Survivor Athena: Hogsmeade

I am SO SAD :( :( :( I can't believe Alex outsmarted me AGAIN, i hope he is the next to go so i can tease him.  I'm really rooting for Anna and Madison to win but all in all it was a really fun game and I'm SO glad I had a chance to be a part of it! <3

I really should have kept my vote Anna, huh?  

SHE BETTER WIN THIS GAME!!  I swear I am SO hurt right now that Alex did that.   I wish Elmo would have tied it so it would have gone to rocks or so it would have scared Alex and Stephen enough to change their vote. I'm sorry for the spam confessionals.

So it all went well, the vote was split Anna-Ruthie, and Ruthie went on the revote. Now Annas angry but I think I can convince her that it wasn’t an attack on her and I do want to take her to the end.

Alex has tried to turn Anna against me but surprise bitch i have receipts (well copy-pastes because we cant use receipts). And now Anna sees that it wasn't me evilly in the corner excluding, it was a joint move.

im so scared of alex convincing anna and stephen to boot me like he's amazing at talking to people and he definitely could do that and that would mean bye bye Elmo. Hats off to King Alex S <3 I love him to pieces

Me watching the “get out ftc threats” train looking at alex knowing full well it'll be me or anna next in line: https://78.media.tumblr.com/7544457920da87e2b1124d923442a3e3/tumblr_inline_p678uaK13U1sdkexy_500.png

idk if that link worked of if people will even relate to the emotion it expresses but w/e. Anywho Alex is definitely next, things worked out well in that I didn’t have to do any work with except let her know I’m behind her 100% If this all works well and Madison and Elmo dont vote with Alex who is undoubtedly trying to vote me out I can gun for Elmo next. Besides not being able to get Madison and Anna not to vote me out instead of Elmo my biggest concern is a final immunity challenge, where who knows what could happen.

So elmo had a power that let him talk to a jury member, he talked to Olivia and found out me and Ruthie were the biggest threats to win... while yes that makes me feel very happy about my game and i've def proven that i'm a fuckin beast it also sucks bc i kNOW if i didn't win immunity i'd be gone and same with until the rest of this game.... 

obviously i know that i need immunity streaks to get to the end so why would i keep alex s who has beat me almost every time lol Madison Alex is really trying to fool me into not voting for him tonight! Little does he know I DONT CARE ABOUT WINNING!

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1AXOIUHNbBn

Oh my god the tension is killing me. Now that we know theres only one round till ftc everyone feels very on edge, because we are all trying to judge who we should take to the end. It is a risk voting out Anna as its a huge betrayal, and taking the likable elmo is a bit worrying, but i think Anna would win against anyone at ftc now, and she has to go. I guess I just have to hope people can see that while I played loyally for most of the game the last few rounds called for something different.

So i just finished the final immunity challenge and i got 17 minutes.... i think thats pretty good and i know if i lost then im gonna go home BUT regardless, i had so much fun playing this game. it honestly was such a breath of fresh air compared to what im used to in orgs. the hosting was impeccable, the challenges were literally so much fun and i really LOVE this community. thank you for casting me you guys, this is one of the best org experiences i have ever had and i hope to play more with these people in the future.

im just really proud of myself because coming into this game i was like "ok im gonna play different" and i really did. i usually don't hold back and go all out balls out physically and let my social/strategic game fall to the back burner but this game my social was ON POINT. i got to know so many people, was in 2 controlling alliances and just overall fuckin killed it. even if i don't win i know i played a winners game and i can sleep happy with knowing that!!

but i really wanna fuckin win haha

Its almost certainly me or Anna tonight, there are only three very unlikely scenarios that would stop that: Anna wins immunity at its a tie breaker between me and Elmo and I win; Anna wins immunity and votes with me and Madison against Elmo; Anna doesn’t win immunity and wins a tiebreaker against Elmo/Madison. More likely than not it will be Elmo and Madisons choice which of us goes home if neither of us win immunity, but god I hope I do. This may sound overly confident but without Anna there I think I’ll win this game, with Anna I still have a chance but who knows. A tiebreaker would be good for my resume but im not really a challenge beast.

ONE DAY I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL WIN A DAMN INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY!!!! But yeah I’m pissed because not only did I not win immunity but Anna won, so now I have to hope shes either stupid enough to keep me or I somehow win a tie breaker. And as is clear now I suck at challenges

I WON FINAL IMMUNITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FTC HERE I COME!! I'm so relieved I could CRY

https://vocaroo.com/i/s19CFSgR4obc

https://youtu.be/MuxtX1hPBAk

im about to go to the final tribal council and im beyond nervous. im just hoping that i get my message across and that people really see that i deserve to win this game because I DO. i played the best game hands down and idk i just don't want ppl to vote for who they like the most bc then elmo wins...... we'll see i have so much irl stuff going on i just wanna win lol

So this is it. We’ve done our FTC and it’s all in the jurors hands now. The jurors who all seem to like Elmo a lot more than me, the jurors who have 2 of them as inactives, the jurors who just don’t seem like they are going to vote me to win. To say I’m feeling defeated is an understatement. I personally do believe that I played the best game, sure I pissed some people off but this is Survivor… sometimes the moves I make aren’t gonna make you happy. I went to every tribal council, breaking Athena HISTORY, and only received 3 votes to evict. I voted in the majority every time except once. I won 3 individual immunities. I worked my ass off to win this game and losing is going to be one of the biggest defeats I will have faced since the last time I got second. I just want to win so bad. I’ve worked SO hard and I want to get 1st. I think my FTC was amazing and what I said was great. I was honest, articulate and CONVINCING. I think that if I didn’t get through to the jury and they don’t vote me to win then that’s not on me anymore. At this point it’s either you are voting for someone who annihilated the game and strategically, physically and socially dominated or you’re voting for someone you LIKE. And if you are a juror who votes for your friends or someone who you think is nice then you shouldn’t be playing orgs. You should vote for the person who deserves the win and played the best game. If you don’t do that then what are you doing and why are you playing? This isn’t a game of “Best friends” its a game of SURVIVOR. 

I’m just so irritated and I wanna win so bad and like sure, if I played a bad game and wasn’t deserving I wouldn’t be so upset but I freaking DESERVE THIS. Second will hurt me so bad and I know that’s what I’m going to get.

RUTHIE IS A FUCKING SAV. She literally took Madisons vote and used it to vote Madison. I don't care if that wasn't intentional but I LOVED IT. I actually like snorted when that happened. I'm sorry I know everyones a huge Madison fan but she tried to call me out tonight in the hangout........ with her answer she said "the people who voted me for that haven't tried with me" like I did try with you honey, I gave up because pre-merge you didn't talk to me and acted like you were better then me so why would i continue to takl to someone who doesn't wanna talk to me.........

don't cAll me out. im the villain of the season HUNTY

ALSO ELMO AND I ARE THE ONLY ONES LEFT WHO HAVE 0 VOTES AGAINST!!!!!!!!!

I’d love to be able to say “I’m going to lay low, make it through this round and break my record” but it is definitely time to start worrying about ftc and big threats have got to go. Could this destabilise the game and put me in danger? Yes. But would I be happier being second runner-up because I let Anna take me to the end? No. I’m here to either get to ftc a winner or die trying, and that means voting out Anna at the next tribal.

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1IPe2TnD4vP

I'm taking a thirty second butterbeer break to say that i feel like i've been DRINKING them rather than serving them Oh my GOD okay maybe i can type straight now

break number two and i feel almost DIZZY from all this typing i keep feeling like i type the wrong thing when it's fine AHH i need to keep going i want to WIN this

i'm finally done and hmy hand is DEADthat was so hard, i hope that my hard work pays off and i hope that making confessionals inbetween doesn't harm me.  

also i'm really thinking that if i'm immune i need to talk madison and elmo into getting alex out. i may lose his vote but i REALLY want to win and i feel like he needs to go for that to happen. 

god i fucking love elmo so much. i get to talk to him today bc he is using the Resurrection stone on me and i couldnt be more stoked. if he doesn't win then i probably want aleks to win after him. 

ALEX IS SUCH A SHOW OFF, I CAN'T RIGHT NOW LOL.  UGH HOW DID HE DO SO GOOD, I AM SO JEALOUS OF HIS TYPING SKILLS. I'm trying not to be bitter about it but UGH if he would have messed up that immunity necklace would have been mine :( :( :( :( :( 

My plans are to stick with my final four and vote out one of Madison or Elmo.. hopefully not Elmo BUT Madison is gonna be soooo easy to beat at FTC and the whole jury loves the cow!! So idk!

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1wTR4QwIEuZ

i sure am scared about this tribal, yikes! If I get idoled out i'm gonna cry, laugh & scream at the same time. 

I also can't believe that my game is depedent on someone who flipped on me 2 rounds ago fsdgdgh UGH!! 

So I’m waiting for Elmo to respond. I’m planning on maybe.... flipping. I worry about my spot in the four and I think it would be smart to go for Stephen/Anna THEN go for Alex/Elmo or Madison. I want to play all sides so I can maybe score some jury votes.. I also need to win something 

So its all go on the plan to vote out Ruthie, Alexhas agreed its for the best now we just need Elmo and Madison on board. We are considering telling Anna, but it is a risk. Anna always makes me feel guilty saying I’m her number one but in the end she's a big ftc threat in my opinion, even if she is unpopular.

this is the week I go from invisible to running the game. I’ve decided. 

I really thought I was at high risk for getting voted out this week, but here I am running this vote with Elmo. 

we had a grande plan to vote out Ruthie and we thought everything was a-okay because that meant we were safe, but then RUTHIE came to us saying she wanted to flip because she’s playing for 4th. little does she know she’s playing for 6th. I’m still unsure what we’re actually going to do. I will keep you posted.

I'm so torn. I want to change the game and work with Elmo and Madison but they aren't talking to me in our group chat and now I'm thinking that it's not worth risking it. 

Also I don't wanna face Anna's wrath, SHE CAN BE SCARY!!  

ELMO IS PULLING A MADISON IN HIMALAYAS STYLE MOVE I THINK THIS IS GONNA END BADLY HES LYING ABOUT AN IDOL

apparently I didn't confessional this round SO short version: hi, we're blindsiding ruthie because she is BIG THREAT and I am PLAYING BOTH SIDES ALWAYS

anyway we love to play the middle okay more later SORRY I AM BAD

elmo just told me he's voting me which is kinda dumb and stupid and i hope he goes home

I FEEL SO GUILTY SLJLFSDJF. I told Alex that I told Madison and Elmo I was voting with them but I am NOT! but I'm still thinking I might! AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! 

I have such a headache someone please tell me what to do! Anyway, I don't think I'm voting with Elmo, he just told Alex that I had an idol and I'm like, WHAT??  If I had an idol I would have told Alex.  but now I'm really irritated and I hope Elmo goes after all UGH

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1HzgK3O4mnC

f8 tribal + moving forward + other stuff!

I'm so scared for immunity. I hope that Elmo or I win so that we have at least some sort of power. I'm worried that I'm being lied to, and I heard the Stephen sees me as a threat... I just hope everything works out.

Either Elmo is really messy or he’s a really honest, stupidly so no offense. Last round he tells me outright the vote is me/Olivia, and he’s voting me out. Okay. Then Olivias voted out and he’s all “just remember I’m a spare vote if you want one :)” Okay. Idk, I’ve got a good alliance, but I am worried about what happens at f5/4. I think my best plan is to vote out Joanna then Elmo, then hope Madison and Anna stick with me, maybe even Alex too. When it comes to FTC that f3 would show my loyalty as well as my strategy. If it comes down to f2 though who knows. Anyway thats my master plan atm.

So I am, according to touchy subjects

1) The most honest (along with Elmo)

2) The most likely to make the Quidditch Team in my first year

3) Getting voted out next

Guess I gotta hope that the 3rd one isn't true.

I hate Touchy Subjects... my feelings are legit hurt over the ones I got. 

Best Liar

Running the Game

Thinks they are running the game

Villain of the season

Wish would shut up

Most likely to be caught playing both sides

Least affected by a dementor

My name appeared 31 times on peoples lists.... None of those are nice. Not one single one. Idk, I'm feeling horribly defeated because I thought I was playing a really good game and now I just feel like I'm going to be the next boot.. I didn't know everyone hated me so much.

ok, after complaining to about 7 of my friends, I am going to EMBRACE MY VILLAIN ROLE. and bitch I AM RUNNING THE GAME OK? I orchestrated the Alex C vote out AND the Olivia one. I have voted in the majority each time and not lied to anyone while doing so. If that makes me a good liar and a villain then SO BE IT.

upcoming tribal + ruthie the unexpected threat + touchy subjects + a lil bit of anna and alex s

https://youtu.be/f8j_gLBl0Z8

I have a bad feeling about tonight

I feel so confident I’m staying and that is NEVER good, maybe I shouldn’t be feeling this confident right now.  I still have no idea how I’m going to vote. 

me: spends the day trying to get the vote turned on Ruthie

me: is probably getting voted out for it

whatever

If Alex S or Anna win this game I'm gonna be PISSED because I CALLED IT.; I'm gonna vote Ruthie and I'm not gonna be happy about it!

HI WELCOME TO THE PREVIEW OF THE CRACKED MADNESS THAT'S ABOUT TO GO DOWN

So Madison, Joanna and Elmo are all voting Ruthie.  Stephen, Anna and Ruthie are all voting Joanna.

Ruthie is also going to steal Joanna's vote.

I am going to tell Elmo and Madison this in approximately ten minutes.  Or, alternatively, I will not, and I will suck up to Ruthie later.  We'll see!

Tribals have worked like too well. I feel like things need to blow up in my face soon or something, because everything is working very well. Unanimous votes can't lost forever. 

bye Alex C! you say being a slytherin makes it so you can spot the snakes but i'm a hufflepuff and spotted you weeks ago!

Hi, I haven't tried the challenge. It seems really cool and I hope I know what I am doing. I also really really really really hope that it is a final 3 and that me, Olivia and Elmo can get there together. I love Alex S to death, but I've been with those guys since the beginning and I adore them! I hope everything works out in my favor, having the numbers is considerably less stressful then being in the minority.

this conf's a mess!

Paul Friedrich Christian von Buri (1 June 1860 – 7 August 1922) was a German diplomat who served as the Consul-General for Australia and in Shanghai.

~MY CRACKEDT THOUGHTS ABOUT THE VOTE~

I've been thinking a lot

like why does anna want ppl who she was working w on tribe swap out

and then it kinda clicked??? like im not even 100% sure but if im right i woudlnt be surprised

i rly think that theres OG Zonko alliance

so that woulf be an alliance of 4 ugh

hdzbfbdf

im still confused about OLIVIA

that girl is too damn sneaky

i wonder if ppl r voting for me

im gonna have to talk to joanna

and suss out olivia

and like alex s' response to my Q in our alliancr chat was like so bs jrjskfj "i just assumed it would be madison" like what???

y'all this is a mystery

and im gonna be SHERLOCK HOLMES hopefully.

oh i also forgot to say another thing why i think theres alliance of zonkos

like why would anna throw ppl utb who she worked with in SWAPPED TRIBES!!!!

ill make this a conf when im on computer

ok me when i just now remembered that alex is immune i hate life

he woulda been the ideal target n i think easiest one to flip the votes on

another thing about olivia is that she defo isn't afraid to make ton of alliances so kensng

watch me just overthink this LMAOO jfjzc

ok well

id rather get 8th knowing that i tried to make a move to swing the power in my favor than 4th/2nd runner up by not doing anything know that

[10.49.36] Elmo: ik its like 4am for u rn but would u call me crazy if i thought there was an OG Zonko alliance jsdbsbbfb [13.17.36] Joanna: i guess it’s a possibility idk

joanna rly

https://youtu.be/4aaCxG8JAF4

this is ten minutes of nonsense

https://vocaroo.com/i/s0KxpPC3cWOo

upcoming vote + bunch of other things + rambling about survivor lol

Haha my preemptive strike alliance worked! I had a feeling I would be the next target, Alex C was a threat, and in _some peoples_ eyes I am too. But the alliance I have with Alex S Anna and Ruthie feels very solid, and we’re all big threats tbh which means we won’t start voting each other out until f6 at least. For this vote we can split the votes and bet on someone flipping, or try and pull Madison. Either way I’m safe because I trust my alliance to stick with me in a revote and I’d be immune to rocks.

I think.... Alex S and I are going to flip on Olivia and Elmo...  I'm really scared, I feel like this is going to hurt Olivia's feelings but she is SUCH a threat and don't even get me started on Elmo, he is too.  But seriously, if we do this right I could be in SUCH a great spot.  I'm not a challenge beast or anything but I'm kind of tight with everyone but Joanna and Madison so I just really feel like I've placed myself in a good position.  

This could ruin my relationship with Elmo but on the bright side... I think they will all come for Alex before they come for me heh heh, also I just have these feels that Alex has the idol. 

so this vote is gonna be a little more complicated, i have my alliance with the OG Zonko and i love each of them. stephen is a target and so is olivia. i think it might tie tonight but who knows!!! all i know is im not voting stephen because he is one of my favorite people in the game, his loyalty so far has been on point!

I’m being extra nice to my allaince in case they’re tempted to betray me. And so if they do they receive Maximum Guilt and I receive Maximum Retribution come ftc/their vote out.

Pretty sure I’m going tonight which like bums me the fuck out but that’s the game I guess. Alex s ain’t getting my jury vote lmao 

I'm worried about people flipping and Olivia getting voted out. I adore that girl and I want to make it to the end with her and Elmo and it would really suck to see her go. People I am most worried about currently: Alex, because he mentioned to Olivia that he thinks that I am a threat to win and he told me that Olivia is a threat to win and would want to get her out, Anna because I know she is working with Stephen and that she doesn't want him to go and could possibly flip and get one of us out, Stephen because he is working with Anna and could work with her to get one of us out, Madison because she could team up with Stephen and Anna and they could possibly sway Alex and get one of us out. So pretty much I am really worried about tribal and I wish that Olivia has an idol or something. Or I do. Or preferably, we both do, but alas, that is not the case.

I LOVE this challege, I either do really good or really bad at it, once I WON this in something so I'm really hoping I can win it now, I live for this kind of challenge.  FINGERS CROSSED!!!

Flawless vote out. Not i gotta solve a word puzzle......... I am bad at words

After a long week I've decided to get voted out next tribal I'm too busy to do challenges but I'm still going on the jury

Okay, so Olivia just had a crazy idea. Kevin approached her and Elmo saying that he wanted to be voted out next.  But Olivia was like "hey what if we don't vote Kevin and vote Alex C and then get out 2 birds with one stone, cause Kevin may drop out or strike out". So crazy plan that might just work. Don't know if we are going to go through with it, still have people to talk to, but this might be the best move.

https://vocaroo.com/i/s0XxTJveWxHT

thoughts about kevin wanting to get voted out + what do i need to do

I’m sad that Kevin walked but I mean I should be happy that makes it easier for ME! Also Anna and I can’t  wait to see the Alex’s go after one another, heh heh JoannaI am bad at anagrams. This is what I have learned. So, not shocked, tbh. I can't see words in letters. 

I WON IMMUNITY! OMG I'm so happy, I worked pretty hard on this challenge because I find challenges like this really fun.. May I just say, my darling hosts I know people aren't giving you the effort you deserve BUT I am having sooo much fun playing this game. Every challenge I've enjoyed and have CHALLENGED me which I love, ya'll are a dream come true and 2 amazing people that I'm happy to call my friends after this game!! 

I'm just really proud of myself for winning this immunity because idk I always doubt myself with how "smart" I am and this was a puzzle challenge with letters and numbers and I usually lose those against someone "smarter" then me on Epicmafia. It's just really nice to try hard for something and win it!! I'm def patting myself on the back right now and I'm sooo elated that I won!!!!

this vote makes me uncomfortable

why did u leave kevin i miss u :(

stephen has to go

i want him to go 

but other ppl want alex c, that's fine too

but i'd rather have stephen gone!! 

im gonna pitch it with joanna tbh and see what happens

also create a 5 man alliance between ruthie, alex  s, myself, joanna and olivia

i do love a great majority (-:

Well I had a genius plan of not voting Kevin and voting alex c instead bc everyone would expect Kevin and then Kevin went ahead and quit anyways  after telling us all to vote him and somehow gets to stay on the jury so that plan is fucked. Ruthie, alex s, Joanna, Elmo, and myself are all voting together and that’s a majority right there. The problem is Anna because I don’t trust her but Joanna wants to and she so clearly wants to be trusted but I have a really bad feeling that if we tell her the plan she will run straight to the others and an idol will be played. 

https://vocaroo.com/i/s0jfnFvVjiiY

this conff is such a mess omg

Wtf Anna 

I am orchestrating this vote since everyone is being quiet and wishy washy. The names going around were Madison, Stephen and Alex C. So I took Alex C's name and ran with it. Everyone is on board and we will be splitting it 5-2, Elmo and Joanna will vote Madison and everyone else is on Alex C. Hopefully this works out!!!

Wtf Anna 

Anna in her big swively chair:

This is just too fucking easy look at all these sheeple muahhahahahahahhaha

https://vocaroo.com/i/s0kVWEqJenxO

THIS VOTE IS A MESS YALL

So I go to bed with having no ideas about what the vote would be, but a sneaking suspicion that Alex and Madison weren’t being decisive or smart enough to keep control of the game. And I was right. I wake up to Anna telling me she’s heard Madisons name, Alex Cs name, and even my name. We eventually agreed that we should be voting out Alex C, and then she talking about splitting votes and now thats ringing alarm bells. If she’s trying to get Alex C to vote Madison, how do I know this isn’t a ploy to get my to vote against my one chance of surviving. I was content to play loyally and with alliances but now Annas poked the bear (haha I managed to fit a quasi-gay joke into a dramatic confessional) and whether or not she is being legitimate I’m ready to do something...potentially game destroying.

Okay so I keep feeling bad for not being super active but then when I try to step up my game I realize no one responds or gives a single fuck about it either so like. I guess I feel a little better? But also no one else seems to have much of an excuse so like...go off I guess? 

I will recount the tale of the fall of Rainbow Rumpus Partytown: Anna betrayed the Madison Alex C and I by trying to vote someone out. I betrayed Anna by telling Alex C and Madison. Now Alex C has betrayed me and Madison by saying he’ll vote Madison to save his ass. Geez that was a lot of betrayal for one morning.

THE HECK IS GOING ON. I don't trust anyone they are all SUPER shady, I'm debating whether I should go search for the idol for fun or not. 

Listen I'm just getting home only to find that Anna is a lyin' bitch. Like she's acting like Madison's going home when I'm being told it 's 5-2-2 me. Like ??????? just because you have immunity doesn't mean your safe for 5 years hunny.

So now I gotta panic and that's just another stress to add on woo

So Alex C willed me the Marauders Map in case he doesn’t survive tribal. Which he won’t because I’m going to vote him out. Oops. But he said it was “worthless” but it lets me see how many alliances someone is in!!! That is so useful! And of course the first thing I did was look at Anna, and it said she is in only one alliance, meaning she isn’t backstabbing us as badly as I thought. I feel a lot better about voting Alex C out now than I did a few minutes ago. Thanks Alex!

Help me I can't stop my cracked side from coming out and it's killing me

Okay so somehow, the foursome finally managed to agree on finally targeting Alex C.  Even with having lost Kevin, we're doing okay.  And, even better, Joanna and Anna are on board.

So, uh...what if that didn't happen?

Here is the thing: I don't know if my ideal F7 includes the foursome and Anna/Joanna/Stephen.  Because I might be the biggest target there, and I don't want to go to the finals with two of Ruthie/Elmo/Olivia.  One, at best, preferrably.  But I also don't know if I have the votes right now at that 7 to do what I want.

So..what if I pulled in two votes from the two people on the outs?  Wouldn't be the first time I've done it.  But is it worth it?  Who knows!  We might find out, I honestly haven't decided and it's only an hour until tribal!

It’ll probably be me tonight because someone will play an idol on alex c rip

If they do I’m gonna be so angry 

GAAAA this is literally last minute but I just can't be the only one who flips, I'm sorry other Alex

If I thought anybody else would join me; Anna, Joanna, Ruthie, I'd do it in a heartbeat, but I'm too well set up to burn it all to the ground this early in the merge.

SOSOSOSSO, little ol Alex C tried to play a game that I can play so much better. We have that alliance still from swap Rosemerta and obv everyone is trying to get Alex C out so I was just giving them what they wanted and they basically baited me to say I'd vote Olivia. Alex C went to Olivia and told her I threw her name out, Stephen told me that he did that. I then went to Olivia and told her what really happened and hopefully worked that out with her.

ALEX C WHO U THINK U FUCKIN WITHHHHHHHH?!?!?!!?!? 

ALEX S. DON'T FAIL THE ALEXS I SWEAR

PLEASE ACTUALLY PULL OFF A 4-3-2 VOTE

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited to have gotten to merge omg, I honestly fought my little butt off during pre-merge to not go home... I mean i went to EVERY tribal. Hopefully I can get some W's under my belt and just get this show on the road!!

Alex C gonna get punted so hard I hate this bitch. Voted out two of my closest friends and betrayed them. Madison too but she’s barely around but she still did it. 

Without Lukas what will I do? Joanna Elmo and me have to make it to the end I love them so much and we gotta avenge Sammy and Lukas. 

Through all the sadness though there is a silver lining and that’s that I’m reunited with Joanna <3 

This merge saved my ass. I'm back with people I trust and no longer feel like I have to cry. Stress has been lifted off my shoulders. I miss Lukas and Sammy, but I am super happy to be reunited with Olivia and Elmo. <3

I had no idea it was merge already!!! What a night!!! God this makes me so fuckin anxious lmfao I really hope this goes well

Amanda: your dogs are really cute.

Emily: if you have pets, send me snaps. I love pet snaps.

Olivia is my queen.

Elmo is amazing.

I have a headache.

I want to punt alex c into the moon not alex s just in case i didn’t clarify

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1zaem0esyuv

merge confessional, potential sides??

(when i mentioned an alliance with Alex, Ruthie, Olivia and Myself. I obviously meant Alex S)

I forgot to add that these ppl who are in the middle and capable of flipping things around are scary as heck tbh they are the people im most afraid of in this game because like they are not loyal to anyone and are so strategically savvy. I defo need to keep eye out for them! People who I could see potentially be players like that are Madison (I'm pretty sure she already is) and Kylie if she becomes a bit more active

Why the FUCK did we merge and not have a music video challenge.

YOU TWO ARE LIKE THE MOST MUSIC-LOVING PEOPLE I KNOW

I'm on a strike

Welp it's merge time! This is going to be fun :3

So what would be ideal from this point on for me would be an amalgamation of my two major alliances. The two Alexs Madison Ruthie Anna and I. But idk how the og rosmertas would feel about such a zonko heavy group, so I may have to propose a 3-3 split, meaning someone would be left out (hopefully not me). For now though I’m just going to make it clear I’m open to continuing old alliances because you never know when a new opportunity will come and punch you in the face.

about my position + ppl not wanting to talk to me + general + what could happen in the first merge vote + probably other things i forgot to mention here

I can’t wait to sneak my way to the end of this game.

https://youtu.be/HWGKWoBW_QA

I was 2nd place..... 

sad.

I need to be better in challenges! Highkey getting 2nd might put a target on my back too but oh wellll

First of all I’m sorry for not confessing more

Secondly I hope it really is Kylie tonight that seems to be the plan with my two alliances 

One with Joanna and Elmo 

The other with Elmo, Alex s, and Ruthie. That’s only 5/11 so hopefully we can get Kevin onboard 

IM A FUCKIN PSYCHICCCC, are we allowed to curse in these sorry if not lmao WELL literally the day we merged i was takling to elmo and was saying how there is def gonna be an alex v alex rumble soon because they are legit the same person, like they have the same personality, think they are alpha dogs running the show so ofc they are gonna take eachother out. legit its dom and chris from ghost island... and plus when i was on call with alex c after we lost that harry potter video challenge thing, he was the first one to talk about how alex s was annoying during the hangout....... so YESTERDAY i messaged alex s and we were talking and he was like, im worried alex c is gonna come after me and i was like omg i dont know anything yet but i wouldnt be surprised... and THEN i messaged alex c and he was like ya i wanna go for alex s!!!!!!!!!!!!! so i talked him out of that bc its too early for that rn and im kinda playing both of them.. we love queens who play in the middle lmao

also elmo is one of my closest friends from epicmafia and i don't think ppl know that yet. maybe they do idk haha but its rly nice to have that trust there.. a little bit nervous because i did give him 4th place in EMVivor 3... i don't think he would use old games against me but who knows?!

So Alex C won, which kinda sucks cause I kinda wanted him gone. But we are going to go after an inactive is seems, and the consensus seems to be Kylie. Hopefully nobody has been lying to me and Kylie actually goes home. I don't think I could handle another friend going home :(

So just a couple of quick updates because I am very busy today:

1) So far I am the only one I know of who has searched for the Idol on this tribe, love to make my target as large as possible

2) IDIOTS, SEARCH FOR THE IDOL, STUPID-ASSES

3) The initial vote proposed was Kevin, because people want to target inactive players.  I, personally, would love to murderkill Madison because she's Fake Alex's #2 and I don't want him to have any numbers but I would also love for there to be consensus on this vote.  So we got the vote moved off of Kevin because he's a number for us, and instead it's hopefully gonna be Kylie who's a bit more of a wildcard.

4) It also might be me if they're smart!!!!

So my alliance tells me we’re voting Kylie, which I’m okay with because she hasn’t talked to me as much. But I do worry about the future, I’m starting to consider what should come next and all I come up with is I need to find a majority alliance soon. These smaller alliance may be stable but I don’t have any idea what the others are thinking.

who mighT be going Home ladies and gents?? i don't know for sure but THIS PERSON ISN'T ME!!!! the challenge was cute with all the pIctures and i managed to win so Suck it!!! i think kylie is leavIng tonight, which is the best move for my game and Staying connected. the Deeper we get in this game, the moRe i feel like i can win it with thE right jury. it's building it that might Wind up being the problem. 

This challenge is a fuckin trap and I'm not falling for your shit hosts!

To elaborate: I think the odds are REALLY GOOD that the three people who go for the challenge will get swapped onto the other tribe.  I told Ruthie this because I know she'd volunteer.

So we've decided that, like so many times before, we're jumping into the fire together, and along with Olivia, we shall face what we may.

I’ve been such a flop with confessionals so far but not as bad as Ash I guess

Thank god Ash got medically evacuated. Tribal would have been a shit show otherwise. That and we really need to win this challenge so that the shit show never happens, if we lose, the shit show would have just been postponed. God, I’m so stroessner about this challenge, I have a good chance at being good at this but I’m afraid I’m going to mess up. I’m stressed.

I’m prett ambivalent about whether or not we win this challenge. Getting Lukas out would be great so I wouldn’t worry about him getting an alliance at merge, but any tribal might stir things up. Joannas a very interesting person to play with in this game because while I feel like I might be able to lie to her and get away with it I still think she’s very dangerous. When she’s desperate she seems easy to read. Although you should never assume you can successfully manipulate someone.

oh no I accidentally challenge beast

WHOOPS

Alex is a challenge beast and I'm happy to be close with him, he's an awesome shield for me. I also rly like him!

I'm trying to get closer with Ruthie because I think that she's super nice, loyal and level headed player.

I LOVE and adore Olivia. I'm unsure if I could beat her at the end? I don't think so but who knows lol

Kevin has kinda disappeared which makes me worried because he's by far the person who I trust the most in the game and I know he wants to go to the end with me so he better not strike out or I'll be super upset.

Kylie is a big question mark for me right now lol, I wouldn't be too upset if we lost and voted her out BUT I promised to look out for her if we lost so she could potentially blow my game up a bit. 

We keep winning but I hope we get a challenge we're I can help

Now that that strange interruption is over we will now continue with our planned schedule of “Voting out Lukas” thank you for your patience

So scrambling so much was a bit of a mistake last time, made people want to vote me out. I'll admit to it. But people have been telling me that I am safe, I just don't know if that is true. I guess we will find out.

When you read this, Alex (on my tribe), i want you to know how cowardly your game is right now. So boring to watch. So boring to be with. AJ, you are cool and I really wanna work with you, but I guess Alex is giving you whatever you need. Joanna I love you. One of us will probably leave tonight and at this point I’m fine with it.

Everything is so...calm? I like don't know what to do with myself lmao everything is going so well on this tribe and it's truly iconic. It's good timing too lmao I've been so busy with getting finals that it's nice to not have to worry so much about this.

So shocker!!! We lost immunity! Since we didn’t go through with the last round bc of the inactive, I’m assuming we will just do what we did last round... hopefully nothing goes crazy and it all goes to plan!

ALEX’S MIST IS ALREADY TOO STRONG! I’d rather work with Joanna and Lukas but that can’t happen because there are no numbers yet. So annoying. 

Honestly I trust the group I’m in. But I just have this sick feeling that they’re all voting for me. I can’t get away from that feeling sadly.

Also Alex S. is really annoying for winning everything. We don’t care that you were the Jeopardy Snob in high school. It just makes you more annoying.

I'm kinda screwed, but that's alright. You live and you learn and I've been having fun. You make mistakes sometimes and that's all that matters. And yes, I did actually use a random name picker to choose my vote and yes it did actually land on Alex. Sorry. Lukas hasn't responded, I have no idea what he is gonna do. If he votes for me, whatever. Anna says I'm safe, Alex says I'm not. Whatever, we'll just find out.

Sorry I’m a confessional flop so far I’ve just been so fucking busy and anxious but this game has been fun I swear. I love Elmo sm and I hope Joanna and Lukas don’t go home. I’d just be so sad 

So the vote went as well as could be expected. But now Joannas acting all innocent as if she didnt know i was getting votes and just went along with it. She even said she was going offline because she was “feeling betrayed” uhhhhh I was the one getting votes after trying to work woth people. But whatever, shows me where her loyalties lie.

Yeah, I'm pissed that Sammy went home. I'm mad at AJ, but I do want to keep working with her so I think that I can get over that. But Alex seemed to orchestrate the entire thing and idk. Honestly, I'm just mad in general. It isn't looking good for Lukas and I so I need to get over everything and find my way into some cracks and try to find a way to save myself and Lukas. 

There are two things I have learned from my times playing this game. 1) Tribal council is one very long, very complicated, game of telephone. 2) Whenever you think you know exactly what is going to happen, is exactly when you have absolutely no idea what is going on.

reaction to third tribal council + what will i do moving forward?

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1n6vMXXiMCe

So I am feeling a lot better about this tribe.

Last night, Olivia said to me, totally unprompted, that she really likes me and Ruthie, and that she feels closer to me than some of the other people on her first tribe.  I also have a working relationship with Elmo, and I have...sort of adopted Kevin?  It's like when there's a puppy that follows you home and decides you're his dad now, Kevin's the puppy and I'm his dad, which, okay?  I'll take it?

I think Sammy going on the other side shook everyone up, which is GREAT and I love it!  But I feel like I'm in a good place over here, and considering we're only gonna have, like, three or four people playing the bludger challenge today, I don't feel great about our chances.  But if we lose, I think we'll be okay?  Maybe?  Oh lordy I hope so.

So the other tribe just pulled a fast one and switched all of their names so that they would confuse us, which worked, but it's not only annoying but seems unfair, so now it's just Madison and I trying to fight them

So we lost. It sucks but I think because Lukas and I performed well enough (Alex got Lukas taken out so it wasn't his fault) that we should be safe. It was 2 am for Stephen but he and Anna didn't participate at all. But I think Madison and I put up one hell of a battle and as much as it sucks to see us have to go back to tribal I am proud of the effort we put forward, now we just have to figure out who to vote out.

NuZonko aka creative QUEENS

uggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh

So Anna Alex Madison and I made an alliance, but Joanna has pitched to me that voting out Alex is a big move. But imo now is not the time to stab someone in the back its time to remove the daggers from my own. I am keeping my eye on Alex and Madison though, they are smart, and I don’t trust them 100% Not that you trust anyone 100% in this game. But as I said, get far in the game before you tear your one alliance apart.

I think that all my effort to try and save Lukas has just blown up in my face. If I can't get someone to swap and vote with me, I'm either next or they are going to switch the vote to me. If I go home tonight I am not going to be shocked. I just really wish that I can actually trust the people who said that I could trust them. The only person I trust 100% is Lukas, because we are on the bottom together and I don't know if there is anyway out of it. AJ keeps saying she wants to work with me but if she seriously wants to work with me she needs to stop screwing me over. Her betraying me is getting really exhausting. Now I have a lot of damage control to do before tribal. 

Kinda getting ready to leave tonight. I played every single card I had, and it didn't work. I know that if Lukas goes now I'm probably next. But since I stirred the pot so much I wouldn't be shocked if they switched the vote to me. I send a paragraph to Alex telling him how I tried to work with him before and that I was sorry that I went against him this time, but honestly what else am I supposed to do? I felt betrayed when Sammy went out and I know that Alex orchestrated that, he was the one that made me switch my vote to Stephen, so apparently it is my fault for maybe wanting to get him out. I just feel lied to by everyone, and very alone. But if I do leave tonight, everyone better know that I put up one hell of a fight. 

I honestly cannot BELIEVE we won!  I am so mad at myself for my stupid fuckup as well, GODS I'm so dumb.

Anyway the group that was working together on the challenge (myself, Elmo, Olivia and Ruthie) REALLY gelled, which is great for me.  I'm hoping that if we lose, or as we move into a merge-type scenario, this group can form the core of a really good alliance for me moving forward because I really like the people there and I could use a solid group against whatever fuckery I'm sure Alex C has planned.

We keep winning! I feel that we will never lose! Atleast now that I'm with zonko! But im still worried about the room of requirements will never open for me...

ok I didn't throw the challenge. I won an advantage and I'm PRETTY sure that merge is at f10 wooh. I think I want to throw f11 immunity. I'm pretty secure rn I think :')

Pray for Joanna tbh, if she goes imma be sad

I'm just really lit that we're not at tribal AGAIN! It's so tiring and I'm really grateful that my teammates pulled that off; they're geniuses. Everything is smooth sailing right now and I'm living for it

I’m so glad our tribe won! I feel super good vibes with Olivia, Elmo and of course Alex! I’m hoping that if we do ever go to tribal we can maybe get rid of Kylie since she’s kind of MIA anyway. I really hope that Anna is going to be okay tonight, time will tell I’m sure! My fingers are crossed for her, I want to make merge with her and for she and I to rule the game together. 

... tribal sucks and i’m confused and Lukas is offline and AJ wants to work with me again but she is still wanting to vote for Lukas. Alex is gunning for me, Madison and Stephen haven’t responded.

IM IN THE GREASTEST CITY IN THE WORLD AND IM NOT GOING HOME TONIGHT LADIES

Joanna is supposed to go tonight but I actually wanna go instead. Not because I don't want to play... but I love Joanna sm and I want to ensure she gets a full experience. 

So much is going on.. so theres a majority alliance, me, Stephen, Alex C and Madison who all voted together last round to blindside Sammy and then there is Joanna and Lukas. Us 4 are going to vote Lukas but tell Lukas we are voting Joanna and vice versa. Their reactions about the other one going is actually very suspicious and is putting the nail in the coffin. If you are 100% unwilling to vote someone out and you make that clear to me, then I see that as you are more loyal to them then you are anyone else. Therefore, I am going to vote them out. 

Joanna tried to blindside Alex, I told Alex because I trust Alex more than anyone else right now. Joanna found out I told Alex and then started to throw MY name out there.... so then I confronted Joanna and we talked everything out. I apologized for last round of voting out Sammy and hopefully we mended things for now. Her and Lukas should be voting Alex C while all of us vote Lukas. If an idol is played then RIP.

Well here's my personal life that no one needs to know about but woo

So the big thing hitting my life right now is that my grandma, 77, contracted RSV and Pneumonia. She's in hospice care now and won't last a lot longer. That's the big bulk of why my life has been a big mess, and overall the saddest part. But it seems this week is just a big week of stress for me.

I got a scholarship from Nebraska for $10,000, which is fantastic and I'm not trying to gloat with that. But the scholarship only resides with Public Schools and I wanted to go to a Private one. I haven't looked at the Public Schools but I'd basically get to go to college for free and in this economy that's fantastic. With that, there's a lot of paperwork I have to fill out by May 1st and it's this big decision that will literally impact the rest of my life.

Then I am having a job at a Day Center working with kids from Kindergarden to Fifth grade. That's a great thing for me since I want to be a teacher, but they're also wanting all the paperwork by May 1st.

And lastly I have a production that my school puts on every week that has tech week starting... May 1st! So it's coming up and we're hardly done with anything and that's a big stress on it's own.

So this has just been my big rant of "everything seems to be piling up at once and to top it off I'm a senior trying to make sure everything's settled so I GRADUATE" and it's just been a mess and I needed to type this all out for y'all woo.

But as for this vote HOOOOOOLY SHIT.

We're voting for Lukas but telling Lukas we're voting Joanna.

Joanna tried throwing my name out, then did AJs. It's just been a slew of messiness.

Lukas tried telling me he'd vote out anyone I'd ask, and would even make it known it was his vote. So I told him to vote Joanna. He said he'd not vote for Joanna and if I didn't have another name he'd vote me.

I told him to go right the fuck ahead. I'm not about to throw my alliance under the bus after a round of working with them. I'm messy, but not that messy.

Of course y’all fucking swapped us. I was JUST getting to know people and now I have to start over wooooo can’t wait. 

I like the tribe I guess. Elmo and I were separated which is sad, but I still have Sammy and now Stephen. Things are looking good...I hope.

Ack! The swap! But hey my OG tribe has majority, I only haven’t met one person before, and I don’t have to worry about Olivia and Lukas teaming up to kill me.... yet. Im really glad to have second chances with these people I just hope they see it the same way, we look like a strong tribe too though there are some powerhouses on the other tribe still.

There was a swap! Dang I miss my old friends now... at least I have Elmo on my side! Ash is very inactive so I'm a little worried with numbers

So I'm trying the Room of Requirement task. It seems hard, mostly because I am not the best at anagrams and because I am having the hardest time finding any of the items. At least, the website is actually working now, only messed up a little bit lol.

I GOT SEPARATED FROM ALL OF MY FUCKING FRIENDS ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS FUCK YOU RANDOM DOT ORG At least I have Elmo. Hopefully this will bring us closer together Kevin is... unsettling like he’s a loose cannon 

This challenge seemed fun at first, and it is still a super cool idea... I am just no longer enjoying myself. I think I'm just going to go to bed now, because I don't want to deal with this anymore. :(

If inactive ash is the death of me I will fucking riot

This challenge needs to die and never be brought into another game again literally go Thelma and Louise yourself challenge omfgggg. I mean kudos to the hosts for working hard af on it like what a cool concept but goddamn for someone as lazy as I am it’s fuckin terrible 😂

A swap?  Groundbreaking.

And NATURALLY both tribes are 4-3 Rosmerta.  Things don't look great for our heroes, folks!

My plan in this swap is twofold: first, make friends.  Okay, fine.  Elmo seems nice, Kevin seems...desperate.  Sure, fine.

Second step: BURN MYKONOS TO THE MOTHERFUCKIN GROUND

Basically, if and when we lose, I am going to go to Elmo, Kevin and the third one I've forgotten and say "Hey, listen, obviously y'all have the numbers, and that's chill.  But here is the thing: there's a six-person alliance and I want to burn it down so we all don't get fucked at merge, so let's vote Kylie out and then Olivia."

Will it work?  Who knows!  Will it be fun? Hells yes!

Gulp this challenge isn’t looking good and if it comes to tribal I am worried. I hope I can work something out with Lukas Anna and Madison, Joanna, or Sammy, or even Alex C if thats the only option. If we do lose tribal it’ll be info gathering time, trying to SUBTLY find cracks in the for. Or in the worst case scenario betray Zonko for some kind of position with Rosmerta.

https://vocaroo.com/i/s1Q4jnht0aI1

Kevin doing something very unexpected

https://vocaroo.com/i/s06QxTdrohXY

room of requirement + train wreck tribe + possible alliance of mykonos people + general stuff

im a #dumbass and i love elmo so much omfg but we're so alone also i love ruthie, alex, and kylie more than ash already but it would be so dangerous to flip bc they could run to ash and be like hey they want you out vote with us and get one of either elmo or i out ugh

Yeah, so, um, I suck at anagrams. Sammy, who is someone I trust 100%, said he went for the room as well, but said that he didn't get there first. I'm currently trying to decide if it is even worth trying to solve this anagram at this point. But I know that I want to work with Sammy. With a little help from Sammy, I finished the anagram and have submitted the link to my host chat, knowing full well that I am not getting a trip to the room. Mostly just wanted to finish it, because I would have felt like a failure if I didn't lol. Anyway, I hope that Olivia went for it and got it! I can't wait for Sammy and I to be reunited with her (and bring Lukas too).

I am really stressed about losing that immunity. The people that I DO NOT want to go: Lukas and Sammy. The people that I would prefer not to go but if sacrifices have to be made: AJ/Anna. I think Alex C is a very big asset in terms of challenges, but that is a little scary going into the merge. Stephen scares me a little because I have played with him before and I know how smart he is, but I also want to work with him because he is super smart and we never got a chance to really repair the broken ass relationship we had in Mykonos (game wise). Madison... she has barely talked to me... Lukas says that it would be a big move to get rid of her, but like I haven't formed really any type of relationship with her and she hasn't been doing that much in terms of challenges. She's looking like the best option... I'm planning on asking around a little bit to try and see what everyone is thinking but ya know, when people don't talk to you it is hard to tell

Madison tells me she’s heard Lukas name. I’m good with that. But Joanna tells me she’s not close with Madison and isn’t opposed to flipping on the Rosmertas. On one hand getting out a Rosmerta could help even numbers, but looking forward I’d rather break tribelines than stick to them. If we have less Zonko and more Rosmerta then its less likely to become ZvR at merge. But I want both Madison and Joanna as potential allies as I still dont know what really went on pre-swap. I don’t think I should tell Madison what Joanna said, but I might be able to sway Joanna to vote Lukas. I’ll wait to see what Alex C, Sammy, and Anna think.

I've changed my mind. Before I was thinking that in a dire situation I would vote for AJ. I have decided I was lying to myself, I am not voting for her. I want her to stay, because I really really like talking to her and I would just be sad to see her go. Idk why I thought I would have been okay with it.

*Me to Anna*: “oh you want to vote out Madison? Thats fine its Fine! All good I’ve got your back!” *Me internally*: “fuckfuckfuck” Ah well, if it happens it happens I live to vote another day. I just know this could blow up in my face. I might tell Madison, see if she has an idol.

yikes okay so we are going to tribal...i tried to get a lot of them..we were just three behind, rip. I found the link to go to the room of requirement but I was too late..somebody already beat me. I think it could’ve been elmo, Alex, or Olivia. I’m really hoping it was elmo. He is probably my closest ally and I’m trying to distance myself away from all the mykonos people...but i want to work with some of them. For example, Joanna and I didn’t get to work together in the game because we never got the chance. Stephen and I were going against each other in Mykonos but I wasn’t to try to work with him here. Olivia and Lukas are gonna work together so that makes me extremely nervous. I like Anna, she’s super cool and I’m really hoping we can work together for a long time. Alex is a great player all around so he makes me a bit nervous. Anyways that challenge was super fun and I’m glad I could help out!  The only names I’ve heard for the vote are Madison, Stephen, and Lukas, but i Like them all:/ i think Madison is going home which sucks bc i know how much she’s been wanting to play a Harry Potter game but she’s been busy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NPBIwQyPWE

these hoes REALLY tryna push my name around today of all days. I GOTTA GO TO PROM Y’ALL THIS IS AN ALL DAY THING. catch me campaigning to stay while getting my hair done.

I’m so glad we finally won something woohoo! Right now I’m on a monorail to Epcot and glad I’m not having to worry about a vote!

Sammy, Joanna, and myself are tight. However, we cannot figure out the vote for tonight. We want Stephen gone but AJ is throwing a fit because she thinks it’s an attack on old tribe lines. For now we just have to make sure it’s not my trio that leaves. Idc about anything else. 

We won! I haven't been to tribal yet either! I wonder how long o can go without going to tribal :0

So this tribe swap is stressful. I have Stephen and Lukas from OG Zonko and then I met 4 new people... which obviously means we are in the minority if people are sticking to their og tribes. I vibed really well with Joanna and Alex C, they are really fun people. I don't 100% trust them yet but they are really fun to talk to. 

We lost immunity... shocker.. a tribe I'm on loses??? I'm shocked. Now I've heard literally everyones names except me or Joanna. People wanted Alex because he's so good at challenges but people that good at challenges go early merge and we need him to win the next challenge if we don't swap or anything yet. Every og Rosmerta has told me they like me more than their original tribe and that they wanna work with me, do I believe it?? ehh.. does it make me happy? hell yeah.. 

Alex wanted Sammy which threw me off because everyone has been saying Stephen. I don't want Stephen to go because he's an OG Zonko and i told him I would try to keep him safe. Now yes, I am going to TRY but I'm not going to put my own neck on the line for someone else. I don't think these tribe lines are too strong and I think they can be broken next round. People are also saying Stephen is a sneaky player from past games so maybe that is true? Who knows. My vote is still up in the air but I have work in like less than 2 hours so I'm gonna have to decide quick.

https://youtu.be/W_HUdf89hI8

I'm having a great time!!!!!!! We won!! This is so nice oh my god I spent three hours on that challenge and only found three things and i was so worried but we did it!

I can't believe we won again! I've been immune every single round which is lit af :') I lowkey made f2 with Kevin and talked about with Olivia. Gotta have your bases covered, yknow? I've been trying to keep talking to Ruthie, Kylie and Alex S so if we eventually lose, we can have an easy vote. ALTHOUGH, I do have to admit that I'm paranoid that the OG Zonko's are going to team up with Ash and vote Kevin off (I think that Kevin would be the first target because Kylie and Olivia are friends and I THINK they like me so they wouldn't want me out first. Who knows though! My perception could be really off!)

I feel like we might have another swap at 12, maybe not but it would be cool! This tribe is kinda scary because of Kev's maneuver! But I'm just trying to take it day by day right now. 

Rosmerta's tribe will be interesting to see because I hope that my OG tribe stays together to vote off one of the OG Zonko's. I still want Anna to stay because it would be nice to have an ally at the merge who I've known before the game. I also feel like Alex C could be in danger but I really hope that he's not! Pray for Rosmertas and Anna! If Stephen or Lukas went out it would be VERY nice because it would definitely weaken the supposed Mykonos alliance , still not sure if its true but there's defo rumors of that being a thing

Go to sleep to drama, wake up to drama. Its the drama ouroboros. So apparently Lukas, Sammy, and Joanna are targetting me for Mykonos, which is very rude but not unsurprising. But Madison Aex and Anna are going to save me and vote Sammy? Idk who to believe but I am more tempted to trust Anna atm.

Alright kids, we finally won something!  And thank gods too, because this weekend was TERRIBLE for me to try and scramble, so I got real lucky.  Also, of the 30 items, I found, like, half?  And I could've had more if I had, like, spelled Colin Creevey's name right?  So I feel good about that.

Anyway, here is my assessment of my current Zonko tribe, in no particular order.

Ruthie - light of my life, my moon and stars, I must ensure I have the opportunity to push her in front of a train at some point

Elmo - Easily the one I've talked to the most since the swap.  Nice kid, I like him, I think he's playing more naive than he actually is but that's fine.

Kevin - a mess, I'm love him, asked me for help on the challenge because he is a disaster, hopefully I can pocket him

Kylie - literally didn't message me until today, okay girl

Olivia - we keep missing each other and also I want her dead because Mykonos sooooo

Ash - whom

Operation "Save My Ass By Turning People Against Mykonos" is absolutely a go, though my hope is that I won't be in too much danger as a challenge asset, but this is also nearing the point where you gotta cut the challenge assets loose, SO!  We'll see!

I expect Anna to be voted out on the other tribe tonight because she is not a Mykonian and I know she was busy yesterday because it was her birthday, so I suspect she may not have had as much time to bond with the tribe as she would've liked.

I am a sneaky bitch holy hell. See Sammy and Joanna messaged me at the same time wanting to vote off Stephen. They also both wanted Madison gone for a hot second. So my thought process went to “huh, what if they do that to me?” So I went to AJ and asked if we could vote off Sammy. Then asked Madison, and told Stephen he basically had to or he’d be voted off.

Idk what it is with Sammy. I like him a lot as a person but game wise I just don’t think we’re ever exactly on the same page.

Thank you all for such an amazing season! Here are some sarcastic and serious awards that we thought fit all sixteen of our players. We hope you enjoy!

SASS AWARDS Best idol play: Ashlyn Best friends: Alex C and Sammy Most active player: Ash and Sean Biggest Harry Potter fan: Lukas Easiest to get a hold of: Kylie Least confusing: Kevin Least pregame friendships: Olivia Least loyal: Joanna Spot on intuition: Ruthie Definitely not a Slytherin: Alex S Least bitter: Stephen Least busy: Madison Least competitive: Anna Person no one wants to talk to after the season: Elmo

With 33% of the vote...

Congratulations, Anna! You have won Fan Favorite of Survivor Athena: Hogsmeade!

As for Player of the Season, we could not decide on just one player, so we decided to give player of the season to two fabulous wizards, Alex S and Anna. 

I SPELLED DUMBLEDORE - DUMBLEDOORE i'm just amazed I spelled Weasley right I can't spell to save my life. THAT CHALLENGE WAS SO FUN.  My final score was 66 and I just really hope I did better than some people so I don't feel like a 'DUMBLEDOORE'

Anna messaging me 2 minutes before the vote is read just saying "you there?" is basically a sure way for me to be SUDDENLY CONVINCED I'm about to be blindsided so THANKS FOR THAT HEART ATTACK

I really like and want to trust Elmo but I just have this gut feeling I shouldn’t alfjsljsk

I don't want to be that person but Ash really hasn't been active. We sat her because she did not say anything about this challenge and we didn't want to sit someone who was willing to participate. So, as much as I rather would not lose, if we do end up not winning this challenge, I think Ash has to go. I'm sure it won't be difficult to convince others of the same viewpoint. But I feel pretty good about my position currently. Olivia (my queen), Sammy, and Elmo have all expressed interest in working with me (and with each other) and I feel like that alliance is pretty strong.

Things are uh eerily quiet but I think we're gonna do pretty well in this challenge, or at least I think I did well and I hope everyone else feels the same, so here's hoping there's no tribal tomorrow night. Alex and AJ are really the only peeps who have anything to say rn, but I can always trust Stephen and if he's not worried then neither am I tbh

I'm kinda worried because I got a low score one the challenge let's hope we can pull though and make winning streak!

I’m so bad at remembering to be social

What has happened in ~24h + alliance! + what do I need to do moving forward!

Im so happy I got away with a late-Challenge play. The hosts gave me an extenstion in time, I now hold an Immunity idol. My alliance will watch out for me as I was second to last, I may play my Idol...

UGHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I'm so sad, I think I'm in a good place with my tribe but I'm worried about being out of town for the next few days. Hopefully we can figure out the vote tonight. I hope the group that voted together last time will vote together again.

Ugh so we stuff up again, and Ashlyn immediately messages the alliance targetting Lukas, rip. I can’t vote Lukas for two reasons: He is a part of an alliance I want to keep around, and voting him out would put the other Mykonos people, Olivia especially, off. I’d love to vote out Ashlyn who doesn’t know the meaningof the word tact (but hey she is 13) but the idol worries me. So that leaves Kylie who I truly believe could be a number for me in an emergency. Ideally we would split the votes Ashlyn/Kylie, with the revote voting out Ashlyn.

Losing sucks.  Losing twice in a row sucks a whole bag of dicks.

I didn't want to be at tribal again, I don't have time for this shit.  And now I have to grapple with what vote to do here.

On the one hand, I would very much love to kill a Mykonian, because they are Friends and I am Not Immediately Their Friend though I am, at least temporarily, Stephen's friend.  Plus, having Ashlyn as an extra vote – with an Idol! - is useful to my game.

On the other, Ashlyn is an easy target, everyone wants her out and I don't know how to avoid that.

Ugh.  This sucks.  On the plus side, I have a Time Turner, which lets me rewind a round after the vote, so that is both Fun and Sexy and I will use it to GREAT EFFECT probably, or I'll fail, and also die.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh thank you that’s all

I’m so sad we lost :( they are planning to split the vote on Kylie and Ashlyn but I don’t want either of them to go. I’ll probably vote for some rando.

I'm really annoyed!!! I think we are all voting Ashlyn tonight but who knows.. my luck I'll get blindsided the night before my birthday LMAO. 

I'm super glad that we won again! But I'm also worried that we are going to swap. I feel confident with the relationships I've made on this tribe, but it is still a scary thought. 

DISNEY HERE I AM! I forgot that Stephen knows because he’s in the Glee game I’m hosting but I hope he forgot or doesn’t tell anyone. They’ll find out soon enough depending on what the next challenge is but I REALLY need to be an asset for my tribe so I don’t get sent home! 

Okay so that last challenge(categories) was actually pretty fun and I thought I had a pretty decent score. I signed up for the room of requirement because not many signed up last time...I just hope it doesn’t close before I get the chance to go in! If i would’ve signed up last round I would’ve had a good shot at getting into the room bc I had a higher score on the scavenger hunt. I’m in two alliance right now. One with me Elmo and Kevin called the Three Broomsticks and one with Olivia Joanna and Elmo. I would like to maybe set up something on the side with Madison and Alex but they aren’t as active. Also ash hasn’t been online at all so she would be the one person I would suggest voting out. Lucky for us we have won both immunity challenges and have worked pretty well together! I think a swap is coming tho...it’s a mess. (ALSO SO MANY NEE PEOPLE IN THIS GAME AND I LOVE IT)

We won again! But now that they are losing people we might get combined so now if this happens I might never see Elmo again! :0

I unfortunately had to sit this round out! But Im so proud of my teammates for carrying my weight for a round. Hoping to kick it into high gear starting next week!

I feel so bad about voting out someone so young and trusting, but those are precisely the reason I feel so mich calmer now.

HI IM LATE IM SORRY I FORGOT TO CONFESS! It’s so hard to remember when we’re not going to tribal. 

ALEX S IS ON MY TRIBE CAN THIS DAY GET ANY BETTER????? I PLAYED MY FIRST EVER SURVIVOR GAME WITH ALEX, WE WERE RIDE OR DIES AND I PUT WAY TOO MUCH TRUST IN HIM BUT I AM SOOOOO HAPPY THAT I GET TO RECONNECT WITH HIM, I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND I'M GOING TO BE WARY BUT AT THE SAME TIME I CAN'T WAIT TO REKINDLE OUR FRIENDSHIP!! sorry for the caps but i am SO EXCITED 

also i don't really know anyone else well at all which is GOOD! and ashlyn is a queen, her intro video gave me life she is not allowed to be zoe'd but ALEX AND I ARE MAKING MERGE THAT'S ALL I KNOW sorry for the caps I am just SO EXCITED!!

DRINKING GAME: TAKE A SHOT EVERY TIME I SAY THE WORD LIKE

https://youtu.be/r5n0wVEkNCQ

Yay I’m back in an Athena season! I’ve got some people I know, Kylie who I trust, Lukas who is.... a character. I’ve never played a season with Ruthie but I am definitely excited too. Not many other people are online which is annoying. I’m excited to search for idols, but I really hope there are hosts awake when I search because if I can search while my tribes asleep I’m golden.

I'm scared

I love Sammy, Joanna and Kevin so far... Madison is great too but i havent got to talk to her much that is all

bye!

SORRY I'm hogging the confessionals right now but Stephen just broke my heart, grrrr.  We were talking about Harry Potter and he said- 

'i love the world and characters and movies but the actually writing of the books was terrible' 

and then- 

'its badly written :( the only reason its popular is the characters and world building tbh'

THIS IS SLANDER, but I'm being super nice to him because I don't want to make enemies I'm all 'MHMM the first book was so hard to read BLAH BLAH'

Stephen what the heck you are breaking my heart.

Hi! I'm super excited to be playing and meeting new people. Hopefully I can make some new friendships. :)

Omg I’m so overwhelmed. I’m happy to be on a tribe with Stephen and Kylie because I know them from other games, but the rest of these gays are completely new to me :) I can’t wait to get to know everyone.

So Lukas and I caught each other Idol searching, but I doubt itll be a big deal. Its going to happen a lot to everyone and its more about peoples reactions to being caught anyway. I was honest about not finding anything and even shared my numbers. Hopefully this brings Lukas and I closer? Idk Lukas’ mind is like pandoras box, you won't know what you find till it all comes out.

Choo choo! All aboard the “we got caught searching for idols” train, just picked up Alex.

so i don't want to be known as the rat but WHY IS NO ONE SEARCHING FOR THE IDOL?? i don't want to be the first one but at the same time I don't want to mess around and waste time I'm here to PLAY 

ALSO WHY ARE ONLY TWO PEOPLE DOING THE ROOM OF REQUIREMENT TASK WHERE IS EVERYONES SENSE OF ADVENTURE???? So I just need to make sure I have the most items on my tribe in case someone else was trying for it too. but what is wrong with people, they should all be jumping at the chance for this kind of stuff, I really don't want to be the first to go for playing too hard but they are all making me yawn, WHAT THE HECK. Also I'm scared I didn't get all the egg out of my hair, I washed it twice and conditioned but I still feel slimy. 

So no one wants to look for idols. Everyone's afraid of getting caught. Many people aren't getting pics in. This means that if we lost the scav we know who's out... let's just hope more people start getting scores or we will be in a jam.

So I'm keeping up with a tradition and I'm going to Disney World on Thursday! I think I'm not going to tell ANYONE though and just still try to be as active as possible because I don't want them to get any wise ideas while I'm there.  I'll be back Sunday so yes, wish me luck and lets hope I can pull one over on them hehe ;)

Also I just realized that there are only FOUR returnees in this game and I'm one of them, WHAT. I mentioned this to Alex but i'm thinking I shouldn't have- anyway, I think that I'm going to make a group chat of everyone thats done stuff for the challenge once the results are turned in and ask them if we can all promise to not vote for one another since Ashlyn (queen), Kylie and Sean (Who the HECK, i didn't know there was a Sean on our tribe till today) are inactive.

I'm so excited for this game!! So we are about to finish up the immunity challenge which I went allllll out for.. I think I'll have over 100 points while everyone else has 50... idk something about me in orgs is that I'm very competitive and it's so hard for me to lay low and not go all out in challenges. I just enjoy the challenges so much that it's hard not to give it 100%. Which obviously can be an issue sometimes because that shows that I'm a physical threat...

I've been talking to Alex a lot and I really like him!! He's so nice and helpful and I'm really hoping that we can go far in this game together! I also adore Ruthie and Stephen! They are both really friendly and the fact that they are actually DOING the challenge is a relief. I'm really disappointed in the people who have literally posted NOTHING for the challenge (sean/kylie/ashlyn) like.... way to let your tribe down? I know elmo from the other tribe and i KNOW he's going just as hard as I am so idk I'm not too confident going into the results. Ashlyn has also not spoken to me at all and like I know she's 13 buuutttt still.

intial thoughts of the tribe ~ (was done like  day2 less than 24 hours into the game)

AHH OKAY SO I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH AND THIS SCAVENGER HUNT IS AMAZING!! I have an alliance chat with Kevin and elmo. I trust elmo probably the most but i also love Olivia and madison!! I’m already having so much fun and i really hope our tribe wins...

Me seeing inactive tribe members we can vote out early to help solidify alliances and stay utr:

Still getting used to a lot of stuff. Trying to get all my new teammates straight in my head. 

Just finished the challenge, was super fun for the most part! I just really hope we won so I didn't burn my tablecloth for nothing (yes i know, i was safe, the house did not get burned down, i cannot blame you, i just apparently can't throw flaming pieces of paper into cups very well). But I'm super proud of our tribe and I hope that our hard work payed off!

WOOT WOOT! We did a good job! I really like our tribe so I'm glad that we won!

So, Nothing new is happening, honestly im pretty pissed the hosts striked me, I thought I said I couldnt post but their word is final. I like Stephen, seems trustworthy and I feel like he would be a good ally! Im not doing SUPER well, still confused with the mechanics of the game but I will learn. That is if Im not voted out at tribal council...I really hope to god that I am not, my other confessionals will be as video as opposed to writing. My mood in the game right now, in one word is: Annoyed.

Fuck I enjoy my tribe. But I don't know how much they enjoy me? Like as of late I've kinda gotten over the "let's let them slowly adjust to how much of an ass I am and just go full force".

Kevin's 13 and that's not a bad thing but I'm shook. I started playing ORGs when I was 12 so I'm not judging him or anything. He seems very interactive and willing to play which is always a good thing. That being said I kinda roasted him when he was asked if I was going to call everyone in the tribe call to celebrate. I just sorta did my snarky "nah fam I'm gonna individually call everyone".

Olivia put a laughing reaction to that post, so I think that's a good sign. I like her a lot, she's fun and exciting. As is Joanna. Both just seem really easy going.

Also this is the first time I've really talked to Elmo. He's a fun guy but I'm going to have nightmares over his Elmo costume. Never in my life have I wanted to see Elmo crab walking. Not because Elmo himself is weird or anything. He was just in a legitimate Elmo suit. Mark my words, I will have a fever dream over Elmo in an Elmo Costume.

I was SCARED bc I contributed basically nothing to the challenge but WE WON ANYWAY BC SOME PEOPLE FLOPPED HARDER THAN ME HEHE!

So a five person alliance comes together thinking of voting sean or ashlyn, then suddenly ashlyn searchs for and finds the idol. A bit convenient idk if i believe her. I will most likely tell my alliance and we can split the votes or just vote for sean in case. But still Ashlyn puts me off, Im not sure if shes very shady and I shouldnt trust her or she really genuine and Im just paranoid. Most likely we’ll vote for Sean and I’ll tell Ashlyn to play her idol, see what happens :/ Ugh moral dilemmas are the worst.

So I got Ashlyn to talk to Alex S because I didn’t want to just be my word against hers or w/e. But now he’s worried about burning her and I’m like we can’t work with her she’s an Idol with legs, theres no strategic plan there! I’m sure she's lovely but I barely talked to her and she blurted out the idol alliance talk.

I'm honestly so frustrated that we lost this immunity. It's not fair that I spent so much time and energy to get 130 FREAKING POINTS to lose. I got the highest score in the whole cast which probably puts a target on ME but whatever. At least it hopefully keeps me safe on my tribe because getting rid of someone who is actually trying is idiotic. 

The good thing about this challenge is it allowed me to get out of my comfort zone, on EM I never would have posted those videos even if they were only for the hosts and my tribe. It really was good for me to learn to be okay with how I look.. I talked to Ruthie about it a little and she understood where I was coming from. I really like Ruthie and I'm hoping that her and I start up a friendship!

For this vote, Ruthie created an "alliance" idk if I would call it that but she created a chat of the people that actually tried, (Me, Stephen, Lukas and her) and we are gonna choose who goes home tomorrow. Right now I think it's going to be between Sean and Ashlyn. Neither of them submitted ANYTHING which yes I understand you are busy but I'm busy too... I work everyday and have to pack up my entire apartment to move across the country. I'm sure you can take 10 minutes out of your day to submit a few pictures. It was just really shitty!!

We won by a lot! I'm so happy for everyone. But the problem is that I didn't get into the room of requirements. This means either zonko got in, or someone in my tribe won. 

I can't believe it took you this long to pull me aside for a confessional.  Don't you know I'm the star of the show?

Well, fine, we'll start from the top.  You know, I'm excited for the game, I'm looking forward to making new friends, excited to see who's on my tribe—oh no RUTHIE IS HERE

RUTHIE I LOVE YOU

RUTHIE STOP BEING IN MY WAY

See here is the thing: I love Ruthie.  She is fantastic and wonderful and we work really well together!  But Ruthie is also much better than I am at getting people to like her so under NO circumstances is she permitted at FTC if I want a shot in hell at winning.

But fine, okay, we'll hang out on this first tribe.  The next thing I notice is that there's SIX players from Mykonos in the game, three on each tribe.  Hmm.  Okay.  We're gonna have to do something about that.

The first couple days, you know, they proceed as normal, except for...like three people don't exist?  Kylie, Ashlyn and Sean all hardly contribute to the challenge, and Ashlyn and Sean don't message me at all, so I know already we're going to go to the first tribal.  So that sucks, a lot.

Here is an approximate list of the people on this tribe in order of my trust with them:

1) Anna – she is excellent, she is new to Tumblr games, but she's smart and I can work with her 2) Ruthie – I CAN'T HELP IT, HAVE YOU MET HER 3) Stephen – He's active but also I know he's not about to let me murder all his Mykonos friends 4) gap 5) continuing gap 6) Lukas – Bugs in drag?  Whom are you 7) Kylie – whom 8) Ashlyn – we gon' talk about her 9) Sean – literally whom

Okay, so, tribal starts, and immediately Ruthie pulls the five people who did stuff (me, her, Stephen, Anna and Lukas) into a chat to basically say “hey let's not vote each other.”  Okay, fine.  Secretly, I would very much like to vote Kylie out, because one Mykonian down is better for me, but I know the vote's gonna be between Ashlyn and Sean.  Anna's already told me she prefers to vote Ash but she'll go with either.

And then.  Oh, Ashlyn, honey.  She shows up, with a VENGEANCE.

After literally not existing for 48 hours, we exchange 5 messages, and then she pulls me into an alliance with Stephen – without asking!  Okay, uh, sure?  Fine?  Stephen then tells me, oh, she told me she found the Idol.  Cool.

Honestly, I believe it, though she hasn't told me yet.  There's one of two cases: either she's very clever and this is a bluff to survive, or she's very stupid and this is genuine.  I'm going with the second one.

So, I'm thinking the vote will be Sean now, and Stephen and I have discussed bluffing Ash into burning her idol.  I don't like this, because I need Ashlyn on my side at the next vote if I want a Mykonian gone (and I do).  But I'm not sure what I'm gonna do yet.

At any rate, we're having FUN!  This is FUN!  We're doing schemes already!

I'm happy

We won! We are celebrating. We played uno and are talking about the past. Let's hope we can keep up this fun and win the next game!

So everyone wanted Ashlyn out but I sugggested Sean bc Ashlyn seems iconic. Hopefully it works :)

I THINK this will be an easy vote.  I hope our tribe wins something next round, fingers crossed!!  Also can I talk about how much I love Anna Jane? Oh my gosh, I love her so much, I feel like I've connected the most with her and Alex, but also Stephen some too! I really hope that if there is a swap anytime soon I'm with Anna and Alex! 

Anyway, I think making a group chat with the people that actually did stuff on the scavenger hunt was a good idea BUT risky.  I don't want people to target me for it later so I'm glad it worked out on a positive note.

updated tribe assessment + general thoughts and a little bit about my strategy!

https://vocaroo.com/i/s0IWcjsdw7TS

My sneaky idol search this morning (being in a weird timezone is actually good for this game whew)

okay sooo i'm like super nervous for this vote the timing of the chall just didn't work out for me. i'm just hoping these people decide to keep me another day over ashlyn but we'll see. i'd be super sad to have my journey be done on day 1

So!!!!! Either I'm going home rn or Ashlyn or Sean are, but judging by the fact that I haven't heard from tons of people, I uh might not make it out of this tribal lmao here goes nothing

Thank you all for a wonderful season!

The first vote is for...

I would like it on the record that over the past 12 hours or so, I have contemplated voting for each of the three of you.  I think that no matter the result here, you all played a great game, and I truly wish I could vote for all of you.  In the past, I have thrown a vote to someone who I think deserves it who otherwise wouldn’t get it, and while I considered that, there are just too many unknown votes for me to chance it.  In conclusion, if anybody comes for any of the three of you to say you didn’t play the game well I will absolutely start a fight about it.

The second vote is for...

I don't know... our relationship was really rocky in this game, and my vote could go towards anyone honestly. But I feel like your answer was a bit better so I had to go with that. I love the other two of you.

The third vote is for...

My vote is going to Elmo for multiple reasons. I believe that he truly played the best game and even though each and every one of you who made it to FTC deserved to be there and worked very hard to get there, I think that his game edged out yours by only a little bit. For the life that I live, I value honesty, and Elmo is someone that I felt was able to get this far and still be honest with me. Anna, I think that you played a great game and I do hope that we can be friends after this, the reason I am not voting for you, is because I feel like you played such a wild game that almost didn't make sense to me, but obviously it put you there and put me here so something went right about it. Madison, I love you so much and I think you are a fantastic person. I think that you played the correct game for the game that you wanted to play, but based on the games around you I tend to gravitate more towards the way they played instead of the way you played. Elmo, you slayed socially, you won challenges, you had amazing jury management. I think that you played a fantastic game, and I think that out of all the three lovely people who made it to FTC, you deserve my vote the most.

The fourth vote is for...

I am voting for the person that I think played the best game and that I knew had my back all throughout the game even when I almost strayed from having hers.  I love you SO much and I'm so glad I met you and I am looking forward to us keeping up with one another, being friends and being able to count on one another when one of us needs someone to listen!  I love you, girlie!!

That’s two votes Anna, two votes Elmo, four votes left.

The fifth vote is for...

The sixth vote is for...

I really hope you don’t get runner-up simple because someone else talked more

That’s three votes Anna, three votes Elmo, two votes left.

The seventh vote is for...

Hey Elmo! I felt that we had a true friendship in this game I also feel that you are very charismatic. I think you played the best game! Even if you missed some parts here and there you still the best! :)

The eighth vote and the winner of Survivor Athena: Hogsmeade...

my drawing is creepy as hell on the parchment so don’t mind it. I love you so much and this vote isn’t just because I like you the best- it’s because you fucking deserve it. You’re a superstar. In the prisoner of Azkaban, Sirius Black screams at Pettigrew that he should’ve died rather than to betray his friends and buddy I would’ve kamikaze’d for you until the very end. You deserve this and I hope everyone else sees that too.
