Hey lovely viewers! Just here on a Friday night, writing a confessional! ;p So. I had a strong feeling that Don would be the one going to exile last round and I am so happy that I was right. There is nothing more lethal than information. WELL. I found out what goes down on the exile Island and I now understand that catch phrase of the season a little more. It can go three ways. 1. They both decide to go for the idol and neither get it AND they do not get to vote the next tribal they go to. 2. Neither goes for the idol and they walk about from exile without an idol, but can still vote. 3. Only one goes for the idol, gets it, and the other leaves empty handed. Steffen told me about none of this which leads me to believe my gut instinct was right. He's telling someone information and that someone is not me. Hence, he can go. ALSO I found out that Elise did not go for the idol when she was at exile (if Elise was honest with Jenn), which means there is a good possibility that Steffen actually has it. It would make sense too because he has been talking to me less these past few days. Which is dumb as fuck. Yes you have the idol, yes you're comfortable, but do you want me to target you and force you to use it sooner rather than later? No. You make people feel comfortable so you can save that shit. Obviously. I also found out that Jenn had an alliance of 5 and Jeff and Jermaine turned on her and voted out Ben, when the target was Austin. Bummer on that one. So Jenn and Nick are at the bottom on that alliance and it seems like Michael and Austin are running that tribe. Don told Jenn to go for the idol so that she can save herself next tribal, which I understand because once a swap or merge happens we can get her and Nick on our side. However, it does suck that we couldn't get that idol for ourselves. I do understand his logic though so I can't be mad. OH and I found out that this idol twist resets EVERY TIME SOMEONE GOES TO EXILE. EVERY FREAKING TIME. WHICH MEANS, there could be multiple idols in the game come swap and/or merge. HOLY FUCK. I can't even register that. The last thing I need is to get out Cirie style! But ok. Let me grab a beer and calm down. Don and Teddy are the two I feel most comfortable with at this point in the game. Speak of the devils, they just called out alliance chat. My instincts have been pretty spot on so far in this game, so hopefully they are right about trusting Teddy. Don is telling Teddy all of the information now so let me go act surprised! Talk to ya later babes!

We have been practicing this tic tac toe/connect four style game for a couple hours now where you have a varying style of blue and red circles and squares. Some are open, some are closed, some are small, and some are large and you decide the shape for the opposing player and then they place it. There are several ways to get a connect four. Hopefully this is the challenge because my brain is tired just from practicing lmao

Damnnnn y'all we're definitely going to be going to tribal. We practiced so much yet the first two to go, Don and Teddy, lost their battles. You only have to win 4 to win the challenge so they only have to win 2 more. I'm facing Jenn so I'm hoping I can pull off a point so that I at least don't flop and hold my own. I'm worried if we go to tribal. Or should I say when we go to tribal lol. I know I'm being pessimistic but oh well. I know that I have Don and Teddy and there were others I thought that I had, but these last couple of days are making me realize I might not. Let's go back a little. SO. The Idol. I knew Steffen had it and the way that it came out was amazing. I was in my Three's Company alliance call (Teddy, Don, and I) and yes, Three's Company come at me IDC!  also they won't let me be Suzanne Somers which I am still salty about but whatever. Well we were in our call and were talking about the idol and Steffen most likely having it since we knew that Elise did not go for the idol. We decided to call the main chat and Don was talking about exile blah blah and Steffen said, "Oh, so the twist starts over every round??" Um Don said they tell you it resets so don't act like we are stupid. Well Don straight up asked about Steffen's time at exile and what happened with the idol and Steffen gets all uncomfortable and stumbles on his words and finally says ok I'm going to be honest with you guys, I have the idol. WELL NO SHIT SHERLOCK. Also during this whole conversation of Don and Teddy somewhat grilling Steffen, I decided to stay quiet because maybe they would be in the spotlight over me if we did go to tribal the next round. Unfortunately the only other person in the call at the time besides us was Sam, who tried to act surprised but it was clear that that was all it was, AN ACT. I wrote him like holy shit an idol this early and I could tell by his confused responses that he already knew. If I'm wrong, ok, but I don't think I am. Talk about the idol is going around in chats and everyone is acting surprised so I'm sure some didn't' know, but of course Steffen was going to tell certain people. I feel like Steffen, Sam, and Aren have something and I feel like Lizzie and Carley have something, I'm just not sure if they are actually all together. And then Mike, idk where Mike's head is at because he's barely ever around lol Don thinks he could get him on our side but the thing is, you need 5 votes. Not to mention the exile twist. The exile twist fucks everything up because if Teddy or I go, we are fucked. I don't think they'd send me to exile, especially if Michael is one of the people running that tribe. I think either Teddy, Carley, or Sam will go. Possibly even Lizzie. I'm very disappointed when it comes to Sam honestly. Of course I never fully trusted him but I still thought he'd be more honest with me. I tried to bring up the possibility of us going to tribal and he changed the subject to Maury and if that's not a red flag idk what the hell is lmao. SO to say I'm stressing would be an understatement. Just asked Aren if he wanted to practice because he goes in an hour and he said he's already practicing with Sam so even more confirmation they're close. The one good thing about Aren is that he's young and this is his first skype game, so he's more naive and honest than others. Welp. If we go to tribal I will just have to figure something out and then swap is coming soon so I just need to make it there. |

OH also Steffen is messy. He clearly gets flustered under pressure which can be a good thing. We have to make him scared and use that idol. If he had been smart he would have come back from exile and told everyone what the twist was, but say that he was scared Elise would go for the idol and he didn't want to lose his vote, so he didn't go for it. He also could have said after, Elise said she felt the same and didn't go for it. That way he is at least being somewhat honest and could have maybe avoided this whole idol drama and gotten some heat off of himself. OH and he said that this idol is to help the tribe... I hate when people say that. Like ok if this idol is for all of us, give it to me.  |

Y'ALL! So relieved right now that I won that battle against Jenn. They had 3 points and only needed one more so it came down to me to keep us in it and I was able to pull it out! It was 2 out of 3 and I won the first two. I'm the only person from my tribe to win so far so that does make me feel good but at the same time who knows if that would put a target on me. Plus both Don and Sam made it obvious we knew each other before this game started so I already know there is a target there. I don't know why these guys can't be quiet sigh. This is why women are smarter. Hopefully my name doesn't go around after this because I'd be pissed lmao. I definitely think even more now that they won't be sending me to exile. The next two to go HAVE to win or we are done and going to tribal.

P.s. I do think there is a chance she could have thrown it to me in the second round because it ended quite early with her giving me a big shape to make the four in a row. Either that or she honestly didn't notice it. It wouldn't have been the worst idea for her and Nick to try to throw this challenge because she has the idol and with the way we have been doing exile, it was obvious Nick would be sent next. They could have gotten Michael or Austin out. I do understand why she'd want to save the idol, but it wouldn't have been the worst for them to get out one of their rivals before swap.

OK so it's looking like the vote is Mike. Which is not good for my alliance. He is a number for OUR side and we need all the numbers we can get going against the group of Carley, Sam, Aren, Lizzie, and possibly Steffen. We have us three and Mike, which would tie it up, or if we could somehow get one more person we could have majority and get a big player out. However, it doesn't look like we can get one more so a tie could possibly be our only option if we were to decide to try to keep Mike. If we do this, that will cause a clear division in our group, which is not good when a swap is coming. On the other hand, if we lose next round, Sam has already thrown Don's name out as a possible target. Why is this bad for me? Because Don tells me EVERYTHING and he will never go against me. That is more than I can say for anyone else on this tribe, including Teddy. Teddy is of course scared to do anything because he is the one who gave us the info from Sam. I get that. He was invited to a call with that group so he of course would not be a target before Don, so why rock the boat? This is why. Teddy, yes you were invited to that group call, yes you were included in the discussion about what to do, but do you really think you're a main person in that group? No. Clearly there was already a group there and they included you to have another number for this vote. You are disposable. You will be the target after Don or I. SO. Do you vote with them and take the smooth sailing easy way and not cause any commotion, that is until it is your turn to go after they get their other targets out? Or do you try to better your game for the long run and make a move against this obvious, strong alliance and take a number from them and try to keep the numbers in your favor? This is a very, very tricky first vote and I am torn myself on which way to go. Do I put my neck on the line and sever my ties with people from the other side that I could work on, or do I just play along with this "tribe unity" and vote out a possible, strong ally? Yes it would work this round and I could still play along with the people I'm talking to from that side and make them believe I'm 100% with them so they would keep me around longer. I could try to keep the spotlight off of me. But that spotlight is already on Don and I know once he leaves it won't be long until I'm gone. But do I want conflict with people who could possibly be on my new swapped tribe? Like I said, it's a very tricky vote. Plus I know that Teddy is looking out for himself and is too scared to make a move. And then there is this idol dilemma. I'm honestly not sure why people are not trying harder to flush it. The ideal situation here is to put like 2 votes on someone (beating his one vote), and putting the rest on Steffen. That way if he uses the idol fine, that other person goes, and if he doesn't use it, he goes. That way we know for a fact the idol is gone. Teddy believes Steffen is in the middle and others are wary of him because of the idol, but I don't have that same belief. Knowing Sam, I'm sure Steffen is in his back pocket and that is why there isn't much talk about flushing the idol. If Steffen really didn't have anyone, people would be talking more about this idol and getting rid of it. Bottom line, Sam is running this tribe and I really need to take a hard look at what my best move is right now. Sorry this is so long! Love y'all!

Mike is being extremely messy right now which is odd. I never expected him to be a messy player. He's super smart and has won like 3,000 games so this is all just odd to me. What if Steffen is using the idol on him? What if this is all an act? Hopefully this is just my paranoia and sleep deprivation getting to me lol I just have a bad feeling right now. If I lose Teddy or Don I am fucked. Or watch my ass go out the door. Aren said in a group chat that they invited Teddy to, that I am clueless and have no clue what is going on and would probably even vote John Wilson. Totally would, but that's beside the point. But I loveeee it. Given the opportunity, OF COURSE I'm going to play the part of an airhead who is just happy to be here. That way they never see me coming. If you seem clueless and out of the loop, WEAK, people won't see you as a threat. Which I am.
WAIT MIKE JUST QUIT. I swear if tribal is not cancelled I am fucked. But this also means that Steffen still has the idol. DAMNITTTTTTT. I am just fucked lmao
Tribal needs to be cancelled and we need to win this next challenge. Point blank.
