hi first of all VL i am sorry for throwing a challenge to vote Kevin out - I just want to say he is absolutely amazing and I enjoyed our talks so much, he just didn’t give me what I needed early enough, and while I didn’t care THAT much about protecting Trey, I do care GREATLY about protecting Molly/Chris/Robbie and we just could not have someone who was ready to flip on us, expose us, and cause problems. we have a good thing going, and I need these people to survive.
but also - i need to survive now. i am of course swapped all by my little lonesome onto this tribe. which of course, is likely a good thing?
info i was able to get from kyle before i forget - first vote was a 5-2-1 with logan and kaitlyn voting together, then suzi voting like jordan i think. suzi voted out unanimously. logan and kaitlyn in a ton of alliances, messy. kaitlyn next vote, she was targeting jordan. by methods of deduction - brady gyle sam nikki alliance. apparently pretty inactive - although sounds like the top 4 people not in danger probably weren’t, they all have experience.
i say this in my confessional - but i really think that this twist puts new players at a big disadvantage, which sucks. they already don’t get the pacing, so fucking up the pacing, making activity levels out of wack and the transition from personal to game happen so quick - it’s really changed the dynamic and flow of the game. unfortunately, imo, it really encourages strong, large majorities and safe game play. you can’t have a plan to change shit up, and have it not happen (like what happened to kevin). charity i’m not trying to talk shit, but this is just my observation.
but to the blue tribe - from initial tribe call reads, i do not get the impression that these 3 are super close. which means - make them fall in love w me so they ditch each other even though that is a terrible idea for them unless one is already in conflict. obviously - angelica and rocky are big characters, outgoing, hilarious. do i think the two mesh strategically? uh no. hoping no. willow is super sweet - but also notably absent from the gabby hearts on the swap post - ?. also - don’t think gabby was unanimous, or at least i would imagine that some people would not have wanted her gone from what i know of her. gabby is no easy early boot. so i suspect division. and will PREY ON THAT. because i would like to work w gyle, and also, destroy a majority, hello. but of course - just gonna make sure everyone loves me tomorrow, i have 4 calls to do to cover some MAJOR ground. also praying for a gyle idol potentially, just didn’t want to ask him yet. bc if purple has one - then def will be with them. i don’t peg angelica or willow for idol finders. gyle and i kind of sensing rocky may not vibe w these people to well. personally - idk if i will vibe w rocky too well, but i will put it on. also - rocky made chats w the minority immediately, while i had to make them w angelica/willow.
of course i am the most important - but also pretty happy with how my allies swapped. i tried putting in a lot of work with them so if we were separated we would reunite, and i am sure that robbie chris and molly will stick together and easily pull in niki. trey has his idol, hopefully he will survive. i genuinely feel like blue will be a mess. trey and bridget are likely devastated that they swapped together LOL.
i do feel like as long as i can establish a majority on this tribe, that i will be in a pretty ideal place come merge? also i definitely suspect a second swap, potentially at 16/14. maybe 15? idk. but i don’t think i’m stuck here until merge.
but yeah most important is that i am active as all hell tomorrow and work my social game.
