Ugh I can't be here for the challenge. Saturday night people? That's really what we voted on?

We need to get the ORG world more laid. Facts by Todd.

So suddenly Hatch and I are best friends. We find out we live about 5 minutes from each other in Chicago. I gotta see if he's hot. I'll give some votes up for a little piece of ass. What?? Don't judge. Shawna loves this. Anyway. Hatch says he has some juicy tidbits about Leann. I inquire. Basically he tells me that there was a Lugata Final 5 and I was the odd man out. SHOCKER. He says in her puzzle screen shot it shows the sub-alliance blast chat and that it is the 5. Pretty good observing on his part. Unfortunately, this isn't new news and I am not blown away about it. I am also always weary of "sudden friendships" this late into the game. Hatch has apparently chewed everyone's ear off and not said one word to me a la Dave. I have never seen him online, and had pretty much written me off, but now he sniffs out a power shift so we're BFF's.

I don't think so.

I am going to play this out really loose and fast now. This is why I set up the hated thing early on. I can keep this character up and get to the FTC and say "look I was Todd the whole time". Man I want to be in the finals so bad to throw this all in faces. I give amazing FTC by the way. I am in another game right now where I tried playing a completely UTR-Goat style character to see if I could do it, and I got to the F3 and everyone had written me off but I am giving great FTC and I feel like if I even get like 1-2 votes then I have succeeded. Here, I want to win.

Jamie has proposed an alliance of:



He's kind of calling it Team Underdog. Now don't get me wrong Jamie is my girl and I love him, but Underdog does not accurately depict his status in this game. This is pretty much him setting himself up for an easy path. My big concern here is the Dreamz-Kelly-Hatch-Ciera dynamic could easily pick the two of us off at F6, so I am going to have to change this dynamic up pretty quickly and get rid of one of these people - like we just did with Greg. Things like that instantly change up the dynamic. I also have been smoothing things out with Leann and pretty much told her that they brought it on themselves by ranking me last and then not telling me they were throwing the challenge. She actually agreed with me and told me that she appreciated the honesty and understood. She could be being diplomatic, which is smart, but it's in BOTH our interests to continue to work together. I will need her to break up this Underdog clan at some point.

I am almost certain this live challenge is a merge and then immediate individual challenge. So because I am obviously not going to win it because I won't be here, I think I just need to assess my situation.

There's obviously the Lugata Alliance:
and maybe
I think both of them would be inclined to "come back" to Jamie and I to preserve Lugata from being picked off, so I can appeal to them to not vote me.

Then there's

I honestly don't think this group is savvy enough to move against Jamie and I just yet. I think I have built up some equity with all of them based on this Greg vote. But other than Dreamz I am not really sold on this group at all.

Then there's

I have no idea about these 3. Chet is probably still a Bitter Betty about the PG blindside. Laura and I started to get a little something going while she was in the brig, she wanted to work together if she ended up with us. Cody I have not spoken to once. Maybe I'll reach out to him. I'll flirt and see where it goes.

This is the crucial part of the game, where we see where the balance of power goes. I honestly don't plan on being in anyone's equation very long. I am not going to ping pong, but I am going to keep a strategic eye on people. You aren't ping ponging if you are technically in every alliance right?

Oh man I am shit hammered.

You're welcome,

Oh Kelly...

Placeholder for tomorrow's journal:

• This wild vote. Richard vs Ciera vs Laura - jesus christ.
• Jamie's continued descent into madness and my thoughts.
• I finally talk to Cody.
• Cunty Kelly
• And my thoughts on everyone left.

All to come on Todd's Time.

Todd @ 2/2/2014 4:02

All to come on Todd's Time.

Rude!

Why is that rude??

For Shawna:

Those are fake. It has a transparent picture of a camera on it.

Todd @ 2/2/2014 4:06

Why is that rude??

Just cause I was impatient. :P

Boobear @ 2/2/2014 11:31

Those are fake. It has a transparent picture of a camera on it.

Oh.

Boo:

Lezz be honest - you didn't want to get with a girl anyways.

The man has a point..

OK so last night/morning I cockteased a journal today, so far be it for me to back out now.

First topic...THIS STUPID VOTE

As soon as I log on last night I am blasted by the following people:


Why are you all fucking up this late? I mean as soon as I logged on - BLASTED (by vodka, and then AIM Chats). They all wanted to point out to me that Kelly cut me down and Dreamz cut Jamie so all bets were off with this new F6.

Fucking shocker. EYEROLL.

So Jamie tells me that the vote is now for shady Richard, which I am fine with. He tells me though that the 6 think its Cody. Meanwhile on the other part of town the vote is apparently Laura.

Laura?

Why on Earth would anyone believe that Laura was a target. You know Laura, who has done... and when she won... and how she has talked to... Yeah let's get that super threat Laura out of here. I mean c'mon guys. The target is either Ciera - who everyone hates, Rich - who might have an idol, and Me - who everyone hates/loves and thinks is Jamie's F2 - which is true. Those are real targets in a real game of strategy. If it really is Laura - those 5 deserve to just be peacefully picked off one at a time and head to ORG Retirement Village.

So then about 3AM Jamie runs to me and says the vote has changed to Ciera because Rich might play his idol. Jesus. GOOD. And then Laura goes out? HAHAHAHAHAHA. Nah, that's not good. Because it will be me most likely. If they can't kill Jamie they'll go for me. But I almost don't care. Rich is so shady and condescending I really want him out. And I'm a little tired of being told who to vote for. It's time Todd put on some big boy pants and threw his dick around a bit. I am not a pawn in this game. I am going to store two parchments in here because I have to leave soon and then I can access them mobile like.

But man Jamie needs to take a Xanax. That kid gets riled in a heartbeat. He changes his mind and runs around like a fucking tornado stirring things up and then tells me to keep everything quiet and not talk to this person. I do improv for a living, I am pretty sure I can handle some conversations. Besides I am known for being confrontational, so I have to keep that up or it looks weird. Dear sweet Jamie. I can't wait to see how hot he is in real life. He has agreed to show me. He's a runner and said he's cute - I believe this 100%. You guys we're falling in love. ;)

Speaking of hot, John Cody talked to me last night. I think he's hedging his bets, since he and Chet are supposedly now with old Lugata (Dave, Leann, Jamie and I). Not sure when that happened, but why the fuck not. It was a pleasant enough conversation. Surprise surprise it's another gay dude. Perfect. It was late so we didn't have much chat, but we promised to reconnect today. He is apparently a big fan of my character this season. Funny since I went right after him in the chopping. Oh well, I guess I am having an impression on folks.

Also Kelly is a cunt. I fucking save her and vote out Greg and she gets the nerve up to go after me in the chopping. Dumb fucking move. Doesn't she know Todd is a drunk idiot that doesn't care about consequences? I know she is a non factor but now I have to get rid of her. It's a pride thing you guys.

OK, this is long and I am sobering up with some cranberry juice. And vodka.

Here is my Merge Assessment:

- Playing a serious UTR game. I think the PG vote neutered him and now he is just lurking in the shadow like that creepy gay guy who sits at the end of the bar and cruises. Shudders. I am not sure he is really aligned with anyone seriously. I apologized for the PG vote and explained and he thanked me for it. We'll see. Staus: Keep an eye on him and make him feel included with me.

- Wow is this girl paranoid. Either that or she is playing an Andy Kauffman-esque brilliant character like I am. If she is, then major kudos. But she is alienating everyone and is not long for this world, though she'd be great to take to the finals. Staus: Keep making her think we are the two outcasts in the game.

- Who? Staus: Seriously, who is this guy?

- I feel like Dreamz is starting to slip off my favorite radar. He's been really quiet, and even today when he talked to me it was really brief and not typical. I have a feeling he is plotting. Staus: Keep making him feel like he is my core alliance.

- More paranoid then Ciera, who he gives shit for it. This guy is playing hard to win and I really admire him. Gamewise I am still really skeptical, on a personal front I super love this guy. If I lived in San Diego we already would be dating. He is pretty great. Staus: He is my Final 2 until something majorly happens to change that.

- I have no opinion only that he was a non-factor until last night. Staus: See where it goes I guess, but an easy vote.

- #cunt.

- Are we sure this isn't just Dave in a wig? Status: I mean we should investigate this, it could be jakbott.

- She seems to be back on the Todd Train, but I really can't be sure because I am sure she is really still skeeved by the Greg vote and I wouldn't blame her. The key here is convincing her that I am her only option and that she and her friends caused me to the vote that way and that Jamie is the real enemy. :) Status: So far so good. Keep the plan going.

- Talk about shady acres. This guy is pretty great. I mean it's too late for us now. Had we been on the same tribe originally I can see us working together big time. He keeps telling me he hates Ciera but is forced to work with her, but then runs around showing everyone everyone's conversations, and showing clearly Photoshopped screens. Status: Gotta get rid of him immediately.

And then there's


Oooo gurl I am sick of writing. Ending this.

YOU ARE WELCOME.

Keeping these here:

OMFG

They flipped it on me? Kudos.

I told you, Rich is great. He sniffed it out and couldn't get Jamie so he went for me. That fake ass Photoshopped idol thing was so obvious and he knew I knew. I called him on it tonight. Man. The weather here in Chicago has sucked, nothing is working, my wifi was out, I couldn't get on with my phone because the signal was all sucky today. Just a goddamned nightmare. I had no idea what the hell was going on.

The webs comes back on late, I rush and get my vote in and get bombarded with chaos.

"It's Ciera as the vote"

"They are all voting you now"

"Rich is using his idol against you"

"Dreamz, Kelly and Chet turned against you"

So I was pretty sure I was out. Then the votes were revealed. And this is how it went down:

=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
=

So this was really telling. I guess Chet, Kelly, Dreamz and Cody all told Team Dumbfucks (Rich/Ciera) that they were voting me. None of them actually did. Dreamz voting Laura should be voted "Biggest Pussy Move". I am not going to vote against Todd or Ciera but I'll make a move that will cause a tie and nobody will be mad at me. Tough luck buddy, you're done with me.

This vote also made me feel bad for ragging on Chet. He redeemed himself here and I like that. Even Dave kept me. Dave. Damn it.

This also made Cody and Kelly rise up in my books...probably the 3/4 spot now. Then there's Leann, solid people.

The key is going to be to make the smaller groups feel special this next week. The Non-Lugatas need a sacrifice (please God Dave) or the Outsiders need to pick who is going next. I honestly don't think sending Rich out next is our best move. His strongest move thus far was finding an idol from swapping tribes and making a not convincing Photoshop image. I think I can get him to do what I want for one round and we might want to explore that.

Gotta say this is an interesting group left. Going to have to do a Win Analysis in ole Week 8. But for now Daddy has to go drink out of his pillow. My pillow is a bottle of Bacardi Rum. Because fuck you Dreamz, Rich, Ciera and Laura.



You're welcome
