Oh my god! That tribal could not have gone any better than it did. It proves how strong trust can be, and that people can trust you back if you give them the chance to. Some of the Odawa members were just too social, and that was their downfall tonight.

BLESS. I am back to my tribe. Also literally went to exile for NOTHING since someone else found the super idol first, but whatever. I think i'm in a good spot now because of Queen Luke. ALSO BYE KAGE.

HAHAHAHAHA IM CACKLING FUCKKKK!!! All the lies I told Kage made him paranoid and then he went crazy. THEN I told all the people I trust that he's a crazy player and they believed me and now he's here in Redotion lake and I literally get to end his game omg. Poetic justice at its finest

Okay i bet all the records and I can die now.I didnt give 100% in the challenge because why huh ??? Kage is so ugly like his game is messy af.

I'm legit ecstatic lol.  An idol was used to send out someone I didn't trust, my whole former tribe is not looking to be in the best spot, and I'm about to go take me a little vacation at exile :D

AHHH! Tribe swaps are never fun, especially when it's 4-4-1. But hey, we just have to keep winning at this point. This next week is the week i went home the last time i played, so i'm praying history doesn't repeat itself. I'd rather get spanked in the ass by karma herself than get out 3rd again.

Hi! I'm Luke and I just did THAT. The plan worked perfectly and Kage was taken out thanks to me. I was not ready for the fuckery of rocks this early in the game because I could have been rocked out and I ain't no Paschal English, Katie Collins or Jessica Lewis! I also think it's extremely fitting that the Oscars are happening tonight when my alliance is talking about the super idol because the Oscar should go to ME for acting shocked that it exists when I have it in my pocket ready to use for when I get voted out. Hopefully I won't have to use it until merge if I make it but (:

So Matt is telling me whilst at The Shoreline there is a new idol combination that's longer the previous one and I sWEAR TO GOD! IF Y'ALL! MADE MY SUPER IDOL FAKE! IN EXCHANGE FOR A NEWER HARDER TO FIND ONE! I'LL CHOKE!

I love the fact that the swap has forced me onto such a weird position, I'm not the one being pagonged but Meskwaki members that stayed on their tribe might be completely Anti-Odawa which could be bad for me. I wish Kage luck but he might get eaten up by Andreas so ehh, I hope the other 4 Odawa can stick it out. About the abduction it was most likely someone on NuMeskwaki but it definitely could be someone here as well, either way Odawa is screwed and whoever it was just did this in an attempt to get Adam safe and now the tribe is 5-4-1 :]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] why is everyone doing this to me i don't know how to be an underdog

i'm tired and every time i go to the shoreline i regret it and i always forget to search FUCK

I'm not gonna lie I was pretty sad to see that I was separated from literally every Odawa member and I might not see them until the reunion call which is pretty grim but probably true unless there's another swap. I really don't know the dynamic of this tribe but I'm really glad we keep winning and winning because I don't want to deal with tribal and not live up to the underdog role the game is practically forcing on me. The way I see it Meskawaki 2.0 is pretty much full-on boner assault on Anti-Odawa which has me concerned but my weak ass can't do anything about it so whatever.

i was bored so i started drama with andreas. i really have no idea what kind of game i want to play so far.... adam being added is extremely interesting because meskwaki now has majority 5-4-1. I feel like i can convince people to vote on my side for a game-changing vote. :D i wanna get some threats out while andreas aka the comp master iss till in redemption

This is fantastic. People are LITERALLY THANKING US FOR TAKING KAGE OUT. I feel kinda bad, but he did it to himself. He didn't keep his mouth shut WHATSOEVER and he threw people's names around, especially mine, so that's grounds for elimination. Talk shit, get hit. I'm currently talking to Bodhi about the tribal council and he's asking for "reassurance we're still working together" and of course I say yes, but something doesnt feel right about it. He's using those petty ass cheeky emojis and it makes me not want to trust him. ESPECIALLY SINCE HE TOLD ADAM TO VOTE FOR ME! I'm leading him to believe I'm still on his side, but I can't say at this point if I want to or not yet. This is going to cause me to have to choose between allies, which I really don't want to do this early in the game. On one end, I have Luke and Eric, with Luke ready to flip on Eric whenever I flip the switch. I'm pretty close to Luke at this point, and to flip on him would be chaos. And then Bodhi, who comes as a package deal with Aidan and Christian. Hopefully, if worst comes to worst, I try to get Bodhi to vote Christian or Aidan since they're rarely around. Dana is in the middle with me, so we're going to have to choose if we have to go to tribal again. I plan on winning today though, because this is a challenge I'm actually good at.

Pet Peeve #1 = Attempting to correct me on the rules when you, yourself do not understand them......I love Matt but yikes, that's how you get on my bad side.

I knew Kage would try and slander my name once he got voted out. Sucks that I just pinned it on Eric and evaded attack...I mean, Eric did lie about the Super Idol saying it was just a regular one.....

Crow caws onward! Shook that we won that tribal immunity, but we did it! I've secured a spot in the final 17 without attending TC yet....good and bad, but still mostly good ;) Scott is clearly wary of me after my incident with Kage at Shoreline, but I actually don't need him :X I have a good relationship with both Kyle and Stoner so if the vote goes Anti-Meskwaki I should be in the loop....so Scott better not keep up this sort of untrustworthy attitude towards me or we're gunna have some issues....jeepers!

YYYYAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I got invited into an alliance and its not by tribal lines! Me, Julia, Augusto, Scott, and Kyle.....it's perfect. 2 from both Meskwaki and Wyandot - 1 from Odawa (so no tribe has majority within the alliance) and we all get along! This will definitely ensure all of our safety at this upcoming tribal considering the others will assume it's Old Meskwaki vs. Old Wyandot.... And I'm also glad that I wasn't the founder of the alliance so that if it does get exposed, I won't take the (full) fall for it and can recover.....this is amazing!

And now I find out that it's because of Kyle....I KNEW THAT BOND WOULD COME IN HANDY! Hey, I might be at the bottom of this alliance, but I'm in it! Like Jeff Varner once said, the answer is yes! This ship is sailing, and I don't know where it's going but I'm ON IT! >:)

Things have certainly shaken up here in the Great Lakes! Firstly, Wyandot won immunity last round which was amazing cause who knew what would've happened if we did. Meskwaki went to tribal and everything went perfectly, Dana and Carson stayed and Kage went... thankfully. After that dramatic tribal, Emmon told me he found an Amulet of Abduction and asked who we should take. He eventually decided Adam, which I wasn't opposed to as he is someone we could swing on over to our side. Emmon, being the lovely person he is, had me in his thoughts when he made that decision which I appreciate. Adam came to our tribe and everything was fine and dandy. Everyone decided to have a sex party or whatever at the Shoreline and it was REVEALED by Andreas that a super idol had been found. First of all, why is everyone but me finding advantages? Secondly, HE DID THAT!! It jumbled things up a bit and because I'm a messy bitch that lives for drama, I certainly didn't mind that. Whoever has it is lucky af!! Back at Wyandot, I decided to create a lovely alliance with Kyle and Scott. My thought process regarding that was the simple fact that we all were on different starting tribes and could spill all sorts of tea to each other. I also want to save myself by any means neccessary to get to the merge, so this is somewhat beneficial. If the alliance will be successful, I'm not sure. All I know is that we have to put rubber to road and see how things pan out.

For whatever reason, I am looking in all the wrong places! The Shoreline doesn't mesh well with me apparently, so yay for that! I do appreciate the fact that the other tribe gets to see me, so it could build up bonds and whatnot... which is the plan! My intuition is on-point because I totally suspected something would happen this round and surely enough, it's a double tribal council! Now we have to break down what we've built here on NuWyandot and it sucks, honestly. I wanted to escape tribal for a few more days to make sure I didn't go home. ;-; Now we just have to wait for the free-for-all to begin and for the bloodbath to commence. I was complaining about not playing the game, but I guess you truly get what you wish for out here. What I'm trying to do is build good relationships with everyone here and make side alliances if I need to. An alliance that is in the works is myself, Roxy, Kyle, Crow, and Scott which I'm fine with because I had made an alliance with Kyle and Scott a few days prior to that. The old Wyandot tribe wants to stick together, which is lovely! Honestly, it would be the best if maybe Dan went home cause it'd be easier for people to flip on him... especially due to the fact that he probably hasn't connected with everyone, at least in my eyes. My best bet would be him or maybe Adam? We'll see, but I really hope I can win immunity or something cause it's crucial that I make it through this round... I don't wanna flop again ;-;

This tribe swap is insane! I'm just lucky to be the separated one with the idol in his pocket to use when necessary. These Odawa members might not be trusted, and I need to make sure that I don't get put on the bottom.

I'm glad that Bodhi talked to me. It shows that there might be something there and maybe I am not in such trouble in the beginning.

I am talking to Dana and Carson and I am praying one of them asks for an alliance. I would like to work with Carson and Dana and maybe Bodhi but none of those other Odawa members. I don't think i can trust them as much after those votes.

Right now I realize that I have no alliances in this tribe, and all I had is the Gallaghers. I can meet up with them at my own time at shoreline but I need to build some trust with Dana, Carson, and Luke to have some chance of opposition, because there is no chance us original Meskwaki and Wyandot would be safe otherwise.

I am trying to give Dana bait, but I think I will have to make this chat myself in order to make it a thing.

Then I ask if I can make the alliance chat, and Dana responds after all that time. Come on. XD

When Dana says she can't vote next vote, I froze. We had the majority and now it crumbled right in front of us. I don't want to have to use an idol to assume the majority, but it scares me.

I know that I have the power to completely change this tribe but I don't know if it is too early. But I picked David Wright as my player to represent me for a reason. I am loyal to the people I am with and I can't lose my allies. It's going to be a very difficult decision when tribal quickly approaches, and it will lead the way for my game, and possibly others.

When I heard Luke say "I have the idol" I nearly crapped my pants in joy. I really was conflicted about whether or not to tell people I had the idol, and I see Luke has one. It's really making my day!

Right now I am a bit nervous about the vote because I am scared it might be a tie. I hope this vote goes our way though, because if one of us is out, even if 4 of us voted against someone with us, those 4 would be screwed later on.

i want to flip on my old tribe soooo bad. i dont trust anyone there as i feel they are all complete sheeps (mearl and crow). i love them personally but they would betray me if offered a better deal. dan and I aren't close haha. i have to get some connections with the vets asap!!

Tribe swap! Whaddaya know! The split was......good and bad? I hope us former Meskwaki aren't targeted for having 4 of us, but hey, my alliance with Dan/Matt will help me here. PLUS I HAVE KYLE which means I didn't make a fatal error making a good alliance with him early (phew!) <3 Little scared that this might turn into a numbers scramble though....4 returnees, 4 Meskwaki, 1 Odawa, with 1 person on the clear bottom of both former Wyandot and Meskwaki here.....mess!

With the number of advantages/idols in this game (and the fact that I have none), I need to make sure my name is in NOBODY's thoughts as a vote because we've seen how one vote was still too many for Andreas....and if I go out, I sure as hell don't wanna go out like that!

So I asked Scott for an alliance privately.....and I'm doing it for me, not my whole tribal alliance. I don't like the numbers on the tribe because with Kyle knowingly at the bottom with a 4-4-1 split, I could VERY easily end up in the minority. Plus, I didn't really get to pick to work with my former tribe, it was just assumed, so I'm hoping that in branching out, I'll get defined as my own player and not just some former Meskwaki mafia member ready to take a bullet for the family...

YAS! We won! I somehow was the 3rd strongest (including Andreas) out of everyone which is bittersweet.....hopefully no one looks too deep into the scores or else I might develop a target. Anywho, I'm glad to be one of the last four people to attend TC! It gives me an advantage because I can keep my cards hidden for longer. Right now, without votes to go off of - people have to take my word for face-value, and that's actually a good thing considering I have conflicting alliances already...;) Weak trust is better than rivalry!

"Ew AP, I try to avoid those classes tbh lmao" I've taken 9 AP classes and have a rather nice score on both the ACT and SAT. My point? Not to brag or anything (hehe) But to show that everything I say has a purpose. I don't need the intellectual stigma to stick to me because that's instantly associated with someone like Cochran which turns me into a target!

I AM DEAD. I JUST WANT THE HOSTS TO KNOW THAT. ALSO REALLY STRAND CARSON AND I HERE ON MESKWAKI ALONE- RUDE.

I just exiled myself for a clue to the immunity idol that I most likely won't find because I'm garbage at finding them. I gave my cult alliance half of the clue in good faith- hopefully that will make them want to keep me around. I'm going to try to get them to add an additional member- hopefully Bodhi because I like him so that we'll still have majority in the next tribal council. Also i didn't give them the other half of the clue- because I want to keep some sort of advantage for myself- but my plan is if they somehow find out I have another part of the clue, then i'll tell them I got that while I was exiled as some form of reward. Importantly, I'm leaving out where I searched in hopes that none of them will make this same move I have- and I think my odds are pretty good. Also I have to find some way to tell my tribe that i'm exiled without causing suspicion..so that'll be fun.

This tribe is such a massive culture shock honestly, on Odawa the official tribe chat wasn't that active until after tribal was posted and even then most things happened afaik on the Odawa majority alliance with the most boring name in history's chat. I feel pretty damn shook being the only Odawa on here and admitedly I've been slumping in the social part (aka the most important one) but I really need to step it up here especially on a bigger tribe

How I'm bouta be http://68.media.tumblr.com/19a93d31ca6d8a001a346ef9ccf151db/tumblr_o6pkqvpFBQ1twwci1o1_1280.jpg

I deadass typed OwO unironically what is wrong wi th me

Back in another game I played, there was a weak, physically inept player than just always managed to avoid elimination despite nearly always being the target, due to being in numerous alliances at once, and stupid ass people voted strong players out over himself. Come merge he would make insane idol plays and manage to take out all the large threats while keeping himself off the radar. He made finals but lost, but the VL flew into a rage. God I wish that were me....

TRIBE SWAP!!!!!! Ok, so we ended up with 3 former Meskaakaikaikaia, 2 returnees, and everyone from my tribe except Scott RIP 😥. Right now, the plan I to stick together and try to pull one or two of the other newbies in to take out the returnees. Oh yeah, and we voted out Matt BYE FELICIA

Grrrrrrrrr, we lost. I'm not mad about that, I'm mad that my alliance wants to get Adam out. I want to get Carson out. I want to get him out because A: He is a returnee B: He did the worst in challenges & C: He will probally align with Andreas. So I am suuuuuuuppppppeeeeerrrr pissed. I want CARSON GONE. Everyone is voting for Adam tomorrow. I might throw my vote to Carson just in case Adam has an idol

This swap is dangerous for some of my allies. I am very confident that I will make it out alive, just because there's no good reason for anyone to target me, but I'm not as confident that Kage will. I'm setting him up as a nice big target, and I have been since the beginning, so I wouldn't be so surprised if he were to be taken out now. I don't have any desire to vote Kage out, but if others do, I can join in. He'll bring me as far as he can, and I don't mind that one bit. He thinks he's in charge, so I'll let him stay there until the time is right. His gameplay is so erratic that I don't really think that he has a chance to win. Even if he gets to the end, there's this whole smear campaign from the kind folks over at redemption, which essentially sets him up as the villain. In reality he's fun to be around, but when he votes people out, he gets VERY rude. He gave Matt and Ashton fake advantages, and expects them to be gracious now that they're out? I don't think so buddy. As far as new allies, I really like Dana and Carson. I get along just fine with Eric, Adam, and Luke. I think I'll be very alright in this swap! Aidan is still my number one, but past that, I don't really care who I vote with. As long as I can trust that they'll keep me around until later, I don't quite mind.

So somehow Kage has come into power yet again on this new tribe! First on Odawa, he makes every decision, and we all go with him. Now here, because of Dana being sent to exile, it's an 8 person tribal council, and the 4 Odawa here are staying strong, and we've also included 3 non Odawa in the plan to eliminate Adam. Tonight, Adam is probably going, but there is a slight chance that the other 4 don't want to be on the bottom of this tribe, and they're just playing us, planning to take Kage out with an idol, or maybe forcing a rock draw. If there's the threat of going to rocks this early, I might have to flip on Kage. I don't want him out, because he is a PHENOMENAL shield, one of the best possible, but I also don't want a 1/6 chance of myself going home third. I have confidence that if I were to flip in the case of a tie, taking Kage out, I'd be fairly safe after that point. I have good connections with Aidan, Christian, Dana, Carson, Eric, and Luke. The only person on this tribe that I can't see myself working with is Adam, and that is exactly why I got Kage to target him. I'm not too firmly in any alliance at this point. There's the Odawa 5, the cross tribal alliance with Kage, Crow, Eric, and myself, and there's a bunch of openings with the other folks on my tribe. I'm only dedicated to sticking with Aidan, because we are such similar people. But I'm not entirely sure if I want to go to the end with him. I also don't plan to flip on Kage unless I need to in order to stick in the game. He is a shield and a goat in one, why would I ever get rid of that? Some people would look at going to two tribal councils early in the game as a curse, but I think it's quite the contrary. Hell, looking back, I probably should've thrown those challenges entirely! I was careful not to be too helpful on either, which probably was outright better than throwing, because it doesn't put a target on me, but I had absolutely no reason to want to win those challenges if the swap was going to be like this, with two equally sized tribes, this early in the game. Going to tribal council builds a large amount of trust, and if I had not gone to any tribals, I doubt I would trust Kage and Christian this much at all. I'd also have the chance to be on a tribe with a Matt or an Ashton, who are both great people, but neither of them felt like people I could put my trust in. Kage did a great job eliminating all of the obvious strategists, aside from himself, so now I don't think anyone from Odawa will flip on me any time soon. The other two tribes barely have any trust in each other. The other newbie tribe never went to tribal, and while people definitely talked, no one knows who is on their side and who is against them. The returnee tribe had a unanimous vote with an idol play. They only voted who they did because of inactivity, so they clearly weren't completely in the thick of the strategy. I'm definitely not laying as low as I want to be, but I don't think that I'm too noticeable as a threat. I might be the second biggest visible threat on Odawa, but that's probably not true. I'm not at all worried for Scott. He's on a tribe with 4 people from each of the other two starting tribes, so he's in the perfect spot to align with one of those two, and cruise for a bit. If he gets voted out, it's because he's playing poorly. I'd vote out a returnee in his position, but I trust that he'll play smart.

I HAVEN’T DONE A CONFESSIONAL IN SO LONG WHOOPS SO ANYWAY HERES WHATS HAPPENED SINCE I LAST DID THIS BASICALLY, WE WENT TO TRIBAL AGAIN (BIG SURPRISE) AND VOTED OUT MATT. IT WAS HIGHKEY SO BEAUTIFUL BC BODHI AND SCOTT BOTH PLAYED FAKE ADVANTAGES OR IDOLS, GIVING US OUT REP AS THE FAKE IDOL TRIBE, AS WELL AS INTRODUCING THE WORLD TO THE BEAUTY THAT IS THE IMMUNITY SNATCHER. SO IT ALL GOES TO PLAN, AND WE’RE ALL CHILLING IN THE CHAT, KAGE INSULTING BOTH THE HOSTS THE FUCKING DUMBASS, AND THEN WE GET THIS EXCHANGE: [00:40:40] kage hamilton: Plz forgive and give me free advantage? [00:41:10] Isaiah (Great Lakes Host): Lol, you'll get something alright AND THEN I GET FUCKING KICKED FROM THE CHAT?? SO IM SITTING THERE CONFUSED OUT OF MY GODAMN MIND, WHEN IM ADDED TO ANOTHER TRIBAL CHAT- MESKWAKI!! AND IM SHOOK BECAUSE IT’S A FUCKING SWAP??! BUT WE CAME OUT OF THIS SO WELL TBH, 4/5 ODAWA REMEBERS ARE TOGETHER ON MESKWAKI AND WE ONLY NEED ONE MORE TO AVE MAJORITY AGAIN. IN THE TIBE WE’VE GOT ME, OBVIOUSLY, THEN MY BOIS BODHI KAGE AND CHRISTIAN FROM ODAWA, CARSON AND DANA FROM THE RETURNEE TRIBE, AND THEN ADAM, LUKE AND ERIC THE OG FROM MESKWAKI. I’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT EVER SINCE WE MERGED, AND I THINK CARSON AND DANA MIGT BE OUT BEST SHOT AT AN ALLIANCE. THEY’RE TOTALLY ISOLATED ON THE TRIBE, SO EVEN IF THEY FLIPED ON US AFTER WE GO TO TRIBAL FOR THE FIRST TIME, THEY’D ONLY MANAGE TO MAKE IT EQUAL, AND I THINK THEY’RE PROBABLY THE BIGGEST THREATS HERE, AND YOU KNOW WHA THEY SAY- KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE AND YOUR EMEMIES WITHIN FIRING RANGE OF YOUR PRIMARY FIREARM (IM SORRY FOR THE RVB QUOTE LMAO) I MEAN, DANA ALMOST WON HER SEASON, SO SHE KNOW WHAT SHES DOING, AND SOMEONE THAT KNOWS OW TO DO THAT IS DEFINATLY SOMEONE I WANT ON MY SIDE WE’VE ALSO GOT A CHALLENGE AND IM SCREAMING BECAUSE I CAN’T SPELL OR TYPE SO MY SCORE IS GOING TO BE SHIT BUT HOPEFULLY I CAN FINNALLY WIN A CHALLENGE IN THIS GAME, AMIRITE? *SLIDES AUSTIN AND ISAIAH TWENTY DOLLARS* I ENDED UP SUMBITTING A SCORE OF 2568, WHICH I THINK IS OKAY?? BUT THEN AGAIN ANDREAS GOT LIKE 24K ON LAKE REDEMPTION SO I HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE WHATS A DECENT SCORE ANY MORE. ALL THAT’S LEFT TO DO NOW IT WAIT, AND SCREAM INTERNALLY.

Just once I would really love to not go to tribal. Oh well, back to pre-tribal hell it is.

Hey you guys, its me. Its Andreas, and welcome to my episodial confessional. So I won the duel. I'd love to say im surprised, but once again I misted another newbie into not doing well. MY EFFECT HUH ?? So I dont have much to say, besides that I hope Kage comes here so I can show him who the worse player is, and then my homeboy Carson can be safe. Also, I found an idol clue and its so much effing searching. That can literally choke. Not much is happening on Lake Redemption. Im getting to meet everyone which is nice. I hope im not here for long, otherwise ill cry.

So fuckity fuck fuck fuck. WHY DO I NEVER WIN CHALLENGES? IT'S THE DAY I WAS PUSHED OUT OF A VAGINA, WHY DOESN'T THAT MEAN ANYTHING????????? anyways, oh well. tribal again. i'm used to it. i don't trust kage. i don't really trust anyone on my tribe. I feel like everyone is playing super hard and trying to have 324934 different alliances and i'm just a fat squirrel eating whatever pieces of food they drop for me. ugh. good luck self. I do have a solution though, because I know how Dana got to get exiled, and I know that's exactly what I'm doing to myself if i get through this.

um heyyy its (week?) 3 idk we're about to have the third tribal. we lost immunity after the swap and ive been swapfucked before so i really didnt want to be swapfucked again but guess what! i did nothing and apparently kage and bodhi are already gunning for me.................... WHY they literally gave me a valid reason for carson to be voted out and are voting ME out for what reason?? idk. anyway im in an alliance with eric luke carson and dana (who cant vote) and ive been talking to aidan and hes super cool so i should be okay? i think? the only person on my tribe i 100% trust is luke. i wish dan was here. he formed the alliance between he luke and i :( eric luke and carson want to get out kage but idc who it is as long as its not me. luke said we might go to rocks... UGHHH why is this happening.

Okay so we won again and I still haven't been to tribal *dab* so that's lit. I'm glad I'm not going to tribal because I've made virtually no connections on my new tribe. I plan on being loyal to crow and Matt. We pulled in Kyle for a number (I know gross but hey whatevs) and I think we have stoner and maybe Seth (honestly unsure if there is actually a Seth in this game I just can't think of his name rn) but yeah. I'm just pretending to like Korean dramas so roxy likes me.

This just in his name is Scott not Seth. Huh.

Stoner, Stoner, Stoner. Sorry but he's a stupid ass. He sent me to redemption island despite the fact that I am the strongest person in this tribe for challenges, not to mention i have done redemption island before AND won 4 duels. He wasn't thinking straight tbh

Bye Andreas! Actually v v sad to see you go. I have a lot of thoughts. I'm going crazy right now after first tribal- i'll write again once i get to my boring ass class in a few hours.

Too much has happened for this damn confessional- but here I go. I like most of the people on my tribe. Augusto and Stoner are playing really hard- but I like both of them. I like Carson- don't know him well though. Emmon is nice but not in any formal alliance with me. I don't really know what's up with Roxy- she's cool, bur we haven't really clicked too much. First tribal had me dying. Like i didn't know Stoner at all- but he's a player. He's going to play hard and he's going to try to manipulate me- and I know that, so hopefully I can correct for that to keep myself safe. I don't know how he got the idol, but he did, so that totally changed my strategy. Right after tribal- my alliance situation Got CRAZY. I'm in 3 different alliance situations, 1) Me, Roxy, Carson, Augusto- Augusto got me in on this one to my knowlege. 2)Me, Stoner, and Augusto- Augusto and I created to get Stoner on our side. 3) Me, Carson, Augusto- the supposed "core 3"- initially the plan was to bring Carson into the alliance with Stoner, but I know Stoner doesn't want that- even though Augusto seems to think he does- so i'm just trying to prevent that from blowing up. Honestly I have no idea who to trust. Augusto and I decided to get close to Stoner so we can protect ourselves from him- which i think is a good strategy for now. Augusto has been my closest ally this whole game, and I have no reason not to trust him, because he has shared so much information thus far, but Stoner has started warning me abour Augusto- likely to make me paranoid. So as a result, I am becoming paranoid, but right now i'm going to table that paranoia and keep going. I know Augusto is playing hard, and as much as I like him and hate being disloyal- I think it will have to happen perhaps sooner rather than later. Now onto idols and shoreline. So far no alliances have come out of shoreline for me- and honestly I don't know when/ if they will, that isn't really my focus right now. In terms of idols, I'm almost positive someone else on our tribe has one right now. I think it could be Carson or Roxy- maybe Emmon, and also less likely, but still possibly Augusto if he's lying to me. Augusto showed me the olace where the idol was- and i'm so mad because if I hadn't been out to dinner I would have used the 87xx code we had to look for the idol myself. I think what likely happened is that Stoner told Carson/ someone else outside of our alliance chat about the 8 clue- who also knew about the 7 clue from Augusto and maybe that person had another number we dont know about- or they just tried all possible combos and got the idol. And if that is what happened, only a few people have all that information, me being one if them, but I didn't find it. Augusto thinks there could be a tribe swap- which tbh would make me die because I feel pretty good about my spot on my tribe right now.

I went to the shoreline right after tribal knowing that at least Andreas who got voted out would be there to chat with me. I couldn't search so I tried to get information about his tribe and who and who not to trust. I feel like if I am at the merge and he wins the duel to return we can work together but I will have loyalty to myself, then the Gallaghers, then other allies like Andreas, and ending the pyramid with "strangers." My "Loyalty Pyramid" needs to stay intact or I will never make it as far as I hope to, and I won't be able to achieve the goals I want to in this game.

Listening to this mashup on headphones sounds like you died and a bunch of ghosts are screaming in your ear while your least favorite artists just sing songs you don't like. Not fun... I like it (xD)

I will download this mashup, get my friend to make a program that makes it look like I'm brutally destroying my file and then put the mashup in it so i can see it rip and die. And then I will be like "Try breaking my ears again, try me b*tch"

So apparently Jordan Pines visits are tribe and then leaves and I am like "You will be missed.. maybe??"

I love the tribe I am in! Everyone works hard, but I feel one person is setting themselves apart from everyone else. Some people have told me that they didn't enjoy Kyle's attitude during the last immunity challenge, and I would have to agree. There was a bit of an attitude where it didn't belong, especially when he was the same person that could of sent us to tribal for not being at the challenge in time.

Yay!! I am so glad that we won tribe immunity again! Shows how strong of a tribe we truly are!

I'm glad that Andreas won this duel. He's been telling me the tea about what's been going on, and it's been helping me know who to trust and who not to trust.

I feel like with the shoreline twist, who gets voted out is more important than ever. We all know everyone from the other tribe, whether they can be trusted, if they are nice, good at challenges, etc. And we can also chat with eliminated contestants who get an infinite stay until they either win the final duel or lose a duel, and they hear and see all. There is a lot of strategy that goes into it and hopefully gaining trust with Andreas helped gain trust.

Nobody is really taking any initiative on this tribe when we have tribal council in just a few hours. I didn't want to be the one who led a vote on the first day but that seems like what is happening. Since nobody is coming up with an alternative plan I just suggested that Matt should be targeted. Hopefully all goes thoigh and I stick around for this vote.

I'm fucking pissed off. Kage is telling me that I'm getting all the votes today and it's really making me mad. I don't know what his deal is now he's saying it was a joke or that he's playing his idol on me. Honestly I don't care anymore these people are idiots if they really want to get rid of someone who tried there hardest to help the tribe and didn't fuck up at the challenge even once. Whatever I don't care anymore

So I'm going home today. Kage gave me the idol but it's definitely fake. I'm gonna fight my hardest at redemption island when I get there though.

Well that fucking sucks. Everyone on my tribe are a bunch of liars. Whatever I'm gonna win my way back.

I realized I did like 500 confessionals for the last round and not this one, sad :( Well, not too much has gone on this round... which is perfectly fine with me. An alliance did start though between Dana, Carson, and myself. Roxy, being the lovely queen that she is, wanted us 3 in an alliance with her so the stars aligned perfectly there. Dana and I are trying to work whatever angle we can to get Stoner to be loyal to us and it's paying off, yay!

So, I've been trying to get everyone on the tribe to tell me where and where not to look at the Shoreline because I am power hungry and need an idol. Eventually, I did come across something... an EMPTY chest! I had a chance and obviously blew it, go me <333 I will find a way to get that idol! I spent my last moments in Bhutan trying to look for one because I was for sure going home, but I'm not letting that happen again.

I am SHAKEN TO THE CORE by the fact that Wyandot won immunity and Andreas stayed in the game. Like, my last tribe (Sarpang) was a hot mess and things seem to be shaking up for the better, which I'm thankful for! I'm glad we won immunity because I did not want to vote someone out and get blood on my hands. I am not a sociopath or a psycho murder, so that blood can gladly remain where it is. I just want Wyandot to remain on a streak of some sort cause lord knows I need it. #Pray5Me

A thought keeps seeping into my head for whatever reason and that thought is a potential swap. A swap would throw a major curve ball towards us and put a wrench in everything I've worked towards thus far. Plus, it's way too early for one but the hosts probably love to see us suffer so it doesn't matter, sadly! I probably need to visit the Shoreline once more to get a feel for people and try to seem as nice as possible. If we do swap, I would want to be with Roxy since she's a major social player and I feel as though everyone loves her and would try to save her. That being said, she needs to go sooner than later cause the sex beast is a threat, lol. Anyway, #LetsNotSwapPlz #DontDoThisToMeHosts

So Dan joined our alliance to gain majority on our tribe. It's now Eric, Matt, Dan, and I. My thoughts? Eek. I don't trust Dan. There's something about him...I feel like he's playing nice but is secretly a villain? And Eric completely exposed us to the other tribes so I doubt this will last (which is why I'm making sure my bonds stay solid) but for now, it gives me some security in my standing.....especially since Eric found an idol! (except he told too many people....) I am actually feeling closest to Matt at this current moment because we share a lot of the same thoughts about the other players!

Okay, I just went to Shoreline for the 2nd time to find half of the cast there....I thought it would be fun and relaxed, but people are giving out info, although brief info nonetheless! I know not to trust Stoner and that Julia can neither type nor shut up...(lawd). I'm a bit scared by how active this cast is, but their personalities are bound to rub each other the wrong way, so I'm actually glad there's so many loud people. Andreas being at Lake Redemption scares me though cuz that basically means no Redemption for me if I get voted out....he'll probably be the Great Lakes version of Matt Elrod!!

Ugh, I want Kyle to be more active so I can ACTUALLY work with him, but he's literally making every effort possible to isolate himself. He's weak in comps, rude to a degree, and is giving the tribe nothing, and the worst part of it all is that when he leaves, he'll blab to everyone that I had an alliance with him! (Which wasn't even ill-intentioned on my part! I truly DID want to work with him!). I hope we switch tribes before we lose so that he can get booted by another tribe or something....

So I finally got some 1-on-1 time with Andreas and got to learn the background behind the vote-offs. (Even though Eric already filled me in privately considering he talked to Andreas first). Kage, like my instincts told me, is not to be trusted. He criticized Ashton for playing too hard too fast but here he is doing exactly the same thing....foolish. Anyways, I'm really liking my social game right now. Eric clearly trusts me the most as he's told others to trust me (and only me) while Matt has confided in me about his skepticism of Eric. Dan.....not so much, but I think that's just because Dan is too busy irl for a virtual social game. I have a bond with Kyle and Luke and I'm on good terms with Adam. Hopefully this tribe can survive til the tribe swap so that I can have a lot of human resources at my disposal =)

WOW! What a tribal that was! First off, I'm the one that gave both the fake advantages Hahahaha 👌. The vote went perfect

Whew, what a day it has been! I don't even remember my last confessional so I'll just start at the last tribal. Ok, so Ashton got voted out GOOD! Matt played the fake double vote sonner than I thought he would BAD! According to Andreas, there was a "Kage Is A Snake" party on Redemption island that I didn't know about BAD! Also apparently half my tribe was there BAD! We then lost the challenge BAD! Ashton officially got sent home GOOD! I still don't know if I can completely trust my tribe. The plan right now is to vote Matt, and tell Matt to vote for Bodhi. However, Matt says he wants to vote for me, according to Bodhi. So I have no idea if I'm going to have to face Andreas at Redemption. If I do, that would be detrimental, because he is a challenge BEAST! All I can do is trust in my bonds and pray🙏🙏🙏

So we're at tribal, and everyone is super tense! Except for me and a few others of course, who are just lying back watching everyone freak out. Then, out of nowhere, Matt whips out his double vote! But its fake! It's a fake double vote! Matt has been lied to, I bet he has lost his trust for whoever gave it to him! But then, out of nowhere again, ASHTON WHIPS OUT HIS IDOL. Everyone is like "ew, put that thing away," but he wont! He keeps waving his goddamn idol around like he's a very excited 6 year old. But its a fake! So he's gotta rip off his idol, which flops around on the floor of tribal, until someone throws it in the fire. And then Ashton is voted out, just like we'd planned from day one. Easy.

so this vote is another piece of cake. It would be easy for us to just all say Matt and go with it, but we've gone for more, out of boredom primarily. Kage is telling him that the plan is to vote me out, and I'm telling him that the plan is to vote Kage out. Matt is siding with me, which isn't the plan, but whatever, I do t mind him voting for Kage.

Bodhi sent a link to a music video with porn on it in the tribe chat and it really sounds like the singer is gonna stab me in my sleep. The challenge is going well so far in the slow but steady mindset, I'm really glad it isn't a double tribal because even though I have a safenet in the majority alliance, those fake advantages still have me shook and there's no telling what that'll do to an impressionable paranoid ass man like me.

It feels like everyone's just hopped up on some insane ass sugar because the Odawa 4 alliance is just wildt as hell and trying to do some insane stuff at the tribal to show the other tribes... which is like the most nihilistic move you could do honestly. I'm down for it and it seems like everyone else is too. Now it's time to write the best goddamn idol speech I'm never going to use in a real situation. :]

stoner: plays the idol me: https://68.media.tumblr.com/7b8d4167603a43dddaf35c15d64bf989/tumblr_nd8kgv7iZM1tcpjdeo4_1280.png

I still really don't know how stoner found that idol, but I would bet someone gave it to him. According to Dana, he was talking to the other tribes about how he was getting sent home. We probably should have seen this coming, but someone from the other tribe saw a chance to shake up our tribe. Ok so I officially have an alliance with Augusto, Dana, and Andreas, and then another with Augusto, Dana, and Julia. On top of that, I feel obligated to align with Emmon, so I could be in a pickle. The only saving grace is that we still have Stoner to get rid of, so going to tribal again isn't the end of the world. Hopefully, all of us will make it to the swap so I don't have to make a difficult choice. Having Andreas at the Shoreline is really a benefit for us. Not only is he a strong competitor and will probably beat everyone, but he's helping us look for idols and saying who's been there. He also gets all of the tea on the other tribe's dynamics so we'll know where the cracks are come the swap.

Literally me in this game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOkb604pzhI I know no one wants to work with me, but I try! I really do! And just no one has asked me to the alliances, and I've just sorta dealing with being the power bottom of this tribe. SO YEAH! Just hoping I survive long enough for a swap, I'm already accepting that I'm doomed atm, so gluck me! Sucks because I like this people, I just wish they liked me back ya know? oh well good luck Christian!

THIS SO LONG OVERDUE I'M SO SORRY. So things on my tribe are simultaneously calm and crazy.  I'm in alliance with Dan and Adam. Dan was dragged into an alliance with Crow, Eric and Matt but there's discourse over there because Dan and Matt both don't like Eric. The fact that Adam, Kyle and myself have been left out of that alliance very clearly means that they think the three of us are either a threat or too weak to help the tribe. However, the fact that Dan and Matt don't like Eric can be used to my advantage because I can team up with those two, Adam and Kyle (who wants me to watch out for him in exchange for me doing the same) and we can vote out Eric. Now...onto the best thing.....I HAVE AN IMMUNITY IDOL. I'm not planning on telling anybody that I have the idol because it can only bring bad luck to me. People can speculate but the words "i have an idol" are not leaving my mouth for the foreseeable future. Now to some opinions of my tribe mates: Dan: I've played like 3 games with Dan, we work well together, we look out for each other, I'm comfortable with him. Adam: I had never met Adam until this game but I've heard of him from the community. I think that with Dan's connection we could work really well together. Matt: I like Matt. I can tell that he's very smart and obviously knows how this game works. I'll need to keep my eye in him for sure but I want to work with him. Crow: I get alone really well with Crow on a personal level. We talk a bunch about life and the game hasn't come into it at all (which is scary af). The fact he may be hesitant of talking to me about the game means he doesn't trust me so I need to work on that. Kyle: Kyle can be too much sometimes. He's very blunt and I don't think some people in this game (Eric) will handle that very well. That being said, he said he'll look out for me. Eric: boy oh boy...this kid is SO enthusiastic about the game which is cute but it gets very overwhelming very quickly and it's easy to get annoyed by him. That being said, he's very "for the tribe" and wants us to do well which is great for us because it's helping us win.

Holy Shit. Stoner actually found the idol and used it to take out Andreas! My plan worked perfectly and nobody even knows I'm behind it. Hopefully Andreas gets eliminated somewhere along on Redemption because that guy is in a league of his own when it comes to challenges. Meanwhile we have brought Dan into our alliance which is a great step. Eric didn't want to tell him about the idol just yet because the less people that know the better at this point. Eric goes to visit the shoreline and meets its new permanent resident Andreas. Eric, for reasons I can never explain, seems to instantly trust Andreas and takes everything he says as gold. Stoner is untrustworthy and we need him out of this game... the dude just blindsided Andreas with an idol and had EVERYONE vote against him. He is not the person you need to worry about. Somewhere in his kpop-loving brain he decides to not only tell Andreas that myself and Crow are "good people" and can be trusted but also tells him how to help his allies find an idol. This was a secret I hoped only us knew for the time being, but the more concerning part in all of this is that it puts a HUGE target on my back. You don't go to somebody you don't know and tell them "trust these people and here is how to find an idol" because what they hear is "this is my alliance, oh and we have an idol!". The only semi-plausible explanation that I can think of is that Stoner, Christian and I are not the triad in this game and Eric is with Andreas somehow. But still, Eric dude, loose lips sink ships. I'm just lucky I'm in one of those two-pegged boats because I'll be hard to stop but not unsinkable. Eric is seriously annoying everybody on the tribe. Dan and I spoke after he was brought into the alliance on how we don't really trust Eric and have our concerns with that mouth of his. To gain Dan's trust some more I told him about the idol in Eric' pocket. I really wish I found that thing first. Dan and I also agreed that Kyle should be the first target, even before Eric, because of his inactivity and negativity. I confessed my part of the Andreas blindside to Dan and he was amused, he is happy to see Andreas get the boot and was happy I helped direct Stoner on how to find an idol. Bonding at its best. For the first time in this game I had a conversation with Kyle. Kyle, the super attentive tribe member asked me if I was one of the hosts for this season..... Like.... I don't have words. We fucking worked together on the 99 Bottles Immunity Challenge. Like wow. Anyways, after some talk he asks to join (more like forces me into) an alliance with him. My momma didn't raise no dummy so I say "Sure Kyle buddy, lets work together". Kyle tells me there is one person he finds really annoying on the tribe which I correctly guess is Eric because thats his M.O. right now. I mean Adam, Dan and Kyle all already mentioned to me that they find the kid irritating and I'm in an alliance with him... Kyle also informs me he doesn't like Dan because he is "too positive". Sorry Kyle but Dan's my number one ally at this point and I don't really care for you. So, of course, I tell Dan to further gain his trust and make sure Kyle is our first target. The challenge was rough. I am terrible at naming songs let alone songs being into a genre I hardly listen too. I organized the group however and tried to help as much as possible. Thankfully we pulled out the victory and took a nice second place. Second place is just as good as first place in my books when only one tribe is going to tribal. Its a shame that Andreas won the challenge, I was hoping this was one that he'd put up a beatable score in. I want to avoid tribal council as long as possible... but not because I'm afraid of it. I'm running this tribe right now and if it was us at the final 7 I'd be in the end no problem. I want to keep as many of these Meskwakians in the game as long a possible because of that and tribal means we are voting one off. Tribal is where the game happens. It's where you get to break other people's hearts and destroy their dreams so that you can try to achieve your own. People complain that they hate voting people out and I'm not heartless, it can definitely be hard... But that is what Survivor is, especially online Survivor. You strip the adventure part out of Survivor and what is left is a complex game of lying, deceit, socialization, strategy and luck where your main goal is to take out people before they can take out you. At the end of the day only a few people remain and I fully intend to be one of those people. With another immunity win under our belts I look forward to an easy 24 hours before the next challenge is posted. We will be down to 18 people which makes me a little concerned about a tribe swap as we can be redivided into two or three tribes. I think my game is good where I am at now so a tribe swap can put all of that into question, however it could also take Stoner out of a bad position and put him into a better one which definitely helps out my game. I can't worry about this though. There is no point worrying for things that you can't control. You can try and plan ahead and roll with the punches and hope that at the end of the day you have done enough to survive. Survivor is a fluid game so you have to be a fluid player; if you can't bend you will likely break.
