This Could Have All Been Avoided/Confessionals

These are the confessionals made within the episode.

Day 11
"tambo"

- The tree mail is unnerving. I'm suspecting either a fake merge, a triple tribal after the immunity challenge and then 2 tribes of 8, or a schoolyard pick that goes into 3 tribes, then a triple tribal... Either way, I may be screwed. So I'm trying really hard in the reward challenge so that Tambo can get an advantage in the immunity and be safe if there's a triple tribal. Then maybe one of the other tribes can have fun in a group of 4.

But I'm pretty sure Zuma's going to try really hard this time... heh. I am going to kick their asses, I already have a 1:17 and I know exactly how to go through the challenge.

Also, can I say HOLY SHIT YES I OUTLASTED CHARLIE!!! And had a small part in the reason he went (Zuma's loss being due to my plan). I am so happy. Now to beat his 49 days... 6 more days until I can do that. As soon as Jhet goes, whether or not that will be my fault or not, I will be the last Nepali standing and hopefully the last female, too. Then we can go from there... I am climbing rungs on a ladder of goals, and with every person I outlast, I'm getting closer... and closer to the win.

"tambo"

- Well tree mail came today and excites me for the future. Someone please get me off Hufflepuff and take me to where i belong! Im set for this switch i feel i can do whatever i want come the switch because there are heaps of there people with bigger targets than me. i could easily manipulate people to becoming friends then have some kind of 'special bond'. I know my game, they don’t..

"tambo"

- Well... There goes my potential showmance. I guess the one good thing that came out of it is the Idol was flushed for now... But I would've preferred for it to stay in Charlie's pretty hands. However, Ash must be ELATED. She probably had a double orgasm when Charlie revealed he left with an Idol in his pocket and his tail between his legs.

At least now I know that Gerda is in a good spot on her tribe, and the winners seem to have a target on their back... Now I just have to gather a few people, just 2 people, who'd be ballsy enough to team up with them when the time is right.

This reward challenge is fun, it's a cool bonding experience for Tambo, even if we're about to have some potentially disruptive twist.

Day 12
"tambo"

- Sweet merciful Zeus, Tambo finally wins a challenge!

So with 19 people left and an upcoming tribal there seems two likely paths this game might take: once down to 18, one tribe will win immunity and the other three vote of one member, then we dissolve/swap into three tribes of 5; or we dissolve/swap into three tribes of six, then all tribes vote off one member. I think the latter is more likely.

Mike has apparently brought Adam into the fold so that we have Ash, me, Mike and Adam. BTW, do people really think Charlie's boot was so shocking or crazy? The revote seems to point to the most obvious answer: Lloyd and Charlie were on the outs and voted for Mike, and the other four split the votes between Charlie and Lloyd in case Charlie played the idol. So yeah, if Mike and Adam want to work with me they're going to have to lose Gerda and Hickman unless we do a Tambo-Zuma alliance but that's kind of boring. I've also told Ash we could probably rely on Hunter, Gerard and Henry if need be. Gosh, it looks like I have a few bright and exciting opportunities to explore. So Bright! So exciting!

"tambo"

- So the theme of this challenge for me was familiar faces: ugly celebrities and furry balls. The first part, THANKS TO ALFONS' WONDERFUL REWARD, was a piece of cake. We had the first letter of each name, and Taylor found Orlando Bloom. Our tribe really came together for this.

But now there's the furry ball challenge, that I know Uli is great at. I tried to outdo his PNG score for good measure, but he's aware that people are gonna try to come for his weave... So he definitely will do his best. He asked me if I'd outscored my last performance, and I told him I tried. I'm curious to know how he read that!

I hope our tribe will be safe. That's all I ask for.

"tambo"

- JESUS CHRIST I AM CLOSE

fuck i'm gonna get voted off if we lose

"tambo"

- Tambo, Mpilo and Rolih all won immunity, and Zuma's going to tribal tonight. I'm really happy that I'm safe, because if we lost, it would be my fault. I had the worst score by far.

Taylor's scared that I'm going to vote him off (good Taylor, be smart), I'm scared he's going to overpower me, other people with social games like mine threaten me. Ah, fear, it controls your game. Fear and paranoia caused me to blindside Kevin, and fear is driving me forwards. Fear is a good thing, fear is natural, fear is conquerable.

Anyways, everyone thinks the tribe swap is next, and I'm terrified that I'll get put on a bad tribe without any allies and get voted out! No way am I letting that happen. :)
