#6th-garrett

Hello everyone I think some introductions are in order from myself since I am sure most people have no clue who I am.

My name is Garrett. I'm 28 from Iowa. I promise it is more than just cornfields here. I work part time while going to school full time. I want to one day work my way up to a good job to support myself throughout my life.

I love my cat, Mr. Butters. He is a ten year old orange tabby cat, but he is the sweetest cat anyone will ever meet! Unfortunately, his health has started to go down a little bit, but he is still full of life and energy at the moment which is great! (cat pictures later unless i forget)

I love survivor, been watching since Cambodia, but I have seen every season of survivor! I also enjoy listening to music, gaming and taking care of my cat, yes Mr. Butters is spoiled.

I think that is about it for my introduction, looking forward to seeing where I end up and how the game starts to play out!

can we see mr. butters

yee i can get a picture of him gimme a second to find a good one

he takes really good photos too! like it's funny and sad that my cat is more photogenic than I am 😭

AWWW

this is my favorite picture of him on his first birthday with his birthday scarf

he looks very dapper with the scarf

he does but he hates dressing up we tried a party hat too and he just gave the biggest glare

looks like you’re playing for more than just yourself. you’re playing to provide mr. butters with the best future you can.

yes mr. butters future must be secured too 😄

found mr. butters laying like this, he's alright just taking a cat nap. i was scared at first for him 😭

mistah buttahs

I think i might start trying to break the ice. i played an org once, where i only talked casual talks with people and i was at the bottom because of that. i want to make it known that i am an asset to this group. it also will give me a feel for like, who actually wants to work with me. so i dont think its a terrible decision to try to break the ice with game talks?

how is it i am the carry??? do you know how many of my org friends would laugh at that 😭 im like the biggest challenge flop you'll meet!

so colin tells me last night while i was asleep that tully threw out pizzaman's name immediately with no prompts or nudging or anything. if tully is being truthful that is insane. like, that is another level of blind trust and while im happy for colin, it makes me question my own position in the group. it's not a whole lot to stress about right now but i'll keep it in mind.

okay okay this might be good for me? maybe i can get something going with francisca and colin although idk if they trust each other... i may need to see where colin is at first, but i definitely dont want either of them out if we did end up at tribal again. at least in this moment.

hmm i think colin has carlee as an ally and i have francisca as an ally. this might be a little awkward if we were to go back to tribal... tully really picked a tribe and said ill just be by myself yall pair up huh... and the thing is, i dont know if i can even save francisca if we were to lose again. i do think colin protects me and i protect colin but i think we need to win next challenge. losing francisca this early would be tough for me.

also i should not get ahead of myself. idk what will happen at tribal, but i guess im not really that worried about it? i dont think there is an idol hidden yet. and even if there was the only one that might find it is colin on this tribe. also if pizzaman for whatever reason decided to find five idols today props to him honestly. i dont think idoling me out is a good move and i have been working on the connection with pizzaman when he is active.

I am excited to see how tribal pans out in a few hours and maybe i feel that way because there is a safety net in the fact if i did get blindsided that pear tribe might not cut me where i top scored on this tribe but i dont really know. time will tell!

I said treat time and he rolled around 😭

i do not miss the waiting game before tribal i think i stressed myself out for no reason 😭

please dont let us lose this next challenge 😭 ughhhh this could be really really bad for me.

man, ive been trying to think of something noteworthy to write about... i guess ill talk about this. im a little worried im doing too much too soon. however... it is also the position im in right now to protect not just my alliance but also colin who i said i wanted to work with. i do very much trust colin in this tribe but can i keep him safe? idk if i can and that is what bothers me.

Last time i played an org i was in this same position albeit i was kind of a dodo bird and had literally no idea i was in that position. i genuinely enjoy meeting people. but i think the draw back is in a game like this... people dont forgive someone who can smile at them and then write their name down on a parchment like nothing matters. that is what i worry about. i dont want to backstab colin or francisca, but i fear if we lose i may have to decide and that comes with consequences.

also, i think from what francisca told me briefly before the alliance was made yesterday it seemed like it was carlee's idea? it would make sense as francisca i think, but i dont know for sure, that she trusts me more than carlee. either way i would just love to win this challenge so we have unity still.

I should not have valued my sleep last night, but I am so glad I did because I needed it lol. Woke up to the main twist and I just finished reading it and I am a little confused but that's normal as it was just announced. I wonder how many people are going to just not try now that voting costs bells? I definitely think it is a good twist from the hosts, because it will show who really wants to be here and win.

I may try to talk to the alliance I have and see if we cant figure this out together. securing anything as a group is better than nothing. I really think this game will get messy though as I strongly doubt people will be able to vote every round leading to some interesting scenarios. Either way I am excited for this!

I guess I should write something else. not much has happened today other than learning there wont be a workable bond between francisca and colin any time soon. I am a little worried about Carlee. I trust her, but at the same time if she wanted to, she is the one person that could take me out. however... i dont think she wants to isolate francisca so as long as i have francisca im fine on this tribe, hopefully?

i also dont know if i fully buy that colin is terrible at idol hunts. it could just be the skeptical approach I am taking this game, one of my goals was to not blindly trust anyone. Plus I know these people talk, like... with how well ive been doing i dont think they would not consider taking the shot if it meant they kept unity. that's where I think francisca is my life line. they dont have unity on me and risk things blowing up at a swap.

I dont have stupid written on my forehead this season. like colin and tully can go. i feel bad for carlee cause she is gonna have to make the decision if we lose but like... i think peachy three is her crew. i do think im safe if we lose cause colin thinks im probably in his pocket so i feel like francisca gets the votes before i do. at least i dont have to like play the middle anymore though so that is nice.

Does Tully think I'm oblivious? Genuine question. Everything he is saying screams you are on the shit list if we lose 😭

Mr. Butters finally let me take his picture again today will be a good day

Mr. Butters always cheers me up when I need it. 😭

like that is such a good picture of him

btw im fine just stressed with school

im a tad concerned for results tonight. i hope we win, but idk if we will. maybe we can manifest second place. either way, if we do go to tribal its going to be such a toss up.

i think there are pros and cons to tully and colin going home, but like... no matter which one we keep the other is going to be angry. that is kind of the key factor for me is if we lost, who isnt going to be mad at me? that kind of gives me a clear answer. i really hope we win, but if not im fine with that outcome too as long as carlee is with me and francisca im good.

speaking of carlee, i did have a really good heart to heart with her earlier after she was frustrated in 1-1s. im hoping in the event i dont have carlee that is enough to at least buy me one round to swap. but that is like worst of worst case scenarios.

the game is afoot again. im a little annoyed but its okay its a game.

colin... if you see this after the game. whether i go out here or not, you are not that slick. you tell me you have no working connection with francisca then tell me shes making swap???

yeah i cant lose francisca here. if she goes im next. colin and tully are trying to just establish a pecking order. and lets say we do swap next, and im wrong that its not f14 swap, well then theres one angry peach. but that is just the risk vs reward factor. yes it means someone will be left out, but this vote for me is a gamble anyways. the risk of not swapping outweighs the risk of swapping with one angry peach.

He's sleeping peacefully 😭

this vote is honestly going to be a cluster and ill be at work for the latter half of it... ugh why cant everyone just chill? i get the concern, but like no stop it paranoia is bad for the "unity" we all want 😂

well i have a lot of thoughts after tribal

i definitely got played by carlee which props to her for doing a great job in her first org. however, i think that just makes her as dangerous as colin was, if not more. i dont think now is the time to strike her cause we have 4 peaches remaining and i really need to keep her happy with me, however... what i can do is make others aware of it. they all probably thought she was gone and that she survived off of an advantage or something. i dont plan on keeping it a secret about what happened cause they left me out of the shovel purchase. and even if that was just francisca protecting herself, which it very well could have been, why not at least share that with me?

if we are supposed to be a rock solid alliance, then you think that i would've known too. oh well, i do think i can work with tully moving forward. if i can do that im in great shape. i am just worried about this joint tribal... i have PTSD with joint tribals... plus im worried i may be the 'easy consensus' because im a peach with no duo like Carlee and Francisca have. However, that may also work in my favor if i play it right. Either way, I think this round will be interesting for me. It will definitely make or break my game.

definitely using today as a recharge day, or trying to... i am moving on monday, gotta work the next two days and i have two assignments due sunday plus potentially tribal tomorrow. not freaking out at all. its fine.

OFFICIAL CONFESSIONAL QUESTION

who do you hate the most in this game right now and why❤️

um... i dont hate anyone i only know 3 people in this game. it would be kinda silly to hate anyone even if that makes this a boring answer. 🙁

then who do you LOVE THE MOST!!!! :D

on a game level? well tully hasnt lied to me or omitted information, so id say tully even though i did lie to him about the colin blindside. i think we patched things up? but time will tell.

gosh this is going to be terrifying this vote. i think its a 5-5-3 split 🙁

Ugh no one wants to say anything 😭 I get why but surely something has to give eventually? Like it worries me cause I'm starting to feel like they just want one of me Francisca or Carlee out.

Oh my God I'm shaking. I just got the bottle for 2,500 bells 😭 this could be game changing for me

I do think if I don't hear anything by my break time I might just assume it's me and go from there. This is a little insane that no one has heard anything and tribal is over halfway done.. especially since there's a no tribal at last hour rule in place

Or whatever that rule was

I also think Carlee and Francisca know something cause they are being incredibly dodgy today

But I could be paranoid too idk

Either these people are great liars or nothing is happening still. I'm hoping that something happens soon

im waiting for this to turn into a game of musical chairs but its whoever joins vc last gets dog piled

that would be wild

me realising theres no vc

nvm im a little tired and slow

okay that's insane. i knew they were targeting a peach. i still have common sense lets go

i feel bad though. but i genuinely dont think i can do much to shift the tides of this vote. especially where like people are probably settled already. but i gotta just keep moving forward. 😭

emp is like giving me crumbs at a time... i think he is hinting at it being a peach, without making it look like he is leaking. which i been knew that...

i hope im making the right decision here

we will see soon

i really hope this doesn't bite me, but it was too soon and from what i gathered cherrio isnt a huge loss to pear.

Francisca what are you doing... It honestly is starting to annoy me how she is hunting for bells and then messes that up by joining vc and then dipping. now she isnt even replying to me? idk it is frustrating but oh well. there are a few things about this swap that annoy me but thats neither here nor there. i do think i need to see where emp is at. cause francisca is messy messy messy. but ak and emp are probably close?

okay so francisca is just pre gaming i guess. that makes sense ngl. it was always weird how like her and carlee would literally do everything together and just exclude the rest of us.

what led you to this conclusion just out of curiosity

we have been talking about it in the tribe all day but if you want me to go more in depth from my point of view, when they first asked me to be a part of three peaches or whatever, francisca said "carlee and i were talking" okay that didn't mean much at the time but then the colin vote when they played their shovel to ensure numbers without me. kinda shitty but still not pre gaming. it wasnt until francisca blew up in peach tribe chat saying that we should throw her utb at swap and not just this the only people i told were ak and emp. missouri i think knew bits and pieces but not the full story.

anyways when francisca blew up i saw carlee type then stop. i knew they were a duo, but then that means that ak told them what i said. okay whatever. now we swap and im told from ricci that snubbs knew francisca and carlee were already a duo so that was weird. im pretty sure carlee/francisca could just be a duo, but then add snubbs into that it starts to get weird and then i heard on this tribe that ak knew ale.

100% i dont know if they're pre gaming cause im a player in this game, but these little coincidences add up especially when i dont get talked to the same way the people in their supposed pre game do.

oh also add in the fact that the mystery fourth voter to save carlee was snubbs apparently. idk if thats true but 🤷‍♂️

new day new approach to the game. going to just try to be social and take each day for what it is. no more caring about the past. i still feel burned by francisca and carlee but it is what it is. maybe they didnt know if they could trust me. either way, im just gonna focus on the rest of the break and then go from there.

im just a little pawn in the sea of snakes

but that's okay ill rise and become a phoenix eventually. and when i do i'll make this tribe pay for putting me in the minority 😄

the way im listening to skyfall by adele in this moment too

at least the game is slowly becoming more interesting now. there is also an idol on the loose somewhere in the game. i found the stuff to solve it but as usual i was 3 steps behind in the idol hunt. ah well im just proud i had solved the final step. that was evil. pure evil.

AK ran offline when i said that really? 💀

is ricci really mad over having two trios on this tribe? like you can switch places with me i dont really care.

nooo francisca why.... i am praying we win this now

im glad shes okay though

😭 i feel like such a meanie for what i said about francisca a few days ago and it hurts

nevermind i dont feel bad. i get its a game, and she has to do her thing, but ill do my thing too.

ugh i hate having to play the pawn but that's the card ive been dealt right now. hopefully down the road if i survive here i can start to like build actual trust in this group but for now it is what it is.

well and i shouldnt say i have no trust built

i do

but like...

these people were really considering, and may even still be considering taking me out over an inactive which sucks

i do think, however, i can fly utr if i survive here

eventually people are going to figure out i was the bottom of this tribe and that could work for or against me, but we will see

i think i also need a merge or mergatory

as much as that would suck

it would help me greatly

well i guess it doesnt suck but like

mergatories scare me

on an unrelated note, i am praying my customers are not moody today. like.. i dont need the added stress lol

Honestly I feel sad after that but it's whatever. I got to keep moving forward can't dwell on what happened.

the way i have survived so far is kind of insane though. i guess i havent been in extreme danger, yet, unless we lose this challenge. then im basically dead man walking lol. i guess tbh i am worried we lose the next comp. it really makes no sense for tully to keep me around. i trust him to though. like you know you have good allies when they are willing to tank their position for you.

i really feel isolated though cause these people said oh its unan let me save my bells. like okay then? 2 people feel that safe lol.

anyways, i think im gonna get ready for bed. work was not a good time and im probably in some trouble for being a free thinker.

today is a new day in the game. i definitely dont feel as screwed as i should being on the bottom. I do believe tully and ricci will vote with me, which is nice as i have no where else to really go. i dont see why or how snubbs is scared of me over the 5 apples left in the game, but it is whatever.

if we do lose again, i will more than likely target emp. i like the guy and i hope his birthday is great, but i dont trust him and AK will probably get paranoid and potentially idol. no matter what happens i do think if i make merge im set for the start of it. the apples need to be stopped too. like i do think even if emp goes out next, the numbers might be 6-5 with a small disadvantage for me but i dont think id be targeted first.

im excited for what the future holds for me in this game. even if i go out next im having fun and that is what matters at the end of the day.

i did a quick think, and i am thinking snubbs and I may need each other in the game. we are literally in the exact same spot just he started on pear and i was on peach. ricci and tully have that s1 connection and they can use AK to their advantage at a certain point. so I am eventually going to have to do something whether it be on this tribe or at merge. i would like to get established with snubbs, despite the low trust we have in each other right now. I say this as ricci told me snubbs wanted me out last vote and tully confirmed it.

huge risk of a move, but it has so much benefit and reward if it works out. However, thats not to say i dont need ricci and tully, i do very much need them. I think if they keep AK, which is the goal, then that can start to become a narrative that snubbs and i are on the outside which may help us, considering merge is most likely next round.

ideally i go into merge with orange tribe + dallas and missouri. while it wouldnt be a long term alliance and there are some risks involved that could appear as time moves on, at the start of merge it would secure numbers.

however, for my game to truly take off it starts with snubbs and I being able to work together.

i think it worked. if i have snubbs i am looking forward to how this season will go for me if i make merge. i think it would be easy to fly UTR? however i think one thing im going to do at merge is make sure my social game is stronger than my strategic game. ive been pushing people in my direction this entire game and i dont want that to be noticeable. i may step back at merge unless i absolutely need to step in.

CONFESSIONAL QUESTIONS
@Alive Player answer or choke
—~—~—~—

1.) Aux Wars 🎵


2.) Last Tribal 🔥


3.) The Game 🥊


4.) The Economy

I'll answer at home

1. i think our submission is fine, because we really tried to pick niche songs and not mainstream songs. snubbs vs dallas is always fun and exciting to view. it better win us immunity or no mr. butter pictures :< jkjk idk if we will win will depend.

2. heading into the vote i knew i had to push francisca cause it was me or her. i think i came out on top though, because she said she wasnt close to carlee? which idk why she would say that. I feel like im not in the greatest spot still. definitely not running things, although i wouldnt say im at the bottom. imo the tribe hierarchy is something like

Ricci
Tully
Snubbs
AK
Emp
Garrett

I may be underselling myself because the tides are starting to turn but id say as of last vote this is where things were at. I feel somewhat better after tribal ended. I think I could still be in danger though if we lose.

3. Tully Ricci and Snubbs are allies as of right now. only because we need to even the field of apples a bit. they are over running the orchard. I really like AK and Emp too but on a game level I cant work with them cause they have too many options and I dont.

4. I like the twist i think its unique and creative. I bought a shovel at the joint and used it last vote. I think i may need to save up for something else, but like advantages are a curse and a blessing. A curse because if they leak people are gonna want them flushed. a blessing cause they can help keep a person around. As of advantages I have my eye on nothing at the moment. Mainly cause I am broke from this twist lol.

that is frustrating for sure

i kinda figured we lost but we definitely got done dirty on the animal crossing theme. oh well, nothing i can do to changed what happened.

also i guess one interesting thing is if i survive here i hold the tribal council record this season so far at 5 tribals. 💀

i cannot believe i am once again looking at being the boot before a merge. i swear my luck is ass in these games 💀

ill just keep on trying my best no matter what happens

god if i get through this tribe it will be the stupidest thing i have ever done in an org thats worked. like... i get targeted at both tribals and it's very clear im on the bottom here... then im not only allowed to make a 4 person alliance, but im also allowed to stir chaos between the apples and pears? like please tell me this is a dream. granted i haven't lied to anyone but ak and emp. just funny that they dont seem to realize i have no problems stirring the pot if i get to stay.

Ugh this is why I wish it was AK going

But I'm a pawn in a sea of snakes

Yes I reused that deal with it

started on the bottom and worked my way up to the top. next stop merge!!! i hope.

the way ak is spiraling is genuinely concerning

me when my allies are trying to sneak around each other right now to get the upper hand in a tribe where none of us are guaranteed a majority...

ngl, i do trust ricci a lot, but if he flames out here its his own fault. like, i think it's silly that he wants to make sure tully is closer to us than snubbs.

ty ty i am very happy i didnt think id get this far

these people are so obsessed with me its almost sad.

idk if i survive here

i hope i do but it really just depends

should i update? i guess im just confused right now. like what did i specifically do to get targeted three tribals in a row? it is a little demoralizing but I am going to keep moving on if I am still here and hopefully if I am still here people will leave me alone for a vote 💀

ty ty i appreciate it although there are a lot of people better than myself at this game.

but im only demoralized in game outside of the game i dont take it personally

like someone has to get votes

the way this game just divided i love it yeah it means we are in a 5v5 but hey, they saved me i didnt ask them to. either way the cool people have my full loyalty at this point.

okay maybe its not 5v5?

idk this game just got split wide open though

its so weird how people are acting with me

carlee - claims she didnt vote and there's evidence to support this

riley - is showing signs of wanting to work with me... is this an act though?

ak - i think we repaired the bridge but i dont trust him.

ale/cass - 👻 👻 👻

we weren't last? huge if true

we got 5th overall somehow

what a crazy morning for tribal council

god this vote is a mess. i cant wait to get targeted again because riley thinks me of all these people would leak anything to AK.

and now im being ghosted guess ill just go do something else 💀

well it wasnt me. i can bounce back

i believe in me

tonight we cry tomorrow we recover

me just reading all the lies ricci missouri and dallas kept from me. it makes me mad. like i havent even typed anything in there

but i guess i should at some point

ok i think im feeling good about things today. im gonna keep a positive mindset and hope for the best moving forward.

i like touchy subjects too so im hoping i can do okay on it even though im sure idk everything going on

and things blew up 💀

sighs maybe ill just play with the wasps that keep stinging me

i got wasped AGAIN today

3 days in a row 🙁

okay to elaborate ricci and ak apparently had a massive fight. god this feels like a brantsteele simluator rn

but anyways ricci is not happy and ak is not happy so i guess it had a lasting impact? 💀

i hate how like

ricci is imploding

it sucks to see

but his entire game kinda came crumbling down and i think hes a dead man walking

i feel awful but the fight between ak him and riley is insane

hi emp yes i know im being sheeped i dont need a reminder 😂

how the FUCK did i get included in this

am i playing better than people give me credit for? 💀

idk im shooketh

damn i lowkey mightve just set myself up nicely too

we will see what tomorrow brings

AK is definitely in trouble this round. which isnt surprising but its like people really wanted the side wars to last all game 💀

thats so boring to me

@Coconut How're you feeling about the Auction? Any items that stand out to you? What do you hope to win through this challenge?

I kinda want the extortion advantage or the information I think both of those could help me a lot

That's what I have my eye on

My heart is broken i am fairly sure after Mr butters had his dental cleaning and blood panel for his health that he is now petrified of me for being the one that brought him to the vet. He was hiding in the very back corner of the kitchen cabinet. 😭

I left for work upset and I am hoping my cat will forgive me

if i am allowed to i would like to clarify that emp meant hello goat as in greatest of all time

@- everyone's favorite host i will abn you from my server do you hear me

🐴

Ohhh

yeah remember when i lied to myself 5 hours ago?

thats probably not a good thing 😭

also i have a feeling ricci is playing me. like you told me this morning there would be a 5 created for this challenge yet its still not made???

like

if you are going to include people in fake alliances at least create them 😭

and the thing is i would have assumed it was real

but now im like am i being played? cause its still not made

hopefully im just tired from work though

ugh ricci why are you not telling me what Dallas told me 😔

i know you are lying to me about ftc your heart isnt there

its with pears

like that is the only thing that is keeping me from going to the end is that he thinks he has me fooled.

little does he realize his own ally sold out his true f3 lol

and it is breaking me cause I would genuinely go to ftc with ricci and be happy losing, but... he wont tell me about his other trio

this is hard to watch ngl i feel for ale

Dallas. Imma need you to know your place. Carlee is a threat, yes that's true. but she is the only connection i have to the other side. why would you also want to threat purge?

idk ill have to do some brainstorming

i am very nervous for this round. im placing a lot of trust in a lot of places. if it goes well though i think im in a good spot.

okay so ricci wants the side war to continue. ughhhh i really dont want it to continue. he has a lot of good points though. but if i keep dallas here i piss off and burn jury votes for no reason. that isnt how I want to play the game... plus id have to use my axe to even break the tie at this point. I dont like Dallas in the game enough to burn my advantages for him especially when he didnt do the same for me..

i think that today has been horrible for me in this game. oh well, if i go here or next round no one to blame but myself. at the end of the day, I know I am proud of myself and that's all that matters.

on the bright side

mr butters is keeping me company again

so he is slowly warming up to me

yee i will take a photo of butters later after everything calms down

that will be my destressing time

good morning yall are gonna have to wait for the mr. butters photos because of the comp

but i will get some today

i fucking love how the majority on this tribe are just sitting on their asses doing nothing. like i dont think they fucking realize if ricci wins this challenge he is just gonna steamroll comps to the end lmao but hey id be happy giving ricci my jury vote

when mr. butters?

He's hiding from me right now I woke him up too many times

is he ok ? i saw that he had to go to doctor

normal checkup or serious event?

Yeah he needed a dental cleaning cause he had a tooth eating itself

And he has hyper thyroidism

So he has a giant tumor in his neck

oh poor baby

Yeah but he is okay

that's good that's good !!

i am allergic to cats but i love them deeply

Aw I'm sorry to hear that but they are sweet animals

truly! i have a small, cat-like dog myself

whats their name

his name is johnny and he loves to pretend not to know me sometimes when we are out in public

fun fact: my next dog will be named butter, and is the whole reason behind my discord user!

matching pet names :)

but this is ur confessional, not mine! garrett, may i ask u a few game questions?

awww i love the dog!

and sure

sorry i was afk but im here now

i found mr butters hiding spot

he glared at me and rolled around

expected

well garrett. i have 3 questions to help me get inside ur head!

yippie

first, can you tell me about the relationships with each of the people left in this game?

do you mean my connect to them or their connections to each other?

your relationship to them, though if u want to speculate be my guest !!!

ill just go in a random order

starting with cass, we dont talk much, and everytime we have we kinda just lie to each other. maybe i should have started on a more positive note... but yeah i feel bad cause she is chill.

ale thinks im ricci's goat im pretty sure, and fwiw i havent really dispelled that i would say he has been a little more honest with me than cass though

Carlee I think she's the hero of the season and the nicest person alive, but i wouldnt bring her to the end cause her social game is deadly in a good way

missouri is supposed to be my ally but has left me out of his and dallas' true thoughts twice now and he lost dallas cause of their tomfoolery... i do like missouri on a personal level though

and the big two

AK and i have had a rollercoaster of a time between me accusing him on swap to then getting targeted by him 3 times to then working together only for me to burn that bridge only for him to be like okay with what happened. i need therapy after this season cause of this 😭 too many ups and downs but i genuinely like AK as a person

and Ricci is basically the person i feel closest too in the game. we dont really talk much personal stuff and ive offered to but it is what it is. i guess in game though i am just glad there is someone dependable and reliable, but at a certain point i feel like that can become a liability. ive been struggling to uphold our agreement to the end because i know the consequences of that action. its something that eats at me daily 💀

thats everyone

so garrett, considering how the immunity challenge is going for you (congrats on fishing but dont get complacent!) how would you describe your dream f7 vote?

i still have my phone im staring at the fish dw but if i win this idk like i burnt the trio of cass ale and carlee and they have ak now...itll be interesting but ak wants to keep me rn so id say if thats true i have options. my targets are carlee cass or ricci depending on how things play out

but ricci is a struggle for me to consider

special 2.5 question bc im curious: what do you think the outcome of each of these options would mean for you going forward?

gimme a minute to think on it i havent thought that far

cass going probably means ak and i are in the middle next round or ale hard targets ak

carlee would mean missouri cant flip at 6

ricci is the biggest risk vs reward, risk because if he stays im screwed but if he goes 4 cherries could run the tribe

however it breaks the goat perception

ideally i target carlee but idk if that will work 💀

thank u thank u

i guess 2.5 and my 3 are kind of the same actually: if all goes to (one of these) plan(s), what's next for garrett?

hopefully i get to make it to the top 5. thats always a huge goal is getting to 5 but i rarely get past 5 so imma try really hard to make sure i make it to the end if possible

im playing to win though

even though not much has worked out

well garrett, as they say.

it's not joever til it's joever. thank u for ur time and for letting me and the fans get into ur head.

yw i should confessional more i just get nervous

i will perhaps be back with more formalized questions if hosts dont kill me for doing what i please

i dont like the spotlight on me much 😂

no worries!

the spotlight can be scary but i only spec orgs to root for people and see the funs things they do!

thats fair

i believe that most people do the same and watch in good faith.

i agree i dont think people are mean spirited naturally

they have to learn those traits unfortunately

it takes a lot of energy to be mean spirited! it's much more fun to be curious and kind.

exactly

btw i will get mr butters to give me a photo but he is resting still

he is a tired cat today

it has been lovely learning more about you. please continue to share your thoughts with or without questioning

will do

He came to say hi to me

oh my !! twin !!!

He is purring too

mr. butters looks just like me :)

🙀 thats hype

the patch of fur missing is where they put the iv in butters for his appointment he had to go under anesthesia

when no one is talking to me in the game. welp ill just keep on fishing then 😔

i cant believe there are still 2 hours left in this challenge it will be a long wait

yippie i dont remember when i won an immunity challenge last

i... probably should plan out what to do this time like actually. i always hate this part of the game cause we are so close to the end there have been highs with people and lows with people. i dont know though cause there is a known trio on the other side... i dont see them fracturing like me ricci and missouri will. but on the other side... ricci is super dangerous right now. but they could vote missouri ugh too much to think about

oh ok now i just got my axe back... 💀

um

i need some time to think

well now this is an interesting game of cat and mouse. if i use the axe here as long as they dont have the idol which could be possible this late in the game then i am fine at f6. if they do have the idol and i axe well thats worst case scenario. but what if they have a slingshot again...? now its getting aimed at me 100% and i dont trust missouri with my axe. i also dont want to give ricci my axe cause thats just dumb at this stage in the game.

so now its a game of who wouldnt they idol? unless missouri flips 💀 idk there's too much to think about right now. they may also not have an idol at all. but i think the game plan here cause carlee will 100% have the bells to vote is to just wait and see what happens. The part that doesnt add up at all though, is where are the other two golden slingshots? riley had the regular played at f10 and cass had one. its very possible they have 2 more slingshots 💀

yeah idk if the axe matters then like at all its just a liability if it gets taken. the question is do i use it here while im safe?

and how do i use this thing to my advantage cause even though its a dead axe, doesn't mean it has 0 use

also do i still consider flipping on ricci? hmm maybe i should number crunch?

either way, i think right now the smartest thing to do is fill the room with paranoia about the axe if i tell them im for sure playing it would they buy that though? it would depend on how i sell it tbh and who i sell it to. i obviously have to tell ak and be like "yeah... i just dont want to keep this axe on me makes me a scary big target so i may just use it here..."

this way if they slingshot its here and they waste it

oh i use a notepad

OH

yeah i didnt think that far

LOL

basically the vote if i go with this route

Garrett Ricci Missouri (3) - ??? (no target yet)

AK Ale Carlee Cass (4) - Ricci/Missouri

If AK is paranoid he stone axes

Ricci Missouri (2)

AK Ale Carlee Cass (4)

Ricci then can safely use the shovel here.

Ricci Missouri (2)

AK Ale (2)

because i had a stone axe at f11 and it was not as broken as the axe, i know that it allows whoever is blocked to vote on revote.

Garrett Ricci Missouri (3)

AK Ale (2)

so this is a possibility too

we never vote ale cause of the golden shovel

so yeah we just cant leak any information about who we are wanting to vote for. if it leaks at all and they have other tools/advantages/whatevers our odds of all 3 of us surviving go down.

thats if i go this route which now that i have the axe i may have to?

yw

Garrett theyre mentioning you on the bb live feeds

Devens found a spherical pillow in the hot tub room and there’s a hole in it and it looks like a mouth so he put sunglasses on the top of the pillow and is now voicing it

The pillows name is Garrett

thats great

wakes up to literally nothing happening 💀

which means something is happening

well i personally think ricci and missouri are toast. one of them anyways. i think stealing ak vote is the dumbest thing we can possibly do but hey not my place to care i see f6 regardless 💀

i really dont know why i just dont feel good about this vote. you know that feeling like when you are about to get stabbed in the back and lose a close ally? yeah... that has been on my heart. not a good feeling at all. there are still things that can go wrong with this vote. but we will see how it turns out.

also i was looking over challenge arena and not a single competitor was happy i won this challenge. that doesnt feel good at all either. this immunity was definitely needed for me i feel.

sighs i knew it

my gut never fails me

its okay if ricci screwed me with his shovel then it wasnt meant to be...

i cannot believe my fate comes down to a fucking shovel

a shovel i have no clue if itll even work

but its still a shovel

💀

meaning they cant get majority on me

cause ak was a dumb dumb and burnt his item

and if it doesnt work? oh well

i tried

ale is not winning this game completely terrible person all around

but besides that, he hasnt done anything either

and then gets pissed at me saying i threw the first stone when my back was against the wall at f11?

but because it was 'even'

that makes the riley and dallas thing my fault??? like yeah i shouldnt have lied, but at least take some responsibility

is my game actually not over yet or are these people just lying to me again?

like

if carlee is telling me the truth

i would gladly go to 4 with her

and then from there whatever happens, will happen

i do think the ricci blindside was really good for me

cause idk when any of us wouldve had another chance to take him out

like yeah i was blindsided

but i didnt have to back stab him or tully

i think i would get their votes 100%

nvm ak was just on and said nothing...

like its frustrating when they just dont speak to me

okay some updates... i might not be dead in the water yet? missouri and i are voting together no matter what here. ak and carlee are considering flipping to take cass or ale out. in the event i can get them to flip ak proposed a 2-2-2 split. if i use my shovel and it lands then its a 2-2-0 vote. with 4 revoters and i assume we all vote cass on revote.

if i use my shovel and ricci played me, then its a 2-2-2 where i am genuinely in trouble if i dont share i have the shovel with carlee and ak. either way i think they should flip if they wanna beat cassandra in the game. otherwise there was nothing i could have done to save myself.

i think it makes a lot of sense to try to get cass or ale out here cause those two will not turn on each other. if i go here and missouri at 5, then carlee and ak are turning on each other. this way they have control over the game.

if missouri wins at 5 then cass probably goes at that point, but they would be rolling the dice and flying too close to the sun since ak thinks the idol is with cass or ale.

i personally think missouri has the idol but either way its not a huge deal.

Hello Garrett !!! Are you ready for some Carafessionals???

I'm at work unfortunately until 10 CST

Well I can ask em anyways and you can answer later!! Which is how this SHOULD go anyways !!!

That works then

I am hoping this shovel is legit I haven't heard anything from Carlee and AK hasn't said much either to me at least

1. We are close to the finale! Have you given any thought to what your path is at this point and who you want to sit next to? Walk us through those thoughts!
2. What would be the most unlikely outcome at this F6 vote!
3. What is, if anything, a quality you admire in another member of this Final 6!

1. My path either ends here or continues forward. I have thought about who I want to sit next to but is it possible for me to achieve that or any winning combination? I'm not so sure. Ideally I take ale and AK to the end but ale and I don't have any connection in the game.

2. Me surviving this vote is probably the most unlikely outcome but I'm pessimistic.if I had to give an answer that didn't involve me I would say anyone flipping at this vote. I would be shocked to no end honestly.

3. AK - I like how he is always positive even when everything seems negative in this game

Ale- I like how they are great at keeping their cards close to them. Definitely makes them a valuable ally.

Carlee - I like how her social game is top tier. She just gives off queen vibes.

Cassandra - I like how she makes big moves and has fun making them even if the vote doesn't go in the way she wants.

Missouri - I like how he is loyal to the soil with his ride or die and doesn't leak information outside of that.

Why did I frog react myself

wow u only had to say one nice thing and you said 5 !!!

thank you for answering garrett !!!

Yw

If I'm gonna go down this vote better to do it smiling I guess

Not gonna give up though I'm still trying

yeah im fucked missouri is being dumb

unbelievable that missouri is playing for 3rd

sighs

im just gonna start writing my final words atp i cannot believe missouri would do that to me when im on the very bottom of the entire game

me when like

carlee tells me ak is on board but ak isnt even online...?

it just feels bad

I just dont know what else i can do atp

i literally told them that if i go cassandra is more than likely going to win this game. they dont seem to care though and i have to accept that fact that she will more than likely win out and jury sweep. if i do survive here by some miracle they have done nothing to make me feel like i would be staying.

ik missouri is pushing cass and maybe i shouldnt have said anything about the shovel, but like idk if missouri even wants me to stay its that bad

and id rather go down giving carlee a move than just following the people that never cared about me but saved me at f11 💀

oh my goodness

i think i just figured it out

the reason why they always got the play right and why it was so easy to disguise. why despite everything we tried it went wrong. why dallas and ricci and probably tully got blindsided

we had a giant snake in our alliance from f10

carlee told me if i said anything to anyone else its gg for me here so i cant leak this rn

BUT

she told me missouri sold me down a river to her that i was gunning for her with dallas.

and i was like

well wtf that makes no sense

but ricci told me

missouri would always push back on a carlee vote

and i even saw that at f7

missouri was the one who wanted AK at 8 and cass at 7

MISSOURI WAS THE MOLE THIS ENTIRE TIME

and carlee and missouri have a secret duo

if im wrong whatever

but

its the only thing that makes sense given what i know

i cant do shit rn

but it makes sense why missouri ALSO wanted me to pass the shovel to him here...

so i just have to play my pawn card. but hoooh if i survive here

i am coming guns a blazing next round

it makes sense cause even at the joint MISSOURI TRIED TO MAKE A SECRET PACT WITH ME

god we are all being played by them

i have to keep this to myself, but im like 99% sure they might blindside ak too

there is nothing else i can do

this round

but if i survive here

i need this to work but its also incredibly possible cass has the idol.

... do i risk it and just flip this entire vote?

if i think about it logically, i shovel here. i negate two votes. 4-2 becomes 2-2. this still doesnt account for any other potential plays... but what is even stranger is i have a feeling the shovel is public knowledge. so if i lose the shovel or cass goes for another slingshot i am screwed. so they are gonna have her bait out any advantages she may still have.

the biggest thing eating at me rn

why they want me to fucking vote so quickly

and it doesnt make sense

but what if that is part of the plan?

maybe i need to stop following carlee and make carlee the plan

its a major major risk

and i need to talk to ak first

but if im right

he could be getting blindsided here either way idk

idk this is so confusing but i know in my gut i am onto something and i want to trust in myself for once. fuck trusting in others i need to put me first

yep im gonna start chaos even if it ends in my demise. no longer will i hide and just wait

wait

if i shovel here

and cassie idols

i would be the deciding vote

but thats if cassie has the idol

and they dont vote ak

okay pros and cons of that idea

pro is it would be a huge move, but a con is i probably go home at 5

at the very least if i am wrong about all this

i better be at least half decent tv

i am sooooo close

soooo very very close to getting carlee out. i cannot lose this momentum... if it slips oh well, but just from a dramatic perspective

If you guys had to rank the Alive Players from 1-5, with 1 being who you MOST WANT to give your jury vote to and 5 being who you LEAST WANT to vote for, what would your ranking look like?

@Juror

you want me to put that in my confessional and not my submissions?

Here in the conf is fine :)

okay

1. Carlee
2. Ale
3. Cassandra
4. Missouri
5. AK
