Wild Bunch/Confessionals

Day 29
"salvador"

- I was hoping my actions yesterday would make Grace play her idol. Either she doesnt have it, or it didnt work

"salvador"

- I have a lot of damage control to do with Scott and I can't wait for him to continue lying to me

"salvador"

- let's just say I'm here to show how EASY it is to get to the end.

"salvador"

- So last round was i n s a n e. I had spent the past couple of days prior really forcing the issue that I was loyal to just about every single person left in the game. I really was expecting a Grace/Bryce showdown and we sortaaaa got it, minus the fact that none of them even received VOTES during that last tribal. Things were really tight and for me the silence was killing me for a certain stretch yesterday, until Bryce called me and we cleared things up with each other. He knew that I was going around throwing his name, but I let him know ahead of time anyways. So in the call I just reconfirmed my loyalties and we often compared notes, where we found out that Jordan was playing both sides hardcore. I mean I think Jordan was in a tough spot to begin with. He felt a need to be indebted to Bryce and Taylor after they saved him last round but then again I feel like he wanted to go back to his previous alliance members like Grace, Scott, Boo, etc. This made him throw my name around a lot and it caught up to him when he lied on a few matters, and I saw this as a prime opportunity to just take a swing at the kid. Bryce was down for it too, apparently he felt betrayed by Jordan (which lets me know Bryce is working with just about everyone and everything), and the group chat of myself Bryce Taylor Michelle and Lucas settled on voting for Jordan. The vote became more lopsided when Taylor let Grace know of Jordan's double dipping, and I kinda keyed Grace in on it to so she voted Jordan as well, and I guess she must've filled Boo in leaving only Jordan and Scott to vote out Lucas while everyone else blasted Jordan. THE END. And I'm just shocked from all of this because I honestly didn't expect ANY more rounds in this game where I get off voteless in a scenario where I don't have immunity, but I guess it worked. But now it's the Final 8. Immunity is everything now, and my alert meter will be skyhigh if I don't win it. Scott seems to be an easy out, but he's alone in this game. What's concerning to me is the power of the Bryce-Taylor duo, as it has Bryce with a double vote and Taylor had genuine and good talks with Grace to get her to vote with all of us that last vote. One of those three HAS to go next round.

"salvador"

- Last time I checked none of these hoes were named "Pop Quiz", so they shouldn't test me.

"salvador"

- Basically, talked to Scott and apologised in case I was the reason he's been upset yesterday. Turns out, he's mostly upset with Grace and Boo for not informing him about the vote. They did the same mistake again. NEVER leave your ally out. This is pretty pathetic, not gonna even lie.

Day 30
"salvador"

- I'm feeling nervous this upcoming round, though I do notice Bryce is keeping close to me and I hope he does. I said in my last conf I'd want Bryce Taylor or Grace to go but aside from myself, they're the only real huge threats left in the game. Basically what I'm saying is that there are 4 threats and 4... floaters? While yes ideally you go after anyone that is playing this game well, I want to keep some of these big names around to lower the target on my own ass. That way I don't have to win out in challenges. I learned anyways that flash games are becoming rare and now this will be 3 challenges in a row where your fate really isn't put into your own hands. So hopefully I let Bryce know that we need one another or the other becomes a target, let him be a bit suspicious of the whole Taylor/Grace duo, and hopefully we can get out a floater this round. What I wouldn't mind seeing though is Bryce and Grace at each other's throats, but ik Taylor's gonna be an impasse to that but it's like HELLO, Bryce and Grace are the only contestants left in this game with 0 votes against. WHY IS THAT. All in all I just want my game to be adaptable, whether I have to win out in comps or just keep all the big fish in, and as always, if I have any remote sense of doubt, the idol's coming out of the bag. Also I really hope me getting a Spencer gif and Bryce getting a Jeremy gif isn't FORESHADOWING in this game

"salvador"

- I'm actually very much looking forward to this comp. Not in the sense of me winning it, but I definitely think I have a chance the more I think of it, and I'm intrigued to see who goes after who. If the cards fall right, I think the only person that may outright target me out of the gate in the comp is Scott?? I feel like there's a lot of conflicts, or at least the sense of no game loyalties moving forward between some people - let's say Boo/Lucas, Grace/Michelle, Bryce/Grace, that I can see them going after one another while I can coast in the early rounds. Depending on how each round goes it's definitely going to be a constant evaluation on whether or not I throw the question - at the end of the day these rope challenges give cold hard evidence of where people stand in this game, and if you're in good graces with a lot of players you don't want to reveal your hand too much. So I may even let Heather sub out at a certain point?? Also, Grace and Michelle's unknown rewards are scaring the FUCK out of me And dare I say I'm tempted to make deals with Bryce, Michelle and Lucas an hour before the challenge saying I won't go after them until it must occur from a game standpoint..?? I PROBABLY WILL LOL

"salvador"

- LMAOOOO I HAVE A NO CUT CLAUSE WITH BRYCE LUCAS AND MICHELLE. SHOW 'EM THE MONEY HANDS

Day 31
"salvador"

- I'm fucked I pissed off like 4 different people in that challenge awoeijfaoiwejfoaiwejfoiajwef

"none"

- Wow i cant believe that im winning Retribution i just reentered the game and i am ready to win xoxoxo JK when i was gonna be scotts love one i was like fuck yas since scott is legit amazing i could go on a paragraph how he is amazing, It made me sad seeing him upset in the vl since i hate seeing him upset so i hope as a love one i made him feel better and the other love ones Heather and Evan? Iconic!!!! Hevan is real tbh! Bryce and Molly iconic... JUStin and grace whew and the other love ones whew it was sad seeing scott lose immunity but im still proud of him and i am happy that bryce choose scott to stay because yassss i was not ready to leave that tribechat early yet.

"none"

- Getting to spend time with Michelle is just wonderful! She's doing so well out here and I'm so proud of her. I'm going to be her eyes and ears for the duration of my stay here, and if someone DARES tries starting shit with her, there will be havoc to wreak.

"salvador"

- So basically, I think I have Scott's trust. Basically my plan is to split the votes between boo and grace, I think we can even rely on scott to vote for one of them. Michelle gave me the clue even though I have no idea where the hell is it. I'll make sure to talk to everyone probably except for grace and boo this time though

"none"

- i hope bryce wins we're so amazing we went on call and we added evan and then bryce told me at the end that lucas was gonna chop evan so i should too so we made it look like an accident on call wpodcbksjnskad HE CONVINCED HIM NOT TO CUT HIM GOD GOOODDDD

"salvador"

- IT'S THE END OF ALL DAYS.

"salvador"

- So, Scott tells me that Boo confronted him about possibly voting him, how does he know? Well Boo told Scott he knows from Michelle and I told Michelle about the plan. Michelle - what the hell are you doing??? I know you're not 100% sure about Scott's vote but what other bloody plan do you have.

"salvador"

- Michelle is so fucking stupid... I can't take it. How in the world is my goat alliance supposed to work next vote when I have this sad selection to work with that potentially all hate eachother??? HMM? I don't even trust that she would keep it a secret and no run to Bryce to spill the beans. I'm not sure if she has any awareness as to what's going on in this game! I had this perfect plan that i was the driving force behind! It was to get rid of Evan without him playing the idol. Bryce, Boo, Grace, and I would all vote Evan and let nobody else know! IT. WAS. PERFECT. He left the immunity challenge assuming he was not a target. Then out of nowhere Michelle approaches me and Boo about voting Evan! I was hesitant to say a word to her because I was thinking it was possible Evan sent her to gather information. So I didn't mention there was already a plan. I just kind of went with what she said. Bryce was the guy to make sure Evan didn't play the idol. He was fine until Michelle came to him and said Boo was voting for him most likely! LIKE WTF!?!?!?! Bitch, you asked Boo to vote him!!! (btw... this isn't meant to be disrespectful.... but... I had to say it) Like what kind of shit is she smoking over there!? So I am completely assuming she is Evan's little minion... and maybe even Bryce's as well. Hmm... I don't like this. Does Michelle not understand her best option moving forward is what I told her about. This goat alliance??? SHE MUST WANT TO BE THE ULTIMATE LOSER NOT THAT SHE WILL REALLY BE ANY BETTER OFF IN THE GOAT ALLIANCE!!! But Michelle is great. She's cool.... She keeps saying the questions she's asking me are for my eyes only... so maybe she is on my side... or she's feeding it all back to Evan like a little sheepy sheep goat. BAAAHHH MOTHAFUCKAH BAAAHHH! Now she's asking me about idol clues on exile. Is she trying to see if I could have the idol, so they can vote me out!? Gosh. This girl is... not ok with me right now. Things went much smoother last time I played. What a mess. BUT SEEING FITZY FOR THE FAMILY VISIT WAS A NICE PLUS!!!! But NOT MOLLY!!!! BLECH! (I put this here so she'll see it. Love my Queen.) So I pray my plan to take out Evan once and for all works. It's his time. And like wowza hot damn. I have some anger issues. I need to start praying for forgiveness. I'm off to that now tbh....

"salvador"

- Last challenge could have either been a rousing success or a miserable failure. YOU GUESSED IT, it was the latter. At least, things went off well - I got a lot of early questions correct as well as my alliance from last round and we were able to get out Boo Grace and Scott out with ease. Then things got tricky - I wanted Taylor to be the next to go because I had deals with everyone remaining in the game. It was under agreement with Bryce Lucas & Michelle to not to go after me until it was necessary but Michelle had subbed out with Chris who randomly went rogue in a round to chop off Bryce's rope. Idk Chris personally so when I had a chop between Taylor or Michelle, I chopped off Michelle's bc I figured Chris may have went after my ropes. I pm'ed Michelle mid challenge like ""MICHELLE IS CHRIS STILL UNDER YOUR INSTRUCTION FOR THE CHALLENGE"" but she didn't message me so I had to pull the trigger - and sadly enough Michelle was a little upset with me chopping her last piece of rope. Eventually I got out Taylor and the last 3 were me Bryce and Lucas, me with 2, Lucas and Bryce with 1. We all got the question right. AND OF COURSE, ME HAVING THE MOST AMOUNT OF ROPES LITERALLY WORKED A G A I N S T ME IN THE CHALLENGE LIKE WHAT THE FUCK THAT'S HOW WEIRD THIS THING IS. I wish it could've worked so maybe at a certain phase like that it's only the first one to guess it correctly chops rope so I could've just thrown it and won it by default. So when all 3 of us get it Bryce and Lucas both have to chop my rope and they did it immediately - leaving me having to technically give one of them immunity. It was literally a rash decision and I had to give it to Bryce - between him and Lucas I'd rather have Lucas mad at me, and I wanted to show Bryce that he can trust me 100% rn. Lucas wasn't all that mad at me but he really wanted the immunity. I made a mistake by getting too many questions right and chopping ropes of people I had at least some sort of mutual agreement with gamewise or from the challenge point - Michelle, Lucas, Grace, Boo, so yeah, my panic meter is on full throttle after this.

"salvador"

- i am lowkey disappointed because last tribal was a bust. i wanted to flush that idol so so so so bad. what's weird is that grace and boo apparently voted jordan after we all agreed to shut up so how the hell did that happen? i don't know. boo's covering it. #shwadey and now, again, we're all gonna seal our lips on voting boo by playing pretend, again. i don't trust a frickin' hair from these people after the jordan vote. everybody's talking to everyone so i'm going to play my thing. besides giving the clue to everyone who asked (like go crazy finding that damn thing) i'm throwing evan's name out but i'm probably not going to vote for him.. for now (rip dude i'm sorry you've been down before and dodged a couple of tribals but i know you're gonna kill it in the end). i just threw the idea to boo and he'll most probably gonna tell it to her bff grace. i told taylor about the idea too because it seem they thought me and evan are tight. i told scott that i'm not sure where to go so there's an option. i also told be he's gonna be a target but i am not voting for him. the point being, the other side should go evan. the dudes on my side will go boo, and i will go grace. in the end, so long as it ain't me. but still my body will always be ready. :~)

"salvador"

- I knew I was getting votes this tribal, but it was all but confirmed to me in a call with Bryce. They've flipped this script against me. From the outside looking in, it's me and Lucas against everybody. But every faction that's been formed in this game has and will always have a chink in its armor, and now this fracture is named Bryce. He let me knows what's up, and I'm playing that idol ahead of time and he knows so too, but he'll for sure act jaw dropped about it. I'm guessing people compared notes on me - and eventually they pieced it together that here at the Final 8 you better shoot your bullets at the guy with 3 individual wins, an idol play, and someone who was the last to get get their rope chopped off in the challenge. I can't exactly pinpoint who's spearheading this charge against me, it could be Grace, it could be Taylor, it could be Michelle, it could be Boo, shit, it could be Bryce doing all this just to get me to flush out my idol, but I couldn't care less at this point. I've been getting by in this game by winning challenges and/or playing idols, and for me that's the simplest way to move on, and that's just what I'm going to have to continue to do. So if all works out, I'm going to idol out Boo, and if it sounds like deja vu to you, it is, because I had similar aspirations like this a few votes ago too. I'd like it to be Grace but since I have to continue trusting Bryce for now, he wants it to be Boo and I'd say Boo's a good secondary option to idol out considering he gets in everyone's plans. Like the man gave me a good 20 minute call wanting to lock things down with me and then I find out he's calling people we should be completely against a few hours later. So me voting out Boo isn't necessarily a matter of voting out an endgame threat, but voting out a threat for me to GET to the end. After this, Bryce acts shocked to the majority, he flips back with his double vote, possibly gets back Scott, and we blow this game open. Idoling out Boo huh? It's time that I finish what I started.

"salvador"

- A tricky part about this process is that I still have to play up to this dumb charade of the core 5 of myself Bryce Taylor Lucas and Michelle. Well, basically everyone but Lucas knows it's already crumbling down, but, now we're "debating" on splitting votes or not and it's tricky because if we all "agree" to a split and Lucas and I vote oppositely, there's a possible revote occuring and there's just pure unfiltered CHAOS ahead. Maybe that's what I want?? Idk. I'm doing my best for now to get Lucas and I to vote the same page against Boo but if we have to somehow end up voting Grace or something, I won't be opposed to that, I'm just curious to see if Bryce would be fine with Grace being idoled out, and I swear if he gets cute and randomly tries to tell me votes are on Lucas instead I'm going to lose my shit

"salvador"

- Okay so if everyone is telling the truth (which I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't) Michelle should be getting 4 votes from me, Grace, Bryce, and Taylor. Apparently the others are splitting the vote between me (Scott, Evan) and Grace (Michelle, Lucas) and apparently Evan is playing his idol. All of this could be huge lie but I'm really hoping it works out and Michelle leaves because she's such a wildcard and is playing both sides which makes her dangerous at this point in the game.

"salvador"

- SO I MAY ACTUALLY HAVE THE DECISION TO IDOL OUT BOO OR GRACE NOW. It's actually a harder decision than I think, it may change by the end of the voting period but it may have to be GRACE, strictly because if I knock her out I can take out a threat to me making an immunity run to the end. But if I take her out, I may have less strategic leeway to work with. Guess you'll have to wait and see.

"salvador"

- Survivor Retribution Confessional 14 Grace

"salvador"

- So now I have two choices. Either work with people who threw my name for shit or work with someone who's lied to me time and time again and with two people whose names I've written down :::::::::::::::::::::) This is the worst fucking game I have ever played to date. I came in trying to babysit 4 of my friends, watched 3 of them go, and in doing so, got behind on the 8-ball in terms of socializing with others and it's left me so out of the loop strategically. I'm so ashamed of my performance, but I'm going to find a way to make something out of this mess. I p r o m i s e t h a t.

"salvador"

- *on call with bryce and hears him typing loud* Me: who ya talking to Bryce Bryce: my confessional thread

"salvador"

- Holy shit these people are ridiculous aweoifjaoiwefjaef

"salvador"

- This call is like Boo: *says plea* Evan: uh huh Me and Bryce: *sit quietly while typing in PM*

"salvador"

- I may just play dumb, continue to watch these fireworks go on by and then hit 'em with a last second immunity run if they forget who I am shit's getting weird lol

"salvador"

- DAY 31: Yeah... so I guess I forgot how much of a crybaby Bryce can be. Didn't I learn from Kamchatka and earlier this season!? Have fun getting my vote if you make it there, bud! He tried to get me to flip after the vote. As soon as I said no, it won't work... bam... the psychotic whine ass comes out. It might work for him too. And Grace/Boo are a little hypocritical considering they backstabbed Scott... but... they're honest angels remember! If Evan does decide to flip... he's stupid to be honest because he can destory all us little goats in challenges, but he can't beat those guys. They officially destroyed any chance of me working with them too! I would have honestly gone for Evan with them if they really wanted to... but that's what happens. I would still vote fro Grace at the end though.. i feel her struggle. She deserves it and she's a great person. I like Boo... but I don't know that he's done much other than be grace's ally. And they BOTH lied to me premerge and early merge! WTF!?!? Why are they saints now!??! They're hypocrites.

"salvador"

- my cover is blown :') i'm just gonna look back at this and laugh.. and cry lol. screw taylor for messing things up. screw bryce for making it worse. and i don't blame grace and boo for dragging me like that. but i have no frickin clue there's supposed to be an operation: kill evan in a group i wasn't even involved in and yet apparently i was the mastermind. i wanted to work with boo as far as i can but it's just stupid of me how he'll never flip against grace ever. now i'm just gonna have to work with evan and lucas for a long while, that if i still can because i got one foot out of this tribal council already. it's been fun because there's just a wild bunch of messed up layers this game. :~)

"salvador"

- At this point I've done all I can do. Unless they are blatantly lying to my face I believe Evan and Scott will be voting to keep me and even Lucas mentioned he was considering it but I would count on him since he also believes Michelle is a good goat to keep around. I'm really this works!

"salvador"

- Fallout from last trbal was asinine, volatile, but most importantly HILARIOUS. It was a giant game of telephone, and from it all arose two sides - Taylor and Michelle on one hand, and Bryce Grace and Boo on the other. Both groups are thoroughly convinced the other is at fault for my name being thrown out there. My instinct (which has been mediocre as of late but fuck you I still have to trust it) tells me Taylor and Michelle were the ones that brought my name up at first, but that doesn't change the fact Bryce is still by far the biggest motherfucking liar in this game and I cannot wait to vote him out. I think Grace and Boo are just out there - they're a duo that's fought for position for a while in this game and I don't think I have a reason to pick them off now. Lucas is opposed to that, and he wants them out now, which is SO frustrating because he needs to realize they don't hold power - players like Taylor, Michelle, and Bryce do. Me Lucas and Scott HAVE to agree to a final 3, but those two are doing everything in their power to work against that for whatever reason in this game, and it's infuriating because it would give us a golden path in the end. So I'm just TRYING to get Lucas and Scott on the same page, have one or both of them flip and vote Michelle in this revote, and next vote, I want to make Bryce pay for making him waste my idol. Also, I finally FOUND the idol location. But I don't know if it's the real thing. The only one who told me they looked in the intro is Michelle, and this was when she already had both clues. If I had to guess, she has that fucking thing, and I'm going to ask her straight up if she does. Tell the truth? And I might just keep you

"salvador"

- Well, basically - people fucked up my split vote plan - it was a very simple plan people. The thing is - I might have to vote out my ally Michelle, which I am basically gonna do - I even told Boo that I will be doing so and he kept on posting ""OMG"" and stuff about 10 times and wanted to skype, umm what? I wouldn't be so happy on Boo's part - Evan has a bit of an upperhand here since he's immune from rocks and I really don't want to go for rocks, even though I talked about him about the pure benefits of keeping michelle he doesn't really care since he doesn't trust here. Omg, she has no power in this game. Basically, I think I got Scott's loyalty in this game - since for this vote he'll basically vote however I want him to. Taylor and I really don't understand Evan's decision, but we're fine with aligning with him and Scott for the next vote, but his plan to vote out boo next is stupid since we can just do it now... Well, whatever... It is at it is - as long as I have majority and going for rocks makes no sense at the moment.

"salvador"

- Finally, I think I got Lucas to budge on voting Michelle out. But Taylor, if you're going to sulk and whine to me in pm's, don't be surprised when it's yours and not Bryce's torch being snuffed that next round. Get over it, we need to get our shit together and vote out the biggest threat in this game after but if you're gonna give me reason to doubt you then enjoy making things harder on all of us just because things didn't go your way on this vote.

"salvador"

- Michelle is going for sure now. Evan doesn't trust her, and Lucas won't do rocks. Evan promises he's after Grace, Boo, and Bryce next time because he knows he can't beat Bryce and Grace at the end, and he's right. That makes me beklieve him. But what doesn't make sense, is getting rid of Michelle, who has no power in the game. He's probably trying to do away with having too many wildcards in his alliance, so there goes my goat and possibly my chance at taking this game. BUT I do still have a chance. I want to get there with Scott and Lucas. Scott will be tough because he's well-liked, but he hasn't done all that much that I know of. My chances are slim, but I will fight hard. I hope Bryce feels all high and mighty right now. Because I'll act weak and like I'm going next... then blindside his ass and it will be sweetttt!!!!! I'm so sick of hearing him cry when things don't go his way. He is destroying any social game he has by throwing tantrums. He acts like he hasn't lied to anybody in the game even thioguth he's the reason for the current jury members. He was just mad I turned on him and he didn't see it coming. It's just like in Kamchatka. Bryce tries to pull of moves all merge but is unable to do anything as we continue to dominate. I'm able to use him to pull off multiple blindsides, and he cries and throws a fit at the end telling me I just won the game before quitting. Then he FAILS AT QUITTING TOO!!!! So he ends up in the finals, and he throws a tantrum telling nobody to vote for him. He then claims it's because the season sucks and nothing happened... when in reality, a lot happened... it just didn't involve him and he couldn't handle it. Then he all of a sudden tries to win... but fails at that too... because he's a quitter. I'm sure nobody sees me as likable right now, but I am still the underdog fighting my way to the top. They probably all like Bryce, but he's an evil bully. I hope I get him because he needs to go. My plan is to get Bryce. then to get Evan. Then to get Grace. And finally to get Boo... but we'll see how that works out.
