Well, round 4 ended as quick as it began for me. But a lot did happen in those 24 hours...
For starters, the
Aso boys are pretty much in two alliances. One with the former Sakais and one with the former Ozatos. We did this to cover our bases, and I'd love to take more of the credit, but I really can't. Like I suggested these things, especially ties with Brad because he was desperate, but I never executed it. MEANING that I actively need to be gaming a little harder. The other option is to sit back and let Butch (or kinda Gervase?) take the wheel so that no one really sees me as a threat until later or I become more strategically visible until merge. I don't really want to be targeted by any opposing alliances or people and would rather have that target shifted to my other alliance-mates. Anyways, I think my social game with my tribe, at least, is way better than I've really ever been. I've talked to every single person at some point. Out of my new tribemates, I like Eliza, Jefra, Sydney, and Kat the most. I haven't got that much of an impression on James, and Brad is very interesting like I said last time. I don't hate anyone at all.
Speaking of Brad, Butch, Gervase, and I made a Google doc of all of the things that Brad has told us. Dude's a super shitstorm. In the best way possible, obviously. Here are the things with
slight commentary from us:
|
Brad wants to hook up with any interested men or women in the game
Sakai Majority - Caleb-Julia-Jefra-Eliza
Ki Majority - James-Spencer-JFP-Marisa
Possible (likely tbh) superalliance of Sakai and Ki
On the Outs - Brad-Matty
James probably has double vote
Eliza/Jefra has double vote
Idol paranoia, they think an Aso has one lol (I WISH)
Ki tribe is not around much
Jefra and Eliza are tight
James gives one-word answers, definitely not tight w/ Brad
Spencer is the Ki leader
Julia/Caleb/Jefra? are Sakai leaders

Obviously, some very very interesting things. Do I believe Brad? Probably, but I'm not sure if I should at all. Is that paranoia? Duh, but it's definitely necessary. Let's talk about the challenge now. I DESTROYED that shit. So did Jefra, and she beat me sadly -_-. I'm kicking myself because I could've definitely gone longer had I not screwed up the timestamps. And I would've saved Debbie, had I won the immunities. Now, she's probably royally fucked, unless she pulls herself out of it. Luckily for me, it didn't matter that I wasn't safe because Michele sadly left due to personal reasons. I never want anyone to go out of the game for those reasons, so it's definitely sad to see. I wish her the very best. However, it was definitely between her and James for the chopping block. I personally wanted James to go more because he seems stronger, but Sydney wanted to get rid of Michele because she wouldn't contribute to challenges since she was inactive. Now, it doesn't really matter and we just really need to worry about the double vote...unless we swap again, which isn't outside the realm of possibility. I'm kinda hoping that for the nu
Sakai tribal that a former
Sakai goes because they're 6 strong and that's huge with the numbers. It'll also free up Jefra and Eliza more. It probably won't happen, but I'm hoping for the best :).
Looking to the next round, I want to be the shogun no matter what. I need to go to Ukiyo and get some stuff because I have a decent amount of bounty points. Also, if we lose, it's looking like James will go and hopefully, he won't use his double vote. If we swap, I think I'll be okay with it, but I'd love it if Debbie were still in the game because it'll be nice to have someone seemingly on my side with Gervase and Reynold. Sash is borderline inactive. Anyways, deuces!
