Episode 15 (FINALE): “Honestly I’m Not Even Surprised” -Charlotte

Once again Charlotte had flipped on her Chaos Squad alliance, and once again they were a bit frustrated with what looked like confusing moves, because they didn’t know her ulterior motive. Still, though, they wanted to work with her. And their perception of her and frustration with her worked for her, because they didn’t want to vote her out and in fact thought they could beat her at the end. 

Jordan won immunity at final 5, leaving just Jack E immune. They tried convincing Charlotte to vote LA with them, believing her to be more threatening than Tyler. Of course, Charlotte wasn’t gonna do this, because LA and her were tight. Her flip didn’t matter (for the second time in a row), because Chaos Squad had an idol (for the second time in a row). Jack E played his idol, sending LA home with 2 votes, and with 3 votes for Jack E cancelled. 

It was the final four now, and the castaways were one tribal away from the end. Charlotte now finally revealed why she had stayed loyal to the majority alliance: her relationship with LA. In the final immunity challenge, Jordan won 2 out of the 3 sections, securing immunity for the fourth time in the game and spot in the final tribal council.

Even though Tyler wasn’t a threat, Jack E wanted to take Charlotte and Jordan to the end and stay loyal, despite Charlotte’s duplicity and both of their threatening statuses. However, Jordan believed Jack E was the threat to get rid of, because their games were too similar. He told Jack E about this upfront. Tyler wanted to get Charlotte out, believing her to be the biggest threat. Jack E tried working with Charlotte to get rid of Tyler in a 2-1-1 vote. However, Charlotte flipped (again ;D) and so did Tyler, sending Jack E home 3-1 as the final member of the jury. 

It was now final tribal council. Tyler tried arguing that his under the radar game was strong enough to win, but the jury didn’t buy it. The competition was between Jordan and Charlotte, both strong contenders and both who had some bitter contestants to the jury. Jordan argued that he had worked extremely hard to come from the bottom to the very end, forming new relationships, winning immunities, and using two idols correctly. Charlotte argued that she had made game-changing important moves In the end and had formed strong relationships as well to navigate herself to the final tribal councill In the end, Charlotte was crowned the winner of Survivor: Taveuni in a 5-2 vote!

Well kids, here we go.. back at it again. As much as I get frustrated and sometimes hate Jordan (mostly because he's good at this game, damn it ) - he and Jack could have voted me out last night and didn't. Maybe it's because they think that I'm a good number for them, maybe they just really hate Steffen, who knows. As much as I don't like seeing my name written down, it was kind of the perfect opportunity to allow LA to flip her vote to save me in the end because no one will know we're working together. Jordan, Jack, I just want to make sure this is very clear... if LA wasn't my F2,  it would have made a lot of sense to side with you guys in this game. I like Steffen, yes I do, so much, but at the end of the day - I never knew where we stood. Sometimes I had an idea, but you could never really be sure. At least with Jordan and Jack... eh, it's the devil you know. If I can win immunity this week, this is the prime time to get Jordan out. Otherwise, he's winning this game. I think he might be the only person - game wise - in the game right now that I can't beat.

imagine making the most complicated plan possible with so many variables. Imagine each one played out exactly how it was supposed to. That was last night. it was amazing

This Tribal should be pretty easy. LA, Charlotte and I should all be voting Jack and he should go home. I'm nervous though since no one has talked to me about it yet. I'm so mad Jordan won immunity. Of course he did. We just can't seem to get rid of him. I have nothing against him as a person, I think he's really nice. However, if he makes it to the end he will for sure win, and I think it's safe to say he would have my vote. I don't want to sit next to him at the end, that's for sure. 

Jordan beat me by one point. Honestly, I'm not even surprised. At this point, I'm pretty sure we're about to hand him the win... and I'd argue that he deserves it. As much as some of his previous game moves have annoyed me, he's busted his ass to stick around so... kudos to him. If he makes it to the finals and I don't, I'd give him the win. And if LA wasn't with me in this game, maybe it wouldn't be Jack going home tonight. But as is, that's where my vote needs to go tonight. Eh, I'm not thrilled about it, but it is what it is. It would be smarter for them to take Tyler to the end with them, not me. So... kill or be killed. { AGAIN }

WHy does charlotte keep making stupid game moves. She's not even messing up my game, like i know no matter waht she does im fine. I just sort of feel bad for her. Because its so obvious and like why are you being dumb

If I was smart, i would try and get char mo out cause she is killing it and the biggest threat after jordan. BUT i am steve rogers and she's my bucky barnes. 

Thank god my ass finally decided to search the Reef because the Reef Thief snatched an idol! I'm safe for this round after Jordan and I played the Sapphire idol correctly and we got Steffen out in a very crazy vote. This round, Charlotte, being a Knucklehead McSpazatron decides she's wants me out. REALLY? After everything that these lame ass players have done to you trying to get you voted out, after we SAVED you last round, you still want to crawl back to them? She is so spineless I cannot stand it. She needs to GROW UP, WAKE UP, SHUT UP and realize what's best for her game, which is not going with the people who have had her back even when she stupidly betrayed us at F7 when she had a GUARANTEED FINAL THREE SPOT. She's really becoming a goat, and I sure as hell do not mean GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Can't wait to whip my idol out and blindside LA who should've left a long time ago. Wonder why she's never talked to me :///////// Maybe she's nice but we've talked like once and she gets her lies exposed faster than you can spell exposed. Glad I exposed her back at Final whenever to Jordan because I found my place in this game. 

Kevin’s Note: “[Charlotte’s] really a goat” Hm

after LA is voted out 

Me @ this final immunity challenge: https://media.giphy.com/media/3ohzdNAHuWLGyFuBNK/200w.gif

Right now, I have two options. I can either vote Jack or Charlotte. Charlotte and I have been working together since practically the beginning and supposedly the two of us are gonna vote Jack, but I think it might be better for me to get her out. I don't think I can win against any of them if I'm being honest. I feel like I have a better chance of winning against Jack than Charlotte because Jack was with Jordan and I'm hoping some of the jurors are still bitter but I don't know what I'm gonna do. No one is responding to me

And there's always a chance that they could be playing me to try to GET Jack out, because it's a guaranteed jury vote for Jordan, but I see you, villain. I see you. If that is what you were trying to do, good for you, but honestly my game is better with Jack sitting on the jury because I don't necessarily think his gameplay earned him a spot in the finals.  #sorrynotsorry

Episode 14: “I Trust Nothing” -LA

Though Charlotte had flipped on Chaos Squad, Jordan and Jack E (the CHA and OS of the alliance) didn’t give up hope. Jordan still had his Rainbow Idol, and this was his last round to play it. And lucky for the two of them, the Rainbow Idol was a Sapphire Idol this round. 

Jordan and Jack E tried working on Charlotte by trying to bring her back to their alliance. Charlotte told them that she felt she was on the bottom of Chaos Squad. Jordan and Jack E tried telling her that she would be on the bottom of the other alliance, though, and that if she went with them she would be in the swing position next round and would be guaranteed Final 3 no matter what. What they didn’t know, though, was that Charlotte’s friendship with LA gave her more confidence in her position. 

The challenge this round was Chain Reaction. The majority alliance coordinated to ensure Tyler would have immunity. They were confident. They thought they had the numbers to comfortably split the vote, especially with Steffen’s extra vote. However, none of them knew about the Sapphire Idol. 

Jordan and Jack E pushed for Charlotte to vote for Steffen with them. However, they themselves were voting for each other. If Charlotte voted for Steffen, he would go home with just that one vote because of the Sapphire Idol; if not, they were confident that he would go home in the revote. 

During this time, the majority alliance wanted to prevent Jack E and Jordan from getting their hands on any advantage in the Rainbow Reef. They coordinated which paths they would go through to search for the idol using Steffen’s spreadsheet. It was too late, though. Not only did Jordan have the Rainbow Idol from before merge even started, but Jack E also had found the hidden immunity idol just this round. He told not a soul about this, though, not even Jordan. 

Jordan and Jack E’s plan worked; all the votes went towards them, which sent the castaways into a revote. The targets in the revote were Charlotte and Steffen. Steffen and Tyler both voted for Charlotte; they wanted to send LA home in a rocks tiebreaker. However, LA had planned to vote for Charlotte only to flip on Steffen, both to save herself as well as to once again obscure their relationship. This worked, and on the second revote, Steffen was sent home 3-1. 

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/logosrupaulsdragrace/images/c/cf/A58cf05d2.gif/revision/latest/zoom-crop/width/240/height/240?cb=20160228194610

So Tyler has immunity, and this is the last round Jordan can play his Rainbow Idol. He says that the power will let him save himself but not Jack, but can he be trusted at this point? Eh, that's debatable. He and Jack E want me to flip back with them and vote out one of our own this week... which would be Steffen or LA. If LA and I didn't have an F2, this would probably be a pretty good deal. They both think that I'm on the bottom of that alliance when really - I'm not in a terrible position. I mean, the odds could be against me, and someone else could flip over to them... but I have to hope that our alliance stays together at least until we take out Jordan and Jack. If we do a 3-2 split tonight (with Steffen's extra vote) and Jordan does save one of the two of them, that would mean that we could potentially have a tie and go to a re-vote... either sending Jack E home or one of us. Probably me, judging by the fact that I flipped on them last week and there's likely some bad blood. This should be an interesting vote. If Jordan survives, well, we've got to make sure he doesn't win immunity this next coming week or else we're going to have to start cannibalizing our alliance... and it puts him in a position of power. One that I don't necessarily want or need him to be in. 

the plan is for me and jack to vote each other and play the sapphire idol if charlotte is with us steffen or whoever goes home with 1 vote if not they canabalize on the revote you don’t think i would put my entire game on the line if charlotte flips back do you

This is all going too smoothly, I trust nothing.

I'm very happy to have one an immunity challenge. Even though, Steffen, LA, Charlotte and I were basically guaranteed a win because of the numbers, and the four of us randomized a list and we decided to give immunity to one single person, and that person ended up being me. Tonight, we know that Jordan has an idol, but we are not sure exactly what his idol does or who he will play it on. The plan is that we split the votes 3 votes on Jordan and 2 votes on Jack. Those are our best odds. The reason we have 5 votes among the four of us is because Steffen has an extra vote and he will be using it on Jordan. 

I still don't trust this round. Like nothing goes this well in survivor, its too easy. Char was worried Tyler might flip on us, but idk. WE WILL SEE TONIGHT. 

Dear Diary of eventual death, So thank god I got Charlotte to finally thinking cause she like HATES JORDO, which was my main goal I guess, I mean it kept me safe, and then Jack came clean to me after you know Lily blocked me, so its been slightly problematic but what can you do.  ANYHOE, we pray for a challenge we can make Jordan and Jack lose, and its like the Survivor Gods spoke and it was chain reaction, and me, Charlotte, Tyler and LA freaking coordinated, like we got in formation, and we took down Jordan in the first round and Jack in the 3rd, like y'all it was great, but now Tyler has immunity and Jordan in his general pissed off mood, and wants to target me out of pure spite despite what he says, so you know, party time, so I'm here crying cause Jordan and his magical rainbow idol is here to ruin my life probably, but I don't know what he's gonna do, but you know what I got, AN EXTRA VOTE, so I'm just gonna use that, and you know what, go me for holding onto that for the final round, like whoda thought I could do that.  Anyways, its planned to be 3-2-2, with 3 being on Jordan and 2 being on Jack and me, but hey what can I do.  WELL ITS THE LAST ROUND TO LOOK AT THE REEF, and I got 2 minutes before tribal to make that last search for the idol, but will I find it, I dunno, but the thing you need to know about me, if there is one thing to know about me in these games, if there's a chance I will squeeze everything out of my last moment in this game, but what can I do.  So it's time to nap diary, as I probably die, time to go to starbucks I guess. Waiting upon demise, Steffen

Kevin wants me to make a confessional but I literally ranted to him in my host chat. Does this mean I'm going home? I don't know.

Kevin’s Note: I forgot to add Jack’s “rant” to the confessionals during this round so...oops.

Episode 13: “Chaos Squad” -Lily

This is a fun one. 

So, at this point, Chaos Squad’s plan worked, so now they made an alliance chat. That made it official. They would all stick together, of course. 

Now, there were two distinct sides: Chaos Squad’s alliance, composed of Charlotte, Jack E, Jordan, and Lily; and then the other side, which was made up of Charlotte, LA, Steffen, and Tyler. Charlotte was in both of them, making her the swing vote. 

Jordan won immunity for the second time. After this, he revealed to his alliance that he had yet another idol, the Rainbow Idol. This gave Chaos Squad all the more power. Their target was Steffen once again. Chaos Squad was very confident in this vote because of the fact they had the majority and had a Rainbow Idol in their hands. They were so confident that they wanted to spell out Chaos Squad with all of their votes to make their presence known (and I just wanna say, thank you for doing this ;D). 

Initially, Charlotte didn’t trust Steffen, so she was eager to get him out. However, Charlotte became wary of the rest of Chaos Squad; to her eyes, they seemed much tighter, and she thought she was on the bottom of that alliance. She couldn’t get Jordan out, though. For awhile she (and the others) had been wary of Lily and her power in the game. Charlotte decided to flip back to her old allies, and together they blindsided Lily in a 4-3 vote, creating the amazingly beautiful, iconic CHAOS SQU vote. 

Hoo Boy Shitheads This Is Fucking Happening, a three page essay by me So, I had been slightly out of tune with the game for the first bit of merge, but I think now I've gained a full understanding of whom stands where'st'd've, and the signs are looking good. Here's the lay of the land, and the land of lay's potato chips (not sponsored). Okay, so there are two distinct alliances at this point. Me, Jordan, Jack, and Charlotte on one side, and then Steffen, Tyler, and LA on the other side. Steffen might think I still wanna work with him, but he also may know that I'm against him. Steffen's entire side /thinks/ they have Jack with them, which is going to be a huge help for this next vote, since that means Steffen won't need to risk his extra vote. Even if he does, we'll win on the re-vote. The main problem here is LA of course, though, because that's who must have the Rainbow Idol. None of the people in our alliance have the idol, Steffen was the one who originally let me know it was taken, LA seemed to have all the stamps a while ago, and Tyler is... Tyler. So that rules out everyone but LA. It'll just leave us in a scramble if LA ends up using the rainbow idol or being voted out, seeing who can reach their host chat first and slide into that merchant's DMs. And I'll be waiting. Watching. Winning. Weedsmoking-- I mean what

Kevin’s note: Lily only just beginning to gain confidence at this point of all points is hilarious

Another night, another tribal council. I'm starting to hate half the people on this tribe, if I'm being honest. If they're not shady, they're just stupid - and I'm not sure what's worse. (Not everyone - I love some of you. But  l o r d e  ) First of all, I'm just going to say - I'm sorry to anyone I offend with my salty ass confessionals, but if ya'll had just listened to me three votes ago we wouldn't even be here. Steffen. Welcome to your tape. I wanted to work with you. I did, trust and believe, but not once, not twice, but three times you were so shady that it became impossible to trust you. Half the things I said to you ended up getting back to other people, and trying to get anything out of you was like drawing blood from a stone... and for someone I was supposed to be in an alliance with, bruh, you didn't tell me jack shit. That's why I don't trust you. That's why I'm voting you out tonight. Not because Jordan has me in his pocket. Not because 'talking to charlotte is talking straight to jordan'. I'm voting for you because I don't trust you. I don't trust you to keep me safe, I don't trust you to get me further in the game, and I don't trust you not to take anything I say and repeat it to other people. Do I like you as a person? Yes. Would I have rather worked with you than Jordan fucking Pines? Also yes. But here we are. My point still stands... if we'd just voted out Jordan that week he wasn't safe and I brought it up. SMH. but ya'll didn't think it was time to do it, maybe this game wouldn't have ended the way that it did. I could side with the 'Heroes' of the game and try to get out Jack E, or Lily, and see how far that gets me... but when you flip on a 'villain', they're going to come at you with everything they've got and be out for blood. It's not in my best interest to flip on them right now.. best case scenario, Jordan and or Lily realize they have a better chance winning against  me than each other, since they've both played awesome games, and I can slither my way to the end without too much blood on my hands. Sorry, ya'll. Villains gotta vil. 

Why did I put myself in the middle of Steffen and Jordan? Because I'm an idiot that's why. If no big move happens this tribal, I'll be the next one gone because Tyler is just a goat at this point and people will wanna drag him along. Steffen doesn't think Lily will turn on Jordan and Char probably won't turn on Lily and Jordan will get his pick of ftc 'cause of all that. I really need to win the next immunity challenge if I survive this tribal.

later...

Note to self: Don't try and plan with Char Mo at 2 am again.  This might not be a mess anymore. 

Okay, so, remember that salty confessional about Steffen? Depending on how conversations go this afternoon, he might get to live. It's all about making sure we're all on the same page. It's all about the devil you know, vs the devil you have no control or sway over. If we can blindside Lily on this vote... that would be a game changing move.

Kevin’s Note: This was sent not even two hours after she ranted about Steffen, I love it

Okay you know what I said in my last confessional??? Yeah forget all of that apparently Jordan has the rainbow idol so we're 100% good on this, only thing to worry about is regular advantages from Steffen LA and Tyler (soon to just be LA and tyler >:3) Sorry for being so quiet btw, I kinda died about a month ago so I haven't been able to talk

The plan tonight is to get Lily out. Since we can't get Jordan out, we plan to get out his closest ally, Lily. Charlotte came to Steffen and I saying that the other side of Jordan, Lily, and Jack think that she is working with them, but she isn't. She said they were targeting Steffen. If this goes as planned, we rope LA in and then we get Lily out and the four of us will be the majority and we can pick them off. 

Dear Abandoned Diary, So as we know the plan to get jordo to flush his chaos idol worked so you know, that's a party, but SOMEHOW THE PLAN FOUND ITS WAY BEACK TO GOOD OLD PINSO. So now I'm sitting here, down an ally and wanting to die, so LA and I go to the shelter crying about how much we don't trust Jordan and this whole mess.  I'm feeling down and out since it seems Charlotte went all the way over to Jordan and Jordan's immune, A RECIPE FOR GOOD!!! I have no idea what to do, so I call LA and we plan to talk to Tyler and Charlotte separately, so I'm here talking to Charlotte seeing what I can do to save my ass, even saying we didn't need to go after Lily cause they were close, even tho it was clear Lily was closer to Jordan, she wasn't answering so I went to make out with my date, then I grab my phone after an hour or so, and Charlotte says "she's been thinking" SHES BEEN THINKING YALL ITS A BLOODY MIRACLE Turns out she wants to mount a blindside on Lily, because of the reasons that have been laid out to her, AND I FINALLY FIND OUT WHO'S BEEN THAT RATTY HOBISKIT, turns out it was Jack E who leaked the plans and everything to Jordan......god damn it, I thought TS MEANT SOMETHING, either way I'm here with this news of not being able to trust Jack with anything anymore, but now I know I can trust LA. So we devise a plan to vote out Lily, but make it seem I'm voting out Jack or Charlotte.  ATM Charlotte and I are placing a lot of trust in each other, so we're here hoping for the best, or I'm just hoping I'm not getting played tonight and Jordan's rainbow idol (yes he has the rainbow idol) doesn't get played to save Lily, cause that'd be a problem.  Anyways I could leave tonight with an extra vote in my pocket, but that thing ain't gonna come in handy tonight, if anything, I need EVERYONE to do what they say they're gonna do, so if all is done correctly, it should be 4-3, if not well it's been real y'all. Sitting here having an emotional breakdown in a Starbucks, Steffen

I should probably feel bad about turning on my alliance, but since I've flipped back and forth like twelve times... well, you do what you gotta do to survive. Basically I need to do whatever I need to do in order to get myself as far in this game as possible. Sorry, Chaos Squad. If I turned on Steffen and Tyler so quickly, you probably should have expected that I'd do the same to you guys. Lily and Jordan have played together before and they're a strong duo. Suggesting trying to take her out was in my best interest with Jordan safe. If the votes fall on me tonight and I actually go home, hey, I commend them for getting the best of me. 

either i'm going home tonight or i make it to the final 6. i love making very bland confessionals xoxoxo

The most difficult think about this round is making our votes aesthetically pleasing. Its the only challenge we have

Episode 12: “I Hope You Took Notes” -Jack E

The Chaos Idol had shaken the game quite a bit, and it left a mark. After LA’s flip failed, and it was obvious that she wasn’t loyal to Jordan, she left the alliance chat. Jordan had lost his closest ally, but he had gained another one, also named Jack, and with that along with two idols still in his arsenal, he could hopefully make a rebound. 

Along with that, there was some confusion about tribal, still. Neither the cast nor the hosts of the season were used to the votes being so split, or split at all, so they were trying to figure out who voted for who. Steffen was trying to figure out who voted out Jack C, and since Steven’s vote was revealed, he figured out that the second vote was either LA or Jack E. He confronted Jack E, and Jack E gave Steffen a Photoshopped screenshot of his vote for Jack E. Steffen believed this, for awhile, at least, and his trust in LA wavered now that he though LA had tried voting for Steffen. But anyway!

Steffen won immunity this round. That meant Jordan and co. couldn’t target him. Jordan formed an alliance with Charlotte, Jack E, and Lily, and they dubbed themselves “Chaos Squad.” How far this alliance would go together...well, for now, at least, they were buddies. 

Jordan was definitely going to use the Chaos Idol, and the Chaos Squad would all vote for each other to keep themselves immune, leaving LA, Tyler, and Steven vulnerable. However, this meant Charlotte’s closest, most trustworthy ally, LA, could be in danger of going home. But if she stuck her neck out for LA and voted for her, that could possibly expose their secret alliance. So Charlotte and LA came up with a plan where Charlotte would vote for LA while LA would vote for Lily in Charlotte’s place so things didn’t look too fishy to Chaos Squad. Because, after all, why would Charlotte ever want to flip on Chaos Squad? 

Jordan’s plan worked, and all of Chaos Squad plus LA was immune, and Steven and Tyler went to rocks. With only one vote against him, Steven was rocked out of the game, and Waitavala was officially out of the game as well. 

Aftermath of tribal:  https://68.media.tumblr.com/85b424b5cbb13a3e354e1e89b8c4470a/tumblr_oiqno07G8b1u41fxbo1_250.gif 

I have no idea what is happening tonight. It seems like no one does. That probably means they are lying to me, or they actually don't know. I don't trust them though.

So.  What. If. I. Voted. Out. My. Best. Friend?   : ) !!!!!!!!  

The fact that my vote say Jack - Don;t fuck with me, and ive never made a decent confessional should be very confusing to the hosts

Okay, I know that last tribal was when the chaos idol thing was supposed to go down, but I think it's happening for real this time? I told Steffen the vote was Jack E, and from the quotes Jordan is sending me, it all seems to be going well. No wonder he was voted most gullible. Anyway, now we have a better focus group (Me, Jack, Jordo, Charlotte), and I think we should be good to protect ourselves and get the opposing alliance whittled down just a bit. Let's just hope nobody fucks this up.

Why Steffen gotta be shady? 

Dear Diary of hell, So explain to me how I somehow ascended to winning immunity for the first time in half a year, like it was even touchy subjects, like explain to me how I have a good read on the tribe, and I'm a hero? Who the hell knows where that came from, ooh yeah I used an idol correctly??? WHEN DOES THIS HAPPEN, I don't get it. But the annoying bit is that Jack E or LA is lying to me because.....ugh. Anyways I'm here for another round, so thats a plus, annoyingly.  But I still have to deal with the next round and jordan still has his chaos idol.....I hate it, so now there's no way to avoid it and we gotta just deal with the situation, but on the plus IM IMMUNE SO LETS DEAL WITH THAT, but right now I have to deal hope things go for the best and hopefully this plan to take out jordan works, if not, hopefully he should be down an idol.....BUT THINGS NEVER GO RIGHT SO SCREW LIFE. I hate it, things don't go right and life sucks Sincerely annoyed, Steffen

Time to fail at Masterminding! This round I successfully covered up the fact that I voted for Steffen by photoshopping the host chat (yall saw what i did lol) and I think I fooled him for the most part because he apologized to me for doubting me and he is still giving me info, info that Jordan and I specifically planted in order to turn this round in our favor. Jordan and I are working close with Charlotte and Lily and we are going to use Thank you for listening to me on call and i hope you took notes (ily sam)

Episode 11: “Whatever Happens Tonight...This Will End in Chaos”

So far in the remote island of Taveuni, things were looking fine. Unanimous votes were all that the eye could see. It seemed like nothing much could go wrong, but, in the words of Selena Gomez, everything is not as it seems. 

Well, first off, there was the fun auction. People won some pretty neat things; Jack E won some delicious spoiled milk, LA and Charlotte both won an advantage in the next challenge, Steven got a self-vote revealer, and Lily bought a wonderfully useless stick. A bunch of people bid on the mysterious statue because they thought it would be some advantage in the game (it wasn’t). Jack C won, and he told the tribe that it was useless, but they all thought he was lying (he wasn’t). 

The most important thing won in the auction, though, was the super fun Chaos Idol (TM)! Jordan was the lucky winner of this ugly idol, and so now he had not one but TWO special idols. And it...would have quite the effect on the course of the game.

The immunity challenge was Robot Unicorn Attack, which LA won. And she would be thankful she won immunity that round, because hoo boy. 

Jordan tells his Motomaiqi alliance about the Chaos Idol, saying that he plans to use it. LA spills the beans, though. Soon, Charlotte, Steffen, and a bunch of others try to coordinate the vote so that they all are immune. Their goal was to make a sort-of-but-not-really-blindside and rock out Lily. And then...there was Jack E. 

Jack was bored, so he decided to go on call and ally with whoever got on call with him first in the tribe chat. And that lucky winner was the other Jack! So Jack E started spilling minimal information to Jack C to try to get his trust only for Jack C to just flat out tell him about Jordan’s two idols. That’s some stunning gameplay right there, folks. 

Sometime after this, Steffen still trusts Jack E a lot, so he lets Jack E in on the plan to work around Jordan’s Chaos Idol. Jack E, though, is bored and likes to have fun, so he tells Jordan about this, everything from LA flipping and all that, and he suggests blindsiding Steffen. Jordan and Jack C agree to this, and the former decides to retract his Chaos Idol...for now.

Unfortunately, though, both plans failed that night. When Steffen saw Jordan did NOT play his Chaos Idol, he decided to play it safe and play his idol on himself. Unlike another person who played their idol, Steffen played his idol correctly, and Jack C was blindsided in a 2-1-1-1 vote, with 4 votes for Steffen cancelled. 

whew there was no secret plot to murder my ass, nice

I believe the soul fact Jack C exists in this game is to annoy me to no end and face the fact he's gonna outlast me because his social game is so fucking bad and he's up Jordo's ass

[5/11/17, 6:24:38 PM] Jack (Ginga): Life works in mysterious ways steffen [5/11/17, 6:24:46 PM] Jack (Ginga): Sometimes all it takes is a stick and a statur I dont care that I hate Jack C, that better be the title

Jack C. really thinks he's fooling everyone saying that statue does nothing. How dumb do you think I am to believe your word without any receipts especially after you popped an idol out of nowhere without telling anybody last time, why would you be honest and upfront about something this time. HM?

[5/11/17, 9:41:32 PM] Steffen Bøhn: ok so this didn’t strike me until last night but Im more than certain this is a thing now [5/11/17, 9:46:20 PM] Steffen Bøhn: but I believe that Jordan and Lily are working together, and they each have 2 trios set up, one for each of them, Jordan has Jack C and LA, and Lily has Charlotte and Tyler, this was kinda proven to me when last night Charlotte and Tyler and LA confirmed that the plan to get out Jack C wasn’t actually the plan and the whole plan all along was set up by Jordan to take out either me or Billy.  LA and I spoke and she basically confirmed this theory, along with the fact that Lily and Jordan are closely working together because I told Lily I found the extra vote, and that I had all the stamps, and low and behold Jordan suddenly knows how I have both, and apparently Jordan told his trio too because LA told me she knew.  So in the end inside those trios, Lily has Charlotte and Jordan has Jack C, if my math is correct.

Okay, so I just finished a call with Steffen and I feel like we have a solid relationship now. I was upfront with him before the vote, after Jack let slip the real plan so I told him everything basically. I told him how Lily shared everything with Jordan, basically everything he told me to build trust I was like yeah, Jordan already told me cause Lily told him. I don't think he was happy about that but now we know we can't trust Lily 100% she's working with Jordan. Now my problem is Steffen doesn't trust Charlotte either, he thinks she is Lily's second, like Jack C is Jordan's and I don't wanna be like nah, I have Char cause that will mean telling him we're friends and suddenly huge target on us.  We talked a little about the upcoming vote, whether we need to make a vote and get Lily or Jordan out or for Jack. (thank god he didn't say Char) If the vote is aimed at the other Jack or Steven, we're sort of fucked too because we need them to vote with us when we do go to make a move. It should be pretty clear that Jordan and Lily are sort of running things so hopefully we can use that to flip people.  Steffen thinks he can pull in Tyler so if we can then we should be able to do something? But Tyler also leaked the plan to Jordan so that's worrying, PEOPLE NEED TO STOP TELLING THE REAL PLAN, LIE PEOPLE, LIEEE. WE NEED TO BE A BUNCH OF LYING LIARS WHO LIE. But Char also thinks she has Tyler which isn't bad but in this case I need Tyler to trust Steffen more so he doesn't tell Lily cause once Lily knows, Jordan knows. I didn't think I would have to deal with such an important move so fast but if we don't cut someone from Jordan and Lily they have numbers through most of the game and while I could just go along with it, I'd rather play my own game not follow someone else's.  My last game, the biggest problem was not having people I really trusted and it's hard to play when you don't have some form of trust with people. I feel like I can trust Steffen and Char, although if Char turns on me I wouldn't be too shocked cause we' are Slytherins and we do what we gotta but I hope she doesn't cause we still need each other right now and doing that would put her at risk of becoming just a number and she's better than that, plus she wants Jordan gone so that helps. Also Steffen and I are pretty sure Jordan won the secret advantage so I have to hope he tells me what it is so I know what to expect. We also think either Jordan or Lily have the rainbow idol. I thought Steffen had it but now I'm not sure, he probably would have admitted it during the call.  so much to figure out.

later...

Well, this challenge was terrible. And not terrible in a 'socks with sandals kind of way' but terrible in a 'i want to rip my ears off and throw them in bleach' kind of way. Whoever decided that games don't need volume control is the worst human ever. OF COURSE I didn't find the mute button until 10PM... life is cruel. Thank god I'll be 25 next month. This is the halfway point of my life. We're almost there kids. Let me just take you through my life today. 9:15AM: Wow, this is going to be fine. I used to play this all the time in middle school, it's going to be great. 9:17AM: I love this song!! 9:26AM: Um okay that score could have been better... but it's fine, I'll get better. 9:45AM: Fuck. 10:15AM: Fuck me. 11:30AM: I hate this game. I hate this song. I hate the hosts. 12:00PM: I will pray for death. Please murder me. 1:15PM: Ha ha ha ha ha ha. 1:30PM: Ooh Harry Styles put out a new album. 6:00PM: FUCK I stopped playing. 9:00PM: k let's do this. I can do this, this is fine. 10:15PM: I can't do this. Gotta find that GIF. 10:45PM: Can't find the GIF. Forgot to submit, fuck. 10:53PM: Submitting mothafucker. 11:05PM: Found the GIF. Too little too late. Honestly I'm just glad that Jordan didn't win. This might be our opportunity to get him the fuck out of here. Honestly, I want him gone... mostly because I don't like that he cheats his way through challenges but we call it loopholes because he was 'smart' enough to outsmart or outlogic the hosts / life. Okay, I only hate him because I didn't think of it first. Otherwise, he's okay. Whatever. I'm just salty. Let me live.

I think it's SO CUTE how Steffen and I were not on good terms, and he finally "makes up" with me, telling me how he's glad we're friends again, and we're talking all the time and all this happy bullshit and he was gonna work with me, and keep me in this game, and not only was he fully aware I was leaving, he helped and voted me out. Steffen is a snake, always has been, always will be. I've never met someone who is more self centered, more conceited and more socially inept than him. He doesn't understand the concept of friendship and never will, and I'm gonna laugh when he loses this game too. Sorry I tried being your friend AGAIN and you proved to me that you're just terrible. I hope you get voted out with your idol in your pocket you dumbass. 

Long story short: We're faking the chaos idol and voting out steffen

"Better to be safe than sent home." Episode title. Ya'll are welcome. So today, the plan was to vote Jack C. Or at least, that's what I heard before all hell broke loose. Turns out, Jordan has the Chaos Idol (thanks, Lily) and he plans on using it tonight.. which means that everyone who has a vote cast AGAINST them is safe. So much for sending Jordan home tonight. A girl can dream. But now we're going to throw votes around like darts on a board and hope that they all land EXCEPT for Lily. Which should work. Hopefully. I really want to work with Steffen and Tyler. I think I can trust them and hopefully Lily comes through on her part of this 'plan' and votes to keep me safe. She has no idea that Tyler's sticking his vote on Steffen and not her. Surprise bitch, the rock is all yours. If this backfires, we might have to deal with Hurricane Lily.. but I'm optimistic. I think we've got this one. 

i cant believe jordan got a chaos idol,,, this is about to be the craziest tribal so far, and probably ever, because the rest will end up unanimous just like the first 11 have been

First of all, thank fuck I won immunity this round cause shit is about to get crazy. This afternoon Jordan decides he's going to use his chaos idol, apparently that is what the special secret advantage was so that was fun to deal with. After Jordan, Jack and I sorted out what 'we were doing', I had to update Char about everything tell her the plan and then Steffen. I told Steffen I was gonna vote for him to keep him safe but after more planning happened, without me, Tyler is voting Steffen instead and I'm still putting my vote on Jack C. Which is good cause it'll look like I stayed solid and if Jordan doesn't use the idol then Jack C should have the most votes and go home, unless Jordan and Lily had another plan and put their votes on Steffen while we all spread and in that case he'll be gone, but that's just me being hella paranoid. If everything goes as the four of us plan, Lily will be the only person without a vote and should be going home. But this whole idol is a fucking mess so we will see. I hate that I'm not voting for Char or Steffen, cause if someone doesn't stick to  the plan then they could be in trouble and I need them to stay. #stressed

originally there was a big plan of using the chaos idol and a decent amount of people knew about it but steffen and steven were out of the loop right, anyways me la and jack are in an alliance since day 1, but me and jack c are getting closer to other jack for a while. anyways la spills are the beans to steffen and tries to flip on us. steffen not know jack is close to me and jack c and tells jack, jack tells all this to me and jack c. anyways now were not playing the chaos idol and the three of us without telling anyone are voting steffen, everyone else is planning for a chaos idol

Dear Chaotic Diary, Ok so I have little to no idea whats going on anymore because I could be getting played to high heaven and I would not be the wiser tbh.  ANYHOE, I'm here bidding one that screwed up statue because HEY EVERYONE IS GOING FOR THAT ADVANTAGE, oh wait, no, Jack C is gonna steal my statue and keep it for himself and rub my face in it, PARTY.  So now I'm here pissed cause it seems Jordan got the special advantage, BUT GUESS WHAT, ITS A CHAOS IDOL, designed as it's name implies, to cause chaos.  So basically it'll make anyone who is voted for immune and cause them to go to an immediate rock draw between the people and it turns out, oh good ole Jordo is trying to save Jackie poo C again....while passing it off like I'm none the wiser, but oh does he know what's been in my ear.  So I've been recently been getting closer to LA and she is honestly my rock rn after losing Billy, but we were game talking and at this point I have nothing to lose.  But I basically laid out the dynamic of the season of Jordan and Lily running 2 trios, but it seems factions in their trios have been woke or something, cause here I have Charlotte coming to me saying "I think Lily poisoned me and Tyler against you" YA THINK, anyways now we hear from Charlotte and LA that Jordan has the aforementioned chaos idol.  So now Charlotte turned on Lily, and LA turned on Jordan, which is honestly what I needed and a plan was devised.  SO according to Charlotte and LA Jordan is saving Jack E, Jack C is saving Jordan, Jack E is saving Jack C, and LA is saving Jack C, possibly with Steven voting Jack C, but now we sit here with Lily's trio, and this is where my alliance with Charlotte and Tyler comes into play.  So Lily thinks that trio is saving itself, but now we have other plans.  So Lily will save Charlotte, Charlotte will save Tyler, and instead of Tyler saving Lily, Tyler will save me, and that leaves Lily without a vote to save her, meaning she would leave immediately.  However if no chaos idol is played I think that Jack C will go home since LA and Jack E are voting for him, but I don't care at this point, if a chaos idol isn't played tonight, I'm sorry but I'm going to need to bust out my hidden immunity idol cause this ain't gonna screw me out tonight.....at least I hope, technically we should be fine but I don't want to chance Jordan and Lily doing something like voting me instead and just using the chaos idol to screw with people's minds because let's face it, thats a very sadistic and Jordan Pines thing to do.  So I'm sitting here and praying to everything I can think of just to hope this plan will work, because if it does, oh holy nights, if not.....well things are gonna get a whole lot more interesting, so lets have fun. Scared and confused, Steffen

If you had asked me 72 hours ago if I was going to be the mastermind of a crazy move, I would say you were crazy. Here we are, 72 hours later and if what I have set up works out how I planned it, then I will be one powerful person in this game. It all started when Steffen, completely trusting me, spilled the beans about each and every single thing happening in this game, or more specifically, his hypothetical situations. I listened, and originally I did have a reason to keep this to myself, but after reading everything that he was saying, it made Steffen seem like more of a power player than I had originally perceived. I thought he was on the bottom, but considering all of the information he has heard from various sources, it makes me nervous to really think how much information he gets. This scares me, and although I trust him, him having an extra vote, combined with his complete rainbow pass, makes him a dangerous player that I need out of this game. His paranoia, which is what was holding him back from being a really dangerous player has disappeared, and that is why he is a threat to me now. Last night, I called Jack C., because Steffen said Jack C. and Jordan were close, and I originally thought that Jordan and I were formidable allies. I spilled only a little bit of what Steffen had told me before he unleashed a huge bomb in this game: Jordan has the Rainbow Idol. Huh, wonder why Jordan never told me this information? Guess he really is closer to LA and Jack C. than myself. This is where my second dose of information came in handy, where I let him know that LA was really not completely loyal to them. Jack then unleashed another bomb: Jordan found a Chaos Idol. This makes whoever receives votes at tribal council immune and everybody else goes to rocks. This is so powerful and it makes everything that everyone else is doing make sense. Jack C told me that everyone had a plan to vote for each other in order to keep everyone safe when Jordan plays the idol. However, everyone found out about this plan and now no one is really gonna be in danger. This is when I decided to make my move. I told Jack C., what if we don't play the idol, because everyone thinks he will, and you, Jordan and I will vote out Steffen, getting rid of his extra vote without needing to flush it and making everyone scared as well as hang onto it for next round. Wow, I'm so powerful. Now I had to inform Jordan of all of this information and I really thought that this would lead to him leaking his rainbow idol and his Chaos Idol to me. He didn't. Luckily, Steffen told me about the Chaos Idol and everyone's plans to work around it already so I had more of a reason to tell Jordan these plans, and it worked perfectly. We brought in Jack C. and the three of us have formed a formidable trio. Triple J 4.0. Nice. All I know is that we're voting for Steffen and hopefully everyone is sticking to the mindset that Jordan is playing this Chaos Idol and are voting for each other, not knowing they are sealing their fates. I'm honestly not so sure how well this is going to work for me in the future, but I know for sure that I am sick of sitting around letting people tell me what to do. It's my time to shine and it's my time to be a huge game changer. Whatever happens tonight, at least we one thing for sure. This will end in chaos. 

I don't know how I'm still here. My strategy is what I like to call the pearl strategy. I'm hoping to just sleep my way to the end.

Episode 10: “I Mean, Whatever, I’m Having Fun Lying” -Jack E

It’s merge! It’s jury time! Lots of fun things are happening now. For one, Lily is finally going to tribal! And she was loud and proud about that fact. 

Once again, Charlotte and LA reunited, and this time they solidified their duo-ness and solidified their alliance to be an F2 alliance. Their intent was to play different sides while secretly working together. 

Another alliance formed: an original Motomaiqi alliance, minus Billy. Jordan was kind of the head of this alliance. LA, though, wasn’t keen on staying loyal. She was playing with the two heads of the opposing alliances: Steffen and Jordan. She was doing her best to make Steffen trust her. And though she was officially aligned with Jordan, she wanted to flip on him ASAP for being a threat.

That would have to wait, because Jordan won the first individual immunity. Things didn’t look too bright, because so far the name floating around was Jack C’s, his closest ally. After talking to Lily, who suggested either Jack or Billy, Jordan pushed for the latter. Jack C was paranoid, leaked the plan to vote for Billy, and was scared of how close the vote might be (not very) and was wondering if he would need to use the idol (he didn’t).

Steffen at first had some confidence in the game. He thought he had a few people on his side: he had an alliance with Tyler and Charlotte, and he felt he could trust people such as Lily, Billy, Jack E. Things started collapsing. Lily told Jordan that Steffen had all 7 stamps by now in the Rainbow Reef, making Steffen suspicious of their relationship (Jordan also told Steffen that he only had 2 stamps, which...was true in, like, the first round of the game). And once the plan to Billy was leaked, he lost all hope. He deleted his spreadsheet for navigating the Rainbow Reef. However, he did find an idol! Perhaps there was some hope... 

Ultimately, though, Steffen decided to let Billy go and not play his idol. It appears third time was the charm, and Billy was sent home 9-1, with his 1 vote for Jack C cancelled by his idol, because it appeared to Jack C that he wouldn’t be needing his idol anytime in the near future, apparently.

Dear Bumbleshocked Diary, WELL HOLY BUTTGILLIAN, THAT WORKED. I don't know it almost felt like this thing and plan went off without a hitch, which I'm kinda obsessed with but also kinda worried about, but I'm pumped about a couple of things so I'm excited.  OKOKOK so firstable, I'm just floored I got the plan to work, like Billy had his death sentence because it felt that we couldn't get anywhere on Bouma and he was dead, BUT NOOOOOOO, apparently I got better skills than I could have ever thought and I got Charlotte and Tyler to flip on Shea, and boy, lemme tell you, that kinda makes up for how Shea treated Gage in Midway at the tribal that Gage went home in.  The ironic thing was, Gage was the last pre-juror, and guess what happened to Shea, he made f11, but no jury....BAHAHAHHAHAHAHA ok sorry that was mean.  ANYHOE, so I'm sitting here, with my 3 advantages in my pocket, no votes cast against me and guess what......WE MADE MERGE AND JURY, so now there's that little bit of breathe before things likely go to hell but still, I'm excited, my worst placement is out of the way and I can sit in f10 knowing I at least made jury.....but I want to win so everyone else can cheauxke. Now I'll do some thoughts on the tribe atm so I can at least see if it can help me decide what to do. Billy-Bae but has admitted to being my extra vote Charlotte-Was in a trio with me and Lily, and later in a trio with Tyler and I have unloaded some game thoughts onto her so I do believe we have something good Jack C.-Ok so I actually haven't been on the same tribe as him pre-merge but he sent me this conversation as our first: [5/8/17, 10:18:39 PM] Jack (Ginga): Helo sir [5/8/17, 10:18:47 PM] Steffen Bøhn: Why am I a sir lol [5/8/17, 10:19:17 PM] Jack (Ginga): Would you rather be a madam [5/8/17, 10:24:30 PM] Steffen Bøhn: I mean whatever floats your goat tbh [5/8/17, 10:25:12 PM] Jack (Ginga): Speakig of floating id love to float to not first merge boot [5/8/17, 10:25:14 PM] Jack (Ginga): Thanks [5/8/17, 10:28:51 PM] Steffen Bøhn: kinda same lol This conversation has made me love Jack C. so much because I think he's so oblivious to the term "social" game, but it also makes me want him out real bad because he thinks he can get away with this... Jack E.-He bae, I voted for him in all stars so that makes me worry about whom may target us because of that but if he truly just played for jury, hopefully he can be my other Billy Jordan Pines-We had a mixed relationship in the past but I want to believe that we fixed it........who knows, but he told me he only had 2 stamps, which is worrisome, but he knew I had all 7, so thanks Lily, but once he did find out, I told him once you swap em out you can't go back to the reef so hopefully that's something good enough.  But I'd rather he be gone sooner than later LA-She's basically a queen I finished hosting in Solomon and I wanted to meet up with her for the longest time so this is really exciting, so now I just got to hope she wants to work with me. Lily-She was my number one early one, but she may have told Jordo that I have 7 stamps and thats worrying so now I got to be careful for how much I tell her.....mess, the kush was too much tbh Steffen-Binch Steven-THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE....jk, he seems nice but I haven't been able to test his loyalties because we never went to tribal together so I don't know where he stands with me which is worrying Tyler-I feel like I was more scared of him for no reason but I may have him in my pocket now since I let him in that Nic was trying to blindside him and Shea was throwing a vote on him.........not the best socially from what I learned which is hilarious, but I like him, he a bae and can stay So I guess after this the people I'm most scared of is kinda Jack C., Steven and Jordan with Lily sprinkled in there because of her telling Jordo, but what else can you do right now, I guess it'll come down to who wins immunity, but who knows, if there was an edgic this season, my past 2 episodes would've been dope tbh considering what I did, but I guess we may just need to breathe rn. Anyways wish me luck Diary, Steffen the bum

I am very happy that I made the merge. Both other times I played I never ended up making the merge, so this is very exciting for me. I have no idea what is going to happen tonight. Hopefully it's not me going home. I really don't know though. 

Ain't this a bitch. Votes appear to be going on me and Billy, with them SUPPOSEDLY leaning 6-4 in my favor, but I don't know for sure. I'm gonna play my idol on myself probably, DEFINITELY if Billy gets idoled, but I just dunno, man. This sucks, yo.

So now that we've merged, LA and I have a final 2. We actually know each other IRL, so... yeah, that helps. It was weird not talking to each other while we were on separate tribes but hey, we both made it. Also fuck Jordan, cheating at the challenges is BS - I don't care that it's a loophole, there are no loopholes in the real game of Survivor. C'mon, man. Jeff Probst does not approve this message. 

This is a confessional. Try and medivac me motherfuckers

Dear screwed up Diary I don't really care anymore people are pegging me as a duo with Billy, and here I thought I'd be able to hold onto an extra vote in Billy for longer but apparently thats not a good thing now people think I have a rainbow idol even though thats not the case because I tried swapping the rainbow pass for the rainbow idol but nothing, so I'm thinking Lily or Jordan has it because well Lily has all the stamps but Jordan could've gotten it too, so that's real grand. SO I deleted the spread sheet with the instructions on where the stamps were, now I personally dont care about what happens I'm going to vote out Billy because I saved his ass twice and now he's on jury, so if I survive 6 more tribals then we might be in business but that all depends on tonight. I'm not going to use any advantage and if I'm voted out with an idol in my pocket it'll be hilarious, but as of now I'm going to vote out my closest ally and make sure that I can re-evaluate where I am in the game, because I'm sure as hell on the bottom rn, but if things hold up tonight, LA and Tyler are true hunts, but I guess we'll have to see if shit hits the fan. So in the end Diary, it's been real, will I be first juror or make single digits, who knows, but one thing thats for certain is that the stamps are cute AF. Fed up with the world, Steffen

https://youtu.be/wMEMDBtndw4

I feel like I'm being too honest with Steffen right now, but I wanna work with him and if I blindside him or lie while he knows the truth, he's not gonna trust me and I need that. Char seems to be on the bottom of the alliance she has with him so I need to be good with him and hope he doesn't flip on me. I also don't want people figuring out Char and I are working together, I want Steffen to think he's my solid person, and get rid of Jordan ASAP because he's just going to keep "winning" challenges and he's already in a position of control, sort of, but that's fine with me cause as long as he looks like controlling things he's a bigger target than me. Plus once Jordan is gone Jack might become a solid number for me, since we've been working together but he also slipped the plan so who knows, he might need to go too. We'll see how this plans out tonight, Steffen knows the plan so if he or Billy have a hidden immunity idol they can save him and I should still be good with him and I can blame Jack for him finding out so I should still be good with Jordan too. I'm putting a lot of trust in Steffen this round,  hopefully it doesn't fuck me over.

I'm totally fucked if Steffen plays his idol on Billy but I mean whatever I'm having fun lying to Steffen and he really thinks he can trust me or he's just leading me to believe that. I might just throw a vote because it will be funny to see everyone's reactions. Idk y'all heard me on my call last night I'm in a cracked out position

Episode 9: “Queen of Not Dying” -Lily

Back on Motomaiqi, Jack E was now the only original Ravi Levu left in the game, so he obviously needed some new allies, and it seemed like he was doing the job. He quickly aligned with Jordan by stroking his ego, and he hoped this alliance would be mutually beneficial. Nothing else happened on Motomaiqi, though, because they won immunity once again, sending Bouma to tribal for the second time in a row.

Likewise, for the second time in a row, Billy was targeted at tribal. Once again, the pair of Charlotte and Tyler wanted to get Billy out. Once again, though, Steffen managed to turn the tables and save his ally. Shea thought that since everyone was voting Billy, that it would be best to throw a vote at Tyler in case of an idol. 

Steffen used this information to turn Tyler against Billy. Tyler agreed to this, paranoid. Charlotte also agreed to this, although she was a little wary of Billy and Steffen’s relationship, but decided this move was better; all she could do was hope it didn’t bite her butt in the future. The move worked, and Shea was sent home 4-1. 

Hi confessional it's been awhile. While I'd like to say I've been some sort of mastermind in this game, I really can't say that. I made it through the Bouma tribe without having to go to tribal council or really participate in much. One this new Momo tribe I have found myself in a solid-ish spot. I'm really not playing to make alliances or be cutthroat, at least not until I'm having some fun. I have Lily and some other dude on tribe from old Bouma and Jordan Pines came up to talk to me and I basically told him I would be his slave because I know Jordan Pines and I know he likes to play big, so being there for him as a number will be a benefit to him as it is to me. I won immunity again so hopefully we merge and I do not flop as much as I hope I won't.

If everything goes according to plan, Billy will be voted out tonight. The original Bouma tribe plans on sticking together. Plus if the merge is coming up we are going to need the numbers. We're the only original tribe to still have all of it's members. 

when shea looks like he may throw a hinky vote at tyler or charlotte and I might be in luck

holy shit???? it just occurred to me that. i outlasted half of the people in this game. without going to a single tribal. so i'm queen of not dying now, which is nice well, that's 1/3 covered. i havent needed to outwit yet, and i guess challenges count as outplaying, but that also requires a good social game and such in my tribe. 

If I thought last week's vote was hard, this one is worse. I have a nagging suspicion that Steffen might be working with Billy and that's why he wants us to take out Shea. I just don't want this to come back and bite me in the ass. Then again, we need Billy if we don't merge and want to stay strong... Shea hasn't been as strong in the challenges. Ugh. #Stressed #WhyMe 

Dear Confused Diary, So I'm not sure you realize what I did last tribal, but I got Nic out?!? that's a thing, tbh that kinda made up for Sweden, but I kinda feel guilty, I mean I know I can't trust him fully just because our past relationship was so rocky, but like I feel we finally made a decent bond, like he's a good kid....God I'm an awful person true. Anyways fast forward to now, Bouma lost another luck competition...thanks Kevin and Mitch. Anyhoe, now everyone thinks to stay Bouma strong, however I need Billy because despite having an extra vote from the reef, Billy is pretty much my constant extra vote, so like tbh what's more valuable??? And honestly I dont trust Shea whatsoever, so I'd rather see him go over Billy, but Billy being the only non-Bouma made things difficult.  Low and behold Shea comes to me today and says he's gonna throw a hinky vote at either Tyler or Charlotte, which is twisted, like if you're Bouma strong, don't put that doubt out there, that's just dumb.  So I got my ammo from Shea, and at the same time I knew that this vote could potentially come down to Charlotte, so I got Billy to build a closeness to her, so when I dropped this info on her, she'd be more willing to flip on Shea.  So I kinda reel her in, but then she wants to tell Tyler, and tbh I'm a little scared too because Tyler seemed gung hoe on getting Billy out, so what do I do, drop the entire receipt of Shea telling me about the hinky vote, so Tyler surprisingly bent to that will.  Now it seems we're voting Shea out which is what I want, but I'm still nervous because this seemed too easy.  If I go home tonight, tbh I had a lot of fun, I organized a blindside that went off without a hitch, I found things again and now its like a party, but I'm not about to say I'm controlling everything cause I could actually be played tonight, but I just gotta hope for the best. If I survive tonight I would have truly surprised myself, if not, game well played y'all. Sincerely, Steffen in tears

Steffen comes to me and is like "so Shea thinks you have an idol" and I'm like girl I'm basically dying of malnourishment over here. I haven't even been to the Rainbow Reef so Shea needs to get his panties untwisted. So I'm talking to Charlotte and Steffen tells me that the vote should be for Shea and I shouldn't be getting any votes. And because I'm in love with Steffen I trust him. So we'll see how tonight goes. Should be fun :)

Episode 8: “Crying in the Library Toilet” -Steffen

Whew. This episode. 

So, to start things, we did in fact NOT merge much to everyone’s disappointment, and instead they all swapped into 2 tribes of 6. Ravi Levu dissolved due to failing at challenges, Survivor, and life. This left the two dominant tribes alive: Bouma with Billy, Charlotte, Nic, Shea, Steffen, and Tyler; and Motomaiqi with Jack C, Jack E, Jordan, LA, Lily, and Steven. 

On the Motomaiqi tribe, nothing really notable happened, although Jack C and Jordan were reunited at last! 

Nic felt kinda isolated on Bouma, and he was right. There was a original Bouma alliance formed between Charlotte, Tyler, and Steffen. Steffen was tight with Billy, so that left Shea and Nic on the outs. Once they lost the immunity challenge, things were...messy. 

Steffen wanted Nic out. Nic was willing to throw Shea under the bus to save himself. Shea wanted Billy out. The plan to get Billy out almost actually worked. Charlotte and Tyler both initially voted for Billy, suspicious of his relationship with Steffen. But then Steffen did Steffen things and flipped it on Nic. This worked because Nic did not want Billy out, he wanted Tyler out. Steffen used this information to turn Tyler on Nic and Charlotte as well. 

In the end, Nic was voted out in a 4-1-1 vote, him voting Tyler and Shea voting for Billy. 

Y'all fucked me up with this one UASBFUIASBFUBSF I can't help but laugh.gif This fucking tribe.. asufnasuif I have Shea.. but I'm suddenly regretting voting out Gavin cause idk what Shea will do. Idk Tyler, I'm openly against Billy in IHOS WHICH STEFFEN KNOWS............ And then there's the hamlet person idk if that's LA or Charlotte. I'm gonna guess Charlotte. I feel like Hali right now. I'm fucked and I know it.. like these people are gonna vote me out even though I pose no threat or have any allies. But that's fun! later...

I wanna make merge in this game SO I started talking to people I first off cleared the air with Steffen. I told him I didn't want this to be awkward and that I wanted to work with him. He seemed to accept it so... hopefully if we lose I'm not on the chopping block. Charlotte seems super nice. I tried talking with Tyler but that didn't last long. Billy is cool but I still want him out of IHOS. If we lose and I gotta throw Shea under the bus for me to survive.. I sure will

I saw the leaked post. Nothing gets past me. I think we deserve some kind of compensation. I was emotionally traumatized. I just opened up tumblr minding my own business and all of the sudden I see the immunity results and we lost. I did not get any sort of notification or heads-up. Nothing. I am shook. 

We lost OFFICIALLY. I like some of these people and at this point I just gotta try and charm them with my social game. The thing is...... no ones talked game with me yet. Is it cause they havent been to tribal? Or because they have an alliance? Hmmmmm I just don't wanna go home and it looks like I need to throw Shea under the bus by emphasizing that he and Jordan are a duo perhaps

Whelp. It's been a while since I've made one of these. I have a feeling it could be me tonight. Especially since Steffen isn't even answering. So I guess we'll see. I'm trying to talk to people. But I can only do so much. You know?

Dear screwed up diary So I'm sitting here on the crapper writing a confessional, and this whole thing is high key a damn mess. So first we swap and I'm already pissed enough that I have to deal with shea and nic now, but it turns out that I got my bouma fam charlotte back and I still got billy so I'm excited So as I sit here and we have the prophet Tyler tell us our fate of our loss, I'm heading to my first tribal in this game, which has me worried enough cause nic and I don't have a good past, but then somehow the impossible happened and we made up. Who the help saw that coming!!! But then I have shea over here saying nic and Jordan ran Ravi and then nic says shea and Jordan ran it, so in a confused state I rounded together Tyler and Charlotte to figure out da help was going on here on this day, the day of my cats quincinera. So the vibe seemed to be either nic or billy and I'm going to do everything I can to make sure he goes, but then shea dropped a bomb saying nic hated me, which I know isn't a bomb, just a slap in the face. Nic says that this is outdated but it got me from trusting nic to wanting him dead more. Because if he wanted me dead before, he can again. So nic tried getting me to vote out Tyler with him so hopefully that got char and Tyler on our side for the vote with me and billy so thank god that might be a thing. But now as I sit here playing extra vote hand grenade with billiam, I'm mentally preparing myself to either get voted out with an extra vote and a rainbow idol in my pocket, so that's fun.  I don't know, it's a mess but I'm just gonna have to roll with it and hope it works Crying in the library toilet, Steffen  

This is probably the most complicated vote we've had yet. I really hope it works out.

Episode 7: “I Don’t Consent” -Gavin

Both Motomaiqi and Ravi Levu walked out of tribal unscathed. There was something else happening on the Bouma tribe, though; while searching the Rainbow Reef, Steffen found an extra vote! How useful this extra vote would turn out...well, that’s a problem for later. 

The challenge this time was the fun Scavenger Hunt! This time, Motomaiqi was the tribe that was doing #that. Well, mostly. Tyler only could find a $5 dollar bill. Some of his tribemates were a little disappointed, but that didn’t matter, because Motomaiqi came first and won immunity! Bouma came second, which sent Ravi Levu to tribal council for the fourth time. 

Now, the obvious boot would be Shea, because the other three players--Nic, Jordan, and Gavin--thought it might be better to keep Shea over Gavin. Shea could be an easy boot if they swapped, but if they merged, they also though Shea would be a more loyal vote. In the end, they decided to blindside-but-not-actually blindside Gavin in a 3-1 vote, sending Ravi Levu once again down to 3 members. 

We lost!!! Nothing new. I had an alliance with Jordan/Gavin, so it seems as if it'd be obvious to get rid of Shea However... Jordan and I were talking.. and maybe its better for us to keep Shea over Gavin. For me, it's what is best for me in a merge situation. I feel like, even if we swap again, I can convince people to vote out Shea over me. Also, I know Shea is a definite vote against the ugly majority in this game. I guess we shall see huh? Also fuck these ugly Rainbow Reef puzzles

I'm so glad we won. Our tribe really pulled it into high gear and came out with a win... even if Tyler didn't help us. At all. 

6/7 stamps. Yeet. And if this special event after tribal tonight is what I think it is... *HOLY SHIT I GOT TO MERGE WITHOUT TRIBALING ONCE*

I don't consent

You know.. I MAY be the person who has been on a tribe that has won 0 rewards and only 3 immunities but.. I WILL be the person who is the spokesperson for struggle in this game. I may be coming into the merge at a huge motherfucking ass disadvantage considering I DONT have the numbers and have a small group of people who probably want me out... but I'm not gonna let that affect me. Once merge hits.. just know I'm going all out. This is America. Land of the underdogs. Not to come for Hali Ford's gig here but isn't that what America is all about? People who had nothing turning into people who have the whole world in their hands. That's what I'm gonna be doing in this game. Yes I should be studying for my final. But I am making this confessional to show that I DO NOT give up. I don't care what I gotta say or do or win.. but I will do that. I'll be extra if I have to. I'll lay low if I have to. I'll cause drama if I have to. Anyone who wants to come for me can choke and I'm gonna make sure I personally cause their downfalls. Bookmark THAT. Happy Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage month. http://68.media.tumblr.com/2bff203d073207126ae5232125e6118a/tumblr_inline_on8uthsTh21sezgcg_250.gif http://68.media.tumblr.com/740ac8473bc9de2104f31f1e197901d3/tumblr_on8u1ja8uV1r2jopqo3_r1_250.gif

Episode 6: “Uwu Her Way Out The Door” -Shea

Finally, finally the swap arrived! A schoolyard pick, with LA, Nic, and Steffen as team captains for their original tribes. This tribe swap shook up the game somewhat and also got people to submit confessionals. Waitavala was also dissolved due to flopping. 

On new Bouma, Steffen gave Jack E access to the Rainbow Reef almost as soon as he met him. Steffen also formed an alliance with Billy, Lily, and himself (which never went to tribal together, either). They did search for stuff in the Rainbow Reef, though. Steffen was somewhat aligned with Jack E, which left Steven on the outs. 

On new Motomaiqi, Charlotte and LA met up for the first time in the game. LA, the captain of the tribe, was glad Jordan was gone, because she felt like she was on the bottom of the old Motomaiqi with him and Jack C as a duo. Tribewise though, it was 2 Motomaiqi with Jack C and LA, and 2 Bouma with Charlotte and Tyler, and 1 Waitavala in the middle with William. This might make William the swing vote, but we’ll see...  

On the new Ravi Levu, Nic quickly aligned with Jordan, gaining access to the Prism Reef from him. Nic continued his agenda of getting out the people with connections, except he was trying to get out Jordan’s people which was...yeah. Shea felt concerned because nobody from the undefeated original Bouma was with them on their tribe, hoping for merge to come soon. 

Anyway, the challenge this round was the Word Game, aka Lily slaughtering everyone in her path. It was a little scary. It was also a double tribal, which meant two people were going to tribal council. Lily carried her new Bouma tribe to victory, sending the new Ravi Levu and Motomaiqi tribes to tribal council. 

On the new Ravi Levu tribe, Nic and Jordan pulled in Gavin to form the Demon Hunters alliance which targeted Roxy and Shea. Jordan pushed for Roxy, Nic pushed for Shea, and ultimately Jordan got his way with Roxy going home 4-1. 

On Motomaiqi, everyone decided to vote out William for being a weak player and for not really being connected to anyone on this tribe. Jack C was a little paranoid, thinking about playing his idol, but he managed to control his paranoia and not play his idol. If only he managed to do that in the future as well... William was sent home unanimously as planned 4-1.

Endurance immunity challenge! I like to call this 'how long can we all stay awake so we don't end up dragging our asses to tribal council.' I haven't been yet, and I don't wanna for as long as I can.

Right so we had the swap and I got to be team captain which was exciting. *puts on captain america shirt* (lowkey wanted to be on tribe with steffen) I think the new tribe is pretty good, we have some strong players so we should be okay. Honestly I feel more comfortable without Jordan because I felt at the bottom, I'm pretty sure he would have kept Billy and Jack over me but now I don't have to worry about that and I have a chance to get closer to Jack  and hopefully keep him as an ally moving forward. This double tribal is stressful though, cause Lily is slaying in this challenge but  hopefully we can pull through.

The swap was rough for me. I was probably the weakest member of the strongest tribe being Bouma, and I ended up on a tribe alone with nobody else from OG Bouma. We're getting our asses handed to us hard in this challenge and it's a little difficult to swallow. I'm pretty much going to tribal no matter what since I don't feel like we can pull this out. I think I have a decent chance of surviving this tribal, and hopefully merge is next. If push comes to shove, I'd be willing to vote out any one of these people, I'm not attached to any of them. 

OKAY WOW! I'm doing REALLY good with this challenge, I seem to be socializing quite a bit (by my standards), and everyone seems to be on good terms with me. It looks like we'll be evading double tribal, but it looks like if we do end up vulnerable at some point, I'll have the trust of a lot of people here. I feel like the planets are slowly aligning for me to end up winning this game, if I'm being honest! I don't wanna jinx it, of course... But still. I score high in challenges, which might put a target on my back at merge when I'm left non-immune, but... Jordan likes me, Steffen likes me, Billy likes me, Charlotte likes me, LA likes me, and it looks like Jack and Steven like me too. So, uh... F5 TR6 C7 is on the horizon for me. ;)

Dear Heartbroken Diary, Well seems that while my actual life is garbage, this game isn't going the worst? I dunno, but I promised Kevin to write a confessional, so HERE I AM.  So since last time, I formed that small alliance on my old Bouma tribe with Lily and Charolette, and gurl it wasn't just lit, it was about to burn the island down.  So we figured out the Rainbow Reef, and we pretty much mapped out the entire thing, like we got it, we know where the stamps are to get the Rainbow Idol, like thats a plus, oh ALSO, GUESS WHO NOW HAS A RAINBOW IDOL!!!! not me, but like, I can get it whenever I want, however there's a catch.  So I got my prism pass all pretty like right (shoutout to Mitch), I got all the stamps, but turns out if I swap it, then I can never EVER head back to the Rainbow Reef, which is insanely problematic.  So while I could get the rainbow idol, why would I do that now, I mean sure I could have it, but extra votes and shite could still be waiting over there.  My plan for the time being is just to make sure I can keep my lines open so I know that if Im going home, I can get that rainbow idol.  Otherwise rn, me and Lily and probably Billy are gonna use our Bouma Bussy map to find what advantages we can, which will be difficult since those clues are vague as heckle.  Anyways the next big thing is the swap.  FINALLY, though its weird cause when I wanted a swap, it couldn't come soon enough, but now, when I dont necessarily want a swap, it happens.....YAY LIFE.  So here's the dealio, Liana leaves and I get assigned as the tribe captain of Bouma, LA for Moto, and Nic for Ravi, and we go in order picking what tribemates we want, WHICH MEANS I DONT HAVE TO BE ON A TRIBE WITH NIC THANK THE LORD, tbh with any luck he'll leave soon enough.  So heading into this I needed to make sure I could easily gain majority on the new Bouma tribe, thus I picked Billy, I got Billy to pick Lily, thus my majority was formed since we know each other.  The next thing was to pick someone who wouldn't vote for me if we were in the minority, so I got Lily to pick Jack E. my bae from all stars, so if all goes well I should be ok???? Who knows, he says he just wants to make jury, but hey if that helps me get further, yay me.  So that leaves Steven, who I don't really know, but he seems sweet as heckle, so main goal is if we don't go to tribal until merge, cozy on up to him, if not, I'd rather him go next.  I can't get too comfortable in this game, even if I have access to an idol, an alliance and hopefully winning this challenge, but who the heck knows at this point, right now the goal is to win so I don't need to be in jeopardy.  Also I'm calling it rn, we're gonna merge next round cause apparently now 13 person merges are peoples kinks.  But I was also hella wrong over the swaps before so I say don't trust a word that comes out of my mouth.  SO LETS HAVE FUN With spite, Steffen

We swapped and I am finally away from people I was with from the beginning of the game. Steffen is on my new tribe, which is kind of disappointing, but I am going to have to deal with it. I decided that for this tribe, I'm just going to be a social butterfly, maybe the comic relief of some sort. I have started calls in the tribe chat just to rant and hopefully get a few people interested in working with me. I am not going to try very hard in the challenges, like I have been before, because I think it's more fun to live your life in this game on the edge, and tribal council is just the tip of the iceberg. My tribe is most likely going to win immunity, but it's a double tribal so I am kind of disappointed that we're winning, but just think about it, we're gonna have a numbers advantage and I like everyone here! I think I can use my skills to get myself to the merge and finally become a complete mess. Thank goodness I am likeable!

Fuck. I'm pretty worried, because the way I see it, me and LA vote together, and Charlotte and Tyler do. While I think the smartest move is to vote out the weak link William, it'd be very easy for the ex-boumese to just snag his vote and get me or LA out. I'd prefer to not waste my idol, but i also don't wanna die with it in my hands. This situation's all different dimensions of fucked.

Here's hoping that tomorrow's tribal is an easy one. I think we're all on the same page with voting William. He's the one person I haven't really talked to since we swapped tribes. Also lily, I love you girl, but I wanted to murder you a little during this challenge. Holy fuck, you're a beast. I miss Bouma guys. Wah.

So that challenge was a shitshow. Like how did Lily even do that? After a certain point we shouldn't have even bothered but whatever. So the plan is for Charolette, LA, and I and possibly Jack to all vote William. I'm putting my trust in Charolette. I hope she is right when she says LA will vote with us. I don't know I just don't want to get voted out yet.

I'm really worried about this vote. I was good friends with everyone else in Waitavala, and now that nobody is still with me in Motomaiqi, I don't think I'll last very long. 

I'm sorry Tyler, but you're my vote. 

Going to tribal sucks, and not a surprise, my name has been brought up by a few people. I'm lucky I'm on a tribe with Jordan, someone who has a lot of trust in me and will go out of his way to protect me, which he has. I didn't do much in the challenge and I'm the only person here from Bouma, I'd be an easy vote, but I am very skilled in the art of making sure I'm not the one going home, and I'm gonna make sure I do that tonight by shoving Roxy so far under the bus that it just runs her right over. I know I have Jordan's vote, he isn't gonna betray me as it just isn't an option for him right now. All I need is to get either Nic or Gavin, both very easy to manipulate. Strong guys with big egos is who I like to surround myself with, and you all have left me with many of those. All I need to do now is for Roxy to uwu her way out the door and hopefully merge will be next.

Voted William. I see this vote going 1 of 2 ways, either its 4-1 against William or 3-2 against me/LA. Guess we'll see.

Lily's back must hurt, cause SHE CARRIED THAT FUCKING TEAM, damn. (sorry kids, I swear sometimes) So Moto is going to tribal, I'm not too stressed about this one? The plan is to vote out William and I hope everyone will stick to it. Jack was worried but I'm working with Charlotte and she said Tyler was down to vote out William too so unless the boys teamed up, we're golden. 

We lost.. no surprise.. fuck everyone on Bouma. Fuck them. So Gavin/Jordan and I form an alliance. Jordan wants Roxy gone cause Roxy hates him lol. Roxy knows Jordan/Shea are a duo and wants one of them gone. She originally brings up Jordan's name, but I switch it to Shea because Jordan's my ally and I love making subtle moves. I'm literally the most subtle person on this island. I want Shea gone because I think we could do better with Roxy for reasons I'm too lazy to type out. But Jordan gets his way and I gotta vote out Roxy even though I don't wanna. Oh well. My edit must suck uugggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhh maybe I'll do something chaotic to stand out like tell Roxy she's getting votes. Too bad she's not online.

Also like Roxy/Jack/I made a deal to stick together. Voting out Roxy ostracizes Jack E. Jack C is also good with Roxy so goodbye to our chances of working with him and making a majority alliance at merge!!!!! Anyway Roxy's on. Do I tell her the news or what. Also fuck the Rainbow Reef. It makes me homophobic

the biggest nut in this game is me doing absolutely nothing but calling the tribe chat to rant about things and STILL going to be immune because they’re winning for me I haven’t talked to anyone but stiffen I’m literally gonna die vdofjgbgh but at least I'm selfaware!

you know whats hilarious nic is going after my friend group in the game, people like andrew steffen and billy and lily or whatever and like thats fine by me but nic is telling me as if I’m not apart of that friend group or whatever like okay give me info now ill choose my side later

Episode 5: “Woe Is Us Being the Most Inactive Tribe Ever” -Liana

Ravi Levu was now down to 3, and since there were 16 people left many were hoping for a swap. They hoped wrong, though. There was another challenge left: Geoguessr!

Some were excited for Geoguessr. Liana in particular was excited, saying that was great at the game. This was fine, until, well, Liana forgot to submit for the challenge. And thus, once again, Waitavala went to tribal council...and Liana was in hot water. 

There was a chance for her, though. Steven and Gavin were the swing votes between William and Liana. Liana offered a deal to Steven: she had a lot of connections with other people in the game, and she would use them to benefit both of them if they kept her in the game and voted out William. This could also be seen as threatening, though. Unfortunately, this was not convincing enough for Steven, and he voted out Liana 2-1-1, with Gavin self-voting.

Episode 4: “It’s Not As Bad As That Fucking Rabbit Game That Made Me Wanna Cry” -Charlotte

Though Waitavala was, like the others, unanimous last tribal council, there was still some unease. Gavin was paranoid about Steven: whether Steven trusted Liana or Gavin more. This trust would be tested...soon.

Meanwhile, on Bouma, something joyous happened: the formation of the first official alliance chat! This alliance was made up of Charlotte, Lily, and Steffen. It was called Bouma Bussies. Steffen was a little bit annoyed by Shea and wanted them out. Unfortunately, this alliance never went to tribal together, but they promised to work together at merge when they were reunited. And though they all did make merge...well, we’ll get to that when we get to that.  This alliance did work together to search through the Rainbow Reef, even coordinating together a spreadsheet, which was a little bit extra but I guess it worked. Unfortunately there wasn’t much left for them to find in the Rainbow Reef because of the Jack & Jordan duo, but anyway... 

This round’s challenge was Common Factor, which...occurred. Once again, Bouma and Motomaiqi made up the top half of the challenge. Waitavala and Ravi Levu were in the bottom, but this time Ravi Levu lost, and would go to tribal once again. 

Nic was upset about having to lose another tribe member. He hoped that next round would be a tribe swap so they wouldn’t have to lose another tribe member. Unfortunately, that did not happen. Jack E was a little more...coldhearted about voting someone out. He had wanted to vote out Rhea for awhile. Rhea in fact asked to be voted out due to personal matters, and so she was voted out 3-1.

#confessionals #shevotedouthermom

[survivortaveuni]

Episode 3: “No Offense to Poland, But Their Words Have Too Many Letters” -Steven

The aftermath after voting out robbed legend Andrew was...okay. The tribe seemed somewhat more unified. Nic in particular was keen on voting with Ravi Levu in the future. On the opposite side of the spectrum was Jack E, aka Nic’s closest ally, who was already hoping to get another tribe member out: Rhea. I guess Jack E was right because Ravi Levu got annihilated so quickly that working with them wasn’t even an option...yikes. 

The reward/immunity challenge this round was a “fun” one: Duolingo! The contestants got the wonderful, largely unappreciated and widely disliked opportunity to learn Polish! Yay! Bouma scored first place, which is not surprising, and so did Motomaiqi. As was custom, Ravi Levu and Waitavala made up the bottom half, and Waitavala lost the challenge, sending itself to tribal council. 

Things were happening on Motomaiqi, though; in fact, that tribe was maybe even more eventful. Jordan found all stamps and got the Rainbow Idol, and at the same time, his ally Jack C found a Hidden Immunity Idol in the Orange Reef. This gave the duo a lot, LOT of power (if they both used their idols correctly, but that...did not happen.) 

Anyway, back to Waitavala. William, sweet innocent William, told Gavin that he was willing to fall on his sword, because someone had to be voted out. Gavin, however, didn’t like this: he saw William as his potential goat and wanted to keep him around. Initially William went around targeting Liana, which caused her to be a little bit paranoid. Steven and Gavin, though, who were by now a tight pair in the tribe, turned the tables on Dan, an outcast in the tribe. William switched his voted, and the whole tribe sent Dan home 4-1.

Episode 2: “If You're Reading This, I See Y'all” -Nic

On Motomaiqi, Jack C confessed his worries to Jordan. He was afraid, after Kage ‘exposed’ him, that he was a villain. Jack C didn’t want to be a villain. But Jordan, as Jordan does, told his little mentee that villains have more fun. 

However, Jack C’s worries were for naught: Motomaiqi turned its luck around and came first in the challenge! Bouma came second, Waitavala came third, and Ravi Levu came last for the second time, sending them to tribal council. 

On Ravi Levi, Nic’s main concern was other players’ connections outside of the game with players on other tribes. That was what he was worried about at tribal council, and he wasn’t scared to be vocal about it, even ranting about it at tribal council and using an iconic gif of Game Changer Hali Ford. Tribal council also solidified the bond between Jack E and Nic (although Jack E was still far more coldhearted about it than his ally was). 

So, the tables turned on Andrew. It wasn’t about him, though, it was about everyone else. Andrew was deemed as the person with the most outside connections, and, thus, the most dangerous. Andrew tried to change things up, but nobody would even talk to him, and so he was setn home 4-1.

Episode 1: “I’m a Diva with Unreasonable Requests” -Jordan

The game begins! There were four different tribes at the start, and so naturally they all...had their differences. 

To start, Waitavala was very...quiet. There’s not really another to describe them because, um, their presence was not very noticeable. At least, they were quiet in their tribe chat, but that didn’t mean things weren’t happening. There was the thought of an alliance forming between Steven, Gavin, and Liana. As to how far that alliance would actually go...um, we’ll see about that later on. 

The other tribes were much more active. Ravi Levu was pretty much the opposite of Waitavala, much more talkative in their tribe chats. Here the alliance of Nic and Jack E formed. It was...sort of an alliance. Nic trusted Jack E, while Jack E saw Nic as more of just a number, or a puppet who would do his dirty work. Nic was concerned about people’s connections with players from different tribes in the game, and spilled everything he knew about others’ relationships to Jack E. 

Motomaiqi was somewhat active. It saw some more solid bonds forming, most notably another duo of Jordan and Jack C, who would stick together forever (or as long as they were on the same tribe). Jack C found the Prism Pass (in fact, he was the first to do so). He shared this information with Jordan. The two would soon work together to get through the Rainbow Reef and eventually they would find the Rainbow Idol. 

Just like Ravi Levu, Bouma was pretty talkative with some big personalities. No alliances had really been formed yet on this tribe. Lily knew Steffen but was a little wary of him, but she hoped they could work together. Nothing was solid on Bouma yet, though. Overall, things in the game were relatively pretty quiet, though. There were no big alliances, just small duos and some thoughts in the air of possible alliances, but nothing official. 

The reward challenge--Snake--was won by Waitavla and Motomaiqi. This reward--another clue to the Prism Pass--was needed because pretty much no one else had found the Prism Pass. The new clue helped Gavin, LA, and Steven find it, although they didn’t find anything in the Rainbow Reef. This was one of the few challenges Bouma didn’t one. Ravi Levu came last in this challenge, which would...happen a lot. 

Somehow, though, their luck turned. Ravi Levu came first in the flag making challenge, thanks to Roxy! Unfortunately, Motomaiqi had the reverse luck, going from first to last in immunity, sending them to the first tribal council. 

Kage had some...big, wild plans for the game. For starters, he wanted to make an American alliance and Canadian alliance. He was starstruck by Jordan Pines, but he also wanted to get him out. Obviously, this did not happen, because Jordan got second place instead of last. Kage decided to lay back for awhile, not try anything too shady yet, and go with the flow--and he thought that meant voting out Billy. This, however, was not the truth. Everyone wanted Kage out due to his inactivity as well his strike in the very first challenge, and Kage was sent home in a 4-1 vote. On his way out, Kage ranted at Jack C ad urged his tribemates to vote him out, which did not happen. This unanimous vote set the theme for like, more than half of the season gave the power to Jordan and Jack C: they were getting closer and closer to finding an idol, and now composed half of the tribe.

Player of the Season Award

The Player of the Season...

Jordan! 

Though Jordan came up short at the Final Tribal Council, he still played a strong game. He attended the most tribal councils out of everyone in the game, 10 total. He won 4 immunities and found 2 special idols (and the other 2 regular idols in the game belonged to his two close allies). Jordan made relationships with and aligned himself with the right people to get him to the end; though his allies went home, he was able to manipulate the game strategically well enough to make it to the end.

Winner Reveal

Charlotte, Jordan, Tyler, congratulations on making it so far. Now, it's time for the jury to decide on the winner. Let's get to the votes. First vote... Jordan. Second vote... Charlotte So Jordan I just want to get one thing straight, at no point was this supposed to be a personal attack, rather than a critique on your game and how I needed to see some humility, and I'm determined that if you win, you did it on your own Valor and hard work, I don't deny you did it but I just wish you were more truthful about how you did it. Regardless of this vote, congrats if you win babes just please don't talk to the jury before FTC next time nor pre merge cross tribal, hope a first win as Jordan Pines is worth it, Mer would be proud. However I'm voting for Char because I respect her game more in its entirety, I hope I called your win when that damn sapphire idol got me out cause I would love to be Raven, but that RDJ pic just summed up this game for me 1 vote Charlotte, 1 vote Jordan. Third vote... i vote for Jordan pines Fourth vote... Charlotte but the door is locked. And the only way out is through... the Charlotte department. 2 votes Charlotte, 2 votes Jordan. 3 votes left. Fifth vote... Charlotte. As much as it pained me to see you make such ridiculous moves, it was my narrow-mindedness that did not allow me to see every aspect of your game while it happened. The reason I am voting for you is because you effectively made sure my strategy to make it to the Final Tribal Council failed, and you did it in such a better way than Jordan did. I hope you win because you did a really good job and you should be proud of yourself! Sixth vote... and the winner of Survivor: Taveuni, Charlotte I'm voting for charlotte Congratulations, Charlotte. You are the Sole Survivor. Thank you for playing, thank you all for making this season so fun!
