Set of Queens

 is the eighth episode of.

Challenges
Reward Challenge: Live Guess Who Both tribes will be guessing for the same former Survivor contestant by asking one yes-or-no question at a time in their tribe chats on Facebook. When they think they know the answer, they put a guess in the main cast chat, but an incorrect guess will result in a three minute penalty. The first tribe to correctly guess the contestant wins. Reward: An advantage in the upcoming immunity challenge. Winner(s): Corvo

Immunity Challenge: Hands on a Hard Idol Each tribe will be given their own thread of a tiki pole. Every fifteen minutes, a contestant must post an addition to the tiki pole, but they must wait before two others have gone before them. Whichever tribe keeps their tiki pole going for the longest wins. Winner(s): Corvo

Voting Confessionals
"alto mira"

- Sorry, girl. You showed up a little too late.

"alto mira"

- Even though it's most likely fake, I want to play the Idol I found! And I'm so sorry Violet, I truly am. Had I talked to you earlier this probably wouldn't have happened, but it is how it is. I might go home today, and if so I wish you good luck in the game. Really hope playing my Idol is the right choice. It's most likely fake, and I hope that reveals one of the old Altos as having the real one. This is an important TC, and unfortunately someone has to go home. I can reassure you though, Violet: you will not be forgotten!

"alto mira"

- My vote tonight is sadly going to be for Violet.

Not that we're very close in any way, but I feel like voting out Violet tonight is not the move I would prefer to make tonight. If I had my choice, it would be Nathaniel we would be sending home. The reason I'm not doing this is because Josh is adamant about keeping him in the game, and for now Josh is the main thing connecting Heather and I to the 6 person alliance with Emma, Scott and Brayden. If we piss Josh off we might be cutting ties with him, and that would put us at a big disadvantage. As much as I want to make the move that is best for my long-term game, Josh is proving that he has a temperament on him and I need to prove to him that I am still loyal to him, even if it means voting out a potential future ally that could be used to help latter on in the game.

Of course, there's always the possibility of myself being sent home tonight. Every time I go to tribal council that thought will creep into my mind. I have worked hard to build up relationships and allies but there are still people out there that see me as a potential threat to their long-term games. Going out now would be a huge sucker-punch for me if this is the last round before the merge or the jury when I've fought so hard to get here.

I hope i'm making the right move.

"alto mira"

- Woah! It's been a long time since I've written one of these. I mean you can understand, I've been gone for a while, nothing's happened really. A long time away from tribal council can lead to a pretty boring game.

Right now, I'm gearing up for the merge. I've managed to play a really good under the radar game, and that wasn't hard as we've avoided tribal council for so long. During merge, I hope to amp up my game play, as I'm more comfortable with members of Alto Mira. Surely going in Corvo strong is going to give the impression of a Pagong, which always scares everyone. If I can orchestrate a vote that takes out a member of Corvo first, I can gain the respect of Alto Mira players, and also release the hysteria of a simple Pagong game. It will lead to a more interesting 2nd Half to watch, by far.
