been the easiest to sabotage thus far. By putting 
myself in the position of trying for an XX I was able to openly sabotage the 
mission without anyone really noticing. To get an XX I had to I had to stop 
the team from getting more correct answers than I could in the Tic Tac Toe 
Challenge. It looked like I was going for an XX, but in actuality all that I 
was doing was trying to make it impossible for the team to win the challenge. 
I didn't really care if I actually got an XX or not, but I had to make it 
look like I was desperate for one. I went so far as to stage an argument with 
the producers about answers that I submitted in the challenge. After I knew 
that I had messed up Annette and Daniel's chances of beating or the money, 
thus ruining the whole challenge I was able to just sit back, because an XX 
wasn't important. In the other group I had to continue to make join think 
that I am still a real player. I did this by looking like I was going for the 
XX. His computer problems coupled with Tine's absence allowed me to actually 
win an XX. I hope that this made some players start to doubt me less, because 
I won an XX. 

I didn't expect Stephanie to go so soon. I thought that Tine would be the 
next to go. I played up Stephanie as a second place Mole suspect to John. 
John seems convinced that Dave is The Mole, he seems to be out thinking 
himself. I hope that Dave doesn't go anywhere soon. I've started planting 
seeds of doubt about Gina in his mind as a backup if Dave gets executed. If 
John tells everyone that he thinks that I am the Mole I will be in a good 
spot when he gets the boot. I hate to say it, but John has become The Mole's 
sacrificial lamb. I am having to completely use John. Like the promo says... 
"The Mole will lie to your face."

Sun, 22 Apr 2001 14:41:12 EDT
“I need some quick advice. How am I supposed to give the answers for this 
challenge? Dave is confused and honestly so am I. I have the answers here, 
but the only way that I could win this is just by giving it away.  Like Dave 
I also have no idea how to read the girl's response.  Rereading the rules of 
the challenge again. ”

Sun, 22 Apr 2001 19:27:44 EDT
“This one has been my favorite mission to sabotage so far. I felt totally in 
control of the situation here. I knew where I needed each player to be. I was 
told what groups to put them in but I had to find a way to quietly put them 
in those groups. I knew that if I just made a bold suggestion of where people 
should go in the main chat room it would sound some alarms, so I had to find 
a puppet -- Enter John. I used John's paranoia about Annette spending too 
much time with who he thought was the cybermole- Dave. So I worked it out 
where John suggested the groups just the way that I wanted them. With Annette 
alone getting an XX. With me in a challenge group with an inactive Tine. And 
with John, Dave, Gina and Jason together. John thought that he came out on 
top getting the best notes on Dave. I knew that Gina was acting like the 
cybermole she would probably cost that group the challenge in an attempt to 
look like the cybermole. That left me and Tine together. Tine hadn't been 
around for the whole episode. I got into the challenge room. Put up a few 
posts "looking" for Tine and asked a question about the challenge. The 
challenge that I never even started. When I saw how hard that this challenge 
was I knew that everyone would understand that I couldn't do it without 
Tine's help. Not to mention that I wasted SO much time in the forming of the 
groups. I can't take the credit for the wasted time. The indecisive nature of 
the group did that well enough. When we finally got into the challenge I only 
had a day. "I only had less than a day and with Tine gone I was all alone!!!" 
*sob sob* It was set up for me SO well to just sit back and let the challenge 
fail.”

Sun, 22 Apr 2001 23:37:03 EDT
“Are there any chances of Gina getting a dossier this episode? I'm considering 
lying to her about some of the info that she ask me for, but I want to make 
sure that she doesn't get a dossier before my false info gets rid of her if 
she thinks that I am the Cybermole. Talk to you later.”

Wed, 25 Apr 2001 14:00:39 EDT
“Hey, 

      OK at first I was just trying to waste time, but now I'm totally lost. 
Suggestions where should I go back to or where should I have gone? Am I 
allowed to get help on this challenge from the producers? ”

Fri, 27 Apr 2001 15:13:05 EDT
“Hey, 

      Just out of curiosity who all in the group can speak Spanish? Other 
than myself who else had taken Spanish classes? ”

Fri, 27 Apr 2001 16:59:51 EDT
“"Fallen Comrades" LOL I just mentioned "fallen comrade" Stephanie to John in 
a message. Another great way in the "what the mole did" part of the last 
episode. I was just using that term because it was the second to last 
immunity challenge on Season 1 of Survivor, but hey it works as a hint to the 
viewer in this game to. 

Talk to you later. ”

“Did John switch his suspicion over to me?”

Mon, 30 Apr 2001 14:18:48 EDT
“Dave's surprise execution threw a major kink into my plan. I had previously 
been leading two people... Gina and John in the direction of Dave. Well, 
actually I was letting John believe that he was leading me in that direction. 
I knew that I had to work FAST if I wanted to cover my tracks when Dave got 
executed. I had to look desperate. I messaged John immediately and kicked of 
the topic challenge like I need a dossier really badly. I knew that if Gina 
switched her suspicion to me that I would still be OK because I had given her 
all false information about me in the previous episode. Even if she was on to 
me she would still be eliminated by answering the X-quiz completely wrong. 
Once again John playing the leader switched to Annette and I just went along 
with it. I have been careful to not suggest suspects to John. I let him 
suggest them to me and I go along with him. I will occasionally suggest a 
second suspect like Stephanie or Gina, just in case suspect number one goes. 
That way he won't think that I was trying to stir him the wrong way. So now 
I'm going along with his Annette theory. John should be the next to go. And I 
covered myself with the viewer by saying that I would sacrifice John because 
he was too good in his note taking. I couldn't afford to have him in the 
final three with me. 
      On this last challenge my main tactic was to waste time. I took as 
long as I could without looking suspicious. I knew Spanish and Google.com 
even translates text for you. So I found the answers early and took my time 
posting them. Funny thing is that I made a mistake and ended up in Toledo 
which was right outside of Madrid. I thought that I was in the right place 
but I wasn't. So I figured that I would waste some money and ask a stupid 
question. I got my answer and thought well OK I'm going to go to Madrid now. 
I've wasted more than enough time.. uh nope. I had to retrace my steps which 
wasted even more time. I decided not to share google with anyone and hoped 
that someone didn't speak Spanish and would be screwed. I figured that this 
would be a great sabotage because only the host knew that I had taken years 
of Spanish. The group would think that I took so long because of a language 
barrier. 
      Gina hadn't been very active on the main board. Only in our hotel room 
so I knew that she would probably take a while in the challenge too. And Gina 
and Annette got in a fight about it which made them both look like the 
cybermole. I set the pace for the challenge a slow one that costed us the 
money.”

“Sounds great. Sounds like a good plan. 

I really like the way that the game turned out. It seemed to work out 
perfectly. From my first confessional being about not liking Jason to him 
being in the final three with me. The game was VERY well put together and I 
have enjoyed every day of it. I hope that I can help you out in some aspect 
of The Cybermole Project II. ”

Fri, 4 May 2001 12:38:27 EDT
“Should I help out the players and post some answers? Do they need me to help 
them add some money to the jackpot? Or I can make this my last cybermole act 
and let the clock run out while not posting an official answer post.”


Fri, 4 May 2001 12:53:12 EDT
“I think that I'll just let the clock run out. If they are going to let it run 
out and not try for the money I guess I'll let it go and hope to get a 
cybermole bonus. LOL 

I feel like Kathryn trying to call Jim and Steven while they play around on 
the phone during the hotel challenge. LOL”

Fri, 4 May 2001 13:40:07 EDT
“Since the train challenge will not be on the final episodes I guess that I 
don't need to talk about it. If I do just let me know. 

I wonder if the groups wants to win any money at all in this game. In the 
replacement challenge I had found at least one picture of all of the things 
that we needed to look for. I added just enough to make it look like I was 
helping with the challenge and just sat on the rest of the pictures that I 
found. It is almost like they weren't even trying to win. If I found them I 
know at least one other player had to have found the same pictures. Jason 
added to making himself look like the cybermole by helping VERY little with 
the challenge and not adding any relevant pictures. They are making it way 
too easy to sabotage. Where is the challenge? 
      The worst part of this episode was knowing that this was the week that 
John had to go. He was completely off track and his luck was about to run 
out. His last hope would have been an XX, but when I found out that one would 
not be obtainable I knew that he was about to get the boot.”

“The last Journal of the cybermole. :( 

This episode was really fun. I really enjoyed looking back at everyone that 
has gone before. And surprisingly I was only sad about one person in 
particular going and that was John. He was such and amazing player with the 
best notes and he just chose to approach the wrong person to be in an 
alliance with him. Each time that I had to lie to him I knew that he was one 
step closer to going home. I think that he would have one if he would have 
joined forces with Jason. 

This episode allowed me to throw one last kink in the game. I was able to 
pretend to confess to a players alliance with John. This made it look like 
there was no way that I was the cybermole. Why would the cybermole join an 
alliance with another player? Now they think that John and I were on the same 
team and he was just less lucky than I was. And it was fun playing all of 
this up for the audience. I've loved having to pretend to send John in the 
wrong direction and being pissed that I had to "tip my hand" about being in 
the alliance. 

Once again the players let another challenge slip right on out of their 
grasps. I asked if there needed to be an official post. Jason answered yes, 
but didn't make it. I was careful to not post anything on the main board this 
morning. I wanted to look like I hadn't been back to the board since I asked 
the question. Truth is that I've been on the board all morning and I just sat 
and watched the clock tick away and they lost another 25 dollars because no 
one pasted an answer.”
