Stranded in Venezuela

Wow, what a way to start the merge, but there are a few things we'd like to know.

Kim J left with a strong majority tonight. Do you think that maybe it was a wasted opportunity to take out a bigger player?

There's been a lot of talk about idols in the recent rounds, particularly with Sean. No sign of them at tribal council though. Does it concern you that there's this talk but nothing has happened yet? What about the new idol that has been hidden?

Now that we've hit the jury, how do you plan on impressing those watching in order to convince them YOU should win Stranded in Venezuela?

I am wondering how rigid that outline form your Ep7 confessional is. Any changes needing to be made to that running order, or is it still business as usual - one down, x to go.

At this point it's one down, bring on the next. Sarah made it that much easier by voting for Sean last night and so there's not even much convincing needed. It should be another fairly easy vote and I'll be glad to get rid of her because she's truly awful to talk to.

Things will get interesting after that, because while Clarence is a snake, he's also not a threat and tbh there's people in the alliance of 8 that i'm worried will start flipping. I'm thinking, maybe after Clarence is gone though, it'll be F9 and then another shakeup. Form a new alliance of 5.

Sean, Lindsey, Gabe, Gina, Pat.

The only issue is, Gabe has said to me that he wants Gina and I to be in his F3 and he will never betray that. So I know he won't betray me until I betray him, or more accurately betray Gina. I can't get rid of Gina until all the people who I'm not working with are gone though. I need everyone here to think they have a plan going forward with me, and that's my main reason for targeting the people I am.

I've realised that I seem to have a lot of control over votes. More than I thought, and it's a little worrying because if people notice it i'm in hot water. But essentially, no decisions get made until i reply to my PMs. I've got a flood of "Who are you hearing, what are your thoughts, it's kinda between x and x what do you think?" and then I'm like, "I've heard [person i want] gone and [person i want gone] as a backup in case of immunity. And then it spreads and I get what I want. I'm not dictating to anyone I'm not being aggressive. I'm being dominant

As for the idols, something happened last round right before TC, didn't get a chance to confessional about it. Sean revealed to me, gabe and vee that the idols he had were photoshopped fakes. I'd had an inkling but of course you've got to play assuming they're real. And I still will play assuming they're real because I reckon this could be a double bluff.

As for this merge idol, I don't know. I'm going to assume someone else has it. I looked and got nothing. I hate idols I think they stagnate strategy. Because of idols i'm way less likely to consider making a big move anytime soon because it's far too easy for that news to get out and then my betrayal gets idol'd. Without an idol, as long as I get numbers i'm good.

As for the Jury, I just plan to be a visible force in everything until F3 and then explain my case. Pretty much be inoffensive and great.

Stop telling Linda that she's the follower she is It's messing up my groove.

Linda's a follower?

Tell me more about control. You say you have a lot of it, and Linda I guess hasn't. Who else here has the most and the least amount of control? You say you fear being targeted for that reason, do you have your eye on anyone else for the same reasons?

Isn't that like everyone's strategy to win? Come on Patty, you've got more than that! *pokes with stick*

Fucking Lindsey. She's trying to oust Sean and FUCK her because it's the wrong time and nobody sees it but me and I have NO fucking time to fix this.

I'll say more when I get back but fucking cunt munching motherfucker I'm annoyed. Shit's going down.

I like to think that I'm 70% genius. I told Sean that he should be worried, and just like I predicted word got out and the plan changed from Sean back to Sarah. And Kimp is the one people think let it slip. If Sean doesn't backstab me, I should be safe.

Lindsey wrote:I'm so sorry for ALL of this. I'm going to kill the fucker who tried to fuck us all over like this. It is going to be my MISSION

You three are officially the only ones I trust

Lol.

I need Lindsey out asap now. And Kimp.

To answer the questions: Mia, I can't really point to specific things i've done to make the end until i've done them, so my argument will be based on what I do between now and then.

And Linda told me that you guys asked her in confessional whether she was a follower and it made me lol because you guys are clearly trying to rig the game with leading questions.

I'm definitely playing with fire this round but it's ensured that what I want happens and that's all that matters to me.
