😍 what a lovely thing to see after a crappy meeting

waaaay too busy for a friday for me I tell you

Hello :D

Hello hello!!

I’ve been tracking points and I’ve been disengaged a tad the past hour or so but Soul was leading with Star in like second and then I’ve got the most points after that

So it’ll likely be either soul or star w immunity

Gotcha

This came at the worst possible time for me 😭 I was asleep

this challenge required speed and being really focused online and I tapped out like immediately 😅

Yeaaahhhh

Test of who's online

Hello everyone! Just got to orlando so i have a little bit of time before I have to drive to concert 🫡

Woohoo

Aighty

evening folks

Hiya

I think it might be just you and me tonight? in here

Wait what

I'm so confused

oh bc ricci is at concert and gem is WoWing I think?

Ah

I thought you meant they got sent to exile, LMAO

ohh no thankfully no

Alright, so I'm speaking with Star

how's that going?

They seem to like all of us, but they say they've talked to Tully and Corny the least

Hey gang

i’m back

it was peak

that makes sense, it was similar for me on the og tribe

Ayy, good good

lmao i was gonna ask how the show went!! glad to hear it

im a bit too tired for 1-1s so im hiding here lol

ok im caught up

i did WoW and i was very irritated no one wanted to include my priest in heroic raids tonight i was trying to get into pickup groups and my priest is doing really well but has some low gear and so no one wanted to take a chance on it, kinda bummed

so i ran dungeons instead

i have also talked the least with corny and tully

not for lack of trying, corny and i work opposite work shifts and tully just pops away randomly and has these cats im dying to see photos of but ive only gotten a photo of one

Heyo

Good morning everyone!

Ok, I have news

I’m ready for it

i must have timed my sleeping in on purpose

So

Tully wants Corny

I see, ok. then would corny want tully i wonder

I'm pretty flexible between the 2. I think I have slightly better chats w tully, but he's a little less reliable timewise

morning morning!

this is my question as well lol

im also impartial between the two, like i'll go wherever the majority falls, though corny gives a bit more energy that matches my high energy lol but that's just vibes we're not really close because we barely get the chance to chat between our schedules

tully's energy with me is just more low key which isnt a bad thing

Mhmm

That's about the same for me

I wonder if that low-key energy is why I feel like I vibe with tully more 😭

I was just about to say the same thing haha

I think that Tully coming from Failed 2.0 with Marissa and I could make him a workable number for us, i’m less confident in where Corny lies just since none of us were just with him

that is good strategy wise, that yall already know tully

entirely possible!!

I'm good either way, but Tully pushed Corny unprompted

Which

Makes me trust him more

Well, I've got another update

I have one too actually

corny knows his name is out via star

Mhmm

And I believe most people outside of Star want Corny

Yup I believe so, I actually just chatted to Star a bit more and they seem to genuinely not care at all who goes

Yeah, they seem to have told Corny, but

Outside of that, like

Corny's... Not really doing anything to convince me to keep them

I told corny I was down to vote tully and he seems satisfied with that

Okay I have new info

Star said they’re voting out Corny and believes it’ll be unanimous

Good good

Star and I didn’t quite catch each other until very recently/just now pretty much and while Star did say they feel like they’re the only one who really enjoys talking to corny they have heard corny’s name is out and they’re not mad at him going home

So I told Star I like corny but we just miss each other a lot due to opposite work schedules, which I also told Tully when he was like so what about corny for tribal? And he said he knows he and I are kinda in the same boat cause of timezones but he likes my vibe which made me happy to hear cause I wasn’t sure where we stood 🙈 so I’m feeling a bit better w Tully now

Tully's cool, but he can be pretty inconsistent, it's the same way for me

good job yall

morning morning! i took the day off seriously lol

hope yall are having a good sunday ❤️

Hello! There’s a wild twist going on right now but it seems like us having good connections is gonna be beneficial

no joke!! i just got caught up...and wow

now that we're sort of merged maybe I can get some info from yall on the people I haven't met yet. I got to start new chats with void andrew clint jack and now starting off with theo who seems nice enough so far! oh my gosh this is so many people now

It’s a ton of people!

I haven’t seen them in a while but from memory Theo and Void are very chill, Void will yap more than Theo but they both have good vibes and so far chatting with them now they’re both keeping consistent with that so I think my assessment is safe

I was glad that John was voted from our OG starting tribe because he was the only one that wouldn’t respond to me for days to where I would double or triple message “good morning” lol

I’m still getting to know Andrew Jack Clint and Ryan I think are the only new people for me

I had a bit of time to yap w Clint during the duels, and Andrew and I chatted a bit during the live-ish challenge so Jack and Ryan are the most brand new to me

I spoke to jack some during our duel and he seems level-headed. small thing-we were going do to best of 3 and I won the first game, then he had to run unexpectedly so he gave me the win. I said we could finish it later but he didnt seem to mind losing that point

I'm here!

I talked to Clint a lot, and he was great :D

Yes!! Clint Andrew and Ryan were all great on our previous tribe and should look out for all of us

Ayyy

This should be good, then

Clint was really fun to chat with during our duel he’s very sweet

Good morning everyone!! From the chats i’ve had with the other side, it seems like they’re pushing for Bree to go home if we vote someone from the other side. I’m not necessarily opposed to that but she could be a number for us if she’s totally isolated over there and knows she’d be next

Omg @Gem {S1} it’s your birthday???? Happy fuckin birthday

It is my birthday! Thank you thank you!

She did tell me she’s really struggling on the other tribe so maybe she really would be a good number for us! I’d rather keep our options open than give in to a potential “other side” forming if that’s the direction that tribe is going but at the end of the day if it’s more peaceful to vote her out I’m not going to like die on the hill

Bree didn’t elaborate though so I’m not sure what made her feel so at odds with the other group

Void mentioned having had to play an idol and being left out of a vote

Made our tribe dynamic seem really extra calm in comparison lol but I think I want more information

I heard from jack that bree was one of the votes for andrew in the AK tribal so that may be part of it

I agree! It’s great for us to keep gathering information especially leading up to hearing the results of immunity and then we can decide what we want to do - we should have the numbers to decide the vote whichever way we want it

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I'll talk more but the amount of notifications is making me overstimulated 😭

So

We got any ideas?

I'm about to leave work and when I get home I can focus but rn not sure yet

Well, considering who won immunity from our tribe - the only two people not in our alliance that are available would be either Fuggles, Tully, or Soul and I doubt they would vote Soul out tbh

soul is still in the lodge

Hey hey about to have raid night but I’m around and paying attention

so the people we can vote are:
andrew bree jack ryan sams

the way I see it's like, I think they would vote for bree from what I understand, it would be considered the "safe" thing to do, to build trust with the others I guess. I would just feel like absolute shit doing that because I like bree and have zero personal reasons to want her gone

Like

Here's how I view this

We can just do that and have it easy, or we can save Bree as a number

right. that feels better to me long term

it's just like, "shots fired" doing anything else so it's gotta be worth it? hey we were forced into this bullshit position so

The cool thing about having their tribal in our hands is they can’t retaliate right now so we can kinda do what we want??? So it’s just up to us how uphill of a battle we want later socially but if we partially break up a tight group and get Bree as a number I can see that being a big benefit

But we can play it safe if ultimately we don’t wanna make waves, I’m just throwing out my thoughts

the possibility of one of us going home over the twist makes me angry and want to take a big swing, because why wouldn't they do the same

Mhmm, but then that begs the question of who we actually do

so from what I gather andrew/clint/jack are a strong unit with possibly sams but it might also be andrew/clint as the stronger duo. idk where ryan fits in, but I'm good with him from before and think he could be a number for us like bree. he's less active tho like tully (also aus) but more solid.

Yeah, I've got no issues with Ryan, he's chill

so beyond that idk who would be best. I just met andrew and jack and know sams from one swap tribe but that feels like ages ago now

I’m still getting to know Ryan but I trust yalls judgement

I’m down to take a shot, we would just have to be very discreet so that they can’t do something in retaliation. I would agree that I feel quite confident that Ryan would work with us

Mhmm

I'm down to compare options, if we wanna

Tully just told me he doesn't want Bree gone, really

Hmmm well now that Fuggles has used safety without power, we’re 4/7 on this tribe so we get to decide who goes home from the other tribe

On the other hand of that… Star and Theo are immune so Tully is the only other person left on the tribe

Yeah

That's a real issue

😬

I really didn't wanna get rid of Tully, but

Ultimately

I think he's kinda doomed

Dang, okay Im bummed that literally just leaves Tully but I mean with Fuggles gone there’s not really a choice

Mhmm

That

Really fucked everything up

😭

According to Clint from what I could decipher the vote for Tully is good and Tully mentioned wanting ppl to vote me

I could be wrong because this was all communicated through the WORST game of emoji telephone anyone’s ever played 😂

But I think that’s the gist

I got similar from tully, he wants to pitch ricci to try and pitch the other side voting you. he's clearly aware of his position and upset

Ohhh

If this is the case, then we can't really help him 💀

Yeah I just woke up and saw Tully’s messages and he wants the other side to vote Gem

we ain’t letting that happen

From my chats with the other side, they seem 100% locked on Tully and they believe we’re 100% voting Bree

so best we keep them believing that so they don’t switch up plans and take one of us out

But we have 4/7 votes on this tribe now - so we can decide who goes home

I hope we’re the only side planning shenanigans 😂 🤍

and are we bringing on theo/star and letting bree know? if we don't tell star and theo I worry about the perception of this group being identified like it was "our plan". which it is 😎 but I'd want to try and obscure that

I feel like there may be a lot of questions after this goes down

I’m happy to do whatever this group thinks is best, but I think if we got the numbers to do it, we just swing and ask for forgiveness from the people we left out. This is so delicate since if the other side hears about it they can easily switch votes onto one of us - so i’d rather keep it on a need-to-know basis to prevent it from leaking and firing back on one of us

That’s my worry too

But I also agree with this

Idk the thing that might bite us is if we scorn too many folks we’re risking some being like “nah man good play, I respect it and get it” and some being like “wth you didn’t trust me?” And I don’t know but with us being able to all talk to each other I think the risk is pretty big

And we could have this turn against us at merge like now people really have a reason to want to vote us off instead of seeing it like a shot we knew we could take

We’d also probably expose how close we are

But the risk is so big with us all being able to talk

Okay we need to break this down

I don’t think Theo, who’s been at the lodge for a while would be bad to tell? Because he’d more likely want to save Bree and he didn’t really share a tribe with any of the folks on the other side as far as I know besides OG Loved except for

This one

Hmmm

Star and Theo were together with Jack

Hmmm

Where did Star start

Okay

So

Would Star really care about like Ryan, for example?

Wait

Sorry

Duh

First graphic

if what I interpreted stars emojis as are correct, she doesnt want to vote bree

Wait who’s Clint close to

Jack and Andrew?

yeah

Stars never met Andrew before recently

Like game wise

To have a relationship seems kinda slim

Okay where did Theo go

to the lodge

The lodge! Okay

So like

Do we think they’d really care? Or spill?

idk about theo because he's newer to me but I dont star would

If logically either had spent a lot of time with Jack Clint or Andrew I’d be very concerned fr fr but they could honestly look back over this and go wth I’ve barely met some of these people why’d you think I’d care?

Especially if they don’t want Bree out

I have to see how Theo is feeling about a Bree vote but if Star already doesn’t want Bree gone

This could work in our favor I think to include them

I’ll wait and see what Ricci and Marissa think

I tend to agree bc I don't want to alienate people we might need on our side after this

But Bethany I think I could at least get on board w telling Star

yeah

I’ll wait and see what Marissa and ricci wanna say tho

yeah same

I’m back!! Sorry very busy day at work but i’m checking in really quick and reading up on all of this. I agree that bringing Star in on the plan would help make them a more workable ally in the future - and agree that they wouldn’t want Bree out so would likely agree with whatever plan we have and not leak to the other side

I haven’t heard from Theo at all since yesterday morning so idk what we should do there

In terms of who we actually want to take out… Jack or Andrew??? 🤔💭

Well if we go for Jack there’s a chance Star might not want that? As opposed to Andrew who I don’t think Star or Theo would care about

But Star might also not care about Jack

they're both new to me so there's that but I perceive jack to be the stronger player. good point about star tho

Esp if they’re not close

hmm yeah. I'm fine with either really. if we all agree about filling her in I'll try and talk w star later

Star reached out to me as well and is seemingly pitching andrew

Star actually just said they don’t give a shit who goes

(in emojis of course lol)

I confirmed star doesnt want to vote bree and that they're voting andrew. I'm asking about the other options

if star and tully are already voting andrew, and we get theo on andrew, then if we do, it would obscure us by being unanimous

I'm going to this work lunch in 45 mins and wont be able to be on phone much for a couple hours fyi

alright I'm headed out, ttyl

Morning

Okay, yeah

I can also try to vote in the dark to appear like we're not so united?

What do I tell Andrew and his allies, just Bree?

Yes we’re all voting Bree as far as they’re aware

This would be tricky cause then whoever is voting incorrectly would have to continue to lie to them through the next vote, but if we pulled it off - that would make next round go a lot smoother

Mhmm

I can talk to Bree and see if she's fine with it!

Tully's going home on our tribe, right?

That seems to be the way things are headed, the only other choices are us so hopefully we’ve done a good enough job to keep it off us 😅

Sucks that we lose Tully, but like

That's how it's gonna be

Is Star with us?

I’m pretty sure that star is with us

they were indicating very hard they wanted Andrew

hey I'm back

Hiya

andrew messaged me:
hey
i heard that there's a plan on your side?

Bruh

Not right before I'm supposed to go out

😭

I mean idk if anything changed? like none of us said anything to him and I doubt star did so maybe hes full of shit

I was gonna suggest us get on a VC together if theres any time before deadline

I can't VC I'm deaf

oh shit I'm sorry, I forgot

It's all good, you can just leave paragraphs for me

eh that's ok. Idk if it could even happen. we're never on at the same time 😭

I got released from work thankfully so I can be around now

we got to say this plan is super last minute. because I've been saying bree

I’m out of my work office and around now

I just got a ping that we have 2 hours 😬

I’ve only talked to Star and Star proposed Andrew to me

So I promise yall I’ve not spread to Theo or Tully where this could’ve got out

I’m wondering if it was a bluff

This is probably the best way to smooth things over, just say that we got spooked last minute by some things people were saying and felt like we had to retaliate

Out of paranoia

yeah

So we doing Andrew?

Yeah fuck it full send

🫡

let's rock n rollll

is there anything else to talk about?

I think we’re solid! Gonna be an explosion on our hands but we’re ready to deal with the outcome

I return!

I'll try and play it cool

wow

we did it

and all survived

hell yeah!!!

WHEW

And we got a new friend

we did that. I'm kinda stunned they didn't pull anything

lol me too, I thought for sure a strike was coming on one of us - clearly bree and void didn’t say shit and can be trusted

Oh lawd

He's crashing out

😭

yeah I'm not responding to him yet

he dmed me immediately after

He’s sooooo mad

remember this was a last minute thing

Morning morning!

good morning friends 💜

Good morning everyone 😁 Congrats on all of us making merge!!! 🥳🎊🎉

Heyo! You as well :D

Hey everyone 😅 someone found the idol and i’m pretty sure it’s none of us

?tv-5

Shit

That's not good

wtf

Void was kind enough to share that with me, apparently Star had told him that it was found and it is extremely likely that Jack has it

So on the plus side I really think Void is good with us

Okay, well

On the down side, the people we just blindsided probably have an idol 😭

That's not as bad as someone like, Fuggles per se 💀

it really sucks but then we can split on them

I think Bree and Void would vote against them in a split plan. If Star is telling void that they think Jack has it - that’s a good indication Star would want them out as well. We would have to feel out Ryan and see what he wants to do. Haven’t talked to Theo in like a full day so I have no clue there

heya yall. thinking about the lodge, do we want to group our votes? bree and void both brought it up to me

Mhmm

I'd be game for that :D

Sooo what we thinking gang

Yo yo

I mean I think it’s a good time to take a shot at Fuggles

But I wanna know what yall think

We already crippled Jack and Clint so like, we don’t need to kick them while they’re down

Meanwhile Fuggles has had more power than anyone since the very start of the game w all the chats he got

Thoughts? opinions? disagreements?

taking out fuggles would be a strong move, I think. I've been wary of him from the beginning for the same reason; he's been able to talk to people the whole game. I'm definitely open to it

Mhmm

The only thing is, Clint threw Star to me

IDK if he'd care either way, we'll see

clint did say he trusted fuggles when he was crashing out the other day

Mmm, okay then

Void Star Theo all told me they wanted to split on Clint and Jack

I'm very open to that too. void's been telling me he wants jack in particular

Ooh actually Theo just told me he’d be willing to use his extra vote on a potential split plan. I didn’t want to push that too heavily but idk it may be a good plan if that’s what other people want. Helps our perception if this vote isn’t our plan

good news all, havana didn't have any more seizures and if all goes well should be going home this afternoon. I'm so relieved

Very glad to hear this ❤️

I'm very happy for Havana :)

thank you. I'm calling back soon

any ideas to confirm for the vote? I'm sorry I've been less on this round
