Side not on last round. The biggest reason I voted Vytas out is because I believe I will have his jury vote. Its going to take 5 or so to win and I think I already have a few. Plus it became really easy after he targeted me and told me I played the same game as Mookie and Brice.

So ya boy is back at it. Wheeeeelllinnnn and dealing. We are at the closing stages of the game and quite frankly, nobody has played a bettah game than me. If I get to the finals, I think I may be able to get the votes. Each person I work on, I need to get on my side. Lets just go down the line:

Monica-

We talked last night and she told me that I was the biggest goat left in the game other than her. I wanted to say why thank you I am the GOAT. I played nice and agreed I had an uphill battle to win. Then she admitted she was helping Brice the last few rounds. What were you helping him do? Listen to what I wanted more? Thanks for the insight Monica. She's so miserable haha. Anyway, seeds planted about getting Brice out have begun.

Mookie-

I opened the convo with Monica trashing me lsat night. Told him that she was just trying to help Brice the last few rounds and she thinks I was up his and Brice's ass all game. Then we started running scenarios and he said that he and Brice had played the same game its just he was more likable socially than him and he thought he would win, so his preference would be to vote him out. Music to my ears. He told me he would probably be telling Brice that I was his choice but to know that he is actually with me. I believe him. No reason to lie. He said when the time comes we should tell Brice we are voting him because it will break his heart.

I will make a deal with Brice as well. Ultimately I'm going to do whatever I can convince Monica to do if she wins. She says Brice played the best game so if thats true she should vote him out.

Order I'm voting them out:

1. Monica
2. Brice
3. Mooks

I will vote whoever out though. I don't want to do a tie breaker, and I don't want to get a vote. I'm going to get to the end. I just need to figure out how to do it. 3 C's figure out the best decision and make it. My motto when I play games is "if I have to win a challenge to win the game I didn't play good enough". So I don't think I have to win. I just want to win. She's going to be tough to beat though. She's basically a troll robot from hell.

I want to give some PW shout outs, but I don't want to do it on Rites of Passage because I don't want Brice to potentially put together the dots on who I am. He wouldn't, but its more intimate in here anyway. BRO!



For Starers I gotta go with:

Kim Powers- The great Kim P is a legend in the series and always tells me how she was so close to winning Season 1. Kim badgered me over and over again to play when I didn't really want too. I just want to thank KP for making the best move in the history of her Sausage career by getting me to play. If you want to get something done right, you need Rodney to do it for you. Those who can't do, send Rodney too.

Purple Kelly- Purple always tends to be around any time I play a game. Its funny how our paths always cross even though we have never played together. She's fantastic and I don't even have anything snarky to say about her.

I also would like to thank the Neat Lady Monica Culpepper, Shawna and Dreamz for the podcast (i assume you've been gushing about me), my main man Boo, and Caryn for the funniest comment of the season when he posted in the Cambodia thread about Tony. I still laugh thinking about it. Bob Dawg,

The biggest factor in me wanting to play the game is the community and wanting to be in on all the jokes. I am really looking forward to reading Waffle at the end of this. Anyone who said anything bad about me at the start or at any point of the game, I want to send along my condolences for your having to look yourself in the mirror and realize you were wrong. I also wanted to apologize to anyone who I have made feel inadequate. It can be a tough pill to swallow to realize you watched the best player who ever lived, but Rodney didn't ask for this talent it was just given to him. Rodney = Tom Brady 4th quarter

Lastly I want to thank Lex and Brent. Thanks for having me in your badass game. My job will be invoicing for all the lost productivity I had for these past 40ish days. I've had a lot of fun.

waiting for that f4 video confessional tho :~)

Brent is the best host

Brice Johnston
because I turned in an assignment late and I slept past my alarm and I didnt get into my capstone class which I need to graduate and my dog doesn't want to give me kisses anymore and we have a challenge tonight that I'm nervous for AND EVERYTHING IS CRUMBLING AROUND ME


Brice Update. I'd say we are on par for a Monica win lololol

Well I think I pulled a rabbit out of my hat. The two people sitting next to me should have voted me out this round and last round. I think one of the strengths of my game has been getting people to view me differently from the game I’ve actually played. Monica has no idea how much control I actually had. She thinks that I was up Mookie and Brice’s ass. Her grasp on the game is at the same level as Sherri.

My pitch to Mookie was I have a completely different story than you. If it’s Brice and Mookie sitting next to each other Brice gets all the votes from the pair because he was better socially. In order for Mookie to separate himself from Brice and prove he was actually calling the shots he needs to get rid of Brice. At least with me people will see us as playing different games. Mookie was already thinking a similar thing. I think Mooks is going to be 3rd place in this game.

As far as looking forward at jury votes I think I only have 2 for sure. Those two are Vytas and Brice. Brice has been pretty vocal about me playing the best game in the tribal council and thread and in our chats. Amber is a rational thinker and I feel like she will probably lean my way as well. I think I built a strong enough relationship with Lembo and hopefully JT’s vote comes with him. I think 5 will be enough because I assume any tie will be broken by 3rd place and Mooks will definitely award me the win.

Monica’s votes- Ami, Colton, and Sherri. Her buddy and the 2 most emotional people in the game. I think I have a shot at both of them. If I had to handicap this and they voted on best game I would give myself the slight edge. Tough to say though Vegas probably has us as even money. I will have a better performance than Monica though. Especially because I have no idea how she even answers strategic questions. She knows nothing about what happened. Im sure sitting up close in the jury will be very helpful for her. She will find out what happened in the game she potentially won.
