Episode Three - Do I Know You from Somewhere?

[John]

Just as I was headed off to bed last night, I got a surprise message from Cody.  It'd been three months since we'd spoken.  We cleared the air, and I believe it was genuine.  There wasn't really much in the way of game talk, but I'm just happy to be back on speaking terms with him.

Lol that this has been my only confessional for the round. Chalk it up to no developments whatsoever. I practically did the challenge singlehandedly. Kurtis was once again the only other person contributing. Not a word from Tina. Not a word from Zavi. I still can't quite seem to connect to Jacob. He doesn't seem very present even when he is around. I can only assume we have a shuffle coming up, and I guess we'll see what that brings for the future of my game. I just feel like we're letting Sandy down.

If I assume that Tina will vote for Jacob this time because he keeps calling her a bitch for no reason, and then Jacob self votes by not answering TC questions, I'm so tempted to finish him off by throwing a vote his way. It's a pretty one too.

[John]

I decided to pass on my opportunity to vote Jacob out. I decided that I couldn't risk having Zavi and Kurtis not trust me after the vote. If they'd been around and I could've tested the waters a bit, I might've gone for it. Hopefully no one else beats me to the punch, because I have an amazing vote designed for him.

I'm laughing at Skylar calling out Kurtis on old TC results. It's a fitting reflection of how active anyone on my old tribe is that people are worried about results from two TCs ago for a tribe that doesn't even exist anymore. I still can't shake the feeling that Kurtis is a snake though, so it's too bad more people aren't seeing the comment.

[John]

For posterity, here's the pretty vote I made for Jacob.
