So after Gervase I was completely ready to ride the rest of this game out with the people that I like and care about which is Spencer, JFP and Caleb. They’re the three guys that I have the best relationship with and I think I’d do well working with them. Spencer and me were allegedly pissed off that Dana won immunity because he wanted to take her out so after that happened he just suggested Kat or Sydney to me and I was fine with it. I’m completely for taking out the rest of the Coast and going mountain strong. When I talked strategy a bit with JFP he was the same with wanting Sakai and Ki to stick together and pick off the remaining Ozatos. So I’m sitting there, nodding my head and getting wet because this plan sounds perfect to me and then I stumble upon some crucial details that end up changing my entire perspective.
So last night, Caleb came to me and said that Ki was targeting us again. They’re dead set, apparently, on splitting the votes on Caleb and Eliza and trying to get us out by using the Ozato girls. I guess thank God for my social game and my ~fluidity in alliances~ that I guess I got my name off of a parchment this round. Hopefully being the good graces of Spencer and JFP is coming in handy. The thing is, I’m still blown the fuck away that Spencer is still after Caleb because I thought we were all in this together. I chose not to believe this , again, but Sydney’s and Kat’s stories are just so thorough and seem so believable that it’s hard to not. Especially because Kat confided in me last round about Spencer and Dana and plotting and I called out Spencer who ended up back peddling and then you had Dana who IM’d me after and basically confirmed it all. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me and that is NOT happening. Ozaot doesn’t have to help us, but they are which is why I’m believing them. I chose to throw Kat under the bus to Spencer last round and she’s STILL trying to work with Sakai again and save us. I’m sorry, but I’ve made up my mind and I’m siding with Ozato and voting for a Ki. Even if Ki is telling the truth they will run the game and they honestly need to get knocked down a peg or two.
The plan is for Ozato + Ki to split the votes on Caleb and Eliza and then Caleb will play his idol and Eliza will go. Sydney and Kat told me, Eliza and Caleb they plan on lying to them and telling them that but they’re going to vote with us to take out JFP and the vote should read 5 – 3 – 2. Apart really wants to vote Spencer because if that asshole is seriously playing Caleb and I again then I want him gone, BUT JFP is more of a threat, competition wise, and keeping Spencer around is a big target considering the Ozato girls loathe him. I think, and if this works out, after this Ki blindside he’ll be pretty shook without any place to go.
So there you have it, that’s all that’s happening and what’s going down. I’m just going to nod my head and go with these girls because it seems like a confusing, huge plan to tell us just to take us out. And even if Ki is telling the truth and they weren’t playing us, I’m still salty over Spencer lying to me about the whole Dana issue. #byeboy I love JFP more than anything, but this move tonight is going to set the mood for the rest of the merge.

Spencer
No one ever seems to be on nowadays
Legit tried to ask him if Ozato has talked to him at all about the vote and he avoided it and won't answer. I tried to give you a SECOND chance to be honest with me Spencer and this isn't helping. u_u
So annoyed we voted the wrong person and Marisa managed to play her idol correctly and Caleb was the one who fell for our team. I'm going to miss him so much and the thought of him not being here anymore is just actually really chilling. He was such a huge entity in this game that it blows my mind completely that he's gone. Spencer is a complete traitor and I do hate him- a lot.
He went around saying they were splitting the votes on me and Kat just to scare us, but it didn't work because he sucks so bad. I know I should stop talking to him and actively get him out, but that's stupid and I need to leave my options open and he IS an option. There's zero doubt that he's my side's biggest target and they want him out and he's gotta know I'm the only one on this side that's willing to go to bat for him. I'm just going to be a fake fuck to Spencer and hopefully he'll keep my name off of a parchment this vote. Him and I actually made a deal that we would keep each other safe and help each other get to Final 6. There's no reason for him to lie to me because he knows I "like him a lot and want to work with him" and that "Eliza, Kat and Syd want him out" so why wouldn't he convince his allies to vote two others besides me? I'll keep my side of the deal and not vote for him if it benefits me, but if there's ANY WAY I can take a shot at him this round and get him the fuck out of here you best bet I'll be powering up my laser beam. I would loooove to send Spencer home subsequently after Caleb and just really make a big statement. Marisa and James are the biggest goats in this game and there's no way they'll win over a jury. Dana and Spencer are the two people I need out from this game and it's got to happen. If I don't win immunity, I'm just going to lay it on NICE AND THICK to Spencer because he still thinks I want to go to the end with him.
Spencer's already done me wrong, I have ZERO issues with bold-face lying to him and blindsiding the fuck out of him. I think he's a really cool person outside of the game, but he really is slimey, slithery sssssnake. The most annoying part of it it all is he was actually offended that people put him down as that.
SPENCER WHEN YOU END UP READING THIS JUST REALIZE YOU ARE A SNAKE. I guess if you end up winning this game then it worked out, but if not congrats on your all star spot and snatching that villain title.
Alright, after I got that bitch session out about Spencer I can go ahead I guess and highlight the positives? I know I've had my regards about Kat, but that's when I put Spencer on a pedestal and I became so anti-Kat and coast. After she came to the rescue not once, but twice I knew she was the right person to side with. I really just ~connected with her post-Spencer betrayal and she really was trying to help us, genuinely. I guess she'd be the hero to Spencer's villain persona from my game perspective. I mean, everyone's the star of their own story, right?
I really got close with her and Caleb thought the world of her so we kinda were coming together as a trio, final three type deal before Caleb ultimately was idol'd out. I've always known or had a hunch about how close Eliza and Sydney were so that basically leaves Kat and myself to work it out. I plan on staying true, because I really don't have anyone I actually like or care about left. Kat has some strategic chops and she's fun to talk game with, I think this'll work out.
She was having the same thoughts Spencer and I were about saving each other, but it was her and Dana. I feel like those two are greedy and would let James and Marisa fall for them if it meant they got to be protected.
I'm going all in for this round, it's super important. After this it'd final 6 baby!
Forever unable to win an endurance -.- what a waste. I see Marisa being anon for ages so looks like that cunt is about to beat me. SIGH. I guess I'd rather immunity on their side if it wasn't around my neck anyways.
Sorry I haven't written in this at all just nothing to write when you know you're essentially fucked.
I have a glimmer of hope because Dana is contemplating on making a move. Spencer told me they're splitting the votes on Kat and I and voting me out on the revote. 🙄 Kat and I are trying to get Dana to vote with us and do a 3-2-1 vote, but I don't have my heart set on it. I'm not giving up, but I'm done running into a brick wall. If this plan works then I'll have hopes that people want to play this game and not just let Ki get to Final 3.
Maybe Dana will wanna make a move and try something out. Don't count me out just yet. Just because the real Julia is out tonight doesn't mean I am! ;)
Kat made magic happen last round with me right behind her and we got Dana to flip and vote out Marisa. I was basically talking to Spencer ALL day and acting distraught and sad about going home and all he would tell me is to vote Kat and sorry I'z gotta go~ like a supreme douchelord BUT I looked over it. I was being positive about Dana flipping and when I finally got a chance to speak with her she shut me down immediately. I kept trying and giving out points, but she told me Kat tugged at her heart string and realized she should take out Marisa while she has the chance.
It was a glimmer of hope and Dana sided with us. Turns out she didn't even have to because Ki didn't even trust her and lied to her and everyone else about the split vote. Kat whipped out an idol and Marisa ends up going 3 - 0. I was so happy that Marisa left because I extended an olive branch to the goats like her and James so we could help each other out and they both lied straight to my face like assholes. I hope she regrets not wanting to work with me now because now her ass is at the jury and Ki has fallen apart. <3
Kat pulls out a clutch victory and thus ends Dana's streak at immunity. I wanted to win it so badly just so I could have some options, but I don't even think I need it. Spencer is DRAGGING Dana all over the board and explaining how she's going to win this game if she makes it to the end (WHICH I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS ALL GAME) and then Dana is fighting back with them and I guess their love is finally over. <3 Spencer campaigned to me all night and explained every reason under the sun why I'm the swing vote and how me voting out Dana over him will be the best move I could make. It'll solidify me in Final 3 because Kat and Spencer WILL go after each other next round and if it's endurance I won't have to go half a day.
If I cut Spencer this round I will emotionally be okay because I will have stopped the beast from winning this game and be okay with whoever is last to win. Do I wanna play like a boy scout troop or do I wanna play like an actual player?
I promise Dana the world to keep me and everything and I would feel so shitty about going and not even a round later voting her out. On the other hand, strategically it's a better move because she's the best at competitions and if she does win the FIC at F4 my head will be on the line because she won't want to vote Kat and she'll wanna use James as a goat I bet.
I guess it all comes down who I think I can beat. I know I want to go to the end with Kat, but will she even forgive me if I go behind her and eliminate Dana? I told Spencer I would go along with and vote out Dana with him, but I don't want anyone to know. Not James, I don't plan on telling Kat and certainly we can't tell Dana. I honestly just said it to end his pitch because no amount of campaigning is going to change my mind on what I'm going to do. I have a decision to face and I need to know if I'm siding with the angel or the devil.
I think I know what needs to be done and what I need to do to ensure myself in the Final 3 spot. I'd be lying if I said after Dana lost immunity that I didn't entertain the thought of taking her out when I had the chance, but I wasn't going to campaign and do anything. The minute Spencer just went crazy and openly campaigned for her demise it showed me another path to take that has a happier ending for myself.
I think if I got to Final 4 with Dana, Kat and James I would be a contender to go home because of least amount of options AND Dana and Kat wouldn't turn on each other, ever. I'm still convinced that they've been playing double agent this whole game and helping each other with aligning with opposite alliances. If I go to Final 4 with James, Spencer and Kat then I have a total shot at making it to the end because Kat and Spencer detest each other so much. No matter who wins immunity in that scenario I think I'm solid for finals.
The tricky thing is I feel like I can only present my story at FTC with Spencer gone. You all know how eager I've been with wanting to take him out the minute he turned on Caleb and I and am I really going to take this opportunity and let it go? I may not get another chance if he miraculously wins immunity next round and he'll be there, slaughtering us all with the jury votes stacked on him.
This is a very big deal and I'm trying to assess all the options. I think Dana is the lock to win this game over all of us and I DO have the chance to take her out. I'm also taking out the BIGGEST competition threat and it would really even up the FIC. I'm just stressed because she saved me last round and now I'm battling with this moral dilemma on whether or not to bite the hand that fed me. I did promise Dana everything to keep me in the game last round, despite them not splitting and Kat idol'ing out Marisa, I still feel a sense of loyalty because she did that unbeknownst to her.
I know what I should do and I know what I want to. Gonna give myself a few more to think about before I cast my vote.
