Ready To Slit Throats/Confessionals

Day 3
"talap"

- So tribal went as expected, nice, easy 7 – 1 vote, sucks for Anna as she did seem nice when she was around, but her cruise really screwed her for this game tbh.

"phaluai"

- I've been sleeping a lot lately, for reasons I won't get into. It has definitely affected my social game and the relationships that I have forged. Fortunately for me, winning the immunity challenge gives me enough time to try to repair everything. I feel like Brett and Tyson are kind of lost causes for me. It is VERY clear that they don't like talking to me. I'll still try to chat with them because I still want my options open, but I'm not sure if they're going to reciprocate much. I've neglected talking with Julia and Hannah too but I can sense more of a working relationship with them because they've been busy so it's understandable for the conversation to suddenly drop off.

Regarding recent events, Jake killed it that immunity challenge and deservedly went to the temple exile thingy. I woke up kind of nervous because I haven't talked to him in a while but then I remembered about the exile. Uh, I think I contributed enough to the challenge to be considered an asset, hopefully they won't use that as a reasoning to take me out. Anna was voted out and I wasn't entirely sure if I could work with her so I'm not too bothered by it. If it were like Rhi or Jace or Nathan then I would've been a bit worried because I hope I can work with them in the future since they seem cool. (Also I worked with Rhi for the tiny bit that we were together in Cyprus anyway) I hope our tribe does well this next immunity challenge, because I'm not entirely sure if I'm ready to go to tribal yet. I don't really have much set in stone in terms of like, alliances yet. I just have people that I feel close to. I mean, who knows, maybe it's better to not have been roped into an alliance so early as the first three days, so who knows.

"talap"

- I might barely be able to navigate my way around MS Paint but I just freaking love that we have this huge art talent in Jace as well as Kostas who made a pretty bomb flag himself. Hopefully I can cook up a decent flag myself on GIMP but just from like that one little bit that Jace showed I can already see a winner, and I love it

"phaluai"

- Okay so our reward challenge is a flag making one and I don't particularly care about winning reward, I just care about immunity. I didn't get all too mad because Brett and Julia made really good looking flags anyway.(Julia forgot to put the logo on hers but I don't wanna point that out because I don't wanna be seen as rude or anything) That all being said, I am a little bit peeved that no one really mentioned my name. I told a few of the people who asked, that I was into graphic design and artsy stuff and whatever. I know this sounds really conceited and bad, and trust me I feel awful about it too, but I kinda wish at least one person brought me up to do the flag making, because it kind of just feels like no one really cared to remember. Probably the DUMBEST thing to get mad about actually 😣

"phaluai"

- After the first challenge, I think our tribe showed themselves as threats and feel like we would be targeted in a swap so I was going to throw the next immunity challenge. I also want to get rid of Brett quite honestly. Now that Jake has a punishment of not voting, I cannot have him going into a swap with no vote. I need him going into merge. This has given me a reason to push for throwing the immunity challenge. Best part is; it wasn't even a suggestion I made first. Jake hinted and I clued onto what he was saying. Let's hope this doesn't backfire.

"phaluai"

- I really am trying to take a lot from this season. In past, I have always looked at the game as a game; not caring about anything else but game. This time, I enjoy the conversations which are genuine, such as with Pris, more. It feels real. It feels trusting. I am finding it harder to strategise all the time and find myself over-playing. I am trying to pull back out of it because I just feel drained. I was considering pitching an alliance of me, Hannah, Pris and Jake. 1) to secure Hannah in a proper alliance outside of me and her and 2) to have Pris feel included. However, doing that could put me in a situation where I have to backstab and even though I have no issue with doing that, I think that makes me look untrustworthy as a player this early and that's not what I want.

"phaluai"

- alietta and chris are already saying how much they like pris now. i told pris to step her pussy up and she DID. proud of ha

"talap"

- So everything went according to plan, and Anna voted for me for some reason. Probably because we didn't get a chance to actually speak. But before she left she had the audacity to say "fuck y'all that didn't give me a chance" or something along those lines. Like ermm what do you call the last 2 to 3 fucking days, girl!? I'm sorry that I was unavailable to speak for a few hours because of work, but maybe if you were actually here at all for the last oh, I don't know 72 HOURS then you could've had a chance! Pfft... PEOPLE! Yeah... PEOPLE! But anyway, I honestly bet the cruise was worth it. I probably would've done the same thing. Well, I would've backed out possibly if I knew I wouldn't be around... but like still.... ADVENTURE!!!

"samsao"

- so about me and clifford. idk how many ppl know about this story, it's quite old actually but i feel like explaining it. clifford and i both played our first ever orgs together, hosted by one Slut Johnny. it was a fun game, we were on different tribes but I mutinied to his after a betrayal and started an early merge by doing so. we were really close allies, i trusted him a lot more than i should have. we had an alliance of four. me, him, alex massaro, and one other guy. we were at final 5 with the only person from my original tribe on the outs, and then my alliance blindsided me. i was extremely hurt, sad, angry, and in shock. i was very bitter in my jury speech and made it clear in no uncertain terms that i would never vote for him. we patched things up nearly a YEAR later, and now are on good terms but in terms of intense org experiences, your first is always your biggest...

"talap"

- Things have been pretty quiet so far on Talap. I think I made a really great flag today though so hopefully the tribe decides it's the best, and so do the judges. I hope I am in good standings with the tribe still, but either a lot of people are just like busy today, or they don't want to talk LMAO. Julez left me on read which is.... interesting, but it is probably harmless.

"samsao"

- I locked down one-to-one alliances with Jenna, Eva, Yannick, Anna Bell, Miguel and Sim. LOL everyone but Erin. I just have a gut feeling that she's not going to be good for my game. Her and Sim are expendable to me at the moment but I will keep Sim as close as possible. No bother trying to do the same to Erin, she doesn't buy much bullshit so I won't sell her any. Got to keep things cordial and casual. If I'm going to work with Erin, it's going to be a slow boil and will take a lot of work to get us to a place where we trust each other.

"talap"

- Make that two tribemates leaving me on read.

"talap"

- I see you Taylor, ignoring my message and then snatching the idea of a purple tiger face for your flag. I'm petty and will remember this.

"talap"

- See now Maya really is a queen. THANKS FOR ACTUALLY RESPONDING TO ME UNLIKE EVERYONE ELSE IN THE ALLIANCE.

"phaluai"

- Okay so, I did a lot of bonding with Alietta, Jake, and Chris today. Apparently Alietta and Jake are close and since they apparently both feel close with me, that's a possible alliance right there. Of course, nothing has been set in stone yet. Jake revealed that his punishment from the temple thingy was that he couldn't vote at the next tribal, which I doubt he's lying about. He said that he would feel safe if we went to tribal because apparently Brett hasn't only been barely talking to me, but a lot of other people as well. Jake is the only one who has really brought up Brett's name to me so I'm not sure I entirely trust going to tribal yet. That being said, I wouldn't mind if Brett did leave because again, I doubt he really wants to work with me.

All that being said, Jake suggested that we shared answers for idol clues and I obliged because hey, I trust him so far. But as soon as I gave him the guesses I made, after he gave me his, he suddenly went kind of gone for a bit. Obviously he could've just been busy doing something, but a part of me kind of wonders if he's sharing my guesses with someone else. Then it hit me. I shouldn't be pouring all of my trust into someone I met fuckin' like three days ago. It was okay to share it with Mai because we had an entire fuckin' season to prove loyalty to each other. But Jake, I like him and all, but there's no guarantee that he trusts me as much as I trust him. I'm not going to like purposefully ruin his idol clues or anything just yet because there's a possibility that he really does trust me enough to play it in my favor, but I'm definitely going to keep my eyes open.

"talap"

- I asked Maya if anyone had been talking to her today since the chat had been quiet af and I was paranoid (I didn't say all this to her). She said that she also noticed that the chat was dead today and that she was also left on read by a few people. Unless she is really playing me (which I feel like she wouldn't do), it seems that people must just be like busy/off today so I shouldn't worry too much.

"samsao"

- Here's Some True Tea, So I have no idea how we're going to do on this challenge but I feel like Erin and I turned over a good product. Hopefully, because I did the majority of the work, they will let me go to the forbidden sex island or whatever it is so I can see what kind of sweet loot I can score! I really like the idea of doing a fun teen drama theme with the flag. I thought at the very least it would lighten things up and help bring the tribe together in a cool way and I'm starting to see more of a team mentality happening. Everyone in here is playing like an individual though. That's All-Star seasons for ya. Everyone knows how to play. So I want to build a sense of community and comfortability so when they inevitable moment comes for someone to flip, it's a hard decision because I laid it out to be a hard decision. The moves I'm making right now to make people feel comfortable and safe with me (which will only half-work because people aren't idiots) should pay off around a swap or merge.

Anyone who watched my season knows how hard I play and how deep I'm into this so lets get into it.

Basically the main strategy I will implement this season is Full Court Press. You basketball fans will know this is a defensive strategy where teams make full use of the basketball court and play end to end. It's an exhausting strategy but it's how underdogs beat giants.

I don't believe I'm the best player or the best positioned player in this game and I believe that the deck is stacked against me. But I do believe I'll work harder than anyone else to stay in this game. I legit NEVER DO COMPS (like bare minimum, I suck) but I took initiative on this one because people are quiet in private, actions gotta speak louder than words. I'll feel more comfortable once there's an idol in my pocket.

The entire idea of the Full Court Press is that you play harder and more expansive than your opponent. This has lead C-list teams to taking gold because though they weren't the best, they worked the hardest. There's a lot more to it but the fundamental core is that it's an aggressively defensive strategy. How I implement that into this game is by experimenting with angles and exhausting all strategies. When someone is ""playing too hard too quick"" all that means is they played too hard too quickly AND GOT CAUGHT. You can play hard right off the bat without making a target of yourself. I mean, yes I am lining up F2 relationships left, right and centre and taking leading on reward challenge. I helped Annabelle watch live feeds without a subscription, I talked to Yannick about his girl problems, Jenna told me she got to view one question from Annabelle's application and shared it with me (honestly just made Annabelle seem even more appealing to work with), Erin is very guarded but by taking a leadership position in the tribe with her I'm hoping we can get closer (because I prefer dangerous people close to me), Miguel and I connected over the fact that I LIVED IN CHILE FOR A MONTH (BOO YA!!!) and Sim gave me a blanket ""we can be aligned"" type conversation which is enough from him right now because he isn't being too talkative with others, just lazily positioning himself, so whatever, I'll bite for now. But you see with all that it's like, damn this game has just started and I'm reeling people in. They're actually talking to me. Jenna didn't tell me ANYTHING Jake told her which tells me she has a side deal and also scares me because Jake might have sent Jenna to take me out. That's paranoia and professionals don't give into paranoia but I'm aware of the potential play.

Here the tea though, this is where I got cheeky.

I made the order of our pictures completely intentional on the flag! I put Annabelle, Erin and Yannick on top because these are three people, as I'm seeing conversations unfold, these three are good players. They are currently playing very well. So I will put them at the top, give them that subconscious feeling of ego inflating, and will continue doing things to elevate them and make them feel good. Comfortability is the gateway to sloppiness. If I can make them comfortable I can make them sloppy. Next row Jenna and Eva are side by side with me connected but underneath. I of course put myself last. I am a gentleman. And I want Eva and Jenna to believe I'm the bottom of the three of us so they're not overly concerned on icing me now and hopefully (foolishly) wait to get me out later. I also want to put myself last to give off the subconscious perception of humility. I connected Sim to Eva because he knows her and plays League with her, again that sense of vulnerability. And Miguel is the youngest so the most gullible, I put him right next to me to ham up this sham of an F2 I have with him.

This is a game of the mind. Especially online, we're not starving on an island. I'm picking at ketchup chips as we speak. This game is all about people and their choices. That's it. So I need to be on the ball or I'm gonna get tossed on my ass.

23 dominoes to line up before I can get this win. Just gotta start knocking them over, one by one.

"phaluai"

- If I get my way, I'm telling you Brett will be going home the next tribal in this game. I've wanted it from pretty much the beginning and I worked on planting that seed. I am trying to make it look like the plan to throw the challenge was nothing to do directly with me by just offering the pros and cons of doing it. We need to get rid of Jake's disadvantage. My mistake in Archetypes is that I went by on there not keeping control of how the target was treated, therefore leading me to be idoled out. In the group discussion with my alliance, I am going to make sure we all keep it up speaking to Brett so that it's consistent from everyone and therefore eliminating any chance of Brett thinking he needs to play an idol (if he has one). I'm also going to do the same with Hannah. Tyson believes Pris is an easier target to pretend to go after but I think Julia is just because I think she'd be more forgiving if she ever found out. I can keep Julia under control and make it look like I saved her and helped her stay in the game, which is something I told her I would do and I intend on sticking to that. Also Brett, iconic gif because that's us when we end you at the next tribal. Adios.

"phaluai"

- I've been trying to act as a laid back, easy to talk to person so that people are more willing to share information with me. Tyson and Jake, separately, want to work with Pris and Hannah. Tyson believes Jake's loyalty is questionable, which I don't see as I don't feel Jake's done anything to show that, and that puts me in a difficult position because I'm a duo with both of them. As of now, I'm going to side with Jake as I believe he is more logical and Tyson is too messy. I said something was off with Tyson to Jake yesterday and I was right. For Jake's benefit and my own selfish reasons of pitting people against each other, I told Jake. I did this so that me and him can work on re-building trust with Tyson and pushing the fact we need to secure Pris and Hannah. Hannah's pretty much locked and Pris is harder to crack but I'm working on having her open up more and having her feel appreciated. I've also made sure Jake doesn't act different with Tyson she that he doesn't clue into Jake acting different and then working out I told him. Cracks in an alliance can be filled and that's my intention. If not and it comes down to it, I'm going to have to pick a side and that could affect the game in playing and expose my cards.

"talap"

- I don't know if Taylor is ignoring the alliance and its members on purpose or what, but it isn't really smart to be ostracizing yourself from a 5 person alliance on a tribe of 7.

"phaluai"

- Okay so ever since last night, Jake has only been talking to me about the idol and the clues which is starting to look really suspicious. I'm not entirely sure if I want to help him with the idol anymore. Speaking of which, Tyson came to me last night for a quick chat which eventually lead to us sharing our idol guesses. He doesn't seem like he has any devious intent so far so eh, might as well.

Julia gets us second place in the reward which is good enough for me because not only do we get a clue, but we also get to let the other tribe pick one of us and it'll be interesting to see who they pick. Also Brett shared with us some idol sheet or whatever which I can't open right now, but apparently it's helpful. I'm going to take it with a grain of salt because he got pretty far his season and he also uses that really sarcastic 🙂 face which I'm not entirely sure if he knows looks sarcastic or not. This could all be a diversion set by him and I really don't think I can trust that. Also, Chris tells me something kind of nice to hear, which is that I'm not the only one who feels that Brett's being kind of distant. Apparently a lot of people are feeling that way. He's definitely a possible vote out for tribal and it'd be nice to go into a swap without having too big of a tribe (at least according to Sichuan) BUT I'm not entirely sure if what Chris tells me is true. Not that I don't trust him but I'll have to get more info from other people regarding that.

Also I did some bonding with Alietta and Alietta really wants to get as far as we can get together which kind of sucks because if I end up having to backstab Alietta, Alietta's going to get REALLY PISSED OFF (deservedly so if I manage to pull that off in the first place)

I typed all of that like right before who went to the Temple of Fate was announced and it's Hannah. Not entirely sure how they came to that decision but I do see possible allies for her on Talap.

"phaluai"

- She snapped

"talap"

- Taylor finally responded LMAO, turns out he "thought he replied" whatever, I won't be (too) bitter. Queen Maya is STANNING the tiger I drew so it's nice to be appreciated. I kinda miss Julez being at the Temple, Talap has become lowkey a little family so missing one of its members (especially without them being like voted out for flopping) is a little sad. She will be back soon enough though 🙂

"talap"

- In Greece the last challenge I ever competed in was a flag making challenge, and I lost. Now look, I am back and I think i turned out a great product that really helped the team win! Hopefully this is a good omen and will mean I will do better than I did in Greece (and hopefully all of the other non-main org seasons).

"phaluai"

- okay after getting to know Priscilla more I like actually really really lke her- she mentioned that no body literally checks in with her so this is a really good oppturnity to establish some Good trust and gain an ally and a vote. Plus my alliance literally wants to keep her so I'm very happy with my position on the tribe.

"talap"

- Iconically woke up to Nathan proposing me and him work together. I guess I'm a hot ticket item or something on the tribe since I have an alliance with everyone but Kostas who will probably be asking for one soon. Of course I'm not gonna say no to him, but it puts me in a sticky situation since I didn't want to get my game too intertwined with his since he will now be more difficult to get rid of. For now, though, I'm just gonna hope we stay away from tribal and my true allegiances on the tribe aren't exposed.

"phaluai"

- Okay so Alietta, who I trust a lot by now by the way because Alietta has shared a lot with me and I don't think that just anyone would do that, comes up to me with some information. Apparently she's been talking to Tyson and Tyson brought up that he doesn't like that Eva and I are close based on our facebook activity. I mean, I'm not going to deny to anyone that Eva and I are friends, you can see just from scrolling through our profiles. But like, there are so many people on this cast who have friends on this cast, like why single me out, the heck??? I've been helping him with idol guesses because I hoped to build at least some foundation of trust with him but it seems like I'm going to have to give some misinformation. I've already had my suspicions about Tyson because of the way our conversations usually go, but now my suspicions have some ground. If we go to tribal, and I'm not being totally played, which there's a possibility I am, then it's either Brett or Tyson for me. A part of me kind of hopes that we go to tribal so that all the lines are drawn but another part of me feels like going to tribal right now would be a death sentence. We'll see.

"talap"

- So right now my plan is to get Taylor closer to me and make him think I should definitely be his number 1 ally. This guy made it far in the game twice so I'm sure it will be good if I'm her right hand. I got my pretty secret idol at the temple and I'm planning on telling him I can only use it on someone else and not on myself. That way he'll be like.. "Damn I need this chick really close to me then" lol I dont think Taylor actually speaks like that but u get it. I have to be careful on who I tell this information to and what am I gonna tell the others about my trip to the temple.

Day 4
"phaluai"

- I'm sort of annoyed at the thought of people wanting to throw this challenge at all. When they KNOW this is the tribal I always die at, on the main org. It's good to be back because I can talk to people again. I filled everyone in on my ""reward"" if you can call it that. The glam manga makeover. I'm sort of conflicted about this whole throwing thing. Because it would definitely suck to go into a swap with only jake from my original tribe because he won't be able to vote. But it's just you can never feel safe in this game & even tho everyone wants Brett out, you just never know. And I'm especially a little nervous since I'm not in the Alietta/Tyson/Chris/Jake alliance 😂

"talap"

- I love when fucking meteorologists lie to me straight up and are like "ohhh it's supposed to rain today" then every hour the goddamn rain forecast gets pushed back an hour. I WANT TO GO HOME SO I CAN DO THIS CHALLENGE

"talap"

- We won rewarddd!!! I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Jace drew an amazing tiger, but there was something missing from his flag. It didn't pop enough, so I was worried for our chaces. Then Julez sweeps in with a brilliant flag using Jace's amazing art!!! We ended up winning, and Julez was sent off to the temple as a result.

Julez returned back today, and she told me she got a ""Friendship Idol"". It is to be used on somebody else before tribal in the future. She says she is only telling me!!! I feel like I can trust her. Her and Jace are my closest allies at the moment, and I would love to sit next to Julez at the end. It's too early to tell if that would be a good decision come that time, but I feel like I could beat her. I have to be careful though. I did lose to the sweet, innocent, social player the first time I played. If she really is only telling me then this might get played on me in the future, or I will be able to use it to my advantage down the road. Immunity challenge is up next. TROLOLOLOOOLOLOLOLOLOL. Love this challenge. Praying for the win.

"phaluai"

- I think the throwing thing isn't an option anymore. Thank goodness

"phaluai"

- I am very wary of Tyson right now. He seems to be really illogical and messy and there is no doubt in my mind that he has some sort of establishment with Brett. He seems to be finding reasons to make Pris the target if we went to a vote and I am telling you now; I am not letting Pris go home. Me, Chris and Jake have discussed Tyson separately. Chris made some silly suggestions such as blindsiding Tyson after Brett leaves but for me, that would give Tyson the chance to expose us and leave bigger targets on us since Pris and Julia are out of the loop on alliances. He also suggested lying to Tyson about someone wanting to vote him out but that's going to send Tyson even more paranoid and even more messy. I am finding the challenge throwing quite risky but this game is about risk. I am making sure I am contributing to the challenge so that it looks like I have tried. And if we lose, the only reason Brett will be staying in this game is if he has and idol and uses it. Bless him, he really has stepped up in this challenge and i feel guilty but maybe he realised his social game has been whack so needs protection through immunity? Whatever the case, he is no use to me in the game and that's every reason to get him out.

"phaluai"

- My mistake last time was not taking idols into consideration when playing the game. This time around, that's one of the things I am trying to improve. We shouldn't ignore them and exclude people for that reason. As much as I like everyone on the tribe, some people seem to ignore that but there is no harm in making someone feel comfortable to prevent people from using them.

"phaluai"

- this challenge isn't working on my phone so I'm going to sue apple HM

"talap"

- I hope people aren't starting to turn against Maya because of her performance in this challenge. She is really good for my game, I feel like if she goes further in this game her totally opposite timezone will disadvantage her socially and will make people have a harder time forming a strong connection with her. I know that she trusts me and I trust her, which would mean that we would have a strong connection going forward and she would be very unlikely to turn their back on me. If we do lose this challenge, which at this point seems lowkey unlikely, it should be Kostas who has done next to nothing, rather than Queen Maya who is TRYING sweetie.

"talap"

- So.. basically I'm the most active female in my tribe and right now I feel like WonderWoman on acid. Wait for them to take me out for being a strong female leading role bcause that's how society works.

"talap"

- I'm actually super wary of overplaying early on, especially since this does seem to be the love tribe and everyone wants to be super joined at the hip and shit. But I wanna give myself a slight leg up so I've already established with Jace that I really wanna work with him and starting tomorrow I'm gonna talk to Rhi, who I also really like about working with her. As it stands now we may not be going to tribal but mama always told me it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

"phaluai"

- YASSSSS CALL ME THE FUCK OUT. YASSSS https://i.imgur.com/egZVVTD.jpg

"phaluai"

- I AM SO PUMPED, all those idol guessses and trades I did with people finally payed off, I kept giving the same dud answer to people so I'm glad no body caught on, this is so much power and I'm so happy and ain't sharing it with Nobody. This is idol is going to be my secret, and my ticket to further myself in this game.im ready to SLIT throats in this game.

"phaluai"

- I am noticing that Brett's putting a ton of effort into this challenge. And yeah we should all put our maximum effort into this, but he's kind of going about it in a really intense way. He was like monitoring the submissions and reminded us of the order and all that which was really nice. That being said, I know he doesn't necessarily want the tribe to be immune, he wants himself to be immune. I'm guessing he knows that his name has been brought up a lot or might have his suspicions. He's also doing these kinda weird things like suddenly referring to me as my whole name instead of my nickname and not really saying his jokes anymore now that we're not leading anyone. He's also up really late compared to how long he usually is up. The only ones who are up at this time are Alietta, who is really busy so can't make it but told us in advance anyway, Jake, who's going to go to bed soon anyway, and Tyson. If Jake goes offline then we literally can't post after a certain point for hours. There's a chance we can make it up in the morning and catch up but for the time being, I'm mentally preparing myself for a tribal.

"talap"

- Oh my, I swear if we lose this 200+ point lead that I've been working to build up since 5:10 today.............

"phaluai"

- When people have a bad idea in this game sometimes it's best to just let them go ahead with it. My alliance of Alietta, Jake and Tyson (Tyson btw I do not fully trust as I know he's attempting to make side alliances) have decided to throw the challenge so we can send home Brett I of course agreed because I'm just the young simple Minded Chris who never could survive this game without their strategic brilliance. I don't agree with the move... but I won't fight it

"phaluai"

- When your tribe is losing the challenge but all they were doing is disagreeing over Ika Wong and Neda. Is now the right time to post I'm #TeamPetty?

"phaluai"

- I feel really guilty about attempting to throw the challenge, but...I can't risk going into a swap with someone who could potentially flip because he's not as well positioned on this tribe AND having Jake with a disadvantage when I could potentially need his vote. On top of that, making us look like non-threats could benefit us more. If we lose, it's going to be a long 24 hours.

"phaluai"

- If anyone thinks I am going to let Julia go home if we lose the immunity challenge, they have another things coming. It's my way or the highway. I am going to inform Julia secretly that she is in danger and promise her that I'm going to make sure I can do everything I can to make sure she doesn't go home. And when Julia stays, she will think that I campaigned hard for her to stay (which is kind of the truth). This will potentially set me up to have another close ally throughout the game and I need to establish that before any sort of swap so it looks like I cared before we do. I would do the same with Brett but I chose Julia because our conversations are more in-depth and it feels real, whereas with Brett it does feel forced.

"talap"

- Why am I catching some tea that Kostas is like perpetually drunk? Like.... girl. I KnOw who'S going home if in facT we lose this chAllenge, and Shit it aint me.

"talap"

- I feel like some of these people are trying really hard to flop once again. First Anna thinks she can go on a freaking holiday with us awake at 4 am during challenges and now Kostas thinks he can actually interfeere and try to sabotage the challenge without us doing anything about it. Is like it's a competition to be last place. This season's name is Last Stand not Last Flop.

"phaluai"

- I have faith, that I am not going home this tribal

"talap"

- Girl why is Kostas speaking in gibberish in the tribe chat, 'scuse me? Like uh WHAT? I don't understand. Sitting up here like a goddamn baby, googoo gaga on that ass. It's just not cute.

- Kostas really confuses me, one second he is typing like hes 2 handles of vodkas in, then the next second he's perfectly coherent.... Aside from that, he proposed us two working together and I had to agree even though I know he is public enemy number 1 and I will put in zero effort to change that mindset. He did tell me that he doesn't think there are any other alliances on the tribe which is good to hear because that may mean my alliance is the only one on the tribe. Right now it seems that we are most certainly safe this tribal, maybe not coming in first, but definitely safe. The only way for us NOT to be safe, is if Kostas has been snatching up the other tribes' uploaded photos the entire time, resulting in us getting deductions up the ass. He better hope for his sake that doesn't happen.

- on the bright side, I made it to day 4 🙂

- honestly alietta is annoying me 😂 "don't talk about this with that person." Controlling me like she's my mom or something. I think she may just be trying to help but sometimes it gets to be too much for me. Still love you though ❤️

- Okay so I've been throwing around Brett's name because well, that seems like the person everyone would be willing to vote for. And everything's all fine and dandy. Untillll Brett comes up to me saying he wants to save Julia, which I agree to because I really like Julia. Julia also promised to vote wherever I told her to go. Soooo Brett brings up Jake as a possible target. And Chris tells me that Brett told him the same thing about Jake. Now with this I immediately go back Jake that Brett's bringing his name up because I want to reinforce to Jake that I have his back. Unfortunately Jake wants me to convince Brett to vote for Julia. I would do that but if Brett tries to talk to Julia then Julia might lose her trust in me. I have Alietta, Chris, and Julia voting with me right now and I just hope that they stick with it, especially because Jake can't vote. Four is all we need and I'm super nervous.

- Julez came to me and asked if I wanted to work with her to find the idol. I thought this was a cool idea and it also showed that she potentially trusts me the most since she asked me first. She suggested we add another person as well and I was torn between Rhi and Maya but decided to go with Maya as I feel she is going to be closer to me in the long run. Even though our one clue so far was vague as hell, maybe three people compiling answers will allow us to find it, and if it is found, I hope whoever finds it (if not me) is truthful to the other two about it. It is interesting being in a kind of sub-alliance and I just hope word doesn't get out to Rhi and Taylor, causing them to potentially form a new majority with Nathan and Kostas.

- So Konstantinos is trying to form a majority alliance of him, Nathan, Jace & Taylor. Not sure his social game up to now could be any use in solidifying anything like that, hence my knowing about it LMAO.

"talap"

- So Julez completely crushed that reward challenge for us, so damn she’s one to watch for design challenges!

"talap"

- Trolol. Literally fuck whoever’s idea it was for this to be the challenge.

"talap"

- I have never been on such an active tribe for this challenge, and safe to say we fucking smoked it! Having said that, the way Konstantinos was with us in that challenge has certainly opened some cans of worms that he may be throwing things, cause his mistakes could have cost us that...
