The Kingpin Is Here/Confessionals

Day 9
"kawau"

- Wow, they voted out Kyle! A little surprising, given that Daniella and Alissa seemed practically invisible. But he would have been Kawau's first boot anyway, so no big loss. The question is whether Charlie and Ci'ere were behind the vote or Ci'ere in Alex. I have a hard time believing Ci'ere was the one in the dark.

"taieri"

- I'm disappointed that Kyle was voted out. I really thought he would have made it to the end. Most of my tribe has bonded great together.

"kawau"

- And now Cheryl is telling us Kyle was like a kid to her and Chelsea is saying she didn't like him, such strong feelings for someone that I barely spoke to in the game. Maybe he's made big waves before and was trying to lay low this time? Who knows?

"poukai"

- For awhile I was worried about the challenge and that all my efforts would be for naught, but it turns out that Charlie did even better at this challenge than me. Crazy. We should surely place now, right? I wonder if Charlie or someone else will get some sort of individual prize for getting a ton of items.

"taieri"

- I'm really not enjoying this tribe as much. I felt like I knew what was up with every person in Kawau because I spoke with all of them, but the girls are cryptic in Taieri. Maybe I just can't really relate to them because I'm older, but I'm pretty sure that Brittany and Faith aren't revealing much to me, and Regan won't even talk to me. I'm having to rely on Brian to get along with the girls and to let me know if any things up. It's convenient because I trust him and we're still controlling the tribe, but it'd be nice to have a little more autonomy.

"kawau"

- Like in NuKawau is amazing. I have 2 of my closest boys, a nice romance with the cutest mom ever Cheryl and a nice friendship with Chelsea. And a Jenna who is obviously on the outs. The girls have been quick about dissoliving and promising votes to the guys. The Guys alliance stays strong and we have a nice co-group with 2 lovely women

"poukai"

- Lowkey if anyone doesn't submit for this scavenger hunt challenge after the shit I went through for it I'm going to flip my shit and go absolutely psycho

"taieri"

- So Berk is planning on some uprising if we make merge time, and a swift puncture in our original Fab 4 alliance with Ci'ere's elimination. I'm going to pretend I'm down, but I'm actually not feeling it. Like if we make it, I'm going to be sure to warn Ci'ere that he needs to be careful. I want him out, but not like that. I need him to make it farther in this game.

"kawau"

- This greek guy is not going anywhere!!!! I have a F3 with Casper and Berk, a F3 with Casper and Matt P and a F2 with Cheryl. And also the 5 guys alliance adfing Joshua

"poukai"

- I'm actually a little worried again about the results of the challenge. If anyone on the other 2 teams is an avid outdoors enthusiast (something not out of the question for Survivor players), they could easily get things on the list that we did not successfully get. And I'm not sure I can make my case that I can win the team comps at tribal council if I'm not actually winning comps.

"taieri"

- I feel bad for lying, but sorry not sorry. If I have to play this game like this, I will. I don't have a problem betraying people, even if they're my closest ally. I don't feel as bad. Berk is willing to betray everyone but me. Sounds nice.

"kawau"

- I killed it in that challenge. If live animals and Survivor buffs were a little more easily accessible I think we would've gotten all of them. I'm a little surprised Kos doesn't have live chickens in his backyard. I could imagine him running out and biting the head off one when he gets hungry.

"poukai"

- Alex is an asset to the team, i can't deny that, but his social game is so bad, i just don't know what the hell he's doing. So he better hope we start winning challenges.

"kawau"

- I stand right in the middle. I need to keep being goopd at challenges and stay in the middle. Right now I am the king pin. Everyone protects me, but it won' t be long until someone realises what a pain in the ass I am and they start attacking me. Can' t wait to re-establish my friendship with Ciere and Brian and make the girls think I have flipped to their side.

Day 10
"poukai"

- I'm glad we aren't going to tribal tonight, but it's a shame we had so many ways we almost got that 1 or 2 extra points. If these reward events grant idols, then perhaps it is even good we don't go to reward. I love getting idols, but if they're randomly attached to rewards then there's too much of a risk someone else on my team could get one and use it against me the next time we lose a challenge. So I guess I'm okay with how things are. Yeah, that's what I'll tell myself..

"taieri"

- So Faith is literally boring to talk to - Im not one to call ppl out on their bull but i literally had to talk to her first and she's like "he's not around" HONEY IM NOT AROUND FOR YOU. My day 1s know where im at, and clearly when i tried talking to you, you weren't interested

"kawau"

- People seem to be trusting me. Why is everyone keep coming to me? How did I make myself sooo trustworthy? Kostas the kingpin is here!!!! Remember him!!!!

"taieri"

- Bummer that we lost. Goddamn, the others found so much stuff. I feel like my usefulness should push me through today, so I guess we have to hope and pray.

"kawau"

- Thanks to me, our tribe wins again (with some help from Kos and Cheryl). By one point! Now I feel justified for every bit of time I spent searching for all those items. Even lighting a mini-fire in my backyard today just so we could get a little bit more of an edge. I think I more than made up for my pathetic performance in the puzzle challenge.

"taieri"

- Brittany isnt trusting me and im like: GIRL WE BOTH FROM TUMBLR I KNOW HOW YOU PLAY I CAN LITERALLY GET YOU OUT DONT MAKE ME WRITE A 500 WORD ESSAY CITED AND EVERYTHING I WILL DRAG THY ASS DOWN, Anyways, the vote should be regan

"taieri"

- I'm kinda scrambling, but that's only because I don't want to be blindsided.

"kawau"

- In other news, Casper's brother was freakin' STABBED! How crazy is that? I'm assuming it was a mugger-type situation. Luckily it sounds like he's ok and the wounds weren't too damaging. But still, damn. My heart goes out to the guy.

"taieri"

- Josh making the strategical decision to pretend he has no idea what's happening to the girls? Check plus on acting ability. They ate it up.

"kawau"

- Last thing for now, I'm a bit concerned for my core 4 buds Berk and Brian over on NuTaieri. I think they'll be fine though. Hopefully Josh and his friend Brittany stick with them and they vote out Faith or Regan. Even in the worst case scenario, I feel like Brian would be targeted before Berk, so my final 2 buddy should be safe.

"taieri"

- I might actually want to stay with these girls...

"kawau"

- So I told the entire tribe my brother was stabbed last night and is in the hospital... I would like to say my little brother is sitting back home right now, watching Jerry Springer, but I don't think we get that show in the Netherlands. My brother is fine and has not been stabbed by some crazy person last night. Right now I've not been able to integrate myself well into the tribe. I just haven't had the time, but I know I will have from today onwards. Still, I'm probably a bit behind everyone in this area and quite frankly I haven't even touched enough base with the guys to be sure of my position in this tribe. I hope this lie will be my way in and that it will garner some sympathy. Let them think that the reason I could not do anything for this challenge was my concern about my beloved brother who was involved in a horrible stabbing and not just me being way too hungover to even set a foot outside. The next couple of days I'll play up my anger and shock at the situation and subtly will reference my appreciation of what a great distraction Survivor: New Zealand is. Other reason: I was bored... You're probably thinking what an unethical evil douche bag... To be honest, something I'm not very often in this game, Survivor for me is the opportunity to be that evil douche bag and do all those unethical things that I could never even dream of in real life.

"kawau"

- This is sucha tragedy. Pit in a deserted island, naked, probably raped lets face it, haven' t eatten anything. And you make me wait for the only ray of light I have managed to see in 8 days. WHY ARE YOU SO EVIL? WHYYYYYY???? Oh I feel my body turning off. Melting on the fire pot with the rice. HII is the only salvation. Rice will be awful with my flesh over it. I mean, Chelsea insisted on eatting it without any coconut dust. WHY WOULD SHE NOT WANT COCONUT DUST IS SHE CRAZY? Rice could be so tasty. Maybe if we had some peas. I always make sauce with my peas and rice. And then some meat. A nice well cooked steak. With our rice and peas. That' s what I call dinner!

"taieri"

- So we finally lost a challenge, and I couldn't be more excited. Finally some action. It looked like the girls were going to push to vote Josh out due to inactivity and being useless in challenges, but really I think they're just afraid of giving the guys a majority. I was able to pull a lot of strings and convince Brittany that he was in her pocket, so now it's going to be Regan tonight, 5-1. If that's what happens, the girls will have made a huge mistake. I plan on bringing the guys together and voting off the girls if we lose again. The only issue now is keeping Brittany and Faith feeling safe (which is Brian's job) and making sure Josh doesn't say something dumb that gives us away (my job). This is my ticket to the merge, so I'm really happy about this. Definitely a successful first tribal if it goes as planned.

"kawau"

- I mean, Jenna is inctive!!! And I dont know what Chelsea is doing but she is doing nothing, she did gave us the reward with that starfish though. Thank you girl. I will write a nice tribute for you at F3.

"kawau"

- WOW we won again!! This is so great. I really love all my tribe mates. Hopefully we can keep this up and go in as a strong group of six for merge!!

"kawau"

- Crap I have no idea how to solve the puzzle. I may have to share with casper.

"taieri"

- Messy Confessional 4? for New Zealand
