Round Twooo

[bryan]

I'm indifferent to Jermin leaving. Didn't know the guy. *shrugs*

Glad the challenge isn't today as I'm recovering from day drinking yesterday. Good thing I didn't start at 11 am like they wanted to do. I'm excited for the challenge though! I love live challenges when I am available. Hopefully we can crush 'em again.

The tree mail videos are lovely. Nice job!

K, gonna go eat my Cheesecake Factory cheesecake. Be jealous!

Didn't know whether to answer these here or in PM.

Confessional Questions #1:

1. What were your thoughts on Jermin being voted out of La Arana?

I don't really have any feelings about it. I never talked to him, but I heard he was part of a pairing, and it's always a good thing for me when one of those is squashed. Hopefully the La Arana people still haven't gotten their shit together.

2. How has the group dynamic changed since the last Immunity Challenge/Tribal Council?

I think it really helped us bond. I love when challenges do that because tribal unity = <3 . We did find out that Dave made an alliance with everyone, and he was mixing people's names into different alliances, so he's at the bottom now. I think the immunity challenge also helped determine who we wanna stick around because TJ, Cody, TQ, and I knew the most about how the challenge worked, so it led to us making an alliance.

3. You guys arrive in the game to be divided into three tribes, what was your initial reaction? How do you feel about it at this point and how do you see it playing out?

I like three tribes. It makes me feel more likely we'll win immunity, and it's usually easier to strategically maneuver within a small tribe.

4. How does knowing about the partners twist and how two people are connected help you for your strategy?

I guess it helps me know who to split up, but I was never even worried about this twist. I often play games where everyone is interconnected, and it's brutal because friendships are destroyed and feelings are hurt, so a couple people knowing each other and maybe sticking together causes me no stress whatsoever. Though maybe I will be able to use those connections against someone in the future if others are afraid of it.

5. The Hidden Immunity Idol has the potential to be bought every round at Tribal Council, how does this change your voting tactics?

It's gonna have to be a blindside more often than not, which is kinda difficult because I know how people like to go invisible/ignore you when they're voting for you. I don't want it to lead to split votes because I'm never comfortable with those. I haven't thought much about it. I probably should! Hahaha

6. On a scale of 1 - 5, rank your tribe mates.

1. TJ - Um, duh, he's the cutest one. I just talk to him the most, I guess. And I feel like I know most about him, and he likes my Offensive friends while most people loathe us.
2. Sassy - She called me her showmance. I guess I could swing that if I had a fluffer. And also "alexpomales is trashy" LOVE HER.
3. Cody - Ah, this is hard! I like him and TQ a lot. I like this whole tribe so much. He introduced me to The Most Popular Girls in School and sympathizes with me about Chronicles All Stars.
4. TQ is only this low because I don't talk to him that much. But he is really cool and knows someone else who went to my college. I love the small world.
5. Davey - I still like him even though he made an alliance with everyone. I can't really hate on that when someone tells me I'm beautiful. Hahaha

7. Where do you stand in terms of alliances? Who are you with, who do you trust most, who are you excluding etc.

Sassy told her I need to help her in this game. Sure, I can do that for a while. TJ, Cody, TQ, and I made a solid alliance after the challenge. We think it's a good thing because we most know how everything works in a game like this. Dave made an alliance with everyone. I trust TJ, Cody, and TQ the most so far. Sassy is a cool girl, and I like her but don't trust her yet. I do not trust Dave at all. He's probably the first gone if we lose.

8. What is your next objective in this game moving forward?

Win all the tribal challenges. I'm excited for tonight's even though I'm skipping Teen Wolf to attend the challenge grrrr

Also, TJ is the only one to Facebook friend me and send me Candy Crush lives. Number one.

I KNEW it would be in the All Stars board! I looked in Hawaii because I thought All Stars was too predictable, and if I wouldn't have thought so hard about it, I would have found that damn flag without a clue and we could have really stomped them. Smh.

Here's to hoping Dave rocks this puzzle because I wanna do it. I love those jigsaw puzzles and am really good at them, but it's not worth five hours. :/

Am I pathetic for checking these results while I'm drinking at someone's house? Idgaf. Yaaaaay we won! I will forever love the number 8129 and how we got it so early. Maybe I could have tried a little harder on the code had I not had to get up at 6 am, but such is life. I hope green loses so we have one up on each tribe.
