Do you participate in the sex? Is it with girls, guys, or both?
What is your favorite drug so far?

EPISODE TWELVE
It was obvious once the immunity challenge was posted that Shawna would win. She is the only one here who needs it badly enough to spend many hours upon it. Chelsea, Sandra, and myself tried to give it go in the last few hours - but this kind of immunity challenge required a lot of research and the amount of time we left to do it wasn't gonna cut it.
So Shawna got lucky with the type of challenge and escapes elimination for the second time. (Exiled last) People want to make this a lazy round and just get rid of Sekou once and for all. Hopefully nothing funky is going on..because Sekou needs to go. He has always felt like baggage and this extra spot of an empty player. It'll be a lot more interesting without him. I know he was a character in the beginning, but the guy hasn't been on since the third and apparently votes through text.
So this should be an easy round.....no auction things...no idols...just a straight unanimous vote for Sekou. (My alliance anyways) I can see Jay throwing a vote Steph's way. He really wants to blindside her.
There is a lot of talk of the end game still and it's pretty awkward when a bunch of people are all talking at the same time. The way I see relationships of people who are pretty close:
Sydney-Chelsea
Sydney-Mick
Sydney-Jay
Sydney-Tom
Tom-Sandra [Sydney?]
Sydney-Chelsea [Sandra?]
Sydney-Chelsea-Matt-Mick (Chelsea's supposed final 4)
Chelsea-Matt
Chelsea-Steph
Chelsea-Jay
and recently... Tom-Jay which I think is nothing.
^Such a mess.

EPISODE THIRTEEN
So here is the predicament. We should easily have 6 votes to send out Shawna and Steph, so that I don't need to use my idol. I trust that at least myself, Matt, Chelsea, Mick, Tom, and Jay will be voting that way. The problem is, Stephanie MIGHT have got something from the auction that she kept a secret. She is the kind of person who would keep that bottled up. Next, Shawna hasn't even bothered campaigning. Either she's resigned to going home or might have something up her sleeves? Then I sign on today to find out from Chelsea that Jay approached Matt about making a power move next round with Savage and Mike. This is probably a good thing, because now I can vote out Jay without any qualms. Chelsea and I assume the power move would be to blindside one of us. It could be me because of the idol. (I filled in Chelsea about Mick's idol, I trust those two to the end)
Cons to using Idol:
-It's a waste as I shouldn't be getting majority vote
Pros to using Idol:
-I advance to final 9 (two placements), where I should be secure in a voting block of me-Chelsea-Matt-Mick whilst pulling in Tom
-There is always Mick's idol as backup if I do somehow need it
-It's unknown if Steph or Shawna have a prize, and if they do, this is the round they would use it.
Pros outweigh the cons right now and I'm better safe than sorry. Can't be too sure of auction prizes that exist out there...and this is the time they'd come out.
I don't want to rely on an idol in the future, this game is all about numbers.

EPISODE FOURTEEN
You are probably like wtf just happened? Me too! It was really intense before the vote. Chelsea and I were talking and I was trying to get her to make me more comfortable, because as you know, I wanted to play the idol. Meanwhile, Matt's online and Jay decides to message him to talk about NEXT round. Jay tells Matt he wants to make a power move. Kiss of death. Matt reports to Chelsea, and we look at eachother (figuratively) thinking it's obviously one of us. Because who else leaving is a power move?
So I try and get Chelsea to push Matt into making Jay say names. After a while, she finally gets Matt to make Jay something. Because at that point, we only knew Jay wanted to pull in Savage and Mike and make something happen. The first thing Jay says is that Tom has some connections. (He gives a reason to target Tom: check) The next thing he says to Matt is that Tom is close to Sydney and Sandra. Then that Mick is also close to Sydney. (A reason to target myself, Mick or Sandra: check) Then Matt asks about Chelsea, and Jay responds with "I hate an obvious winner." (Reason to target Chelsea: check) So he basically spilled his guts out to Matt, who he foolishly didn't realize is super loyal to Chelsea. The fact that Jay wanted to pull in Andrew/Mike made me uneasy. He then tells Matt they can try and pull in Tom to vote out Chelsea, depending on the IC. I get that feeling that had Chelsea won, his next plan was to vote me out. OH! AND .. after I told Jay I probably was going to play the idol, he messaged Matt being "happy about me wasting it."
With all that being said, I wanted to change the vote from Steph to Jay. Steph does not have anything of value, because when Chelsea filled her in, she clearly would of played it.
Initially, Chelsea wanted to wait until after the vote and just let it be Shawna/Steph going. The thing is, they wouldn't have had the votes regardless, with Matt/Tom voting with us. But a couple reasons I didn't want to wait: I did NOT want Jay in the next round trying to make a big move, with me being a person who is an obvious threat. Secondly, I knew the challenge was going to be a plate smash type of thing, and that Stephanie wouldn't be here increasing my odds. Lastly and most importantly, I felt a lot more comfortable SAVING my idol by voting for Jay. Jay only had an immunity necklace that he neglected to use. Had to ensure that was flushed with him in a blindside or he would of pulled it next round, making it even longer before we could vote him off.
I do feel bad. I have been getting along with Jay and I hope it doesn't affect us outside the game. It was hard to do, but he brought it upon himself.
I am very glad I saved the idol and now won immunity! No more paranoia at least for my own safety right now. We agreed on Steph being the next to go still, for still playing both sides. Haven't forgot that. Mike also told me he was in debt to me. I think Sandra is going to want him out bad, fearing I'm so close to him or something. But she isn't getting her way. I have more power than Sandra at this point in the game. I don't see her overpowering me from here on out. *Knocks on wood*
Rough night, but I am satisfied with all that went down.

If you successfully get Steph out next, what's your plan after that?

Look at your last question Boo  If you successfully get Steph out next, what's your plan after that? After Steph, I'd probably try and get Andrew out. He is apparently a bigger challenge threat than I'd thought. That and the fact he is such a wild card. I'm trying to get on Mike's good side by having him last as long as possible. Really trying to show him that I'm trying to help him. There is no way I'm promising him the end game, as he is a Jury threat with three of his alliance mates there, but I'm at least helping him have more shots at immunities. That's something anyway. So hopefully when Mike goes to Jury, he'll be on my side there. I'm thinking after Steph hopefully leaves, that Andrew, Mike, and Sandra could be options. Naturally I have the worst relationship with Andrew, so I'd go for him first. |

EPISODE FOURTEEN
So tonight's vote seems set in Steph going, with at least myself, Mick, Chelsea, Matt, and Tom on board. That is 5 and it should get it done. With my immunity, at least I don't have to sweat it. Removing Steph is removing someone who will actively try and flip the script. I can't have that around. Sandra, Mike, and Andrew all want to keep her - showing why she is dangerous. I think sending Steph to the Jury now will have a couple of them talk about how it was a bad move for her to not flip earlier. So anything she says in there won't hold much weight.
So Chelsea, Matt, Mick, and I came up with an alliance name that is way less dorky than the Power Rangers. We've been called the "Capitol" from the Hunger games for awhile now....so why not make ourselves the capitol's bitches? The Careers!
Mick + Marvel = Marvick
Sydney + Glimmer = Glimney
Matt + Cato = Catt
Chelsea + Clove = Chlove
The slogan for the careers is "Like it or not, the winner will be one of them" Which is hopefully true in that it can be - me!! 
Unlike the Power Rangers, there is no reason to flaunt this in the signatures. It's all in good fun for confessional.
So yes this is our dorky alliance name! Now:
Oh and I'm going to do my best to get Tom as far as possible. Not sure what's going to happen down the road, but I don't plan to vote him out.

EPISODE FIFTEEN
The Majority Rules challenge turned out mostly like I thought. It wasn't surprising that Chelsea received all of the flattering strategic questions. I don't believe them to all be true, but I know everyone thinks it. I did tie with her, which I reported to Lex. It's important that I squeeze out any competition win over Chelsea at this point...because everyone has such high opinions of her this game. So if she is dominant in the challenges when people already view her as the leader, it makes it more tough. She is beatable though, because I did get answers for the "majority" of some important answers. Like who to trust with life and who made the most friends. That is an element of this game I think I've played well at.
I think I am in a better position than anyone. (Do not let that be the kiss of death statement  ) I have access to two Hidden Immunity Idols, and I have three people who all see me as a #1. (Mick, Tom, and Chelsea - I'm probably tied with Matt for her?? Either way I don't think she'll ever put my name down)
This round, it's between Andrew and Mike obviously. Sandra is once again pushing for Mike, but it should be Savage that goes. Communication is a two way street, and the street he is on leads to Ponderosa. I told Chelsea to put that on her vote.. LMAO I doubt she does as it's so bitchy. Andrew is the person I have no relationship with. He doesn't talk to anyone and I'd only keep him over Mike if he didn't win that Immunity Challenge two rounds ago. He has better odds of going on an immunity run than Mike, so for that reason, he should go.
I'm surprised that Mike got majority for the next to go question, as we had all agreed on Andrew going before the challenge. I'm also surprised Matt got the hero question as we all discussed him being such a villain with lying to people during the Jay vote. Don't think it matters very much. Just interesting to note.
It's going to get a lot more sneaky from here on out.

So even though Chelsea gets to keep her immunity, I officially "won" that challenge. Which puts my immunity wins to 3 and hers to 2. Can only help me!
