well. not like i was getting sam's jury vote in the first place. :/
*Moments Later*
alright i'm just gonna pretend i would've voted sam if i actually had time to think about this vote and the jury will never be the wiser huh
anyways if jake wins this season i'll throw up. sam's probs voting christine if he's still under the delusion that I'm getting Barrie's votes. so is mitch probably. idk what junior's doing also i just realized this entire final 3 blindsided junior lmao
*Moments Later*
When I realize Jake probably would have gone home after Punpun's tribal if it wasn't for Emma's elimination...yikes. Honestly I kinda just wanna make my opening statement a drag of Jake for fun and see what happens. I sent him a message like 6 hours ago and he never responded, what a binch.
*Moments Later*
@god give me a blessing and make me the michele to jake NOW christine is tai because she's like, old. also she had an idol. nothing really there. jake is aubry because he's sorta rootable but also his social game! yikes.jpg i'm michele because i stay in my lane and if i won i'd probably get death threats
OR jake is wiglesworth because he won challenges and stuff christine is rudy because again she's old. hopefully she's not a homophobe. i'm richard because i'm gay.
anyways my ftc opening speech was a flop i talked about my f**lings and probably should have focused on my actual game more but hopefully i can do that with the questions. i kinda skimmed over the others' speeches because i'm slowly losing it and i also don't need any more reasons to hate myself. but it looks like jake is the contender to win yikes. but also lol at him talking about social skills when he acknowledged he probably has three people pissed off at him. but at least i was genuine in my speech!!! I really do have shitty self confidence and it's not just exclusive to this game either! I really do spend every night reviewing the mistakes I had made and Survivor only makes it worse speaking of which I'm about to go to bed soon so I need to start my self-loathing.
Anyways. As I said, if Jake wins I will actually die. Like my body will like collapse instantly. Christine, while not as flashy, hasn't pissed me off. Honestly can we just have a surprise f2 and boot me and then I can tell everyone to vote Christine??? Thanks.
ALSO if I actually do get the Barries' votes (Lydia's not really a Barrie so I'm not counting her) I would probably like find a religion. If I could win just on the fact that I'm the last Barrie member that'd be nice bye.
*Moments Later*
me when Rhea asks me to compare jurors to books and despite our convos about books i've read like one and a half i-
But also the first question already dragging Jake??? I love this song!
*Moments Later*
Jake just told me Aubry should have won what the hell this makes him winning even worse g2g2g2g
*Moments Later*
Alright if Jake continues to be hated by jurors I'm gonna pretend it was my master plan to bring him to the end since he was so hated. I thank God that none of them can see my confessionals because they'd realize that I'm even more clueless than I already let on.
*Moments Later*
reactions to the jurors in total: junior: honestly if he does vote me I think it's hilarious. also someone's bitter at christine??? wow lydia: i didn't watch her full video i just skipped through it lol i know she's not voting me! My favorite part was "Kevin, you have the skills to win a game...not this game but a game!" But it was nicer than I was expecting so I'm not mad and yes my game has been messy jordan: ...yikes. don't blame him though. Kendall: Me too. Chris: I love his questions but I'm using the avatar wiki for this I don't know these people Rhea: <3 Alex: Where on earth did you get your info from Sam and Mitch: ???? Where? Where are they?
Episode 15 Confessionals
#LastOriginalBarrieStandingXoxo #LastDecentHumanBeingStandingXoxo
Sooo I pretty much knew Rhea was going home tonight because who on earth is voting for Sam??? But I, being a human being who possess virtues such as kindness, empathy, and care, decided to stay true to my word and vote Christine because that's what I said to everyone I talked to. Jake decides to once again flip because...reasons. I mean it's kinda stupid to talk about my quote unquote loyalty to the person who voted me last night but whatever!!! I don't care if I'm irrational let me hate Jake in peace okay.
Anyways can someone besides Jake win immunity??? Like maybe me. In the past three (3) seasons of REAL Survivor the final immunity winner won the game so maybe that can mean something. Honestly if I do get voted out in the r.obbed f4 g.oddess style that I expect myself, I'll 1. truly embrace my role of Eliza Orlins, and 2. probably be extremely bitter and vote for Christine because down with Jake. Buuut hopefully I can at least pretend I have a shot of beating these people!!! The fact that my win was dependent on an f2 says something. Christine messaged me last night saying wow that was something and then I responded and she never replied even though I was intending on saying I was gonna vote Jake next (and if it spills who cares at this point???).
I think it's also funny how I knew all but one of the prejury people yet I can't identify any of these prejury quotes. First of all two of them were inactive. I'm convinced Zack must have made 1000 confessionals because I have him for like half of these.
*Moments Later*
List of things that I have done that are noteworthy enough to brag about at FTC: 1. Survive every tribal (so far) Denise Stapley style 2. Not betraying my allies at every other tribal 3. ???
Well FTC is already looking fun. :~)
*Moments Later*
I forgot that Lydia hated me up until I read Rites of Passage g2g2g2g
*Moments Later*
alright so. christine's winning i don't care. i don't really know how people feel about jake which would be REALLY helpful but I don't wanna risk it because I know I'm gonna be the follower next to him. but christine's a sweetheart and has actually done things while i've kinda flopped and pissed at least one person off...
yikes!
*Moments Later*
Lydia reminds me of that one video where the girl's like "hi good morning" to everyone and then one girl says hey and the first girl's like "not you, you can choke." I'm pretty sure I'm getting at least one death threat at final tribal but I've come up with a brilliant plan. I'll vote Christine instead and probably lose the tiebreaker (unless Jake flips!) and I won't have to deal with this shit. Then I can live my life pretending I was a robbed final four goddess and join Cydney, Kelley, Eliza, Natalie B, and others in our tears.
I'm laughing at these final immunity posts honestly. I'm so screwed. Sam wants me gone. Kevin has continuously gone after me and him having immunity doesn't help me at all. Basically I'm done for so it's been fun! Like...I guess my best case is to go after Jake but I don't even think I'll have the numbers to do that. I'm either going home or I'm in a tie breaker so I'm just hoping for a miracle at this point. I'm gonna try talking to Sam and see if he might wanna work to get Jake out but I just don't know. Whew. This should be interesting to say the least.
I'D LIKE TO THANK GOD, JESUS CHRIST, GAGA, ELIZA ORLINS, CIRIE FIELDS, TAYLOR SWIFT, AND JESSICA (THE SAPPHIRE ISLES ONE) FOR THIS MIRACLE. HOPEFULLY THE FINAL IMMUNITY STREAK CONTINUES IN TUMBLR SURVIVOR AS WELL. I ALSO WANT TO DIE BECAUSE I CHECKED ALMOST EVERY HOUR FOR THE FUCKING ENDURANCE CHALLENGE INCLUDING IN SCHOOL AND THESE BITCHES HAD TWO DAYS AND DID IT LIKE ONCE OR TWICE WHAT THE FUCK. WHATEVER.
anyways. sorry for that I needed to scream somewhere and I don't think my family would appreciate it so you're on the receiving end.
so, voting. for once in my life i can feel safe. So I have two options. Jake is obviously going for Christine and Christine and Sam have no choice but to go for Jake (whew, finally!). Now I see Christine as a social threat mostly because Jake has no empathy or sympathy buuut I think Jake winning in a tiebreaker against Christine would be more impressive to the jury and I don't want to add yet another thing to Jake's resume because hunty you've done enough go to rest!
Okay so I spilled the beans to Christine and Jake seems to finally be buried in his grave but don't ever count your chickens before they hatch because he's a snake who like, eats chicken babies. Honestly I feel like I'm giving the win to Christine but she's a nice girl and she at least seems to have mastered the social game. All I have to do now is prepare for the jury to kill me.
So I know for a fact I don't have Lydia's. I think I have Chris and Kendall down, the rest of the Barrie's could be up in the air. Besides them, maybe Austin. As for the people who I never intiated conversation with (not like they tried either!), they're probably going to Christine. I'm just waiting to sue Lydia for harassment of a minor.
G2G2G2G2G APPARENTLY SAM TALKED TO JAKE ABOUT VOTING FOR CHRISTINE? FUCK. JUST WHEN THINGS ARE GOING MY WAY. EVERYTHING HURTS.
Wait ok disregard my last confessional cause
[10:21:44 PM] Kevin 🌹: Soo now we have tribal yikes [10:22:09 PM] Kevin 🌹: And I'll be honest I'm likely gonna vote jake which is where your votes are going probs
There might actually be hope for me!? Whew, I hope Kevin's not lying to me because he's giving me so much hope right now its not even funny. Hopefully I can get Sam on board with this too??? I guess we'll see omg.
this is........................ probably.................. the worst thing......................... that could have........................ ever happened.............................................. BUT............................. christine going.......................................... could better my game........................ although................. i think i would have done better with kevin going............................................ however................................................ christine has a lot of friends on jury.......................................... and will prob get credit for all the moves i made her do................................... so................... oh well........................ i just feel rly bad bc,......................................... she was my ride or die............................................... the sugar to my spice....................................... and now my queen is being dethroned......................................... to make way for the crowning of a new queen......................................................... and it's me betches................................................... so........................................................................................ sorry christine ilysm......................................................... this sux.....................
Me when I realize there's a great chance of Sam flipping Me when I realize the winner of Jake vs Christine will be impressive Me when I realize just how messy Jake's social game is Me when I realize how many less people Christine has betrayed than Jake, if any people at all Yikes.
*Moments Later*
IS SAM HIGH HE WANTS TO BE VOTED OUT AND VOTE FOR THE WINNER BITCH I AM NOT GOING TO THE END WITH CHRISTINE AND JAKE OTHERWISE I MIGHT AS WELL BE FUCKING BECKY
Episode 14 Confessionals
Kendall hates Jake now (girl me too!) and Jake is all like, "ummmm well she would've gotten like 9th place if it wasn't for me!!!!" as if that all justifies him flipping but okay sure!
*Moments Later*
At this point, I hope I'm the Michele to Jake's Aubry because this bitch will not!!! go!!!! But I mean if he won immunity I guess things went to plan or whatever.
Soooo Christine wants to vote Rhea (again! wow!) for reasons according to Jake (also who let Jake be the center of info???) And I really wanted Christine out but Jake refuses to move and wants Rhea out because he thinks Rhea will want him out at f4 (which is a good thing but whatever!) Rhea is easier to beat in competitions, at least flash games, but she definitely has a respectable social game and at least one supporter in Lydia and who knows how well she's influencing the jury. I think I have Kendall, Chris, maybe Alex Jordan or Austin. And really I'm praying for an f2 because the only person I'm confident I can beat is Sam and everyone wants to take Sam to the end and I cannot take Jake out but he just had to have immunity huh!!!! And to be honest I'd rather risk taking Rhea than Jake because as I've said in every confessional Jake has been responsible for every merge flip. While I think Rhea is more of a threat I also think I will be able to work with Rhea more easily at final 4 more than I will be able to with Christine because with Rhea there's already a well established connection, I hope. Jake's only flaw is his rather messy social awareness or whatever, I don't know how to phrase it. Like when he talked about how Kendall owed him. Like maybe that's the only example but it just pissed me off. Anyways that's the latest from the Anti Jake show, see ya later.
*Moments Later*
I love those moments when I'm talking to Rhea and it's transparently obvious that she does not agree with your plan and she will not go with your plan and yet she keeps nodding her head and is like "oh that's interesting" and you're a desperate bitch who's been on the bottom this entire merge so I just keep talking because I'm really done with everything and the whole time I'm just internally screaming. Also by "those moments" I mean almost every conversation about the game that I've had with her in this game. Because I'm just like "hey Christine has been targeting you like 20 times and also she's definitely taking Sam over you any day so might as well jump ship!" but I mean who makes moves in Survivor am I right? And boy am I glad for this idol. But tbh I'm hesitating to take someone who insists on being a sitting duck (I don't think that's how the metaphor is used who cares). Idk I'll talk to Jake but honestly do I want him to make ANOTHER decision??? The answer is no.
okay i won immunity again?? fuck. i rly didnt want to win because i had my idol anyway but whatever. i gave my idol to kevin to solidify that he wouldnt go against me in the final 4. and if i have kevin and christine in the final 4.. 2 people who wouldnt vote me out.. i'll be solid? unfortunately rhea has to go this tribal because i think the jury would respect her game because she's made moves and social bonds throughout the game. i think rhea really trusts me in this game and no matter what shes going to be mad at me and i could possibly lose her vote. i pray she understands the move and i just rly wanna win a game for once lol pls. but um yeah im so fucking stressed out with this shit and a bunch of shit irl and im hating life rn im prob gonna go afk until after tribal because i literally can't. i just feel like breaking down rn bc i feel like a complete asshole and horrible person and if i dont even win in the end i'll feel so bad......... like if christine beats me then i'll actually feel like shit and probably won't be able to forgive myself. christine has played a good game but i think i've definitely played better? even though we've played closely, we played very differently and i hope i can explain that. whatever i just want. this week to be over. im done
Am I even getting votes tonight??? Rhea is apparently voting Christine but I think she also said that about Alex (which in hindsight wasn't a smart idea at all but who cares!!!) Christine is trying to betray Rhea and we're trying to get Christine but Jake will probably #fuckitup as usual and Sam??? Who knows what Sam is doing. He's probably gonna be the one vote for me. But who cares. If Rhea goes it's Christine or Jake's fault.
(ps I don't think there's one confessional since final 6 that hasn't been me complaining about Jake)
OK. HI. So I'm playing my idol tonight and I'm like 99% I don't need it but better safe than sorry, you know? I'm thinking of playing it for Sam just in case Jake chickens out of going for Rhea but I know Kevin's probably voting for me so...yeah. I don't know if I wanna take that risk. But hopefully things go according to plan??? I hope. But after this I'm lowkey thinking about targeting Jake. Like, I adore him but...we've played pretty similar games and he's definitely played it better. I've been there done that with that strategy and I don't feel like losing to it again (no offense Kait, love you!) But yeah...If he doesn't win immunity it might be in my best favor to make a tie or something, but we'll see!
Episode 13 Confessionals
oh hey, it's just me and my alliance, being iconic. Personally the Sam plan would've been greater but he is an easier opponent. And right now I'm in final 6 which is something I've never dreamed of???
But this final 6 is wayyyy too overloaded with people who are...too threatening. You have Jake who was pretty much responsible for Rhea's flip and organized the Junior flip and could be seen as the head of the alliance, Kendall who's Kendall, and Christine who manages to still be well liked. Like I know I've said this a million times this season but I'll say it louder this time: I cannot stay with my current alliance and think I have a good chance of winning unless I do something big. Buuuut here's the problem with that. Unless I win immunity, which is hilarious concept, me flipping to Christine and Sam is...unrealistic and way too risky. I'd have to convince Rhea to get rid of Jake. NOT to mention Jake made an f2 with me like yesterday and for me to betray it like that it's...um, stupid.
But hopefully I can actually have time to think about this and not be pressured by instant tribals and instant challenges (@ Kait). I'll have to think of either an amazing final tribal council speech, find a better path, or bite the bullet (or in this case the rock) and take a risk.
How in the name of Budda's ball sack am I still here??? Seriously how? I provoked Rhea on multiple occasions. My name has been written down at least twice and by my own alliance member at that. Oh yeah, Kevin's an asshole. Or Jakey. IDK I just know one of those jerks did it.
soooo omg? everything went exactly according to plan last night like im screaming? samuel voted for kendall and everyone was like wtf.. so LOL that was kinda funny tbh. im continuing to give kendall life in this game because i needed her to last this long so she's the next target and not meee. if she goes on an immunity run i will actually die though LMAO but even if she does do that then i'll make it to final 3 regardless. um but YEAH I WANTED MITCH GONE AND IT... JUST HAPPENED? literally did not think rhea would do it but she was just like "ok" lskad. and i obviously was telling christine what was going on and i told her to vote with mitch so me and christine don't look as close as we are. but she's my ride or die :') and it's going to stay that way. we have 2 idols and 2 tribal coucils left to use them. if kendall loses this immunity she will probably be gone 4-2. however if kendall wins immunity i don't know what i would want to happen. once kendall is gone i know i'll have kevin in my pocket and i feel like i have rhea and christine in my pocket too so??? i guess sam would leave?? idk bc he'd be so easy to beat in the end and will probably do whatever christine says. i feel like kendall wouldn't hate me if i voted her out just because i expanded her time in this game so much further than it would have been. she'll understand the move i hope. and i hope mitch understood my move. lydia going was honestly a blessing in disguise for me lol. but yeah i have my idol and if i can save that for final 5 i'll be golden. i just have to try hard in immunity because kendall can not win!!
i'm me knowing half of these other loved ones (drew, kiersten, jay, isaac) yet none of them chose me as their draft pick and instead I got Callie who I guess is iconic enough but still who??? are??? you??? Literally these loved ones can fight me. At least now I have someone who I can vent to about the game besides this empty void of a confessional box.
Honestly I literally just remembered idols are a thing. And if I try to get Jake out at final 5 with Rhea + the leftover person and he plays an idol??? Goodbye to my ass! But if I move at final 6 then it'd probably be me Rhea Christine Sam in which everyone would probably want Sam and idk if Rhea'd actually stick with me so it's risky. My best bet is that Christine doesn't win immunity and she goes, then I go and tell Rhea they're targeting her at the next vote which they likely will anyways.
*Moments Later*
Is Kendall trying to start a fucking fight??? Is she trying to make our alliance, which barely managed to get to the final 6, collapse??? She came to me today and was like "I have a theory on who voted me at the Lydia tribal" and I'm wondering who and she's like "you were trying to save yourself!!!!" Literally what is she smoking.
Okay. I think she thinks it's not me. Which it isn't, so good. Because if she got me voted out over this I would be so mad. I was kinda hoping this would lead to some plot against Jake but unfortunately my fantasy has been crushed. But paranoia-fuelled Kendall won't be my downfall, at least. Might be Sam's depending on whatever other reasons she can come up with.
Ok so I have no idea if I already made a confessional about this or not but here we go...I FOUND AN IDOL. JAKE HAS AN IDOL. I'm basically on cloud nine. We're at final 6 and I don't think we're using them...Hopefully that doesn't backfire cause I know Kendall and Kevin might be voting for me. Whew this is stressful. Me and Jake are like the ultimate duo at this point like we're playing both sides perfectly and I love it. I also wanna thank Mitch for giving me the clue to find the idol, sorry I couldn't tell you about it. :(
Hopefully tonight works out, and I can protect myself at F5 with the idol and work things out from there!
hi tribal is any minute now and rhea probably isn't voting christine and jake probably voted kendall because why not abandon this alliance after taking it all the way!!!!
*Moments Later*
Jake comes running up to me right before he votes out Kendall just to make sure he's in my good graces (you're not now, and you probably weren't going to anyways!) But guess who's officially alone on this tribe!!!! With a flipper who's basically considered an angel, a rock out (who's also a flipper), another flipper who's been responsible for almost every flip excluding the ones on NuBarrie, a goat, and a person who accidentally flipped at the merge tribal AND has attended tribal every night (me!). At the very least, if I somehow do make it to the final tribal, I can get Kendall's vote? And Chris'? Maybe at this point, Jake has stabbed too many backs to get any votes because he for sure doesn't have mine.
But anyways I'm just gonna pretend I'm not screaming inside and instead I'll make Jake think he somehow has my loyalty and trust. But final 5 is the time to act, so hopefully these people can realize who's been making all of the moves. But really I don't care about winning I just want Jake out :) :) :) But yeah until someone gets off their ass Jake and I are bff's!!!!!!!! Totally!!!! (I mean he's not getting my vote but totally whatever gets me far!!!!)
*Moments Later*
Shoutout to me, the robbed finale queen who just misses final tribal council. Except I'm not the type of queen that could actually win but I'm just not a backstabbing asshole who doesn't have feelings :)
*Moments Later*
G2G2G2G2GG2G2G2G2GG2G2G2G2GG2G2G2G2GG2G2G2G2GG2G2G2G2G
JAKE BASICALLY JUST IMPLIED HE HAS AN IDOL OR SOMETHING BECAUSE HE SAID ONE OF US NEEDS TO WIN IMMUNITY???? AND THEN I ASKED HIM WHY WE NEEDED THAT AND HE JUST SENT AN EMOJI ABORT ANY BLINDSIDE PLAN BECAUSE JAKE HAD TO RUIN IT HE CAN GO AT F4 AND BECOME THE ROBBED QUEEN I DONT CARE!
I mean it's frankly hilarious that Jake thinks I can actually win an immunity challenge. Buuut if he actually does have an idol and isn't just being a tease then next tribal will be...I don't know, interesting. Because throughout most of the merge I've been at Jake's side and he's been the face of all the big moves. So it really depends on how the jury is feeling. Are Junior, Mitch, Kendall, and Jordan and whoever else Jake has backstabbed bitter towards him, are would they award good gameplay and ignore the social aspect? I can't read minds and once I do learn their true feelings at final tribal it's too late to change anything, so I would rather take a gamble and get rid of Jake (something I've been saying forever by now!) but I need an opportunity to actually get rid of Jake.
Episode 12 Confessionals
shoutout to christine for disappointing us. shoutout to jake being fake as hell. shoutout to the one good person now gone from the game, chris. Jake says Kendall might go next since she's a jury threat while I guess I'm a fucking goat and after Kendall goes the moves will be made because Rhea is on the bottom but I mean you decided to flip there! Honestly I'm so tired of this game I'm just waiting for my inevitable boot. I have no idea how Kendall or I can save ourselves. I'm just mad at Jake. he comes to me after the vote saying "omg let's make a f2!!!" literally after voting out the person I would've taken to f2. And Chris talked about how we can't keep flip floppers before he was booted, when literally Christine, Jake, Rhea, Lydia, and me have all flipped at one point...so it's a bit too late!
also this challenge sucks??? like brantsteele sims all suck but bvw??? with redemption island??? ugly as hell, just like this game. jimmy flynn, give me strength through your winner's blessing please.
*Moments Later*
Okay. I'm flopping at this challenge and I don't have the patience to refresh or whatever until I get a good one. So I'm hoping no one else chooses the Maze of Regrets. I'm 99% sure that's how Zach got his Ruby Idol, so hopefully if I can get my hands on it I can send Kendall there and she just might be able to get an idol.
OKAY JUST To quickly recap umm me and christine were the swing votes *again* and we chose to get rid of chris over rhea because shit would have blown up in our faces so badly and it wouldn't have been cute. it's great because perception is KEY in this game and people need to keep thinking that KENDALL is the jury threat and LYDIA is the strategic threat and MITCH is the physical threat. so all eyes off of me and christine and on to other people. okay and after chris left kendall tried to throw me under the bus to lydia and i had to do MAJOR damage control with lydia. i was telling her everything she wanted to hear from 'i was making sure the votes werent on you in case of an idol" to "everything i did was for YOU!!" hahaha in reality everything i do is for me and christine... SPEAKING OF MISS SUGAR AND SPICE WE GOT A SECOND IDOL OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG NOW ME AND CHRISTINE BOTH HAVE AN IDOL IM YELLINGGG we're in the most powerful positions in the game and i dont see how we CAN'T MAKE FINAL 4 at this point. i need christine to talk to mitch and sam about a final 4 deal because we can beat them and it's final 8. having a strong group of 4 is important. im going to continue to make lydia think that she's my ride or die and same with rhea and kevin. kevin i actually do want to take pretty far just because i feel like i have some sort of control over him and people don't perceive him as a player. but yeah i got an advantage in the immunity challenge so if i win my second immunity challenge i will SCREAM but also im thinking do i really want the target on my back? i can always say i only won touchy subjects and the second one bc im the only one who submitted for the time advantage. idk but im loving me and christine we're the most iconic duo ever. sugar & spice<3
I'm Jake winning three challenges in a row. If he keeps it up maybe we'll actually find a idol for our side. At the very least, this keeps the target off of me. I feel like I'm the bland middle person who doesn't win immunities (both Kendall and Jake have) and isn't considered a social threat (Kendall is, apparently) and hasn't made any moves (yet).
But it seems like none of us three will be going home! Lydia is busy and is requesting to be voted off and no offense Lydia but this is literally the best thing I've ever heard. Hopefully her side won't try to pull some shit and hopefully she is telling the truth, since she is in the majority and for no reason needs any votes on her.
So there's no need to stress about this vote (hopefully), but we need to plan for the next vote. It's the final 7, and once again one vote could change the game. We're either targeting Christine or Rhea as the swing vote, and possibly voting Mitch or Rhea. We can tell Rhea about the Mitch-Lydia-Junior-Sam alliance, and how Mitch/Sam will get the other's votes. And maybe we can also pull something out of our asses and say Christine joined them and now Rhea's a solid fourth. Plus Christine was the one to suggest Rhea last night only to ditch her; and if she's willing to consider voting Rhea then she should be too dangerous for Rhea to keep around. And Christine got all the positive touchy subjects answers so that's a bunch of jury votes for her. So if we can't get Rhea to flip on Christine, we're also considering getting Christine to flip... And apparently we're gonna do that by using psychology according to Kendall who I guess has a PhD? Basically we're gonna say "everyone is disappointed you in" because we're assuming Christine is a bundle of insecurities; plus you're not gonna get jury votes from the people disappointed in you! But honestly I'd rather get Rhea to flip because I feel like an alliance/voting bloc of Christine, Kendall, and Jake is too many threats for me to handle. Jake was responsible for the big flip, has won three challenges and most likely more to come. Christine is well liked despite her flips. And Kendall is a very perceptive player who's already won once and is good at swaying a jury, I don't know if I could stay put like this. But that's another day's problem. And plus, every time I think about flipping on an alliance, that alliance gets quickly dismantled. So hopefully we can like, NOT do that for the umpteenth time.
Well, now I'm going to have to try and win the season because the one person who I was okay losing to just quit. Fuck you Lydia, I hope the camping hangover hurts like hell. (kidding love you)
soooooooo lydia is quitting the game... okayyy that's fine with me tbh. now i dont have to betray her and she'll be campaigning for me in jury like she told me ;sfdlk. also it kinda sucks bc i won my second immunity for nothing basically. but whatever. im gonna keep trying as hard as i can especially in this next immunity because MITCH cannot win. a bunch of shit went down LMAO basically christine tells me everything mitch and sam say to when i accidently told lydia that sam thinks that she has an idol or something fishy LYDIA WENT UP TO SAM AND CONFRONTED HIM. like god i thought lydia was done playing but NOOO shes tryna fuck up my game!!! i dont even think she realized she did it but now CHRISTINE IS CAUGHT ;SKLJFD so.. i mean this kinda helps my game because i was like "well not mitch has to go next" to christine and she was like "YEAH I AGREE" Eaksldk;j SOOOOO IT WORKED OUT BC I DIDNT KNOW IF SHE WOULD VOTE FOR HIM. the next vote should be 5-2 for mitch if everything goes to plan. still gotta talk to rhea but i think if i make a final 3 with her and christine she should feel safe. ummm yeah me and christine have 2 idols to use at the next 3 tribals so we have a lot of room. i figure we will be targetted at final 5 no matter who is there so it'd be ideal if we can save those idols for then, but if we have to use them before then i guess so. although we really shouldn't? mitch should get 7th and everyone should WANT to get rid of kendall bc shes the biggest jury threat and it's obvious. i dont think kevin would vote her out but everyone else will at that point. then me and christine are in final 5 with an idol each and we make final 4 and battle it out from there in final immunity/tiebreaker. i dont wanna betray christine because i feel like i did play a better game than her. like i will probably lose a few jury votes if i take her but oh well. i should remain loyal to at least one person this season. god this confessional is so long yall are prob so bored w/ me smh!
*Moments Later*
ALSO what would be ideal is if kendall wins this next immunity ;afdslkj pray 4 her
So Lydia decided to ask to be voted out and I sort of hate that. 1) Is she being serious? 2) If she is being serious, I'm losing my number 1 and that worries me so much. I honestly hate this. My allies are dropping like flies.... and I feel more alone than ever. I don't know what to think at this point. Do I even have allies? I'm starting to think that I might not.
I have no idea what's going to happen at all right now, but we'll see what happens. I would love to make it farther, but if not, I think I've made the most of my second chance. I think I've been out in the open, and I still got votes last tribal, and I'm not sure if the Kendall and Kevin crew will like respect Lydia's wishes. I don't know what's going to happen. The good thing is, in the event that Lydia goes, Christine, myself and Jake technically control the vote, and hopefully I'll have some pull over Mitch.
If I make it past this tribal, I need to emerge, more than I have, and just take the game by storm, it's time for Reckless Rhea to be let loose.
okaay so the plan (?) is to vote out mitch. maybe. Honestly, I wanted to vote out Sam because he's not online and I think it'd be pretty funny if he got out because of a self vote. But no we need to rely on Rhea. I swear to god if this plan doesn't work/Rhea doesn't flip I'm gonna be mad at her AND Jake because he was the one who insisted on this plan. But it seems Kendall is the target so hopefully it's not me!!! And at least I might be the last standing member of this alliance if she goes since Jake has won a thousand challenges already.
Did that just actually happen? Did two people leave in one night? Did I actually come second in an immunity challenge? Did I escape BOTH tribals without a single vote? Did I flip and vote out Mitch? Are Jake and I the #best two people left here?
YES!!!
Honestly, this night was wild, and I'm glad I'm playing the way I am. It's fun to flip around, have fun, have no real solid ally but I'm making it work. I think it'll he easier now that Lydia is gone. Jake seems to be a little more balsy than Lydia, and is more wiling to take some risks and I love him for that. Hopefully things go well for me from this point forward. I need to make it farther ahead and I'm excited for this journey!!
Episode 11 Confessionals
lmfaooOOAOOAOMLMAOOOOOOOOOOO RHEA IS DRAGGING ME TO FILTH WHEEEEWWWWWWWWWWW and lydia was like "i wanted this to happen this is good..." LIKE RLY.... OKAY??LMFAO I THINK lydia is acting a lot more calm than she is. and maybe she does trust me a lot still? i mean i told her i wanted to make the move i just didnt include her in it so i didnt leave her completely in the dark. um but yeah rhea FLIPPED SHIT on me saying that shes sick of people thinking she doesnt have a brain?? LIKE RHEA ITS NOT PERSONAL STOP. she literally told me something today where i was like ok... now i cant tell rhea cause she'll tell junior or lydia or something AND I JUST WANTED MY PLAN TO WORK KEH??? but i think i can get rhea's trust back and same with lydia. christine is doing damage control with mitch and sam and christine and i have the votes of kendall chris and kevin now so i mean ???? i think we're looking pretty good even though we kinda made ourselves a bit of a target. but HONEY we have an idol :) and i told christine about it yesterday and she flipped out and i was like omfg YAS i trust christine so much shes my ride or die in this game and i'd honestly use the idol on her if i needed to. even though she flipped with me i feel like i'm gonna take the blame for it cause she's just so sweet and no one hates her but whatever. SUGAR AND SPICE ARE KILLIN IT
Ohhh man we really did that huh! I literally can't believe that happened. Like apparently the other, uglier side's plan was to vote off Chris instead of me which I'm perfectly fine with (no offense Chris <3).Christine was one of the votes for me so it should have been 2 votes me and 3 votes Chris except some bitch decided to vote me??? Like maybe you shouldn't do that. And now we have at least four people, and hopefully Christine can be our fifth. I'll convince if I have to but I'd rather Jake or Chris or Kendall or literally anyone who isn't me to do that since they know her better since they've played the game with her longer... I mean I believe I could do it but it'd be an easier route. I doubt they would accept the flippers and if they did Christine and Jake would be on the bottom and if those two did flip who would get my jury vote? Not them at the very least.
The aftermath of the vote has been...well probably not too bad. Rhea is mad at me because I didn't tell her about the Junior vote. You know, just like how Rhea didn't tell me that people were voting for me either. Like I was looking forward to working with Rhea/pretending to want to work with Lydia (who was visibly upset in tribal chat :~) ), until both of them knew my name was gonna be there last night...and where were they? Nowhere in sight. And Rhea literally told me like two hours before tribal when I knew they had already decided on a split vote and was like "Omg I have no idea what's happening!!!" ...girl okay. And then today she's like "You told me I was the only who you trusted!!!" which is true... Because I really thought everyone was against me. But maybe my trust in you fell when you decided not to tell me what was up last night??? Just maybe. I still love Rhea but jeez, I can't tell her everything.
Soo as of now my biggest concern is getting Christine on our side which hopefully shouldn't be a problem?? But I never want to sound too sure because who wants to sound like a cocky asshat right before they get booted so :/
*Moments Later*
oh boy touchy subjects this is my first time playing this challenge and i cannot wait for my entire tribe to turn on me because of this. my top priority is to not offend christine because she's the person we need. idk what the other side is doing, hopefully they don't figure out she's the swing vote (although she'll probably run over to them during tribal). I know Chris has talked to her, I don't know how it went and idk what Kendall's done. I'll probably talk to her more today but I want her to trust me so I'll probably just avoid that subject so I won't be a pest???
I haven't confessed anything in a long ass time. Since Junior left, and that was a bummer. But...it was also really revealing? I know that Jake and Christine are a pair, which I already sort of knew, but this confirms it. I know that Christine handles Mitch and Sam for them. Honestly, those two probably have two final four alliances and idk where I fall in that?
Anyways, touchy subjects. Holy shit. I didn't know these people disliked me that much. It wouldn't bother me, I've gotten answers like that before, except that I got outta my way to be nice to some of these kids. No respect.
Just such a pet peeve of mine when my alliance is all 'I only said it because I knew the minority hated you' Cause the minority cannot make up the majority of the votes, hoe. That's what 80% of this game is about, jeeeesus. I'm not really that mad though, I'm datable af so maybe my future bae is just waiting to get voted out by me next.
It's 3:30AM. Junior went home last round which is surprising, but eh whatever. I could never exactly find my footing with him as far as personal relations go, so he's a loss I can cut. Splitting votes never works on Tumblr Survivor and frankly I think we weren't bright in trying it. I wasn't going to spearhead the movement to place all the votes on Chris though. So far sitting back has gotten me farther than I've ever gotten, so I'm glad this is working. I came close to finding an idol, but someone has snatched it from me. I'm fairly certain it's Lydia, but I'm not going to bring it up to her. Her and I click well and I'd like to keep this relationship going for as long as I can. I know Lydia's very suspicious of everyone around her, but I'm giving her good reason to trust me. Touchy Subjects was very fun. Of course I'm saying that because I got nice answers. Most honest, funniest, most likely to be on the real show, and host's pet. Which is to be expected since Kendall and I are in Mayo with Kait and Jenn. I hope this doesn't paint a hero's picture of me, and I hope this doesn't put a target on my back for being likable. Interesting guesses from other people where my name was thrown around. Touchy Subjects brings out the worst in people; I know my guard is up for this vote. Of course I'm going to be as casual as possible about it... that 6-member alliance chat is void with Jake in it. Jake won immunity. I'm very skeptical of where his loyalties are after voting out Junior, and I can't imagine he's letting the game float by him. I don't ever speak with him, which will bite me in the ass later. The longer I let problems like that fester the more it'll hurt me. But I continue to sit back and let my non-existent relationships work out. Speaking of non-existant relationships, I may have let bridges rot with Chris, Kendall, and Kevin. I like them all, but I can't work up the nerve to speak with them lest it seem like I'm trying to make moves or garner jury favor. Maybe with me being voted most honest they'll take my word at face value. Of course I'm not going to lie to them, but I'll work around my honesty as best I can. Christine and Samuel continue to be my best allies, but I'm worried about Samuel putting me on a pedestal. I feel like the figurehead in our alliance, which will fuck me up if we're found out. I don't think anyone sees the three of us as tight, but then again I have the social awareness of a cucumber. I'm just hoping the three of us can fly under the radar until it's too late. Lydia and Rhea continue to be assets to me. I have no reason to vote them or create distrust. Lord knows what I'll do if the final 5 ends up being us though. My hope is to get rid of Chris tonight. I want to keep Kendall around, but if people are throwing her name out I won't spearhead the movement to take it out of people's mouths. Jury management is poor on my behalf. Hell if I know if Alex or Jordan even like me. I can at least tell Junior I didn't vote against him. I know Austin likes me, so there's that. I'm not confident I'll make it to the end. I'm going to continue to sit and let things come to me. It's not broken, I won't fix it. I'm proud of me for not stirring the pot. It fucked me in Sri Lanka and it won't fuck me again without dinner first.
I need to at least clear up some doubt with Jake. I don't know what he wants. I was close to winning immunity myself, but I hope people don't see me as a challenge threat. I need to lay low in that aspect next time. How to Succeed in Tumblr Survivor: 1. Lay low. 2. Lay even lower. 3. Play up the fact that you're laying low so you think you're a strategic genius. 4. ????? 5. Win.
DID I MENTION MERMAID LAGOON IS MISSING??? FUCK KAIT/JENN I NEED THAT BACK, THANKS. Also we're Cambodia, ten person jury. How iconic. This is just thought vomit by this point. Fuck I hate this. If actual Survivor is like this I'm never applying. I hate forgetting to talk to people... and then coming back is weird because it's like "HEY FUCKER I NEED YOU FOR SOMETHING" which is a big red flag. I have the day off tomorrow. I'll see if I can't talk to folks... Not even about the game. I like getting to know these people. Putting down their names for negative answers for this challenge spiritually hurt me. Lydia seemed really hurt by the answers she received, and I would be too. I even put her name down for some bad things... I feel guilty but I can't expose that to her. Being voted most likely to go on Survivor really inspires me. I should get my life together so I can do that. I bought Fire Emblem Fates last week. I'm paying attention to it way more than I am this game or my finals, and yet I'm still rocking both things. A metaphor for my life. It's 4AM.
Jake & his fake, flipping ass: lol I'm gonna flop at touchy subjects!!! also jake: wins????
Also breaking news Lydia thinks I'm the devil or something. She called me a goat even though Samuel is still in this tribe (I mean I sometimes forget he's in the game lmao), says I don't deserve to be here (who's been to tribal every night? this bitch), and said I'm most likely to flip. Okay...maybe that's true because I flipped once but I flipped on Jordan Pines. who wouldn't do that. Also who the fuck said I'm playing for second place? I'll admit I've been messy at some times but still whoever you people are you're wrong.
Soo idk what's gonna happen tonight. Our fate appears to be in the hands of Christine tonight so she better log on. Our alliance literally just started talking and the only suggestion has been Mitch (from me), because he's kinda sorta good at flash games and most of the challenges this season are flash games for some reason. But the target may change, it depends on whether or not Christine is comofortable with Mitch going; I'll be honest, I'm fine with any of those four going. Jake is apparently high or something because he wants to get Lydia and Rhea to flip to us. They're saying they're on the bottom of their alliance and that is absolutely shocking who would've seen that coming :o Tonight doesn't seem as stressful as it was last tribal but you never wanna get too comfortable y'know because just when the game swings your way it takes one vote (and it does tonight) to make your plan fall apart.
*Moments Later*
bye i fucked up i probably scared christine or something and now i'm going home because of my messy game!!! it was a blast
*Moments Later*
false alarm it's just my ass being paranoid because Christine's eating dinner whoops!!! She told me she might vote Kendall because they haven't talked (I probably should have told Kendall to talk to her when I told Chris but I was still mad oops) which is probably the worst reason to vote someone out at this stage??? Like why vote out the person who's supposedly a social flop. That's what I told her. Jake is trying to work his magic for a second round and flip Christine again but honestly I don't know if it'll work unless he comes up with some lie or something...but if Christine really doesn't go with us...we're on the bottom once more :/
*Moments Later*
god what is even happening we're making decisions at the eleventh hour literally kill me at once
soo the plan was for mitch which was quickly dissolved and then i wanted lydia but kendall was like no she's a meat shield and then we targetted rhea and i got paranoid because jake wasn't talking and we needed christine and then i was probably messy again by telling christine to not kendall because i'd rather keep her for now??? (if kendall drags me to f3 and beats me delete this confessional okay) so then jake's like vote rhea at 9:30 or something and rhea is STILL complaining about not being told about the junior plan (it's called a blindside for a reason!!! <3 ya tho) and now my heart has SHATTERED into pieces as I've been forced to vote out my former favorite person on Barrie. Rip the queen of rocks, but hopefully Christine stays true to the plan.
Episode 10 Confessionals
It's 2:30AM and I'm writing you a confessional you're welcome Kait/Jenn
So right now I'm trying to align with two people that are busy fighting each other. Lydia and Kendall. Lydia saved my ass twice, we mesh really well together, and I know she can be a very dangerous social player. Kendall and I click really well and she seems adamant on being a duo with me so we can flip and flop between alliances to get to the end. I like both of them as people a lot. As players, they scare me and I don't know exactly who or how to cut one of them first. So we just voted off Alex 7-4. Kendall wanted me to vote Kevin because she thought it would tie and be 5-5-1. I guess Kendall doesn't really know that Rhea isn't with them and probably doesn't plan on voting with them? I told her before that Lydia and Rhea seem like a power duo but I guess she forgot. So I stuck with voting Alex because the plan was a bust without Rhea voting for Lydia, and people would freak out over the one random vote for Kevin. Which I would probably end up owning and have my DEVIOUS NATURE REVEALED which we do not want. Kendall seems to be in a dark place right now, thinking it's the end of the line for her, Kevin, and Chris. I would probably be in the same mood. But the game changes, and I bet someone's willing to snatch them up. I don't know if voting with them now is a good idea, but maybe once it's down to Kendall and Chris/Kevin I can convince Christine and Samuel to vote with me to get out Lydia. It would be a shocking 5-4. I don't know if I want to involve Junior and Jake in the plan, and Rhea would NOT be down for voting Lydia... and neither would Lydia. But Christine and Samuel are my top two, and they have their trust in me (I hope) since I gave them my idol clue. Why am I thinking so hard about this? I told myself I'd lay low and let things happen. Things are so quiet in this game all it really takes is an affirmative voice to get everyone on board. Which is far different from Sri Lanka. I wanted to keep Kendall's name out of people's mouths, so I spoke up and said Kevin, which people didn't really buy. But I affirmatively said Alex and we voted out Alex. That might have been because I had immunity? I like to think I'm in good standing with quite a few people. I don't talk to Jake, Kevin, Junior, or Chris very much. Christine and Samuel are both kinda MIA too even though they vote with me. I should really make an effort to talk to people more. Should I get to the end (FUCK I'M THINKING ABOUT THE END) I want to make sure I at least converse with people regularly? I'm just trying to be a nice person. Honestly I'm trying so hard not to do a lot. The moment I start trying shit is the moment I die. It happened in Sri Lanka, and it'll happen again. Do I want to win this reward and get an advantage? Yeah, duh. Do I want to be a victim of the reward curse? No Well I don't really care if I am, getting an idol would be nice. I'm gonna calm down now.
nothing matters anymore no trust me, the only people i've talked to are kendall because she yelled at me because i think i got exposed but i don't care enough to scroll up and jake who says he wants to be with me since we're the last nubarrie people remaining, but since he's voted against us for two tribals in a row i doubt that means anything. chris is probably following kendall, rhea didn't vote with us again, lydia obviously won't be with us and no on cares enough to see the threats within smee or the fact that they'll probably pick the other barries off. at this point i need a miracle (an immunity run or an idol), but i don't wanna fall to the dumb reward curse or whatever because if i do win reward they'll probably do it for the laughs because haha they're in the majority and i can't do anything. i feel like i have no options and at this point i'm just waiting to be unanimously voted out at final 10. it was nice playing this game but i've fallen apart, partly due to my own messy game. i don't know who i would vote for when i'm a juror, probably chris or rhea. the only smee i would consider is jake even though he's fake as hell voting out the people he's said he trusts the most. i don't care about mitch or sam or christine at this point so they need to pull some flashy shit. and honestly i wouldn't vote junior completely out of spite because it would be a boring win since he's been a threat since day one.
me yesterday:
me after i found myself in an alliance with lydia who gave me all the idol clues, rhea, and christine AND I FOUND A FUCKING IDOL:
I sort of have a bit of an issue. In most instances I'm not exactly... emotionally in tune. I can feel things, contrary to popular belief I am not a sociopath but I am about as emotionally mature as a 12 year old. I don't exactly understand people or myself, I sort of forget emotions matter and go off on strange tangents and talk about dead babies and do a bunch of other weird things.
I usually just don't care enough to be happy or sad. But when I do get upset, it is almost painful to watch. I end up in tears. I shut myself off. And I am just a wreck of a human being. I hate that side of me. That weakness. It usually only shows up when I am stressed, which is happening a lot lately.
I tried so hard to save Alex. And I failed miserably. I kept trying to get everyone to vote me out of the game but Junior was being a pussy about it and I had to stop halfway through. I tried to align with Mitchell but he was so damn stubborn to get out Alex nothing worked. I tried to get someone to throw their vote but it didn't fucking work. And Rhea betrayed us. Which reminds me, I did a lot of stupid things after the vote. I cried on call with Lydia of all people. Which was probably very awkward for her so I appreciate her going through it. I yelled at Rhea via text format and ended up trying to make her feel better. And I told Junior I should've quit. Dear lord I have issues. I don't like to think of myself as a sore loser. I am okay if I lost to the better player but the only good player on the other side is Lydia.
So I was beat by one good player and her goons. And now I'm in charge of a bunch of less organized goons. And we are slowly getting picked off one by one. :/ Also Kevin and Austin can go fuck themselves. Austin fucked over a bunch of people in a game he didn't even care about just so he could get medivaced. Kevin voted for Jordan because he found him irritating. Seriously wtf. Nobody but me talks strategy with Chris. So he is passive aggressive and confused as fuck.
I didn't even care about this game so why is this so bothersome? Why does it even matter to me? I am really this pathetic? Also I haven't slept, I need to win this challenge. I need immunity or some kind of leverage. I'm not even sad any more, I'm livid.
At this point, I'm just one little bad egg in a sea of even worse eggs.
Bye I THOUGHT I did well in the challenge because I spent like half an hour doing it but Kendall (and Mitch...and Jake...) did even better because they probably spent like an hour or something. So I guess it's time to say goodbye and write my final confessionals because I don't know how I can walk out tonight unscathed, eliminated or not. I've told people I'm not getting others' jury votes (Kendall and Lydia, probably), and while part of that is my fragile hopes that they'll see me as a goat to take to the finals so I can actually last in the game, I actually believe I've lost everyone's jury votes. Like my merge game has been so messy and even if I can recover and put myself in a position I'll probably just end up as a follower and become a literal goat. Maybe the gods of Tumblr Survivor can come through for me just this once and make the reward curse become a real thing and Lydia can go home tonight.
The only people I've talked to are Rhea and Jake. If Kendall really wants me out which I suspect may happen, I'm gonna have to throw her under the bus. Well, not exactly, since y'know she has immunity. But I'm guessing her number two is Chris, and if you can't get Kendall out why not cut off her closest ally? I just have to bring this up to Jake and hopefully Jake the snake won't be so fucking sneaky and shady and actually vote with us when we ask him to. I don't know why I put my trust in Jake when he's done this, but then again I tried trusting Lydia last time and then she leaked all the info to Kendall who no longer trusts me, because she was mad that I was working with Lydia (false) at the Jordan vote, and then basically she said I should've written down Alex's name (???). Hopefully I can actually have a friend that won't kick my ass a second later (although to be fair I did vote Lydia last round...but now's not the time to admit I'm a messy hypocrite okay.) I think the only person I've trusted this entire game is Rhea so hopefully the rocks don't come for her again.
*Moments Later*
You know it's really funny when people refuse to have a social game at all in Survivor. I'm talking about Christine, Junior, Samuel, Mitch, the ugly Smee four (this also applied to Alex but he's gone rip I'm not talking shit about the dead). At least Jake pretends to be loyal to me. I hope those four people realize that this is a fucking social game and that, guess what, you need to be social to win! How are you going to get the jury votes from the people you never talked to??? Trick question, you're not, no matter what kind of strategical stuff you pull of and no matter how amazing your final tribal council speech and answers may be, you've completely abandoned a hugely important aspect of the game and no winner should do that.
Every time I've talked to the people on the other side (Jake and sorta Lydia/Rhea) it's basically "idk man what's going on" which feels like "I'm intentionally keeping you in the dark because it's like 3 people against a majority of 1000 and lol we don't want you here." If it is that way...well, I don't want NuBarrie to be completely dismantled so...keep me around and get rid of Chris. Who by the way said I'm one of the few people he talks to now besides Kendall (who's totally not mad at me or something)
Oh, Lydia. She talked to me. Shocking. We sorta made up after the whole last tribal thing I guess. I basically said it was Kendall and Chris and Alex's fault, basically everyone on the bottom who isn't me. I mean, literally no one else offered me a plan when I totally would have been fine with voting Alex. But hopefully she's staying real. I genuinely do want to work with her and Rhea and maybe Jake so keep me around so you won't go out the door after us.
These people want to do a split vote I am still traumatized from Sri Lanka if I go home because of this shit again I'm quitting forever
Either we are about to be fucked in the ass by a kid who can't spell his name or we our going to be saved. Halle-fucking-lujah.
Originally my plan was to wait for the next vote, win immunity and pretend to have a hidden immunity idol and have them fracture amongst themselves but this works just as well. Besides immunity idol plans historically never ever ever work. :/ But I have my doubt on trusting him. I mean, how do I know if this is a ploy for false hope because people do that.
... Okay that was a bit unfair but I'm still wary about this. I've been to the Lagoon, they could think I have an idol and do this just to get us off our game. Also just found out nobody trusts Lydia, so that was a minor victory for me.
Okay I think I'm obsessing over an enemy... this happens a lot. I need therapy or chocolate.
okay FUCK mr. nice guy i need to do something before fucking junior or mitch wins this game honestly. i have an idol for extra security and im trying to do SOMETHING. also if i make it to the end i'd have kendall/chris/kevin support which is huge and i think im good with everyone EXCEPT JUNIOR/MITCH/SAM. i dont fucking fit in with the smee boys and i never have in this game and i just dont want it in this game. i KNOW for a FACT thats girls alliance im in wont vote junior out when it comes to it and i'll be fucking screwed. IM TRYING TO GET THESE FUCKERS TO SPLIT so i can flip. or even BETTER get my alliance of me/rhea/christine/lydia to JUMP SHIP and still have majority wherever we go. im bORED shit needs to happen and i hate being a floater it's so boring idk how rhea does it
*Moments Later*
sooooo GOD wtf. lydia tells me that JUNIOR WANTS TO FLIP TO KENDALL AND CHRIS ;ASJFLKJ LIKEEEE......... OKAY?????? FUCK THAT. so i immediately tell rhea and christine LMAO. and btw i already got the 3 minority to vote for junior LMAO... bc i dnt think junior told kendall and chris about the alliance he was planning with lydia?? anyway... yeah i got christine to vote for junior ;ASLFKJ hopefully... this new alliance im calling sugar & spice with christine as the sugar and me as the spice? iconic. BUT IM FUCKING NERVOUS AS HELL BECAUSE I ASKED RHEA IF SHE WOULD VOTE FOR JUNIOR AND SHE IGNORED MEEEEE LMFAOOO SO I WAS LIKE "IM JUST SO PARANOID HELP" A;SLFDKJ;AKSLDJF GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! if RHEA FLIPPED WITH US TOO I WOUD FUCKING YELL. ALSO LYDIA IS IGNORING ME LIEK JFCCCCCCC SHES HORRIBLE TO TALK TO SHE JUST KEEPS IGNORING ME. why do i type in caps so much like im actually fucking crackedt. okay ummmm if my plan works and junior leaves this game will hit the fan LMAO i pray....
Ok, so first of all I'm sorry I haven't made any confessionals in awhile, my bad. Second of all, tonight should be super interesting because me, Jake and I think Rhea are apparently going to try and vote off Junior along with the Barrie's (minus Lydia). Junior supposedly wants to work with the Barrie's which makes me super nervous and we don't really talk too much so I feel like now is a better time to vote him out honestly.
As of right now, my closest ally would have to be Jake and I think I have a solid group with Mitch and Sam so hopefully I can maintain that after this tribal because they're pretty close with Junior. Then Lydia helped me out a little bit with the idol clues but there hasn't been much luck with that yet unfortunately.
So, yeah! That's pretty much it as of right now, I know I need to step up my game ALOT right now, so hopefully this move will help me out and I'll get on the right track of things. The one person I'm nervous about though is Kendall, like she seems really nice but I talked to her last vote and she got kinda mad at me for telling Lydia her plan to get rid of her...So that's a little nerve-wracking. Yikes. I just hope everything works out tonight but I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
Me? Having a chance of staying in the game? It's more likely than you think.
So I thought I was just gonna sit here hopeless with my biggest hope that Chris would go home tonight. But oh no, things can be much, much better. Jake, an iconic icon, is our saving grace tonight. Because he's sick of everyone liking Junior, wanting to take Junior to the final tribal, and everyone overall just sticking their heads up Junior's ass (believe me, I'm sick of it too; like not to kinkshame but it's Survivor), Jake is saving us. He managed to get the votes on his alliance of 100 split, so it's 4-3-3, with Chris or me going home; but hopefully they don't realize what we're up to. And apparently Christine is flipping because Junior made an alliance without her (and including Lydia??? the fuck), so we hopefully have 5 votes. Things have completely turned in our tide and this is the happiest I've been in the entire game.
I'm dying the Junior vote actually worked aND JAKE JUST TOLD ME HE FOUND THE IDOL. I'M SCREAMING. This is so flipping amazing. And the best part about this vote is that Lydia and Mitch aren't even mad at me like I love this so much it's not even funny. I forgot how much fun blindsiding people could be tbh??? Like I honestly can't right now. I know Rhea's upset and I do need to talk to her but I feel like I need to wait on it, when things have at least simmered down, I guess. I'm just in so much shock right now but I'm so happy. Like don't get me wrong, I love and adore Junior so much, but that move was so crucial for my game...I do feel really bad it's just...I don't know, it's complicated.
I'm just so happy Jake has the idol, like I actually couldn't be happier. I'm also still tight with my little trio of Mitch, Sam and I, and Lydia seems to be ok with everything so this is just so beautiful. <3
Episode 9 Confessionals
i'm fucking screaming at this tribal what the fuck just happened
Literally I threw my vote at Jordan, thinking it wouldn't affect anything and at the worst it would be like 8-5. Well, guess not, because everyone's fake as hell. I was fed up with Jordan and honestly if my vote had been the one to fuck things up it wouldn't have been too bad...but somehow this turned out okay for me? So, apparently, Lydia and Rhea both flipped--shocker! Who would have thought that Lydia of all people would flip on Jordan after she complained about Jordan as a person in general from the beginning of original Barrie. Truly a shocking move. Rhea was definitely more of a surprise. But definitely the funniest thing that's come out of this is Alex making a "people who DIDN'T vote Jordan" group chat and put me in it and I can't believe this. I'm guessing the fifth person to vote for Mitch must have been Jake, but I'm hoping they never consider me as a flipper. I'm planning on revealing this to Rhea and Lydia eventually (once they respond to my messages); and hopefully, the real people alliance will hate those two enough and I can maybe flip with them?? But that's very optimistic thinking, because things would need to go perfectly for that. Like literally last night I was planning Jordan's blindside only for...that to happen, so who knows. Maybe things will turn out to go my way somehow earlier than I wanted it.
Fuck me. Is this what games are like when you break everyone's trust?
Alex and Kendall are probably targeting the shit outta me.
Chris is obviously pisssssed and telling me off for 'using him'
I've got Austin AND Kevin claiming they were the extra vote for Jordan, so someone is trying to play me, but I genuinely cannot tell.
Christine and Same probably don't trust me nearly as much as I need them too.
Regardless I feel alive and am kind of loving this drama. People are taking this game so seriously, and I've just been here for a good time since day one. I think I found it tho, all these liars are giving me life.
I feel like threatening to boot someone just because they never send in confessionals is an abuse of power. But what do I know, I'm just a little egg.
Kait threatened to kick me if I don't write more confessionals so I bookmarked the page. But I don't really have much to confess right now.
I really like Patience. It's a fun game and I think I could sit here for hours trying to get a score higher than 15.
Alex winning reward in less than two hours is incredible.
I'm burning a candle rn (when am I not) the scent is Vanilla Lemon Drop and it's a cutie it smells like the dreams of children
For now I'm just going to think any happy little thought and hope I can fly through this game.
Okay but seriously, I was right. For once. Is this real life? I called Lydia to be a snake and I was right! So the question is how we proceed. Simple we get Lydia out.
She is a nice enough girl but she is a lose canon. Someone who would jump ship just because they can't get there way. I can deal with sore losers and biding my time seems like a really stupid idea. So I might as well cut the limb before the infection spreads but I'm not sure how to go about it.
I think I can coerse Mitch but it would be tricky considering how I wrote his name down last time. I'll have to rely on my charmisma and charm. So in other words in other words unless I get better at acting or get a personality transplant, we are probably fucked.
So why am I so excited about this?
I just beat Patience DeLuxe I am alive
Breaking news, this tribe is full of fakers and posers. I told Rhea about the whole Jordan fiasco, saying I voted him too and accidentally ended up in majority and I also told her about the people who didn't vote Jordan except not really because I did. Soo okay, it's going fine. Then, I tell Lydia later, and she reacts very, very coldly. She tells me Austin fucking voted Jordan and I'm like what the fuck, who voted Mitch then??? And apparently Jake voted out the person he told he trusted the most so like what the hell is happening?? And I wasn't gonna tell Lydia about the Jordan fan club chat unless she asked, except she did ask and now she seems kinda odd. And she basically said "you never talked to me post merge" which is true but am I gonna take the blame? No gross. But like I'm not gonna be pissed at her to her face.
But anyways it seems she wants Alex out since he apparently wanted her out last tribal (which is a good idea but also...wyd...), and probably also since he's a challenge threat who thinks he can pass by with the social game of a trash can. And since Austin apparently jumped ship my alliance from NuBarrie is basically dead. But like why would Austin vote Jordan??? He has said himself he's on the bottom so unless he's changed that wyd... Honestly I have no idea what's happening anymore I might as well sleep through the entire game...
*complains that Alex won reward in less than two hours* *gets the highest score possible in the immunity challenge in less than three hours*
*Is now the center of a power struggle between Kendall and Lydia* *Likes both of them and doesn't want to really vote either of them out but can't keep each others' names out of their mouths*
*Wins immunity* *would rather have a hidden immunity idol so I can at least accomplish one goal*
KENDALL KNOWS/THINKS I VOTED JORDAN DROP EVERYTHING ABORT THE FUCKING MISSION
Oh my god what is even happening. So the person who I was uncertain about and guess what, DID vote Jordan is med evac'd. And he's a Smee, so um...fantastic? Last night Kendall suggested voting out Lydia and I'm so down with that plan mostly because we HAD no plan. Like I suggest Sam/Christine but Lydia is not down for Barrie strong anymore, and that's the only path I'm comfortable with at this point. And Rhea is feeling uncomfortable because I guess everyone on Barrie has no social game and isn't talking to her (I shouldn't be talking because how many Smee members have I talked to since last tribal?) so we'll have two flippers oh yay. Oh, and what's even better is Mitch thinking Kendall wants to flip on me because of a fucking miscommunication. And so my ass will almost definitely get screwed.
If Lydia doesn't go tonight she's gonna be pissed and not work with us. Rhea will probably be mad for being left out but I don't know if she wants to vote Lydia and if I tell her and she tells Lydia that then both of them will be against us. At this point I don't care about setting myself apart from the people in control (Kendall). I can worry about that when I have the opportunity to make a wise flip, but all I'm focused on is making sure I'm still here tomorrow morning.
*Moments Later*
Kendall's trying to get herself voted out by making a speech in the tribe chat. I have no idea what Rhea is doing. Jake never responded because he's busy but I have a feeling he told Lydia. Lydia randomly messaged me and I think she's gonna call me the fuck out. Mitch and Junior both seem uncooperative. I hate this season, everything is hopeless, no one is willing to work together, I have no idea who's going home tonight but it's very likely that I'll wake up tomorrow in the viewing lounge. Chris and Kendall are the ones I wanna see make it far even if Kendall has already won, because at this point I don't care about threats because there's no other people I can comfortably go with. I hate to seem hopeless, but there's nothing I can grab onto that will give me hope. It was nice knowing you, Kirriemuir, for about a week, but thanks to some flopping flippers and bitchy snitches, you most likely won't see me here.
Ok so...I've got a feeling this is probably my last tribal. I knew I was in a bad spot at the beginning and made myself a easy target if original Barrie wanted to work for it, and I mostly hoping they wouldn't. They did.
Kendall is a bad liar, I mean...
[5/3/2016 10:27:33 PM] Kendall Duffy: They wanted to make sure [5/3/2016 10:27:51 PM] Kendall Duffy: So as the person who had faith in you. [5/3/2016 10:28:14 PM] Kendall Duffy: I am supposed to get a screenshot of you saying you'll work with us [5/3/2016 10:28:24 PM] Kendall Duffy: Don't tell them I told you. [5/3/2016 10:28:32 PM] Kendall Duffy: Please
No, dude no. But at the same time, jokes on me, because I like her so much that I still ended up saying some things I shouldn't have said.
Junior is a HORRIBLE liar. I really love this kid so this sucks, but I am feeling so used right now. I know he really wanted an alliance with Kendall and I wasn't against the idea, but obviously when she's not actively going against me. Which she is. So when he tells me he wants to call her and will tell me what's going on, and he tells me that they just 'talked about life' and that he doesn't remember what happened I'm clearly not fooled. Also having Rhea and Jake tell me that they were asked to vote me but Junior saying that's not happening at all, and just replying in key smashing. I- Junior.....buddy, I'm not this clueless.
At this point I'm not even questioning him to get the truth, it's just my own ego wanting to make it clear that I am NOT getting played by this grade F lying.
I think they also got Christine just by stirring up distrust but at least she has the decency to ask me about it. Junior doesn't. I'm actually really disappointed in how poorly this is being pulled off.
If this is all just paranoia this confessional is gonna be awkward as hell, but I'm actually pretty sure it's not. Either way this game was at least fun for the last two tribals, and I'm pretty ready for the Ponderosa experience.
*Moments Later*
Okay so I may have over reacted. Except about Kendall cause goddamn she was maaad. Or maybe just upset? You really have to appreciate the entertainment value of her though, I can't even be salty back I'm just...
Episode 8 Confessionals
So these next couple of days are crucial for me. I need to make sure that I set myself in and am solid. I need to make sure that I'm able to find the numbers and put myself in a spot in which I'm needed. Lydia still seems to want to work with me, which is awesome. Jake also seems really excited that I'm back. Kevin was also really happy to have me back again. The good thing is, is that Jake, Lydia and Kevin aren't working together, so it might help me out because if they're not sharing info with each other, I can gather intel from all three of them, and use it to my advantage. The downside is also that they aren't working together because it can lead to me having to spread myself too thinly.
Junior is in a panic and I wan to help him, but I don't know how to. I feel pretty helpless, but it's nice to know he trusts me enough to share this with me. He thinks he's gone if he doesn't win immunity, and that's worrying me. I like Junior, and I want to work with him. I don't want him going, not now anyway, because 1) he'll be a target longer, and 2)because I think he's the type of ally who can do wonders for you. I know how good of a player he is, and I love aligning myself with people who I feel are good at the game. He wants this immunity so badly, and I totally feel him on that. I know how badly I wanted to come back into this game, so I know how hard he must be trying right now. I want him to win this immunity challenge so we can pull off something big.
Lydia told me that Jordan is a potential target, and I'm thinking about how that could be a good thing. I'm thinking about in the long run, Jordan being a really big threat, and I can see how in this game, I feel like he'd be likely to turn on me. Jordan and I do separate games, and just because we're together in one game, doesn't mean we'll work together in another, so it's def something to watch out for. I'm down to vote out Jordan, even if Jake isn't for that. I think Jordan has a lot of control over people in this game. It's odd because Samuel said he voted for me, which seems like it's a lie, but if he did then someone is lying of the 9 I thought I had, and honestly, the most likely thing is that Jordan changed his mind and voted Stevie. I have no clue at this point.
I just really think that I need to make connections quickly, and situate myself in a good spot, in this game and hopefully be able to take it. We'll see there's still a lot of people left, but I'm excited to see how this goes for me. I really want to make it far, and I'm hoping that I can do something great in this game.
Alright, time to catch you peeps up.
I've been really busy with Rock Show at school, so talking is like, limited here with people. So like, I had no idea the Lost Boys was a thing. But the fact that Rhea came back was the greatest fucking thing in the world. Like, it's Rhea! The girl who got robbed and was my number one ally <3
Anyways, merge came and Kendall talked to me about the Zack vote when Rhea got rocked out. Apparently I was supposed to go home, or at least was very close to it. Lydia was apparently behind it, which makes things interesting as she told me Jordan Pines wanted me out. Rhea was apparently involved in it too, so if she was I'll be uber sad because Rhea </3
As of now, I won immunity! It was by two points, but that's honestly great. However I said I'd murder someone if the effort for my flag got less than 9 (looking at you Lauren with a 7, dafuq?). That flag was so fun to do.
Kendall wants Lydia out, and I'm a tad fine with that, especially if what she's saying is true. But I wouldn't mind getting out Junior while we can. He's a big threat for these challenges later and I can't have that.
Long, Big, Deep..... Sigh....
Junior didn't win immunity, like fuck.... and Alex decides to be like "Oh let's go for Junior," and it's like uhm no... let's NOT. The thing is this, I don't know how I can help him, like at all. What the hell am I going to say to these people to change their minds. I wasn't there, I feel like I have no say. I want to help him, but I don't know how. I'm excited to be back, but damn, this is going to be one long, uphill battle to say the very least.
not me being two points away from winning immunity! to be honest the whole flower thing was dumb the only important part about my flag was making junior's flower a rafflesia because, similar to junior, the rafflesia smells like shit. and junior ruined my life. this was supposed to be funny but basically junior sucks ruined my life and idk why the others are up his ass xoxo
aanyways um so the ugly other Barrie trio does NOT want Junior out. Shocker. Apparently he's only good at flash games according to Lydia. Thankfully I'm staying in my lane tonight and Alex suggested Junior. So I have no idea who Sam Mitch or Christine are, and frankly if I had to choose I'd get rid of Samuel because he lives in like, Europe, and he's always asleep during tribals (like same but he seems hard to work with.) Mitch is the most pleasant and probably the funniest of the three so idk, jury's coming whenever so that's threatening; it seems that he's gonna be the one to go. I have no idea who Christine is but her profile pic is pretty. Jake trusts Jordan the most apparently, so if we get rid of Jake that's just reason #712 to get rid of Jordan later in the game. Besides, I have no doubt I'm not the only final 2 deal he's made. And if he makes a bunch of "we tell each other everything" deals, well, that's too much power for one person. So I think I'll still stay loyal to him for now but he doesn't need to play my game for me.
soooooo i feel like my game went to 0 to 100 real quick in the last 24 hours. basically we have 2 sides of this whole game and on one side is jordan's army consisting of jordan pines, alex, chris, kendall, and kevin which will all do whatever jordan tells them to do basically. and then on the other side is basically the original smee and then lydia and rhea who want to flip on them and will basically do whatever junior wants them to do lmao. and then u have me and austin in the middle of everything. and kinda christine. even tho i know she wants to work with junior because he has her manipulated lmao. yeah junior has a lot of control over people and so does jordan so honestly i want those 2 out ASAP so i can actually like build relationships with people lmao. right now i think the vote will be 7-6 with jordan leaving. im voting for jordan to get info from smee's side and austin's voing mitch to get info from barrie's side. the tribe lines are cut in stone but you know what i mean lmao. yeah no way in hell do i wanna work with fucking junior mitch sam lydia and rhea moving forward honestly junior is like the glue to all of them and i just want him out so i can get christine, lydia and rhea to myself lmaooo. but yeah i guess we'll have to wait on that. if everything goes as planned jordan pines will be voted out on jordan pines day. the irony is great and it's honestly funny like c'mon. i do feel kinda bad because he thinks im with him?? but like hes obviously more loyal to his barrie goats than me because he was going to vote me out if we didnt merge lmaooo.
Happy Jordan Pines Day. Lydia is love and Lydia is life. I cannot believe she has saved my ass twice in this game I am so fucking grateful I'm willing to be put under her thumb for the rest of the game. I love Christine and Samuel and Junior and I don't want them to go anywhere. So I'm hoping to stick with Lydia and ride out the nice train as long as I can. Will I pull out the mean train? Probably not.
Jordan getting voted out on his special day was actually hilarious. But it left a sour taste in my mouth, like dark chocolate does.
We literally changed the vote from Junior TO Mitch, only for Lydia to not even vote out Mitch. She voted for Mr. Pines and to me she really can't be trusted. Her nor Rhea (though I still love her she's probably working against me at this point).
I also just won reward. Which means I get a clue. I already got one from Mr. Pines so this other one could be what I need to get what I need. I need the idol, I haven't had an actual idol to play in so long. Come to think of it... I don't remember having an idol ever in any of the games I've played. I'll have to check up on that. It'd be a nice first.
I think it's time I start talking to people and making connections. This is my last game before I go to Spain and I'll be damned if I don't make it count.
[11:34:38 PM] Austin Trevino: Yeah because they don't trust you or Rhea because they think you've been shady since the Zack vote [11:34:53 PM] Lydia: Who said this omg!! [11:35:05 PM] Lydia: Ahh I can't breathe I'm laughing so hard omg [11:35:09 PM] Austin Trevino: I just found out there was a ruby idol in the game today too and that that was how Rhea got out so I've learned a lot today [11:35:13 PM] Austin Trevino: Alex [11:35:24 PM] Austin Trevino: Alex and Jordan wanted to do a big move against you [11:35:49 PM] Austin Trevino: But they settled for Mitch because they thought they had more support for it [11:36:13 PM] Lydia: I- [11:36:20 PM] Lydia: Austin why are you telling me this? [11:38:17 PM] Austin Trevino: Honestly you can do as you please with this info. I'm telling you because that side is messy and a move happened that I told myself not to get involved in because it'd backfire overall and it's now getting messy. Personally for me I'm not the one scheming with all of this, but I hold a lot of info and I figured I should relay it to you so you're not blindsided in the event that I'm next tribals safe vote
And he sent me screen shots of Kendall and Alex talkin smack. Y'ALL THOT! I am so...I can't say I'm surprised because I know that I was NOT slick with the Zack situation or with Junior, and I'm not really mad. Except...a little at Kendall. Because my intentions here weren't go to against them, or because I dislike them. But knowing that she was coming for me because I'm "shady as fuck", and she was talking about getting rid of me so carelessly. Like I really respected the way she was protecting us before merge but I guess that's gone now. Also after the vote tonight she wanted to call me so I could apologize to her, and she could tell me everything is ok. But if she's behind by back saying things like that, then what is the point of that? If you wanna be against someone, be against them. I know that involves tricking them sometimes, but it just feels a little much that she wanted an apology and explanation from me.
It's a damn good thing I voted out Jordan now, the fuck. But also this isn't good. I mean long term I've made a few good allies but not enough that will be loyal enough to refuse to vote for me if they push hard enough. See the issue is that none of my allies really get along, so they all have different goals and it's hard to get everyone to line up.
I'm also unclear why Austin is telling me? I mean he explained but not very well. I asked later if it was to get my trust and he didn't answer. The hardest part of this for me is going to be trying to remember to NOT be vindictive, so matter how much it kills me that they think I don't know. I kinda said shit to Alex I shouldn't have said already, but I need to...relax.
I feel like I was partially behind two rather big moves in a row, and that I should go dead fish for awhile...
Episode 7 Confessionals (Part 2)
Okay so Samuel started talking to me. And basically i told him what i thought about the Junior/Lydia/Mitch alliance and he pretty much agreed that it is probably a thing. So I told Jordan to watch out for that if the 6 Old Barrie's talk strategy. Don't let Lydia in on too much info. I think I will bring this up to Kendall to see what she says. Maybe she will know something. Whether I get back into this or not I am making it my mission to tell Jordan as much info as I can, hopefully it shakes stuff up.
Soo this is messy. Emma got medevac'd, and honestly I wanted her gone so as nice as she seemed in the sparse conversations we had it's not too big of a loss. And now it's the merge and I'm actually really happy about this because it's my first merge so here's to me not flopping. Junior is way too much of a threat and he's likeable and I want to work with him and that's exactly why he needs to go. Mitch, idk what he's done but he seemed pretty funny. Christine is just...there, maybe she's done something but nothing of my concern. My least favorite thing in the game, besides Junior, is the fucking O*tcasts twist. Who approved this. Who thought of this. Punpun is really salty, but at least most of their salt is towards Alex. I tried apologizing and they called me a cheeseface bitch.
Buuut things aren't great towards us. Barrie has 6 people remaining. And in a group of 11 (and now 12 thanks to the horrible twist), that's majority. So things should be good, right? Well...I don't know about that. I talked to Chris, Kendall, and Lydia, and all my conversations with them were brief. All I got out of them was that Junior flipped which is like one of the worst things that could happen. And now I'm worried that they've promised something to Junior, like say, loyalty to him and only him. Stevie said to Jordan, which Jordan told to me, that Junior was comfortable on Smee, which is obvious because he was basically like a god. So it would take quite something to get him to flip on his old Smee members at that point, so maybe the other Barrie trio won't be with us. Aaand Austin has been wanting Junior out FOREVER so if Austin tries rallying against Junior he may fuck us over. Hopefully Jake is with us, and if he is that makes our target Sam, Christine, or Mitch. But we don't even know if we have majority so...who knows what'll happen.
Having been with Jordan throughout the whole game, and, y'know, actually talking to him unlike some people who I've been with who decide to be mute, he's my number one. Which is frankly hilarious because he's the person I've trusted the least and wanted out. So apparently, I have to tell him everything in my game and basically be an open book which is what I need probably but I don't want a visible duo/a shitty Romber. So despite my hesitations, Jordan Pines is who I need in this game. It's surprising that I'm saying this, but Jordan going home is the worst thing for my game at this point.
Okay for the first time ever I will take this confessional shit seriously. Because 1) A lot of shit has went down and 2) An Episode Title would be awesome. So the powers that be deemed an outcast twist is nesasary so Rhea, Stevie, Zack, Punpun, and Ricky are back and competing.
Fortunately I'm on good terms with all of them. Even Stevie. Somehow. Maybe he's trying to lull me into a false sense of security or maybe I'm just to cartoonish to get angry at. IDK. So the weak have been weeded out and now we have to vote between Punpun, Stevie, and Rhea. Stevie has no chance in hell. Seriously the people I've talked to are terrified of him. Rhea was universally beloved by our tribe and was unfairly booted, kind of like Michelle Yi but less gang banging.
So she has a good chance of returning. Punpun... IDK about Punpun. From what I can tell the opinion is more or less positive but they haven't said much or done anything. Each one of them have their benefits and costs
Rhea - Pros: Former Barrie member, deserves a second shot, Isn't a challenge threat - Cons: Not as close to her, Lydia can manipulate her
Punpun - Pros: Have a good repore, Isn't a challenge threat, Will be fun playing with - Cons: Former Schnee member, Emotionally driven
Stevie - Pros: It will be a really cool vengeance story line, I am always a slut for chaos - Cons: It would be survivor suicide to let someone so dangerous and angry back into the game
Also Lydia is sketchy as fuck. I probably should get rid of her. Like now. She seems to be chaotically inclined, which I relate to and respect, but I don't want to play a game with anyone similar to me. She is playing the middle right now, I can feel it. Of course, I would rather not take any unreasonable action without imperial evidence so I should bid my time.
Let's face it, when it comes to Survivor, I'm a mess, but this game was one where I really wanted to play a game that I could be proud of no matter the outcome. However, being rocked out so early, was hard to deal with. I want back in, and I tried so damn hard in that game to make sure it happened. I really, really want back in, and I don't know if it will happen, but I'm trying. There's no way I'm going out without trying.
I'm just here like:
So, of course, I made sure I spoke to people. So far, I've spoken to: Junior, Jake, Kevin, Jordan, Kendall, Chris, Mitch,Lydia and Christine. I'm still waiting for a reply from Alex, but I'm trying. I still need to talk to Austin and Samuel, and I think that's everyone?
So far, people who told me I have their votes:
-Chris -Kendall -Kevin -Lydia -Junior -Jake
This is 6 votes, this is majority. Of course, people might be lying to me, honestly lying to me about this vote makes no sense. It's not like, I'm back in if they don't vote for me, I have no intel on anything I was gone so early. I mean, some people can't be honest ever, so them lying is a total possibility. I'm going to hope that these people are all honest, and that I do have a chance at coming back into the game. So, I'm trying, I'm trying really hard.
Jordan told me he's between me and someone else, and I feel like that someone else is Stevie. I feel like Stevie coming back would suck, just because it would hurt Junior's game. I'm like super protective of Junior, I don't even know why, but I am... and like I want to come into this game, and try and align with him, maybe it'll be my demise, but I still want to try. Mitch says that the votes seem to be in my favour, considering how I was taken out of this game. So, hopefully Mitch is right.
I want back in, so badly, I am craving to come back into this game, and I'm working my little butt off!
At this point I'm pretty sure I've spent every moment of the game hating whatever alliance I'm in. Like the one on original Barrie was boring, nuBarrie was okay until Austin decided to be a meanie and vote out Punpun. And seconds after putting my full trust in Jordan I'm done with his shit. He wants to take in Stevie??? Lydia and others want Rhea who I also want and so does Alex. Lydia is the person I've wanted to work with from the beginning but thanks to people sucking at life I've always been on the wrong side. Fortunately, Barrie's finally been able to unite--or at least it seems like it--and Jordan agreed to vote Rhea...but I still don't know what's happening.
So this battle to get people to vote me in is difficult. I decided to go big and publicly announce in the tribe chat why I think Rhea should not be voted back in. I still stand by it. She was rocked out by the ruby idol, she was robbed in this game. This makes her the obvious choice to vote back in to get a real chance at playing. With that being said, it is the people playing against her that would be voting her back in. They would take Rhea as a serious player and truly give her another shot and it would be beautiful to see them vote in their demise. As for myself, I have made myself someone no one wants around really (or at least a number of people). And that is the perfect thing to bring back into the game because I will be an expendable number to whoever gets to me first, and at this point it is Jordan and Kendall. I truly would work with anyone going back into this but I think people don't trust me at all so they don't wanna give me the chance and to that all i can think is, if I do rally people to get me back in and you didn't think it was gonna happen, do you think I actually will want to work with you then? (side-eyes Lydia) Which reminds me!! Update on Lydia is a fake #CONFIRMED: Last night I messaged Lydia about this vote and asked about my chances and her response is this
[12:21:08 AM] Lydia: It's not high. I won't lie to you [12:21:18 AM] Lydia: I'm sorta bummed btw. I feel like we could be a sick team
so I read this and think, okay so you don't want to vote me back in but you are upset about it because we would be a good team to work together.....? You don't have to be upset about it! Vote me back in!! Then later today i was talking to her and she said that my gameplay is just not meshing with her gameplay for this game. So that sounds more reasonable and less #fake but I am in no way happy about it. Just gotta round up votes elsewhere, she is just one person. My side strategy has also been to see if people would throw their votes at Punpun (like Kevin or Mitch) so they don't have to decide between me and Rhea, who everyone seems to be contemplating between. So in my view a vote for Punpun is not a vote for Rhea, and if there are two votes for Punpun then that would make only 5 votes majority instead of 7. So I just need to solidify 5 votes. 6 would be the ideal number but I will take what I can get. This has been such a fun experience fighting my way to be voted back in and I am really shocked that telling everyone to vote me back in just so they can vote me back out first chance didn't work........but I guess it is obvious that I can work my way past a few rounds if I come back :~)
Jordan: hey vote Stevie okay? Me, having voted for Rhea like 4 hours before the deadline: *sweats, deletes Skype, all my social media, doesn't have any human interaction, is that one gif of a lady in a wheelchair trying to hide herself with her hat*
This literally isn't even an actual tribal and it's a fucking mess. Thank God I didn't actually have to like, betray Jordan or whatever because I didn't want Stevie. Stevie was pulling out the tea right before tribal saying Rhea's gonna win. And like, there were things to consider. Stevie was willing to vote Junior, but who knows where his loyalties would be after the Junior vote out. Rhea, on the other hand, having only been with Barrie, would certainly go Barrie strong. Buuut, when you take in someone who's rocked out it's harder to argue against them instead of someone actually voted out (ex: Stevie). But I, and Barrie and like Austin I think, voted Rhea.
So now, with an alliance of 7 or so, along with my fake alliance with Austin, I should be in a good position. Good enough that I don't care to try hard in this ugly flag challenge to the point where I feel like writing whatever our tribe name is on a piece of paper in crayon because creative challenges suck (remember when we lost by 1 point because of a dumb reward? I do.) Hopefully no one targets me when I'm surrounded by more obvious threats.
One thing that bothered me a little was Jordan. Not just him as a person, but this: he went to me and said Lydia was a little shady. Aaand technically he's right and she also doesn't like her and I think she's hosting a season with Teddy? It's a concept. Anyways, um, she didn't like him on Barrie. Kendall also agreed with the whole Lydia being shady thing. But when it comes down to it, I don't wanna go with Kendall and Jordan and co because I don't think I can beat them. I'd rather take Alex, Lydia, and whoever's left over. If I last long enough I need to tell them they're on the bottom; and ever since original Barrie, Lydia's been feeling that. But now's the worst time to do that. A Smee should go home next unless someone (Austin probably since he has the damn clue) pulls out an idol and makes me cry.
Also Smee being divided is fucking hilarious and I want to thank Stevie for that. Jake hates Junior and Mitch apparently because they were basically the popular exclusive clique on Smee while Jake reminds me of the token gay who sits with the nice benevolent girls table at lunch (aka me), and who knows what other cracks are in there. Smee is one of the most dysfunctional, inept, uncooperative things I've seen, and those are all the things I need.
firstly sorry for like not doing confessionals ive been 2 discouraged to write one but now im fired up! basically i called out smee's bullshit in the merged chat because honestly i dont intend on working with anyone on smee besides christine, my final 2. christine is honestly my ride or die and i want to help all the women get far because quite frankly they're the only people i like. oh also me and austin are really close now bc we bonded over our hate for smee. ummmm jordan is working with me but yeah i doubt he will last long LOL. honestly starting that fight in the tribe chat was just the tip of the iceburg of my plan. my plan to burn smee to the ground, that is. eventually jordan will want to make "big moves" because jordan is so great and loves doing things and barrie will start eating at each other and me and christine will find our way into the final 2 and it will be glorious. also i love rhea we went on call today thank god she's back in the game i def needed another barrie/number on my side.
Zack does nothing but let me down. AT LEASE I GOT RHEA BACK
But also Smee is a disaster omfg, I had NO Idea they hated each other that much. Honestly it's almost unfortunate because I still don't want to stick with Barrie all the way. But Junior clearly wants nothing to do with Smee, and neither does Jake I guess?
Guess who is BACK?!!
Zack?Nope. Ricky?Nope. Stevie?Nope. Punpun?Nope.
That only leaves one person.... who? Who is that one person? *whispers*.... is that person Rhea?!
YES! YES IT IS!!!
On the one hand, I'm completely shocked that I was actually voted in, but on the other hand, I sort of knew I would get back in. As much as I am clueless of the dynamics, I knew that Stevie wouldn't come back in the game honestly. I think Stevie was someone who liked drama a little too much, and i think the people who voted him out clearly didn't want Stevie back. I don't know what Punpun did, but clearly I was the best option.
Stevie tried to convince people that letting me back in was a mistake. On the one hand, I agree with him, but I was angry because he speaking based on pure assumptions and that drove me insane. I was angry that he tried to trash me, and worried that it was going to work.
I honestly am so excited to be back though. Being rocked out was the worst. I wans't rocke out because people wouldn't flip on a revote, it was because of a ruby idol, and that is what really pissed me off. It happens, but it was a tough pill to swallow, it really was. It was hard for me to accept it. Then I was told about the Lost Boys, and that was such a wonderful feeling. I didn't think I'd get back in, until I realized that the second part was a vote. I was so excited. I tried my hardest to campaign and get those votes.
I got 9 votes and here is who I think they came from
1. Jake 2.Lydia 3.Junior 4.Kevin 5. Chris 6. Kendall 7. Alex 8. Jordan 9. Christine
These were the votes that I think I was going to get. Knowing that I was voted in with a landslide makes me happy, but it also makes me a little nervous, because 9 people is a lot of people to "owe" in this game.
When I found out that I was exempt from this tribal, I was just like
but this is a perfect chance for me to get a feel for how things are. I need to be able to get a grasp on the dynamics if I want a shot at winning this game, or even making it close to the end. I'm here to play, and I was given a second chance and I can't let it go to waste.
Right now, I need people need to see me as
when in reality, I'm really here like
I'm here and I'm ready to get this game rolling!!!
Episode 7 Confessionals (Part 1)
Okay...so Punpun went home 6-1, so if it was a unanimous vote I guess it was a good choice...they messaged me after the vote saying I backstabbed them "again"... And I feel kinda bad but at least they're not jury! Idk what the backstabbing is unless it was Ricky; but like that was all Austin's doing, so if there's any bloodshed it's all because of him. I'm really glad the Barrie people survived their tribal, because now we're 7 including Austin as long as we stick together. Hopefully Lydia has stopped hating people (although she mostly hated Jordan! but tbh after working with him here, mostly because I had no other options lmao, I've grown to trust him more). But of course, any alliance that's that big is inevitably going to collapse, and hopefully I won't get caught in that clusterfuck. I think that alliance also contains way too many threats so I'd have to find some way to...not go with everyone all the way in the future.
But that's a future problem, and all I need to worry about now is NuBarrie. I want Emma to go next since she seems more opposed towards us, plus even in the one conversation I had with Jake (who played and hosted with my mom Jessica) he already seems more likeable. I've realized I've never had one night without doing something because I've attended tribal every single time :) So I'm having a fucking blast.
So last night I got voted out. It was definitely a blindside. I am no longer completely blindsided because I always prepare for it at every tribal to see my name so I am not totally thrown. But nonetheless this still was a blindside. For this vote I didn't want to stick to old tribe lines because that's boring. We could have easily just voted out Chris and been fine, or the old Barrie's would have voted out Mitch with the vote doubler. I wanted to be on the right side of the vote doubler so I told Chris and Kendall I wanted to vote with them and take out Mitch. Honestly the idea to vote out Mitch came from Mitch. He kept bitching about how he was nervous of getting voted out because he already had a vote against him. I told him to stop complaining about it and do something to save himself.
This gave me the idea to try and vote him out and I thought that the old Barrie's would be down for it. As it turns out Junior had a plan of his own to vote me out for some ungodly reason. He claims it was to "get less blood on his hands because he has voted me out of a game already." I didn't know I was playing with such petty bitches and i would have to worry about other games in this one. But I guess I was wrong. Maybe there was more to it that I won't know until later, but maybe there isn't. I really thought I could have been aligned with Lydia, Kendall, and Chris. I apparently came on too strong with Lydia but when I am talking to people at work I tend to get right to the point. With Kendall she claims that she didn't have much time to do anything because she was approached very close to the vote (and she updated me on everything that happened as far as she knew while the votes were being read). Chris was nervous because I told him that people were writing his name down. Which they did. So I guess warning someone you want to vote with that their name is getting written down by people is the wrong move and I just won't do that anymore.... (Although I did tell Chris I was undecided on which side to vote with but then said I was gonna vote with him) ANYWAYS!
Now here I am voted out and not in the game. I think Junior got nervous about me potentially working with Jordan at merge. Because at merge this game is DEFINITELY going to be Jordan vs. Junior. If I SOMEHOW am the one to get in from this crazy twist then that would be amazing. I think I am the last person anyone on Smee would want back in the game right now. I would love to come back and make Junior shit bricks. Because he will DEFINITELY be my number 1 target. And for the record, it is because he got me voted out of this game and NOT because of another game we have played together because I am not that petty of a person. I have blindsided Jordan about 3 times in games and we still work together in others. If I am the one to come back that would be great, if not then I hope whoever does fucks. shit. UP.
Tonight was wild! I'm gonna make a confessional before tribal cause goddamn. Once again, I played a bit recklessly so I'm not surprised if it all blows up on me tonight.
So with Mitch taking a self vote, Junior wanting to jump ship, and Chris taking every advantage like the double vote, being in the minority doesn't mean shit.
Ok so Kendall did that thing she did where she throws out names without talking to anyone, so everyone wanted to go for Mitch. Of course, I like Mitch so I wasn't down for that.
I felt sort of shit out of luck, until Christine came to me asking for her help voting out Chris. Now honestly I really liked that plan because if Junior was ok with it, I have a lot of new connections and only one person who'd be mad, Kendall. I'm not super focused on keeping Barrie together, honestly they voted out Zack and I'm not over it yet. But Junior wasn't okay with it because of Bora so I'm working around that. He really wanted Stevie out and I completely understand why.
Stevie seemed...friendly until he suddenly became very not friendly. He apparently promised Kendall long-term protection if we voted the way they wanted too, but obviously he's going back on that because it sounds like he's voting Chris. That seems a bit messy. Also he was pretty aggressive with me over PMs about where I was voting, and then stopped answering completely. I think he'd be more beneficial to go than Chris or Mitch.
Also the fact that Kendall clearly made protecting Chris and myself a priority, it feels pretty fucked up to target Chris behind her back.
First of all, I'd like to personally apologize to the hosts for not submitting a single confessional until 8 people were out of the game. I'd also like to counter that by saying that nothing ever happened on both Smee tribes, so I'm using that as an excuse to justify being lazy. SO 8 people are out of the game. RIP Danny, Szymon, Rhea, Zack, Ricky, Punpun, Stevie, and Emma. I hardly knew ye. IDK a Danny. I was hoping to work with Szymon, but being inactive in another country really does a number on your social game, and I can imagine him being exhausted after Sr* L*nk*. IDK a Rhea or Zack either. Ricky was an ok dude, he kinda talked a lot for my taste but w/e no offense Ricky. I adored Punpun and I'm not sure why Barrie voted them out besides being not the greatest at challenges, they laughed at my jokes so that makes me feel great. Stevie was someone I talked to frequently, but none of our conversations felt genuine, and I'm surprised he went home over me. Emma was chill. But she was busy. So I barely knew ye. Speaking of being surprised that Stevie went home over me, I'm surprised Stevie went home over me. I can't make decisions for myself. At Sacrificial Lamb, I took a self vote thinking it would help our tribe win (news- it didn't, we were in the negatives, and Barrie ALL took self votes so that was a crapshoot) and it almost killed me. I didn't win individual immunity. Chris had a double vote, and seeing as it was Barrie v Smee, I thought he'd backpack off my self vote to send me packing. I accepted death that day. I even showed Christine and Samuel my idol clue and map in case I went home, so it wouldn't go to waste. And then I spent the greater part of Monday fighting for my life even though I didn't care that much. A metaphor for my real life honestly. So I talked to Lydia. Did I mention I like Lydia? She's smart and she has all her marbles (which is honestly more than I can say) and I'm glad I talked to her before Monday because she said we vibed well, which I agreed with. It turns out Lydia's the reason I didn't go home which is beautiful, I'd heard she was hesitant to vote me out, and I let her know no matter what she did I respect her decision. And she sent Stevie home because he pressured her into voting for Chris (which was my plan sorry dude it's the only way I could live honestly) and she didn't like that. I guess Junior hopped on board with that plan and voted Stevie out. Which is great for me. I am an idiot and I will gladly tag along with whoever protects me. I'm a sheep.
My alliance right now, solidly? Christine, Samuel, and Lydia. I love Christine. She is so gosh darn cute and good at challenges and dl;khs;ghs. I absolutely owe it to her to make up for my sin of not giving her an idol in Sr* L*nk*. I'm going to do whatever I can to help her out. Samuel is definitely one of the nicest dudes out here, and we mesh well and I really consider him a good friend. I'm fairly certain that Christine and Samuel voted for Chris last round like I asked them to (better than Stevie and Junior at least.) I like Junior, but I'm getting the same vibe from him that I got with Stevie. We talk, but it doesn't feel too real, y'know. ANYWAY I'm hoping my alliance of much smarter people figures shit out. I'm not here to win, I'm here to help the real winners.<3 I am oblivious when it comes to social relationships. I had no idea Stevie was going home. The only thing I can say about myself is I'm a vote and I'm diehard loyal. And I'm really good at challenges. I took a nap and didn't submit my score in time for Simon but we won anyway. A metaphor for my life honestly. Shout out to Kendall for being really good at challenges. This season is much better than Sri Lanka. It's not all returnees and (as far as I know) nobody is out for blood. Or colossal anuses. Then again appearances can be deceiving. I thought Jake B was cool and he ended up being one of the meanest people in confessionals and stuff. No offense Jake B but there's a reason I didn't vote for you. I'm terrible at Survivor because I play with my emotions in mind. I play with the nice folks. And I like helping the nice ones because they deserve to win. And if I have to be mean to mean people, I will be. My goal for this game to find an idol I can keep. And make jury. Again. Did I mention I'm grateful to be here???
I hope youre doing good kait <3
I am writing a confessional to celebrate. Huzzah!
Okay so the lost boys thing is finally happening! (I say finally like I have been waiting forever and it's been like 3 days) This challenge Grid 16 is satanic. It is so stressful, I forget how some of the games are played when they pop up, and even though it tells you not to panic, I still totally panic. It is a really cool game though, I really like the concept but in the reality of playing it, I hate it. I have been talking to a few people since I came back and Kendall seemed excited. I truly have nothing against Kendall and if I were to return to the game it would be pretty cool to potentially work with her.
Lydia I feel is fake. The conversations we have she seems to portray herself as thinking one way, then when I say something going along with that she gets thrown off. For example, she said merge is a new game. Then we were talking about me getting voted out and I was gonna ask questions then said it doesn't matter. Her response of "it doesn't?" made me inquire about her saying merge is a new game. If she truly believes merge is a new game then that shouldn't matter and I straight up asked her if she truly believed that and if we could move past it. It turns out my bluntness scares the shit out of her. I will not be duped by someone saying merge is a new game to then get blindsided by them again. She blindsided me once, she can do it again. I haven't really lied to her yet. I have just been super straightforward and honest with her and she can't handle it i guess? Idk I guess fake people don't like the truth.......But maybe she will get over her fear of me and realize I am a perfect meat shield. And who knows, maybe she is telling the truth and believes merge is a new game and we could work together. I just gotta get back in the game first.
Junior is the most interesting one of them all. Of course when we were added to the merge tribe I told people that I would want to go after Junior right away. It makes sense, he made me feel like my vote off was his idea. I was obviously betrayed by people, and it doesn't make sense for me to want to work with them. Which then in turn makes me and Junior the perfect #secretpairbeware. NO ONE would ever see me and Junior working together. I have told enough people that I want him out. It makes sense that I want him out. He made it feel like the vote was for reasons not pertaining to this game and that fired me up. Now I don't fully know why I was voted out and why everyone who voted for me made the decision but I am just gonna let it go now. If I get back in I would truly try and play merge as a new game. Mostly because no one would expect that from me. Again, at this point I just have to focus on getting back into the game and worry about what I will do in the game later.
Also, if I make it to part 2 and it is some social bullshit where people in the game currently have a say of who comes in and who doesn't out of the three I should just drop out now. No way in HELL would people actively choose to have me back over others. So if that is true then this game is rigged against me and I will be blind to anything or anyone that tells me otherwise :~)
*Moments Later*
So today I have been talking a lot to Austin and Jordan. I had originally thought I would work with Jordan immediately and go for Junior. Which he had confronted me about because that is what he heard. And as soon as I saw he approached me about it, that is when I came up with the idea of the secret pair. i had assumed he would be against working with me so I was gonna go against him, but him talking to me gave me that idea to try and work with him. Again, I think it will require a lot of blind faith from the both of us that we each will be very reluctant to give. So if i get back in we will have to see where things go with that. Sticking with Jordan and allegedly Austin and not being on the same side as Junior is also a good option quite possibly.
While talking to Jordan, we were talking about my vote off to try and figure out where people's allegiances lie. My vote off was very interesting because the people that did vote for me was the old Barrie's and Junior, an old Smee. Jordan said that the old Barrie's were tight and the 6 were gonna try and stick together, but them having Junior vote with them makes it interesting. because it calls to question who had to convince who and actually who's idea was it? When I was talking to Junior about it he said this:
"Like it was political cause it came down to a compromise between both sides & Mitch & Chris both couldn't go so as the names started dwindling on the list we decided it was something we could compromise on"
So when I was talking to junior I just got annoyed that he had to mention Tumblr big Brother when we talked about it earlier if it had nothing to do with it. Then when I was talking to Jordan and showed him that this is what Junior said I reread it and really paid attention to it and I thought about it more. He said both sides came to a compromise (Old Barrie & Old Smee). Mitch and Chris both couldn't go. So this conversation definitely involved at least Mitch, maybe Chris as well. Then names started dwindling on both sides. I know Mitch told me that him and Samuel talk a decent amount so I assume they are a pair so Mitch wouldn't want to vote out Samuel. When I talked to Lydia she mentioned she liked Mitch and they talked a bit. So I am assuming Lydia was in this conversation and not Chris. Or that it was Lydia and Chris present. And Lydia wouldn't want to vote out an Old Barrie member because it could all just be a sham to pick them off one by one. Then, why would anyone vote out Christine? She is sweet, really good at challenges, and seemingly loyal so far. And again, this goes back to me thinking Junior was afraid i would go against him at merge. I know the Barrie's were skeptical of me because I was telling them I wanted to vote with them, and telling them it was a situation of not sticking to old tribe lines and that I was putting myself out there. Yeah I was talking as if i had the upper hand because I was flipping to them and I easily could have not done it. So the 'compromise' between the two sides resulted in me getting voted out. This 'compromise' had to be made between people on both sides and at this point i am definitely thinking that Junior, Lydia, and Mitch may have a little something going on. Once this lost boys thing is over and decided with it is going to be really interesting to see where loyalties are going to fall, whether I am included in the game or not I am excited to see how it pans out.
Off to play the satanic grid!!
Episode 6 Confessionals
I really cannot wait till merge because this tribe is boring. Like I think I said that about Barrie but it was but god have these people held a conversation? Do they have social skills? I know I'm lacking in my social game, if I even have one, but these people just...suck. Jake never responded to my hey what's up message at the beginning of swap which was like...two or three days ago, so I really don't know what he's up to. Maybe he's scared of gay people or something idk. Having a conversation with Alex...I wish there was something I could compare it to, but I can't, because the conversation doesn't even exist. I mean I haven't messaged him in a week and a half lmao but I'm trying. The only people I talked to on Barrie often were Lydia (who I think was done with me anyways) and Chris. And guess where they are? Smee. And it's very likely that one of them and Kendall is going home at the double tribal... Hopefully the tribal over here goes well. I'm predicting Jordan gets it although I don't know how good he is at Tetris in particular. If Austin sticks to the plan, it's Emma tonight but I guess Jake will go because how on earth is Punpun a threat at this point (noah fence)
So really, whenever merge is, 13 like Jordan thinks or 9 for all I care, I just hope I make it. What I don't need is another 14th place trophy to claim tomorrow. So if I wake up and I'm in the freaking viewing lounge, and I barely miss jury, I'm gonna cry. I mean I'm already crying for a variety of reasons but this adds another one.
And I realize that if I want to survive in the merge or even just far I should probably...tone it down a little. On Barrie Jordan was the best flash game person and I was close behind him usually, so that's one person who's better than me, but if I'm gonna survive I need people to hide behind. Hopefully Smee will be pissed at Austin or maybe they'll go after Jordan or just someone who isn't me first. I mean, flash games are the only challenge type I'm good at because if you look at the creative challenges or those trivia things I just suck. But seriously I need to find all the people who put all their free time into flash games and just pretend I suck for a while with the naive hope that that plan would actually work.
Hi, haven't sent one of these in a while.
The swap sucked because Chris/Kendall were the two I wanted to be with me on Barrie, but I got stuck with Jordan and Kevin, neither of which I talked to much. Austin, however, really is a bit big with his britches. He wants to take out all of Smee and really wants to be as ruthless as possible. I know how he plays from watching it as a host. He's a "Go big or go home" guy, and going up in a FTC with him is not a good thing. However, right now, he's on my side. And I'd rather have him trust me than say Junior. He wants to vote out Punpun, who I've grown to like. So, I can't do that and I won't really want to. If they (Pun/Emma) want to vote out Jake, that's probably what I'll do.
Austin is pissing me off oh my GOD. Let's go through this step by step so we can really understand what it feels like to be dumb.
First, Austin says to vote out Jake. And that's a good plan because he's inactive and what not and he's not really worth anything to me. Then, I talk to Punpun, who also wants to vote out Jake. Of course, being a logical, reasonable human being, Austin immediately thinks, hey, let's not try to keep our tribe together by having an unanimous (or almost unanimous because Emma still wants one of us out yikes!) voteout, because that would be BORING. No let's not vote out Jake specifically because Punpun wants to and instead let's vote out PUNPUN for reasons that Austin pulled out of his ass. He's like...oh, let's take Jake, the inactive who won't be any help because he's having fun at Disney or whatever, and Emma, who was in the minority last vote and is still against us. Like is it a good idea to take the person who is specifically against us instead of the person willing to work with us? And then Austin also loses his counting ability and he thinks we're merging at 11 (we could be but like Jordan said a 13 merge is likely). The leftover Barrie members will jump ship to us, because they have no choice. But Austin thinks that it's beneficial for a Barrie member to be eliminated. Um, no? It's gonna likely be 5 Barries to 8 Smees, that's hardly beneficial at all! Even with Austin flipping 6 to 7, which surprise, is not majority. Maybe I'm just mad because I seem to be the only person here with any connection to Punpun. And it seems voting out Punpun is the only way no one will get pissed--except me.
Okay I guess Punpun will have to go. What I'm praying for is that everyone will hate Junior for ruining our lives, and if anyone is smart they'll flip on him and then hopefully we'll make it far before someone fucks it up. I'm not trying to push too hard because I can't be too choosy, Austin is the person choosing to vote with us. If this fucks up the game then just know he was responsible for Punpun's voteout if it happens. And hopefully, I can get some vengeance for Punpun as well later :~)
Well hello there! Long time no see, huh? That's mainly because nothing's been happening considering Smee kept winning every single tribal, but now since the swap everything's changed. First of all, my one true ally Jake is on the other tribe so that's a little worrisome and I have no idea what the heck Austin is doing at this point so I'm just hoping Jake survives enough so we can both make merge together. Over here is a little more complicated...I'm happy Lydia's here of course but this whole vote is super stressful. Like, I knew I should've taken the double vote at that reward challenge and I chickened out at the last second and for some reason Mitch took a self vote? So that makes things a little more complicated. He shared the idol clue with me though and I actually think I have a pretty good idea of where it might be. Hopefully. I don't know, I could be overthinking it but whatever.
ANYWAY, I don't wanna take the easy way out and vote out Mitch this round. Like, I trust him so obviously I don't wanna see him go so hopefully we can dig him out of this self vote grave. I'm trying to see if Lydia would be on board with getting Chris out. I'm just hoping for the best at this point honestly, so hopefully it works out.
Episode 5 Confessionals
hi jenn <3
*Moments later*
Jenn from the block has an alliance with kait its very sus
So right now Jenn is holding a knife to my throat until i write a confessional so here I am! I have talked to a few people recently and it seems to be true that everyone is kinda worried about our tribe not really having any alliances because we haven't really needed to make any strong bonds yet. So far I am pretty good with Junior and Mitch definitely. Everyone else is a wildcard at this point. I really enjoy slaying and not having to worry too much about it. If we could stay like this until a swap that would be cute. From there this game could get really exciting with seeing how it all turns out because the Barrie's will most definitely scramble because they will be minority. It's all just a matter of when that happens. Hopefully Smee keeps winning these immunities by 1 point!!!
So I'm pretty sure there's gonna be a swap today and I hope it goes great bc if I go home at my first tribal council of the game I will throw Jenn and Kait's shoes into the ocean.
Finally, Zack went home! And now I don't have to be scared of someone flipping...well, actually, I do. Because Lydia...I think she's not okay with the tribal's results. For a while now she's been on Zack's side. She voted for Chris because of...Kendall doing things, and her voting comment was kinda weird but I'm not sure what to think of it yet. So could Lydia flip at swap now? It's more likely than you think. I have a solid(ish) alliance right now, buuuut I don't know if it'll actually stick together because the only person who is available to go to reward (and probably choose the tribes at the challenge) is Alex, and who knows what he's doing at all.
I love Ricky but ten bucks says ricky hates me
*Moments later*
Also: this tribe is lit
Zack went home <3
I did receive a vote at Tribal, and it was either from Lydia or Zack so it doesn't bother me much.
As for this upcoming challenge, I guess I'm taking the role of representative, which is cool. I'm 90% sure it's something to do with a tribe swap, and I'd rather have some responsibility as to who stays with me.
oh yay, a tribe swap where I end up with the people who I probably know the least. I'm full of joy right now. I love being with the person I don't trust who's in the alliance I don't like as well as the guy who rarely talks, if ever.
Buuut thanks to like, Emma or whoever, I'm on NuBarrie. Not to like jinx myself but I'm happy that I've gotten through bc this is the first time in my flop career I HAVEN'T been booted at my third tribal. I mean, it sucks that Barrie got its ass kicked and whatever, but honestly? With that many flops, what'd you expect? And I'm really disappointed all the people I liked on my tribe disappeared and now I'm stuck with...this. Like, Alex told me not to take Austin onto the tribe because he won't submit. But Austin is the exact person we need because he's the weak link.
So besides the people who I actually know, I may have a chance with these people. I know Ricky, Austin, and Punpun, Emma seems nice, Jake hasn't talked to me which is an experience I've expected as the norm but hopefully he doesn't decide to ghost on me. I chose Punpun because I know them the best, and I hope so much that they can flip with us; even if Punpun doesn't flip, at the very least I really hope they won't vote me out. Ricky...okay, well, Ricky fucking voted me out in Madagascar after trying to convince me to vote Jordan for like, 30 minutes, so I'm gonna hesitate of course because I'm not stupid buuut maybe I can find another friend. Austin...he was the host of Pompeii so we started talking about all 15 seconds of fame I had in that gamer, and since we were talking about me I was excited. I hope hope hope (something I keep saying but despite my low hopes and expectations I'm still let down) that he was on the bottom at Smee and his paranoia can maybe help him flip so y'know, we won't have to risk tying. I hope he doesn't like...use his knowledge of my confessionals or whatever to get an idea of what I'm thinking.
Ummm bye Austin just told me he might ask to be voted out at the next tribal um thank you God??? This is exactly what I needed.
And for the reward challenge...well, yikes. Frankly, an extra self-vote is exactly what I don't need when I'm already in the minority and I'm relying on Punpun/someone else's vote to save us. Because who knows what was happening on the other tribe, for all I know they could have been in a big alliance. But when you take that group of ten there is guaranteed to be someone on the bottom, and they need to take action quickly. And I hope so much I can find that person.
I HATE MY FUCKING TRIBE SO MUCH. GOD. WHY AM I STICK ON FLOP ISLAND. WERE JUST ASKING TO GET PAGONGED
Wow I love paranoia and fear. So Jordan messaged me about staying together which is the obvious and then he thinks Jake and Austin are gonna flip to us and I'm like great great we have a chance of surviving. But then I talk to Austin again and he tells me he sorta implies working with me, and since Jordan told me about this I asked him about it and then he just disappeared and it's a few hours later and he never responded and I'm screaming inside. Annnd Jordan has told the entire tribe to take self-votes, but who knows who's keeping true to that promise. Maybe Smee feels confident enough that they'll take self-votes, but some (like Ricky) have been awfully quiet.
*Moments later*
Oh, wow, look at that. I've lost...what, 8/10 challenges in the game? Amazing, to be honest. This game is really going great for me. Absolutely, positively great.
Soo, Austin messaged me at 6 am because I guess he hates his life or something, and told me that "sometime between work and school" he'll give me the clue to the idol. Well, it's 10 pm and no sign of that. He also said he had something that he thought would be interesting for me so I guess he's the king of leaving people on the edge. I was really worried he would be med evac'd with the idol clue...and I'd be dead...but according to Jordan, I'm safe. And according to Austin. He has a double vote as well, and Jordan, who's apparently buddies with Austin, said he's gonna use that to ensure it doesn't tie and it's not one of us going home. Buuut basically my fate is entirely in Austin's hands tonight, and I really, really hope he stays true to his word. Because if he does, I will be sooo in debt to him...at least, for a while.
*Moments later*
bye austin's gonna self vote because he hasn't talked to me since 6 am yesterday and emma's gonna vote me out and i'll be voted out 2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1
*Moments later*
PHEW that worked. Austin appeared and it turns out Jenn flopped and gave Jordan the idol clue so he's still waiting on that... but our plan worked for the most part. I had talked to Emma about voting, and even though both Jordan and Austin told me she was voting Punpun, she decided to #mixitup and voted Jordan anyways... I don't blame her, I guess.
Austin's plan was to pull Punpun to our side after Emma would vote Punpun, except that didn't happen so that kinda...flopped. And when the tribe was forming she wanted to bring Ricky over so I'm sure she's not very pleased. But either way, we have a 4-3 advantage; as long as Austin stays loyal, we're safe. But he did tell me he's a sucker for flipping. And I'm like, that's great, for now. But if flipping really is one of his habits, then I need to cut him off before he ruins my game.
Jordan's like...not super concerned about the other Barrie people. He's like it's about us now. Well guess what Jordan, us is literally 3 people, and no matter when merge is 3 people don't have a likely chance of making it far... Chris didn't seem terribly optimistic about his chances, but I didn't get to talk to him much. He said the Smee people there thought a. Austin was useless (i mean i guess they're right but guess what Austin just did? that) b. and Emma would be the deciding vote (...sure!) So if there's one thing to be optimistic about, it's that Smee members are self-destructive dumbasses who were just waiting to fall apart.
Episode 4 Confessionals
So, um...what the hell.
Last night I was kinda annoyed because Lydia was voting with everyone but in my alliance. But despite my problems with the alliance, I think flipping would be the option that makes people more mad and puts the target on me too early. So while we do have a 4-3 advantage, making it the best time to flip, I don't think I'll do that just yet.
So anyways I told Lydia I wasn't sure on the plan she had made and she told me if she didn't have me she wouldn't go through with it so I was like thank God and we both voted Zack and you know what the bitch does? Pull out a Ruby idol and put our lives at risk. And Rhea got rocked out and now I'm just...processing this mess.
And so, maybe now is our chance to win immunity. Jordan brought up a good point on how tribes that don't go to tribal often have unsettled disputes and divisions, and I hope to god that's the case because that's what we need to survive a swap. I really, really hope they have someone they've wanted to get rid of or someone who's a snake and wants to flip. I'm living on a prayer right now.
So I really want to make a video for you guys but I don't feel like doing it this very moment so I'm just going to type a short rant.
When i say short, I mean short, because I'd rather rant out loud.
My tribe does not do what is asked of these challenges until the last minute. I would work harder on these and try to get them done before it was the last moment, but my tribe does not act like they are interested in it until it is the last moment. I'm tired of it. Like legitimately. I feel like I've had to carry the dead weight of this team in the past two two-day challenges and I hate it. I hate it so much so that it makes me consider leaving this game. It's just not worth it.
I guess that makes me OTTN.
Being on Barrie means we lose absolutely everything. However, I feel good going into this Tribal. I talked with Chris prior to us losing, and got us onto good terms.
My biggest regret though is not talking to Kendall in Malaysia. Like, holy hell I only talked for her on call for 7 minutes and she's an absolute joy. I normally have my doubts about her, but in general she's a sweet human being. In her words, "Maslaysias have to stick together" so I'm pretty okay with that.
(On the subject of Malaysia, this doesn't have to be included in the confessional but I'm doing it anyways. In general the cast of Malaysia does really well in games. Like, on average I'm always hearing someone from Malaysia making finals and such.)
I'm talking with Lydia right now. Kendall told me to keep her out of the loop out of fear really, and I think it's fine but if we're swapping that's an issue. But, it's awkward talking to Lydia. Our talks have been strictly strategy. I think she gets the vibe from me that that's who I am, and I guess that's fine. But the way she talks, she does natural pauses... like she's thinking about what to say... so it kind of goes like this. Nothing wrong with it, but she's a tad standoffish towards me.
As of right now, the vote should be Zack and I'm glad for it. I'm just worried coming out of this Tribal. If we swap we're going 5-3 on each tribe if you're doing it evenly. If not, we're even more fucked.
Odd place to stop, but I don't have much else to say.
Wow, Barrie tribe? Losing immunity? I would say it's shocking, but no, it's not, because we suck. Like even when we do well in challenges it's either reward or not well enough.
If there's one good thing to draw out of this...well, there's a couple, I guess. For one, I really, really, really hope the other tribe has someone who they've been dying to get rid, but since we suck they haven't been able to. And once we (hopefully) get on a tribe with that weak link, they'll go before us. But that's all dependent on luck, which is what I'm holding out on, because this game is mostly luck, and you've gotta play with what you have.
And the other good thing? Getting rid of Zack's messy ass. If Barrie is Luzon (although I would compare it to Ulong at this point, hopefully with me as the Stephenie), Zack is definitely J'Tia who's been targeted since day one. But now he's run out of hiding places and I hope to God he doesn't have an idol to ruin our lives even more. Thankfully, even if he does, Zack is voting Alex. But tonight, I'm voting on the basis of who would flip after a swap, and that's obviously Zack. So bye bye.
Alright saving Zack the Sequel. It's really sad that after all that shit last time I'm still doing this again, as if I honestly didn't learn my lesson then. This would be a whole ton easier if Zack didn't go to work and vote Alex. It just makes this a lot more difficult to work around. I am taking a vastly different approach this round and being genuine with people.
If Zack goes and I'm still here after having just lied my ass off to these people then...that's not great either. So I have openly told Jordan and Kendall that I like Zack, but I didn't my best to phrase it in a way that I have his loyalty to use in the future. And then I pulled out the classic 'Zack tried, does Alex even wanna be here' thing. Only spoiler alert, Kendall and Alex have a real life connection I think? And that's just my curse in this game...
But Kendall has been great so far. I actually really enjoy talking to her about tribals because she's rational and not flighty or overly aggressive (like me). So when I brought up her friend, she defended him, and then we moved right on to other options, which was nice. I feel like Kendall knows when to lie and when to compromise, which honestly it not as easy as you'd think in this game. She suggested Chris, which I would be okay with, I don't care if it would piss Jordan off. Kevin might not do it, which of course ruins the plan. It wouldn't if ZACK DIDN'T HAVE WORK. But I'm dealing with it.
Jordan isn't great at talking to me about the vote. I always feel like he's...well he's obviously lying. "I talk to you as much as I talk to the rest of them" pls stop. I don't need to be your best friend to vote with you. Also he does this every time where I ask him about the vote and he says he hasn't heard anything but then immediately says who it probably is. What is up with that? Is that supposed to make me feel like we're on the same level and I'm not out the loop? Cause then he shouldn't tell me who he's heard. I just don't completely have the patience to deal with him and am constantly typing out and then erasing passive aggressive things.
I think....Zack's going to go. Because everyone is much more intertwined then I thought they were. Without Zack, I still have Kevin....It's just my dream alliance is getting picked off very quickly because Kevin is scared to upset people and the rest of them are all weirdly connected. f Kendall refuses to vote Alex, and Jordan and Kendall are as tight as they have both said they are, then that would mean if we don't swap (which I'm not convinced we will), that I am most likely next. I honestly think they are all entertaining me but most of them don't seriously consider any of my ideas because they don't need to which...obviously that's fair. If I could keep Zack and Rhea safe and vote out people who I don't feel close to I wouldn't be listening to people's ideas either.
I promised him I wouldn't write his name down (last time was a exception), and I won't, becuse they will be read and it just feels wrong. I know that won't look great to the rest of the tribe but...I'm not feeling much drive in this game, so I'm really just hanging in here because of loyalty. I'll throw a vote at Chris most likely.
So I'm just honestly pretty sad about this tribal. Not even really feeling defeated or anything, I'm just gonna be in mourning for Zack and Rhea for awhile...
Why does Lydia do this at every tribal like I really trust her and wanna work with her, and honestly if it were up to me I'd be in an alliance with her. But talking with her during tribal is so risky and it worries me. She doesn't trust Jordan because of the way he talks to her, cause he's like "we're all voting Zack" and honestly I'm on Lydia's side on that. Then she's like vote Alex, except she then goes to Kendall who knows Alex. Then she's saying to vote Chris, except no I like Chris but apparently KENDALL said she would vote Chris what the hell???
Oh Jesus Christ Jordan just messaged me I'm pissing.
Okay he literally just wanted to talk because we haven't talked one-on-one. I guess he realized he like, needs to have connections with the people in the alliance that I never agreed to. But it's not like I can do anything about it because Zack already voted for Alex and there's no way I'm flipping on Chris. I tried asking Jordan what he thinks about Alex's and Lydia's loyalty to the tribe in a swap and it was like talking to grass except even less exciting because he didn't push the conversation at all even though he was the one who started it.
My tribe hasn't gone to tribal yet. #blessed.
*Moments later*
This game is going so well. My tribe has won every single challenge except one (we don't talk about the puzzle). Gameplay wise, everything is like stuck frozen bc we have haven't gone to tribal.
*Moments later*
I'm glad I'm in Smee bc Barrie is a BARRIE BIG MESS (hahahahah)
Okay, this is actually kind of painful. He seemed like he really wanted to be here, but it was him or Alex. In the end I trusted Alex more. We need a tribe swap but at the same time, I don't want to see any of them go.
Episode 3 Confessionals
Okay, Szymon tribal went well. I'm glad the entire tribe went along with it because I don't need any shit hitting the fan right now!!! And a losing tribe is already bad, but a losing, divided tribe is even worse.
I checked the blog first thing when I woke up and I'm thankful there wasn't a swap. Assuming it's at 16, I'm hoping soooo much we win the next immunity. I mean, winning one challenge alone would be fine, but winning immunity would be better. Thankfully we have Jordan on our tribe and hopefully his time on the puzzle alone can save us.
and honestly, if I ever end up on a tribe with Junior I'll want to vote him out because he is ruining my life right now singlehandedly. Like his flop video somehow beat us and he keeps getting good scores in challenges??? Go away???
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz! Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!
Black and yellow!
Hello!
You ready for this, hot shot?
Yeah. Yeah, bring it on.
Wind, check.
- Antennae, check. - Nectar pack, check.
- Wings, check. - Stinger, check.
Scared out of my shorts, check.
OK, ladies,
let's move it out!
Pound those petunias, you striped stem-suckers!
All of you, drain those flowers!
Wow! I'm out!
I can't believe I'm out!
So blue.
I feel so fast and free!
Box kite!
Wow!
Flowers!
This is Blue Leader. We have roses visual.
Bring it around 30 degrees and hold.
Roses!
30 degrees, roger. Bringing it around.
Stand to the side, kid. It's got a bit of a kick.
That is one nectar collector!
- Ever see pollination up close? - No, sir.
I pick up some pollen here, sprinkle it over here. Maybe a dash over there,
a pinch on that one. See that? It's a little bit of magic.
That's amazing. Why do we do that?
That's pollen power. More pollen, more flowers, more nectar, more honey for us.
Oool.
I'm picking up a lot of bright yellow. Oould be daisies. Don't we need those?
Oopy that visual.
Wait. One of these flowers seems to be on the move.
Say again? You're reporting a moving flower?
Affirmative.
That was on the line!
This is the coolest. What is it?
I don't know, but I'm loving this color.
It smells good. Not like a flower, but I like it.
*Insert the rest of the Bee Movie script here*
Of all people you sit out of a reward challenge that features a puzzle, Junior? I get that you can't sit out back to back challenges, but really? It seems so bizarre? I'm confused. It just seems so strange.
In other news, the Barrie tribe actually won something.... like we actually won....
Yes, I know it's just a reward challenge, but this may have been the boost we needed to win an immunity challenge! I'm being as hopeful as possible, and I'm excited!!
me christine and emma waiting for a swap to get away from these freaks
damn emma back at it again with flopping.... i hate myself
This challenge is the exact equivalent to staring directly into hell.
I'm just looking for ANUSTART
Jenn told me to make a confessional. So here I guess.
Okay on one part I'm screaming in joy and on the other part I'm screaming in shock because Lydia is spilling the fucking tea and I'm bald.
So we won reward, hurray, we can officially stop getting our asses handed to us. We have a 2 point advantage in the challenge and also prevented Junior from going to Mermaid Lagoon.
But Lydia...has entirely changed my perspective on this alliance. Or at least, made me consider changing my perspective on the alliance. She basically says she suspects there's a pregame alliance between Jordan, Chris, Rhea, Stevie, Szymon, and Ricky. And if that's real...uh, yikes! Because if I ever end up on a tribe with Jordan, Chris, or Rhea after a swap, guess who's going home before they do? Me! And, y'know, that's not happening. But would I be willing to betray my alliance like that? Um...who knows?
The funny thing is Kendall was the one who started the alliance, and she's the person who's not even in the supposed pregame. Like, is Lydia just being paranoid? Because I don't blame her. But even if there isn't a pregame, it still stands that that group of people is close, and they're gonna take their friends along with them. They're gonna choose their friends over me at swap, they're gonna choose them at merge, and they're gonna vote them as jurors.
Ideally...I guess I would vote out Rhea. Idk. If we go to another tribal, I might test the waters and suggest Rhea to the alliance and see how Chris or Jordan react. If they refuse to, despite Rhea not being the best in challenges, it might be enough to change my vote and my loyalty. But I really, really do not want to betray them--especially Kendall! I need to talk to her later and see what she thinks about all this.
Okay so far Flame Pea has been doing pretty good on challenges. I think we are a point where we may meet our downfall *knock on wood* As far as I know, alliances may not have been made yet. I am kinda nervous because if they have, I am DEFINITELY not a part of them. So that's a bit scary. I am going to continue being naive and just believe that since we haven't needed to strategize yet no one has solidified anything! I honestly don't know how things are going in this tribe. Me and Junior seem close and we have kinda talked about working together but I don't know how real that is. I feel like i should start talking to people more...........but I am also annoyed that no one has attempted to start talking to me more either. Oh well, I don't mind always being the one to make the first move I've gotten used to it. Hopefully we can pull off another immunity win and I can keep up my innocence about potential alliances that have formed without me. If we were to swap soon that would make it real easy to flip and have some fun with this game
Welp time to go mermaid hunting, those fishy fuckers need to die.
Oh, look at that. Barrie lost another challenge. And would you look at that, we even had a two point advantage! Really shows you how great we are flopping. This tribe is a trainwreck set on fire and it's horrible oh my gosh.
So, Kendall and Jordan are pushing for Zack for the third time. And this time...I'm gonna have to do it. I really like Zack, but in this situation it's him versus the world. I don't know how Alex is voting so flipping would be meaningless. And at this point, I think flipping on the alliance is pointless and can't possibly be beneficial to me. Zack has nowhere to run and nowhere to hide after we've gotten rid of the quitter and the inactive, so now we gotta get rid of the flop. And it's a shame because I enjoyed talking to Zack and I also don't want to betray Lydia... But voting with them would make my real alliance not trust me, and I don't need that this early. And honestly, I'm not even 100% on board with it since there was no conferring about making it, it just sorta happened. I'd rather be aligned with people like Lydia... But I feel like there's nothing to do about it at this point :/
*Moments later*
ALSO I really need Lydia to stop pushing to vote out whoever she wants to vote out (she hasn't even said a sure name yet) because she's trying to get Kendall to flip which won't happen and I don't want to lose her trust but I can't not vote with the alliance. And I can't vote against the alliance because I'm, y'know, not stupid.
I've got a lot to catch ya'll up on.
Okay so I had this random plan to target Jordan Pines because this game is boring as fuck and I am dying. Anyways so for this vote I was working on that and telling people that Jordan in a pregame and idk if he is, I'm suspicious af that he is, but I don't have much proof. I don't really care if this plan blows up in my face, I'm bored and all these players are so damn passive. They all seriously want to vote Zack out right now for no reason except that 'it's what the majority' wants. Obviously I'm pissy about it because Zack's my main, but even aside from that it's just frustrating that no one really wants to discuss any vote further then just 'what name have you heard?' It's so easy for one person to control the vote this way. No one cares about strategy or gameplay or making alliances, as far as I can tell at least. It's very possible that is all happening and I'm just not in it, which is even more reason to do what I wanna do.
Zack's got a ruby idol. Honestly, if Zack isn't in the game I just don't want to play because he's the only thing that makes this feel like a game of Survivor and not a bunch of kids in a chat playing flash games. So I want him to play it tonight. There is no way to flip these votes because Jordan just really wants Zack gone for some reason, Kendall is hard headed as hell (respect tbh. she was so blunt about it i can't do anything but give her credit), and the rest of them can't do math and think that two people is 'majority'.
To be honest, I usually play the most well thought out and delicate games premerge but with this specific group of players I kind of just want to fuck things up and maybe light a fire under someone's ass to make this more interesting. I'm having a conversation with Rhea now where I'm openly just asking her who's she's with and I'm probably being too aggressive but I just have no patience for this. So lets go, lets rock up, I've had nothing but bad luck so far so it's gotta go up eventually.
*Moments later*
Bruh, the last two hours have been...exhausting. Kendall AND Kevin have basically told me to chill out and I mean....they're probably right. I'm playing the messiest game I have ever witnessed simply because I want to save Zack. I'm not even in danger but I am sinking myself to try and hang onto this kid for some reason.
I decided rocks was riskier then I like to get, but in retrospect...that's what we should have stuck with. I had a very risky conversation with Rhea, she coulda been playing me like so hard but whatever. She wants an alliance for four with Zack, Kevin and myself, which fuck yeah, I'm into it. We were either counting on getting Alex to vote with us or him self voting. Except Kevin kinda has a good point about not wanting a divided tribe so close to a swap because...we're so down in numbers that just spells disaster. But also...I'm not giving up Zack, and I'm not writing his name down.
Either way, I've always completely screwed myself by playing 90x harder than everyone else and trying to throw together an alliance two hours before the vote to flip it on people who in all reality have probably done nothing. I also just...don't care? I'm playing nothing like how I usually play, but I gotta say the rush is exciting.
Kevin wouldn't budge, and he's playing much smarter then me right now so I gotta respect that. Alex just stopped answering but it doesn't matter without Kevin anyways, and I think moving forward with Kevin is the best plan I have. I like that kid, he's quiet and really rational. Two things I am not.
So after all that, we're gonna go to rocks I think.
Okay so Tribal, just as a quick thing before I turn OTTN. I thought I was going to be getting votes, and Zack was going to go home all fine and dandy. We were fine. Okay, OTTN time.
Fuck Zack. Honestly he's now my least favorite human being in the entire existence. The guy doesn't participate in the challenges. He doesn't talk much. And then he whips out an idol when he's going home next if I have anything to do about it. We lost Rhea because of him. Rhea was his great person and now I'm fucked. Rhea was my closest ally in this game and now I don't really have a single person.
So, put it in writing, folks; I am going to be the reason Zack goes home. I will talk to every damn person. This is strictly personal. He put all of our lives at stake and I will keep writing his name down until the tribe has fucking spoken.
*Moments later*
And another fucking thing. He doesn't do a damn thing! If he doesn't start being a great participant with these freaking challenges I will rip him apart. Because at that point you're not trying, and Rhea didn't deserve to go over you. If all you are going to do is sit and watch us lose, you deserve to get your torch snuffed.
Episode 2 Confessionals
So we lost the first immunity challenge, and it was just like:
Soooo Danny Quit... and I was just like:
Yet, at the same time, I was like:
First tribal survived!
im so sick and im not even in any alliances yet yikes!!
Hi so this challenge sucks. The fact that it's a kids game is the worst part because the creator of the challenge must hate themselves and honestly they should because this is the worst game and I hate it. The jumping is too weird and it keeps lagging on my computer and that's probably just my problem but oh well.
Wow, Barrie losing the third challenge in a row? It's more likely than you think. You know, I thought we were close on this challenge, except we weren't at all because Rhea got a 0 and two people didn't even submit. Like I love the people on my tribe for the most part but it's hard not to feel down or pissed when people are consistently doing...this.
And if we keep losing I feel like I have no chance of getting far in this game. Because I don't want to be on a losing tribe all the time, and I don't want to be premerge again, no matter how close it is to jury or whatever. I want to actually get a full experience, and that doesn't mean I have to win, I just want to get far for once.
Okay well so far this game is going great, I'm trying to put effort into creating bonds with people, not just being a brat to get what I want. I came here thinking I would probably have to be a spoiled brat but my team is so nice and we're so powerful and I love everyone and I hope we stay undefeated forever I love this.
*Moments later*
So far my tribe has been great.....except Mitch. He's annoying, and obnoxious, and irritating. My personal mission is to make sure he goes home.
What a fun challenge! I can't wait to lose. See, the thing is none of us have an editing program good enough. I don't, but I could edit a video. They just won't turn out as good. Kendall, however, does. I ain't saying a damn thing about it though. Why?
Kendall's been quite lackluster in the challenges. 150 or something in one challenge, didn't submit the reward and such. So I don't think we can count on her to do it. And I definitely don't want to be the guy who says "hey, you do it!". As it's looking right now though, we aren't going to do so hot.
(Also since my memory is off I may have already sent this and if so I apologize).
So I guess I'm an UTR player since this is my first confessional.
I was two second from suggesting this song for the music video challenge:

Then I realized that I am in fact not very good at the um... how you say, getting a bunch of people to agree with me. So I was like. They'll just be like. OMG? What? And then I'll be like... never mind.
I really hope they go along with my Peter Pan musical song because I love that song. A whole lot. I hope we come to a decision soon. And that's it's not that Nikki Minaj song.
I have never won a creative challenge ever and even though I've only done two it's enough to say that creative challenges suck and I suck at them. Like making a tribe flag or whatever was bad enough but this is my first music video and I'm prepared for it to flop. Hardly anyone is talking in the tribe chat...so maybe they're all just busy, hopefully. Well, to look on the bright side, it seems we've at least got a theme (which is Peter Pan because we're creative) and a song (it's called I Won't Grow Up or something, it's like they're trying to imitate the success of music legend Taylor Swift's iconic song Never Grow Up on her iconic album Speak Now, which imo is the greatest album my ears have listened to). But as far as...anything else?
I'm sure we'll figure it out.
*Moments later*
Why is Barrie so quiet omg!!! We're not even going to have a video to submit tomorrow and I am going to cry. Like the only people talking are Chris and Rhea and I keep trying to get them to talk?? Chris has been suggesting ideas but he then told me he's scared of our video flopping (trust me, so am I) and then being responsible for said flopping. Honestly, it's a genuine concern so I understand him perfectly. So I'm just gonna wait for my tribe to come out of the void and try helping. I think our only capable editor is Chris who seemed a bit hesitant (Jordan says he's too busy to do it this weekend). To be honest I really don't wanna be on camera so I'm hoping we have enough people step up to do it so I don't feel pressured.
Part of me feels like I'm not sending enough confessionals. The other part of me feels like I need to send a ton more.
My relationship with Rhea has grown stronger. She said she wanted me to stay in this game, to which I replied "Igualmente'" instead of "Same here", which was really kind of stupid on my part, but we'll deal.
With how these games have been going for me, my win in this game will be contributed to luck, lag, and bullshit. My computer isn't the best. I'd be that lost boy jumping and it just would take fiveever to reach a platform.
I am trying to be a lot more aware with how I'm being perceived. Malaysia kind of hit me in the sense that people get really REALLY annoyed by me. I've had to keep it on the low, and I've been trying my best. Rhea said she likes me, as for the rest of them I'm not sure. But I'm trying my best to not be negative about damn near everything, and hopefully I'm succeeding in that sense.
I don't see us winning this challenge. In general we have not yet solidified a plan. We've picked a song and the rest has been ideas. We'll see how everything pans out!
Welp ,another tribal awaits us. Can someone else quit? I mean, no, okay, I'm kidding, sort of lol.
In all honesty though, I'm sad we lost. Uhm, granted we lost to Junior essentially, and it's hard to me mad losing to him? I mean their video was pretty funny, and like Kiersten, I saw a part of Junior, I never thought I'd see. I just agree that the effort points should have been a little lower because it was a tribe challenge, but at the same time it did take a lot of effort.
Chris was upset, and understandably so. I mean, I would be too if it were me. He worked really hard on it and it sucks completely that we lost. He wants to get Zack out, and frankly, I think I'm okay with that right now.
I feel like I'm in an odd position with my tribe. I like them, but I also feel like I'm not in the greatest place I guess. I feel like I've talked to most of the people on the tribe, except for Kendall really, so I hope that's not a down fall to my game.
Truthfully I'm exhausted. My teachers are shoving down projects one after the other. I'm in a completely different game filled with people who are just as crazy as I am. And I really don't care what happens. I have reached the point of apathy. Genuine Apathy. I have no evil schemes not because I am terrified but because I am so tired and bored. I think I want to get myself out. I want to get myself out. I want to get myself in such away that I end up fucking up everyone's game. Not now though, I'll be damned if I get out before we win one freaking challenge. Well... I probably am but I need some sort of validation for my fragile ego. I'm not going to quit, only losers quit. I'm going to self destruct. BTW, Alex is a lot more chill and fun to communicate with. Good on him
Zack's the only real hoe I've got on my tribe. He's the only one who I legitimately trust to completely and totally have my back, and that I believe won't write my name down. I'm almost there with Rhea and I believe she wouldn't want to, but I know we get along really well as individuals but as players we aren't meshing that well.
Anyways, Zack's my main, and if Jordan doesn't stop throwing his name around every tribal, I will loose my mind. Im praying for a tribe swap after this, I am just so bored....
First of all the fact that we lost by literally one point is the stupidest thing ever. Like we actually we would have won that one if it wasn't for the reward challenge! And now we have to get rid of another member of our tribe. I hope, hope, hope that we do not get fucked by a tribe swap because that is the last thing we need right now! I need at least two more tribals so we could possibly get even with Smee.
My alliance suggested voting out Zack because he was basically useless in the challenge and I was like...okay...true... But I was also like no. Because guess who disappeared off of the face of the earth right after starting this game? Szymon. And like, in the case of a tribe swap, I do not want to be stuck on a tribe with someone who hasn't spoken to me!!! And Zack seems genuinely funny even if he seems to be dead weight. So I suggested Szymon as another option. And not to sound like a cocky asshole who's about to get booted but this tribal is a blessing because I have been waiting to vote Szymon forever! And then Lydia, god bless her soul, was talking to someone and also wanted Szymon out and I'm just like thank you God!!! So basically that made me believe in God again. Sooo hopefully it is Szymon tonight. I talked to Rhea and apparently she (and others too, probably) are still considering Zack so...yikes. But I mean, as long as us four stick together plus Lydia vote Szymon we still get the vote going how we want it! But I am hoping this is unanimous, because I do not need a divided tribe!
Okay I'm talking to Zack and he's willing to vote Szymon. He's aware his name is being thrown around so it wouldn't be smart for him to reject an offer. But honestly, if we lose another immunity challenge Zack's run out of hiding places. Ideal boot order is: Zack > Alex > Rhea > Lydia (note how the women are last because I'm a feminist revolutionary)... and then when you get to our alliance? Mess.
So I've literally watched the other tribe's video THREE times now, this is a serious issue and I need help. I don't know why I keep watching it, but I do. Damn, I gotta stop. Anyway.
So, tribal is tonight, and these Tribal questions are interesting, and I like that they have to be answered in the chat. I think it's really interesting too to see the answers people are giving. I don't know what's happening tonight, in regards to tribal. I've heard two names so far, Szymon and Zack, none of those names are me, so that makes me happy. I'm leaning more toward voting off Szymon, because Zack has actually made an effort with me in this game, even though he left me in Survivor East High, but I separate my games as best as possible, so I won't that affect the vote here. I think if Szymon goes it'll be better, but I'm not 100% sure there the numbers are going to fall, so I am a little bit worried. I'll hope for the best of course!
Until the next time (if I have one in this game)
