Tamanaco Tribe

So I have so many strategic thoughts in my head for long term going on right now. I'll post them at some point

And hosts I apologize to you for my relative inactivity. Like I said this week will be the week from hell. I won't even be here for the challenges or TCs on Wednesday or Thursday..potentially Sunday as well. Assuming I'm still in ofc

now I just have to hope no one flips because we can't survive having both idols at the merge

Where do you stand right now? What's your plan? What do you make of the new Mariche tribe? What do you make of Sean's Idols?

Frank or Lex is going home. Quite honestly I hope it's Frank. He manipulates the alliance too much. I don't trust him going forward. Lex I have a great connection with. Hope to offer him F4 with me, Kimmy, Lindsey, and him at merge.

Luckily both idols should be flushed. Sean isn't stupid enough to risk taking someone at their word. It won't surprise me if Frank actually does vote Lex though.

new Mariche is clearly the same way we are minus idols. Lindsey not giving up immunity essentially says that

Merged NEEDS to be next round, yet it won't surprise me if it isn't

Frank's already throwing Lex under the bus. I'm worried something will happen where one of us goes and NEITHER IDOL IS PLAYED. If that happens, I will kill Frank

and now Lex is worried about this. Ugh if Tribal was tonight both idols would be played no questions asked. But now I am EXTREMELY worried. I have some decisions to make too. Vote Frank or vote Lex if it comes to that and what not.

I gotta play the devils advocate here. You say you hope it's Frank but you worry about whether you'd vote him or Lex. Do you have anycontrol over the direction Sean & Vee's votes go? Why do you think it was you that they singled out last night for the other Tamanaco's to turn on?

Frank -___-. He has this "brilliant idea" that has me giving up the immunity necklace and Mama Kim giving up Cacique, to show Sean he has lots of power in a merge situation. Then Sean will magically flip to us. Do I really want to risk my neck doing this?

Anyways, I doubt I have any control over when Sean and Vee's votes go. I just want us to flush both idols. And as far as my thing with Frank/Lex, from a personal standpoint I'd want Lex to stay. However, I'd have trouble voting off Frank because he was in my alliance Day 1. How would that make me look?

Though this crazy shit might make it look not as bad

seriously, that plan is abou as likely to work as mine that I've been contemplating would. Except mine, even if it only partially succeeds, would still increase my options.

Here is what I was thinking
1. Ensure Frank/Kim/Lex all vote the same way. Kim/Frank to vote Sean, me/Lex to vote Vee
2. Continue my conversations with Sean about proving trust to one another. Say I have to force the idols out but am interested in working with him, but as a merge is coming it's hard to prove
3. Tell him that I will vote for either Frank or Lex but not tell him which. This way he can't just go in and throw 2 votes one of their ways, guessing he'll get mine. Use the exact phrase "you can try, but if you don't get it right, Vecepia will go home because you guessed wrong because he'd guess that means we expect the idol to be played on him" maybe making him get greedy and only play one idol...on Vecepia.
4. My vote would go towards who I think is least likely to go between Frank and Lex. If I get it right, and only an idol is played on Vecepia, Sean goes home with the other idol in his pocket. If I get it wrong, I'm part of a 3 person vote, at least cementing my trustworthiness to Sean/Vee. If Sean plays it cautious and uses both idols, at least I've proven my trustworthiness to him. No matter what, I can still claim to the TAco alliance I was trying to do something crazy

Anyways, would open up my game a bit.

Welp I made a choice. I revealed Frank's plan to Lex, with his word that he wouldn't discuss any of it with anyone else on the tribe.

FRANK IS MOTHER FUCKING INSANE OH MY FUCKING GOD

Tell me more!

New plan is to give up Cacique to Sean, if Vee goes home, Sean keeps both idols, if Lex goes home, Frank gets both idols. Frank says he would still vote off Vee, but pfft.

Anyways, counter effort going on to get Sean on my and Lex's side.

So looks like a me.lex.sean.vee vote together is coming together. Who saw this coming? :O

Judging by your prevote, I assume you are all voting for Frank? Fill me in on how all this happened!

Frank is an Over the Top control freak who is trying to come up with too many crazy ideas. Not to mention a lot of conflicting deals. I'm 60% certain that he was with the Final 5, but not 100%. And there's nothing I can do to make myself less wary. Sean at least makes sense in a lot of ways. This will either be the move that makes my game, or it will end it very soon. This will be the most important vote of the season, and I promise you, that is not an exaggeration.

to be quite honest, this is going to be a VERY fun night.

I am so nervous right now you have no idea. And I am immune!

this vote. It needs to be over with. Fuck. This shit is fucking cray cray

so glad he is gone. My God what an asshole
