Ep. 9 - “I Don’t Know What Is Going On In This Game” - Allison

That sucks that Carson had to go I hope everything in his outside life improves. My pm's haven't been getting replies all day so I don't know what's going on 

“First, your body type has a lot to do with your buoyancy. Fat floats, as you've probably heard, while your bones and muscles, denser than fat, are not as willing to float. Also, the relative size of your lungs to the rest of your body determines how high in the water your body will float." - Montagriff Peck (2017), via Google™

Okay the challenge was simple. I have everyone one (1) arrow, and I shot 10 arrows bc I expect everyone to pay me back by giving me at least one (1) arrow. Fair is fair right? :)

I know I know we all said no one was going to bring personal feelings into this, and no way is this the fault of Carson, but the last tribal was a 100% personal decision made by Carson to leave the game. I'm so so bummed bc I wanted to work with him so bad. But hopefully this opens a door for me and Andrew to put our differences aside. I love Andrew a whole bunch and I want to see him do well and it sucks to see such an amazing player be defeated. Ash and I have not spoken since the first night of merge and I know it's because she knows I'm upset about Gage. While yes, Gage was a big part of my game in Rakiura and Hawaii, I'm still here, and Gage is not, and I'm not going to keep playing like he is. Allison has been but if an up in the air for me. While I know she would have no qualms in voting my ass out, we share a strong common link in Billy, but I don't know if that is enough to just look past our history. And speaking of Billy, he is one of my rocks. He's the person I know I can talk to about anything, that I can strategize with, and that I know I can play with no matter what. The hardest. and most devastating thing is that I know that me and Billy are not getting to the end together. It's just not possible. And if Billy has to go for me to thrive, then.....that sucks. For me, I would really really really love to solidify something with Isaac. Me and Isaac both bring incredibly different strategies to the table. He is probably one of if not the most intelligent person I know. I'd much rather work with him, than against him. He and I have a strong bond, and have the advantage of people knowing we worked very hard against each other in Hawaii. Jordan Pines is a big whew to me. We talk about working together, and never seem to be able to accomplish it. It's almost like we're on different sides of a chain link fence, and we can see and laugh and joke with each other but we know that we will never be on the same side. Karen. For me, that name is synonymous with safe. She is my safety. She is my comfort. She is my one. I know for a solid fact that no matter what ever happens, Karen and I will never EVER turn against each other. The biggest FUCK is that everyone else knows it too. Sara and I have been on the same tribe since the beginning. I would love to go very far in this game with Sara. Because we have never played together before. She's probably who I would consider as my "Day 1" in this game. We haven't left each other's sides yet so! Shea. I don't know what to say. Shea is the only person I have not the greatest relationship with. I don't know Shea is going anywhere anytime soon but I do think Shea is going to talk himself out of the game. He doesn't seem to have a filter, and that sets people very wrong. Carson, as the first jury member, is potentially a good thing, because I believe I would have his vote over a lot of other people in this game. I really think it depends on how I play with Andrew the rest of this game. But aside from that, I did really really enjoy playing with him. I feel if we were given the time, we would have become a force to be reckoned with. I do wish him the best, and I hope dearly that our paths cross again in the future.

I feel bad, Andrew doesn't wanna be here anymore. But I don't want him to quit. I've been bonding with him so much and on a personal level I want him to stay in the game. But he also has to do what's best for him. However About 20 minutes ago I got on call after a long day and all I wanted to do was talk to my friends Isaac, Sara, Andrew and Steffen. And I kid you not I wasn't even on call 10 seconds and they all hung up. And so idk what that was all about. But I'm tired of walking into shady ass calls and then feeling like I'm on the outs. Especially when I'm so close with them all inside and out of this game. Do I think they're plotting against me? No. But it just was weird and I wanted to rant about it. If Andrew does decide to quit I'm PRAYING he gives me his idol before he does. That way even the people who think he has it, they'll think he left the game with it. And then I'll have that level up that no one will think I have. Because why would I ever have gone to Saipan? But yeah, this day has been long, I'm not gonna win immunity, and I'm just ready to move to the next week. Hopefully Shea leaves this week, And hopefully he doesn't pull an idol out of his Bussy and ruin my game. I know you put me up Shea. I know you pit allison and I against each other and that you took Mariana's Trench out of the equation to throw everyone off. Just remember this: this is my series, my game, my friends, my world. Do. Not. Fuck. With. Me. I will destroy you and I will make sure you are gone before anyone remembers who you are. So if you idol me out, or somehow get people against me, know that I will do whatever I can to ensure that you lose, and you lose miserably. Whew.... I'm so done. 

Honestly, at this point I don't even care that Andrew and I are in this game as long as he's alright.

IM ON CALL WITH SARA AND HER MOMS HERE AND SHES LIKE "JORDAN PINES IS NOT INVITED TO MY HOUSE RN"

Whew tonight might draw a line in the sand. We are voting for sara which will be interesting. Idk how tonight is going to turn out but i think im safe and I think allison is safe and thats all that matters.

So.... I've made it to Hawaii.... and I lost my luggage. Here I am sitting on the beach, just tanning and catching a few rays. And I go to take a sip of my iced tea and a rock hits me in the back of my head. I turn around and I see a crouching Jordan Pines saying "Psst I need to talk to you." Turns out, Shea is targeting me. What's the shock?! I've known this was gonna happen for a while. But you know who just saved my ass? Jordan Mother fucking Pines. So it starts getting hella messy. I go back to my chase lounge, and I put my headphones in and I look up and Ash is breathing on me like "they're targeting me" and then I realize that Ricky is underneath of my chair handing me notes like "we haven't talked xoxo gossip girl" and I find out that it's coming down to either Sara or Ricky. Well I don't want that to happen, and everyone figures to "pit Sara and Ricky against each other" and I go to wash my face because I have to get this sunblock off and then Ricky comes over and is like "Dude so.... if you don't vote out Allison, your duo is going home." Because basically the tribe is a triangle, kinda like the color wheel, and the primary colors are Me, Jordan and Karen. Karen holds all the power this week and from what I'm gathering is that Karen doesn't want me to have power in this game. They're taking out Allison because she's a number for me and Jordan. So now, I start ugly crying. I can't control my breathing and Ricky shoves my buff in my mouth and is like IF YOU START FREAKING OUT KAREN WILL SEND SARA HOME. And Sara is TOO PURE to be voted out by this evil. Way way way too pure. So now, I have a plan. Jordan scratched my back, I'll scratch his. Karen may be "on my side" but the bitch ain't. So now I'm gonna do what Allison did in Hawaii and I'm gonna take Karen out because she isn't taking me to the end. Karen does not have my best interest in mind, and neither do these other people, so now my only concern is keeping the people here who will keep me safe. There's still a chance I could get votes tonight. But let's pray that Sara and I make it through. Next round, I need both Andrew and Sara here with me. 

Well An easy vote is never bad But I am hoping stir chaos with this vote ?

So we may or may jot be blindsiding Allison this round and I'm lowkey so hyped because she's the biggest threat left in my onion. This merge is just going to go downhill from here huh. Kms

I'm so emotionally exhausted I'll make a confessional about everything that happened today in the morning. Even if I'm not still in the game

Confessional: I've had the worst day. I'm tired. I'm exhausted. This game is not on my priority list. Apparently Sara is going home. At this point I'm just going off of what the pines says. Thankfully I don't think too many people know we are actually working together. I don't know what is going on in this game. I'm literally the goatiest because I just don't have the time to put forth effort into playing and I feel terrible because I'm literally the worst kind of castaway.

I'm dying fuck off monty

ok so last vote was easy and this vote shouldve been easy too but of course andrew had to win immunity, so now im trying to think of a happy medium for each side to vote. so basically i tell jp that sara would be our best option and that i would try to figure out what ricky and isaac are thinking. so i take a nice ass nap, i wake up and suddenly everyone is paniccin bc ricky told jp that he would vote ash or sara, then jp told ash that who told sara who told ricky. so i just like try to figure out how to make it seem like im votin certain ways for both sides. so as of rn jp allison ash think me ricky and isaac are all voting sara but me and ricky came up with a better plan to after allison bc at this point sara would be a better ally and we cant have jp have more power than he needs :~)

Ep. 8 - “A Big Boy Confessional” - Ricky (Merge)

So we merged last night. Without Gage. Wanna know why? Because crackhead Shae freaked out and made himself a target while saving himself again. Like why do people wanna keep Shae around? He has a terrible social game, and if he keeps bringing up how he has no friends I'll fucking kick his ass. I tried being friendly with him, and then he told me I couldn't follow his Instagram because it's "not gonna happen" and then shoved it down my throat that Brian and him flirted and I'm like OK BITCH WANNA PLAY THAT GAME. YOURE GOING DOWN. No one gets between me and my (ex) man. Especially not some crackhead flop. And I had to fucking watch what I said because Shae is gonna use everything he can to stay. We'll surprise bitch, I'm the queen of this series and the queen stays the queen so sit the fuck down. Jordan was/is still public enemy number one. But Karen fucking leaked the plan to throw the challenge to him so!!! Good job ya flop! Why do people think that working with Jordan will work? It never does. It just makes you a target. Ash? Ash will be gone so soon because she didn't wanna play with gage and chose Jordan over him. Allison is just a target in her own, but being associated with Jordan doesn't help. And now Karen wants to keep him around longer than Carson and Andrew????? BYE YALL ARE SO DUMB. HES ONE AND THEYRE TWO. Get it together people!! If you align with Jordan Pines, you're asking to lose. That's all I'm gonna say. 

Okay right. Here's a big boy confessional and my stance on the game. Right now, I believe it's very up in the air. I think anyone and any side can take this, because sides have not yet been determined. No one really knows who's working with who, we have an idea, but no one is certain. For right now I know Billy HATES shea. Like a lot. Which isn't good bc I want to work with shea. Isaac finds the duo of Carson/Andrew threatening, which makes sense, but I just don't want Carson to be the victim of Andrew's target. My biggest threat right now is Allison. She's the only one I played closely with in Hawaii, she knows my game inside and out, and she knows exactly how dangerous I can be. On the flip side, she got just as far as I did in Hawaii, and then came back and WON Malibu. I'm not the biggest threat here when there are people like Andrew and Allison, who've gone far every time. Right now I'd say the main group of people Intrust are Billy, Karen, Isaac, and Sara. Ideally, I'd like to get to the end with Billy, because he's not a talker, and I've been to my fair share of Tribal Councils, and I know my flaws and faults. I'm going to be ruthless, and I'm going to make calculated game moves. I don't want to let my emotions get the best of me. and I don't want to hastily target people bc they furthered their games by taking out Gage. So I'm going to talk to Andrew and Allison and Shea, and I'm going to get on their good side, and I'm going to try my best to make them see I'm not this monster they're thinking I am. Well I mean, I am. But, I don't want them to know that lol.

I'd like to brush off my shoulders, because I 100% could have won this immunity if I wanted to. Which would have meant another round of safety for me. HOWEVER I haven't been involved in any tribal councils so far. And being out of the loop is not fun and I honestly can't take it anymore. This feeling of being left out was making me super uncomfortable, and other things surrounding my place in this game were just signs that told me I should go to tribal tonight. It should be a safe vote, Carson asked to be voted out. And if anyone doesn't do that they're just gonna isolate themselves. Plus I dyed my roots and self tanned this week and I'll be damned if I don't get a google hangout to show everyone how island hot I got. Ricky fluxes between being my closest ally and being someone who I don't see this working with. He keeps telling me not to do this not to do that, but the things I can't do are things that only benefit him, and not things that benefit us both. He told me that if I won immunity Sara or him would go home. I don't think he understands that he isn't on anyone's radar and that this isn't Hawaii. We're playing a whole new game and things have to change. I'm not here to play for Ricky, I'm here to play for me. I told him how he'll have to swallow his pride and work with Andrew and he's like "don't say my name to anyone" LIKE BITCH IM TAKING THAT NO EXISTENT TARGET EVEN MORE OFF YOUR BACK. Then he tells me that we can't really group call together because it'll make it obvious that we're working together and I'm sitting here like *Ariana Grande no correlation graph.jpg* because EVERYONE knows that Ricky and I are close outside of this game, and if they think he's not working with me in some kinda way they're wrong. But I just have a REALLY bad feeling in the pit of my makeup bag that Ricky is gonna fuck me over this game. I can tell. I just sense it. If he doesn't, and I'm reading too much into it then oh well, but the way he has this attitude when we talk makes me SUPER nervous about moving forward with him. It's almost like he finds me as a liability to his game, and honestly? I've taken the target off of his back whether he wants to believe it or not. Because he could have left and I convinced everyone in the early stages of the game that he is not Hawaii Ricky without his friends. And now that Kait, Christine and Gage are gone, he doesn't have the same cutthroat people as he did before. Sara and I still have it good. And the best part about all of this? Andrew. Andrew's partner is leaving the game, Andrew is no longer emotionally invested. He knows Ricky, Karen and Isaac want him out and so he wants to work with me and Sara. But, and I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who knows, but Andrew has the idol. And he said he'd use it to keep any of us safe. I'm not gonna rely on that obviously, and I'm not gonna tell Sara that way she doesn't rely on it either. But it definitely helps that Andrew's friends blatantly threw him under the bus and my "let's stay friends because we are friends" strategy is working. I love Andrew in and out of this game. It makes me so angry to see that he's a target because he has a good social game and always makes the end. Well? If I have anything to say about it Andrew will be making finale again, and it'll be with me and Sara. I've found my final 3. But I've just gotta be careful about who I target in what order. But Jordan and Shae are still my biggest threats. Then it's Karen/Ricky/Isaac. If we can split up Allison/Jordan, Allison will be with me 100%. She won't go to the other three because there's no point to. And then Ash is just kinda here. And while I want Ash to do well, I don't want someone who's playing the game for someone else to stick around. But if Ash wants to work with me moving forward, I'll do what I can to ensure Ash does well.

Ep. 7 “THROW. THE. CHALLENGE.” - Billy

I'm so shook that me Isaac and gage all made it out of there alive holy fuck. Luckily JP isn't mad and recognizes it's a game move but im honestly ready to suffer bring it to me montiford

Wow... WOW. I'm so glad I bought my ticket to Hawaii because it looks like we're here.from what I understand, this past Vote was UGLY. Like U G L Y. This whole thing apparently got so messy so fast and Gage apparently popped off on Jordan. Ash played herself, because she didn't vote with her duo and now everyone is being weary of Ash. But then... but then.. after these dumb fucks don't vote Jordan out at the last tribal (I mean I'm glad Christine is gone, and I'm not happy that Tyler is gone) but now we get the new twist of *Tribal Immunity* and Ricky and I hold hands and skip into the forest, kidnapped Isaac Sara and Karen and were like THROW. THE. CHALLENGE. It's clear Jordan doesn't have an idol, and no one has found the Okinawa idol because we don't have any clues. So Jordan is powerless if we throw the challenge and it's perfect just to get him out. But it's gonna draw lines in the sand, and trust me the only lines I'm drawing are the lines of Xanex I'll be snorting to keep my nerves straight. Because the ONLY person standing on the other side of this line...... is Allison.

Are you kidding? We tried throwing the challenge and couldn't even do it. And here I am again not going to tribal. At this point it just makes me mad. I don't wanna keep being safe. I wanna play the game. Because all escaping tribal is doing is putting a big fat rose gold target on my forhead. Ricky pointed out that "everyone knows you have connections and that won't slide for long" UHHH you mean the same connections everyone else has??? We're all one huge group of friends! So if they're gonna target me for that then that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard in all honesty. Because if they say they're gonna vote me out over connections, I'm gonna look at Ricky/Gage, Ricky/Karen, Carson/Isaac/Andrew, Sara/Gage, Gage/Ash/Ricky, Jordan/Allison. There's plenty of connections here, I'm just nice to everyone. And that's ONLY because I wanna make it to the end and get jury votes. Which at this point I know won't happen if I play nice. I have to LIE LIE LIE if I want to make it to the end in this situation. And pray to god that these assholes don't make this shit personal. 

Ok so we swapped into new tribes which I celebratin for a second before I realized that if we go to tribal it's gonna be a mess like big time. I won immunity last round with billy which sent the rest of the tribe to the war zone which is nice and all but those dummies decided that the best person to vote out from the other tribe is xtine????? It kinda pissed me off bc I knew she would've been a good ally for me. So they come back to the tribe and I talk to jp a little about the vote and how at this point in time I don't see the use of targeting him bc I kno we work well together. Immunity gets posted and billy makes a group with me Isaac sara and Ricky  and they tell me to join the call bc they had some "important" stuff to talk about and I immediately think that they're gonna want to throw the challenge. So I join and surprise surprise ! They wanna throw it bc they think jp is as of rn the most vulnerable bc he doesn't have an idol or anything. Obviously I agree to this stupid plan but I kno for a fact that if jp leaves then this tribe is in trouble if we go to tribal next round bc I'm pretty sure me and Isaac are at the bottom of that alliance or w/e, like it's literally two duos and Ricky in the middle and I wouldn't put it passed him to get Isaac voted out bc he was deadset on voting him before and that would leave me without my duo and an open spot for him to become my right hand man. Honestly those two are gonna be the death of me this game :/. So I tell jp that they're planning on throwing it bc honestly he's a good asset to my game and I tell him to go off on this challenge to which he literally does the entire lesson thing like this bitch is literally fluent in Esperanto now! Anyway so we win immunity and I can tell the others are kinda annoyed but o well bc I ain't playin ur game no more :~)

Okay fuck I'm not here to talk about the bullshit of last round. All I'm saying, is Carson needs to cover his god damn ass that he voted Isaac, I'm mad Christine went over Gage but Christine was also proving to be a lost cause to work with so meh, and I'm super fucking pissed Tyler went because I really wanted him as a number. And I know Isaac is low-key targeting me so while I would have been personally upset he lost a game, I wouldn't have been mad if it benefited me and made the target on my back a bit smaller. So anyway. My tribe is in the war zone. Myself and Carson, Ash and Gage, and then Allison separated from her duo and Shea all by his lonesome. I had to play major damage control with Shea because idk how much they trust me, and I need them to vote Gage. Allison wants Gage out bc she's on a revenge kick and I wanna use that to take him out. While I did wanna work closely with Ash and Gage as a duo, Gage has proven to be too sneaky PLUS I need Sara to not have him distracting her if I wanna work with her down the line PLUS PLUS he needs to be detached from both Ricky and Isaac separately. Isaac seems to think he has Gage in his back pocket which IDK ABOUT ALL DAT. And besides, Ricky showed he wouldn't vote out Gage last round. Also I'll get Jordan thinking he owes Carson and I, and it's always good to get favor with Allison. That duo may just end up being indebted to us. Now I just need to trust everyone votes Gage. If Allison and Shea flip, I will be pissed the fuck off. Carson has his pistol, and I have my idol. So if one of us goes, then fuck because I'd really not play something this round. On side notes, I'm trying to get close to Shea separately. Also if Gage goes tonight and I'm still here, I'm going to need to play some major damage control with Ash. NNNNNNNNNNNNN I swear if this vote goes south I'm gonna cry.

I can't believe Jordan Pines won that entire fucking challenge by himself..... I honestly am trying to stay in his good graces bc he's not a bad guy, and I'm not his biggest threat, and honestly I do like him, and I like working with him, I just have other loyalties to honor. I'm really hoping that Gage makes merge, and that we can reconnect, but I know that if we get together, we're gonna be a big target. But I'll stand by him no matter what, and I know he'll do the same.

Confessional: I feel so bad about voting out Gage, but like, he targeted my duo and I'm in a place where I can take him out because I don't trust him to work with me anymore. I'm honestly just ready to be done with this game. It's like Hawaii 2.0 and I already went through it once. Hopefully Gage won't take it personally though because I love him so much and this is purely a game move.

I feel like every tribal is a constant struggle for people me to convince people to not go for "the easy vote". Like every tribal someone is telling me "_____ Sees you as an easy vote." Today's tribal, Gage is gunning for me. I'm not surprised, Gage has shown himself to be a really messy player thus far. Right now, playing dumb has and continues to be my best asset. Acting shocked at tribal when something happens, talking too much, that kinda stuff makes people just not see me as what I am. I'm smarter than what people perceive me as, and if I can keep getting people to stray from "the easy vote" than I could go on to win this season. It's all about just continuing to hone my social game and downplay it. The great thing about my position is I don't have to gun for anyone, because while I sit here as the easy vote, people are going every which way to get out someone whose a threat to them. With Tyler gone, I'm not a threat to anyone, I'm the only one in the "easy vote, he'll vote with us he's got nobody" position, and I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Jordan motherfucking Pines just carried out whole tribe when we planned to throw it? And it's because Karen told him? Ugly. 

I hate this game so fucking much

EP. 6 - “Tonight, the Underdogs Will Strike Back” - Tyler (PT. 2)

Ricky said he'll only vote shea out which is like...why would we vote out a potential number going forward. I've gone with the will of the tribe up until now because that's what you do early on, but a merge is coming sooner rather than later and we need to actually start thinking. We're going to start running out of "easy votes" and if we keep just voting out outsiders to this friend group it'll be literally just all of us left and that'll end much uglier than if there were people like Tyler and Shea still there. It's just frustrating and if I have to not vote with ricky, then I won't vote with ricky. All's fair in love and the warzone

THE WARZONE IS A TERRIBLE PLACE.

Me coming into this game: can't wait to get clocked Me rn: watching everyone around me get clocked and not a single person saying my name even tho every single person is running to me http://prntscr.com/f01cmp  http://prntscr.com/f01cpb http://prntscr.com/f01csh http://prntscr.com/f01cx7 http://prntscr.com/f01d1d http://prntscr.com/f01d3y

This tribal is so confusing.

This is Hellwaii 2.0 huh. I can't put this mess into words right now! Like everyone's names are getting thrown out? I'm dead like I'm crying and I'm dead. Listen, a few rounds ago when Brian went I was like Andrew why don't we get rid of Christine and he was like "lol she's in my back pocket" and knowing Andrew wouldn't fucking listen to me I didn't push for her. THIS ROUND THE BINCH WENT AWF! She's gone Nuclear. Hell this whole tribe has gone Nuclear. Everyone is waiting to Explode. IM dead! Also Ricky and I seem to be together so that's nice. I've got a good relationship with a majority of that people so CHRISTINE CATCH ME OUTSIDE! I can't put my thots in order so I might as well just go tru!

FUCK YOU GAGE THATS WHAT I GOT TO SAY. You don't fuck with Jordan Pines and I thought I taught you that already. I showed you in izu don't fuck with me. I showed you in all stars don't fuck with me. And now I get to show you it again. Don't fuck with me. Tonight two things happen. Either I go home and this game gets a lil uglier. Or I am going to murder Gage. Isaac may or may not be a casualty but eh thems the breaks kid. Listen up and listen well gage. When you are reading this after you go home tongiht when confessionals go out let me give you some advice. Being a snake is good and all. But the thing about a snake is, they can slither around but at the end of the day they don't have a leg to stand on. Fuck you.

Wtf is happening Jordan and Gage fought Gage sent me something about Jordan and his dictatorship Except I have the whole conversation from Jordan So that doesn't make any sense Apparently Tyler and Isaac want me out Gage wants Christine gone Shea wants Gage gone Jordan wants Gage gone Christine is hoping it's Gage and not her I'm hoping it's anyone that isn't me I'm just going to vote for Tyler and see what happens

this sucks, I want to quit, there's no point to this game when clearly personal relationships dictate everything and that's bullshit. Highkey I just want this to be over with. Monty give me my PoTS award.

There's a lot I feel guilty for I feel guilty for Brian And if Gage leaves tonight I'll feel guilty for that too

If all this drama was for nothing and shea and Tyler end up going I'm gonna be a bit pressed. Ricky is like "I can't vote for Christine" like who the fuck are you gonna vote for next round. Jordan pines? That's fine but what happens when he goes. What are you going to do? Self vote?

Oh I have never been so excited for a tribal in my entire org life. Like??? Literally every name has been brought up. See, Gage wants Jordan to go, Ash wants Tyler to go, I want Isaac to go, Shea wants Ricky/Sara to go and Carson....well Carson's in the middle somewhere. But whose gonna get their way? Hopefully me because I have Shea and Carson on board. I have NEVER stood my ground on a vote like I have on this one. It's....almost empowering? Like I just want justice for Kait and Ricky can tell me Isaac's not the enemy all he wants but if someone doesn't talk to me and I hear they wanna target my duo and THEN ME? Like i'm sorry I'm not letting that stick around. Apparently Gage and Ash are sticking together and voting Tyler so if an Idol's played Jordan's safe which is good. Ricky and Tyler have told me my names come up so why not have some fun while I'm at it, you know? It's confusing cause Ricky's trying to change the vote back to Shea but like....if I'm in trouble can you please just vote for Gage instead of causing more worries asdfghjkl. But regardless It's pretty fun potentially having things go your way. Am I on a bit of a power trip? You bet! But I really don't care. Like if I learned anything from Mariana it's to trust my gut and take the risks I need and I could really care less if that's my downfall cause for once I can actually say I did something other than relying on my social game. 

Tonight, the underdogs will strike back.

[survivormidwayatoll]

Ep. 6 - “Tonight, the Underdogs Will Strike Back” - Tyler (Pt. 1)

Whelp, there goes Brian. It makes me a little sad, but he self voted do I can't be too upset about it. The tribes have swapped now and I'm back with Miss Sara. I think I'm in a good spot because I've thankfully gotten myself in a position where everyone on my tribe seemingly wants to work with me. So I just have to hope it stays that way. I'm making an alliance with Karen where it would be us, Isaac and Sara. But I also have Tyler. Then Jordan and I are trying to work together, but we'll see how that goes. Then there's Ricky, I KNOW ricky has a huge target on his back, and I'm going to try to have his back for as long as I can but if the Warzone is still in play there's only so much I can do. Because he's got more people against him than he knows. I can only do so much without making myself a target. ALSO. Jordan, Ricky and I are the only players to not have gone into the Warzone yet. So it's inevitable that one of us are going this round. Jordan? Comp beast, probably isn't going. Ricky? Somehow always escapes twists. Karen? Can be a comp beast, but is also unpredictable. Same with Sara. It'll just depend on how these comps go. I wanna avoid the Warzone as much as possible, I just wanna ensure my won safety so no "well Billy is a threat so let's get him out now" because I know DAMN WELL I'm thinking that about other people. Jordan is a HUGE THREAT and I want him gone as soon as possible, but I also would like you try working with him. Also Isaac? Time bomb. He's SO SMART it's scary. He knows how to manipulate and I'm not letting it get to me. He's gotta go soon too tbh. The Warzone changes people... I've noticed. The players who have been there are the most paranoid. Isaac and Karen are hella paranoid, so they need to know I'm with them... for now. If I have ricky I have Karen, which is why of Ricky leaves, I can't be a part of it. I some how escaped the Kait catastrophe, I don't wanna be here when Mt. Saint Rickens erupts. 

Well I've yet to watch tribal but it all werkedt out and Brian went home. Billy told me that he was like "all your friends are fake as fuck" yikes oops! Anyways I love this tribe and I hope we have tribal immunity now but the chance of that happening is very low. A gal can dream 

So Jordan pines came to me and was saying he's really nervous about being on this tribe and I'm like well is that justified? Yes. I'm trying to reassure him that ricky is more of the one on the outs which isn't necessarily true but I'm not about to tell Jordan Pines that this tribe would be prepared to vote him out. He's gotten like every single clue, from rewards and the warzone, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's just trying to make me feel like he's nervous to distract from him having an idol. This is one of the very few times he has been openly nervous to me and I'm feeling v eyes emoji

Jordan Pines: [12:38pm]idk if I’m in a good spot on this tribe tbh idk i have a bad feeling [me] I mean I thought that on my old tribe and I got through, I honestly think you're fine this tribe is 95% people in our friend group chat which is simultaneously the best and worst part of it Jordan Pines: [2:02pm] idk whats up I’m getting a weird vibe [me] tbh ricky is probably more on the outs here than you are but I understand your concern Jordan Pines: [2:03pm] i hope so Jordan Pines: [2:14pm] are we good to work together? like honestly i want to like have you thought about it at all [me] Yeah for sure, with the nature of the warzone I feel like alliances haven't gotten to be cemented at least for me, and it'd be really nice to know you're solid with someone Jordan Pines: [2:24pm] okay that makes me feel better [me] Yay I'm glad ! It makes me feel better too this is what i was talking about earlier like this is the most out of character game convo ive had with jordan pines. whether he's trying to throw me off or not im not working with him this game nope bye pas un chance adios. if the cold day in hell comes where he and i are both in the warzone, im going to make him feel as safe as possible while rallying up people i know for sure would vote with me to get him out, which includes billy, ricky, isaac, andrew, carson, christine, and probably gage if he's there without ash. am i looking too far into the future? yes! but at least im playing the game lmao!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

the fact that these lists are gonna be public I suddenly have to move to Iceland. like this is what my list is so far 1. Billy

I literally just did 1 list and submitted it without thinking about it because /someone/ has to be on the bottom I can't spend a million years playing politics of "who would be the most pissed to be at the bottom"

Being hated by your tribe makes me kinda emotional. These were all people I felt close to in a way, and for literally all but the 2 people I felt least close to putting me at the very bottom of their lists, that's shocking to the nerves. I'm at an incredibly rough and emotional point in my life. It sucks to feel like you're worthless, feel like you have nobody, and there's always a way for someone to validate that, even indirectly and without them knowing. How I feel in this game is kinda matching to how I feel in my life, Alone. I hope both of those things can change.

Sara? Does not deserve to be in the Warzone. Harold voice: so yeah, I guess you could say it's official. I'm officially the best. I haven't been to the Warzone yet and it's been 5 rounds. So that basically means I'm a god or something. In reality, this is the opposite of what I wanted. I should be there and Sara should be safe. I wasn't going home in the Warzone, but the good news is EVERY OTHER THREAT is there right now. So if Jordan, or Ricky or Christine or anyone else leaves, I'm safe from the backlash that would come from them leaving. It sucks I can't talk to Sara, but I know she'll do the best thing. #Beauties for life

MONTY

tbt to that time that is a castaway mutinied they'd get immunity till merge... ah better times

I'm going to scream and cry at the same time I got three first places and I'm still here. I am always fucking here. And this twist that we can only vote for other people on the other tribe I WANTED TO MAKE A BIG GAME MOVE FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE SO THAT PEOPLE WOULD MAYBE THINK IM NOT THAT SHIT AT SURVIVOR AND NOW I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

I'm pretty sure Jordan Pines has the Saipan idol. So hopefully this round he either flushes it, or gets voted out with it. 

What am i going to do about this vote nnnnnnn First of all this is a horrible twist bc the vote is narrowed down so much. Like I was hoping there would be just a group of us voting together so i wouldn't be a target, but the other people from my tribe aren't immediate threats. I know that unless i prove my loyalty to these people, they're going to take me out. My ideal plan right now is to target jordan pines, but if he has an idol i might have to do Isaac (?) I really don't want to have isaac as the back-up bc he finally came to me tonight for the first time since the kait vote, however I may not have a choice. Sara and Ricky have had my back since day one and Tyler is really close to Andrew. Technically, Isaac is the only one who's already wronged me so that would be my excuse to vote him out. I guess there was a silver lining to being blindsided. I also want to do Isaac because i noticed he's getting close to Ricky, and I need him to stay with me. I'm just worried that history will repeat itself and they get together and accidentally release Boot List Extended Edition™. Ricky is steering me away from voting Isaac, which is weird considering Ricky told me they didnt talk until tonight. Ricky also told me Jordan definitely has an idol, which he does not have unless allison gave it to him. Andrew has jordan's tribe idol. He's telling me this probably because he wants me to "flush out the idol" which i will not be doing whatsoever bc he doesnt have the idol! I'm praying Andrew isn't right about Ricky playing me... 

We swapped ! And I get to be w/ Gage which is a real blessing. If both of us can just survive tribal we'll be okay

Ep. 5 - “We Really Need to Play These Items Correctly” - Andrew

Well another tribal has come and gone, and my tribe is down another player. I'm PRAYING I pull one out with this challenge and manage to escape the Warzone this week. Because it's so unpredictable who's going, there's no way to ensure my safety. I submitted a list and I think my answers are a good mix of generic and odd, so that way not many people will guess the same answers as me. But all I can do is hope. I have a sneaky suspicion that we're going to swap into two tribes of seven after this vote. Which is good, because it'll mis things up a little. But it's also concerning, because I could see it then becoming "the seven lowest scorers" going into the Warzone. And that could be a whole tribe depending on who goes. Right now the only two people I'm comfortable voting out are Christine and Shae. Maybe Carson, but almost everyone else is someone who I'm hoping will wanna work with me. So I don't want to ruffle feathers. But I also have a bad feeling that if I go into the Warzone, everyone could just take me out for being a social threat. I understand that, and I see where they're coming from. But these people have to know by now I'm a loyal ally, and I'll work with them to the end, not push them behind me... well I won't push them, I'll shove them :) it is after all, every man for themselves. And I HAVE to keep telling myself this is a game, and my friendships with these people won't be affected by the game.

I JUST FOUND THE FUCKING SEIPAN IDOL IT WAS IN A TREE. AND NOT CARSON HAS HIS PISTOL AND I HAVE MY IDOL. But I'm holding both rn. I need to make sure Carson checks in a tree next time he can search. Because maybe it's the same every where? Idk. This is just wild and I'm shook. And we really need to play these items correctly.

Oh how I just loooove the warzone. You know what's better than going to the warzone? Finally figuring out the phrase for the idol! Only! To! Discover! NOTHING! IS! THERE! This is all gonna go downhill real quick and I'm not happy. At least I have Carson and Andrew to protect me and I think Ash is on my side now so if I can dig myself out of this mess I'll be happy...I'm gonna get idoled out mark my paranoid words.

ok so a brief run through of my current strategy: ~go to the warzone everytime-- I feel like its a huge advantage for me to go to the warzone, even though I'm always in jeopardy. It does a lot of things for my game like forcing me to create allies on other tribes, and building a solid case for tribal. One of the other benefits of this is that I'm keeping miss rickens safe. I've heard from Andrew consistently how people really aren't going to give him a chance to play this game. He plays a manipulative game, and people don't like that... so I figure why not keep him as an ally? If he does make the merge, he will always be targeted before someone like me, and he's also a number. I can lead votes, and people will believe he's behind it. Also he's just a really good friend and i enjoy his company :~) ~Build the foundation of a solid alliance at the warzone-- like I said earlier, this twist gives me the chance to work with people from other tribes, and people who I wouldn't normally work with in the first place. The warzone forces us to vote in blocs because the people we vote with are inconsistent. Its impossible to have a solid voting alliance, so your always having to talk to people. This has lead me to strong bonds with people like Sara, Christine, Brian, and Shea, all of which I want to keep safe as long as possible. Its not a matter of making it known that people are "in the alliance with me and these other people", its more of just proving loyalty to certain people and hope that they will want to work with me in the future. ~meat shields-- I literally hate this term because these people are more than just tools to use, but it makes it easier to reference. For me, these people are huge targets like Ricky, Kait (RIP QUEEN), Andrew (hehe), and Isaac. Its not like I want these people gone, in fact want to work with these people the most, its just that an extra benefit to our bond is that they'll be targeted before me. Even lesser targets like Brian and Shea qualify, as they are easy names to toss around because they have few solid allies. This is my bubble of protection; I'm not a major threat, but I'm also not an easy boot. ~keeping possible alliances intact-- this really just applies to the Kait boot. I honestly had no idea it was happening since Isaac and his army of clowns  refused to tell me. However it cause major distrust among people I need to be willing to work with one another. Because Isaac seemingly went behind our back, Ricky and Andrew are now hesitant to trust him... which is bad for me. Isaac currently isn't my first choice of allies, but he's a great player who is willing to make huge moves, possibly against us if we don't forgive him. Me feeling confident about my game? A concept! Pre-merge is usually when I thrive-- he small environments make it easier to talk to people. However I'm by no means a closer. I'm infamous for napping throughout the merge because so much happens, leaving me with no case at FTC. I'm definitely going to play that up to stay off people's radar, but I really want to do well this game! I know I have it in me to win one of these, or at least come close, but I always lose confidence when things don't go my way. That mindset is something I wish to grow out of.

guess who's back back again SARAS BACK IN THE WARZONE FOR THE THIRD GODDAMN TIME!!!!!!!!! shjdkekfjsjz why can't I be Jordan pines and be good at everything and never have to come here. Also last time I did the blind idol guess of "under a rock" because we didn't have a noun clue and I just went for it but guess what the noun is. It is indeed rock. I'm gonna scream if somebody already found it I've never had an idol in any game ever and I really want this one

I’m actually very scared for this round.  I have Sara and Isaac here and that’s it.  I hope that maybeee Carson isn’t upset because I then also have Carson and Andrew and Christine, but I think this really all relies on Isaac still wanting to work with me.  I’m scared because I do feel like I’m the outsider of this bunch, but maybe I’ll be perfectly fine and I have nothing to worry about it.  You better bet I’m going to put in the work to make sure it isn’t me, though.

So I'm in the war zone for my second time. It's myself and Carson, Ash and Gage, Isaac, Sara, Christine, and Brian. And I want to control this. I initially wanted Gage out, but Isaac insists he has Gage in his back pocket which boi? I really doubt that you do. Gage is such a sneaky player and we know where his true allegiances lie. Ash, Ricky, and Sara. Not you. Although I do see the logic in keeping Gage bc if we take him out, Allison will get super on edge and we need her to stay calm and be a number for us that doesn't step out of line. Essentially, Isaac wants Ash or Christine going. And that's a big not on my watch.gif because Christine will stay with Carson and I for right now, and she'll stay with Jordan Pines which regrettably at the moment is also an extension of staying with me because he's my closest ally on my home base tribe atm. So I can't let Christine go. And the thing is, I want to keep Ash because at some point I do wanna take out Gage. And when Gage is gone, I wanna culminate a good enough relationship with Ash where she'll hopefully stick by me. The thing is, I realized that Isaac has been running the war zone. He wanted Steven out? Steven's out. He wanted Kait out? Kait's out. He wanted Kelsey out when I was really pulling for Shea or Tyler to go? Kelsey's still out. And now I feel like he's gonna get his way again. And a part of me wants to see if I can take out Isaac, but realistically that will just cause fallout, and I don't want to turn on him pre-merge unprovoked. Am I worried he'll come for Carson and I? Yes. And the thing is, I feel like he can get the numbers. Gage and Ash would probs go with him, as would Brian. Which would leave Sara as a swing who I could hope I could convince to not vote Carson or myself. Idk. But point being, the southern belle is revvin up those friars to run this game. And idk how chill I am with that. So I'm gonna settle for Brian if I can help it and get Isaac on board. People seem to think Brian will do whatever Billy says, but no one seems to be paying attention to the fact that there is someone in this game who does actually take priority of Billy for Brian. And that's Tyler. And idk why people aren't seeing that, but Brian has two of the possibly strongest connections in the game rn in Tyler and Billy separately, and I want that severed. Especially because with Brian gone and be trying to build trust with Tyler, I could get Tyler on my side.  

So like it took a while for a name to come up probably because I'm close friends with almost everyone in the warzone this round and nobody wants to be the one to bring up a name. But eventually andrew brought up Brian's name as opposed to Christine's which....lowkey id rather have Christine out I think she's a much more threatening player than Brian. But if you think I'm about to try to flip the vote rn you're wrong my dude. I would rather have Brian around because I know he trusts me and he would vote with me but I don't feel like the rug would be swept from underneath me if he was gone so I'm just going with it, if that makes me a bad player idc, I'm not trying to go this tribal 

Also I don't remember if I've already made a confessional about this but someone has the damn idol like she's gone. The only person I know for sure doesn't have it is Brian because I asked and he said he didn't find it, and I feel like if one person would admit it to me it would be him. It's probably fucking Jordan pines WHO HASNT EVEN HAD TO COME TO THE WARZONE YET WHICH IS TO BE EXPECTED BUT I HAVE MY OWN PRIVATE SHELTER HERE À LA SOUTH PACIFIC OZZY

I'm only here to not get a strike because I'm at rehearsal but every time Gage is here I have a heart attack 

So now Isaac has confirmed that my name is going around and that scares me a lot.  I don't know who said it, but I hope I have the numbers to stay safe.  I have to navigate this situation carefully because if I start to target the wrong person, I could be even more fucked, but I want to make sure I make it through this round.  If so, I might be fine for awhile longer.  I should have at least Sara and Isaac working with me, but I still have to work on Andrew (who said he hadn't heard anything but kdsjhdajs) and Carson and make sure they work with me, too.  Ash and Gage might not want to work with me, but I'm not 10328309128% sure.  Maybe they're my best bet?  And Christine?  Again, not sure, but I hope Christine wants to work with me.  Someone threw out my name, though, and I need to get to the bottom of it.

Ahhh I'm so nervous I don't like this at all. I think I have the numbers to stay...And highkey it would be the most idiotic move to get rid of me since I'm pretty much a free agent at this point. I just.....Ugh. I don't wanna be a paranoid mess this season but I just don't have a good feeling about this. I know I have Carson and Andrew as they've pretty much adopted me into their duo, and supposedly we have Ash and Gage too but Ash scares me cause I know they were originally sketched out by me after they voted out Kait so I guess we'll see how things play out.

I'm super fucking worried this is gonna go south and people are flipping. I really hope Isaac, Sara, and Christine wouldn't flip. Idk about Ash and Gage but like, I really tried to solidify something between my duo and her's so let's really hope my social game pulled out today. Like, I'M THE ONE that got all that shit flipped on Brian. I went to Sara and Ash before it solidified with Gage, I solidified with Christine that Carson and I really wanna work with her, and I got to everyone before Isaac could. So I really hope this fucking pays off. If people flip and/or an idol is played that saves Brian I'm gonna fucking die. Like Brian could have an idol through his own tribe? Which really worries me. And I'm hoping Tyler wouldn't find one to send to Brian because I would THINK that's the Saipan Idol and I have that. Btw other reason I'll be pissed is because either I'll go out with an idol OR Carson will go out with the Rainbow Pistol. Got my anxiety levels are so fucking high rn please I just want Carson and I to be safe.

I really hate this twist. I want it to choke. Tonight I'm voting for Brian but I wouldn't be surprised if I go home tonight.

Ep. 4 - “Chill You’ve Only Missed One Round of the Warzone Freak” - Sara

DING DONG THE WITH IS DEAD. Ok, I don't mean, that I love her and I wish she wasn't so vocal about me not having power. But now... Kait is gone!! Yeaaahhh man! High key she was out for my blood and I'm totally fine with her being gone. She's a comp beast and a social threat and people like thhat are hard to take out at merge. So this is awesome for me. Also, I haven't gotten any blood on my hands yet, and I won this challenge in Rakiura, and I plan on doing it again. So I'm just doing what I can to avoid the Warzone. It sucks because I won't be making connections, but safety is better for the time being. I'd rather be safe and out of the loop, than a target with allies. Which brings me to my text point, being a target by winning challenges. That's EXACTLY why Kait was taken out, so I can't let the same fate come of me. I'm eventually going to have to go into the Warzone, but I'll do it after I see who submits and then I'll throw the challenge to get numbers. I wouldn't wanna have to mess my hair up while I'm in danger, so I might as well keep an entourage with me. I just have to really learn how to use this twist to my advantage. Isaac is getting a lot of blood on his hands right now, which is both beneficial to my game, and also not good at all. He's mentally not here for all of that, and if we keep sending him into the Warzone he'll burn out. So he'll either explode, or get voted off. But he's taking threats out for me, and I'm ok with it. But I want him safe for now. Allison seems to as well. Gage is just kinda there for me right now.... I have no idea where hes actually at. And Kelsey and Shae? Actual crackheads. What the fuck is going on with them? ACTUAL. CRACKHEADS. That's what. 

OH WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN FRIENDS??? Whew first of all I'm officially on a Witch Hunt for everyone that attended that tribal (except for Carson he can stay) but WHEW. Shea and Kelsey can stop with their fake drama like it's enough. I literally had to sit through a call with Shea and how distraught they were and it's just.....I don't buy it. I really don't. Especially if your gonna sit there and tell me you had no idea my duo was going and that my duo had no idea either like, I think I know my duo thanks. Then there's Tyler whose acting clueless that kait was even my duo and that he has absolutely know idea what happened. Like, do you really think that's gonna help??? I just hate fake people, I hate people who treat me like I'm a complete idiot. I'm not taking it! Not this season. I know if I go to the warzone I'm gonna be a Target so I'm gonna avoid it like the plague. My only Ally at this point is Jordan Pines and so if that ain't a sign that I'm on a death wish I don't know what is. But yeah anyway, #JusticeForKait will be served and these people are gonna realize they messed with the wrong black widows.

I don't even know what to say except what the fuck?

Last nights tribal just shows how out of the loop you are when you're not in the warzone I guess. I was thinking of throwing immunity for a solid 10 minutes and then I was like "chill you've only missed one round of the warzone freak @myself". Tribes who go on long immunity streaks miss game dynamic changes too. I'm just thinking too hard about it bc I want to have all the info in order to make the right moves but I just gotta remind myself that most of the time that's not feasible. 

I'm like the saddest 8 year old ever right now. The game of Survivor has so many layers, There's the social and physical aspects, the strategic aspect, but now with this particular season, there's the synergy aspect. Last night I tried to vote off my partner, yet it seems people were shocked by that move so a few people flipped and voted off Kait, which I was sad with because I really liked Kait. Kelsey set me off and I ended up outing him as a catfish, it just was eating at me. People were surprised I wanted Kelsey out but, I couldn't trust her. We don't have a partner dynamic like everyone else, we haven't been close friends for a long time. I thought I didn't know Kelsey before, but now I really don't know him. Apparently other people do, and Kelsey sent me this long paragraph about how he has leukemia and how this game means a lot to him. I don't know how much of that is true, if it is, I truly dearly from the bottom of my heart feel bad for him, but I just don't know if he is being genuine. He hasn't before, why would he start now. I don't want to go to tribal again, but it's likely i will. 

I'm completely crushed to be going back to the war zone. I feel like no matter what I do I'm gonna land here, It's so tiring. I'm back in that helpless feeling I felt last season, where there was a majority alliance closing in and there was nothing I could do. Ironically, I like the people on my tribe, but that doesn't matter. My closest allies in this game (Christine and Jordan) don't ever come to the war zone with me, and I'm left to fend for myself. I was put on a tribe full of strong physical players who I can't compete with in challenges. If this were a regular game, we'd probably never lose a challenge, but in a situation like this it's a nightmare. I'm going back to the war zone tonight where I'm going to, again, be lied to by some huge friend alliance Jordan says exists, and I'm probably going home 3rd tribal council, again, and thats really depressing. I'm sad to be in this position but there's nothing I can do. The only way I see myself staying is if people are actively gunning for a threat. I'm weak in challenges, I don't trust my duo, I'm easy to manipulate and a complete free vote, but people might not want to take advantage of that.

Remember what I said earlier about wanting to go to the warzone so I wouldn't feel out of the loop? Well here I am and I'm still out of the loop!! I hope it's just because it's noon on a Tuesday and people are at school/at work but I'd like to know what the vote is sooner rather than later. At this point I'd rather just take the easy vote and send Kelsey home because the first two votes were arguably uh...not the easy votes. Kait needed to go but I want that to be the only major blindside for the next few rounds but we all know that ain't happening 

I DONT KNOW WHERE I STAND IN THIS GAME BECAUSE I HAVENT HAD TO ACTUALLY PLAY YET. I'm really proud of myself for coming thru in these challenges, but it really limits the way I usually play, which is very social. I get stuck with 2-3 people every round, and like i get bored. I want a swap tbh. I really really really want to play with Billy. He'll keep me safe (or i hope so) I just really don't want to go into the warzone esp with people like Isaac there. But bet my ass I'm gonna fight to stay if I have to.

I don't know what is going on tonight and I'm highkey freaking out. Yes - the person who wants me out of the game is gone, but that does nothing to ease my nerves. I'm coming in a someone who is known in this series, either for winning, POTS, Hellwai or hosting. There are few people who came into this game without knowing me or knowing of me. That's terrifying. Yeah - I have people and I don't think I'm going home this week, but I don't know how long I will be able to pull this off TBH. I don't see them letting me make merge if they're smart. It'll be the first PI game I haven't made jury in, but I can just feel it. 

kelsey is gettin votes yeah

It aint a real TC if Kelsey and Shea aren't here! woo!

I have a lot of tea in a vid confessional I've yet to upload but basically Kait was killed and it SHOOKT up the game. And now my ass is in the war zone where I tried to get Shea killed but it might be Kelsey. But I've been lowkey worried it's Carson or myself because after Isaac went for Kait like that I'm worried like. The boy don't got anymore boundaries. I feel like he'll vote anyone. So I'll be sad if that happens and I go :') Especially because I have an IDOL. Well, technically a Rainbow Pistol. Which can become any of the super crazy color idols at random when played hehe. But I'm worried. Carson gave it to me to hold onto because he's not online so I'm gonna feel like shit if I'm voted out. I just have to hope I'm not getting fucked over!

Yes honey, back in town to shut it down and NOT receive a strike! XDDDD See you after this trial,  yes~? ;D

[survivormidwayatoll]

Ep. 3 - “I Said some Bullshit” - Isaac

Well... Steven is gone. Allison is mad. And nothing is going the way that I'm planning it. I still think I'm off the radar for now, but pulling the trigger on Steven was so dumb this early when he wasn't a threat. There are bigger fish to fry and the Warzone is the oil. These people aren't going to be smart about how this is gonna work, because this game dynamic has never been seen before. BUT Isaac wasn't smart by getting Steven out, our tribe is weaker now. And if we ever have to go to tribal as a tribe against another, it's easy to just hang up on us because we have less numbers. I'm just hoping that there's more people in this game that want me here than don't. So my first order of business is to take out the other people who could have power: Kait and Christine, and Shae and Kelsey. And if that means losing Ricky, I'm sorry bud. But I'm scared that you might now want me here anymore. 

I'm so happy that worked and that we got Steven out whew. I just hope it doesn't put me in an awkward spot with ricky but it doesn't seem like it right now. My options were: kill Brian and piss off my whole tribe basically, or kill Steven and possibly piss off ricky,, so I went with possibly pissing off ricky. I think I did ok on this challenge but we have some good challenge people on our tribe so I'm not getting comfortable

Well I'm glad I'm safe and everything but I literally have no idea what will happen at tribal in the warzone but I really feel like this tribal will be a turning point in the game you know? Like the power will really be defined

Y'know, it sucks to be the person to vote out their partner, but I'm campaigning hard against Kelsey. One comment can make all the difference, and calling me expendable? Inch resting. Let's see how expendable I am when Im voting your ass out. Kelsey's been a loose cannon from day 1, and tonight, I'm lighting the fuckin wick.

WOW.  So I stayed?  I'm still here?  Oh my... god... I truly TRULY flipped Shea and Kelsey at tribal... how iconique!  I'm honestly pretty happy with my game so far, and I hope to make it much farther in the game so I can make #BigMoves and do what's best for me to make it to the end.  I know going after Kait this round could be a good game move, but I think keeping Kelsey around with her flip-floppy ways could speak for potential disaster, so I'mma stick to the Kelsey vote unless otherwise told.

Kelsey is an icon. I will NEVER write her name down unless its to win this season. As a mater of fact, I don't even think this ORG is even worthy of having her presence. If I feel Kelsey is going home tonight, I will lay down my torch for her. The queen stays queen!

Whew alright, so everything went well at tribal and I'm still here so I'm happy. Right after tribal Shea pulled me and Jordan on call to talk about Kelsey which was hilarious. Honestly I really like Shea but I don't think I could ever trust them gamewise, you know? But I'm glad I'm not back in that warzone. Im a little worried about Kait since there are 3 duos there, but I'm sure she can work her magic or something.

So I honestly don't know where to begin. Last round I orchestrated Steven's elimination by telling Christine and Carson that he and Allison were going to be a powerful duo in this game and that went swimmingly. After the vote Allison was asking me what happened and I said some bullshit like Kait told Christine to vote out Steven because he was the next best thing to you, which was bullshit but because of Allison and Kait being after each other I knew that she'd believe it and I'm like 90% sure she did. Well I'm headed back into the warzone again and I'm going to try to get rid of Kait because Ricky and Kait are also a power duo but they're not each others' duo, you feel me? So I built a relationship with Gage and to an extension Ash before we came into the Warzone and we're on the same page about voting Kait out and Brian feels like he owes me after last tribal. But what has happened is Kelsey and Shea have made up this ploy to go against each other that most of us don't buy but we're going along with it because they're literally crackheads, but regardless it just made everything messier than it should be. Kait and Carson pulled me into an alliance with them and I'm also in an alliance with Gage, Ash, Brian, and Tyler (which is majority) and I'm spilling tea to the second alliance about Kait thinking Gage is sus and this is just way too complicated for the second vote of the season. Like I'm ready to throw up and I'm not ready for the fallout. ALSO I'M GETTING REALLY TIRED OF PEOPLE TALKING TO ME LIKE I'M STUPID JUST BECAUSE I'M YOUNGER THAN THEM! Lowkey though maybe it's an advantage. If I can act sweet that'll be great. I'm not the flower I'm the serpent under it tru!

Ep. 2 - “A Muffin with Blueberries” - Kelsey

So I'm here!  Midway Atoll, yay!!! Although I'm probably going to go pre-jury, I need to work my way into the groups.  I need to keep my social game up with the 5 other people on my tribe and do well in challenges to prove my worth in this game.  I also hope Tyler is able to do the same because I want us going far together, but ultimately this is a game with only one winner, and I want that winner to be me.  I don't care who I have to cut because I will cut anyone.  Nice guy Brian is gone; say hello to darksided Brian. Apparently, Kait, and by extension Christine, wants me gone because of my friendship with Billy.  Shea, and by extension Kelsey, probably wants me gone because we NEVER work well together.  Ash might want me gone because we didn't click well in Johto.  Jordan, Karen, and Isaac all probably want me gone because I'm not extremely willing to work with them, but I will if I need to. All-in-all, I have a lot working against me, but 

I figured out that I want to be the Pete of this season.  I wanna come in looking like the pretty face, but I want to actually be the biggest bitch on the island.  I wanna take control, and I want to rule with an iron fist, and if I pit my Abi (Ty) against my RC (Billy, to an extent, although he can maybe be my Artis), that's perfectly okay.  I.  Don't.  Care.

So after talking with Sara, I gotta say.... I think I might be royally fucked.  What I didn't come to the conclusion of was prior to my talk with Sara was that Ricky was apart of this trio with Karen and Kait.  Well that royally fucks me up.  Now I HAVE to make sure to have an idol or something because I know I could potentially go home if I don't find one.  I need that ANNNDDD I need to make sure to kill challenges so I never EVER have to go to tribal council.  AAANNNDD I also need to make sure that Carson wants to work with me.  100%, no questions asked.

Hello confessionals it's been a few days because I lost the link rip. firstable I can't exactly say this is the tribe of my dreams. everyone is awesome don't get me wrong! it's nothing against them personally it's just that there's already an alliance of ricky, kait and Karen with Carson lurking on the outskirts of that. I was freaking out and trying to figure out the scenarios and moves I could try to do to crack that alliance but then this glorious twist arrives. obviously that tribal will be a mess for the ages but it gives me more of a shot than I would have on just this tribe. and I may be safe idk? Ricky and I both haven't done a slide puzzle before in our lives but I got 10 minutes so i just hope that's enough. And Carson asked if we should stick together if we both go to the warzone and I'm like um yes. Im really glad he said that not just because of the immediate safety but if the 6 of us go to tribal next round one of my only hopes was flipping Carson and having him vote with me and Brian. that's all I see happening tbh like I cannot flip Karen it won't happen. I love ricky to death but I'm hesitant to believe that he would sacrifice his alliance with kait and Karen for me because that's obviously more numbers and more security for him. I'm still gonna keep my eyes and ears open though 

This twist? Living for it honestly. I thought my tribe was gonna be a mess because we're literally all friends, but then this twist swooped in and saved my ass from having to worry about any of that. Being separated from Sara isn't so bad, we can talk in our chat. But she lost the challenge. And now she's headed into the Warzone alone, and I'm praying that these idiots do something right and take out Shae or Christine. They're threats, and they're in the Warzone. But I know it's gonna be Brian or Steven who goes, and that makes me so mad. But, Little Miss Allison was lucky enough to get the idol clue and she shared the clue with me. And I plan on finding it. Because as long as Gage doesn't look for it, I think I should be able to find it before Allison or Gage. And hopefully Allison tells me if she finds it, because she needs me and I need her. Especially if Steven leaves this round. My only concern is Sara Brian and Steven making it. Idrc about the rest of them, but those three are definite allies for me. Brian and Sara for sure. Isaac is useful for now, but we'll see how long til he flips on me. 

I want to try to talk to Sara about voting Christine out. She's a computer threat, and a Kait warrior. And from what I understand Kait wants me out. (Or doesn't want me to have power or something idk. Either way, no) but regardless, I wanna try to convince Sara to somehow rally enough votes to get Christine out. Because if they're gonna target Steven, that weakens my tribe. And if we get to a point where two full tribes enter the Warzone then we're screwed. We won't have the numbers as a tribe. And I need to have the numbers, and right now Steven is a number for me. Same goes for Brian. And Sara and Karen and Isaac to an extent? I wanna see if I can somehow rope Shae and Kelsey in. They don't know any of us, so they need allies. And if I can scoop them up, they might just be billable enough to be meat shields for me. But we'll see how things go. I can only do so much at this moment in time. After I talk to Sara I'll have more of an understanding of the Warzone Dynamic. But hey, I made it pst the first vote. 

I LIVE. Well. For the moment. I love Ashley and Jose for straight up just like, striking out of the game. Although really Gage is the real MVP for somehow winning that third round for us. I talked to Andrew yesterday about challenge scores. The idea was that whichever one of us had the highest score would post that one and the other would post a low one. That way whichever one went to tribal wouldn't be seen as a challenge threat. Of course, I'm the one at tribal. Now we just have to hope this plan actually works out for me.

They say that love is a battlefield, but I have every one of these fuckers so I guess hate is a warzone. I got pitted against Puzzlemaster and resident evil crab Jordan Pines and Kelsey was up against his partner. Expectedly, we both lost, and here we are at the warzone. This twist is difficult to manage, especially someone like me who is very weak in challenges. It leaves us almost permanently in the "everyone-is-afraid-to-say-a-name" phase, which I hate. I'm lucky that Me and Kelsey both lost and we had that immediate connection with one another, and that connection is ideally going to make this plan work. Steven approached me and after talking we decided on a plan to have Saipan and Okinawa work together to vote off someone from Leyte, we decided on Brian because he just got to FTC in Johto and he's overall a threat, but mostly he's bad for my game. I hope this all works out, Tyler's gonna be upset if he loses Brian but he can get over it.

Hello dears it's everyone's favourite hero, me! So everyone is pretty dubious over my pairing with Ricky but let's be honest hellwaii would not have been what it was without us. We made that mess! Anyways I've tried to fit in as best I can and I'm doing okay I think. Of course I'm going to the first tribal because winning is not in my vocabulary. Everything is looking good so far though. I'll share that tea in a later confessional. I've connected with Billy a lot and have locked down him and Allison. Also I think I might be one Kelsey has been in contact with a lot so I've them locked down as a back up. Only one I'm dubious of on my own tribe is Isaac but I've tried to connect with Carson at the war zone so hopefully memers won't hate me this season.

I can't believed I'm going to be fucked round one.  Like I literally can't do ANYTHING.  I need to talk around and convince people to keep me safe because as of right now, I seem to be going.  I don't exactly know who wants me gone, buuut... Isaac told me that my names been coming up.

You know...I wasn't too sure about coming into this season while still being in Mariana's Trench but everything seems to be going well so I guess no harm done! I'm in love with my tribe although this twist makes things a little difficult...I'm shocked I flopped at the flag and I'm not particularly too happy about being in the warzone but I think I'll be ok. Me and Kait are pretty close with Andrew and Carson so I think as long as we stick together we'll be good. As far as I know the votes gonna be between Steven and Brian which I'm fine with. No matter what happens I'll think I'll be set, I just gotta make sure not to end up back here again.

Well this is just great there is nothing wrong with this im not mad to be here. Just kidding you thot. Anyway Brian's name was the first name thrown out which is to be expected but I don't wanna do that bc we're in similar positions on our tribe and I can use that to my advantage to keep him close. Isaac came to me about taking out Steven which is fine with me we just need to get the votes. Shea asked me who I heard that from and I'm really considering throwing Brian under the bus and I feel really bad but if Isaac gets that target on his back he'll go tonight. Plus it would seem reasonable that Brian would scramble to throw a name out because his name has been going around 

Ugh I'm in the middle now and I hate it bye. Shea is also in the middle but he told me he'd rather vote out Brian and it probably will end up coming down to me voting him out if I want to appease everyone right now

RITES OF PASSAGE (JURY)

Andrew

sorry for voting you out but it had to be done or my other potential allies like ash and sara and ricky could have potentially prioritized you over me and I’m strategically needy so ya ass had to go but ily <3

Ash

MY DUO. MY LOVE. You were a shady bitch sometimes you know that ? Honestly had I known you were getting blindsided I probably would've voted you too. But you're my best friend and I loved being your duo

Billy

Dude… wtf happened? I know what you can do, and I’ve seen how you can talk your way out of any situation. So how in the world did you get out this early? I’m sad that we didn’t get to play together sans being on a tribe (that meant nothing) together. But I’m glad we did get to play again.

Shea

I was so happy to see you go because it was you or me, and man, to see you walk out was just like validation, like LOOK AT THAT SHEA, YOU CAN DO SOMETHING IN THIS GAME! I'm sorry it had to be you but it was great to have the blindside of a strong veteran player under my belt. Love you!

I wish I could have stayed in a lot longer, but I’m proud of what i was able to accomplish. It was so much fun crushing dreams every round in the warzone like… Billy you missed out! I’m also glad I made some new friends WOOOOOO

#ItsAWarzoneItsAWarzone

Andrew

im not gonna get all sappy with ya but playing this game with you for the time that we did was kinda super awesome. we did THAT finding the pistol and idol and keeping them hidden from these shady mofos. I wanted to be chaotic duo with you so bad but I’m hoping we get another chance in the future. getting to finally play a duos season with you was super fuckin awesome and i couldn’t have asked for anything more, but we will co-win our next season <3 giraffes RISE

Ash

I'm not gonna lie I don't remember why we voted you out and I also don't remember if I even went to that tribal so sorry

Billy

Awe, this was our chance! My Malibuddy! We were FINALLY going to play together and actually do the thing, but divine intervention took a turn for the worst. Another time I guess, keep being cool bud.

Shea

I'm very sorry for how you had to leave this game, I got filled in on the circumstances and it was probably the only time in this game I was actually emotional, because I felt for you. I hope you're doing better.

Andrew

rip i wasn’t even there but i aint gonna lie I’m glad you were severed from jordan. was i hoping it would be jordan and not you? yes! was i mad y’all got separated anyway. no! but you did get done dirty tru. ily wife <3

Ash

your blindside hurt. A lot. That was when the game really fell apart for me. I did manage to pick up the pieces but your presence was severely missed

Billy

I love you as a person, everything about you is everything I look for in a friend. I’m glad we have each other, and I was so excited that we finally got cast in a PI season where we had the possibility to play together the whole time. I think lines were drawn pretty early, and you and I fell into a weird cross area, and unfortunately, others saw you as a bigger threat than I saw you and they pulled the trigger while I watched. I’m not so innocent, as I consciously helped, but it was not something I ever want to do again, and I hope you understand why I did what I did, even though it was just a vote.

Shea

I love and adore you, I had such a strong connection with you on a personal level and I was so pissed when you got voted off. I hope you're doing well, love you girl, and I can't wait for this game to end so we can TALK MORE and I won't feel like I'll get in trouble

Andrew

i know you had to leave for your own reasons and you know we all respected that <3 you’re amazing and ily and I’m glad we got to align for the time that we did. you’re a star and amazing and deserve the world and if there was one thing that brought this cast together for even a second, it was all of us coming together to show our love and support for you <3

Ash

I love you and I'm beyond glad that you seem to be doing okay

Billy

I don’t have words for how amazing you are. I wouldn’t have asked to have played Dynamic Duos ™ with anyone else, from any other game I had ever played. You’re my best friend, and you’re AMAZING at Survivor and you were making it to the end of this game. There weren’t many people who didn’t want that, and the people who did want you gone would not have gotten past your friends. Had situations not been the way they were (which come first, and you’re so strong and amazing and I love you), you would still be here. Know that. I love you with all of my heart, and I’m so glad that we have a PI legacy together that’s not only iconic, but it’s ours. <3

Shea

Again, really sorry for how you had to leave the game. You were a super nice person to talk to and get to know and I hope you're doing better.

Andrew

GOODBYE SPONGEBOB GOODBYE GOODBYE ngl that blindside where you had an idol in your pocket was WILD but you were playing a really good game that wasn’t even that messy so you were a major contender to win if you got to the end at that point. sorry friend but JORDO OUT!

Ash

Practically my other duo. Thank you so much for being my closest ally throughout the game as well as my closest friend

Billy

You and I had a very similar pre-merge situation. We both didn’t really have to do much, and we were never really in danger pre-merge. While I would have enjoyed working with you, because we found that you and I work well together sometimes, it was apparent our games didn’t match up. I appreciated you keeping me safe, but the problem was there was no trust between us. You were still lying to me (poorly may I add, lol) and I knew that while you had kept me safe the times you did, and I tried to as well, you would have turned on that deal faster than intended. I’m sorry, and ONE DAY we will work together in PI. But you have to trust me for me to trust you…

Shea

I was surprised that you went home, and despite my immediate reaction, It was a good thing for my game because you didn't have my best interest in mind. You're way smarter than people give you credit for and I really enjoyed gaining a friendship in you during this game.

Andrew

THATS WHAT YOU GET FOR PLOTTING AGAINST ME AND THE QUEEN STAYS QUEEN

Ash

You're lovely and I apologize for your blindside

Billy

Karen I love you, you know that. I had your back, and you know that. Until a little birdie told me that you wanted JP in this game and sold out your friends for seemingly no reason. I knew you were coming for me the round you left (and I truly am sorry we didn’t get to talk, I actually was at the movies seeing GOTG2) But I know once your mind is made, especially when Ricky wasn’t there to help talk to you, I knew that once you were set on me leaving, I was leaving unless I targeted you. But outside of the game, you’re absolutely one of my favorite people ever.

Shea

I'm sorry how your vote went down, unfortunately the cycle I really started getting close to you was the cycle where you had to go. I didn't intend it to be like that, I just knew I rather you go than Billy and had to push for that because I didn't think I could ever beat you in the end.

Andrew

okay so i can’t believe I’m saying this but WE ACTUALLY WORKED TOGETHER FOR A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF TIME ! ever since carson had gone i knew you had my back, but the thing was i don’t think you ever believed i had your’s? seeing as you’re gonna see these after the season, i will say first thing that your suspicions were incorrect. i wish you had trusted me more and i am sorry for flipping the vote on you, but you was a threat.png. i am glad we got to play together again tho and ily <3

Ash

I cannot express how much I hated voting you out. Like, people can vouch. I actually cried. You're so so wonderful and I wish we hadn't been on opposite sides

Billy

Your elimination wasn’t even remotely something I saw coming. When you initially thought you were leaving, you weren’t and I knew that. I didn’t want you scrambling and potentially ruining your chance. But a the rainbow idol bitch slapped you and it was out of left field. I was so glad we got to finally play together, and play as close as we actually got to play. I think it’s good that some of our more “one sided” friendships (Like Kait and Brian) went out early, because it made sure that we stuck with us and not with others. Ilysm, and I’m so so so glad that we finally got our time together.

Shea

You're the reason I'm sitting here, You pushed for me to get on this season and there was a lot of pressure I put on myself, because I didn't want to let myself down but I also didn't want to let you down. We didn't work together, we just couldn't unfortunately, and I knew I wanted you gone and the moment that idol got played and it turned out to be Rose Quartz, I was overjoyed. I'm sorry you had to go out like that, but you had the most twisted tribal I've ever seen and that will never be forgotten. I hope I didn't let you down.

Andrew

WELL FUCK. this is the one thats the saddest and the one that i hate the most. i know we’ve talked everything out so I’m not gonna repeat the super emotional baggage here. you know that i love you to the moon and back and you know that i wanna see you succeed but this game got a really messy blurred line when i heard you wouldnt have minded seeing me go. writing your name down to eliminate was a really surreal experience i hope i never have to feel again. but i am glad our friendship is surviving through this. if a survivor game ever ruined a friendship as good and valued as this one for me i probably wouldnt be able to live with myself knowing i lost someone like you in my life. love ya dood <3

Ash

Honestly I love you and I'm not sure why I was so terrible at talking to you but oh well ! That's what hoenn is for !!

Billy

Our relationship this time was much different than the one in Johto. We were together, on the same tribe, (do the first couple days in the Warzone count?) and playing together from the very first day. I knew what you were thinking (at least I hope I do) for most of the game, and I watched you play and AMAZING GAME. You ran the pre-merge, whether you think you did or not. That was YOUR Warzone, and everyone knew it. You are just as much of a social threat as the rest of us were, because until the last round (The ugliest round) I don’t think anyone saw you as that big of a target. You had a solid alliance, with various people that wanted each other out over you. Which was smart. You knew what to say to what people to pit them against each other and it was an amazing strategy. I solidly believe that you were winning this game. It’s unfortunate that the round you left was a knife fight, and I know we’re good. But I can’t feel bad about writing your name down, when I gave you another option and you still wrote mine down. Nonetheless, I’m so fortunate to have watched you evolve from Rakiura to here. You’re such a great player, and one of my favorite people outside of the game.

Shea

Ep. 1 - “I Think They’re Dead” - Sara

Jordan Pines did that!!

IM SHELLI POOLE TICKED OFF RN DDDX IM SO UPSET!!! I have never in my entire short lived career considered myself a weaker player in the competition end of things. I get I'm not on the top but I can't believe that I've placed in the bottom three teams. I mean, it feels KIND OF good to have the better score of the duo, but when you're in a fight for last, does it really matter who fought harder? This is infuriating. I did not COME here to be a flop, I'm Kay Mikae, and I didn't come to play, I came to slay. This...this is NOT slaying in the least. I'm so frustrated with myself. I hate that there's a chance I could be letting Shay down in this, it's the last thing I wanted to do. In Mariana, I definitely did have to fight for myself a whole long time in the competition but this time around I've got to do it with someone else depending on me. Shay's TORCH is on my back and I just feel so...so irritated with myself that I'm letting it get this close to being put out. Whatever this next challenge is, I'm gonna smash. Ain't NO ONE getting the best of Kelsey Mikaelson, not this way!

Kait telling me that I shouldn't play Billy's game when she doesn't realize that Billy is the most beneficial person to my game I will not let Kait steam roll me I'm nice. But I'm NOT a puppet and don't sit there and talk to me like I don't know what I'm doing I can tear her down just as much as I can help her and she doesn't realize that

Every time I end a season I go out saying I'm never playing again. Here I am again. Back on the beach. Back in these shoes. I'm here with one goal in mind, to finally win. When I saw the cast, I wasn't all the concerned. I don't see anyone who sees me as an immediate target. Me or Sara for that matter. We actually seem to be people who everyone wants to work with. The first rumor is that the game is gonna split over who wants Ricky our first and who wants Jordan out first. But we've established that Ricky isn't going anywhere. I'm glad ricky is here, he will always be a bigger target than me. And I know he has my back. What I'm nervous about is the people associated with Ricky. Kait already wants people who will keep me safe out of this game. Like Kait, don't do it. I'll take out Christine and you know I will. Right now the people who I don't wanna move forward with are: Ashley and Jose, Shae and Kelsey, Christine and Jordan Pines. Allison will ensure I'm safe. Brian and Tyler will NEVER turn on me. Gage and Ash will stick with me, ricky and Sara because that's who they are. But don't think I'm not ready to cut Gage when I have the chance. Kait can't make merge. She can't. I love her but she can't. Same with Steven, but LBR Steven won't make it that far. Isaac and Karen are gonna fight to get Brian and Jordan out. Brian and Tyler are gonna fight to get Allison out. And then that leaves Carson and Andrew. I love them, but Andrew has gotta go sooner than later. Especially if he's on board to take out my allies. But at the same time, it's not taking me out. It's taking my friends out. So if I keep that "anyone but me" mentality, then I should be fine. Here's to hoping Sara and I can crush this. She deserves FTC even if I don't make it. And I'll do what I can to get her there. 

Confessional link: out Me: whet Okay so I'm actually gonna do a cast assessment for the first time ever! Iconic show stopping never been done before. I'll do it by pairs Allison & Jordan: Allison is my mom but I made a mental promise to myself before this game that I will not work with jordan pines with the exception of like a voting block for a few votes. The tea on the street is that he's a target though so that's completely fine with me I just hope that voting him out won't completely eliminate my chances of working with Allison Ash & Gage: My Izu children. I love them so much and I hope that they are in the game long enough for Billy and I to work with them long term Billy & Sara: That me. Ricky & Steven: I haven't played with Steven since literally Izu so like I don't remember how he plays so we will see (TM). I love ricky with all m'heart but I've heard he's a mess to play with so like...we will have to see where that takes us Ashley & Jose: I think they're dead Brian & Tyler: could be viable allies for me and Billy but brian was uh a lot during johto so I will be prepared to cut him loose if he ends up as a perpetrator of drama again Andrew & Carson: This is the first time I've been in a game with andrew since we've really become close and I'm so excited to play with him ! Carson is currently ded but hopefully he's back soon Isaac & Karen: THE crackt villain queens. Their combined strategy while cracked seemed to work pretty well for them in johto so I would like to align with them tru. Isaac also tipped me and billy off to kait being scared of us which is scary but also a bit of a compliment since the adjective associated with me usually starts with g and ends with oat Kelsey & Shea: Shea seems fun and cool but kelsey just appeared from the shadows last night so like wyd Christine & Kait: the duo I'm the most scared of if we're being honest! i know kait is a super good and cutthroat player and like i said isaac told me she's scared of me and billy taking over so i'm like gtg

PLAYER OF THE SEASON

Tied for 5th place are

We should all give credit where credit is due. Even if you didn’t like the games they played, both runners-up dominated. Andrew, like a few influential runners-up before him, held, at one tribal, three different idols. Billy made history this season and became the first person in PI to make the merge without attending tribal council. Both had their missteps, but they knew how to turn the game so it played to their strengths, and made themselves two of the most influential players to hit the merge this season.

In 4th place

Carson was set up to go very far into the game. He had allies lined up, was the less targeted of his duo, and had access to an idol and the Rainbow Roulette Pistol. He kept himself in the dynamic of the game by attending every tribal council, and kept the target off his back, and his name off parchments up until he asked to be voted out due to personal reasons. Had the game occurred at a different time, he was set up well to go deep, and have a shot at winning.

In 3rd place

The premerge was undoubtedly Isaac’s game. He adapted his game to the Warzone twist, and  orchestrated many of the numerous blindsides there. He always kept the Warzone moving the way he wanted, and voted in the majority of the complicated Warzone dynamics every round. He even voted in the majority or 9 of the 10 tribal councils he attended. He continued to prove that he is a strategic force to be reckoned with.

The runner-up

Sara came into this game with a lot to prove with her former label as a goat, and she proved it. She was rarely on people’s radar, and when her name was brought up, it was due to her being a threat. Both allies and enemies wanted her to succeed. Had it not been for external circumstances (we love you and are glad you’re doing better) she was set up to go deep into the game as a serious threat to win.

And the winner of player of the season is

Ricky came into this game with one of the largest targets on his back. Premerge he worked hard in challenges to keep himself safe. During the merge he used his incredible social game to advance his own agenda and set himself up to be in power several votes down the line. Had it not been for the Rose Quartz idol, he would have had a good shot at winning the game.

i just wanna say i wish i had gotten to play this game longer but there was no logistical way that i could do that. that being said i missed a lot of merge so im kind of in the dark as to who to vote for. i don't have a specific question but I'm gonna be closely reading everyone's speeches and responses. that's all I gotta say love you bye *walks through a wall*
