Round 16 (F7)

[Matt Quinlan]

Mike and I just talked for a few hours where he went in depth with all the decisions that he's made in this game and why. I find it interesting and feel sympathy for him, but the whole time, I couldn't help think jury votes.

The target is Mike this round, but it's possible still that this may be the round that we blindside Sandra out of the game. Everything that has happened in the past few days makes me feel more confident that the final three will be me, Chelsea, and Sydney. Can I beat them? I actually do have a chance. Sandra, for instance, is targeting me. Will she feel 'betrayed' that I voted for her when she's doing the same to me? I doubt it. Even though I haven't been as prominent as Chelsea and Sydney from a strategic point, little things like that could make the difference.

I'm still going to try to win immunity every round from here until the end for the extra precaution.

[Matt Quinlan]

Not that it matters, but I'm still a little annoyed that the previously invisible Tom came out of nowhere to beat me in the challenge. I don't think I needed immunity, so it shouldn't matter that I lost it.

So, we'll all vote Mike out. Next round will be the round where Sandra goes, and I actually hope that I don't win immunity so she can go out of the game targeting me. There's no reason why she'd hold that against me.

Other than that, nothing new is happening. There's so much talk now about end-game with the Careers and which jurors we think will vote for who mainly. I think the boot order is set as Mike, Sandra, Tom, and Mick as the next four to go.

[Matt Quinlan]

Another thought: Sandra seems to hardly be focused anymore in this game. Before I stated that I thought she was All-Star worthy, but now she doesn't IM anyone to talk about the game and often forgets to vote or do challenges.
