Alexis was voted out by the girls which I was bummed about. I thought there was a potential there for an ally but I guess that is no longer the case. We were greeted with a game changing twist. We'd decide how the tribes swapped with 5 people going to one tribe, and 4 people going to the other tribe. Immediately it was apparent that whoever got Left Behind would be in a poor spot in the game. Of course Butch was the first to come up with a master plan with a game changing strategy. His idea was to have me and him join Kat and Sugar on the minority tribe. Honestly I could careless about what tribe I end up on. I feel pretty good about being able to out socialize the other boys and I would hope that the other tribe would not consider goofy old me a threat. Butch must have a big old crush on me though, like he must be dreaming of me like I dream of Reynold every night. That is good for me. Even though I have expressed frustration it kind of made me realize how good of a spot I was truly in with the boys. If nothing else that gives me confidence moving forward. I never doubt that I was a baller, but I never considered myself the top baller.

I will admit I probably made a mistake. I went along with the plan right away which probably made Reynold and Gervase slightly suspicious. Frankly I would rather work with them, then Butch but Butch kind of put me in the corner with the proposal. I would honestly not mind going with Gervase and Matthew, the only issue is that out of those three I would be the biggest threat. I hate my colossal mind. I tend to over analyze things. Really I should just sit back and let it happen and adjust from there, but I will probably shoot myself in the foot before the night is over and say something that makes people question where my loyalty is. As for the girls the only one I want to really avoid is Dana. I just haven't had a good conversation with her and apparently her head was on the chopping block last round so there is the potential that she might screw the Coast over.

But I am already thinking way too much. I need to sleep. Screw my big brain. I will donate it to science when I perish.

Butch really pushed me into a corner. If we meet again there will be blood.

So I went from having Butch/Kat to Matthew/Dana.

Time to make some lemonade

I am talking in depth with Fairplay about being a high school Geometry Teacher.

So the tribes have swapped and I find myself in a six to four minority. If the other two tribes talked like our tribe did with the girls then there is a good chance that initially their plan is to stick together. While that obviously puts me in an awkward position, there are three other people that could get voted off that would not really effect me. The people that are left behind with me are Sugar, Matthew and Dana. I have no relationship with Dana, I just haven't really talked much to her. Sugar is a very social player so while I am her "Boobs Coach" and we get along well, I don't really feel like she trusts me. Matthew on the other hand is someone I trust quite a bit, but I am not sure he has the social ability to have longevity in this game. He did not seem to have an idea that he was on the outs on the original tribe, but he seems to trust me and I enjoy talking to him so if I can I would like to keep him around.

I think the hardest thing for me is to stay under the radar. I acknowledge that I am somewhat of an over the top personality and that does not bode well for a swap situation. I could be easily viewed as the biggest threat and shipped off to join Chicken the second we lose a challenge. I just have a lot of problems sitting behind and waiting for people to come to me. Why do you think I've had so many different professions. I am a doer, I am not a waiter (well I was a waitress), so even though it may not benefit my game I doubt I will not talk to people and figure out what is going on from a game aspect.

Leaving Gervase, Reynold and Butch was pretty difficult. Reynold and I had a pretty serious talk before I left. I basically confessed to him that I trusted him and Gervase more than Butch and reiterated that I was him number one. I hope he realizes that I consider him my number one, even though I am not sure if he trusts Butch or I more. Gervase was also a blind number so I am going to miss him as well. Butch I miss for a different reason. Butch is someone I trust and is someone I would have worked with, but I also feel like I could have made Butch out to be a big threat pretty easily. But that is how the game goes, there are ups and downs and you have to react to them. Inspirational words but Deb.

There are positives. I am definitely going to play it up that I think I was next up on the chopping block because of the fact that I missed the first challenge. They may believe it simply because of the gender ratio. Obviously I am not going to make a huge deal out of it but you would be surprised how much subtle repetition plays into a persons mindset. If I continue to say it their first instinct might be well lets not vote Debbie, she was on the outs of her old tribe. I will slowly like a larvae ingrain in their brain that I am not a threat. That will be their first thought when they think of me.

As for the Shogun as much as I would love to get someone on our side, I am sure as hell not going to bring that topic up. As nice as it would be to get the numbers on the other side, I doubt that anyone from the mountain would go for it and it would just put an unnecessary bulls eyes on my back. I also still don't have enough points to buy anything of use (such as a mutiny).

Finally the challenge seems like it will be absolutely chaotic. I hope that I can useful to my tribe and hopefully pull out a win to give me more time to get to know my new tribe mates as well as get some more bounty points.

I will discuss more about the individuals on my tribe tomorrow.

If the activity of nuSakai was any indication tonight. We are going to be losing a lot of challenges.

So honestly the people from the mountain are not that exciting. I got to know them and impressed them with my charm and charisma. However unfortunately they did not start really talking any strategy to me. I know I said I would play it passive and not try to become that threat but it is hard. I hate not really having control of a game even though not being in control is probably the most beneficial.

So the challenge was a musical puzzle. Sugar took control of the challenge and decided that we should work together from the start and go through the song. Unfortunately having 7 people doing the exact same task does not really work for a speed challenge. As a business manager I would not tell my employees to work on the same project from start to finish at the same time, I would break it up to increase productivity and get that project done as quick as possible.

I kind of pulled a classic Debbie and went rouge on the challenge. As six people worked slowly from the start I started at the rear of the song and worked my way back. I got about six or seven letters in the time that the other group got thirteen letters done so needless to say that I was a pretty efficient member of the tribe. Unfortunately however we were about fifteen minutes longer than the other tribe so maybe our strategy wasn't the most efficient. Go figure.

So now I have to go to tribal council with a bunch of strangers and it is frustrating. Dana seems like the easiest option because she is the only person who satisfies both categories for elimination. She first of all is from the coast which is down seven to four in the numbers, but also she did not show up for the challenge. I understand it is a little awkward trying to work with Sugar while also actively supporting her ex-tribesmates downfall but I have got to survive.

Here are a few frustrations that I ran into talking to these numbskulls on my new tribe. Matty is pretty much a lone wolf. He had limited communication with his tribe. I would love to work with Matty but one person is not going to change much in my game so I am not going to pursue it that much. Sugar is just so hard to trust. Because she disappears for 30 minutes and then gives me very loose answer on what is going on.

I do not have any allies on this tribe besides Sash and I am trying to change that. I proposed to Julia and Caleb that we become a foursome. Julia expressed that she liked Sash so maybe this was too aggressive but it is definitely a step in the right direction. Caleb despite his model like body and sculpted abs is really wishy washy. I told him that I heard Dana from Julia, which I can't imagine he didn't know, and he acted all confused like why Dana. Well she hasn't really been on the last two days for starters. Regardless this seems like the best bet for the longevity in my game.

A final note my matchmaking has worked. Jefra gave Caleb the necklace. That is so cute. Yet another job that I totally kick ass at.

I am losing my shit.

Spencer needed me as a High School Geometry Teacher:

Spencer Duhm
yeahh
i mean there's only a 2/38 chance was it
that she got an idol

Debbie Wanner
36 but yes

Spencer Duhm
ah ok
quite low 1/16 that she has one then
just now

Debbie Wanner
mhm

I have a lot of experience in life and I don't think I have ever been so frusterated. As I told Caleb we are being treated as if we are lepers. No one wants to associate with us, no one wants to talk to us about the game. Especially when people like Caleb bait us with "What are you thinking about the vote" and then fail to answer when you respond. It is beyond annoying and has tipped me off my rocking chair. Yesterday Julia is all for an alliance between myself her, Sash and Caleb and today it was like it did not even exist.

Julia I'm so gonna be idol'd out I bet Dana has it lol or sash Debbie Wanner I don't think so. Julia welp idk who to vote who are you voting? Debbie Wanner I don't know yet None of the mountain people have really talked to me about the vote You have a bit, but it is a little frusterating to be honest Julia that would make me nervous too all I've heard is Dana and sash but I don't even think they know who they're voting for I mean would you vote one of them? I know it's like mtn vs coast rn but like Debbie Wanner yes Julia idk blegh it's so awkward I feel awk saying that Debbie Wanner it was two flipping rounds But I guess its easier to go with the people you know then the people you don't Completely honest Sash is down to vote Dana, I don't know about Dana but I think she is going to vote Sash so I don't think anyone on the mountain is getting any votes. I wasn't kidding when I said I would like to work with Caleb or Julia. But I understand if you have to wait a round or two to trust me Julia yeah like I don't wanna be like SIDE VS SIDE but it just seems like that's gonna be it I think sugar campaigned for sash last night when I tossed out Dana's name so I think they were leaning towards that everyone is worried you for get together and idol one of us I guess Debbie Wanner Well have you been to the mountain? Julia huh I'm a mtn-er lol Debbie Wanner err i meant the floating island Julia yes! just once I got nothing -_- it was a waste of time not even bout by loins Debbie Wanner right but you know that the probability of finding an idol is slim Julia 1/36 shot Debbie Wanner Sash hasn't even gone I am just terrified that your guys idol paranoia is going to get me booted. And lose someone that is actually wanting to work with you Julia no I agree it's stupid and idols are dumb and I hate them but I'm not position to call shots or anything I literally just wanna vote with majority am I really the only person talking to you? Debbie Wanner yes

Caleb Reynolds What is happening with this vote. This tribe is such a mess Debbie Wanner Don't get me started Caleb Reynolds Is somethings g decided LMAO!! Debbie Wanner I already half chewed out half whined at Julia I mean it is clear that the Coast people are biblical lepers And I was being legitimate when I said I wanted to work with Julia and yourself. But I just feel like no one wants to talk any legitimate game with me And it is making me go old lazy crazy And then he stopped responding... I wanted to kill him.

It makes sense and if I was in the alternative role I would probably be doing something similar. But across the board no one is talking to me. When I was on special military assignment in Vietnam I would go into town to get supplies because I was viewed as someone that was not a threat. When I was in town no one would look at me, and since I didn't speak the language of the land very well I was ignored and often avoided. That is how I feel when the topic of gameplay with anyone from the mountain. Doesn't matter if it is Sakai, Ki, the apparent on the outs people like Spencer or Matty, they just ignore me when game starts talking. I couldn't help myself because frankly even if I survive I am not going to get anywhere with this bubble around those six. I want to start fresh. Butch and Gervase are not apart of my long term plans and frankly Caleb is a lot better looking than Reynold, I just need that olive branch extended to me.

Unfortunately I think my outbursts are going to be my downfall which is a real shame. Being on this show probably makes my top 10 favorite jobs that I have done list. If I go it won't be for lack of trying, it will likely because I tried way to hard. It is taking all the power in my bones not to post "You know against popular believe, People on the Coast would love to play the game as well and not just be excluded like older dogs and cats in shelters. Adopt people, breeders are greedy."

Apparently the vote is Dana, which might be what they are telling Sash and I, as they are telling Sash to Sugar and Dana. Which means it could be either of them, or it could be Sugar or I. It is really driving me nuts and I doubt I will know for sure what is going on until results are posted.

Debbie Wanner
I think Jefra and Caleb are really tight

Sugar Baby
I do too
Like Jefra/Caleb/Julia
it's out of our control Deb-Deb

Debbie Wanner
their karmas are all super high too

Sugar Baby
I noticed that early on and I shook my head like that's such a rookie mistake
just now
like Caleb you're at like 10 karma, want to be Shogun twice, got awarded immunity at tribal council.... how bad do you want to be merge boot? because that's how you become merge boot for being an obvious threat




SEED PLANTED.

I just kind of gave up on trying to figure out what is going on. I voted Dana because that is what they are expecting me to do. Hopefully I am just paranoid and they are voting her. I'd hate to leave the game but I was talking to Sugar and she just said calm down there because there is nothing we can do at this point.

Fingers crossed.
