Top 12 BABY!! Made it to merge.. can finally let a big sigh out. I am happy to be here and am loving all the game talk happening so far. It is tough to navigate through this.
I am going to go through and give my thoughts on everyone on merge, where I stand with them and where I think they are in game.
Michael: Michael was my person when I started this game. He is easy to talk to, his laugh is contagious, I think he is nice to look at and I like working with him. He got himself in a really bad spot. Him and Robbie have previous beef that is still lingering. He didn't talk to Molly or Chris for a few days. Its cray cray. I am not sure how long he is going to be able to stay in the game. I know he is trying to protect Trey. I heard that Trey was going to work with them to get out Molly and Chris. Michael is tight with Kaitlyn. He is threatened by Willow because he doesn't know where she stands and she bonded with Kaitlyn. He is tight with Kyle. I believe Michael trusts me and thinks I am with him. I will be with him for the first few votes. I am in no way going to keep Michael in the game to the point that it hurts my game. We had a plan to get an army so we can be final 3, but that is so far away from what is happening in this merge. I dont think people would work with Michael, Kyle and myself because they would think we would go to the final three together. I wonder if I will be comfortable enough to like propose something completely new to Michael and I wonder if people would let him get far in this game. Seems unlikely.
Willow: WHAT THE HECK WILLOW! If you are reading this, or if you are a Willow fan; she gone and messed up. She has been super sketch not letting anyone know what she was actually going to do if the last tribe she was on before merge went to tribal. She told Angelica it was between Michael, Molly and Chris and that Trey was going to work with them to split the votes on Molly and Chris. She told Olivia it was between Trey & Michael and she would have voted Michael. She told me it was between Trey & Michael and she thinks Trey would have gone home. Olivia, Angelica & I compared notes and were like what the heck is she doing. I kind of want to bring it up with her. Because what is best for my game is to have the Dyllans think they are going to the end together. I think going far with Dyllans is what me, Angelica and Olivia want to do. Michael would like to vote for Willow this round. I don't think that will actually happen. Willow might be saved, but it will have to be a you got got type of deal to get some truth out of her.
Kyle: By far in one of the best spots in this game. He has allies coming from all over and no one wants to target him. He has the Aparri bond and the Dyllans. He is super likable and very non threatening. He tries to eliminate potential threats wherever he can. I don't think he told Michael about the Dyllan's, but I have no idea. I hope he didn't and then I seem shady to Michael. He is a bit of a wildcard only because he like listens a lot and takes the information. He says he wants to secure himself more to me than Michael because of his sinking ship status and because people are looking at Michael and Kyle as the duo. Angelica, Olivia and I want to have a final 4 with Kyle so that he knows we really want that. We really do want that. I have the best chance of winning that f4 challenge and would be able to pick who fights for fire. Kyle will be one of them.
Angelica: Damn she is my girl! I love playing this game with her. We will get on call and just run though all possible outcomes to getting to the end together and it is so refreshing. I have not been in a game where it is not already lined up for me to get to the end so it is fun coming up with ways to get there. By no way we are on the bottom, but we have to play this right to get to the end. We have a lot of groups together, but it is hard to know who is going to be the tightest group. Everyone is kinda scared in this game to really go deep in strategy talk, but that is not the case for Angelica and I. I feel good about her and every time we talk it is so fricken fun. I want to be sitting in the end with her.
Olivia: I wish she will give me a little bit more. I want to go to the end with her and Angelica, I think she knows that and I THINK she wants that too. She doesn't really express it. I need a bit more reassurance. I think we can go undetected if Olivia still plays Koror strong. It can go undetected. People think she was one of the ones leading that tribe and I believe it too. She was also in this Willow lie circle and thinks it would be best to confront Willow about it.
Kaitlyn: she has stepped up since Aparri days. I think she has more confidence and was able to get over the Logan scare. I still don't want to go to the end with her, but potentially will be voting with her in the first few rounds of Merge. Everyone thinks she bonded with Willow and that she is still tight with Michael.
Chris & Molly: Sorry they both are like the same in this game so they are both getting one post. Both of them pulled the whole 'I am open to other options' thing. I know they know they are in a bad spot and honestly I want them to stay in that bad spot. If they are in the first 3 boots, we just need 1 more to have a solid majority. That one more has to be Trey, Kaitlyn or Michael if the Dyllans are going to make it to the end. These two are not in my plans.
Robbie: I need Robbie to think it is Orange tribe to the end. We have a 5 with him, Genki, Olivia, Angelica and myself. The best part about this is that we need to survive 3 votes then a 5 is a majority. If Kyle and Willow are also in the game at that time, Angelica, Olivia and I have 2 final 5's sitting there. That is ideal. We can then pick off everyone to get to final 3. Sounds easy, ehh. Robbie is super charming and is a social beast. I think he doesn't have the most options in merge which is good for me because he can be with me.
Genki: Genki has started to open up a bit more about the game. Our conversations have been trying to untangle what was going to happen on that other tribe. He brought up this morning how Michael & Kaitlyn and Molly & Chris are both in similar situations and it would be in their best interest to work together. I like that he is thinking this. I also planed a seed that I think they are protecting Trey because he was playing both sides. this is good that he is thinking about this because it means he is not thinking about getting to the end with those people. We need to start an Orange tribe group so that we can have Genki and Robbie feeling comfortable with their path in this game. I think think Maybe Olivia should have a f3 with Robbie, Genki and herself. MAYBE we get a f4 going with Genki, Robbie, Olivia and Angelica. I am totally comfortable with that.
Trey: I ALWAYS FORGET TREY!! Okay so he is an interesting piece to this puzzle because Micael is actively trying to protect him. Trey was playing both sides before merge and knows if it gets out that he was planning on doing it that it will put him in a bad spot in this game. Michael wanted to tell him that Willow was the one to leak it and that she told Angelica. I told Michael it might not be best because if it gets back to Angelica, she won't be happy about it. I don't want Trey in this game very long. He is not in my plans.
