Ep. 15 - “Surprise! Everyone's a snake!” - Will

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164349795498/individual-immunity-6

I'm genuinely so sad that Emily left because she was probably one of the most genuine and nicest ones in the game, we were definitely on different sides after the Amanda G vote but she was never mean or anything. She easily would've won and I'm just hoping those two votes against me weren't any sort of warning... I wanna see how this next vote will turn out because this could be when Ruthie leaves and I need to make sure I can clear myself in case of a bitter jury. We'll see how this goes though.

My best plan here could be to do exactly what Ruthie did for me, go to her (if she doesn't win immunity) and say "If you have an idol, play it tonight - there's nothing I can do" because if I didn't have an idol and had gone home, I wouldn't have been mad at Ruthie at all, or at least if she had been trying to blindside me I wouldn't have known. That could backfire on me if she leaks it back to the others and they realize I'm playing both sides but... I won't know until I try. And I shouldn't worry about it too much until the challenge is over.

I feel so bad for Emily, she is the true robbed queen of this season and she should have won this game. Voting out people who honestly deserve to win is the hardest part of this game.

I'm so fucking naive. 4 hours of sleep does not, in fact, make the fact that everyone lied to you go down any fucking easier. Just....Emily didn't say “jump” and I didn't respond with “how high?!?!” Jesus fuckingn Christ but that's what people thought of me. Guess I really was just sucking on her teat all along. Big hearty shout out to Michael for leaving that in everyone's mind. Sure we joked about his last words but they didn't not make an impression ffs. You'll get your full video confessional when I'm in the states but until then just have this because it's a pretty good summary of what getting blindsided and lied to by the only people you trusted feels like. (Also, gimme an OTT edit if you must this round idgaf. If I go off enough in the video maybe there will be some good lines from it. Who knows) http://jaxxgarcia.tumblr.com/post/159167820182/when-he-plays-u-and-u-feel-like-a-clown

I've been just following whatever my main alliances says way too much. Well, fuck that. My strategy discussing votes with others was to just let them talk and I'd agree or direct them to something. It all feels way too passive and in fucking done with that. Being lied to by literally everyone really makes you reevaluate how you've been playing the game.

So my game might be about to take a drastic turn! I came into this game knowing i wanted to play with Amanda. But ive been basically rolling with her this whole time and I've been with her 100% for every vote weve been on. But since Emily left and Francie came to her realization that everyone thought of her as Emilys goat that I realized that I am essentially Amandas goat. It's no fault of hers, its just been me not being a strategic player, which I never have been. I get by on social game and admittedly that has been sub par this game. So the only conceivable way I could win is if Will and Amanda go home. I feel terrible but me and Francie can only win against each other and Ruthie or Ali. deep sigh. i adore amanda with my entire heart and she deserves to win this game, but if she gets to the end she wins 100% and I cant in good conscience let Francie go to the end with her without trying to get her a win.

me, two hours ago: I am SO fucking pissed about this blindside I'm forgiving no one. me now: I've eaten, had time to think about this logically, I'm calmer and I feel like I've been involved in more gameplay discussion today than I have been all trip.

Francie literally hasn't spoken more than 5 words in PMs to me this entire game and now after she's been blindsided she's gonna sneak up into my messages saying we should talk I just... what's the point? Unless if you're gonna provide me concrete, clear facts and quotes telling me that my allies are sneakier snakes than Russel Hantz I don't want to buy what you're selling. Period.

Tbh the worst part about it being down to the final 6 is that there's literally nobody to talk to anymore since Abbey/Amanda aren't online and we usually only talk strategy/memes, Ali is (I love you but) impossible to talk to for more than five minutes, I've barely ever spoken to Francie until now, and Ruthie's just like such a pure queen but I need someone in this game who doesn't want to talk about the game for like five seconds like is it over is it done yet

https://youtu.be/5d3dUxIrntQ

Here's how it would go for me ideally: we 3-2-1 with Francie being the target, and Ruthie being the 2 so in case of Francie playing an idol then Ruthie goes home and I can be 100% absolved of any blame. Then at F5, depending on who wins immunity, of course, we vote out Ruthie and I play the "there's nothing I can do!" card and hopefully it doesn't blow up in my face and worst case scenario Ruthie blows things up but doesn't ruin my game since she'll be more nervous about the girls than about me. THEN at F4, unless Ali pulls a miracle and wins, we unanimously send him home. In the case of him winning, the girls will probably turn on me but I'm sure I can convince Ali to stick with me since he thinks we're in such a tight alliance, so what'll happen is a firemaking between me and one of the girls which could screw me over but... it's a 1 in 4 chance of us losing final immunity and it better not fucking happen. Anyways I see my path to FTC very clearly right now and I'm going to win this shit.

Currently I'm feeling like I'm Amanda Lynn's goat so.... she's gotta go when she doesn't have immunity. Will has been my number one throughout this entire game and it sounds like he's trying to turn on me after getting off a call with Amanda Lynn so hmmm interesting we'll see about that. We're at a place now when it's every survivor for themselves and if I'm playing it smart the best options for me to sit beside at the end are Ali and Francie, bless their hearts. I mean yes they will both probably still beat me but I think I could make a good case next to either of them whereas Amanda would win- she's social, strategic and has made most of the moves in the game, Will is super strategic and would win and then we have Abbey who I think would win also, she's strategic too. I don't know what I'm going to do but we'll see soon.

https://youtu.be/T9oCLchv-3U

EXTRA DETAIL: Here were Emily’s thoughts after her conference with Amanda

I just ended a call with Amanda Lynn and I am so happy that girl was the one that won the call!!! I wouldn't have been able to say as much to anyone else. I'm pulling for her to win. And I'm so happy she cleared up my tribal and told me that Francie was in the dark. That was the only thing about my tribal that I didn't like... that I didn't know who voted with me, though I was 90% sure it was Francie before the call. I was completely honest with Amanda Lynn, I told her all the stuff I told Ali before I left as a last ditch effort to save myself, and I told her that I told Ali to talk to Francie should I leave that night. She won the immunity and I am so happy!!! She also told me that Ali was the one that had the idol UM WHAT!!! I was shooketh! And he's using it this tribal because, you know, it's his last opportunity. I think it would be most beneficial for Amanda Lynn's game if the idol was played on Abbey tonight just to ensure that she has Ali and Abbey with her in final five. I need Amanda Lynn to win all of these next few immunities because I don't want to give my vote to anyone else!!! The girl deserves it. Also I told her I was gunning for her should I have stayed another round, and she laughed and told me she's glad she got me out when she did. She was genuine about the Gal Pals final four up until I proved to be a very worthy competitor, and I really respect her game for taking me out. She told me it was so hard, especially because I kept saying how nervous I was all day. Which means my guilt tripping WORKED........ sort of. I still got voted out. But at least they felt bad. Ugh, but I really hope the best for that girl. I told her pretty much everything about these past few rounds and how I was in an alliance with the INFPs and how the "friend" I was referring to in my competition confessional (#2) was Bryce. I hope that we can be friends after this game. I think she's such a sweet girl and I admire her gameplay. I was an Amanda Lynn stan before this call, but now I'm her NUMBER ONE stan. Team Amanda Lynn!!! If I can't win, I want her to win. She has such a good read on the game and I trust that she'll make the best moves for her to get her to FTC. I'm nervous because if she doesn't win immunity, she might get booted like I did. She has a target and she's an obvious winner. We both agreed that we knew the winner would either be her or myself. I think I have acknowledged some mistakes that I made in this game and I will use them to better my future games! I'm really thankful Amanda Lynn decided to call me and talk through everything. Especially because I got to write another confessional. Yay! But I think I've said nearly all I wanted to say... So, farewell, confessionals. It was nice getting to write you. <3

I kinda regret not playing the idol on emily but like I kinda don't either it just adds to my survivor resume I feel like people don't see me much as a threat which is a really good thing because they have a long way coming, Amanda is running this game she tells me to do everything and I feel like I'm being used on top of that she's shady I mean she's a good person and I like her but she's way to much of a treath if she finds out I'm a threat she's gonna vote me off so my plan? Vote off her little sidekick Abby ;) I hope I don't dig my self into another hole I have an idol but I need to be slick and I wanna play the idol on will so it will be a 3-0 vote or a 2-0 vote I'm ready for these fireworks to erupt everywhere also I'm searching for a new job and at Orlando so sorry if I can't make live tribals but yassss I hope abbey leaves and then we can blindside Amanda Lynn and then will final 3 with myself Ruthie and Francie :) I'm so ready I'm shaking in my boots

Okay so trying to pick up where I left off in my last confessional. I've been thinking a lot about what Emily told me in our conference call. She seemed genuine when she told me she was rooting for me. But I can't help but wonder if she was telling me some things to get me to get Francie to the end so she can rally votes for her. idk I'm gonna try to not worry about that right now My main focus is getting me and Abbey as far as we can go together.. I'm still a little worried about Francie not trusting me. We had a conversation this morning and she said, "I won't lie, its a little harder now, but I still trust you." So I'm at least glad for her honesty, and I'm gonna do whatever I can to get her to trust me. I told her about Will's 3-2-1 plan in case of the idol. There isn't much else I can tell her expect that I know where the idol is, and I can't tell her that right now because I need Ali to truly believe I didn't tell anyone about the idol so he does what I want him to do with it. "What do you want him to do with the idol, Amanda?" Well, it's simple, kids: I want him to play the idol on Abbey. After talking with Emily, I feel like the others are going to try and take a shot at Abbey because she is my right hand man, my Alexander Hamilton, if you will. And since they can't get me right now because I'm immune, they will try to go after her. I'm trying to get Ali to believe that me, him, and Abbey are a tight 3, and after tonight, we will have majority and can do whatever we want. But, we all need to get there. I told him that nobody has mentioned his name ever. Nobody is trying to target him, so if he plays his idol on himself, the jury could see it as a waste. But if he plays it on Abbey, the jury could see it as a big move (Something he is severely lacking in this game, minus the Amanda G vote). And he... agreed.... He said he was going to play his idol on Abbey. What? Is this real life? Did I actually convince him to do that? I guess I'll find out tonight at tribal. But if he truly does... then whew.... I will be shook at myself. Hopefully tonight goes as planned and Will goes home. Hopefully...

Oh come on like - duh, of COURSE I've heard about the vote what makes you think I wouldn't have heard about the vote by now there's literally 6 people left in this game

Surprise! Everyone's a snake and turns out that when I make f3 deals with people I need to be more careful! Ruthie is really the only real one left in this game huh?

Here's some tea, I let it slip to Will about what Amanda told me and now the three of them are in for a wee bit of trouble hehe. The smartest moves now are to get out Abbey then get out Amanda or Will who wasn't going to tell me about the 3-2-1 vote. Ali and I can pit them against each other and hopefully he, me and Francie can sail to the end!

Anyway Ruthie is just as bad as Ashley and cant keep her mouth shut and Ali is a snake and I'm screwed either way bc I highkey dont think Francie is actually going to vote with me but I can't wait to be voted out next round. Thank you, Will and Ali, for making me cry for the first time this game.

I really almost got played but I may have just Michele'd my way into having the best social game of all these snakes. I really have people willing to put their own games on the line and tell me that I'm the target? Like...nut? What did I do to get in this kind of game position? Sure Amanda thinks I can't separate the game from reality but like maybe that's what happens when you pull someone so deep into a promise you never intended to keep? It's just funny how people will yell that IT'S JUST A GAME but not be able to see it for themselves. I mean I know I'm not going home tonight but still, wowwwwwwww!!!

everything fell apart, amanda is crying, will is being mean and i wanna take a nap. the girls r voting for ruthie i guess ali might be idoling will idk its a big mess. everyone is sad and mad or oblivious (ali). An hour ago i was ready to be the bitter juror but now im gonna be the apathetic juror bc im just so fucking tired of all this bullshit deep fucking sigh

Pre-Tribal: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7aU3uBdz8F2bkdvNDBYR1hOZDQ/view?usp=sharing Post-Tribal: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7aU3uBdz8F2X3JCQjV3NV8xbWs/view?usp=sharing Also what I forgot to mention at the end of it was that we changed our vote from Will to Ruthie because she was running her mouth to Will and that's what started the shit that went down before tribal

NOTE: These confessionals are both discussing the events pre-tribal, it just so happened that tribal interrupted the confessional. Francie has a separate confessional coming in the following episodes discussing the rocks

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164424815603/tribal-15-abbey-and-ruthie-tied-3-3-revote-tied

LAST WORDS: This game has been amazing honestly I never thought I would've made it this far if I had pulled that move off I would've won the game I swear it to you but it's all good I hope I get to play again. :)

Ali T becomes the seventh member of our jury, and the first person rocked out of Survivor Athena: Azores (sixth place)

Ep. 14- “#NotTotallyAnEmotionalMess“ - Emily

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164275878478/individual-immunity-5

ugh I feel bad about that. he was such a good kid :(

I'm so pissed. Soooooo pissed. Go Mo for realizing he's going then calling me out and ruining my already ruined game. I guess I have to play my ass off in this comp huh! Not cute at all. If I lose, I go home. Unless I can turn the tables on Amanda Lynn. I'm not sitting around and doing her dirty work anymore! Also, pissed because three of my frickin video confessions have yet to upload. I'll work on that. But just know I'm not happy at the moment.

Six guesses total, will this be the challenge I FINALLY win? Or will queen Emily win AGAAAAAIN? Find out soon on Survivor Azores! I think six guesses isn't bad, I usually suck at this challenge but this time I like made a spreadsheet and stayed organized so i wouldn't make any simple mistakes.

I literally have an f2/f3 agreement with more than half the remaining cast at this point and that's either gonna go well for me or blow up in my face, because we're reaching a crossroads where I'm gonna have to turn on one alliance, whether it be taking out Ruthie next vote, flipping on Amanda/Abbey at some point, or voting out Ali whenever it comes to it so... There's a very real chance that I'll be seen as too much of a follower but I really hope that I can show my social game saved me and my allies multiple times throughout the game and that the people I turn on, whoever it ends up being, won't be too bitter with me. Also this interaction just took years of my lifespan Ali wtf [8/16/17, 11:28:34 PM] Ali TAnveer: We should def stick together [8/16/17, 11:28:40 PM] Ali TAnveer: Till the end [8/16/17, 11:30:05 PM] Will: yeah? im into it [8/16/17, 11:30:44 PM] Ali TAnveer: Into what :o [8/16/17, 11:31:00 PM] Will: …sticking together [8/16/17, 11:31:34 PM] Ali TAnveer: Sticking what together [8/16/17, 11:31:52 PM] Will: .

I'm not confident in my Mastermind score in the slightest. I have a feeling I'm going to lose this one. This was the one immunity I really knew I needed. I'm so worried that I'm going home this round and it's really frustrating. If things are looking grim, I'll try my hardest to get Amanda Lynn out, though I feel that it's only smart to go after her when I'm immune. I need to start doing some damage and destroying her reputation to get the numbers. I know Mo just called me out last tribal and it'll be hard for me to convince people that Amanda is going to win over me, but I'm going to try. I need her out. And I'm pretty sure this is my last round if I don't. Wish me luck.

1. http://youtu.be/mMp32kOZIWk 2. http://youtu.be/VhVyp9ah-84

Have you ever wanted to die so much? Someone has the fuckin idol and ... I just want to die. So much death. I yearn it. I truly thought... I truly thought we would find it. I love being optimistic and naive. I love being Boo Boo The Fool. I just love it. I just love how things are not working out for me. I just love how I know that, at this point, if I don't win competitions I'm 1.) getting voted out or 2.) getting idoled out. Final Tribal Council... I wish I could have the pleasure to get to know you... its_just_not_realistic.gif

So we've had an idol doc with a running list of all the spots we've searched. Somehow it managed to be in the last spot we searched and it was gone alsjdhskals. We looked high and low and all we got was disappointment. Today has been a mess but at least the fish I had for dinner was good.

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164304312123/immunity-results

Bwkwbwkwbwkwnwj what a turn of events. Neither myself or Amanda won/tied??? Interesting. I'm pulling for Abbey so hard. I'm just hoping the Gal Pals don't turn on me like I'm about to in final six... lol. Sticking with them this round because it's very risky. I came up with a plan to split the votes 3 Will 2 Ruthie just in case either of them have an idol. I'm just hoping Ruthie doesn't win immunity Y I K E S!!!

It is established that Francie also tied with Abbey and Ruthie

Me tying with Abbey and Francie? TIME TO WIN, my fingers are crossed!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mgy3bmUTIhQ&app=desktop

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164309230348/tiebreak-results-2

FRANCIE DID THAT!!! SHE REALLY DID!!! If anyone else had to win, I'm glad it's her!!! And now our tie plan can work :-) I'm so happy??? As long as no one votes me out tonight.

I mean if everyone's smart they'll get Emily out right now, but some people tend to get a little nervous and start to make random cracked moves for no reason, but hey as long as I'm not the one with the target on my back I'm happy. I genuinely believe that Amanda Lynn and Abbey are with me until the end, but I also know that Ali and Ruthie are close enough to me and think they can trust me enough to tell me if things are going wrong and... that's when I can strike :) so if anyone wants to play any funny business games they can go for it. At this point I'm just playing to get to the end and while I have promised to several people that it would be with them, all I care about is myself getting there. That's the only way I have a shot at winning, that's how the game goes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyB77vbXmzk&feature=youtu.be

http://youtu.be/GrcH9IlRo-E

I'm.....holy shit I can't believe it. I really only got it in 5 and not 6 because I got the right colors in the first three guesses as opposed to the first four but still I'm in shock

Ok here's a better confessional. So I managed to win the mastermind tie breaker for individual immunity, and was only in the tie breaker bc I noticed Jay messed up reporting info which could've affected my score so I did it again and I got it in 6 that time. There is somewhat of a luck element in mastermind bc the first few rounds are just you figuring out what colors are in play and I managed to pick the right ones so that I got all 5 colors in 3 rounds and could guess the order in the next two as opposed to taking 4 rounds to determine the colors which was a big help. If it weren't for that there might've been another tie. Well, not might have, probably.

So the plan for tribal is a 2-3 split between Ruthie and Will, respectively. We're splitting the vote in case an idol is played so depending on how the idol is played it will either send someone home by 3 votes or force a tie and then we revote from there. I'm pretty sure Ali is loyal to us so the votes should work out. Hopefully an idol doesn't get played tonight but this time we have a better plan for if one does.

http://youtu.be/q6t7hEaZuaI

I have been making so many video confessions recently because I truly don't know how to type out what I'm feeling but I think cracked Emily is coming out. She's going crazy. She needs help. I literally have been ranting to my parents about this game because I don't have anyone else I trust and I really want to die. I'm putting my faith in Ali right now and hoping he can guide me to the promise land: final six. The thing that's killing me about this game is that FTC is so close I can taste it and my anxiety is taking over like a parasite. I get nauseous before every tribal but this one especially. I don't want to go home!!! I want to stay!!! Hopefully the Gal Pals are going to stay loyal to me for one more round then I can cut off the head of our alliance and watch the island burn. I'm going absolutely bonkers and I don't know how to stop myself. I need to chill out I need to chill out I need to chill out!!!!

OKay so I know I made a really long confessional last night with Duncan and Host Ali and people are probably not going to watch it but I just have a lot of thoughts about this tribal, that is happening 90 minutes earlier than usual, by the way. There is no denying that if Emily makes it to the end of the game, it’s going to be really hard for anyone to beat her. She has been in on all of the strategizing and (so it seems to everyone else) she has spear-headed every elimination. It just makes sense. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t feel bad. I genuinely feel terrible about voting for her (I don’t say “vote her out” because I fully expect to be blindsided tonight). This is the first game I’ve played where I am turning on an ally. And it sucks. I genuinely like Emily. I’ve been close with her since literally the first few minutes of the game, and I haven’t lied to her at all in this game until right now. And it sucks. It also sucks because I feel like I could lose trust with Francie and that I’ll be in danger after this round anyway. These girls are sweet and kind and this completely sucks. I’m also trying to think about like, what to do after this. How do I get to the end against people I can win against. I know I’m not gonna vote Abbey out. It’s just not happening. And I know that I could lose the game because of it. People are probably going to say that our friendship is the reason that we made it this far. Well if they do, I’m gonna counter it with…. Ashley and Ruthie are friends… yet they aren’t here together. Emily and Francie became friends in this game, and (if tonight goes as planned) they aren’t here together. I just have a bad feeling that people are gonna say the game was rigged (as if Jay would ever). I’m working really hard this game, and to think that people could say that I only made it as far as I did because of a rig or a premade or bc I’m a series admin is gonna suck. Don’t discredit my success bc you couldn’t figure out that we were close before this point, even though there have been multiple challenges surrounding the wiki, where it says that we are admins, with our skype names, and access to season blogs, on which you can find numerous posts containing Google Hangouts that Abbey and I both appear on as hosts.. Like… ugh…. http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UyIGOY7DZOE/VdZKz9vWL-I/AAAAAAAAHuk/c3BZlQN58cU/mean-girls-I-just-have-a-lot-of-feel%25255B1%25255D.gif?imgmax=800

I am so emo I think I'm GOING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I told Ali that I don't trust Amanda Lynn and he agrees with me. I think he will be the one that I need to help get Amanda Lynn out. I have his vote should we get her out this tribal. Now I just need to get Francie's and Ruthie's, which I think I will be able to do? Call me optimistic. But should I go this round, Amanda Lynn gets my vote no matter what. If she is at FTC, I vote for her. The only way someone else can get me vote is if they orchestrate her tribal. If I can't do it, I'll vote for the person that can. I am just praying my life is spared this tribal. I am PRAYING!!! Please Survivor Gods, I've been a good egg, let me do this for you. Let me survive another round. Let me win another immunity. Please!!! I'll stay optimistic until my torch is snuffed. :-/

So basically im never going to win! No matter who I go to the end with I'm going to lose. Amanda will always beat me and I dont want to go with anyone else but her. Im scared that shes going home this round but theres really truly nothing I can do about it. Emily will always win if she makes it and Will is also a threat. The only way I have a chance is if its with Francie and Ali. Deep sigh.

Tonight will be the one that REALLY determines if my f3 is together or not, because if anything happens besides five (or four if Ali ends up flipping) of us voting Emily, it's gonna be messy. Everyone knows they can't win against Emily though, like she's playing an amazing game and even she knows she's the one to beat. An ideal final five still has Francie in it, if Abbey/Amanda/Francie end up voting Ruthie I can somehow avoid the blame and keep Ruthie's jury vote, and then Ali will know I can't do anything to save him. There's so many ways this can work out I just need to figure out the best one that will win me the game.

So tribal is moments away and I can't be there for live tribal bc of a family thing but I'm really nervous. If I get voted out tonight, well, it's been fun. I'm glad I played. And tbh if Emily gets to the end... she will probably have my vote. Hopefully it's the other way around but if not, it's been good.

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164348224108/tribal-14-emily-voted-out-5-2-will-received-2

LAST WORDS: This has been an absolutely wonderful game and I am so thankful for the people I have met throughout this process. No matter what happened, I knew this would be a super fun experience. I would like to especially thank Toph, Rafael, Bryce, Amanda G for being such wonderful friends - no matter how messy our NFPs alliance was. (Amanda G especially!!!) Thank you to Jay and Ali for being great hosts for a lost girl's first game. I also wanna thank anyone who put their faith in me and drafted me - sorry I let you down :-/

I have some regrets in this game, but it's all good. I had so much fun and I can't wait to play more games in the future!!! I'm still rooting for my Gal Pals - I love them no matter what. I want to see the three of them at final tribal council. :-) I wish the best of luck to everyone still in the game!!! Also, I'm proud of myself for not crying over my tribal like I thought I would. #NotTotallyAnEmotionalMess? It's been lit.

Emily becomes the sixth member of the jury, and the seventh placer of Survivor Azores

Ep. 13 -"Bang Voyage" - Mo

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164196042628/individual-immunity-4

Im upset, Bryce was like my closest friend and apparently I threw someone under the bus which I don't recall talking shit about anyone?

Like what's even the point of having a heart to heart apologizing to me for lying if you're just gonna lie again like that's so fucking dumb y'all are dumb

Im alone

I feel so bad!!!!! This tribal is going to be so hard to clean up!!!! Now 3/4 INFPs are in jury. With my luck I'll be next. Gotta win that immunity tho! Oh my I'm so stressed. Thankfully the only person other than the Gal Pals and Ali T that I spoke to was Bryce, and now I can't talk to him!

And now Mo has gone awf in the tribe chat asking who he threw under the bus!!! YIKE!!!! AND NOW RUTHIE IS RESPONDING ADKFNJDAFKADS I love tea I love tea I love tea! Oh but now Abbey is fucked because she claimed the Mo vote was hers fadfkadj oh my god this post-tribal is going to be so messy. But the good thing is, with this vote, I didn't have to do any damage control among the others. Mo, Will, and Ruthie are all people I'm not close with and I don't have to explain myself to them. The others do. And I can sit back and watch while the others target one another. Here a nut, there a nut, everywhere a nut-nut!!! I hate myself for using the slang term nut but idk what else to say at this point!!! This is great for my game. :-) Hopefully we can get Mo out next!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh

Congrats to Emily for winning this game, since Abbey and Amanda Lynn decided to join the losing side. Like you really think that Rafael, Bryce, and Amanda G would vote for either of them? I mean... come on... really? Dumb. So dumb.

Will lied, Ali T lied, Ruthie lied, Bryce was honest and now he's gone. Im sad that Will chose to trust 2 people who have previously lied to him and he was aware of it, rather than helping me and Bryce. I need that next immunity, or at least the idol.

What the HECK just happened? None of the girls are talking to me and I'm SURE AS HECK not going to talk to any of them first. I'm going to keep pretending I voted with them before and just go with it and maybe blow up a little that they did THIS if any of them try to confront me! I have to win immunity!

Its gonna be nearly impossible for me to be around for all the post-tribal strategy that takes place right after tribal especially since it's already difficult for me to make tribal this week if I could at all. The plan seems to be: keep Ali voting with us and target Mo next. I still feel too out of the loop. ik Ruthie told me to just enjoy my vacation and not worry about it but like, the farther this game progresses the more important it is for me to stay active because I don't want to sit on the sidelines while the rest of my alliance strategizes and inactivity can make you a target (see: Will). I'm trying to be active but this time difference is....not helping at all

YASSSSSSSSSS *spits drink* *dances hard* I thank god I have this idol this game had been a roller coaster and I'm so happy I have this I need to be smart about it tho I don't need to tell anyone, if I even tell Amanda Lynn and emily they might make me play it so YASSSSSSS YASSSSS I wanna be smart and not play it right away so I'm gonna and lie and say it's not in the 1300s but I'm shook I have it I'm legit dancing in circles it's surreal I think I can win this game now and do some damage

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QZpWtIEuhMQ

So now that I've slept and calmed down I'd like to formally apologize for some of the uh... harsh things I may have said in my previous recent confessionals. But at this point I think my ideal final three is me, Ruthie, and Ali, and I think that we could make it there. Because if Emily, Mo, or Francie get to the end they're gonna win plain and simple, I could maybe beat Mo but definitely not Emily and who knows about Francie. I don't know if I trust Amanda Lynn and Abbey enough to go to the end, plus they have the votes of the girls probably. This isn't to say that I could necessarily beat Ruthie or Ali for sure but I think I'd at least stand a chance against them. Unless I'm a total idiot and I'm being dragged along as a goat but we'll see about that.

The thing I'm gonna miss most about this game is Ali's confessional thirst. Also I'm a flop at individual immunity challenges but I was better at challenges pre-merge alsjdbdbakakahska

I swear to GOD there aren't any GOD FORSAKEN idols on this ISLAND!!! What the FUCK!!! I just want to find an idol. Come on my dudes. I just want one. I feel like the people in our idol hunting group are lying - I mean, I wouldn't tell them if I found it. So I don't blame them. But. I just... why can Amanda G find both her idols like so quickly and I have been searching,,,,,, EVERYWHERE and I can't find anything??? Like oh my god. I am frust-er-8-ted. I say it like that because three syllables isn't enough to convey my frustration. I need four. I want this immunity tonight but I really haven't been studying the symbols as much as I should. After I shower, I'm going to auditions, and I could possibly have down time then where I could just run through the symbols. If I can do it from memory right now it'd be like... plus sign, ..., smiley face, equals sign, multiplication sign, and a heart. I forget the second one. And I'm not sure if all of these are in the right spots of what I'm even supposed to do with them!!! I have a bad memory!!! But I'm excited for the comp nonetheless. I have fun doing these comps (but I have more fun when I win!!!). Hopefully I win my third immunity tonight!! If I don't, I'll expect some votes coming my way. May as well add on to that one vote I got two tribals ago, she's lonely. She needs friends. Much like I'm lonely because my friends are gone. Well, I voted one of them out. And the other was out of my control ... well we could've split the votes but we didn't because I didn't think we would need to lmao. Oops. So not really out of my control. But ANYWAYS! I'm hoping we can get Mo next! He seemed very shook when Bryce went home. Let make him shook-er!!!

Ali held me at gunpoint and threatened my family so I would write this. But in all seriousness I'm glad that there was like an actual reason for Amanda Lynn and Abbey lying to me and I would like to (somewhat) redact my previous confessionals calling them dumb. I was bitter, you'd do it too. But I do think I could beat them at the end, and I definitely don't want to go down easy now. That could all change soon but we'll have to see I guess!

I am so nervous about this comp!!! I just want to win. But I am doubtful I will win tonight :-/ ugh. I hope for the best! But will I get it? Doubtful. While I really want to win again, I also don't want to make my target bigger. But I like being immune... And I'm already a target so... The more I win the merrier? I don't know. Wish me luck anyhow.

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164240491143/individual-immunity-4-results

I'm next

I'm almost confident about the fact that i'm getting the boot tomorrow.

That was embarrassing I'm usually so good at challenges but not memory ones lol I literally need Emily to stop winning because as soon as she loses she's gone unless she has an idol and then I'll be ready to die

AHHHHHHHH idk what's more embarrassing, getting out on the third shape or being in that hangout with all the girls that turned on me last week! I still don't know what happened and I want to get to the bottom of it but at the same time URGH.

but for real my reasoning is this: I didnt tell emily because she lied to me but I still trust her and Amanda lynn shes been upfront with everything with me, she might use it against me but im really happy I told her

I'm going to have such a big head by the end of this game. I need to stop winning. But also I don't want to stop winning because it's FUN!!! I love it!!! I love not having to worry about going home at tribals. So cute. But I need to recognize that I will lose sometime and I need to keep a leveled head. But right now I'm just going to celebrate!!! I'm so happy :-) and now I can try to get Mo out this round!!! Then Will probably. But then... final six. I need to get Amanda Lynn out before she goes too far. I need to figure out how I can do that. I'll probably need to convince Ali, Ruthie, and ... Francie? I think most people know that they can't beat Amanda Lynn in the end AND she's great at words and convincing people. It's not that I'm not confident in my game and wouldn't be hopeless next to her at tribal, but I think it would be better if I was not next to her. And it would be a great move on my part orchestrating her tribal. So we'll see how that goes. Anyways, I'm going to relax for the night and hope game talk doesn't start too terribly soon. And tomorrow I GET MY BRACES OFF PREPARE FOR A VIDEO CONFESSIONAL TALKING ABOUT GAME AND NO BRACES!!!! Yay!!!

I feel worse about voting out Mo than just about anyone else in this game but everyone has to go at some point and he started acting acting shadier towards Emily and Amanda lately and whatnot. I am still going to vote him tonight I just feel really bad about it is all.

Ugh I hate doing this but I'm sorry mo mo you're leaving unless you have an idol but I have an idol aswell lol 8th: Mo 7th: Will 6th: Francie 5th: Emily 4th: Amanda Lynn Final three with myself, Ruthie and Abbie I hope this happens pls god!

Well this might be my last confessional. Who can never be sure?

http://youtu.be/vJCilFcr-mg

SO Amanda and I are on track for finals IF everything goes well. We've finally got an alliance with will that seems to be working! If everything goes well Amanda I and francie or Ali are gonna be at f3

I'm really like not about to force a tie in the F8 vote that seems so unnecessary like why do we want things to be difficult? It would only be good for me to vote out Amanda Lynn in terms of a challenge threat, backstabbing her now would result in me burning a jury vote and losing a loyal ally I had in the game. If we're being honest I don't think I really have a chance to win against most of these people, but all I can hope for is that I get to the end with people who are less liked, since I basically controlled the pre-merge and saved my ass when I needed to most. But I'm not about to bring goats to the end, I want win fairly.

Okay so I definitely should have been making confessionals throughout the round, because tribal is 90 minutes away and a lot has happened. So first, I apologized to Will. He was cool about it he’s fine. So I formed an alliance with him and Abbey and presented him a plan to get us 3 to the finals. And it kinda goes like this… First, we vote out Mo bc thats what everyone is looking to do anyway so dont rock the boat. Next, vote out Ruthie, but Will cannot vote with us. It needs to look like he is not voting with us so they don’t suspect we are together. Then at f6, we vote out Emily. Bc girl is too good at this game. She keeps winning immunity and she’s just genuinely good at this game. Then from there we pick off Ali and Francie. All of that is what I actually want to do up until the point we vote out Emily. After she goes, I planned to go to Ali and tell him why Emily had to go at f6, make up some lie about how her auction item was a Legacy Advantage that she would use at f5, and therefore she needed to go now. Then we take that opportunity to vote out Will. And then at f4 vote out Ali, so that its me, Abbey, and Francie in the f3. I feel like I could beat Abbey (sorry girl) and I feel like I could beat Francie, so that is the best case scenario. This seemed like a fool proof plan. BUT THEN. Freaking HURRICANE MO decided to blow through and start throwing my name around. So I’ve been in full panic mode for the last 2 hours bc I’m just starting to work with Will so idk how much I can trust him, and like… Emily is a smart girl. She’s got to know that at this moment, I’m her competition in the end bc I keep matching her in challenges. So I’m running around to like Ali asking for his idol (yeah, he has the idol and I’m the only one he told. So naturally, Abbey knows too), asking if people would go to rocks for me, point blank asking Emily if she’s flipping bc she and Francie have been talking about how they dont want to vote for Mo, and going to Ruthie for the first time since the Bryce vote and UGH. After 2 hours of panic, I still feel a little up in the air, but Ruthie is telling me she was going to vote for me but since I messaged her decided not to, and Emily is assuring me that she and Francie both are voting Mo, and blah blah. I’m having Ali play his spyglass anyway, but it looks like its gonna be 7-1 (I hope). I’m trying to trust my alliance… worst case? It ties, and Ali, Will, and Abbey all said they would go to rocks for me, and I’m hoping this last minute bonding between me and Ruthie would cause her to flip. In case I am voted out, I gave Abbey my auction item, which is to call any eliminated player. I was going to use it to call Ricky and apologize, but I can do that after the game, and if I am voted out, she can use it for something better. I just… really hope I survive this round.

http://youtu.be/R48dONv4Qd8 http://youtu.be/SckQyWHrgkc

If Amanda Lynn is trying to trick me again I'm going to throw my computer out the WINDOW. i mean i deserved being told the wrong way to vote once yes because of the Will thing but THEY DIDN'T KNOW I KEPT HIM I'M STILL SO SALTY, me being the bottom of the totem pole of girls? not cute.

Bang Voyage

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164276106278/tribal-13

LAST WORDS: That was so fun, I had such a blast and it honestly made my secluded summer much more exciting. I wanna say thank you to the hosts for having me and hopefully I'll be able to return one day on another season (Heroes Vs Villains) ANYWAYS. I made a bunch of new friends and I will continue to kick it and make puns with all of them.

Ep. 11 - "Just call me Teat Sucker Extraordinaire" - Francie

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164040737523/individual-immunity-2

When you're laughing so hard you can't record a good video confessional but try anyway. https://youtu.be/WV-nhwkzG20

Michael is officially removed from jury

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164041757508/jury-announcement

HEY my name is Ruthie and I'm a used napkin. I don't know what's happening but I think Michael is going to get kicked off the jury and it just makes me wonder what's going to happen, I wish Ashley would come in as a juror but y'all said she wouldn't want to so that makes me wonder.... who was before Ashley??? RICKY? IS RICKY COMING BACK PLEASE SAY YES

i feel like someone was after ricky but before ashley though idk maybe not but the best person for my game to come back as a juror would DEFINITELY be Ashley or Ricky because I was loyal to both of them.

OR WHAT IF Y'ALL BRING BACK ZOE OH MY GOSH first pre juror to.... juror

"Ruthie/Amanda G/ Zabbey: you guys literally have the presence of a used napkin." Thank you, Michael! You were so fun when you weren't around! I'm really glad he didn't say anything that couldn't endanger my game, though. He said false shit about Emily that could get her in trouble, though. She doesn't have an idol and just because she's running the game and you're bitter doesn't mean that she's a rat. Bye bye, now.

M*chael's exit was glorious. It created a tag yourself meme. Ready? Tag yourself! Ali -cool -easily manipulated Amanda Lynn -needs luck -next Bryce/Will -have much better social games than michael will ever have -float Emily -has a sewer house -steals wifi -eats wet french fries* -has moistened, calloused hands -has the idol *only from McDonalds Francie -sucks emily’s teet -has no game play -buy Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson iTunes Mo -cringeworthy individual -thankfully didn’t know m*chael on a personal level Ruthie/Amanda G/Abbey -presence of a used napkin Personally, I'm tagging myself as Emily. But also Mo. Michael is sort of right about me having people around my finger but the people he thinks I have are... so incorrect. Francie isn't sucking my teet, she's most definitely playing her own game. And a good one. Amanda Lynn is not next, she's an ally. Bryce isn't floating and Amanda G doesn't have a napkin presence, they're both aligned with the wet french fry eating sewer troll. This boy truly thought he had the game figured out! AND he calls me out saying I have an idol that I DO NOT HAVE! He's so silly. I swear! But he gave me a good laugh. Thankful for that.

Really disappointing that he won't be on the jury but after that shit show I don't think he deserves to be. BUT TOP 10 BITCHES I LOVE EVERYONE WERE ALL MEMES

I picked Toph bc he's the one I liked most of those three (I'm actually not too bitter abt him anymore) + if I make it to FTC i think he's the most likely to vote for me as opposed to the other two. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just call me Teat Sucker Extraordinaire.

I hope Raffy gets to go to jury because I have a closer relationship with him. I know he would vote me if I made it to the end in a heartbeat. Even if I don't make it to the end, he would be so much fun in Ponderosa! Sorry Toph, I love you too man.

ASHLEY COULD COME BACK AS A JUROR I AM LIVING. THAT COULD BE A VOTE FOR ME IF I SOMEHOW MAKE IT TO FTC. Raffy or Toph wouldn't be a HORRIBLE thing either though but ASHLEY I think that Raffy and Toph wouldn't vote based on being bitter so I mean them coming back could be good and I could make people think that i would be good to take to the end because they hate me then just make like a killer speech or something, I don't know I do know I need to work on my social game though, work is KILLING ME but it's almost the weekend and I'm gonna dive into everyone's PM's

M*chael booted out of jury? My kink! I don't want that negative attitude in my juror pool. With these possible jurors (Toph, Rafael, and Ashley) I figure that both Toph and Rafael will vote for me in the end. I voted for Toph because I love him and I know he'll vote for me in the end should I make it. I think Raffy would do the same, but I was closer with Toph and I know how enthusiastic he is about this game and I think he would have a lot of fun in jury. I'm happy for him being considered!!! I like this because these people being considered are all enthusiastic about the org and won't be bitter! I think they could all appreciate my game should I make it to the end :-) I hope I make it!!!

Rafael replaces Michael as a juror

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164045486513/announcement-pt-2

Even though I voted for Toph, I'm super happy for Rafael!!! He totally deserves to be a juror and I'm so happy for him :-). Also I have a feeling he'd give me that FTC vote so YAY!

Also, Amanda Lynn has proposed an all girls alliance for the final six. I'm nutting so hard! That means I won't have to fight to keep Amanda G! But also, hunty won't really be able to use her idol UNLESS!!! I convince the Gal Pals to go after Amanda G before Ruthie. Then, we can all vote out Amanda G (5-1) BUT!!! SHE CAN PLAY HER IDOL!!! AND AMANDA LYNN IS IDOLED OUT!!! That'd be iconic. I may have to sacrifice Bryce but... Female empowerment am I right? I can at least try to save Bryce until final seven fdksjfnkajd. I think that we definitely need to idol Amanda Lynn out at final six because I know I'm at the bottom of the Gal Pals. Amanda Lynn, Francie, and Abbey will go to FTC together and won't take me, at least I think they will. Amanda G might. I don't think she should but she would. I love her. I think the best final tribal for me would be Amanda G, Ruthie/Abbey, and me. Ruthie and Abbey are interchangeable.

Ugh but this is also great because this plan more or less ensures I get to send a picture of me without braces in the Pelotao chat!!! I want everyone to see me with cute teeth.

Today was a good day on the island. I'm just hoping no one is secretly plotting my demise. Yay!

I don't remember if i talked about this or not yet but I'm sad Ashley isn't back as a juror but raffy winning? i could possibly work with that although i'm disappointed it's not Ashley or Ricky, i think i knew raffy pretty well considering and i'm just going to have to like bring crackedt ruthie back for a round or two and maybe get him to be a fan again and just hope that if i somehow make it to the end that my speech outshines everyone else's.

I love this challenge and will be so disappointed if I don't win it AHH it will be cute to see them try to figure out another name to write down in case the an idol is used ;)

Okay so I miss Michael and I feel like I'm next so I'm trying my best to be nice to everyone bein fake and trying to up my social game cause I love this game there's a lot you need to get me out of here y'all! Ugh so like I need to win this immunity I swear If emily wins again I'm gonna cut someone

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164078293488/individual-immunity-2-results

One day I'll do well on one of these challenges. One day.....

I had the most points.... In some cases that would be a win.... This is not one of those cases....

I'm so excited because a girl is winning immunity tonight one way or another. Emily and I contrived a plan that I want to stick with because it's good for my game. An all girls alliance, because its 6 girls against 4 guys now. I want Will out first because everyone is speculating that he has the idol and plus, he's gone for the weekend. He can't do anything about it.

OMG!!! Me coming out of a very bad play to see that I tied for individual immunity??? Iconic!!! I am so happy tbh. I hope I can pull out a win for this tiebreaker. If I can't, I think we'll still stick to the plan and vote out Will. Things will be fine!!! But I know I'm a big target and if I keep winning comps then I will... Become a bigger target? But it's better to have individual immunity than receive votes at tribal??? So it's fine I'm fine. I just hope that I can put these comp wins on my final tribal council resume. The little slogan is outwit, outplay, outlast and I outplayed you HUNTIES!!! I hate myself I'm such a narcissist I'm sorry there have only been two individual immunities and I am already getting a big head. Yikes. Someone needs to vote me out to put me in my place.

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164082894408/tiebreak-results

I retract my previous, "I outplayed you HUNTIES!!!" because Amanda Lynn outplayed me lmao. I am never going to forgive myself for not seeing that there was a link to the Survivor wiki page on the fucking Wichita, Kansas wiki page. Fuck Wichita, Kansas!!! Like I'm not sad about losing I'm sad about how I lost and that I was so close. Like I saw that I got it in two clicks I was like yay!!! And then she got it in one and I wanted to kermit. THEN!!! T H E N!!!!! Ali has to message me and say, "Hahahaha Amanda won yas." I AM EMILY YOU DUMB DUMB DON'T SAY THAT TO ME I AM SAD let me mourn the loss of this individual immunity. But it's fine I'm fine fjdfkjadsf. As long as Will is going out this week, things are all dandy.

THANK GOD EMILY DIDNT WIN

http://youtu.be/npK_8yFMFnY

amanda won immunity! the majority female alliance is made and it seems pretty solid! Ruthie and Amanda G dont know theyre the bottom so its poppin! This final 6 will happen i have planted the seeds and i will enjoy the harvest

https://youtu.be/UilB_RVTA2Y

Guess who's back with a brand new track that's just a mess as they are? Me. (At least /I/ think it's a mess) While I ~could~ edit these video confessionals, that just takes too much effort. https://youtu.be/qtDpn3E_2Fs

https://youtu.be/GnkO0epBZ9Q

My gameplay this season is working out how I exactly like how I want it work "be lowkey, be funny and make moves when needed" but I don't appreciate when people don't tel me the tea, emily hun you were my closest ally and you barley talk to me now! I feel extra shaded I didn't do nothing to you and I feel like right now the person who's straight up with me is will and I believe now there's an all female alliance and I'm ready to blindside someone I'm tired of playing "with the flow" I lost 2 allies in michale and Gwen cause of it and now I really like Bryce and I don't want him to go he isn't at threat like you wanna keep amanda g and emily in this game but take out Bryce these people I like personally but they can be very dumb sometimes so I'm ready to do a blindside this round and I'm ready for a shake up in this game I'm not going to be a duck waiting for my departure I'm gonna the take bulls by the horn and eat everyone like they are rats I'm at a cobra also emily you're nice girl act doesn't work out at all hun, you act so innocent but in reality i feel like you're a villain I'm sorry I love you but in this game you're dark sides

So this vote is pretty troublesome. Like I think the girls are all one and that's super scary SDKJFJSKF. No one wanted to say any names all day and Francie was very distant. Amanda and Emily seem pretty fake adfkladsjj but I love them. Will wants Amanda G so I think all the girls are voting Will. Which is sad but I guess at least it isn't me. Me and Mo are going to be in trouble if it keeps going at this rate. I would hope that Amanda G and Emily have my back no matter what but IDK if that's realistic.

I'm like... not surprised that Amanda Lynn is a snake. Like not surprised at all. Incredibly disappointed in Abbey though like... girl... try again lmao. Just because I said I would understand if I was voted out by an all girls' alliance doesn't mean you all pledge to protect me while I'm away with NO internet service except for brief moments, like betray me when I'm here don't be cowards about it. That's ridiculous and you're all dumb sorry about it. I guess my idol schemes are being shot in the foot but at least someone who isn't me will go home tonight. Even if they change the vote I don't care. They're all cowards in my book, this isn't a big move this is you all not being able to deal with breaking a promise so you do it when you know I can't say anything. It's weakness.

Tribal is in an hour and I am very nervous once again that things aren't going to go my way or that I'll be joining the Ponderosa chat once again. I'm very anxious. I have to pee. I just want to know for a fact that I'm safe. Last round was great because I was immune and I didn't have to worry about people plotting behind my back. This would be a damn good opportunity to vote me out though. Why is not one taking it??? They should. Smh. Whoever successfully orchestrates my tribal and votes me out is going to be the person I give my vote to in the end honestly! But I just hope it's not this tribal lmao. I still have some tricks up my sleeve ;-). Also I want to win more individual immunities and play in more fun comps!!! I'm excited!!! But also frightened. I'm going to go eat my wet french fries and stare at my computer screen until 8:00pm eastern time. Goodbye.

Me and Bryce are trying to find someone to align with and our options are limited, we think the girls might be aligning but we're unsure and I don't wanna align with Ali T because he makes me uncomfortable.

Why the fuck are the Gal Pals freaking out so much??? Nothing is up!!! Everyone is confused because they all look to us for how to vote AND NO ONE TOLD THEM HOW TO VOTE! Splitting the votes won't be good for us. Will might have an idol but I think he's walking out with it! We just need to chill out. I get this is nerve-wracking people being vague but they're being vague because WE were vague first! If Will plays his idol then Bryce or Ruthie go. I don't know why Amanda Lynn is freaking out!!! Things will be fine. I hope???????? Anyways, I need to pee and shower before tribal. Goodbye

I can't believe I'm doing a confessional from a plane but ok. There's a possibility Will has an idol and is directing all the votes towards himself so he could play his idol and be the one in control. That's the idea at least so we're having like one or two people break away to vote Bryce so Will can't throw a wrench in our plans to vote him out. I hope none of the F(emale)6 goes home tonight and also that I'm around for tribal (an announcement came on while I was writing this that there is indeed gonna be more of a delay)

https://youtu.be/RhlKpijeSjc

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/164116321918/tribal-council-11

LAST WORDS: Wow... my last confessional. It feels unreal to not be in a bunch of chats at once. I'm so shook, but I feel fine. I would love to play more games in my free time because of this and it was an amazing experience. Thank you Jay, thank you host Ali, thank you Raffy, Toph, Bryce, my cute NFP alliance. A very special thank you to Emily... I made a really good friend because of this game and I'm so grateful for this. She better win, I love her, my ride or die till the end :)

Ep. 10- “time to start some... evasive maneuvers? ”- Will

https://survivorazores.tumblr.com/post/163965402088/individual-immunity-1

OUR ASSES DIDN'T GET MICE AND MEN'D BLESS

I'm not a fan of Michael's message. Francie said in an alliance chat that she thinks it was her who he was talking about because she responded to him with one word messages. Not really knowing that it was a bad thing. The dense comment was unnecessary.

I'M SO SHOOKETH!!! I truly thought that this was my last tribal!!! And I didn't get a vote??? I was so paranoid. And now??? I??? Am still here??? A blessing. Everything is fine and all I have to deal with now is Michael! And he's already digging his grave by being rude, inactive, and shady a lot! I'm so happy! I'm hoping touchy subjects doesn't ruin shit for me. We shall see! I'm very excited for this comp, if I'm being quite honest! I am just too excited for everything I guess. Now that I survived a tribal I most definitely did not think I was going to survive, I am alive, awake, alert, enthusiastic *clap*

I can't believe that no one is taking what Michael and Gwen said to heart though... It's true and people should recognize it but they're not jndfkjsnfk but I love it like that so YAY! Wow. I'm happy.

Touchy Subjects didn't just blow up my game last time, it obliterated any chance of me making it without individual immunity. This better go the way I want it to, and I better not be ruining my game by putting myself into an all girls (minus me) alliance right now... time to start some... evasive maneuvers? I guess?

So I'm ready to do a long confessional I'm super happy I made the merge and jury! That was my first goal and in a season like this where everyone is atleast active I was nervous if I ever was gonna make so I'm shooketh I'm here, but the thing is like I think I'm playing a really good social game, I'm close with Michael he spills the tea and I'm close with emily where she spills me tea and amanda Lynn like she's a nice person. But this GIRL is a mess express she has over 12+ alliances and is in everyone's ear like can we vote her off? I don't want too right now tho because she has my back and she's a shield for me so we'll see what happens when challenge results come, will is pissing me off saying that Nayeli vote was "my idea" bitch please don't put it on me, you hoe but for real will is a threat, Francie is a threat too like the girl is not even in anyone's radar YET SHE BLINDSIDED GWEN. I'm done also who tf is Bryce?

I just really hope my game doesn't get blown up while I'm away over the next few days, like I'm missing tribal tomorrow night and missing the challenge and the next tribal that's... scary and not fun ugh. We'll see what I can do though maybe I can make it work but I just really hope this doesn't cause me to flop

Emily told me that my name was being thrown around, which makes me really nervous. Good thing I have Mr. Espirito Idol to help me out if I get in a doozy. That was earlier, though, now everyone is saying they want Michael out and that's what I wanted to do last night. He's not good for my game or Emily's game, but I'm so happy she has immunity tonight. That girl deserves it.

Okay but I am literally such a bad bitch that I don't talk to these people at all, but I'm hated by everyone. I am LIVING for this.

Honestly if I'm not casted for a heroes vs villians twist then like?????

http://youtu.be/gGTiyQVramg (I'm typing another actually well thought out confessional, this was just my immediate reaction LOL)

So everyone wants to vote Michael which is great because it isn't me, but also isn't great because I need to see someone in the majority go home - not necessarily someone from my alliance but like... someone with power. And I think Amanda G is that person I'm very sure she's in an alliance with Emily and some combination of other people, and I think I could maneuver things to take her out. I have a plan that involves telling Ruthie about my fake merge idol, giving it to her to give to Michael so that 1) he trusts her and 2) he can flash it to make everyone think he's going to play an idol so that they split the votes between him and someone else (maybe Bryce? Mo?) and then we get a majority of 5 (me, Ali, Ruthie, Michael) to vote out Amanda G it would be crazy but... I really have no idea if it's worth it right now or if it's the right time or what's gonna happen. I could even potentially not vote for Amanda G and get the votes split so it's only three for Michael, four for Amanda G, and four for whoever they decide to split the votes between... this math is getting complicated but I really think I could work this out right here and right now. If there was ever a time to cause chaos it would be in this moment.

ALSO why was I voted most oblvious?? THESE 👏🏼 PEOPLE 👏🏼 AINT 👏🏼 SLICK👏🏼 THEY 👏🏼 ALL 👏🏼 A 👏🏼 BUNCH 👏🏼 OF 👏🏼 SOGGY 👏🏼 PRETZEL 👏🏼 STICKS 👏🏼 I know everything going on this game. I am a WOKE EVIL QUEEN 💖👑 CROWN ME BISH!!!!

*goes to tree mail* *finds idol*

I GOT VOTED THE HERO IM SO HAPPY BUT I ALSO GOT THE BIGGEST GOAT WHich kinda sucks and is making me rethink my game, I also got best social game so that's nice I think? I don't know if that'll make me a threat or not. I don't know, I'm happy for the hero thing but sad about being the goat.

I have no idea what's happening AH that makes me wonder if it's me. . . . I'm hoping for Michael though.

https://youtu.be/GZWT2YJ7gHM have yet another outdoor, 10 minute, lowkey a mess video confessional

Guess who's a flop? Me. I didn't add everything I could've to that vid confessional. What I forgot to mention was that Amanda G and I were talking earlier about Touchy Subjects before the results came out and then she asked me who I trusted and I told her I really trusted Emily. I told her the truth, I really trust Emily, but there's also more people that I trust but wasn't going to tell her because I didn't want to reveal all my ties, etc. While I was writing this I talked to her some more. She asked who I was considering for tribal and I told her Michael and said she was too. I think I can trust her word, or at least I hope so.

Okay so I think the vote is gonna be Michael. I told Amanda Lynn that I didn't find the idol and she said that she didn't make it past the word search which is a lie according to Emily so that's iconic. Will said he didn't get it but lowkey he did.. Mo wants to work with me and said he trusts me the most and honestly I'm just like SAME. I am trying to decide if I should tell him about my alliance with Amanda G and Emily or not. On one hand I want to let him know things because it can strengthen our bond, on the other hand he could be playing me or not even playing me but still leak it and that could be bad! I am also talking to Ali T but it's so hard because he speaks in like buzzwords; plus he once said mommy and I still think about that in an unsettling way. Also I got voted that I wasn't playing the game and I think it's because I find it so scary and hard to talk game with all these people. What if I get exposed?? I want to set something up with Mo and Francie but I am afraid Francie would tell Emily and then that'd be awkward. Like I'm understanding of Amanda G or Emily having alliances but I don't think they'd feel the same way. Also Amanda G not telling me about the idol clue because she thought I was too good at puzzles is slightly annoying but I don't know if I would have finished in time even if I knew sooner. Also still trying to get Will to trust me, I feel like I am putting in so much effort to get him to want to be a close ally and then he gives me nothing in return?? Anyway long confessional but this has helped me think things through so hopefully after this vote I can be more comfortable. P.S. Girls outnumbering boys is iconic!!

The duck is still in my room and I keep thinking about what's gonna happen elimination wise and what order it will happen in the game

i didnt get anything bad or really anything at all in touchy subjects so thats cool! The girls alliance + will is off the ground and it seems to be working ok! Michael is hopefully gonna go next and I've been talking to Ruthie a lot more. Shes sucha sweetheart i love her!

Now that I'm immune, I think today is the day I work on my resume and chill out. After making a "big move" with Nayeli's idol and THEN voting out Gwen, I've created an enemy with Michael and PROBABLY Ali! This boy tells me that he trusts me 110% then goes around talking with Michael and planning to vote me out! I'm immune this round hunties get off me!!! Focus on... I don't know who else they should focus on because I'm apparently running the game. Thanks Touchy Subjects! But honestly Touchy Subjects was so much fun djsfkadslf So Amanda Lynn is telling me that Ali, Michael, and she (Using that FreeRice grammar? Idek know if it's right I'm keeping it because it sounds funny.) are talking about my tribal. Michael is CONVINCED I knew Toph before this game which is SUCH bullshit!!! I honestly feel attacked that he feels this strongly about it. Also, he's just rude. I don't understand why he's gotta be rude! Not cute! But my absolute favorite thing about this is that he thinks that in Toph's goodbye message, Toph said, "I love you RUTHIE." R U T H I E!!! I'm DEAD! He completely forgot that it was Amanda G oh HONEY this is iconic.

But I'm so happy pretty much everyone is on board with voting Michael! Amanda G, Amanda Lynn, Francie, Abbey, and Will are all confirmed voting Michael and I can get Bryce on our side. If Michael is going after Ruthie, then Ruthie will vote Michael. And Mo will just vote with majority. This is beautiful.

Thinking back to Touchy Subjects, I'm very honored people think I'm running the game. Iconic. And some of the last few tribals have proved that theory? I had a hand in every tribal I attended (Which was only three... But let's ignore that.) and I think that'll be good for my resume. I'm excited to see how these Touchy Subjects results influence my game... Hopefully in a positive way? But the things that I won were all things that put massive targets on my back. Best edgic? Who is actually controlling the game? Who is playing too hard for their own good (Also, how did Will get that too? What?)?

OKAY WHEW I haven't done a proper confessional in a long time so I think it's time. So much has happened since the short round with the Gwen vote, so I think I'm just gonna go person by person and talk about everything that way. First, I want to start with Touchy Subjects... because WHEW. Okay so I was given the following: Who is playing too hard for their own good? Who needs to be exposed as a snake or a rat? Who thinks they are running the game? Who will win if they get to the end? Who would you trust with your life? That's the most answers I've received in a single Touchy Subjects to date! It's very nerve-wracking bc..... They think I'm gonna win? They think I'm a rat? And they all trust me? What? I've gotta tread very carefully. I'm really hoping to go to the end with the Gal Pals, so I'm trying to laugh it all off with them. Okay so let's start with (hopefully) tonight's boot - Michael. So I don't really have much to say about him because he's like... hardly here... Honestly. He's around to like, talk bout how everyone hates him and maybe rally some votes to vote Ruthie (Not happening) and then he's nowhere to be seen so... I'm playing it off that I want him to stay (which is mainly for Ali's benefit), but tbh, he can go. So let's move on to Michael's BFF, Ali. Okay so Ali is a very nice guy, and I genuinely like him as a person. But as a player? He's VERY needy. He's constantly asking if his name is going around and he doesn't want to vote Michael, but he will go where they votes are, and he wants Emily out but we can't be she's immune so he wants Ruthie out bc that's what Michael said, blah blah. I feel bad lying to him, I genuinely like him. But this is what's better for my game. He caught wind that Michael is probably going home, so I'm trying to play it off like, Oh no, we gotta fix this, but like.... nah I'm good with it. Next is Mo, who was attached to my hip on Espirito, always asking me what to do, what to say, how to vote... and now that we merge, he hardly talks to me. lol. I see you, bud. Next is Bryce... who.... is complicated lol. We talk about non-game things all the time, and always just casually bring up like, "Oh yeah, this is who people are voting for." So like... I guess its okay? I just want him gone asap, but if mine and Abbey's plan works, its gonna be at least another round before we can get him out. I'll get to that later. So this whole game I've tried to talk to Amanda G and its just... hard to hold a conversation. But she comes to me out of the blue like, "Hey we haven't talked. What's up?" Then we talk casually and then all of a sudden she says, "Yeah so this is who I wanna vote for, but I'll do whatever." THIS GIRL HRJWEDS I'm yelling, she's so funny. I'm forgetting someone....who is it.. who...is... it.... Oh yes, Ruthie. HGRJFDSK I feel so bad but I always forget Ruthie. I don't have much to say about her.. I try to keep our line of communication open, but that's the extent of our relationship. So then we have Will, who I've wanted to work with but haven't had the chance until now. He wanted to form an alliance with the Gal Pals (not that he knows that that is a thing but anyway). So we have the Sleeping Nerds, and it's good for now. Abbey told me that Will has the merge idol, so that's good to know. He and I talked quite a bit last night and I like him a lot. I feel okay working with him right now. We have similar interests, gamewise, so he's a good ally to have for the moment. But I don't want him around too long. If anyone can overthrow the Gal Pals, it will be him, and we can't have that. I'll get to that in a minute. So I'm just gonna talk about all the Gal Pals at once. Abbey is still my closest ally and best friend, but we are trying to hard to not allude to it, especially to Emily and Francie. If they catch wind that we are more loyal to each other than we are to them, they will vote me out in a heartbeat. Abbey and I want to go to f4 with them, so our loyalty to them is genuine, but they need to believe that it's an even loyalty across the alliance.. if that makes sense. I dont have much to say about them tbh. We are all generally on the same page and want the same targets and we always report back to each other. I trust them all. So this confessional is super long and I do have more to say but I need a break, lol. I'll come back to this later and finish and talk about mine and Abbey's plan, but for now I will leave you with these four words: All. Female. Final. Six.

I'm getting really nervous about this tribal council it's like wow, no one is really talking to me maybe this is a simple vote agaisnt michale but I know this game and I'm getting nervous it's me because nothing is easy in survivor, I also feel like emily is not talking too much with me even though I told her I close I am with her so idk what's gonna happen, these people wanna play safe but I know that may be an act, all I know is that people want Michael out and I'm okay with t I guess, and I swear amanda Lynn is a snake troughout one minute she's like "we gotta listen to Michael" and the next minute she's like "I wanna play safe" make up your mind girl, I also love Bryce idk much about mo and Ruthie I feel like they're floaters and Francie is this girl is a amazing game player!! But if I go tonight I'm not leaving without a fight

Playing too hard too fast was my downfall ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i Think I stayed that would be my downfall in an earlier confession. Also making a premade of toph and Emily upset was an issue as well

Michael’s last words to the tribe chat and in-game behavior resulted in his removal from the jury

Opening Statements

Francie:

Abbey:

Hello jury I hope you’re all doing well! First things first I wanna say congrats to the other two here, and thank you to everyone who helped me get here. My usual strategy in these games is to be “””the funny one”””. I feel like I did that but yall are also funnier than the usual people i play with full offence to everyone else! I tend to ally with good strategic players and try to make myself as important as possible so they like sort of do the work for me. I know I’m not strategic and if I tried to do that work myself I would 100% fuck it up so that strategy has been the most effective for me in the past. I was fortunate enough to form an alliance with all women and it was the best alliance I’ve ever been a part of. That being said that alliance was never going to the end together. Emily and Amanda were strategic masterminds and I knew for a fact that if I went to the end with either of them I was losing. I tried to go to the end with people who had as little as possible to do with my game as I could. Francie went to rocks for me and Will and I have been allied since round one so obviously that didn’t work out quite like I had planned. But the two people I’m here with didn’t have a lot to do with the game moves I made and I think that is very telling in terms of how I made myself important to strategic players so much so that they got me far in the game while also taking the heat off me so they got voted off and I am here in the end. It isn’t a pretty strategy but obviously it works because this is my third FTC. I look forward to all of your questions! Also a big thank you to Jay and Ali I love yall so much <3

Will:

Hi everyone!! First and foremost I want to thank Jay and Ali for hosting such a wild and fun season, and for putting up with all of our crackedness quite literally from day one. I definitely was not entirely honest and transparent all the way through this game, but tonight I want to be up front, honest, and transparent about my game - as such I promise that any questions will be answered honestly. I believe I played a really strong game, but any strong game also comes with flaws and mistakes, and I want to own all of it: the ups, the downs, and the outright flops. This FTC will not be about me dragging down the other finalists, as I believe we all deserve to be here, I only intend to defend and explain my game. Everyone wants to get to where Abbey, Francie, and I are sitting right now, so I want to acknowledge and respect any hard feelings - literally be as mean as you want, I understand.

I don’t want to get too into my gameplay here, since I feel like most of y’all will ask questions about that and I can elaborate later, but I do want to highlight one thing. My main strength in this game was my social game and relationships, and while some will argue that I was in the minority basically from my idol play onwards (or even before then), I feel that my social game is what kept me in the loop and kept me safe up until Final 6 (after that the only thing that saved me were two VERY necessary immunity wins). Like I said, I can get into more later but the relationships that I formed with people helped me greatly for most of this game, especially those formed pre-merge as we moved into a chaotic merge.

I’ll leave the rest open for any questions or statements the jury may have, but I want to reiterate that I’m not here to call people floaters or goats or undeserving, I’m here to own my game that I played for all that it may have been. I’m really excited to hear what everyone has to say, and I can guarantee that no matter what is said there will be no bad blood towards anyone on my part. Good luck to the other finalists, let’s end this wild season with a bang!

Final Tribal Council will be live tomorrow night, around 8pm EST.
