Welcome to Final 7! icon_yahoo

What do you think that last vote means for your game? It was pretty unevenly split! You voted for Angie though, are you worried about voting in the minority? And what about that stray vote for you? icon_excited

All that was was a last minute plan to split the votes in case of an immunity idol being played. I'm not in the minority as far as I know. And that stray vote was from Rich. I'm not concerned about that icon_laughing

I'm gonna do a quick run down of all my remaining castaways and the reasons why they have a good case for a win. Maybe this will help me figure out what to try to pull next.

Angie - widely considered to be a good player already and has done a great job socially. Also she's survived 2 votes now, albeit the last one intentionally. And has a very strong case for the jury. Huge threat.

Tina - at first, I considered her to be a follower. Mostly my follower, but it quickly became apparent that she definitely has her own mind and is playing for herself. She's flipped twice despite the fallout that it could cause for her and she's still here and still in our good graces. That says a lot for her game. Also a phenomenal social player. Threat level: pretty big, I think

Jeff - my partner in crime for most of the game. He's super shifty, but way more obvious about it than I am...at least I think so. And he's also a good social player. Keeping him with me would make things difficult because we've played a pretty close game most of the way. Even the alliance that kicked things off was started by the two of us. I made that pact with him, but he's a pretty big threat too, and I don't think I can abide by it. Hopefully I get more votes from the rest of the jury to make up for the one I'd supposedly lose from him.

Debb - I'm not sure. She's not that amazing socially, but she isn't awful strategically. She really is kind of a mystery in terms of gameplay, and I don't think I'm the only one who thinks this. She's mostly gone along for the ride so she'd be fairly easy to beat in the end, I think.

Carter - I also don't really know. He's had a solid physical game, but his social game (at least with me) has been rather lacking and strategically he hasn't been amazing but he hasn't been awful either. The biggest thing that worries me about him is from the challenge the other day when he was voted to be the most likely to win. I honestly don't see why, but if the majority of the players in the game think so then he'd be a bad person to be up against in the finals

Chris - barely here, literally and strategically. His flip is really the only thing he has going for him and even then he's pretty much just a follower.

This actually helped. Jeff, Tina, and Angie are the most obvious targets moving forward. I know I can get Debb on board, and if we knock out Angie next round like everyone seems keen for then maybe the two of us can make something happen. This one is definitely all about timing. I need to do the math to make sure I can get it exactly right, but I think once Angie's gone we can vote out Tina with Jeff helping, then vote out Carter as a somewhat threatening player, and then surprise Jeff. He'll hate me, but it'll be worth it if I win. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that he might still vote for me despite our little pact. Honestly, that made me want to vote him out even more. I'll bet he was one of the ones that said I "thought I was smarter than I was" or whatever the phrasing was in that challenge. I'll show them who's smart. icon_evil

Ok, I've talked with Debb about that idea I mentioned. The order of future votes. I think it's a pretty reliable plan. Tina and Jeff likely have it in their heads that they could beat me in the end, which they very well could. But they also have it in their heads that I'm following each of them to the end. Key word: following. That's where they would be wrong. I'm following no one. And if I have my way, which I will do everything in my power to get, neither of them will be in the finals. I think Debb and Chris would be the perfect partners to go to the end with. And Chris has also expressed a distaste for Tina and Jeff's move last round so I think he might be more useful than I thought. I assumed that we'd just have to drag him to the end, which I'd still like to do, I think it'd make a great case against him being not as a good a candidate for the win as me. If I can manage to drag him there with him having no say in the matter I think I'd be a lock for second at the worst. But I'm not aiming for second. Debb hasn't played a bad game, but she's played a somewhat different game than me, to be sure, which I think would be better than being up against Tina and/or Jeff in the finals. They're gonna be piiiiissed but hopefully I'll be able to explain my case to a satisfactory degree.

So I'm in a bit of a pickle. On one side I've got the original Kirati, Carter, Chris, and Angie, all of which are proving to have pretty solid games in their own rite. And then on the other I've got Tina, Debb, and Jeff, all of which I've played with closely most of this game. Angie is our target tonight, and I'm pretty confident that it's going to go down just like that. I don't see anyone straying from that plan just yet. Jeff and Tina have both mentioned staying Madhesi strong to the final 4 and trying to vote out Carter and Chris next. I don't want a Madhesi final 4. As I've said before, I think my game is too intertwined with them, particularly Tina and Jeff, and I don't think I'd be able to put up a strong case against them. But the Kirati have already made it clear that they think I'm a threat and working with all of them would almost guarantee my getting voted out at 4th at best, unless I won immunity. Not something I'm willing to risk. I'm also hearing some stuff about a Jeff/Tina/Debb final 3, which would make sense. They're talking big about wanting to go to the finals with me, but it could all be a big ruse to make me feel good about them and then they'll stab me in the back. I'm still planning on trying to take them out next round, and if I go down in flames because of it then so be it. It was worth it. But part of me wonders if I shouldn't try to make a move now. I know it'd be dumb, because it'd land me in hot water, but according to Tina, Chris mentioned that he might want to vote for me this round and all the stuff about the Debb/Jeff/Tina final 3 has me paranoid so Chris and Debb might not be with me at all and I might just be shit out of luck. I do think I've played a good game but being targeted so much as such a big threat has been both a blessing and a curse. I have the pre-established idea that I'm a threat from the jury members to build on, but my allies now have the bug in their ear that I might beat them. Tina said that she wants to be sitting next to me in the finals even though she knows I'll beat her, but really who would do that? I think she's just trying to keep me from wanting to target her. I'm going to burn so many bridges, but it'll all be worth it in the end.

So based on what Chris and Debb are telling me, Tina is stirring up trouble. I'm not surprised, she's clearly smart, but she still hasn't said anything to me about it, which makes me wonder if it's not some story that Debb and Chris made up. I think they're telling the truth just because there'd be no reason to make me think the vote is shifting to Chris that I can see. I'm just going continue my assumption that everyone is always lying to me and do what I think works best for me. And I think voting Angie works best for me. I hope Tina tries to vote me out next round. It'd be great to have a reason to use my idol. Although I'd still prefer not to have to use it.
