Final 34




So, the challenge today went exactly as I had expected it would. Leos was about as useful as Sekou was, and Colby could not get through his puzzle, Sekou didn't show or say a word to anyone and Rory sat out.



Our 6 player live challenge was done with only 3 people basically. I posted a list of Possibilities for the 4 letters we had, and Kim found Inferno from the list. I then guessed the numerical code when we only figured out 4 of the puzzles, and Alex and I did the last part as quickly as flood control allowed us to.



But there is just far too much dead weight on this tribe, and next time we don't even have a sit out, so hopefully we have a chance at winning without Sekou's help.



Fortunately, Kim Alex and I solidifed our alliance of 3, kind of out of necessity, we should be the ones in control of the tribe. I didn't think it could get worse than Gwadatim and Gwadatoo, but SURE ENOUGH lol.



Rory has to go first. I don't even understand how he won Season 1 at this point, or any game for that matter. Sekou is more active than him, and that is just embarassing. All my brothers don't wanna play and just incest on being inactive trolls, and Ibreheim is more boring to talk to than the Dogs at Petsmart . At least I still have my Grindette Vecepia, though we are seperated by a mountain of molten magma atm, my love for her burns more violently than 1000 Volcanoes, and I long to see her again.

[Ted Rogers]

I formed a good relationship with Rob pre-game, and now its paying off. Below we shared information about our tribes with one another. Poseidon has a lot of the same problems we do. Carter and Colby are 2 sides of the same coin, Mary can't do jigsaw puzzles (WTF!) and Kelly utterly failed to show up to the challenge despite being there and ready not that long before it. What happened there?! I suspected Jason's tribe would be a mess, because he has no clue who most of these players are and got stick with people the other captains didn't really want. Jason never showed for the challenge, I don't know if he said whether he could or couldn't however.



I hope goes because he is a little scheming douche and is onto me and I don't need him around, plus he'd probably repeat whatever I tell him. But it is sounding like Kelly is the one who really dropped the ball here, badly. Kelly going, is not necesarily a bad thing, I have no relationship with her from season 1 and quite frankly I don't even know how to talk to her, its weird, all of out communication since SI-4 and now is just awkward.



Rob did very well in the challenge and will hopefully stick around. He isn't afriad to share information with me and no one else is on the tribe is volunteering it so this is great news.

Andy Cook 12:13 pm

*spot
what going on with your tribe
anyone planning on quitting?

Andy Cook 12:15 pm
lol i doubt it
im a little nervous

Ted Rogers 12:19 pm
I bet, well you got Pete and Carter
I dunno how well u know Carter though
it seems like to me, Cochran is the guy most on the outs on your tribe
I think you're gonna be fine, I hope you will

Andy Cook 12:20 pm
carter is all about making big moves
i think hes trying to make up for his lackluster SI:5 game

Ted Rogers 12:20 pm
oh man he is playing hard this time huh?
to redeem the whole "The Derp" title

Ted Rogers 12:23 pm
what big move could Carter do the first round of the game anyway

Andy Cook 12:27 pm
like last round he kept saying we should take out a big threat
when sekous name was brought up

Ted Rogers 12:27 pm
oh yea, what did he think of Jonas being a big threat?

Andy Cook 12:28 pm
he was OK with t
it

Ted Rogers 12:28 pm
but probably wasnt like his first choice
it was scary how quickly that was decided right

Andy Cook 12:28 pm
no kidding
freaky
i think the possible options of being voted out are me, Kelly and Jason
and Cochran

Ted Rogers 12:29 pm
I'd be shocking if the Captain left first
how did you perform in the live challenge?

Andy Cook 12:29 pm
well
especially considering by reputation from challenges last season
I mean first off, I was there lol
and I solved 2 of the puzzles
before anyone else had finished any

Ted Rogers 12:30 pm
LOL nice:-D
you're gonna completely revese your reputatio

Andy Cook 12:30 pm
lol we will see about that
im still going through the post at the crusher council

Ted Rogers 12:31 pm
I know Cochran sat out, but what about Kelly and Jason

Ted Rogers 12:31 pm
at my challenge, everyone was there but Sekou

Andy Cook 12:31 pm
kelly was there about a half an hour before the challenge
said she would be there
then left and never came back

Ted Rogers 12:32 pm
ahhhh yea, she's hardly ever on too
I havent seen her on AIM
so you guys were down a member like us, we didnt have Sekou

Andy Cook 12:32 pm
and jason wasnt there either

Ted Rogers 12:32 pm
and Boston Rob..cant do puzzles, cause he is on a phone

Andy Cook 12:32 pm
it was 4 of us

Ted Rogers 12:32 pm
Jason wasn't either oh man

Andy Cook 12:33 pm
and mary's computer wouldnt let her do puzzles
so it was me and pete for the puzzles

Ted Rogers 12:33 pm
Yea now I see why u guys had sucha hardtime

Andy Cook 12:33 pm
cause carter coudlnt figure out the first one

Ted Rogers 12:33 pm
LOL omg exact same situation here
Colby couldnt do puzzles either

Ted Rogers 12:33 pm
Colby was like Carter
like he could do the puzzle but he couldnt figure it out
Mary like Boston Rob, they couldnt even do the puzzle at all

Andy Cook 12:34 pm
exactly

Ted Rogers 12:34 pm
so yea...just wasn't our day

Andy Cook 12:34 pm
lol not at all

Ted Rogers 12:34 pm
no way you should go home
at all

Andy Cook 12:35 pm
im crossing my fingers

BTW, since so many PWs disliked by Jonas vote, sorry if I offended you, I didnt realize so many of the PWs were Japanese in real life!?

<---- You have a closeup of my eyes and you still didn't know? You wacist

[Ted Rogers]

First if all your Vietnamese not Japanese, we didn't deal with you hooks until 20 years after pearl harbor

[Ted Rogers]

Last round, Kelly went home, which honestly doesn't affect my game all that much. It caused Jason to lose a close ally but thats basically it... However this round:




Final 32




First of all, I gotta hand it to you Bastard, I absolutely love this twist, for several reasons:








Kudumu was going to tribal council already anyway. There wasn't really much preventing that, Colby and Leos both suck at challenges and said they can't do puzzles they said. So for me, all this does is gives me a chance to guarantee my own safety at tribal council, and ensure Sekou goes. Though, I don't think I need immunity this time, but it wouldn't hurt to have it.

Another reason this twist is so beneficial is it forces all the other tribes to lose a member, when we were gonna lose one anyway, so fucking delicious man, like fried chicken with EXTRA barbeque sauce. I am eagar to see how the war on Tres en Gwad is gonna go down, and cross my fingers that the little blunt ginger smart ass on Poseidon surrenders to the judgement of the Sea God.





Now, hosties be asking me, should Sekou go home this time, what about next vote, assuming Kudumu is even still a tribe then. Tough decision, I have an alliance with Kim and Alex, and I bet you the choice will be Colby, since Kim is close to Leos. Leos and Colby have not talked game to me at all, just drinks and Game of Thrones. If they do approach me, their choice would probably be Alex. Alex is a bigger threat to my game than Colby, however, voting off Alex would infuriate Kim and alienate me from the Pentagon. I faced a similar Dilemma in Sausage 1 choosing between the obvious choice of Bob Dawg, or Kim's closest ally Jason. Do I want to repeat a past mistake? I should have voted Jason, but I don't even know if that would have saved me in SI-1, so was it even a mistake. I am more on the fence about this than I thought I would be.

[Ted Rogers]

I am sure Kim or Alex will win this, they cannot help themselves, they are desperate to needlessly put targets on their backs. The idol clue I will get from one of them, and the immunity I don't need, so its not worth the target it puts on me. Hell, if they all pull a fast one on me and vote me off instead of Sekou I will laugh so hard at this post, but I don't see it happening.


I am admittedly worried for my Coach. Losing him this early could obliterate my chances of an end-game finish, because he was the only person I could trust 100% here. Truthfully, it doesn't matter as long as Elyse DOESN'T win, but she will be playing for her Sausage Life and I have a feeling the Succubus well go into overdive to pull it off. If Elyse does in fact win, Coach's life will depend on will of :ibrehem:, whom is about as dull and sharp as a bowling ball and .....




I have also found out that Vecepia and Elyse are in the middle of a very bitter feud from GvsE. This is wonderful and bad at the same time, I will need to choose a side, my Grindette, or my Imp. I do kind of hope this situation resolves itself without my interference however, but it should be fun to see nonetheless. Whichever side is left standing will be the one I will go with, there are some pros and cons to each:







Pros:

She is close with Coach, and generally shunned by most everyone else. Me Coach and her could form a very tight alliance. It's Ublaz, I can't trust him 100% but he can be a powerful and useful ally who doesn't really have many options in the game besides us.


Cons:

She's a very capable player and an excellent liar. Trust is a bit of an issue here, and he won't be easy to beat in challenges towards the end. She also won't be bringing in too many other people under her control, so she won't help much with controlling votes or the numbers as she would in a normal game








Pros: Vecepia is in a more powerful position. Being with her gives me safety from Wanda and Alexis for a little while, and whom ever else might be in her group, possibly Kourtney if her and Alexis make up.


Cons: Vecepia is in a more powerful position. Vecepia does not NEED me nearly as much as Elyse does. I am sure Vecepia would want to take me pretty far, but to the very end seems a longshot. Vecepia and Ted are also a very obvious alliance, both black and I was gushing over her in SI-5. Elyse and Ted, such an unlikely alliance, most people might remember we didn't really like one another.




Weighing the pros and cons here....it actually seems like is a better choice for me, which is surprising. Of course if Elyse goes, I will be 100% in with Vecepia's vagina group and won't have anything awkward stopping me for awhile. A lot depends on how this vote goes I can't wait to see!

[Ted Rogers]

My PM to


I spoke to Ibrehem, it's a big risk if he repeats anything or implicates me. In my experience with him he doesn't really do that too much, but I can tell he was bothered by what I said, which means he was a little closer to Miki than i'd like. I told him that if Elyse is immune, he could be the target, and showed the confessional I was speaking of.


I think the best move for you especially is to back up what I said, tell him that Miki told you to vote for Ibrehem if Elyse wins immunity. Now Miki probably told him to vote for you if Elyse wins immunity. This will back up the story and may finally break into his thick and very dull skull what needs to be done here. He says Miki has been nice to him, she is fake nice to EVERYONE!


The rest is in your hands now, I hope Ibrehem won't fuck up my game now and this will help you. Ibrehem and I have developed a trust over another game so I think he will believe me and not implicate me.


Good luck man!





Ted Rogers 7:54 pm
what's going on your tribe, im sure it's a lot more contested there

Ibreheim 7:54 pm
Not sure yet haha

Ted Rogers 7:56 pm
I heard you might be the target if elyse wins immunity, but elyse is the main target

Ibreheim 7:56 pm
Who told you tha
that*

Ibreheim 7:56 pm
?

Ted Rogers 7:57 pm
You will keep it between us? I want to keep some darkies around:-\

Ibreheim 7:57 pm
Yeah

Ibreheim 7:59 pm
...

Ted Rogers 7:59 pm
sorry im afriad to say cause it gets out I might go home over here

Ibreheim 8:00 pm
You can trust me
I dont go to people

Ted Rogers 8:01 pm
allright, well Miki is still pissed at you, for some reason, she says you think your in control of tribe
in season 2

Ibreheim 8:01 pm
Dont know where that came from but anyway
Me and Miki never had any problems in season 2...

Ted Rogers 8:02 pm
she says u told Judd things
and it pissed her off

Ibreheim 8:02 pm
Dont know what shes talking about lol
but whatever haha

Ted Rogers 8:02 pm
but Elyse is the main target
hold on, lemme see something

Ibreheim 8:02 pm
k

Ted Rogers 8:03 pm
I'll check season 2

Ibreheim 8:03 pm
k lol

Ibreheim (come2meok) is offline 8:04 pm
IMs are delivered when the buddy signs in. Send Ibreheim (come2meok) a text message
Ted Rogers 8:04 pm
u here still?

Ibreheim (come2meok) is available 8:10 pm
Ibreheim 8:10 pm
Still ehre

Ted Rogers 8:12 pm
kk
im rereading season 2

Ibreheim 8:12 pm
ok

Ted Rogers 8:13 pm
Miki's confessional
OK, I think I found it
This is the game of idiots. Everyone cept the girls on my tribe and Michael are idiots. Ibrehem thinks he is in charge of my tribe. But he couldn't tell his dick from his asshole. I just let him think he is charge. If he wants run around and tell people he is in charge let him. Fucking idiot why would you tell Judd of all people your pulling strings over here? The only string you'll ever pull are the ones from the tampon in your nostrils after I show you who is in charge.
my ytex

Ibreheim 8:14 pm
Wasnt that from early in the game?

Ted Rogers 8:14 pm
Yes it was pretty early

Ibreheim 8:14 pm
We never really had issues

Ted Rogers 8:14 pm
I think page 3

Ibreheim 8:14 pm
but anyway

Ted Rogers 8:15 pm
well I heard if elyse is immune, it could be you, but Coach is also an outsider

Ibreheim 8:15 pm
Is it Miki telling you all this?

Ted Rogers 8:15 pm
the thing is I know elyse is a killer in challenges
Yup, her and I had been talking about the tribes. Miki and Kim are close, I know from Gsurvivor

Ibreheim 8:16 pm
Well, Miki is a two face then because we have been chatting completely normally

Ted Rogers 8:16 pm
but I trust you more atm

Ibreheim 8:17 pm
Anyway, we will see when results come up how things start to go down.
I will gage it from that I guess.

Ted Rogers 8:17 pm
results pretty soon too

Ibreheim 8:17 pm
yeah

Ted Rogers 8:17 pm
I didnt do amazing, I couldnt really do the jigsaw on my laptop

Ibreheim 8:17 pm
I did horrible
lol

Ted Rogers 8:17 pm
so I focused on the others
I know Phillip and Sekou are going we will be the only black men left
well, Vecepia too...

Ibreheim 8:20 pm
lol

Ted Rogers 8:20 pm
what do you think of Vecepia?
do you think we could do a black alliance?

Ibreheim 8:21 pm
dont know her well renough
sure haha

Ted Rogers 8:21 pm
we'll see, I dont know her super well either

Ibreheim 8:21 pm
ok

Ted Rogers 8:21 pm
I like black alliances but rory sekou and phillip.....
they suck sooo much man...
so much :-(

Ibreheim 8:22 pm
yeah
haha
g2g for a bit ttyl

Ted Rogers 8:22 pm
ok I'll ttyl

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a huge risk for my game. If Ibrehem says anything, I am alienated from the Pentagon and may end up making a lot of enemies. I will be a dead man walking really. I probably should not have done this. But it's hard for me to stand by and watch Coach get destroyed when Miki who I cant trust for shit and just messages me with "hooker" "slut" "whore" as her first words and is fake with everyone. If this ends up getting Ibrehem to vote with Coach, Elyse and Judd however, It will all be worth it. It's a big risk, which is what this game is all about sometimes. I'm crossing my fingers on this[/center]

[Ted Rogers]

I did it! One of my "Nuclear Bombs" hit their targets! I scared Ibrehem enough to make him coming running to Coach ready to take down a member of Brandon's alliance, particularly Mikayla. The target is either Brandon or Miki. Now I hope to god its Miki, Brandon leaving now is not AS ideal, because I trust him a lot more than Miki, but I won't cry any tears. Miki is completely fake and has alliances with everyone already, and will betray me in a heartbeat. Brandon could also random.org me at anytime, but I think he trusts me more and wouldnt until late game. Brandon going also severs the Ted-Dawg F2 and takes a target off me. The best part is, unless Ibrehem blabs, they won't know I had any involvement or dropped any "Nukes".

Coach tells me that Elyse is in the state of mind that Brandon MUST go home, and she will not vote anyone but Brandon. Elyse is convinced Candice will vote Brandon with her. Elyse is stupid and doesn't realize Candice is probably telling her exactly what she wants to hear, why would Candice vote against Miki and Brandon?


Regardless, Judd also says he refuses to vote for Brandon anyway to Coach. Elyse can't let it go, she is not in position to make these demands, she is on the chopping block, she needs to just go with the flow here.


Coach now has a plan, since Elyse is just so hellbent on voting off Brandon, is to just go along with Judd and Ibrehem and vote , Let Elyse try her thing with Candice.


This yields too possible scenarios:


is lying to Elyse ( extremely likely)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

gets 3 votes from Brandon, Miki and Candice

gets 3 votes from Judd, Ibrehem and Coach

gets 1 vote from an overzealous, arrogant and misinformed Elyse


goes home in the revote, 3 to 2



is actually telling the truth


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

gets 2 votes from Brandon and Miki

gets 2 votes from Elyse and Candice

gets 3 votes from Coach, Judd and Ibrehem



goes home, and all is right in the world




My chat with below, its very long but very informing and interesting, split into 2 parts, hope you like!



Coach Wade 10:18 pm
Ibe messaging me whilst I'm invisible

Ted Rogers 10:18 pm
omg u can even gain Ibrehems trust by giving him your idol clue

Coach Wade 10:18 pm
he's nervous

Ted Rogers 10:18 pm
good, I made him nervous
thats what I wanted

Coach Wade 10:20 pm
Ibe wants to vote Miki
he's coming on strong
nice job!

Ted Rogers 10:20 pm
YES
yes
YES
yes!!!
:-)
you're very welcome, but who should REALLY thank me?
is Tyrion
err Elyse
now all u need is Judd and your good to go

Coach Wade 10:22 pm
This is gold
what did you do to the man?

Ted Rogers 10:22 pm
only what I said in the convo in the PM
I convinced him he was the target if Elyse was immune
which is believable

Ted Rogers 10:29 pm
tell me more8-)

Coach Wade 10:31 pm
Well this is going to be messier
than we thought

Ted Rogers 10:31 pm
uhhh oh!

Coach Wade 10:31 pm
because these idiots won't agree on a target

Ted Rogers 10:32 pm
but its one of the 3..is Judd on?

Coach Wade 10:32 pm
Elyse wants to kill Brandon and Ibe wants to kill Miki

Ted Rogers 10:32 pm
tell Elyse to just give in to Miki
*
Ibrehem
she is lucky enough its not her, she is not in position to force a vote
she should just go with anything that is not her ass

Ted Rogers 10:33 pm
Plus, Elyse doesnt know Judd wont do Brandon?

Coach Wade 10:35 pm
Elyse is saying that Judd wants to vote Brandon. I don't buy it
I think Elyse just wants to take Brandon out now

Ted Rogers 10:35 pm
hmmmmm...I thought he was firmly against it
least to your face

Coach Wade 10:35 pm
Last we talked, he was

Ted Rogers 10:36 pm
ok, well...I hope Elyse isnt shooting herself in the foot
this is a golden opportunity, and Ibrehem is on board
if she alienates him with this, that could be disaster
once Judd's on you guys can figure it out

Coach Wade 10:36 pm
Elyse seems to think Candice is on board with something here
I dunno what she's doing!
She's made it complicated

Ted Rogers 10:37 pm
Candice...won't be

Coach Wade 10:37 pm
I know
Me, Ibe, Elyse, Judd
it's simple

Ted Rogers 10:37 pm
Candice is lying to Elyse

Coach Wade 10:37 pm
Obviously
But try telling ublaz he doesn't know something
or that he might be wrong

Ted Rogers 10:38 pm
yea true...I think I meddled enough, i took a big risk getting Ibrehem on board
I dont wanna take anymore risks especially with you immune
just gonna hope this works out
sure wish Judd was on

Coach Wade 10:40 pm
There's no need for you to get involved with this at all
you've done a great job honetly
you broke the man

Ted Rogers 10:40 pm
:-)
Allright, good luck, I know its tough dealing with Ublaz, his ego is out of control
Brandon is the BIGGEST move, I cans ee why he wants to do that
I cant blame him

Coach Wade 10:45 pm
iaintagrump (12:23:59 AM): Candice doesn't want to cross Miki though and would likely tellher before the vote that Brandon is going.


coach.wade 3:44 am
I think that last part is true



Kaitlin Grier 3:44 am
Doubtful. Candice told me just now she'd vote for Miki if that's what had to be done, but she'd still prefer Brandon
This is what I'm dealing with
Candice told him
No shit
she's lying
He thinks he's a master of the social game and he's been "working" Candice for a few days, so now he thinks they're BFFs
this is the problem
they're not
So what I'm gonna do is just talk to Judd
see who he honestly wants to vote for
me and Ibe and Judd will do that
Elyse will do whatever
might be we don't get 4 but we can tie it
which isn't ideal
but this is gonna get too complicated otherwise

Ted Rogers 10:47 pm
could be a 3--3-1

Coach Wade 10:47 pm
That's what I'm thinking

Ted Rogers 10:47 pm
and then she will grow a brain
and vote in the revote

Coach Wade 10:47 pm
Exactly
once the votes are out there

Ted Rogers 10:47 pm
she'll see Candice lied
or who knows
maybe did what she said, but u still get the result

Coach Wade 10:47 pm
If Candice is genuine and they both hit out at Brandon, then so be it
we still get our vote
if Judd says he actually wants to vote Brandon now

Ted Rogers 10:48 pm
3 Miki, 3 Elyse, 1 Brandon

Coach Wade 10:48 pm
then I guess we do that

Ted Rogers 10:48 pm
Ibrehem is game?

Coach Wade 10:48 pm
Ibe will do whatever it takes to be on this side now
I think
he's scared

Ted Rogers 10:48 pm
ok excellent

Coach Wade 10:48 pm
and I can give him the clue like you say
if he needs more assurances

Ted Rogers 10:48 pm
I would

Coach Wade 10:48 pm
these clues are kind of worthless tbh
I mean
not totally

Ted Rogers 10:48 pm
he wont find an idol anyway

Coach Wade 10:48 pm
But yeah
with it being publically known who goes in there
each time

Coach Wade 10:49 pm
it's going to become less of a big thing
somebody will get it from 2 clues
likely they'll get it this week

Ted Rogers 10:51 pm
maybe one of us, but u can only try one time

Ted Rogers 10:51 pm
tbh I dont like this system

Coach Wade 10:51 pm
I agree
It's obviously
meant to be less about having an idol
and more about the perception of having an idol

Ted Rogers 10:51 pm
if the second clue narrows it down heavily, we can both go with different possibilities

Coach Wade 10:51 pm
I know what they're doing
You could go in with jack shit and people would still be scared
whoever goes in there first has power

Ted Rogers 10:52 pm
but only being able to go 1 time makes it so u dont want to go until you got quite a few clues

Coach Wade 10:52 pm
they might wind up being a huge blindside target
or they could bluff the game in a big way
I know
but if you were confident enough
you could go in and bluff it
not win
but nobody else will want to rush in and check

Ted Rogers 10:52 pm
yup

Coach Wade 10:52 pm
it's a mind game

Ted Rogers 10:52 pm
I could see someone who knows they are gonna be voted off anyway
doing that
as a last ditch effort

Coach Wade 10:58 pm
I'm actually wondering
if Judd says Miki
if we should avoid telling Elyse
tbh
and just hope for the tie
I feel like Elyse wants this so bad
that she'll fuck it up somehow

Ted Rogers 10:59 pm
I see, if Judd and Ibrehem are comfortable with it possibly being a tie, 3-3-1 then yea
Elyse has no idea she is putting herself in such jeopardy
when she is absically guaranteed to stay
right now

Coach Wade 11:00 pm
Yeah
It's all down to what Judd says
tbh if Judd straight up says to me
lets vote Brandon
Ibe said he'd do it even though I can tell he's scowling
you've broken him

Ted Rogers 11:03 pm
:-D











and Part 2:





Ted Rogers 11:03 pm
:-D

Coach Wade 11:06 pm
Kaitlin Grier 4:01 am
I have a great vote planned
It's a vote


Kaitlin Grier 4:02 am
Then on that vote, there's another little vote that says "Brandon"
Then the main vote has a picture of Bob Dawg
And says
"Yo Dawg, I heard you like votes, so I put a vote on your vote, so you can leave while you leave."
god
he's
obsessed

Ted Rogers 11:06 pm
allright...I see...yea I agree with your plan then, if Judd doesn't want Brandon

Coach Wade 11:06 pm
I think it's safer
Judd will wind up spilling something anyway because he's Judd
I want
to get off
this fucking
tribe

Ted Rogers 11:07 pm
Elyse will be angry if Candice did tell truth, and it ended up being 3-2-2
3 Miki, 2 Brandon, 2 Ekyse, but I'd be SHOCKED

Coach Wade 11:07 pm
It's a lot to gamble really
The simplest
and nicest solution

Ted Rogers 11:07 pm
its a lot to gamble for Elyse

Coach Wade 11:07 pm
to ALL of this
is if Judd says he's voting Brandon
we can hope

Ted Rogers 11:08 pm
well you also, because if Elyse kills herself, you're once again in a HORRIBLE position
so your survival is partially dependent on Elyse's survival
which makes this all the more frustrating

Coach Wade 11:08 pm
I know
I Just hope they swap after this round
I can't work with these people

Ted Rogers 11:09 pm
I believe swap will be at 24:-X

Coach Wade 11:09 pm
Bryce and his open mouth and emotions
ublaz and his enormous ego
Ibe and his

Ted Rogers 11:09 pm
but I would be more than glad to get off Kudumu early

Coach Wade 11:09 pm
Ibe
Yeah
I'm not completely buying we'll just change up
but I dunno

Ted Rogers 11:09 pm
I got a man who only says Oh Men
a guy whose always drunk

Ted Rogers 11:10 pm
and Alex and Kim whoa re sneaky Mofos who I feel could do me in at any time

Coach Wade 11:10 pm
I've ignored almost every single IM colby sent me so far
I'm proud

Ted Rogers 11:10 pm
Boston Rob and Colby have not appraoched me for one word of game talk

Coach Wade 11:10 pm
Boston Rob and Colby
can't do game talk
they're awful
Leos' claim to fame is being a huge sucker
he hasn't since improved much

Ted Rogers 11:11 pm
which implies to me either A. They are foolish, B. They already have a deal with Kim and I am done after Sekou, or C. They are afraifd I will report to Kim what they say

Coach Wade 11:11 pm
Tbh
I wouldn't put it past them having a deal with Kim

Ted Rogers 11:11 pm
Kim chose Leos, they do
but I also have the Pentagon with Kim

Ted Rogers 11:12 pm
I think Colby is odd man out
I have thought about
taking out Alex, if BR and Colby would talk game to me
but I fear if it got back to Kim or Alex would compromise me
so I will wait for them to entertain the idea

Coach Wade 11:13 pm
You think Kim and Alex have a thing going on?

Ted Rogers 11:13 pm
Kim told me they do
she is very close to him
and said we should make an alliance and control the tribe
BR and Colby then just pawns to be disposed of

Coach Wade 11:14 pm
Hopefully

Coach Wade 11:14 pm
if we take out a pentagon member this round, she might feel the need to keep you more

Ted Rogers 11:14 pm
exactly
and both Brandon and Miki are members
and hopefully they will never know my involvement

Coach Wade 11:15 pm
There's no reason they should
Unless Ibe snapped but
the man is a closed book

Ted Rogers 11:15 pm
I am a little skeptical of Ibrehem
it was a calculated risk

Coach Wade 11:16 pm
If your intel
works for him this round
he won't sell you out

Ted Rogers 11:16 pm
my intel was false....because Miki never said Ibe was next after Elyse
she said you were

Coach Wade 11:16 pm
Yeha
Yeah
I know
but he doesn't need to know that

Ted Rogers 11:16 pm
but if he believes it thats all that matters

Coach Wade 11:16 pm
The point is it looked like you helped him out
he gets onto a majority side

Ted Rogers 11:17 pm
yup

Coach Wade 11:17 pm
if it works for him, he'll be good with it

Ted Rogers 11:17 pm
well I did, because he was 4th with them

Coach Wade 11:17 pm
I know
The best lies have some truth tossed in

Ted Rogers 11:17 pm
LOL, wise words from Sam

Coach Wade 11:17 pm
haha
Ibe is the only person who could sell you out for this move
Nobody else even suspects you're involved
do they?

Ted Rogers 11:18 pm
nope, I did give basic info to Elyse

Ted Rogers 11:18 pm
like Brandon chose Miki first
but nothing she could heavily use against me

[Ted Rogers]

Is this a plan by to get me to say a name and use it against me? Needless to say I wont tell her a name, and I will stick to voting Sekou. If Kim or Alex want to alienate Colby or Boston Rob, I hope they do it, very much .


If Sekou does have the idol however, then LOL ;D. It can't be who gets idoled so idgaf.



Kim Powers 12:34 am
should we
like
split the vote

Ted Rogers 12:37 am
sure, we could to be 100% safe

Kim Powers 12:38 am
I just don't know who to throw votes to
without people getting mad

Ted Rogers 12:38 am
could do 3 Sekou and 2 someone else
even just 1 on someone else is enough though

Kim Powers 12:39 am
I know but who would we split it between
sekou and who

Ted Rogers 12:41 am
I dunno, hmm maybe we can ask Alex when he's on
who would Sekou vote?

Kim Powers 12:41 am
no idea lol
listen though, i'm like falling asleep
i'll be around tomorrow

Ted Rogers 12:41 am
kk i'll ttyl :-)

Kim Powers 12:42 am
night!

[Ted Rogers]

Hey Kim, you're a moron.

SEKOU DOESN'T HAVE A FUCKING IDOL,


stop being paranoid!









Kim Powers 2:46 pm
What do you think?
I'm so nervous about this idol

Ted Rogers 2:47 pm
I'm gonna stick with my sekou vote

Kim Powers 2:49 pm
What if he found it though? I know it's unlikely but you never know

Ted Rogers 2:51 pm
you and Alex can vote for either BR or Colby if you're worried, I trust they are also voting Sekou

Kim Powers 2:51 pm
I haven't seen Alex online

Kim Powers 2:51 pm
I guess I'll just vote sekou











Ted Rogers 3:11 pm
Hey Cartah!

carter williams 3:11 pm
hey carter

Ted Rogers 3:11 pm
LOL

carter williams 3:11 pm
hahah Ted*

Ted Rogers 3:11 pm
you derp :-)

carter williams 3:11 pm
I know
i got a lot of things on my mind

Ted Rogers 3:12 pm
no problem, are you worried about the vote my nigga?

carter williams 3:12 pm
just dont know what to do

Ted Rogers 3:12 pm
hmmm
how is your relationships with your season 5 guys, Rob and Pete?
maybe u guys can make something happen

carter williams 3:14 pm
i am closer with pete
rob was quite the flipper

Ted Rogers 3:14 pm
I heard:-X

Ted Rogers 3:16 pm
that may be your best move now though cause you dont really know the others at all though, thats all I can think of
good luck my nigga!

carter williams 3:17 pm
hahah im narrowing my options down
your tribe has an easy vote




^^^^^ Another Moron.. Carter: Hey Carter

He can be forgiven though, he is still just a wittle baby

[Ted Rogers]

According to Cartah, Jason is the target and according to Coach, Judd reluctantly decided on Brandon, but he is super flaky and all over the place and still difficult to predict what he will actually do.

Coach is fed up dealing with him and just hope all goes well with the Brandon vote. Judd is impossible to control. You cannot tell Judd how to vote, because he will reject it and feel like you are trying to control him. You cannot give Judd options, because he cannot make up his own mind. He is a very difficult player to deal with.


The fact of the matter is Coach admits I got Ibrehem terrified and he is on board with him now, but it is Elyse and Judd who are fucking things up seriously now, when Ibrehem was the biggest obstacle for a coup de tat before. It's out of my hands and Coach's hands now, we did everything we could to make the vote happen. I won't be that upset about Elyse leaving, but it would compromise Coach's position quite badly.



Brandon and Jason both leaving will scare the daylights out of Kim, and should make her need me even more than before. She won't do anything insane and blindside me, so this vote is ideal if it plays out like I believe it will. Phillip and Neleh are also going home, but that doesn't really affect me directly on Kudumu.


I'll be eagarly awaiting these results at Pet Smart. If Sekou really does play an idol, I'll be quite thrilled, especially if its Kim that leaves and gets her out of game without any blood on my hands and no chance of retaliation from her many allies.









Coach Wade 3:05 pm
It's Brandon
This won't be messy
thank fuck

Ted Rogers 3:05 pm
ok coool,
wow, he will not see it coming I dont think
well, Candice might tel him Elyse was planning it
but, he wont think it would actually happen

Ted Rogers 3:06 pm
im excited for tonight

Coach Wade 3:06 pm
Me too

Ted Rogers 3:09 pm
I kinda hope sekou plays an idol
and Kim gets out of my hair, without all of her allies wanting to kill me
no blood on me
all on sekou
it would be perfect

Coach Wade 3:10 pm
If Sekou idoled out Kim
that would be the best
use of an idol

Ted Rogers 3:10 pm
she's paranoid of it

Coach Wade 3:10 pm
It'd be amazing


Coach Wade 3:12 pm
wonderful

Coach Wade 3:21 pm
I'm dropping the replacements bomb on Judd
because he just flaked on something
and I need to be 100% sure this is going down

Ted Rogers 3:21 pm
*facepalm*

Coach Wade 3:21 pm
I know
Judd Sergeant 8:19 pm
Did Brandon tell you if we lost another challenge to vote me?
Elyse mentioned something about it.
Which means she dropped a hint of something
so I feel like I need to get it out there

Ted Rogers 3:22 pm
your allies are all flakes

Coach Wade 3:22 pm
I know
I hate this tribe
we are the frosted flakes

Ted Rogers 3:22 pm
you have to micromanage everyone
LOL
u should make an image

[Ted Rogers]

None of them really had too huge an impact on my game tbh, and were very predictable boots. I was much more invested in other tribes than my own interestingly enough.


The plan Coach and I set out to do worked perfectly. At first I was frustrated it went from Miki onto Brandon, but in hindsight taking out Brandon was actually the better move, by a slim margin. He admitted after he left he never intended on working with us and it removes the gigantic target I had being paired with him, two very formidable players who were in a F2 in the past. Now I no longer have to judge those bullets since Brandon has fallen.


Miki also voted with Brandon, alienating herself. Candice was telling the truth and she left Miki out of the picture, so their alliance is done now. Clearly, Candice is closer to her F3 ally Elyse than she ever was to Mikayla, which is good to keep in mind for later.


This tribe swap is bittersweet event. For one, I am thrilled to be off of Kudumu, because I javascript:add("%20>")am gonna go out on a limb and say they were the worst tribe in Sausage history, and I am ashamed to have been a part of it. On the other hand, I felt safe there, Kim needed me and Colby was next to go, but now ANYTHING could happen.



Jason is such a failure lol. Him and his first mate Kelly are both evicted from Poseidon, nice job being a captain Jason, almost as bad as Brandon, who chose 5 tribemates that booted his ass first chance they had.


Jason gave me some crucial important information on his way out.










So annoying getting vital info like this from a phone. Knowledge is power, and this tremendous power here. A four person alliance from the words of dead god, who can deny this? Thank you very much Jason . You may not be that bad a god afterall ;D. My buddy Cartah is playing the game better than I had thought! The Baby is learning quickly.

[Ted Rogers]

Poseidon






What an interesting group here! Let's start in the order they entered after me, which begins with:









Plus her attached augmented friends, Becky and Barbara. She has been very friendly with me, mostly small talk so far. Coach and Mary have a strange relationship, I am not sure if they will work together or not again here. She doesn't seem particularly spiteful to me, and is a big fan of TV shows like GoT, Dexter, The Following. I like talking to Mary a lot and I hope her and Coach can patch up their differences.






She tough to read so far I haven't initiated game talk with her yet but Kim surprisingly wants to get her to come to her side, because Sydney told her to. That is interesting because they don't like each other. Kim then tells me a little later she may want to work with Chase instead. Sandra is not extremely well liked so she will either be a pawn in a key vote, or an easy first target.





I think Eliza and I are on good terms and she isn't completely out to get me, but she knows i'm a good player too. Jake is great friends with her and is telling her to work with Kim now, and Shadow Sydney told Sandra to, so the power players are making the pawns play along with their game. That's all Sandra and Eliza have been so far whether they like it or not, disposable pawns.





Carter really likes me and said outright he wants to work with me, he is also tight with Coach. Coach shared the idol clues with him to gain his trust, I decided to share my list of possible episode title answers with him to gain his trust more. He will be with us and whatever we want to do, which is why I think we can also gain Mary, because like Jason said, Mary and Carter were part of the original Poseidon alliance. Very useful information , I worship the sea god now.





My partner in crime that no one else seems to suspect...yet. I am happy to be on the same tribe but then again it makes it a little harder for the two of us to be distinct from one another. I need to find a way to not only work with Coach, but do so in a way that won't make people see how tight we are, and in a way in which I can take down Kim and her large group of allies, without compromising myself in the process. I do have a plan and it involves a lot of cooperation of Coach's part. It's crazy, and its evil and I will keep you guys in suspense for it. But this is All-Stars and I won't be pullng any punches. I will reveal this plan soon.






Kim is being a very close ally this game but she is also very shady, manipulative and a major backstabbing bitch and as much as I want to trust her to go deep in the game I dunno that I can. I can go with her, and play it safe and hope that I don't get dropped or blindsided around the merge, or I can start to dismantle her and her allies and play my own game. Kim is now on good terms with Shadow....wtf? Her and Miki supposedly entered this game with the intention of destroying Shadow. Now DD is tight with Shadow too? This can't be happening.. Where am I in this picture?. Kim now has severed her ties with Brandon and Jason, which improves my position, but what now..., this complacent acquiescence into Shadow and DD's game is odd. If Kim, DD and Shadow are all going to sort of work together, with me along for the ride, it doesn't really work well for me. I was expecting Kim and Miki to be very solidly AGAINST Sydney, but they are becoming buddies now! I might make it to the jury, maybe mid-jury, but it doesn't particularly sound like a exciting game.


I need to decide, and somewhat soon, do I just go with Kim, ride the large alliance wave all the way to the merge, and just hope for the best, and hope they betray each other and not me, that maybe I can somehow sneak into the end with this group. Or do make an alliance of outcasts with Coach and rise up against them? Starting a big war and potentially putting a big target on myself? Thats where my plan with Coach will come in in the near future. My fate in the game and a lot of how this game will play out is going to be determined a lot by how I approach this tribe and what I do with Kim, do I take her out, or go on this journey with her?


Kim Powers 3:02 pm
well
Sandra wants to work with us
her/Eliza

Ted Rogers 3:03 pm
lol.....and she was the only person u put 0 on

Kim Powers 3:03 pm
yeah

Ted Rogers 3:03 pm
never say never I guess:-\

Kim Powers 3:03 pm
yeah
haha

Ted Rogers 3:03 pm
yes that's fine with me, I know you had issue with sandra I hardly know her

Kim Powers 3:04 pm
she's on AIM now
cause shadow is friends with her
and told her to work with me I think
and Jake is close with Eliza
I really just want Coach gone first







Chase Rice 3:24 pm
right
Well I was fucked on my old tribe
and I felt like Syd and DD were running the show
so that makes sense

Ted Rogers 3:24 pm
I think we talked before about Sydney and how she gets these big pre-game
I know she did in Season 3
esp Mick and Tom, were like vote slaves
she denies it of course

Chase Rice 3:25 pm
Right right
S3 was frustrating

Ted Rogers 3:26 pm
I bet, I was kinda annoyed by the end

Ted Rogers 3:28 pm
I know you played Gsurv1 but rumor was your phone broke:-\
how everything now?

Chase Rice 3:29 pm
I had a lot of issues then
My phone didnt break, I lost my job and it was turned off
and I had some family stuff at the time and it just was something I couldnt balance out
I actually just was leaving ORGs and ended up coming back

Ted Rogers 3:30 pm
Oh ok, omg all this time, Rose told me you dropped it and it broke or something lol

Ted Rogers 3:31 pm
so you didnt have enough money to keep paying for it I guess

Chase Rice 3:33 pm
Well it did get turned off and was getting cut back on and dropped it in a toilet and it had water damage
dont text and piss



Should I make an alliance with a man who dropped his cellphone in his own piss? I probably shouldn't, but I likely am going to. Chase has made his position clear months ago before his cellphone went into the depths of a toilet bowl, and I never heard from him again until now. Now that his cell-phone is urine free, he will make a fantastic ally. He can help us really the troops against the large alliances, and he can add Shawna to the mix. It's no secret they are power rangers and no need for them to try and hide it anymore.







You can't boss him around or tell him how to vote, but he cannot make a decision easily either, and will go off on a tangent over the slighest thing. He is HOPELESSLY in love with Kim and he will tell her everything and do everything she wants.

This is a quote below from Gsurvivor 2, keep in mind, "Natalie" here is Kim in Sausage Island


"Just so you know, these comments about my game play aren't news to me. I didn't really come in with the intention to play differently, but more learn how to use those weaknesses and make them strengths. Unfortunately, I came into this game and pretty soon into it found out a close friend was actually playing with me - Natalie. From that point I vowed a final 2 and I wasn't going to break it though at times I wanted to. So, as it came down to it all, most of what I spread around was purposeful in order to try and help me and her get farther together. I mean, I'm not going to use that as a scapegoat to having a big mouth because I know I have one and there are times I did spread too much or put too much faith in people like normal, but it was mostly all for me and Nat."



" But all that is hindsight and I made my move based on a friendship, not what was best for me. Friends are more to me than the game itself and although I thought I was in a great position, I didn't want to leave a friend in the dust if I could help it. The game is 10x more fun, yet 100x more challenging to play alongside a friend, but if you can make the end, it's worth it! Anyways, enough of that."




Hopeless, anything you tell Judd, will go right to Kim He would sacrifice his own game for her most likely. There is no reasoning or talking to Judd, and if Kim is eliminated he will hate every single person who was involved in her elimination, so Judd will also need to go as well right after. Judd being here gives Kim a vote slave and a lot more power, but if I make people aware, it could increase the target on her.


I need to play this by ear, I am not yet sure how the votes will fall, or who Kim may end up targeting or recruiting to her side. I have a lot to think about it, more to come after this challenge!

[Ted Rogers]

New PM to below






Hey, so last night Judd never showed up and Kim and I had to go at it alone. Kim heard Sydney-Miki-Alex got 83 on theirs, we only got 68. Considering how poor Chase and Cochran did, we are almost certainly heading to tribal council.



I spoke to Kim, she wants to target either Chase or Carter. I think it might be a good now to go for Judd, cause we have a perfect justification, he never showed up for the challenge, and at least Chase/Carter tried. I won't tell Kim right away thats my plan but I think I would towards the end so she isn't blindsided, she'll be upset with me taking out her right hand, but it won't completely cripple my relationship with the Pentagon, and would weaken her hold on the game further.


Another pretty easy target is Sandra, whom Chase is not a fan of and Sydney is controlling, trying to make her work with Kim. Kim also doesn't like her, but is so scared and desperate now she's working with her now. It wouldn't cause as many "waves" as voting out Judd and would still be a beneficial move.



The other option is going right for Kim, which will cause extreme waves and would certainly expell me from the Pentagon, and we'd need to work completely from the outside without me getting vital information. I can justify a Sandra or Judd vote and still be in with them, but there is no way I can pussyfoot around taking out Kim first I realize, it will be a declaration of war on Sydney-DD and Miki. The other problem is if we go for Kim first, there isn't much insulation to protect us from being picked off as "power players" as well.


Targets like Kim, Sydney, DD, Miki, Elyse and so on are all people that players on the outside know are big threats and it won't be difficult to rally support to take them out anytime. We may be better suited setting them up for easy pickings by eliminating their "pawns" who won't make the move on them out of loyalty, so we have the control over their fates in the game. We keep ourselves surrounded by our own pawns, like Carter and Ibrehem. That's why I am somewhat reluctant to go for Kim directly, in SI-4 I could have taken out Kourtney on Talgeni anytime I wanted but I deliberately kept her around for the ensuing war when the merge came, which kept the target off me.


That's how I think we should go about this anyway, but I'd like to know what you think.


I'll talk to you tomorrow.

I think this PM is pretty self explanatory, and is a confession to Coach on my strategy for this game. We weaken the main targets, softening them up, but keep them around as an umbrella of protection, easy targets around the merge to take out when they have no support and a huge target on their back. I believe at this point and time that this is the strategy Coach and I need to employ in order to be successful in this game. Part of me wants to take the easy route and just go with the power players, and ride my way into a merge without much of a hassle, a jury spot and possibly even into the finals. It's very tempting.


The other part of me wants to take control of the game for control my destiny from start to finish. I don't want to have my fate in the hands of Kim, DD and Sydney, but in my own hands. I want at the end of the day to be able to say I played my own game, and not someone else's. It's tough cause I don't want to make Kim upset, I know she trusts me implicitly right now, but I gotta do what I gotta do and whats best for my game. Judd and/or Sandra going now are the best moves for me in the game, cause they will always be with Kim and Sydney, and never with me.

[Ted Rogers]

response:

Sandra sounds the best to me honestly. Based on everything you've told me, if it's damage control you need then we have that with a Sandra vote.

And we have leverage for Chase if he needs persuading. Him being the target would be perfect.

Sucks I'm on the phone tonight at work, will need to work this magic as much as I can before we need to go to tribal
