They're Jealous And It's Not Okay/Confessionals

Day 11
"romeral"

- So Jones went home 5-0 as planned during tribal.

A couple note worthy things happened right before tribal

1)I transferred the idol to Elizabeth. This is because you never know what could happen at tribal, but I would have to be blindsided with an idol in my pocket. So I gave it to her because you can never be certain

2)I decided to tell the Alliance of Me/Liz/Jayme/Torsa/Matt/Callum about the Sotara idol being found. I know I had said I wouldn't tell them, but I wanted to give them one final chance to tell me about the Galeras idol. And you know what? They didn't....... so to me that proves they aren't as loyal to me as they claim to be. But I am trying to play dumb to them, and I think this helps my case. I can't believe they havent told me though.... like who do they think they are???

"romeral"

- Umm so forget to say, we have this GOD AWFUL CHALLENGE NOW..... i hate it... its SO UGLY

"romeral"

- I JUST REALIZED THE BANNER TO THIS PAGE IS A GIF??????? OMG CUTE

"galeras"

- So Jones is officially out of the game, which really sucks cuz I do love her. I get she didn't try pretty much at all and people have a right to be mad/annoyed over it, they should be, but idk, im just mostly disappointed and wish we could've slayed this game and been the flop cops we were meant to be. But ig it wasnt meant to be this time and ive already moped about it to everyone and anyone for a couple of days so now's the time I gotta pick up the pieces and move on, and focus on my own game

the challenge is 250 stairs of hell or something like that LMFAO its not too hard its just annoying, I think my tribe has a chance to win it, idk, its one of those challenges thats a little finnicky, all it takes is one big mistake or one fast typer to beat everyone.

Worst case, if we lose, I think im in an alright spot. everyones talked about sticking with me except kat, but kat's a single like me now and I think its pretty dumb to not focus on splitting up more of the pairs rn so it doesnt become like ""lets take out the rest of the singles at the merge"" yknow, so idk if taking her out rn is the best move for me. she's also chill af and funny, so even tho we dont talk a lot or about game I still like her

Rob and I have continued to bond rlly well, we did a deep dive on the game yesterday about who to vote off and who's the biggest snake LMFAOOO and alla that it was fun to just shoot the shit with someone about the game and I really enjoyed it. It made me trust him more and i do think he wants to work with me long term which is rlly cool

Loris is funny too, we dont talk a ton of game but I do think he wants to work with me for now, and he's also Brian's loved one and i LOVE brian SM so that could be iconic to work with the both of them. He seems a lil slippery like he could snake me, but i think for now its good to keep him here

that leaves my galeras ladies :'( i like them both, rn if we were going to tribal I think I'd push for Layla just cuz we dont talk a TON, although she is cool, and she also seems like a very smart and independent player who wouldnt hesitate to cut my throat in order to better her place in the game. Meanwhile, Elizabeth and i have talked a little more, and I feel she's a lot more loyal and that we have a stronger bond that will keep us together in the game. Theres no on here I really want out yet, but i do wanna protect elizabeth for sure which probably means Layla's gonna get the boot if we were to go to Tribal :/ nothings 100% though yet

whew that was a lot, ive also been bonding with some other ppl outside of Galeras 2.0 of course but i dont wanna make this TOOOOOOO long so maybe ill confess about the others later today, or never. we'll see :D lmfaoooo luv yalls lots xoxo - su

"galeras"

- If we lose Su said that he wants Layla out which is nice since I want to work with him but I'm worried since I barely talk to Kat and Loris said that Alex said she felt uneasy bc we never speak to her... but she never speaks to us so? I lowkey wanted Elizabeth out but Su seems to want to keep her and I'd rather have Su as an ally than Layla so I guess Layls' time is hopefully up if we lose.

"romeral"

- So I think I got a pretty good time in this challenge! Better than at least andreas so nice. I’m hoping we win but I could see these other twats throwing the challenge and if they are. Meh. But last night Andreas told me he found the location of the blue idol. But it had already been found. He showed me the message saying that it had been. For me, it obviously means one of two things. Either, he has it and asked for the same spot again to try and throw me off the scent of him having the idol. Or he’s being honest. He’s not lied to me this far that I know of. But I wanna keep an eye on him. Truthfully, I hate being in the situation I am in right now. I’m really trying my hardest to have the best one on one relationships with my tribe. But also trying to cover my basis with those on others. I’m thinking of the biggest threats later on that I don’t talk to a lot and it’s tough. I wanna make like a hit list and mark them off as I go along. I’ll probably expose that list later on. I’m just worried about getting through each day right now. We shall see

"romeral"

- Brian came to me and re-iterated to me that he wants to remain loyal to me, and just said again that he finds it difficult speaking with Jerry & Jake. I pretty much told him the same thing. If I could have it my way, Jake would be the next to go. I know that Jerry wants nothing to do with this so it could be interesting. I don't think I am scared to go 2-2 into that vote, primarily because Brian would be the one in the tiebreaker. And then in the 3 person tribal I could use the idol.

Elizabeth has the idol right now, and she just messaged me with her time which is 3 hours 50 minutes overall. My tribe right now has a time of a little under 3 hours so i know that we have immunity, but I'm not telling anyone just yet.

I also told Elizabeth that if she needs to use the idol, then to do it. I want to play this game with her, and I think having her around would be beneficial for my game!

"romeral"

- Okay I also just want to say how FAKE everyone is this season.... i messaged everyone on the galeras tribe back when they had tribal wishing them good luck. I got maybe 4???????? S N A K E S

"romeral"

- Holy shit I thought I ruined the challenge but thank God I didn't. Now we got a real shot to win immunity, and I don't have to worry about taking out Bryan. Everything else in the game is pretty low right now. I mean no one is really scrambling or anything. Layla is safe I hope because I know she was in trouble on Sotara. I really am excited to see how tribal lines come into play.

"romeral"

- Andreas and Bryan are both such good players that it makes them a threat. Bryan has been to every single tribal and only has 1 Self vote to show for it. The guy has a great game so far, now I know he may not be in a power position yet, but he might be soon. This is why I aligned myself with Jerry. The guy is busy ALOT, and it makes his social game weak. Also is his tentativeness to talk strategy with anyone helps me out alot. I really am his #1 ally at the moment. And that's the way we roll. Because this is my world, everyone else is just living in my world.

"romeral"

- Jones left us, unfortunately, and the vote was unanimous, so I’m kinda relieved. I didn’t mistrust my tribe, and it came out good for me, but that trust may be gone for this next vote. I have to be extremely careful if we go to tribal again because Andreas claims he’ll be with me, but the only person I can trust wholly is myself, soooo!!!!!

As for this challenge, I think it’s gonna be a rough one... I just hope I can put out for my tribe and show em why I’m good to have around. I ain’t no punk bitch, and I don’t slack in challenges. Point blank periodt.

"romeral"

- Gotta make this really brief BUT Jake messaged me out of the blue just asking my thoughts on Jerry. He did the exact same thing to Jerry about me and Brian... boy is SUS

Day 12
"galeras"

- Well here we are, back at my first tribal of the season after the stairs game. Can we talk about deja vu? I sat out of this one because I could see into the future that we were going to lose just like last time. I'm not actually psychic but I didn't want to play again and be disappointed for putting in all that effort for nothing. I just hope that I don't get voted out 2 times in a row after the stairs. I would die. As of right now me, Rob and Su are voting out Layla. Rob approached me about this vote which I am happy about because I had heard from others that Layla is dangerous. He just told me he thinks its going to be unanimous. I'm just hoping to sit back and relax tonight while this vote happens. I don't want to mix things up at my first tribal and screw things up. Afterall, I don't have an idol to fall back on this time.

"sotara"

- the immunity, it just continues wow, wow. very happy about that ofc and the galeras tribe going is perfect, idt any of the ppl i like are in danger, which is the entire tribe bar elizabeth, just because I haven't messaged her and she hasn't messaged me so her getting pre merge would be very convenient for me to avoid the awkward convo of 'neither of us messaged each other', but im sure she's nice ksksks. um rlly hoping for a merge next, but i have a feeling it'll be a double tribal with a merge after it so im preparing for that as the worst case scenario, or maybe there's some returning twist before merge omg idk but i just hope i make it to merge omg.

"sotara"

- PRAYING FOR MY OG GALERAS BABIES AT THIS TRIBAL ;; I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY SU YESTERDAY IF THEY LOSE IT'D BE BETWEEN LAYLA AND ELIZABETH AND I REALLY DONT WANT EITHER TO GO DSLKSKSFL. ;_; ANY OF THE THREE LEAVING IS LITERALLY TRAGIC W A CAPITAL T :( elizabeth seemed so defeated and i feel horrid she doesnt deserve it dslkglsksgkslgskgsk i'm gonna talk to su and see if there's any way to get one of the og sotara out but i doubt it...

...speaking of doubt, uhm I doubt any tribal that my current tribe attends will be anything but stressful. I've been planting the seeds to Alex that I love Andre n wanna work with their duo so that in the event we lose I can take Callum & Matt (hopefully torsa too nnn but idt she'd do it) and blindside Alex and take his idol straight out of the game. I need to continue planting seeds and seeing whether or not Alex'll bite but I can't talk too much game rn because we keep winning and the fact that it's three pairs and that's it it's just such an awkward position to be in DSKDLKDSL. I just want to win so we don't have to deal w it but if we gotta....then we're going to have to take the shot @ Alex so tht we can breakup that potential Loris / Alex / Brian friend group (that lowkey Torsa and ig Andre since he's Alex's partner are apart of as well) and keep Brian with Matt & I instead of them. gl noms

"sotara"

- Our tribe won immunity again! It always feels great to not have to worry about going to Tribal Council and voting someone off. If ever we lose though, I've just been trying to solidify my relationships with my fellow tribe members, specifically Jayme and Torsa. Right now, I think they'd be the crucial swing votes in this setup composing of three pairs. I also haven't really connected all that much with either Matt or Callum, so my main goal as of now is to just make me and Alex the more enticing pair to trust and be allies with.

"romeral"

- So we won and I'm hype for that! Easy round, so I'm satisfied. At this point in the game I'm trying to appear as much like a Free Agent as humanly possible, but at the same time trying to give people enough so they trust me. I do trust Andreas, as we've compared notes a few times and I'm feeling good about him going forward. Beyond that, Jake was very suspicious this round and was trying to ""Pick my brain"" which like, fine but I ain't about to let you go all lobotomy on me. So I kinda just bullshit him some and he brought up the idea of working with his loved one Layla. Who I talk to some, but from talks it seems like she kinda forces it a bit. Which to me kinda signals she's talking to a lot of people. Which Jake called her ""social with everyone"" so it was not hard to make that assumption. I'm thinking Layla is going to be a bigger threat for this reason, I don't want someone who can bob and weave because they are social in this game. Mainly because I want that to be my job! Idk if I can, but I want to try and bring that in later on.

So for right now, I'm just trying to keep my options open and really just relax some. It will get crazier later on so I'm just trying to enjoy the moment. Not gonna overplay, just let the game come to me for now. its boring but its the fucking pre merge.....its meant to be slow. I also learned from Andreas that the Red idol has been found since he said he found the spot....so fun fun.

"galeras"

- wtf we lost a challenge.. the one time I sit out. this is clownery. it’s a bit of a mess tbh because I think everyone wants Layla? and then Layla is telling me everyone wants Elizabeth and then is telling liz to vote me? if I’m blindsided at swap again.... well. I don’t think rob would vote me out, I dont think su would and I don’t think kat wants to turn against tribe lines despite her never messaging messaging me. we’ll see!

"sotara"

- Caño Cristales Day 12 - lol it's dark (literally and game wise)

"romeral"

- So Elizabeth kind of flopped in the comp so I told her to make up a lie about why she flopped and she did it and they ate it up hahahha

"galeras"

- Before I head straight into the details of tribal, I want to make sure I note that I have no idea what went on before tribal started. I was inactive for a couple of days due to some real-life issues.

So tribal... We have options. And by we, I mean I. I have multiple options here. It doesn't look like things are really gonna stick to tribe lines, because Kat seems very willing to vote with Su, Elizabeth, and I.

First option: vote out Elizabeth. This makes perfect sense, seeing as how she's been a target at multiple tribals already, she's not the strongest with challenges, and many people on our tribe have barely talked to her. I've protected her many times, but she's continued to not bring her game up to par, so I know I can't protect her forever. On the other side, she's perfect goat material. I've covered her ass so many times now that I'm sure she trusts me and is loyal to me. If I can continue to keep her around 'til the merge (and Andreas doesn't cause her to betray me), not voting for Elizabeth will almost definitely be in my best interest. Also, she's the easiest vote, and Rob and Loris are already pushing her name - meaning I don't have to be the one to orchestrate this vote.

Second option: vote out Loris. Just like Elizabeth, this makes perfect sense, seeing as how he's arguably the strongest newbie in this game and Brian and him seem like a power-couple. Also, Kat hasn't talked to him, which makes her likely to swing to the OG Galeras side. Not to mention, Rob may or may not have an idol, and if he plays it on himself, Loris will remain unprotected. Again, there's a flip side to this. Loris is super strong at challenges. I'll probably tarnish my relationship with Brian by voting for him. The vote won't be unanimous. I have to orchestrate it, just expanding the target on my own back. Rob will feel betrayed by me for maybe the fourth time in our history. But you know what? I think this is the better game move for me. So despite the weight of these cons, voting out Loris is going to benefit me more than it hurts me - I hope.

Anyway, I'm torn. I could easily kill my game or make my game voting for either of them. That being said, I'm headed to my right-hand man - Su Sangster. He seems to prefer voting for Loris, so you know what, that's what we're gonna do.

Wish me luck. I might need it.

"sotara"

- I feel so drained. I am trying my absolute hardest to get myself back into some sort of positive attitude regarding the game but at this point I'm just reaching for nothing. I am quite clearly on the outs and at this point I don't feel like I have a genuine 100% true connection with ANYONE. And when I say anyone, I mean literally everyone. Not even Matt. One certain person who I really don't want to name at this point is just giving me ""haha"" ""ok"" ""lol"" ""lmao"" like oh my god... that's literally the one thing I absolutely hate when talking to someone. Don't make yourself out to be one of them. Like literally if you have more interesting people to talk to I would rather you just left me hanging than give me this half ass bullshit attempt at socialising. And I'm allied with this person????? What hope do I have? (The answer to that is literally 0)

I honestly couldn't care what anyone says about my social game at this point but I have tried, and I know I have. I've taken the exact same approach in other games and it has worked out for me. It may not have exactly led me to victory but it's taken me far. The spin is that this time, no one's willing to properly talk. I really don't get what I've done wrong. But either I'm just deluded and am playing this game terribly, or I'm right and no one is interested. I'm lost for words. There are some really lovely people though who I do wish I can talk to more - Brian, Jayme and Torsa are the first three who spring to mind, and I'm thankful I'm properly allied with the latter two.

In a nutshell, I'm just finding it really, really tough at the moment. But I'll see this game through right to the end as honourably as I can, as I always have. Maybe my time to shine just hasn't come yet. I know I'm yet to bloom, but maybe spring will come soon.

"sotara"

- ok just to add on to what i said earlier, i REALLY like andre as well but he's like... not in our majority sotara alliance so oopst :(((

"romeral"

- So I’ll keep this quick bc I’m short for time. People are targeting Liz cause they’re jealous and it’s not okay!!!!

She gave me back the idol because thinks she’s good!

Me and Jayme had a good chat and he doesn’t trust Alex, Loris and that’s that!

"galeras"

- 20 minutes before tribal results will post! and i feel so bad :'(

the way things figured out, it should be Layla tonight if everything goes according to plan. Layla feels SUUUper comfortable. she got the impression somehow that me and her are swing votes, and that we get to choose between voting out Elizabeth (thinking ROb and Loris are voting her) and Loris (thinking Kat and Elizabeth are voting him). She feels so safe that she's like, asking me about my day and so relaxed i feel SO BAD

but really, Layla has been a leak and has overplayed by pitting people against each other. She also has a general gamebot-like feel? It's not shade against her, I can just tell she has a very analytical and strategic mind, and people who can think circles around me and are very strategically minded and focused scare the SHIT outta me since my game is mainly social based. So she's super smart first off, and second off I really dont think I couldve saved her if I wanted to. She pissed off the Sotaras by assuming Kat would vote out Loris and they told each other about her plans and her lies to both sides, so the three of them were voting for her regardless I believe. And then she's also made Liz feel like she's untrustworthy and schemey as well as myself, and even if Liz and I stuck by her side this round it would still be 3-3, and I doubt a Sotara would flip, and it's much too early to go rocks. So forcing a tie would just wreck my bonds with the Sotaras, who I get along with great, ESPECIALLY rob and I do have a good bond with Loris too and I think Kat and I relate somewhat and get along decently too. Just everything fell into place this round for it to be Layla, it makes sense and I dont think i could change it if i wanted to; she's just gonna b so heartbroken and blindsided and i feel bad for her cuz i truly dont think she sees it coming unless she's acting hard af and im about to get idoled out LMFAOOOOOO but idts

I think that it does suck Layla has to go but it does put me in a good spot by building trust with everyone else on my tribe. If we lose again I think Liz will go before me, and by then we should either swap or I should maybe be able to survive another vote, because Rob said he'd rather vote out Loris before me so I could try to work that to my advantage. I think we should win out/swap soon enough to avoid me facing the 3 Sotaras or even Liz going, and I hope so cuz i'd like to see Liz Kat Rob and Loris all in the next stage of the game. At the end of the day it made most sense for me and the rest to see Layla go so it seems to be the end of her game :'(

"romeral"

- WHEW! I'm so happy to have this day off to relax. I don't have much to report, but I've basically been informed by Loris and Su that Ms. Layla will be taking the walk of shame. It's unfortunate because I do like her a lot, and I'd much prefer that Ms. Elizabeth were the one to go, but I think Andreas is very willing to work with me, so I'm going to hope that keeps me in her good graces. I'll still put in work with her, but I... will be relying on Andreas a ton in that regard, too.

I think it'll be nice... if that tribes goes to tribal again, though. I do think that Elizabeth is weaker than Layla, so I do see it being more ... detrimental for them to keep her! But if they do, then... well.... I know I just talked about Elizabeth-Andreas, but I still think Liz would go next tribal if they went and I will not complain!

In addition, I'm still struggling at really forming shit with Jerry and Jake, so I'm super sure that I will have to idol if we go to tribal again! But... yah...
