Finale Confessionals
Ben- Okay well this was SUPPOSED to be for last round and my thoughts on it but Torsa couldnāt get her shit together so yeah I had to upload it instead.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYBx3Hu79a0 idk if this is gonna work i hope it dose donāt make fun of me i donāt do these things reality is an illusion and the universe is a hologram buy gold bye!!!11111
Catherine- So im really hoping i win immunity, as long as Ben doesnāt win it i think i can make it to the end. Lachlan and i are close and we get to the end together. Literally if i get out at 4th i will murder someoneā¦again
Ben- Well it was a fun game at least : ~ ) oh well I guess 4th place suits me.
Ben- Well friends, it seems like your fave just got slayed.
Iām probably getting out but I have hashtag no regrets, and if I do go I get to greet the 3 with a friendly speech on why I am better than all of them! If somehow I stay, Iāll be giving the jury a friendly speech on why I am better than all of them, so either way some people are going to be told they arenāt as good as me so at the end of the day Iām content.
Ben-
Well here I am, the farthest I can go in this game. Although recent events may have made the game a bit confusing, Iām glad at the end of the day I made it here, and although I may never know what would have happened last tribal for sure, Lachlan told me he and Catherine were voting Bernel and Bernel said he was voting Lachlan, but like I said for all I know they could just have been trying to cover their asses.
Through tough adversary of threats in the game like Jordan and Justin, snakes like Laure and Catherine and some of the nicest people Iāve met online like Sky and Carly, Iāve made it here. I know that this jury is going to be an uphill battle, as it seems like Lachlan has a few friends on there and Iām sure Bernel does too, but hopefully I can show that I played a game worthy enough to be rewarded.
On that note, a video confessional will come with my jury speech, and will be coming shortly!
Ben-
I donāt even know if these are accepted anymore but I need to rant to someone about this so here ya go confessional box!
Carlyās question offended me to the point where I want to just message her and explain in detail that I would never waste my perfectly good time to do something I didnāt want to do, especially for an online game that gave me no kind of reward whatsoever besides the pride that I won⦠the fact that she accused me of trying to talk to people to know them personally just to make it hurt that much more when I voted them out aggravates me, especially accusing me of doing that with Sky, who Iāll admit at first I wasnāt sure what to think about her, but Sky is more or less the person in this game I met who I care about the most⦠on top of that, I got to know and talk to people like Carly or Daniel or Justin or really anyone on my own time when I was safe from elimination, not to try and fucking position myself better in the game, but because I was bored and wanted to talk to people, make friends with them because at the end of the day this is just a game, and anybody who thinks that me voting them out should end a friendship isnāt that much of a friend in the first place obviously, because it shows they truly only wanted my vote, whereas I wanted to talk to them to get to know them and take my mind off the strategic aspect of the game for a bit and have fun with the people in itā¦
Either Iām completely in the wrong and just shouldnāt have bothered talking to people at all because talking just to talk without mentioning strategy seemingly makes me an asshole, or the others are just so bitter that I ended up voting them out to try and win this game theyāre blinded by their bitterness to see that I actually wanted to be their friends⦠if I didnāt, I wouldnāt have bothered to message them, and thatās the simple truth!
Lachie- I canāt believe this is over. This has been a crazy ride and Iāve absolutely loved literally every second of it. Iām praying to the fcking gods I win.. I mean the jury said that I have this on lock but I wouldnāt be surprised if Ben came in and swooped the win, or even Bernel for that matter (but itās highly unlikely) jesus fcking CHRIST im so nervous.
Week 13 Confessionals
Ben-Ā Well Gage being gone doesnāt change my plan at all considering I have Bernel on my side anyway, obviously the plan is to win immunity and idol Bernel so I can take out Catherine and Laure.I knew Gage was going to go at one point anyway, but I mean I didnāt want to be the one to vote for him.
Lachie-
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK. FUCKING HELL. MY SHIT HAS HIT THE FAN WORSE THAN AUDREY ON BB17. Like Iām so getting out next and itās so disappointing just because I have worked SO hard to get to the position where I was. If that blindside has been clean cut, and Catherine (I was told it was Catherine) leaked the fact we were voting Gage I wouldāve been GOLDEN and Iām absolutely fucking LIVID about it.
and while my shit did hit the fan, luckily EVERYONEāS shit hit the fan. Laure was called out for lying, Ben was called out for lying, but worst of all CATHERINE was literally berated left, right and center. She literally was called out by everyone, about the alliances she has made with me and Ben, how she apparently leaks everything and oh my god it was a nightmare. Ben now hates me and apparently he doesnāt āowe me anythingā, which he never did, itās survivor. But the way heās acting all high and mighty about how he never lied to me and that we were such close allies and it was a SUCH a betrayal that I voted out Gage. Like fuck off. You voted out Daniel after I had asked you not too, and didnāt have the decency to tell me. You are NOT as innocent as you proclaim to be, get your head out of your ass and stop acting like such a fucking victim. Trying to scare people into saying if one of Bernel or himself win immunity heāll use the idol on the other, acting like youāve been such close allies, fighting against a majority and fighting the good fight! Like youāre being SO pretentious and get your head out of your ass.
Well itās been a good ride! I really believe unless I do some SERIOUS damage control, or win immunity, I will get 5th. I think Iāve played a really really solid game and am proud no matter the outcome. I mean Ben has played a tremendous game and heāll probably win it out. I donāt wanna be seen as giving up but at this point in time, I donāt see a way out of the position Iām in.
Ben- Well I guess Catherine winning immunity puts a hole in my plan once again, but if Laure goes now and I can get Catherine at 4th I guess no harm no foul. If Lachlan goes heāll be pissed even though he definitely set himself up for it, and Bernel going would be horrible because heās the only other person who would vote for Catherine next round.
Hopefully I can just win the last challenge, and if not well hopefully Lachlan or Bernel will have my back and at least force a tie so I didnāt do all of this just to end up in 4th.
Ben-Ā
1.) Who is the biggest threat to your game? Catherine 2.) Who is the biggest goat? Laure 3.) Who is your ideal final 3? Me, Lachlan and Bernel - Iām playing to win, but if the jury doesnāt find me worthy, Iād rather Lachlan or Bernel win
Catherine-
I. AM. LIVING. this is my first individual immunity win!! Biggest threat is not a person but it is Benās idol. Biggest Goat is either Bernel or Laure, only because they donāt talk much at all. ideal f3 is myslef, Lachlan and Laure
Bernel-
Hey guys, Iām sorry I havenāt sent in a confessional in a while, I got a bit tired of some people in the game (wonāt name names) after Justin got evicted, so I kind of chilled for a bit and got a little less invested. But Iām in the Final 5, I can see FTC in front of me, and Iām 100% back in the game and ready to kick ass.
So Justin went home because Ben flipped on the vote. He claims it was because he was manipulated, but Iām sure he just saw Justin as a threat. But whatever, itās over and I wouldāve done the same thing. Anyways, so after Justin went, Me/Ben/Laure/Gage banded together to get Carly off the island. Ben had an Idol, as always, and he played it on himself, negating the votes of the Carly/Daniel/Lachie/Catherine foursome, sending Carly home. Then right after that we sent Daniel home, leaving us with a clear 4-2 number advantage.
Then on this last TC, some shady shit happened. Fucking Laure flipped on us and sent Gage out the door, like what a fucking bitch. I donāt know if she really got manipulated or if sheās really just a liar, but I really am pissed off with her for that. Especially because sheās been with me and Justin since like the first Tribe Swap, that was so fucking shady of her to vote against our alliance without even talking to me about it first. But whatever, I need her vote in order to get Lachie out this week.
My ideal boot order is Lachie at 5th and maybe Ben getting 4th place. I really donāt know if I have any shot at winning, but getting Lachie and Ben out would be a pretty damn good way to boost my chances. I think Iām probably the biggest goat in this game, and Ben is the biggest threat I have right now.
Laure-
Will Justin even vote when heās on jury? Ā His been on that cruise for like 3 weeks. Ā So it might kinda be my fault Justin is gone that sucks. Ā I also keep falling for Lachyās nice guy act and voted out Gage because I thought they were coming at me. Ā Whoops. Ā
So the way I see the game nowā¦.. if I survive this round Iāll be in the final 3, because the final 4-3 will be everyone versus Ben or going after Catherine
So I just need to survive this round. Ā That means voting lachlan out because thatās my only option
ugh I feel so bad about Gage he was really nice
but if lachy survives tonight and get to the end he has my jury vote
Ben-
So Iām once again the swing vote shocking friends!!!
Laure has gotten to the point where she threatened me by saying she would vote Lachlan to win the game over me if I vote her out this round, and I donāt know if she realizes this, but I donāt respond to threats, I make them.
Ultimately it comes down to who can offer me safety in final four regardless of immunity or not, and Iām pretty sure if I donāt win with me, Lachlan, Catherine and Bernel I can get at least 2 votes on someone that isnāt me.
Lachie-
1.) Who is the biggest threat to your game?
I canāt say for sure but itās probably either Catherine or Ben. TO me, they both havenāt lied a lot (to me at least) and have played pretty decent games but both could be determined a snake a I guess, and the jury could be really bitter 2.) Who is the biggest goat?
I think everyone is in agreeance that Bernel is your typical goat. As far as I know he hasnāt spoken to about 60% of the jury and if I end up there he also hasnāt spoken to me either 3.) Who is your ideal final 3?
Well I really do want to have Bernel there, because I think I could beat him. But out of Catherine and Ben I really donāt know⦠I would have to say Ben because I really dont have the heart to vote him out and we have been together from the very start
Week 12 Confessionals
Ben-
Well Iām sure Catherine isnāt too happy I decided to take out Daniel instead of sheepishly fall back into that final four alliance after they tried blindsiding me for some excitement, and I know Lachlan wonāt be eitherā¦
At this point in the game though, I didnāt have ties to Daniel, and I donāt consider myself having ties to Bernel, Catherine or Laure either⦠Majuro makes up half of the six right now, and Lachlan and Gage are the only two left I can almost trust. Iām sure Gage has a final three deal with Laure and Bernel and I know that Catherine and Lachlan are now in need of a third member now.
Ideally, Lachlan and Gage will work together with me and just vote out the other 3 non-majuro tribe members, as Iām sure if two Majuroās make it the third will get votes for being the only one left from their tribe, or at least thatās the story I have to tell Lachlan and Gage in hopes of them voting with me⦠I guess itās gonna be all about how well personal agendas line up, and then thereās that idol tooā¦
Ben-Ā
me right now
Catherine-Ā so we messed up trying to vote out ben 2 votes ago. he said with him voting out daniel that we are even but i feel like it just makes him have more power. we are hoping to get a 4-2 with lachlan gage ben and i on one side, and luare and bernel on the other. i feel like we wont really get it. someone found the idol so lachlan and i wont be finding it. too bad. maybe carly of daniel found it before leaving that would be the best optionsĀ
Lachie-
fuck you Ben, just fucking fuck RIGHT off. How dare you fucking LIE to me like you did, when I fucked saved your ass. You wouldāve not even been in this motherfucking game if it were not for me, and you have the fucking decency to fucking lie STRAIGHT to my face about voting out Daniel. Like how fucking dare you. You fucked up my game, I no longer have the numbers and you fucking fucked EVERYTHING up. I stuck my neck out for you, because I liked you, because I thought of you as a friend and really didnāt want to see you gone. But to turn around and straight up lie to me is not ok. You then come up to me and say it and youāre not turning on me and that you just had to get Daniel out otherwise you wouldnāt of made final 3, but you still want me here blah blah blah. BULL FUCKING SHIT. I wouldnāt of cared if it were anyone else but YOU fucking lied when I have been 100% honest to you. Like it just hurts a lot and I donāt appreciate all this bullshit
I can also now guarantee that unless I win immunity (spoiler alert: i wont) Iām probs going home so yay for that :)))) love you ben soooooooooooo much!!! Ā
Lachie-
well a plan has been hatched and I think Iām not going home tomorrow so yay!!!!!!!
whilst my last confessional was all about trashing Ben, he is being my saving grace this round, and there is no way me and Catherine are being voted out today!!! which is fantastic!!! well that is if one of us win immunity. So say Catherine wins immunity, Ben will use his idol on himself and Laure/Gage/Bernel vote for me. ~assuming~ Gage/Bernel dont flip (if weāre voting Laure) then I become immunes, Catherine becomes immune, and I become immune. Then, Gage and Bernel go to rocks and one of them goes home. So yay for that!
But holy fuck Ben has another stupid fucking idol. Like he really needs to fuck off with this stupid shit, I wish I hadnāt told him about the plan to vote him out. This wouldāve been a WHOLE lot easier. Like if he makes final 3, I feel he wins 100% hands down. No doubt about it. And if he uses this idol this round. Me and Catherine need to get him out next round. He needs to GO. I think I have a chance against everyone else in the final 3, I dont have ANY against him
Ben- Well final 6 immunity means I can do really whatever I want right now, and having an idol means I even have more power now.
Obviously my plan is to take Laure out now to put myself in the swing vote position once again and if they catch on next tribal and all try to vote for me well my idol will once again save me.
Lachie-
hahahahahahhaahahahahahahah i hate this game so much. well if you were aware or not, after Catherine shared her idol clue she received from auction I have bee trying to find that idol for days on end, and i finally guess it! the covenant Peih-Gee Law! Iām so excited! until Ā the messages proceeding āyouāre correctā horrify me to say that it is no longer there. And guess who has it? that fucker Ben. this is 3rd god damn idol all game, the greedy bastard. It just annoys the living HECK out of me how he posses all of this power, and there is nothing I can do about it. Like come on man give someone else the power for a bit eh?
Anyway moving on. Well I lost immunity and how fun fun fun fun! lmao just kidding it fucking sucks. The previously mentioned plan in my last confessional about Ben wanting to split it 3-3, with me/Catherine/Ben all being immune by the immunity necklace, the idol and the vote getter being auto-immune. But that plan fell drastically down the drain. Apparently Gage/Bernel wanna do a 3-2-1 split with Me/Catherine/Ben voting Laure, Gage/Bernel voting Catherine or I and Laure voting whoever. The reason they wanna do this is because they think Laure has the idol, when in actuality itās Ben. Originally I was fine w/ doing that thinking I just wanted to stay in the game. But Catherine and I were talking ad we realized by voting out Laure, at F5 TC, we put Ben in another position of power. He chooses between Bernel/Gage and myself/Catherine. I mean who is he gonna choose? Me and Catherine who from my perspective we have both played pretty decent games, or Bernel/Gage who I think Bernel hasnāt spoken to 70% of the jury, and Gage whoās an ok competitor, but from my knowledge hasnāt done a whole lot. I mean I know who I would choose, and it wouldnāt be the people who (from my perspective) have a good chance at winning the jury.
So Catherine and I decide we HAVE to get Laure on our side and vote out of Benās numbers. Iāve approached her and she seems to be on board, but this could literally FUCK me. Like I am putting a WHOLE lot of trust within to laure to not (1, leak everything as this has to be a blindside, (2 actually vote with us. Because she could easily throw her vote on whoever Gage/Bernel are voting and send one of us home. And then I have no chance of making final 3. Aslo, Ben had a guaranteed spot in final 4 which makes me SO happy. Like and if wins that final immunity, he wins the game. Ā
Ben-Ā It seems that Catherine and Lachlan want to vote out Gage, while Gage and Bernel were keen on splitting the votes between Catherine and Lachie⦠Laure seems to want to vote Gage out as far as Iāve heard, and my plan this tribal was to get Laure out, but thatās obviously not happening unless I can pull a miracle off.
Ben-Ā Do I think Laure is going to get any other votes? No Iām pretty sure theyāre all voting for Gage. Although Iām not going to just because I need to show people I had some sense of loyalty.
Ben-Ā Ugh I love starting chaos, I said one little thing and a full-scale argument erupted between Bernel, Laure and Catherine meaning theyāll be at each others throats for the last few rounds allowing me to skate right on through.
Week 11 Confessionals
Ben- So immediately after tribal Daniel comes to me for the first time in the game, weird huh. He wants to clean the slate which he probably has no intention of doing but hey Iām no idiot either so it isnāt like I was going to say āno we cannot clean this slate you are the next one going homeā
And Iāve got no more idols up my sleeve so looks like Iām gonna have to pull off some immunity wins.
Ben-Ā Well friends, it might be time for me to kick the bucket. No more idols, 7 people left, it will take a miracle to save me today, but yolo
Lachie-
ok sorry I have been a bit UTR with my confessionals over the past few days just been busy and all. But first let me say I cannot begin to FATHOM I won 2 immunities , like OMG!!! THIS IS SO EXCITING!! but letās go back to my last confessional
Ok so Justin had just been voted out, in a very very close vote. As far as I knew though, it was gonna be 7-2, but instead it was 5-4 instead meaning two people had lied to me. Ben came to me after the vote to tell me that he knew he was the swig vote because Laure and Gage had previously said they would vote out Catherine who is basically my closest ally. Thankfully Ben sided with me but the fact he didnt tell anyone that he knew he was the swing vote, kind of basically sketched everyone out, myself included.
Come the next day and we have Auction! how exciting! I won myself a pizza which was fucking delicious and also gave me a 15% bonus on my challenge score. Also after the auction, I have Ben and Catherine both come to me about what they got. Ben got a mcfreaking idol which kinda pissed me off because the item he got (the bucket) was the item I really desperately wanted.. And then Catherine came to me saying she got an idol clue, and eve shared it with me!! I was so god damn exciting like omFG. I have bee trying to find the fucking idol but canāt for the life of me. Which is annoying the hell out of me because I know if I get that idol It will really help me get to the final 3.
Then comes immunity and HOLY FUCK I WON. I FUCKING SOMETHING THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE IS WAS SO FUCKING EXCITED AHHHHHHHHHHH. Like Winterbells has the reputation to be a game that is like the spawn of satan, but I low-key really liked it and obviously quite good at it. But after the little celebration I had, I am confronted with a plan I really didnāt want to do. Daniel came to me saying that it was essential to blindside Ben and that he needed to go. Now people donāt really know how close me and Ben are, and i think Ben going home would be detrimental to game my game at that point in time. So I know Ben has the idol, so I go to him and tell him heās getting votes and that he needs to play his idol, effectively screwing over Carly (sorry girl :(). I just couldnāt have Ben go just yet and have Carly be in the position of power between myself/Catherine/Daniel and Laure/Benrel/Gage.. I just didnāt trust her enough.
But now weāre here to today and where holy fuck I won immunity again!!! Like I donāt even know HOW this happened I just kinda sent in three random numbers =L but I am still really happy!!! I have no idea whatās gonna happen, and iām going away tonight so that doesnāt help. I know itās gonna be between Laure and Bernel, at least thatās what Catherine suggested but I legit donāt knowā¦
Ben-Ā Catherine and Daniel are playing hard ball to get me to vote someone who isnāt them right after voting me. Is it an attempt to throw my vote? Will it be 6-1 against me? Or do I once again somehow find myself as the swing vote after everything that happened last tribal? Find out next time on the next episode of Survivor: Bucket Island!
Week 10 Confessionals
Catherine-Ā OMG i have now made it the farthest yet! I think this tribal really showed the lines between people. i think ben, lachie, daniel and i are super strong at this point, hopefully carly will stay with me
Ben-Ā Yeah winterbells, not too confident with that kind⦠played it once in Jordanās fast big brother thing and had no idea what I was doing⦠at least now I sort of know what Iām supposed to do so at least thereās that.
Catherine-Ā i super happy that i didnt get out last time, ive now made if farther then mt last game! i just got an idol clue and daniel has a double vote so hopefully we can really rule this. i dont talk to bernel gage and laure. i know that is bad in survivor buuuut they tried voting me out and im not cool with that. so carly ben daniel and lachie will be voting together for awhile
Carly- Helloooooo. Okay. So. Basically I think I needed to win that immunity challenge. Catherine told me Gage was talking about how Iām on the chopping blocks. But I didnāt win. Lachie did.. So things arenāt looking the best. Luckily last vote I was in the majority vote & I think we may stick together again. Maybe. At least theyāve said they would maybe do that. Catherine & Daniel I feel quite solid with, Iāve been talking to them quite a bit. Lachie & Ben Iām not tooootally sure if theyād vote with us, but itās worth a shot. I might try to start a group chat not sure though. And I donāt know who we would go for yet!!
So Yeahhh, Little nervous. Iām gunna be trying real hard to remember an immunity idol guess every hour!! Iāve tried so many guesses but it might take quite a while.
Ben- Wow shocked that I didnāt win winterbells!!!!
I wonāt lie, Iām a bit nervous about some of the rewards other people got - for all I know someone may have gotten an extra vote at tribal which can be the difference a tie vote and an elimination, Iām kind of hoping I can lay low this tribal because I just flushed an idol, but if not well I guess I have my bucket of sand to fall back on.
Ben- Well I mean i already flushed one idol I may as well flush another right??
Or maybe Iām actually getting votes this time, it seems quiet and I donāt trust anyone in this game. Realistically, playing an idol again grants me immunity for one more round and then Iām in final 7, and will hopefully be the swing vote for that round which is when Iāll try to take control.
If I were in the others shoes Iād be trying to split the votes between Gage and I, because everyone thinks weāre a duo for whatever reason. But I guess weāll see what happens!
Carly-Ā I shared the idol clue with Catherine & Daniel, because it was taking me yearsss. 49 guesses!! So maybe this is stupid but maybe itās smart. Hoping I can trust them like I really want to and that thisāll work out!!
Ben-Ā So Iāve been told I may or may not be getting a few votes, well this will be fun! Itās time for my bucket of sand to become useful once more!
Week 9 Confessionals
Ben-Ā At this point, reward challenges are silly. First of all, it means extra effort which Iām not about, and secondly, if I win, all of that extra effort means I take someone on reward, so not only do I put a target on my back for being a duo or w/e with somebody, but I also piss everyone I donāt take off.If advantages in the immunity challenge will always be a reward, I guess it would be smarter to do rewards later down the road, but for now it doesnāt seem smart to do.
Ben-Ā Honestly, I have no idea how anybody actually feels about me in this game other than Lachie, so this challenge will be funā¦
I donāt think Iāll win, but hey I have an idol so I donāt really need immunity, but Iād love it so I can keep the idol another round.
As for the vote, I know Iām going to be a target soon and I expect them to try and split the votes between me and Gage somehow because people assume weāre a duo, even though that isnāt the case, but hey better than them targeting me and Lachie together.
Lachie-Ā
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS JORDAN IS GONE! THANK THE GOOD GRACES OF GOD! Like the way he reacted was so god damn childish and really fucking pissed me off. Like yeah I get it was to keep Carly safe but like it was like what are you? 8 years old?????? like come on
also something he mentioned about the fact that we are all Justinās sheep and that weāre all being herded by him was kinda funny and confusing. because it was myself/Ben/Catherine all really pushing for Jordan to go home, but he pinned it all on Justin and how he was running the game. which makes me question what power does Justin really hold? like I kinda got the gist he is running the supposed final 4 of himself/Ben/Gage/Bernel and he has real control over Bernel and Gage(I think) but who else is there to supposedly āherdā. me/Catherine/Daniel are all really tight, me/Ben are really tight and Laure can be considered a free agent so Iām not really sure where that came from..
now for the upcoming tribal. Iām very very nervous (what a surprise! me paranoid/nervous? who wouldāve thought!) but itās not because I generally think Iām going home, but I really donāt want Carly to. like the obvious vote this round would be for the 8 of us to stick together and all vote Carly, but there is something itching me that finally needs to be scratched. Gage is obviously a lot closer to Justin and Bernel Ā than he is to the sexy 6. like last time, before I went to bed, he was SO reluctant to vote out Jordan. but I wake up the next morning and he is magically on board with voting him out with what I assume is because Justin and Bernel agreed to do so. and I canāt trust Gage with the both of them around, heāll choose them WAAY before heāll choose me and one of them needs to go. I tried to hint at Laure that I was thinking of doing something other than Carly and she was kinda reluctant, stating that she canāt trust Carly because they havent spoken since the tribe swap and Carly would be her personal preference. which really really sucks because she would be a needed vote. Ben and Catherine both agreed to do so, which is great. Ben only agreed to vote him out that we would vote out Laure afterwards, which Iām very iffy about. Ben wants to vote out Laure because she is a free agent, but if we were to start voting out the āfree agentsā I would much rather vote out Carly, because to me she is a much bigger wildcard. but idk thatās all in the future.
Lachie-Ā also something I forgot to mention before but Carly took Catherine on reward???? like wtf?? I had NO idea that they even spoke and it kinda came as a huge shock when I read it. like itās ok because Catherine and I are close and if she can pull in Carly thatās all fine and dandy, but it was just very very strange
Ben-Ā http://prntscr.com/7m7c3c
Idk why Iām a horrible person
uh glad I have this idol though so Iām safe this round =]
Bernel-Ā
So good to be talking to you again VL, Iām getting excited because this game is getting down to the wire here. So the Jordan vote went off fine, he just took himself out with his own behavior. Honestly if I knew he was gonna quit Iād have rather voted out Carly and then both of them would be gone but who cares tbh.
So Jordan said I have no shot in hell of winning, and then in todayās Immunity Challenge I got the titles of āPerson Who Most People Forget Is In The Gameā, āPerson Playing For 2ndā, and āPerson Who Needs A Wake-Up Callā. I knew that with my particular strategy, kind of trying to lay low while Justin made some bigger moves, would be risky but Iām a tiny bit worried that if I make F3, with or without Justin, people wonāt respect my game. But I have a very specific plan, and it goes like this;
Final 9 (current round)- Catherine goes home, me/Laure/Justin/Ben/Gage vote for her
Final 8- Carly goes, the aforementioned fivesome sticking together
Final 7- Lachie goes, the 5 of us voting together again
Final 6- Ben is blindsided with an Idol. Me/Laure/Justin vote
Final 5- Daniel goes.
Final 4- Justin goes, me/Laure vote him out and if need be, maybe we go to fire-starting challenge?
Idk this is all strictly speculative at the moment but I know I want to take Laure to the end and I know I donāt want Ben/Justin anywhere near the Finals. So I really just have to toe the line between keeping myself in the majority and voting out big threats who may be in the majority alliance with myself.
Ben-Ā At this point, everyone is telling me the vote is between Catherine and Justin, and there have been mentions of Laure wanting to flush my idol.I donāt know, nor care if I am getting votes, a public idol just puts a target on my back, and I need that target gone so Iām just going to play it to make sure Iām safe, and if I go the next round oh well at least I tried!
Laure-
Ugh a lot has happened and I have so little time to right about it
Jordan and Carly came at me, and surprisingly the whole tribe worked together to coordinate splitting the votes and getting rid of them. Ā They seemed pretty upset. Ā Tbh Jordan letās pretend for a moment you werenāt going to Isreal, did you honestly believe this would have turned out differently? Ā These same people just did the exact same thing to you and Xavier, and you think they would have voted out little miss me? Ā Wasnāt going to happen.
I wished we would have voted out Carly instead, but by the time I could expose Jordan for wanting to quit anyways everyone had already voted, and surprise surprise the thing I knew that was going to happen happened. Ā Carly won immunity, so there goes the easy vote I wanted.
Catherine is up to some shengingans, she claims she doesnāt know why Carly took her, but Catherine flat out asked me to join the alliance with her, Lachlan, and Carly. Ā (rip Daniel I guess) Of course, I said Iām not comfortable working with Carly. Ā I want her gone, because this Iām sure this is whatās going to happen. Ā She can play the āI was only loyal to Jordan but now his gone so Iām not a threat cardā which leads into her staying longer, which leads into more immunities, which leads into more votes I can control being voted out. Ā She also is really pissed, people who are really pissed become vengeful and will stop at nothing to get what they want.
I got pretty beat up in Touchy Subjects, Iām annoying, I donāt deserve to be here, yadaayadayda I guess I canāt be too mad cause that was too many questions for a cast that isnāt relevant. Ā Hell I was planning the season 27 all-star cast today and tbh the only newbies that deserve to come back from this heap is Carly and Gage, and maybe Bernel when I see the cards his been playing.
When will these kiddies do their homework tbh? Ā This is my third time playingā¦. I fucking know what Iām doing by this point, and so far until today all my plans (except leaking that I wanted Carly out) have worked. Ā During the second tribe swap I solidified a relationship with Lachlan. Ā Iāve been in two alliances for a while now. Ā My final 3 with Bernel and Justin, and Lachyās alliance of Catherine and Daniel (and Carly now I guess). Ā I wanted to live these two lives a bit longer, because being around the two camps allowed me to figure out everyoneās intentions, but Justin is the target now. Ā My final 2. Ā The guy who has been a very close friend to me for more than a year now. Ā We have a contract. Ā We canāt write each otherās name down and have to help each otherā¦. or we donāt vote for each other in the end, and burn down each other Minecraft houses, but there is only so much I can do for him.
Maybe spread the rumor that I think he has an idolā¦. to get them to split the votes so Bernel and I can fuck it up, or it seems the target is moving on to Catherine, which means betraying Lachy. Ā I donāt know what to do.
Help me Godzilla!
Justin-
There is a very good chance that this could be my last confessional. I hate to start it out that way, but oh well. I know Laure will vote with me, itās just about if Ben/Bernel/Gage will stay true to what we have. Voting me out wouldnāt be the best option for them at this point in my opinion because of numbers (although in two votes would be the perfect time to turn on me haha). If they vote me off, Laure will join up with Catherine/Daniel/Lachie and Carly will be against them as well. In my opinion, it wouldnāt be a good game move on their part (plus I donāt want to get voted out :P).
The plan tonight is Catherine, although I am going to tell Carly that we are voting Laure. I donāt want people thinking Laure and I have something serious going on, plus it kinda takes the target off my back. I guess weāll see what happens tonight, but if this is really my last confessional then I just want to sayā¦
At least I made it farther than Jordan and Xavier ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Carly-
I am super pumped to have immunity idol. Nice to be able to breathe for a vote.
I hated that challenge so much though. Just doesnāt make anyone feel nice! And like, apparently I least deserve to be here? (Tied with Laure). Noooo. Stupid. Real stupid. I just tried to let it bounce off me like BBās off a Buick. Whatevs.
Looks like Justin is who weāre voting for this vote, which is bitter sweet, even though he lied to me last vote, I like the kid! But oh well, good to get a threat gone I suppose!
Laure- http://prntscr.com/7miaxq
someone is getting lied to and is going to be mad tonight
Ben- Well I donāt care about my idol anymore so Iām playing it just to make sure nobody is blindsiding me, but at the same time from what Iāve told I seem to be stuck in the middle of a 4-4 vote! Iām really hoping I donāt have to be the one to pick a side because that just fucks me over even more with one crowd and it wonāt let me fly under the radarā¦
Catherine-Ā This vote is the first one that is worrying me so far. i got all the nice things for touchy subjects so maybe i will end up going out for being too nice. Uuuugh either way i have made it just as far as my last season so i wont disgrace my famiry. imma hoping lachie and i can make it to the end together.Ā
Week 8 Confessionals
Bernel -Ā
So my plan worked out, the vote split 3-3. Me, Justin, and Jordan voted Xavier out, while Ben, Gage, and Xavier voted out Jordan. During the re-vote period, both of Xavier and Jordan were trying to campaign to keep themselves safe. Ben, in my alliance of 4 who were the ones voting again, was trying very hard to save Xavier, but at the end of the day I was the one who wanted Xavier gone so I got Justin to back me up, and eventually Ben finally broke and just agreed to vote out Xavier.
At Tribal Council, the vote went perfect; Xavier went home 4-0. He blew up a little bit and said he hated us all, but at the end of the day who cares? Itās just a game, if heās really going to be bitter then it just kinda sucks for him. He was a super cool dude and if he wasnāt such a threat Iād have kept him around. But for now Iām just moving ahead and thinking deep into the game.
Assuming we Merge at like Final 10, I think itād probably be best if me and Justin stuck with our alliance of us 2/Jordan/Carly Laure, and we can knock out some of the New Tabal people. We can take out some of Ben and Gageās original tribe mates to keep them loyal to me, and then once thatās accomplished we can use Ben and Gage to knock out people like Carly and Jordan. I think this plan might go quite well, weāll just have to see how it all works out.
Sky -Ā xavier basically passive aggressively threatening to tell everyone i have the hidden immunity idol⦠like bitch youāre out of the game stop being bitter and stfu. i didnāt even do anything to him besides stay loyal. he needs to calm his ass down.
Carly -Ā Well I did it! Somehow! Made the merge. Idk for some reason I didnāt think that I would make it haha. Kinda scary though at the moment Iām not really feeling like Iām too closely knit to anyone besides Jordan. But even heās talking to me less than he used to, I think thatās cause heās getting closer with Justin. But Iām not really sure. So yeah, itāll be interesting when it comes down to tribal, weāll start to see some divides which could possibly be a good thing. Personally Iād like to know where I stand with people.Ā
Ben -Ā Well now that weāve actually hit the merge, there is no way a vote can tie, so itās a simple numbers game nowā¦
Jordan, Carly and Laure will all stick together and I doubt any will trust me from this point on because of the vote splitting, whereas if Gage and I join up with Daniel. Lachie, Sky and Catherine we have a majority for sure, so that option seems like the best thing to do for now.
This reward challenge, besides being a lot of effort, will probably only make the winner and whoever goes on the reward with them a target because it will show theyāre either close or the winner may want to persuade them into working together, which is why Iām steering clear of it.
Lachie -Ā
omg we merged <3 I am literally so excited you donāt even understand. Like coming into this game my mentality just make it to the merge, just make it to the merge. Because last time, I felt I was so close yet so far.. and having the opportunity to play I didnāt wanna fuck it up and made small goals for me to beat. My last placement was one of them, but to now make it to the merge Ā really puts things into perspective that I can actually make it far and that Iām a real contender to win this game.. idk itās just so surreal to me
Also Xavier being voted out kinda really pisses me off. Like it wasnt even Gageās and Bens fault, because Bernal and Justin pulled some shady ass shit and changed to vote to Xavier like literally last minute⦠so now Jordan is still in this game and is currently the biggest target to go. No one outside the 4 of them (Jordan, Carly, Justin, Bernal) trusts Jordan and Laure told me she is like pretty confident he has the idol, and that he was probably being cocky when it came to the vote against Xavier. But the fact he does have the idol pisses me off even more because he probs knows heās getting votes and might use it.. which literally petrifies me because if i get idoled out again i will literally shoot myself in the face. Carly is his number one from the looks of things, so we canāt vote her either. Now i just remembered all of old Rakuru got a clue to the idol prior to the double tribal council so it could be any of them who got it which makes me even more paranoid⦠DAMN this game is so fucking stressful..
But from what I know, my side has a complete majority of like 7-4.. itās Me/Sky/Catherine/Daniel/Ben/Gage/Laure vs Jordan/Carly/Bernal/Justin which I donāt think anyone is willing to flip (I think) idk I could be over thinking this but Laure could be lying to Ā me and this is all a ruse and Iām getting voted IDK Iām just so mcfreaking paranoid and itās really really BAD LOL. Also Iām in a clusterfuck of alliances.. Iāve got
Majuro 4: Myself/Sky/Ben/Gage Ā Final 3 A : Myself/Sky/Ben Ā Final 3 B: Myself/Sky/Catherine Ā Tabal 4: Myself/Sky/Daniel/Catherine Ā Final 2: Myself/Sky Final 2 B(? not really confirmed): Myself/Ben and I also have something going on with Laure. So yeah iād like to think me and Sky are ~running~ but the paranoia tells me thatās not really the case and this could all go very badly very quickly.
Xavier (Final Words)-
I have never been more upset about a game. I am so mad at Sky Catherine and Daniel. Not only did I make a majority alliance with them, I somewhat saved all of them! All of the four! And then they just cast me aside like they didnāt need me. We planned for this situation exactly yet they didnāt throw the challenge and get out Laure. They just casted me aside like I wasnāt worth saving. I am so through with games like these. I have never made single digits and I am obviously no supposed to. What pisses me off the most is that if we had merged at 12 I probably would have been in the top 5 of this game. I just have so much anger for Catherine sky and Daniel for basically saying āfuck you Xavier we donāt need youā When all of them I saved at one point of another. I basically have sky an idol, made the vote Caroline to save Daniel, and included Catherine in the majority alliance. I am so mad and sad. I flopped for the eighth fucking time.
Ben-Ā From a game point, Iām in a powerful position because Iām the swing vote and I have an idol, however now my target went from under the radar to probably one of the bigger ones⦠on top of all of that, my closest ally, the only person I could tell everything to quit and I really hope sheās okay.In short, things suck.
Jordan-Ā Okay before I go on a rant that shows how terrible of a person I am, I am going to say that I hope the best for Sky, and that she can have a good recovery and that she feels better. Anyways thank fucking god that she is gone, One more out of the way for me to be a star. Get out honey because it is King Jordanās time to shine. You enjoy jury Sky, Iāll enjoy winning
Carly-Ā Sky left the game today, which sucks because I know she wants to play just personal life gets in the way sometimes. Shocked me a little bit that she had an idol and that she gave it to Ben. Idk for some reason I thought we were kinda getting close and I had no idea her and Ben even talked. But oh well! At least we know who has it now. Itāll be interesting to see who wins individual immunity from the challenge!
Ben-Ā Well hey I won immunity and stuff go me, and I have that idol too so thatās two rounds Iāve bought myself time for.Not even 2 minutes later and people already want my vote so great, I havenāt had time to process anything and Iām already getting asked for who I want to vote for which is annoying as fuck, like give me some breathing room will ya.I have a lot of power I guess which just fucked over my strategy of merging under the radar and laying low for a bit so I have to rethink and vote out people who might pose a threat to my end game early.
Bernel-Ā
Ugh.. this is the first Tribal where Iām actually nervous. Not for my safety, I feel decently safe, but I really am sticking my neck out on the line for someone for the first time and itās scary. Jordan wants Laure out so bad, and heās pushing for her really hard. Heās gotten to Gage and Ben and I think they want Laure out too, but Iām really gonna push and dig in my heels for this one. I feel like Laure is loyal to me and Justin, and voting her out is stupid for my personal game. I think there are three ways this vote can go;
1) The group votes out Laure, and Jordan/Carly \say/ theyāre with us but I think thatād be bad for me end-game. 2) We vote out someone from the other tribe, Jordan gets mad and flips to the other side and takes Carly with him, but since we saved Laure she sticks with us and we still have the numbers 5-4. 3) We vote Carly out, Jordan pretty much confirmed that he and Carly were a duo when we first became New Rakuru, and if we take out Carly we leave Jordan on his own and even if he wants to flip thereās not much he can do numerically since we could reel in Laure.
I really do think Laure is likely going to be going home but Iām going to be the demanding brat that I am, and Iām going to dig in my heels, and Iām going to refuse that Laure is voted out. I donāt like the thought of her being eliminated and Iām gonna fight for her to stay.
Lachie-Ā It was really really saddening to see Sky quit.. an. I know from personal experience the toll anxiety can take on a person and it does take a toll on my game because she was my final 2, I completely understand why she did quit. I hope she takes the time she needs to get better and does whatever she needs to do to make herself feel better, I love you skye < 3
Lachie-Ā
why is this so FREAKING stressful oh my LORD. Ok as Iāve stated before there is a divide between Myself/Catherine/Daniel and Jordan/Carly/Bernal/Justin and now that Sky has quit, weāre down a number. That leaves Ben and Gage smack bang in the middle. Whilst I trust Ben from about a 90 to 95%, I really dont trust Gage as far as I could throw him..
For one, after him winning the reward and taking Justin, I mean I donāt think you couldāve painted a clearer picture if you tried. Like you TOLD me you had Ā a four person alliance with him/Ben/Bernal, and if you take 2 of those members out on reward it obviously shows where your loyalties lie. Like it may seem that Iām #bitter about not going the reward, but in all honestly I didnāt care, it just spoke a lot to me he took Justin over someone like Myself or Catherine, who is apart of the the sexy 6. Also the fact he deducted points from me in the immunity points slighty annoyed me. He did it because I had said stuff about sucking really badly in the challenge, which I was and wasnāt gonna win anyway, but it proved to me that he not 100% loyal to me and that is wanting a possible alliance outside the sexy 6. I mean thatās fine itās all apart of the game, but it just proves how hard is actually playing the game and how threatening he may be.
So for this vote, as far as I know Jordanās alliance is voting Laure, which makes no sense to me, because she literally is a free agent and has no ties to anyone, and then then my side is tossing up between Carly and Jordan. I DESPERATELY want to vote Jordan because heās literally shady af, but Ben told me that Gage is deciding between Carly and Laure (which fucking drives me up the wall) and that he is also leaning towards voting Laure which infuriates me to my core. Like itās SO painfully obvious that he wants a final 4 of himself/Ben/Bernal/Justin he may as well just fucking tell everyone. But Iām hoping and praying Ben can convince him to do whats right (for me) and vote out Jordan. But UGH this is so stressful pls send help
Ben-Ā Honestly, itās strategically smarter to leave Jordan in the game and vote out Carly because that way next tribal council if I donāt have immunity theyāll be at each others throatsā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ At the same time, you can use that logic and say itās smart to leave Jordan and Carly in the game because theyāll be targeted for being an obvious duo.
I honestly just want to make sure whoever goes will leave a target in next round to go that isnāt me⦠and if Iām in trouble, I still do have that not so hidden immunity idol, although I prefer to keep that for as long as I can.
Bernel-Ā So this is gonna be a bindside, either for me or for Jordan. Ben has been working it so the vote splits 4-4 between Jordan and Carly. I was working hard to get Laure to stay, but at the end of the day it looks like Ben pulled through and did a lot of the work on his own. The plan for now is Ben/Daniel/Lachie/Catherine vote Carly, me/Laure/Jordan/Gage vote Jordan. If an Idol is played, at least someone who isnāt Laure is going to Jury. If the vote ties, Iām gonna push and make sure Jordan goes home, despite what other people might want.
Justin- Tonight we go to war! Apparently we are splitting the vote tonight between Carly and Jordan (which I think is stupid but oh well, who cares about logic). I would want Jordan gone because, while I think he is a nice guy and I could actually trust him, I donāt trust him enough to see if he will take me all the way to the end. Right now, I have Bernel/Ben/Gage as well as Laure - who has Lachie with her. Which means, if all goes well, the final 3 could include me in there alongside Bernel and Laure. Weāll see what happens, but hopefully Jordan or Carly goes home tonight. This game is gonna get interesting.
Jordan-Ā Ding Dong the witch will die, which old witch? Laure that witch. If everyone is not lying to me then today I will be the happiest I have ever been since the beginning of the season. Tonight Laure should be going home and that useless shady thing will be out of my game. Itās almost funny that Laure was the one who said I acted like a King. Well congrats Laure, you crowned me and now Iām executing you.
Carly-
Well I am THOROUGHLY shocked. Was an absolutely crazy night. I mean it when I say I really had no idea they would do this. Yes Iām mad. Mad at Justin because he was all about loyalty and then he completely turned on Jordan and I out of the blue. Iām mad at Laure because she came up with the idea that Jordan and I were glued together AND that he āhad an idolā to get everyone to turn on us. Itās been said Gage and Ben are a pair. Justin and Bernel. Why target Jordan and I? First off it was all Jordan saying to vote out Laure, I tried to get him to stick with our alliance but he didnāt want to and other people said they were following Jordan, so I just did to. And because that was all I was told, I obviously voted that way, making me look like an ass to Laure. I didnāt know who else to vote so I threw out Catherine or Daniel, because who else was there not in our so called alliance. But no one was going for it so I just voted Laure like people that WERENāT Jordan said to do.
Basically, people made me look like a stupid follower that was picking on people, when I 110% wasnāt. Someone was just trying to save their own ass, and it worked.
Weāre currently waiting on the re-vote for Jordan & I. Everyoneās telling me itās Jordan going.
But who friggen knows what to believe with these people.
Week 7 Confessionals
Xavier -Ā So, we are on the same beach. I donāt think we have merged. Nevertheless, Sky created a majority alliance in Tabal + Marujo. Sky is iconic. Literally everyone trusts her yet nobody sees her as a threat. She is killing this game, it is insane. I love playing with her I am so happy she is aligned with me and I hope that this alliance is the final 7
Justin -Ā
I havenāt made a confessional in forever - Iām becoming #irrelevant. Right now I have the following alliances:
-Bernel and I
-Laure and I
Bernel/Laure and I
-Ben/Gage/Bernel and I
-Bernel/Carly/Jordan/Laure and I
-Jordan/Sky/Xavier and I
Iām an alliance whore basically. Luckily our tribe has been killing these challenges - now we have to worry about this āāāāāāāmergeāāāāāāā. I donāt think I have anything to worry about right now because I donāt think I am being perceived as a big threat. The only thing I have to worry about is who has the idol, and if any of my alliances arenāt actually true. The Chiefs Alliance is a total sham - Iād be surprised if any of us actually believe we are going to work together haha. I know Iām not. My true alliance is with Laure and Bernel. And now that there are 12 people left, hopefully I can pull in a few more for a secure 6 or 7 alliance.
Letās see how things go - this game is about to get messy.
Laure -Ā
Rip Justin, his aligned with a friggen idiot, and by idiot I mean me
okay so apparently Iām on a tribe of sheep and goats that all want to put their heads down just so they can get to juryā¦. no one seems to have that strive to get to the end, and itās so frustrating. Ā
They all wanted to vote off Laura last tribal, which makes no sense to me, because sheās a vote for those who arenāt involved in Jordanās bullshit, and she pulled her weight in all the challenges. Ā Carly, on the other hand, is so far up Jordanās ass I canāt even see her anymore. Ā She was probably playing me the whole time on my original tribe because youād almost think he worships the ground he walks upon the way she backed him up in that alliance chat constantly. Ā Itās 100% obvious by this point that Jordan has a Chiefās alliance and his keeping Carly as his goat for the endā¦. does he really think that will be so easy? Ā Because one of his chiefās (Justin) is my bff and tells me everything.
Anyway Iām in a chat with Justin and Bernal and I told them Carly might be a better choice. Ā Sadly the chat I wrote that in was the chat with Carly and Jordan. Ā Yeahā¦. I did itā¦. AGAIN. Ā For the future if you want to work with me, name your chat, and give it a picture. Ā I will get confused if you donāt. Ā Jesus Christ.
Anyway Jordan wants me gone next, but these idiots all voted early so they had to vote out Laura⦠and I did to, because there wasnāt enough time to go after Carly. Ā Only voted to vote out Carly cause Jordan got immunity, but hopefully this fake merge bullshit is just what I expect it to be, because as long as Bernel still trusts me we can take Jordan out. Ā Justin thinks he has an idolā¦. idk I just donāt see him being the type to have it. Ā Hereās to hoping Iāll be at tribal writing this assholeās name down next round.
Rip Laura, you didnāt deserve to go before a guy who thinks his a good player. Ā He needs to go to the org with Xavier where trashy bad players belong. Ā Speaking of which I messaged Xavier, never bothered to reply to me. Ā Apparently Iām beneath him. Ā I hate that attitude. Ā I hate org trash, but I seem surrounded by it. Ā
Ben - Probably the most annoying thing about this game is having to dumb myself down when I talk to people. Not because Iām just so much smarter than everyone else, but because I donāt want to come off as someone who in every single conversation has to show off their strategic mind set like Jordan.
Besides, playing in that I have no idea whatās going on half the time works better for me. It means people will come to me for my vote, just as both tribes have already tried to do, it works well because this is my first tumblr game so I have that as a good excuse, and if Iām able to take control, from behind the scenes, even better because nobody will suspect anything⦠letās just hope I can make it that far without anyone getting suspicious though.
Xavier -Ā for the next couple of votes unitl the merge ( if I make it) I will be an emotional roller coaster. My alliance was split up 4/3, however I am on the tribe 3-3 and I am the only new tabal on this tribe. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN???!?!??! AND SKY IS THE ONE WITH THE IDOL AND NOT ME ?!?!?!??!?!? SHIIITIITITITITTTT. It is time for me to work my magic and flirt my way away from elimition.
Lachie -
holy CHRIST these past few days have been hectic. Thankfully, after an ordeal in real life involving my grandma, I was able to make it past that TC unscathed, and we had to vote out Danielle, which I was so upset in doing so.. She has always been so lovely to me and it just how the cards feel. Also I mean for one she is a returning player and I think wouldāve eventually helped me in the long run, and plus I didnāt even talk to Caroline⦠yeah she was in the core 5 but we never spoke one and one and I really dont think I could trust her.. thankfully she went next. I was able to talk to all three of Catherine/Xavier and Sky and say Caroline needed to go because we weāre all scared for a merge. She was an old Airik and couldāve very well flipped on us come merge, plus I am way closer to Daniel. I also wanted to keep Daniel in case nothing happened the next round, because if we kept losing like we did and voted out Daniel, it wouldāve gone to a 2-2 tie. I know I couldāve swayed Daniel to vote w/ me and Skyā¦
Now come to yesterday, and weāre all added to a chat and an announcement is to be made in 24 hours, and everyone legit freaked out. I mean I think the general consensus is that it wouldnāt be a merge but just in case the old Majuro 4 and Tabal 3 connected forces to make the #power7 which is golden for myself and Sky, because had that power 7 ran through, myself and Sky wouldāve been stuck right in the middle deciding whether weād go with Ben/Gage or Xavier/Catherine and Daniel. And while I am very comfortable with the group, it kinda just seems way to easy.. Like Iām not trying say āTHIS IS MY GAME TO WIN!!! THEYāRE ALL IDIOTS!!! IāM THE BIGGEST THREAT !!1!!11!ā Ā but from my perspective if that 7 does stick together (which at this point in time I do see happening) I donāt see a position where I donāt see myself getting to the final 3. I mean there are only two potential hiccups I see along the road. Whilst I do trust them, more so Ben than Gage, Gage told me whilst we were on the one beach that they made an alliance with Justin and Bernal. Whilst thatās all find and dandy to get themselves to the merge, I wouldnāt have any doubt in my mind they would jump ship if they felt the need. Also, Ben, who was in an original final 3 with myself and Sky, never told me about it. Apparently he did Sky, which is fine, but itās not me. Also that brings me onto my next point. Sky. I love the girl to bits, and at this point in time, I do intend on going to the end with her. But the matter of the fact is she is so fucking likable. I mean she was the one who had connections through Cheifās Island to get us involved with Catherine and Xavier. Whilst I do have a close relationship now Ā with Catherine, she still is very very sociable weith everyone around her. I mean she would SLAUGHTER me in a jury voteā¦
Lachie -Ā
hahahahahahahaahaahaha
remember last time when I said basically said everything was rolling smoothly and I arrogantly stated there was no way I wouldnāt get to the final 3? hahahaha BOY WAS I WRONG! Laure has literally spilled some hot scorching tea all over my game by the things she has said to me tonight. She has stated her apparent disdain towards her former tribe mates Carly and Jordan. Jordan apparently does have the idol, whilst it isnāt confirmed according to Laure he makes it very obvious. I can see what she is saying there, because from the very small conversation we had whilst we were banded together on a beach, he seemed very straight to the point and wanted to talk game right away, which frightens me. Also, I no longer trust Xavier! I said at the very start of NuTabal there was something off about him, and that he seemed shady. But, he won me over when we always voted together and didnāt pull any moves I predicted him to do so. But, Laure told me that Jordan told her all these different things about Tabal, and the only way that couldāve been through Xavier telling Jordan. Like something she told me was that Daniel was the next to go after Caroline because of some sort of alliance with Max. Whilst is was semi-true Daniel was skewed as the next person to go (I wouldnāt of let it happen) either Xavier lied to Jordan about the Max thing, or Iām completely obliviousā¦
ALSO, Jordan has an alliance with everyone who was ever a chief! you know who was a chief? Skyler! This is the first time Iāve ever questioned Skylerās loyalty to me⦠like it may not be a big thing but the fact I wasnāt told about it makes me very scared, and make me wonder whether I should be branching off⦠I donāt want this to be a repeat of Matsu where I clung onto Grace like a cheap suit. I want to make my own mark. Itās just this info has clouded my perception of the game, and I donāt even know if itās all true! I just really donāt know what to doā¦
Xavier -Ā Gage is either a bae or a great liar. He says that he will tie the vote under any circumstance. I am so nervous. He and bernal are the only one who talks to me. I really hope they can save me. I am freaking the fuck out!!!!
Bernel -
Can I just say.. YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! This Tribe Swap is literally the BEST thing that could have ever happened to me in this game. Putting me with ALL of my allies and then Xavier is so great. So Jordan allegedly wants to take the New Rakuru people to the Final 7, which includes me/Justin/Jordan/Carly/Laure/Gage/Ben and that works fine with me. Thatās gonna be even easier to make happen since myself/Jordan/Justin/Gage/Ben are all on the same tribe, like this is gonna be a cakewalk. Hopefully our tribe can win the next 2(?) challenges until Merge, and the New New Tabal can get rid of people like Lachlan, Daniel, and Catherine, people that I havenāt spoken to at all. If I merge into a tribe with numbers on my side and unofficial allies like Sky, then I think Iām golden.
Even if we do lose today, I think itās fairly obvious that Xavier will be going home unless he has an Idol. Justin informed me that the Idol is already gone. He may have gotten it himself and is just lying, but who knows? Iāve been working Xavier all night, since I heard that he was running shit on his last tribe. If we Merge and heās still in the game, I definitely want him on my side as a potential ally. But if we lose, heās definitely number one on the chopping block and I will be coming for his head personally. Heās a very cool dude but he kind of scares me and taking him out would be a really great thing for me. In the event of a loss today, I have a plan that will ensure that Xavier is eliminated even if he plays his Idol, and I think itāll work perfectly. It pretty much consists of me telling Xavier to vote Jordan out, Jordan/Gage/Ben/Justin voting out Xavier, and me voting out Justin. If all goes according to plan, if Xavier doesnāt play his Idol/doesnāt have an Idol he goes home 4-1-1, and if he does have an Idol and plays it, the vote is tied with one vote Jordan and one vote Justin, then I send Jordan out the door. Itās not the best plan but I do think Jordan is a very intellectual gameplayer, and if I canāt send my #1 threat home, then I guess I can take out another potential threat. Weāll just have to see how tonightās Immunity challenge goes.
Carly -Ā So Iāve been feeling a little like this challenge is a lost cause, since the other tribe has people like Justin and Jordan and Xavier who quite often get quite high scores. So I wasnāt planning on trying too hard on it because I donāt really want the top mark, because then you get targeted as someone strong in challenges, and now is kinda the time to start taking out those people. But I actually have a decently high score as of right now, but if I see we arenāt doing well anyway Iāll probably quickly re-do the challenge before itās due with a lower score so Iām a little more out of the woods.Ā
Xavier -Ā I am so scared for tribal council, I think I will go home. Bernel and I have talked but unfortunately it is so short I have no idea what is happening in his head. Time for me to work my magic af. Hopefully gage can save me </3
Bernel -Ā
So we lost, which means that my plan, or as Justin calls it Plan B(ernel) is going into effect⦠or at least a variation of it is. What I planned out was this; Jordan/Justin/Ben/Gage vote for like Xavier or something (the planned target), while Xavier votes for someone like.. literally whoever. But if Xavier were to have and Idol and play it, then whomever he voted for would go home. So Iād vote for someone else and then my alliance sends home whomever I voted for on the re-vote.
So that was the plan I had, and it was ready to go. But then I started thinking āWhat if Jordan has the Idolā? So my alliance decided to split the vote; myself and Justin vote out Xavier (in order to protect the alliance that we have with Jordan/Carly/Laure), while Ben/Gage vote out Jordan. If Jordan has the Idol and plays it, Xavier goes home, which is best case scenario. If Xavier has the Idol and plays it, Jordan goes home, which is not a good scenario but something I can maybe work with. If neither have an Idol/they do but donāt play it, than on the re-vote my alliance of me/Justin/Ben/Gage will send home one of them. We flipped a coin and the coin said vote Jordan out, but thatās not happening lol. Iām gonna make sure Xavier goes home because he just gives me really shady vibes. Very very shady vibes.
This plan is shaky, as all plans to split the votes are, and I just have to hope for the best and put in work to ensure that I stay this week.
Ben -Ā Well it seems that the vote is between Jordan for having ties with Carly and Laure and having a possible idol, as well as being good at challenges, or Xavier, who has connections to the other tribe who may not be as good in challenges.Iām hoping that I can just relax for this vote, but you never know.
Xavier -Ā So, it looks like the end of xavier. Gage tried all he did to save me but it looks bleek. Everyone is lying to me horribly, Justin must think he is amazing. I hate him. Justin needs to die. He is a fake ass fuck that needs to realize that if I survive this TC he is going the fuck home. Sky screwed me over and I better fucking make jury at 12th. I AM ON A TRIBE OF A BUNCH OF BITCHES (sans gage)
Xavier -Ā So justin is like āwhat ever keeps you in!ā And I am like really? REEEALLLYYY? Then made him tell me he was voting for Jordan. Fucking sent that shit right to Jordan. I hope this works out. Justin is so fake. I hate him. He needs to go. If I had an idol he would be gone. OH WAIT I DO JUST SKY FREAKING HAS IT AND STILL DIDNāT THROW THE CHALLENGE!!!!
Jordan -Ā So today i will be receiving my first vote against me of the season. Xavier, oh Xavier. you made so many wrong choices. Today you will be gone and I will still be here. Itās such a shame, for you. Not me iām doing great. But see ya, wouldnt want to be ya.
Justin -Ā Tonight is going to be crazy. Good chance I could be going home or at least getting some votes because Xavier sent the chat logs of me saying Iāll vote out Jordan to Jordan - and now I had to back track. Iām actually pretty nervous it could be me tonight, but I hope not. Iām pretty sure that Xavier/Jordan have the idol, so by splitting the votes tonight we could eliminate an idol and a player. I would love for Xavier to go home tonight, but if not, then I guess Jordan would have to do ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Jordan -Ā OMG SO FUCKING SCARY, Iām on a tribe of liars, ya Jordan, youāre safe tonight, rakuru strong. Rakuru strong my ass. They are all like ya were so glad you stayed. bitch in two of your confessionals you made it really clear that you wanted me out, like now. King Jordan will get his revenge. They are all dead to me. At this point i am only still loyal to carly. The rest of them can go screw themselves.
Week 6 Confessionals
Bernel - So I havenāt been able to post in a while, but Iām back now so hereās whatās going on from my point in the game.
So the Rakaru Four had to tragically be split apart and we voted out Brit. It was heartbreaking to do but itās part of the game. So right after we voted her out, we were greeted with a Tribe Swap! So I spoke to some members of my new tribe instantly, and I took my time with others. One thing that had me weary was how the New Rakaruās have 3 former Airikās and that means thereās likely an alliance already on my tribe.
So I just played it cool for a couple days, but tonight I really had to kick it into overdrive. Danielle, one of my allies from the original Rakaru tribe, got voted off over on her new tribe. So I spoke to Justin and we decided to form an alliance with Gage and Ben, and I also orchestrated an alliance with myself, Justin, and Laure. So now Iām in two solid alliances, I really think that I can use these alliances to put myself in a great postion once we Merge, and from there itās just laying super low until I can take a hit at a big player.
Sky -Ā me hearing everyones scores while iām trying to do this puzzle for immunity:
Caroline -Ā Iām absolutely terrified. Iām an outsider in my tribe and after todayās loss, I feel like there is a target on my back. After Max was voted off, I realized that my new tribe doesnāt vote based on how useful a person is. They vote based on trust, and thatās something Iām not sure Iāve earned yet. Iāve been doing my best under this weeks circumstances, I just hope itās been good enough
Sky -Ā live footage of me and xavier strategizing:Ā
Sky -Ā OMG I FOUND THE HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL!!!!!!Ā
i told xavier though, which iām starting to regret. i want to trust xavier, but iām afraid heāll flip on me. although, i was able to find the idol because he shared the clues with me, so i think i owed him the knowledge of knowing i have the idol.
Bernel -Ā
So like, yay! I didnāt win Immunity, and thatās part of my strategy, I really want to slip through the cracks as much as I possibly can, but somehow thatās becoming literally. fucking. impossible. So on this tribe I currently have the following alliances:
Myself and Justin
Myself, Justin, and Laure
Myself, Justin, Ben, and Gage
Myself, Justin, Laure, Carly, Jordan (literally just fucking formed RIP me)
So I was personally planning on voting off one of the Carly/Jordan duo, theyāre allegedly thick as thieves and I want one of them off this metaphorical island ASAP. But then Jordan and Carly just HAD to pull me into some alliance which I intentionally had no fucking intention of sticking with. I was actually trying to persuade Justin into just lying to Carly/Jordan and voting off Carly along with Justin, Gage, Ben, and Laure. But then it hit me; this could work out beautifully. If what Laure said is true, about how Carly and Jordan want to link up with their former tribe-mates once we Merge, than this could work out beautifully for me. If I vote off Laura, the one person Iām not aligned with on this tribe, I still have strong bonds with every person on this tribe. In addition to that, Iām trying to let Justin think that heās making all the calls in our duo and I want everyone else to see that too, so theyāll take him out before me.
If I stick with this me/Justin/Laure/Carly/Jordan alliance and I also stick with Justin/Ben/Gage, if the Carly/Jordan/Their other tribe mates alliance happens to actually become a thing at the Merge, I think I can really worm my way in there and basically play all sides and just form a giant cocoon for myself. I really want to make moves and slit throats, but itās all about positioning yourself to be able to do that and then be able to sink back into the shadows. If I can do that, Iām golden.
Jordan -Ā AWWW YAAAAA, Guess whoās not getting voted out tonight, THIS GUY. IN TO THE DI TO THE VI TO THE DU TO THE AL IMMUNITY. With any luck I can convince Carly not to blindside Justin, and get out Laura. Laura is my first target, Laure is my second, let go do this. King Jordan is here to stay.
Ben -Ā Well without immunity I know Iām not safe, Iām going to hope that Justin, Bernel and Gage are loyal - Jordan told me he had interest in voting Laura out which Iād be fine with because it isnāt me, and Jordan could probably get his former tribe too. The only thing that matters right now is not getting voted out, an idol would probably help about now too.
Xavier -Ā Sky is running the game and does not even know it! She has an idol, everyone trusts her, and NOBODY has the balls to go against her. I am glad we are so close because I donāt feel comfortable someone having all that power, but since she is with me I donāt mind it is sky. This might be what everyone is saying but I love sky, and I hope she is saying the same about me.
Xavier -Ā It is between Caroline and Daniel tonight. Both of which seem like sheep but I do not truly know what is the best thing going forward. Lachie, Sky, Catherine, and myself seem to be a very tight four considering we have made every decision since the swap. I donāt know what is happening tonight so hopefully we make the right decision.
Jordan -Ā Laura will be going home tonight, no doubt in my mind about it. and thatās perfect. Truly spectacular that i can say goodbye to the annoying troublesome girl. I know very well that it was Laura who went to Laure and talked about me behind my back. You know what they say, talk bad about a king, get executed, welcome to your execution Laura. Sucks that once again on your first tribal your going home. Oh well, better you than me. See you later, sucker.
Carly -Ā Feeling nervous! Felt really good about everyone voting out Laura. But there was a slip up in the chats and I have reason to believe I may being targeted. Hoping everyone stays true to their word, but who knows in this game. Hereās to hoping!
Ben -Ā Hello merge, itās me Ben, I made it~I have a tough decision here, but Iām pretty sure Iām going to stay close with Sky and Lachie, I donāt know whatās going to happen to be honest, but hey Iāll just yolo it for now.
Bernel -Ā Ugh, itās likely the Merge. Now donāt get me wrong, I love the Merge you know, itās proof that Iāve made it far and clearly picked the right people to align myself with (which is pretty much everyone Iāve encountered by this stage of the game) and that Iāve done well. But it also means I need to do a few things that I wasnāt looking forward to doing;
A) Starting to actually play the game a little bit more brashly instead of subtly putting my ideas in other peopleās heads.
B) Talking to new people. Itās stressful and most people that talk to me donāt really have any intention of getting to know me, they just want a vote.
But yeah, so with the last vote, I was stuck in all these alliances; me/Ben/Gage/Justin, me/Justin/Laure, and Me/Justin/Laure/Carly/Jordan. Now earlier today, Laure accidentally slipped up and said she wanted to vote Carly out in the chat that Carly was fucking in, so THAT was an interesting start to the afternoon. I do appreciate that she did that though, itāll likely be enough to send her packing before me. The way I see it, the Majuro people are gonna regroup, as are the Tabalās. So that leaves me in either an exceptional place or a horrible one. If I can try and keep the Rakaru/Airik alliance intact, thatās a decent voting block of 5/11 people. And if Justin is able to make his Chief Alliance BS that heās planning on then that should possibly be enough to sway some votes our way.
The main thing concerning me now is that if I make it to Finals with Justin, people will see him as a better social player, which is a viable thought, seeing as how I encouraged him to do most of the talking while I strategized, and so Iād lose. That thought is really pushing me towards making a big move, but Iām gonna have to be patient. I want to win, but I know that making it to Finals is half the journey by itself.
Week 5 Confessionals
Xavier -Ā well I chose all the flops. Besides max AND WE VOTED HIM OFF. This is awful. I hope we can win one before we start sucking really REALLY bad.
Ben -Ā Iām worried for Lachie, he didnāt submit a challenge and if he goes well then there goes one of the two people I actually consider myself close to. That also might hurt Sky on her tribe depending on her current situation.Of course, Iām in a nowhere near perfect situation over here, I have Gage maybe and Iāve talked to Justin about an alliance with the two of us, Gage and Bernel, but other than that I donāt really know anybody on my tribe, so Iām sure Iām an easy first boot.
Xavier -Ā Soooo. Danielle tells everyone how shady I am, Justin tells me how close him and Dani are. I get back to camp and Dani wants an alliance? How cute. Dani is going home hopefully.
Jordan - It sucks to be in an alliance with someone you dont trust. Laure has told people she doesnt trust me, she thinks im a huge threat and she says I act like a King. Well fine Laure, you want a king iāll give you a king, I am going to rule this game, the the reign of King Jordan Commence.
Sky -Ā so tabal loses another immunity, surprise, surprise.
right now we have an alliance consisting of myself, xavier, catherine, caroline, and lachie. weāre all voting to evict dani so i think sheās going tonight, unfortunately.Ā
catherine wants to f3 with me and xavier but i also promised lachie i would never write his name down. as much as i love lachie, iām not sure continuing to drag him along would be best for me, considering heās messed up twice now in submitting immunity.
iāve gotten really close to xavier. i love him as a person and iām glad iāve made such a great friend in this game!
if i make it to merge, i hope i can still count on ben and gage but who knows what connections theyāre making over there⦠:ā(
Catherine -Ā So I love this new tribe, we my have lost every comp so far buuuut we are fun! In old tabal we were comp beast and that was awesome but we didnāt talk much and that made it not fun
Ben -Ā Now that both tribes are going to tribal, I made the alliance chat to try and solidify a voting block. Puzzles arenāt my strong suit, so I better try at least something. Hopefully the other 4 arenāt going to try and vote for me.
Week 4 Confessionals
Ben -Ā Well fuck, not only did this tribe swap just royally fuck me, but Iām with the only person on my old tribe I wouldnāt have considered myself close to. The only thing I can do for now is talk to Justin and get good with him, and hope that can stick me into a majority of the tribe. First glances, a lot of them seem annoying already.
Ben -Ā Now that Iāve gotten some time to āget to knowā some tribe mates here are my opinions on them thus far : - )
Gage - Well, as annoying as he may have been on the Majuro tribe, he isnāt as annoying here, and Iāll need him if I want to do anything at all so ya know keep your friends close, your enemies closer, and the annoying people you can beat in the end closest.
Justin - Literally the only one who has helped in the current challenge besides myself. He seems nice enough, and is tribe chief so hopefully I can convince him to work with me. He might become a threat later but for now I have to try and stick with him if I want to get anywhere.
Jordan - On top of having 2 former tribemates on this tribe, Jordan hasnāt proven his worth in this challenge, only giving us (wrong) answers to contestants already figured out by myself or Justin. Heās a bit annoying but I donāt know him all well yet so Iāll wait before I make my decision if heās annoying or just overly friendly.
Bernel - Not too sure about him, he seems nice enough but I really have no idea how to read him. Heās a bit quiet I guess, and hasnāt really helped in the challenge. At least I donāt think heās annoying (yet) so he has that going for him so far.Carly - Well all Iāve seen so far about her is that sheās been on a āhot dateā and I wish her the best with that. It also means she hasnāt talked to a lot of people on the new tribe yet, but at the same time she game in with Jordan and Laure so that doesnāt mean much.
Laure - I tried talking to her, and she went off about Game of Thrones then basically ignored me. She joined this tribe coming in with Carly and Jordan, so that also makes her lose points. I donāt particularly care for her, and she hasnāt done anything else besides talk about her name.Ā
Wilma - Well I saved the best for last. I tried holding a conversation with her, it went nowhere and got boring really fast. I tried conversing by asking about her life and by adding in stuff about me to try and get to know her, didnāt work. She hasnāt been helpful in the challenge and has only insisted number 15 is Will Sims the Second from Worlds Apart without giving any proof, which may be right for all I know, but no picture given as proof means it isnāt reliable. Unfortunately, Iāll need her vote if I want to split up the former airiks.
As I see it, I have to stick with Gage right now which is meh because Iāve decided he isnāt the worst person on our tribe, and it means we can either vote with the former Airiks, all of which I havenāt talked to, or go with Justin and Bernel, as well as Wilma if we can convince herā¦Ā
The way I see it, I might be the next one going home because of this tribe swap⦠I didnāt like my tribe before, and I already wish I had them all back. At least if I had Sky or Lachie Iād have someone to talk to about how much I hate my tribe.Ā
Xavier -Ā On the surface I really like my new tribe! But now that I look pasat the facade of it, I souldnāt be more scared. I think I just screwed myself over in putting so many tabal with me. Sky is nervous, and she should be. I just wish there was a way to tell her that she is my final 2 over anyone else in this game. I will never write her name down, nor screw her over. I just wish there was a way to make evryone happy
Jordan -Ā Ahh, the tribe swap. nice. Iām feeling pretty comfortable. I have my main alliance Carly with me, and Iām with Justin who wants me to be apart of a big alliance which is also nice. honestly i am feeling really good right now. but never get to comfortable.
Xavier -Ā So, I just found out Danielle has been trashing me to the tribe. REALLY? I thought we were friends, but I am not gonna miss her now.Ā
Sky -Ā
caroline:
sheās cool, i like her⦠we bitch about jordan which is always fun.
catherine:
this girl literally told xavier not to trust me because OF A SPEED RANDOM.ORG bb game⦠are you serious? c'mon girl, iām already tired of you.
dani:
iāve known dani for forever⦠but she literally just voted britt out of their tribe last week so idk if i can even trust her.
daniel:
literally have barely spoken to this kid, apparently heās good at comps tho? could be a threat down the lineā¦
lachie:
i want to go to the finals with lachie. heās my truest bae, and i love him.
max:Ā
once again
xavier:Ā
i LOVE xavier⦠he gave me all the clues to the hidden immunity idol (who does that?) and claims iām the only one he wants to go far with. it just scares me that there are 4 original tabal members on our tribe now and heās the one who picked. he claimed we can vote one of them out the first tribal, but i donāt know if i can fully trust him. i want to go far with him though, cause i really like him. for now, iām just gonna play it cool.
Ben -Ā āI think we all did great" I hate having to lie through my teeth, it was clear who helped and who didnāt from Rakuruā¦Laura, Laure and Carly didnāt do anything and Bernel was nearly invisible. Jordan and Gage helped a bit, but for the most part it was Justin and I solving everything⦠hopefully Iām able to use that to my advantage on this tribe.
Daniel -Ā My first ever tribal council⦠āinvigoratingā would be a fun word to use. I think I have safety this round. The Old Tabal 4 with Lachie and Sky is 6/8 votes, which is great for two rounds. I have to decide where my loyalties lie before everyone else does.
Lachie -Ā First off by just letting me say, I CANT BELIEVE I SURVIVED THE FIRST TRIBAL! Thank the upmost LORD for Skyler and Ben for pulling through for me with that vote. Now onto the tribe swap, and holy fuck I am absolutely terrified. I thought we were going to win the immunity challenge and that ultimately screwed up, and because of the fact that I am 1) a returnee 2) here with my F2 Sky 3) Also here with a returning player from Matsu, Danielle, There is more than enough reason to get rid of me.
Luckily for me though, through the connection of Sky and Xavier, Iāve managed to place myself within a majority alliance consisting of Xavier/Sky/Myself/Caroline and Catherine. Whilst this is all nice and fun, I donāt particularly trust it 100%. Xavier seems shady as FUCK and I donāt know why. He just seems to be this alpha male type who would freak out if he wasnāt in control. Also because of the fact whenever I try to talk to him itās like talking to a brick wall heās just so short. Then there is Catherine who seems to be his right hand woman, who again if I try to talk to wonāt give me anything. So they are duo I am terrified of. Then also in the alliance in Caroline who is sweet and I really like, but I donāt think Xavier would of taken her in unless he knew he had some sort of control over her. So whilst Iāll probably use it for 1 or 2 votes for the tribe swap, I want Xavier especially gone ASAP.Ā
Now for the others on my tribe, Daniel is really really cool, and I really want to work with him in the long run. Heās being targeted hardcore by the rest of the tribe for doing this so I hope he can back this down because itās kinda hard trying to save his ass. Danielle is also really cool. I did vote her out in Matsu but I hope we can move on and work well with each other down the road. And then there is Max. Something about Max makes me really nervous, and Iām not sure why.. Iām trying really hard to get him out today and hopefully people will open up and realize what a potential snake in the grass he could be if he makes the merge.Ā
Laure -Ā Sorry I havenāt written in recently, Iām way too cool and too popular to deal with pre-swap confessionals. Ā Sorryzā¦. loooolllll
So to summarize it: Jordan is shady, I posted to my alliance chat about how shady he is, I accidentally posted it to the main chat instead, which you think would warrant him not talking to me (which would be good cause his kind of annoying) but noā¦.. he still wants to work with meā¦. he has so much better options in this new tribe, but I have the BEST option
which is young tusty
Justin and I know each other. Ā SHOCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which is actually a surprise since I donāt know who the fuck the other returnees are. Ā He is also the only one I wanted to work with, so good for me. Ā As of right now, Justin and I have been on a call call for 4 hours and 35 minutes, where we learned how to do sneaky shit. Ā Like use a program that generates skype quotes, so we can ruin friendships and the patriarchy. Ā
Will Laure and Justin use this power for good or evil?
Find out on the next episode of Dragonball Z
(Spoiler: probably evilā¦ā¦ hopefully to vote out that bitch Jordan. Ā His not a good player, you seem nice, but omg stop)Ā
Xavier - So, me and Catherine have decided to vote with Sky and Lachie. This hopefully sends Max home. I hope I am being smart⦠I feel bad because it is MY fault we are in this situation. Danielle should be the one going and I am horribly sad that Max has to go.
Xavier -Ā Now I am nervous. Nobody is responding to me! If I go home I assume Danielle and Catherine flipped on me. I may be over thinking it, but I hope I didnāt make a mistake in flipping
Week 3 Confessionals - Created By Jordan Pines Because Torsa Was Too Lazy To Do It
Jordan - You know whats nice? Not being on another tribe of incompetent people at challenges, Ā you know whats nice? not being betrayed by your entire alliance. You know whats nice? Not going home in fourth fucking place again. but do you know whats not nice? looking for this fucking idol because the clue is its a male survivor and this is a fucking impossible task and im pretty sure that justin has already found it and lying about the clue as well even though i know he is. ya, other than that things are nice.
Xavier - So, I won at Chiefās Island again, but sadly I got an idol clue. This means I have to lie to my tribe and say I lost. This may make me look expendable and that makes me worried. At least now me and Sky can look for this idol together and hopefully find it so we can go far together. I love sky she is amazing. If there is anyone who I feel close to it is her.
Daniel - i like to think that iām doing great being a challenge threat. highest score all three weeks (including the week where everyone got 100%)! hopefully my likeability and my challenge strength make up for the fact that i havenāt talked any game. besides, xavier is doing incredibly at chiefs and the rest of the team is great too. iāve only really talked to max and catherine personally and catherine a little game⦠so should i be worried? i donāt know⦠i feel like now is too early to tell
Week 2 Confessionals
Xavier - I donāt really feel close to anyone on my tribe besides Catherine and I donāt really feel like I talk to her that much. On the other hand, me and sky are already really close and I could see us going far together. I hope me and sky get to be on the same tribe soon! We would be an iconic duo
Caroline - We had a lot of conversations after Jordan got back last night. Im not sure what to think of some of the things heās said. I guess weāll really only know for certain when and if we have a tribe swap. Although heās been a great help to me in the beginnings of this game, I canāt trust him, and my alliance doesnāt either. While we had Seamus, it was certain that he would be the first from out tribe to go, but now if we go to tribal, it could be him, or it could be a tie. It all depends on Carly.
Sky - oh chiefās island, what a twisto twist. i love you because you gave me xavier but i hate you because you gave me jordan.
how i feel when xavier speaks:
how i feel when jordan speaks:
Bernel - So this is an interesting week on the Rakaru tribe. I finally made a game move and formed an alliance called The Rakaru 4 consisting of myself, Justin, Brit, and Dani. So pretty much everyone besides Will. I tried to make Justin feel like he was in complete control of the alliance and I hope Dani thinks that too. I think it has a 50/50 chance of succeeding, but I do think itās likely that there could be/is an alliance without me and I could be on the chopping block. For some reason, Tribe Chief and new ally of mine Justin chose to sit me out of the challenge, and it looks like everyone has pretty much flopped at this challenge. So it looks like a guarantee that the Rakaruās will be headed to Tribal Council, and I may be going home and be the first boot. Wish me luck!
Xavier - I AM SO HAPPY WE WON. Me and sky are both safe and I couldnāt be happier! I made a mistake about not talking to anyone after chiefs island. Now, I need to change that. Iām going to work with Catherine for sure and hopefully we can get a third in case we go to tribal. I am SO HAPPY though!!!!!!
Justin - So I got a clue to the hidden immunity idol on Chiefs Island, but itās so vague. Hopefully I can get a few more and hopefully get that idol. Jordan Pines also had a clue to the hidden immunity idol and created an alliance with me. The other two chiefs, Sky and Xavier, have also been hinting at creating an alliance with me - there has even been talk of a final 4 between all the chiefs. Iām skeptical of it at the moment - this time around I am not jumping into any alliances too fast.With that being said, my tribe miserably failed at the challenge by getting the 3 lowest scores out of everyone competing in the challenge. This is my 4th time playing and I donāt want to be part of a losing tribe. At the moment I have a good relationship with Bernel, Brittany, and Danielle. Iāve talked to all 3 of them and have convinced them that they want to join an alliance with the other two called The Rakuru Four. Our first target is William, so letās hope that works out.However, William wants Brittany out and has created an alliance with Danielle and Brittany. Iām paranoid because all it takes is 3 votes to vote me out, so this would be the prime opportunity to do it. Iāve never been able to lay back and chill in these games because when I do I get voted off. Bernel and Danielle could be playing me right now and tricking me into thinking I am safe. If thatās the way I go out of the game, then good on them - I love a good blindside haha! If I can make it past this tribal council I will have the ability to create a solid alliances. Letās see what happens. I feel terrible about tribal council tomorrow, but at this point there is nothing I can do to change my fate if I do go home. Ā ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Caroline - Well today was pretty eventful. Our tribe would have come out on top if it hadnāt been for Xavierās 10%, which Jordan informed us that he got again. I want to know what else he knows, but both Laure and I will know soon since we aligned with Carly. Carly aligned with Jordan, but she says she doesnāt trust him and thats where our alliance comes in. If we end up going to tribal, we take out Jordan with Carlyās help. If sheās lying, weāll end up with a tie, which is basically where we would have gotten without her. We found the tribal that booted Jordan the first time, and oh boyā¦.as much as heād love to say heās ālearned from his mistakesā he definitely hasnāt. I agree with just about everything said in that tribal session about him. Heās asked everyone in our tribe for an alliance but me, and honestly Iām slightly offended because I am a national treasure lol. But based on that fact, one can only assume Iām his target. Im confident that my alliance with Carly and Laure will pull through if we go to tribal.
Ben - Glad we came in third place in the challenge today, and with the best score on my tribe I doubt theyāre gonna call me a weak link and vote me out next time we lose. Gage came and annoyed me today asking if he was on the bottom of the tribe, which obviously he is, but I didnāt tell him that : - )
Week 1 Confessionals
Ben - We started 30 minutes ago, and 30 minutes into this game I already dislike my tribe. Weāve got Lachie, who is infamous for his premade in Matsu Islands, weāve got Jason from Mali who wants to āimprove on his mistakesā yet made one by joining this game, weāve got Skyler whose biggest goal in life is to marry an actor who has an IQ equivalent to the amount of Oscars heās won, and then we have Gage, who hasnāt even accepted my Skype request, so I canāt exactly bitch about him, but Iām sure heās boring anyway based off his bio. So yeah send help.
Lachlan - Oh my god this is so exciting to be back playing tumblr survivor again. Last time I felt I was there for such a short time, and being idoled pre-merge, I never really got to have the full experience, like making merge and things like that. Iām really happy with my tribe and feel Iām getting along with everyone quite well, I hope as a returnee I donāt have a big target on my back and i donāt #FLOP as bad as I did last time in MatsuĀ
Justin - Okay so itās been a year since Iāve played Tumblr Survivor. My last season was season 9 (I think) and really Iām just excited to get back into it. I āretiredā, so I donāt know if anyone was expecting me to come back to play again. Last time I played I was a huge threat physically and with my alliances, and was ultimately voted off by the only person I trusted in the game - Sam. This time Iām going to be more cutthroat and just use people. Iām not going to trust people, but I will get them to trust me by making fake connections with them. Right now I am working on Danielle and Bernal - they seem the most laid back and into the game right now, but weāll see once I get to know Brittany and William a little bit better. I really want that title and $15 iTunes gift card - thatās a lot of shitty music I could buy with that money.Overall Iām very excited to be back. I donāt really know any of these returning players, besides Laure. Laure is going to come at me ASASFC (as soon as she fucking can). Iām going to try and limit my challenge abilities and only pull them out when I need them. I will be employing a new strategy based on opportunity. I will flip and flop till I get my self in a strong position that I can ride to the end. Hopefully the new players donāt take me out quickly, because I really want to win one of these things already haha.
Jordan - Allright, so i see the tribe and my first thought is, I can work with this. Truth be told I like everyone except for Laure, so maybe I came in here thinking Iād be tight with my fellow returnee, she might have to be the first to go. I became really close with Carly and weāve decided we want to make a three way alliance and we are thinking about adding either Seamus or Caroline. Were gonna wait to see how things play out before we make our decision. Either way its looking good for me right now. But hey, I thought I was safe before in Machu Picchu and look at me now.
Xavier - I am so excited for this game! I like how I donāt really have a history in this community! It will be fun to try and make a name for myself. This will be the best game ever!
Ben - Iāll vote lachie for team captain - it seems that he knows both sky and jason which can be dangerous for me and itās annoying that people have connections in this game whereas I know little to nobody but yeah you know fuck my tribe and what not
Brittany - so I love my tribe, weāre all super cute, I would hate to vote one of them off this early, so I hope we can stay strong and win competitions. I donāt mind Justin being our Chief as thatās who itās most likely going to be. I think heāll be a great leader. He seems to have the perfect balance of a great personality, and great competition abilities. I have talked to Danielle the most on my tribe, I love her so much. I hope we can stay together for most of the game. Iām pretty new to this community, and sheās played before, so I presume she can help me get through this game.
Caroline - Well the Airik tribe seems pretty cool. Iām still trying to get to know everyone. And Iām still not sure how this game works. I feel like the leader should be a returnee, but Iām worried because I donāt know what the responsibilities of that position so I canāt really judge who it should be accurately
Bernel - Hey Tumblr Survivor! Iām pretty excited to be cast and try and win my first game! Right now, Iām really feeling everyone on my tribe. The only person that I havenāt spoken to is William and Iām going to change that very, very soon. Justin looks like the lead candidate to become the Chief of our tribe. Hopefully that doesnāt give him too much power, and if we start to lose challenges Iām sure heāll be an easy first boot. Iām just worried that alliances might be being started without me, and thatās a concerning thought.
Danielle -
Walking onto this island like
Want first impressions? Iāll give you first impressions. Brittany My fucking queen. IRL, shes one of my absolute best friends. in this game? who the fuck knows. Justin I was immediatly threatened by him. 3 past seasons? Fuck man. But i went onto his wiki page, and he seems like a pretty loyal guy! He was giving me a vibe earlier that seemed to say āletās stick togetherā because he was saying things like [6:38 PM] Justin: So lowkey, I hope that we arenāt targetted first for being returnees. So weāll see how this all plays out! (UPDATE- HE PROPOSED A F2. IM SO FUCKING DOWN also hes lowkey super hot js) Bernel Applied to RealityRoulette! 100% a newbie, and so iām a little worried being a returnee but William-
hasnt been online -hasnt talked in tribe chat -hasnt added me back its been like 4 hours man wow. someone mentioned him and I was like
Gage - Omg Iām so excited to get started and everyone seems so nice. Skyler and Jason seem like super survivor fans, Lachlan is pretty helpful and chill and Ben seems nervous yet excited. I would prefer not to be tribe leader just because we have returning players who might know more than we do, plus it could a huge target on my back if Iām leader and I screw everything up.
Carly - I guess this is my āconfessionalā I suppose! Uhm so far so good! Having fun. Been talking a bit individually with Jordan & also Caroline and a bit Seamus. Jordan and I I think are close (he might be two timing me lol who knows in this game) but itās good, we want a third person to make an alliance but weāre not sure who yet. Maybe Caroline. But weāre gunna wait till we have to vote till we get there I think. And as for chief, Iām thinking of voting one of the returnees just cause they kinda already have a feel for the game. I wanna vote Jordan but he doesnāt sound like he wants to be leader. So Iām not sure. Thatās about all I got for you at the moment lol!
sky - so iām a part of the majuro tribe and so far i like everyone. i love lachlan especially and we both have already promised each other that we wonāt write each otherās names down. awesome! only bad thing is⦠I WAS PICKED AS FUCKING LEADER AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS OMG
Jordan - No surprise, I was voted chief. Hopefully this goes survivor samoa style and a leader isnāt voted out the entire game. So chiefs Island is okay, I will be going back there a few times so Iāll maybe bring up a cross tribe alliance in a little bit, seeing how things go. But thank my lucky stars, I came second in reward and got a nice little idol clue to satisfy me. Itās so simple in its ideal that itās a male and I just need to go through every single male in survivor history. And I can only guess once an hour. Itās gonna take a while, but as long as I can stay in the game long enough I will have a nice little idol. Woop di doo for me.
Laure - Well here I am againā¦ā¦ third time back, and I just donāt know how to feel about this cast on my small little tribeā¦ā¦.I like Seamus a lot, his pretty cool to talk to, and Caroline is p chill, so I approached the two for an alliance. Ā Itās not a very talkative alliance though, but this tribe isnāt very talkative. Ā I wouldnāt be surprised if there were some inactives (Carly maybe I havenāt heard much from her) but whatever that just gives me a couple of placements higher for when we go to tribal.At least it was a super easy challenge, because when the flash games come we arenāt going to win shit. Ā Iām here and Laura and Justin are on other tribes. Ā So we lose those automatically.Itās so hard being the only returnee on my tribe! Ā Oh apparently there is this Jordan guy. Ā He was in some season and is some kind of pre-merge boot. Ā Apparently he thinks highly of himself. Ā I know his new to this community, but he asked me what my past seasonās and placements were WHEN THE CAST ANNOUNCEMENT SAID OUR PAST SEASONāS AND PLACEMENTS. In the words of Justin T.Raitor āI have never been so insulted in all my lifeā Ā Like do some researchā¦. maybe especially do some research⦠when youāre in a season that has the Chiefās Island twist, and you could learn about this twist if you examine the Tumblr Survivor season called āChiefās Islandā(hey Nic, you know Matt asked Austin if he could use Chiefās Island and Austin said no? Ā Matt Summers is so offended by this omg)Research would be helpful. Ā I legit just released a podcast interviewing Austin and Jessica about Chiefās Islandā¦ā¦. this twist was designed to put a target on the chief, because they are the only ones that have access to perks. Ā That stuff doesnāt benefit us. Ā Apparently everyone in Chiefās Island was fucking drunk or something, because no one ever voted Samās ass out until way later, but I am going to use the target argument here, because I just donāt like the vibes Iām getting from Jordan. Ā I have no need for him.So thatās where I amā¦. in an alliance of 3, a fellow returnee Iām not so keen on and I donāt know how to feel about Chiefās Island. Ā I s2g if there is a twist that splits us from a few tribes into more tribes (8 tribes of 2 letās do it) I will quit. Ā Fuck Chiefās Island.Anyway I promised my friend Jenn that I would make confessionals pretending to be Vegeta from Dragonball Zā¦.. so here I go: What is this? Ā Doesnāt Jordan know I the strongest being in the universe? Ā His going to come at me like his some superior warrior? Ā The bloody fool needs to go back to Earth and cry to his mother, his out of his league here.I am the prince of all Sayians! Ā I have no time to spar with these irrelevant human blood bags. Ā I must make a tribe swap or merge, because I heard rumors that Justin might be a super sayian, a warrior of legend? Ā Do I believe it? Ā No absolutely not. Ā I am the supreme being of this universe. Ā These nats can go on floating around the fruit of failure, but in the end I will have the less laugh as I stomp on the bodies of my enemies while the rest pledge their loyalty to me!
Xavier - So, I am glad that I am the chief because I am the only one who will truly know what happens at cheifs island. However, I will miss a lot of time at the tribe camp and the other four people might get very close. I am nervous that I will slowly become the outsider. I am going to become an asset for my tribe and win the majority of these challenges so I can show it wouldnāt be smart to vote me out.
Caroline - Laure, Seamus, and I formed an alliance last night. Laure initiated it, saying she felt good vibes off of both me and Seamus. Im excited because theyāre both pretty cool. The challenge was relatively easy. I got 100% on my second try. Im confused a little about how the whole Chiefs Island thing is going to work, but then again, so is my whole tribe it seems. When Jordan gets back hopefully weāll understand it a little better.Ā
Daniel - i should probably talk to my tribe mates considering i was MIA for the first two days after the cast announcement and nobody is talking to me but i get weirdly nervous thinking about itā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ is this normal? probably
Ben - Well here we are, losing the first challenge, because Lachie didnāt submit his challenge. To be honest, there isnāt even a way to know if weād win if he had won so I donāt necessarily care, but I donāt enjoy going to tribal already. Now I have to actually talk to people in attempt to stay safe, and with these people it doesnāt seem like it will be easy.
Gage - Skyler got elected tribe leader and Iām so happy for her š.
We lost the 1st immunity challenge because Lachlan forgot to send in an immunity scorešššš
Now he is trying to scramble saying he was so stressed because of final exams. I really do feel bad for him but it this could happen again.
Me jason and Skyler seem to have an alliance of 3. I really like both of them but Jason seems really scary (especially with a name like queen cirie) so Iām gonna have to watch out for him.
Ben - In short, this is one big mes. I hate having to deal with people who have the intelligence equivalent to that of a dull knife, but it seems our friend Gage here is trying to play godfather and tell everyone to submit their votes, whilst not even submitting his own.On the other hand, we have Jason who talks to everyone about game, talks to everyone about how he will talk to me about game, and then messages me about college and stops replying. He also made a chat to vote out lachie with Gage and Sky that wait⦠I wasnāt invited to? I mean we talk game all the time, right?! Ā Lachie, who is apparently their target, has been MIA and wants to vote Jason out which honestly sounds great to me right now, one because voting Lachie out would be too boring to do, and two because Jason and Gage are annoying, and getting rid of at least one of them should at least raise our tribeās IQ.Sky is the only person I actually have found myself enjoying to talk to, which sucks because I canāt even talk to her half of the time because sheās the tribe chief and all that. If sheās being honest, the whole vote seems to rest in our hands, we can either go with tweedle-dumb and tweedle-idiot and vote lachie, or we can hope lachie will be more active and vote out Jason.
Sky - damn it! weāre going to fucking tribal CAUSE LACHIE DIDNāT SUBMIT THE CHALLENGE!!!!! oh, lachie!
but, i think ben and i have hatched a plan⦠we have to talk to lachie but i think thereās a strong possibility that jason or gage will be going home tonight, fingers crossed! itās definitely going to be a blindside, but i think itās best for both ben and iās games. speaking of ben, i love him and he and lachie are the only two i trust on this tribe. gage is annoying. and jason only talks to me when he needs something. so iām looking forward to hopefully seeing one of them go tonight.
Lachie - FUCK I FUCKED UP. I FUCKING FUCK FUCKED UP. Iām such a god damn idiot for forgetting to post the challenge.. like what was I literally thinking???????????? oh my GOD. Thankfully though, I think Iāve managed to salvage something and managed to stay in the game. Ben and Skyler are literally my angels right now.. and if I donāt go home tonight we have a solid final 3 going forward which is fantastic. Ben is great and we get along really well and I hope we go in deep with each other. Skyler is also really fantastic, she literally has my back Iām pretty sure 100% and you donāt know how comforting this is within the game. The only issue is this could be like last time when I was with Grace, and I really donāt want the same thing happening when I alienated myself to basically one person. Gage is kinda surprisingly shady, I mean there was a very good reason to vote me out but heās being really wishy-washy about it, tellig me heāll consider it but really campaigning to both Ben and Skyler to vote me out. Like donāt be a coward and just tell me, it aint that hard. And then there is Jason who I wouldnāt have a clue is doing because whenever I talk to him itās like talking to a brick wall, like come on man give me SOMETHING. But hopefully heāll be going home, and we wonāt be having to deal with his non-talkative ass anymore
