I think this is a really important thing to do. It's necessary that I have my finger on the pulse of this game at all times. I don't want to ever feel as dumb as I did when Brandon and Jason left... I had no idea what was going on in either tribe. However, now I feel that I have the connections in each tribe to never feel so out of the loop. Without further ado, here's my analysis of the other tribes.

Baci



This tribe is an interesting one to me, because it has a combination of players I love, hate and am indifferent toward. I really want to see them go to tribal council, depending on who will leave. Kourtney is playing this game hard, and she wants to create a majority alliance of herself, Shawna, Alexis, Pete and Cochran. I don't know the full extent of the relationship between Kourtney and Alexis, because they had a really rough patch, but if that's not a problem I can see this 5 taking over that tribe. That's actually great for me, because Boston Rob and Elyse are two of my least favorite people on that tribe. I like Boston Rob, but so does everyone else. He has to go early. Elyse is a bitch and I can't wait to see her leave. I would like Candice and Colby to stay, but I'll take what I can get. I also see this tribe losing the most challenges, of the three tribes. Anyway, here's Baci in terms of usefulness to me:

Shawna > Kourtney > Colby > Cochran > Candice > Pete > Boston Rob > Alexis > Elyse

Poseidon



I also have mixed feelings for Poseidon, which shouldn't be a shock seeing as 1/3 of the game exists on each tribe. I certainly want Kim to take control over here, and I think she will. I am a bit worried about her arrogance though, as it's already showing. She just assumes that she has Judd, and while she probably does, we just saw last round what Judd can do. He did it to Dylan, and he turned Ibe and Candice against him. I think despite that move, Kim still thinks of Judd as below her. I do not. Judd has earned more respect with that move, and I view him as a player that needs to be dealt with carefully in this game. But I need to let Kim do her thing and get her 5; I don't need her worrying too much about Judd. She's paranoid enough as is. Anyway, I think she'll have Ted and Judd, and Judd has Coach. Kim also has good relations with Mary and Chase. Carter's in with Mary. So maybe Sandra and Eliza will be on the bottom? Hopefully Eliza would stay. I still want to work with her. I don't know for sure, but I'm not too worried about Kim over here. Also, I expect for this tribe to be Gwad's main competitor for immunity. As for the usefulness:

Kim > Ted > Chase > Judd > Eliza > Mary > Carter > Sandra > Coach

Tres En Gwad



I am kind of worried about this tribe in terms of immunity challenges. I don't know if we're as strong as Poseidon and I'd hate to start losing this early. I am going to give it my all for immunity, and hope it's enough though. I would hate to lose, but I think I'll be okay if we do. Right now, there is an alliance of six in the making. This alliance includes Sydney, Vecepia, Sean, Wanda, Miki and myself. It's good for me! I know Wanda wants me out, but I'll have to deal with her for now. I can make moves against her later, I think. I would hate to vote out Alex and Rob C, so we'll see what happens with Wanda if we go to TC too many times. You may be in for some surprises



I love miki to death, but Sydney has been my rock in the game thus far. I don't even know if I would still be here without her amazing tribe picking abilities and overall loyalty. I really think we're going to help each other go far into the game, and I can't imagine writing her name down right now. Love her!



Love Mikayla too, though. I trust her entirely because she's a part of the... parallelogram? IDK that's four-sided, right? Anyway, she's a cool gal and I think she'll be a great asset to this tribe. I'm very excited to continue working with her.



Sean has really impressed me in this game. I didn't think I would like him, nor find him so trustworthy. However, he has more than exceeded my expectations with both of those things. I am really excited to work with Sean in this game and cannot wait to see what he has to offer strategically. I think he will be instrumental in taking out Wanda when I want to.



I really like Vecepia! We get along well now and we're excited to work together. She trusts KP a whole hell of a lot, which is really important. I think she will be useful going forward as well, if only I could get rid of her friends, Wanda and Alexis.



I feel so bad that he's not in the alliance, but literally no one wanted him there. If he can bring it in challenges like I know he can, then he will be safe. If not, then he may go before his time. I hope that doesn't happen, if it's just him and the alliance of six, I would probably make a move on Wanda. We'll see what happens though.



Oh Rob, I really like him! I've enjoyed getting to know him better and I think he's a fun person. However, it's going to be hard to save him on this tribe. He's not very social nor very good at challenges, so I think he may be booted early. Hopefully, though, I can keep him around for a bit. I want to win with this tribe. I do no want to vote these people out.



It was hard to not put you last. I know you're coming for me, and I'm going to get you first. Not sure when, but I know for a fact that you will not be the reason I don't win this game. It's not happening.



Not sure why he's all the way down here, but he's made a lot of deals .Wheeling and dealing is never a good thing in Survivor and I think this tribe has caught on quick. I expect him to leave if we go to tribal, which would not be a bad thing. It's hard to trust him after he turned on Dylan.

So right now my tribe is currently preparing for this challenge. It was my idea to set everything up before hand, so each group could just copy and paste. I think it would be really awesome to lead my tribe to victory! Beyond being secured a spot in the final 25, I would really like to earn that idol clue for myself. I don't want to have to mooch again.

Speaking of the idol clue, I feel like my list is strong and I'm going to be able to guess soon. I don't want to guess though, because then everyone will know! I really don't know what to do about that conundrum, but is it good to be afraid of having the idol? I could lie and say I didn't get it, but I think people would figure that out quickly. I just don't know what the best move is. There are a lot of smart people in this game though, so maybe someone will figure it out before me.

More than winning immunity itself, I want to send the other tribes to tribal council. I want to see how the new tribe breaks down and who they decide to take out. All that information is good stuff and I want to know it ASAP!

Also, on Dylan. I'm not really mad he's gone. Yeah, Dylan's a great friend of mine, but I have been having my doubts about the pentagon as is. I feel like at this rate, not even the four remaining members of it will make the merge. Who knows? Plus, I heard from Dylan that he really had no intention of playing with us anyway. So this was probably good for me. I needed someone to take Dylan away from me, before I shot myself in the foot trying to save him. So in conclusion, I feel bad for Dylan because I know he loves this series, his Brandon character and was excited for this game; however, I am seeing many positives from this blindside, and plan to use each one to my advantage.

Fuck my tribe. Like actually fuck them. Wanda's not here, so we're going to have a group with 2 people and lose because of that. We only have 91 posts prepared, so IDK why the fuck a group of 3 is going. They're going to get through that when we could have had more done. I'm pretty sure that Sydney just didn't want to be in the group of 2, because she was the one pushing for a group of 3 to go tonight. It makes no sense. The 2 should go tonight, because we can have more posts prepared for tomorrow for the groups of 3. And then we're going to fucking keep Wanda because she's in the alliance. Fuck everything right now.
Fuck.

[DD]

Well you can all just ignore that last post.

We won! It feels great to be in the final 25. Every round is a new battle, and I can't assume I'll survive anything in this game. Therefore, when I'm handed immunity I need to appreciate it and remember that it's worth fighting for every round of this game. I really worked hard in this challenge, as evidenced by all of my code preparing, and it obviously paid off. Our tribe won, and I really think I was a large contributor to this win. I can't say that really, but hopefully my tribe realizes it.

If we do lose, Ibe will go. He's the only person that can be cut from this tribe that won't impact someone else. If Alex left, it would impact Kim, and if Rob C left, it would impact Sean. Plus, I value my alliances with Rob C and Alex more than my, "I would like to work together conversation" with Ibe. So yeah, Ibe will go first if we lose.

If we lose with 8 left, it's time to make a move. Right now there is a majority alliance of six, but that will be ending in this particular round. I need Wanda out of this game if we go to tribal council twice. Wanda is going to turn on me eventually, and I have to strike first. I believe I would have the votes to pull off this move, probably only not getting the vote of Vecepia. Whatever. I will take Wanda out of this game, especially if Alexis is still around. I can't let those two get together and start targeting me. But Alexis will be on me like flies on dogshit if I take out Wanda. It's a risky move, but I think it will pay off. I can't risk losing Rob C or Alex over Wanda. Not at all.

Right now, overall, I still feel like I'm playing a good game. I think that I have a lot of alliances, but allies are going to leave. Chase will probably leave this round, and I have no idea what's going to happen on Baci. I just need to have numbers everywhere, so I'm safe no matter what. I can deal with the consequences breaking these bonds later, but for now I need to get myself further into the game. Winning immunity, however, is the most secure way to do that, and that's why I intend to give my all to every tribal challenge. I did it for this one, and will continue to do so until we merge. The less I have to show my hand and risk being voted out, the better.

Waiting on the idol clue for a new idol analysis!

[DD]

So annoyed that there is already a rope cutting challenge. My immediate thought was to miss it on purpose and just figure out what the reward was, who won it, and exploit all of that later. However, my gut is telling me that it's not a good idea to back away from rewards! I think I can win this one and following my gut has worked thus far. It's going to be really hard to win this and remain unscathed, but it may just be a risk I need to take. Even if I don't win, competing will probably be beneficial in the long run. So yeah, I'll be there.

Apparently Elyse is a target over on Baci. I'm praying that she goes, but Shawna is afraid to pull the trigger because she likes the target being there. Who knows what's going to happen? Ugh, stressful that Kourtney and Shawna are vulnerable. I wish they weren't.

1/34 now... and 1/33 if I take out what I hear Jason guessed. Need more clues!

Basic Baci update:

Kourtney, Shawna, Boston Rob and Colby are in the middle of two warring sides. One is Elyse and Candice, and the other is Alexis, Cochran and Pete. Kourtney wants to take out Elyse, and I think that Shawna will follow suit. Praying that not much else changes after Shawney commits to Alexis, Cochran and Pete.

ELYSE, LEAVE.

[DD]

Ugh.

New updates! Apparently Pete is leaving on Baci, and everyone but himself, Alexis and Cochran are voting for him. Then, on Poseidon, Coach is leaving. Well, it's either Coach or Kim. Kim thinks she has the votes of herself, Ted, Judd, Sandra and Eliza. I'm praying she's right. Kim cannot leave. Coach needs to go. Coach and Pete leaving tonight would be AWESOME. Hoping that happens.

Sidenote: I need to stop being so nosy. It's going to bite me in the ass eventually. I just want to know what's going on!
