All is Fair In Love and War/Confessionals

Day 40
"watubela"

- Hahaha! Topher flipped, but I played the idol on Andrei and sent Miguel out! The guy who wanted me out since pre-merge has left the game because of me! Better yet, I am now one of two winners to ever make it past day 39. And I'm in the final five, meaning I've reached the season finale! Woo! Time to try my hardest to become the first two-time winner!

Also, someone needs to get Adam to stop harassing me after that. God.

"watubela"

- Hell yes! I have won my first ever individual Immunity! I'm in the final four!

So now we must find the idol to keep Adam from finding it. Then we can vote him out and I can officially call myself the Bongo Slayer. Topher swore he wouldn't flip, so I worked with both him and Andrei separately to come down to four possibilities for the idol. Andrei, Topher and I got our's wrong, meaning Natalie's is right. However, she's been too busy to submit it. So I'll just be a good pal and submit for her.

Also, I didn't tell Andrei and Topher I worked with the other one. They can't know because they hate each other. I was shaking so much at the possibility of Andrei winning Immunity, meaning I'd become Adam's target. Then it would be a scramble for the idol. I love the feeling of safety so much. I've never felt it before. :')

"watubela"

- Here it is. My confessional based on the last few votes. Sole goes, and then we have this immunity challenge. I know I have to win, and my mindset was getting to F5 and then winning out. So for the past few weeks I've been planting the seed in Luke's head that I'm going on vacation from Thursday to Monday, and have no opportunity to get near a computer making me pretty much a jelly-fish at F4. So, for the F6 Challenge I worked my ass off, got an absurd score because of the lag I found, and win immunity ensuring my spot in F5. That was such a memorable win because right before Luke had told me I was going if I didn't win. I work my ass off to convince Luke to vote Andrei, and Miguel talks to Topher. Topher doesn't reply to Luke, and all of a sudden that raises his curiosity. I knew someone had the idol over there, but didn't expect Luke to play it on Andrei. I wouldn't have cared, BUT TOPHER FINALLY FLIPPED AND OUR NUMBERS GET IDOLED OUT. We were so close, but so far at the same time. I go into the next immunity challenge with a chip on my shoulder realizing if I don't win I'm going home. I literally worked on this challenge for 3 hours, trying to look at old confessionals and match up writing styles, but just couldn't figure any of them out. Also, the idol speculation is at an all-time high. They re-hid the idol and I was sure I'd find it, but got the clue too late. I've guessed a bunch, but I'm assuming it has been found by now. However, remember the seed I planted with Luke? My only hope is to push that and let him think he'd win immunity again at F4 against an invisible opponent in myself, Topher, and Nat.

This might be my last confessional. If it is, I'm proud but not satisfied. I made it to F5 outlasting every other Villain, and all but 4 Heroes. I've won 4 individual immunities, and I successfully helped take out players like Sole, Sam, Jessy, and some big Villains. But, I haven't played to my full potential and if I'm the player I know I am, I will get out of this mess. Thank you hosts for giving me this opportunity, love you guys for all the work you put in.

Let's do this.

"watubela"

- I had good instincts about Topher’s intentions and Luke did end up needing to use that Idol on me… So we successfully got rid of Miguel, but the price for that was that an Idol was replanted and the hosts decided that we all deserved a very helpful clue. Fine, that wouldn’t be their first questionable decision after all… Oh and by the way, the challenge is a crapshoot, so that means even Topher can win it if he bothers to submit. Wonderful.

"watubela"

- I had a very interesting conversation with Natalie in which she expressed that she thought Luke was going to be hard to beat in a jury vote… And she might have a point, but what are my other options? Handing the game to Adam? Ew. Taking Topher to the end? God no. I’m not going to stop her from voting against Luke if he loses the Final Immunity after Adam’s gone, but I mean… What worries me the most is that she might start seeing me as a threat, and if Adam gets to her at the wrong time, he could do some major, irreversible damage to my game.

"watubela"

- After a long struggle that included two particularly embarrassing Idol Guesses, I found the right combination, but someone found it first. Topher is denying it, Natalie is denying, Adam is denying… And the one I trust the least is obviously Adam. At least, Luke won Immunity, which will make him a lot more receptive to throwing away his vote at Topher if push comes to shove, but the worst case scenario would be Adam successfully using his Idol for leverage with Topher and getting him to flip, causing a 2-2-0 vote… And I know Natalie really wants to win too, and more importantly, I know Adam is going to scramble to make the tie go his way, so I’m hoping for the best and expecting the worst. It would be better for my game if Adam went home, but frankly I don’t think think Topher deserves to be here at all, so if I finally send him home, I’ll be more than happy, even if he promised not to flip again. It’s cold, it’s cruel, but screw him.

Day 41
"watubela"

- So because Andrei and I screwed up the idol sequence, Adam found it. Due to this, we decided ultimately to blindside the biggest goat ever, Topher. Now we just need to beat Adam in the final Immunity challenge to get a good path to the finals. Let's bring it on!

"watubela"

- Welp, Topher is gone! A tiny part of me felt bad because he’s not a bad person, but I know he does not like me whatsoever, and the feeling is mutual, so… Shanking him after all the frustration he caused me felt good. Also, I finally made the Top 4, so yay to that! I finally get to write Rites of passage, which are one of my favourite part about the game. It’s going to be fun to reflect on the great moments I shared with some, the shade I’ve thrown at others, but the game is not over: I’m going to hold this ceremony as much as I can to make sure Adam does not have too much time to dedicate to the Final Immunity Challenge. And he probably caught onto that, but I don’t care. All is fair in love and war, and I love Adam, but this is war, and he knows it, so it’s all good. If he can win Immunity by making his computer lag, the strategy of putting off the Immunity Challenge should be fair game.

"watubela"

- SO I got on late because of real life issues (cough school) and Andrei and Natalie had done jack in the Final Immunity Challenge, so Adam was massively leading to the point where he couldn't be beaten. So I made a deal with him. He swore to God that if I threw the challenge, he would vote Andrei next. That's exactly what I did. So now apparently the final three should be me, Natalie and Adam. I wouldn't have thrown it if I had the slightest chance of beating Adam, which I don't with how far his lead is. So my plan is to come up with a mind blowing FTC performance and try to beat Adam to become the winner of Heroes vs Villains. Let's see how things go from here on...

"watubela"

- So Adam won the Final Immunity. And pretty much the whole game. To be honest, it might be better to be voted out at final four than to face the Hell of Final Tribal Council against Adam.

Here's some weird stuff that happened: Natalie told us she wants to be voted out because she doesn't think she deserves to be in FTC and doesn't want to take the spot of someone who deserves it. She told me in return for voting her out, she would give me her Jury vote. Although it's good to have an ensured vote, I feel so bad about breaking my deal with her. She's a true hero, that's for sure. However, Adam told me he still wants to vote Andrei, but Andrei seemed willing to vote Natalie.

Also, Adam told Andrei that I threw the challenge. Coincidentally, at the same time I told Andrei that I lied to Adam about throwing the challenge. In reality, I actually did. But no one needs to know that til the season is over. ^__^

"watubela"

- So I told Adam I would vote Natalie, and he responded with saying he's gonna vote me because he has less chance of winning at FTC against Andrei and I. I don't blame him, but now I need to talk to Andrei to ensure he votes Natalie. I'm trying so hard to get Natalie to either self-vote or vote Andrei. But then I risk going 2-1-1. Oh God Andrei, get online!

Day 42
"watubela"

- So Natalie went out, leaving myself, Adam and Andrei as the final three. I'm now going to work my ass off to beat Adam at Final Tribal Council. His arrogant behavior last night just made me determined to beat him. It's come down to this, let's work to become the first two-time winner!

"watubela"

- So let's go back a few days. I sent my last confessional last week when I thought I was going home. Approximately 55 minutes later I get the news. I'M THE PROUD OWNER OF THE FINAL HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL. I gave in my final guess and it was good enough to get me to F4. I now had to keep this to myself, and only tell Topher so he proceeds to vote out Andrei, and I win at F4. Well, NO. Because Topher, for some reason doesn't listen to me when I tell them the Heroes are splitting. By him not splitting, he voted himself out of this game. I think it was such a moronic thing to do, but I'm in the F4 and that's all that matters.

Early on I knew the only 2 things I can control are the competitions that involve willing yourself to post, not ones based off of getting a certain score. So I worked and worked on the two Endurance parts, which would give me the solid victory had I won both. AND I FUCKING WON ENSURING A SPOT IN THE F3. This was so satisfying after fighting for my game and never giving up.

Now once again, the vote is insane. During the competition I told Luke had he fell off the I wouldn't vote for him...but then he decides to vote out Natalie who will 100% be a vote for Luke. If Luke wants to do things that will better his game, I have to make sure that he will not have the argument of "I've never had a vote cast against me", so I voted him out, and Natalie goes.

Now, for FTC. I made it, it's an accomplishment at that. Yet, my business is unfinished. Time to be the first TWO-TIME WINNER IN THE HISTORY OF THE GAME. Thank you hosts, and I hope to have proven myself as a person, and a player in this game! I have overcome the odds, I have taken down players in my path, and I have worked harder than ever. This is my time.
