Now we're down to the final 9. You have already managed to outlast half of the season's cast!
Yay me! I never thought I would have gotten this far, seriously.
Explain the dynamics of this merge tribe. Where does everyone stand? Where do you sit in the pecking order?
Well, the "pair" dynamics that Sean mentioned during the last TC weren't apparent to me until after the fallout from the vote. I thought the NuMariche alliance of Pat/Gabe/Gina/myself were all equal in terms of just being a solid four, but it turns out that Gabe & Pat are closer than we realized. Gina and I have always been close so this doesn't bother me as much as it should. It basically means that there are four pairs - Sean/Vecepia, Linda/Lex, Gabe/Pat and Gina/Lindsey - as well as Sarah kinda floating but I think she's loyalish to me? I can't tell. Either way, after this last vote, I can no longer trust Gabe and Pat really. I'm relying on them to realize that if they go with the NuTamanaco group they're playing for fifth and giving Sean an easy win. Loyalty doesn't appeal so I'll have to appeal to common sense. Either way I'm kinda in an awful position right now.
Give me a rating of your own chances at winning this game. Also for the rest of the remaining players.
Let's do it on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being they have a win on lock and 1 being they're basically already out of here.
I'm going to do it based on two scenarios.
SCENARIO A: PAT & GABE STICK WITH NUMARICHE AND BOOT NUTAMANACO:
Vecepia - 1
Linda - 3
Lex - 5
Sean - 5
Pat - 7
Lindsey - 7
Sarah - 8
Gabe - 9
Gina - 9
SCENARIO B: PAT & GABE STICK WITH SEAN AND BOOT NUMARICHE:
Lindsey - 1
Sarah - 2
Gina - 2
Pat - 4
Gabe - 4
Vecepia - 5 (for whatever reason, no one really respects her. Barring major shake-ups she can't win a jury vote)
Linda - 7
Lex - 9
Sean - 10
