Confessional writing in this game is required. This is where you should be posting your thoughts on the game.

Of course, my alliance with Tom and any other alliance I may (somehow) acquire couldn't hurt... 5. Any other comments: The satisfaction of helping another human being is all the thanks I etc.

Week 1:
Well, this round has been pretty good. We managed to win with 2 people not doing the challenge, and I'm starting to meet some neat people on the tribe which are likely to become alliance partners in the upcoming rounds. We'll see though.
(Don't expect all confessionals to be half-hearted lol)

ROUND 3:
So far, this has been a great game. Our tribe is up by 3 members, and even though Cirie won immunity, we are going to get rid of an inactive member of our group, either Parvati or Ashley. I'm nervous about a tribal swap coming into play, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Round something:
Okay, I have a confessional to make...I personally don't get why confessional writing is required. Nobody's really going to see it until the end, and even then people might not see it, so, what's the use?
And now for something completely different.
I'm getting along with pretty much everyone in the tribe, so it will be tough to decide who to pick (besides my alliance of course) if we go to tribal counsel. Of course, at this rate, we'll probably never have to go anyway.
......(sighs) Writings are tough when you have nothing to write about (takes swig of Sprite)

Round whatchamacallit:
Well, interesting things happened today. Tom and I are going to the village. But it seems like either Danielle is lying about finding a bad item, or Erik is lying about Danielle getting a good item. I'm almost positive it is Erik because he also told me he didn't go to any part of the village when we saw that he was still moderator of the church. We will see what happens next at Tribal Counsel.

Week Merge:
After the results of the challenge came up, I'm glad none of the pre-jurors came in first, let alone in the game. I have a feeling I would be one of the main candidates to go home based on how well I've done so far.
Now, I am hoping that Tom, my main alliance partner, survives this round. The other members in my alliance worry me though. One of them, either Boston Rob or Jenna, told Erik that I was gunning for him for lying about not being in the same spot that he claims to have gone (or not gone) Both Tom and I saw that he could only have gone to the church. NOT the market. And NOT none of the sections. And Boston Rob or Jenna told him that. I have an idea of who, but I'm waiting to gather more edvidence first before I try to get either of them out.

Round something:
I know it's been a while since I've done this, so I have a lot to say.
It turns out that Jenna is the snake. According to Tom, she used a rose to try to get Tom out by giving to Erik. It didn't work so well, so now Jenna has wasted a rose for nothing.
I'm happy with the auction results, especially since I've gotten a lot of good items. Tom didn't (2 self votes), but we can work around that with my spray bottle. Luckily, though, we're both immune for BOTH of the tribal counsils. So now we're trying to figure out who to vote for.
Now, here's the thing. Earl has expressed interest in getting Boston Rob out...but to Boston Rob. Why he did that, I have no idea, but we know he's a threat. We currently have Boston Rob, me, Tom, Ozzy and MAYBE Jenna and Spencer voting for him. I'm worried about his "Palm" item, but if he has to use it to stay alive, then so be it. It would take the palm out of the equation.
Then if all go well, Jenna is next. We'll see what happens in the first round.
I'll make a list of people's items a little later after I vote.

Heh, well...this is interesting. It turns out that everyone betrayed us and voted for Boston Rob, except for Rob himself, who voted for Elizabeth of all people. So, I don't know if he did it to betray us as well, but one thing is clear. Tom and I are against everyone else in this game.
However, it doesn't mean that we are out of this game. Not by a long shot. With our combined items, we can definitely conquer this game.
See, it's 2 against 6 now. Tom is using his idol to immune Elizabeth, because she's the most likely target due to her being inactive (and her being eliminated after the challenge). With us immune, they have to vote out one of their own, or even better, US voting out one of them. AKA, Jenna the liar.
After this happens and one of them are gone, we have three ways to keep safe (being that one of us gets immunity (or maybe even if not)). ONE: If I'm immune, I go to the village with my key, get an idol from the church, and use it to save Tom. TWO: If Tom's immune, I overwhelm someone with my two roses and the spray bottle, giving someone 4 extra votes against them. THREE: Tom's stick, activating Big Brother mode. If one of us get HoH, both of us are safe for the round.
Those 3 options plus our strategy this tribal counsel gets us 4 eliminations. 4 people of the opposing team voted out. Therefore, it will be down to 2 vs. 2 and fair playing ground. It may be (somewhat) of a long shot, especially since the others have items too, but it's the only shot we have.
BRING IT ON!!!
Items: Me: Rose x2, Key, Elixir (challenge re-do), Spray Bottle Tom: Idol, Salt (bad), Tea Cup, Stick Jenna: Exlir (?), Sand Grain Earl: Palm, Seashell (worthless)

Hmm, well the first plan backfired a little bit. However, using the key turned out better than I thought. I can immune myself and Tom at the same time with the idol I found in the village. This is probably a predictable move, but with 2 self votes to Tom because of his salt, I can't risk not immuning him if they pull a fast one and vote for Tom anyway, and this is another round we both survive in.
