Stranded in Venezuela

Wowee. What's the fall out from such an explosive tribal council?

Where do you go from here? How have your plans changed?

Now that one idol has been played, are you scared of potentially more idols being played?

The fallout has somehow landed on me. It's reasonable enough, I fought the Sean blindside plan. Still it's exceedingly worrying.

The plan has changed immensely, and for the better. Lindsey, Sarah and Gina are singling themselves out as power players and we're going to get rid of them with any luck. I'm really in the hot-seat right now. I'm really hoping that they're seen as a bigger threat than I am. Or at the very least less trustworthy.

At this point, I'm tight with Gabe. And from what he's told me, quite convincingly, he's tight with me as well. To F2.

Sean's given me his word that he'd take Me/Gabe to F3 but I don't trust it. But it's good to have regardless cause I can use it.

Gabe has ties with Linda/Lex and I'm hoping that he's their "least offensive" potential ally and so Gabe sides with me/Sean/Vee, and we have 6 to get rid of Sarah or Lindsey.

I believe that sarah wasn't joking about that idol. I think she has it and i'm willing to play assuming she has. Although there's equal chance that Lindsey has it so we need to tread carefully. It might be an idea to target Kimp, and get that out of the way, and then 3-3-3 split vote for the idols.

Right now I'm just trying to stay afloat. I'm scared out of my mind for this coming TC but... I've just gotta play my best.

At least you're buoyant!

THIS WAS AN ENTIRE PM FROM HER?!?!?! Seriously what the fuck.

Alright... I think this new alliance of 6 is going to work. Linda/Lex seem open to it and Sean/Vee have no reason to lie to me at this stage.

Now it's just a matter of Sarah or Lindsey. I personally want Lindsey.

Gina seems to be genuinely trying to rebuild a relationship with me. It might be just to get me on board but I'm wary. I think I could still potentially use Gina later down the line once Sarah/Lindsey are no longer around to tempt her. Still, at this point I'm willing to cut that tie.

Right now, the only people I have no ties to are Sarah and Kimp. Lindsey and I have what I think is a "I know you're working against me but let's pretend to be friends still" thing. Making sure we're both not wary. Gina seems genuinely wanting to work with me still.

I'm definitely glad that I outed the Sean plan. And he ended up playing his idol anyway which was a bonus. so right now, apart from potentially being targeted according to Gabe, everything's coming up Patty.

Sorry, just before I get to questions. I actually lolled at this one.

kk, so what I am most curious is how you can complain about this;

When in what was - from a host point of view a fucking ridiculously hot Tribal Council - your general contribution was along these lines;

Patricia wrote:I'm staying out of shit because it doesn't concern me. It's clear that a bunch of people made plans/counterplans without each other, and it's clear that they need to sort their shit. Why get involved?

When obviously you are both emotionally invested here, and strategically despite your public claims. You are perfectly happy to flip out here in private, like so;

Patricia wrote: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.

But in public despite 3/4s of the cast losing their shit, your contribution is icon_tumbleweeds political niceties at best. I wonder if here in private you'd give a more honest and open answer to Jeff's Q from last night;

Jeff Probst wrote:So here's what I've noticed... we have several infact a majority of people calling eachother out on who said what. Then we have several people who have not said shit tonight: Gina, Lex, Patty, I'm looking at you. Is that because you haven't lied, you don't like conflict, or you're hoping that it isn't you who will be called out next?

Are you just trying to stay off the radar? Even now with the "fallout landing on you". Or is it just your style to be more reserved. Do you think if you got to the end here people would reward a quiet gamebot over anyone more passionate about being here who fought to stay with their heart on their sleeve?

If it comes down to it, and it was you in the shoes of Clarence or Kim P last night, are you just going to go through the motions or are you willing to fight for your right to stick around for one more round?



I imagine there is some element of truth to your "why get involved" - I suppose I'm asking why wouldn't you?

I think the disconnect here, is that this is the first time i've been quiet at something really. I'm active in PMs, I've been active in previous TC's. I'm talkative in challenges although I also try not to be distracting or annoying.

I think it's healthy to use my confessional to vent and lash out. It's smarter to do it here than to someone's face. Besides, except for the question about Sarah, I answered those questions truthfully. I had no place in that argument, and I really just needed to sit back and figure out who betrayed me.

I answered Jeff's question there but I'll go into more detail. I didn't lie to anyone that mattered. I never intended to tell the truth to Clarence/Kimp/Sarah because they were all potential targets. To every single other person, I told the truth barring the fact that I ratted out the Sean-Ouster plan to Sean which tbh would've been stupid to bring up at all.

I'm definitely trying to stay off the radar as of last nights vote. For the last TC as you saw I was more than willing to make a ballsy move to ensure Sean stayed and Clarence went. Telling Sean about the plan was a huge risk since he could've outed me and gotten me gone. But I chose right and Clarence ended up home and now I'm in with the new alliance.

I don't think they'd reward a quiet gamebot, but I genuinely don't think I am and if you read my PMs you'd see i've built several personal connections with these people.

If it came down to it and I was in Clarence/Kimp's shoes, I would've fought like hell. But I'm not stupid enough to get into their position.
