Round 4 - Overkill

[Shawna Mitchell]

Okay, our tribe went a little nuts in posting for this but I think the fact that we were three-time losers made us really want this bad. So, we won and we don't have to vote out another person and become a tribe of five. I wanted Salchicha to lose so they had to get rid of someone but they will probably just vote out Sekou and it won't matter. Still, it's good to see them finally lose.

This HII clue business is just annoying. I don't like that we have to give it away or that another tribe gets to decide who gets it on our tribe. I am going to just guess that BJ has talked to Bayonaca and they are going to pick him to give the clue to. There has to be a reason he is pushing so hard for either Savage or Misty to get the clue. Misty picked Savage first for her tribe - she had to have a reason to do that. I know there were negotiations so I think the first 3 or 4 people for each tribe are probably/possibly in an alliance. I know it's true for our tribe. Also, it's obvious that she's the invisible user and is not inactive. I think Mick and Chase might just be following and not really have thought this through, but anyway it should be randomized and I hope Tammy gets it over Misty. From the information Aras has given me, Tom supposedly has an Idol now. If he's in an alliance with Misty/Savage and whoever else, that is just giving them extra fuel to have the chance at a second HII.

I just made an official F2 deal with Semhar. I believe Amber trusts me and I tell her enough to make sure she does. I got her to change her vote to Tammy for the HII clue even though I think she's afraid of making BJ mad. That's a problem and I really think I should have pushed for BJ to go last time. I have a pretty good relationship with Chase, I think. He is so hard to read sometimes and he's online without really being here a lot, but just the fact that he brought up BJ to me as a possible vote last round makes me think he trusts me. Mick seems like a nice guy but obviously following the guys. BJ needs to go next if we lose again, which I hope we don't.

OMG Aras was voted off? WTF happened??

[Shawna Mitchell]

I spoke with Chase last night. He told me he knows who has all the clues. I told him I got the first one but had promised Aras I wouldn't say anything and I didn't want to break my word. That's half true, since I did tell Amber/Semhar about the clue. Anyway, I told him that it was a crapshoot for me since I only had the first clue and I think he believed me. I told him Tom probably has one HII since he had 3 clues. He said Tom said he didn't have it but I pointed out the way the clues work and he agreed with me Tom probably does have it.

Then, the subject of BJ came up. I told Chase I felt BJ had a clue and that was his motive for pushing to get Misty (or Savage) the clue. He had to have made a deal. Chase confirmed BJ does have a clue. He said BJ didn't tell him but Tom did. He also brought up that BJ should go if we lose again. I 100% agree. Not that I want to lose. Tonight's challenge is live and BJ and Semhar both said they won't be here. Chase will probably be on his phone. So, if it's our team in this challenge still, we'll probably lose. We're down to 21 people now, though, and I think we could be swapping tribes.

I spoke to Amber this morning and she told me BJ was mad at her for not "trusting" him and voting to give Misty the clue. Really BJ? People should trust you? Per Amber, BJ failed to mention the real reason he wanted Misty to have it and that he got a clue in the deal. He's probably just mad because they are mad at him for not doing his part in the deal. Hopefully that means they won't make that deal with him again.

The other thing that Amber said that's disturbing is that Sandra knows who I am. She asked her directly and there were only two people who knew. Aras and Amber. I don't believe Amber said anything and I really did trust Aras, too, but he has to be the culprit. Sucks but I guess that's what happens when you try to play alias and end up telling 1 or 2 people. It gets out.

[Elyse, Slayer of Sausages]

Yeah, the same thing happened to me once. Nowadays if I alias, I tell absolutely no one. (Doesn't mean I don't still get found out sometimes, mind you, but still. )
