Clifford: Immunity! How important is it to have immunity at the first merged vote?

It's VERY important. I was heavily targeted last round while there was still 9+ hours left to our team challenge. Unless you earn safety, you're not safe. The logic behind eliminating Eva was simply due to her trying to blindside me. That's a common element in this game so apply that same mentality to the merge. No one wants to throw out a name because as soon as one name is out, the option to retaliate is out, and the moment the option to retaliate is out, the moment to deviate is out. Things might be slow rolling into this tribal with no one really knowing what's going to happen but it's going to become more convoluted when the people without safety starting feeling paranoid, fear, distrust. Human emotions and human agendas complicate votes. Things could be simple but people don't make things simple. So I'm VERY HAPPY to be safe this tribal and the irony isn't lost on me that I won a competition that requires seeing through lies.
