That'll Bite Him Eventually/Confessionals

Day 22
"trebizond"

- Wow that was a VOTE. 4-3-3-1 is insane and now a good friend of mine is gone 😞. Ugh this is just giving more power to Nadine and Nicole who need toppling imo cause they can and will run this game to the end and I'm not having that at ALL. I refuse to be taken out by them and their minions so lol they've got a shock coming. In other news though, I did get 0 votes whereas both Sam and Justin both did so that says to me that people are not viewing me as a threat which I suppose is good? I think I'm going to make myself out to be a big goat I think to get myself further. I don't like the strategy but I think it's the best one, at least going forward. Also people keep putting me in 'trios'. First it was Sam and Justin and now I think it's going round that Toby and Rhys are also in a trio with me. I might just be good at threesomes but who tf knows. What I do know is that I need to get on Nadine's good side and make her think I'm with her and the flippers, when I'm actually plotting her demise (I'm probably going to cringe reading this after the season when I'm next to leave lmaao so hi future me!)

- OMG WHAT A VOTE. Nadine, Benj, and Nicole voted for Sam I'm assuming because of the threat of an idol. The only thing that makes me suspicious is why would Nadine and Nicole be threatened about idols if they had them? Makes me think they don't even have one. Justin, Sam, and Matt voted for Nadine, and Jenna was early and voted for Nicole. Me, Toby, Rhys, and Nathaniel pulled the 4 votes together to get rid of Justin and got him out!! Some people like Rhys and Jenna are concerned that this could've been a bad move leaving Nicole and Nadine in the game, but I can become such a visible threat in orgs that I need players like them shielding me from being the target. I think this move will be ok as long as they don't start gaining too much momentum, and I'll keep an eye out for that right now.

- So, that vote went pretty perfectly. The dream 6-person majority didn't materialise, but that was half by design, and half unavoidable mistake that had been defended against. The ideal 6 was myself, Brandon (#Tobrandon), Jenna, Rhys, Matt, and Nathaniel all on Justin. However, in the end, Nathaniel and I decided that it was just slightly too risky to let Matt in on the plan, because we had numbers anyway (anticipating a 5-3-3), and Matt's perceived closeness to Justin was an unnecessary risk. The 4-3-3-1 eventuated because Jenna had already voted for Nicole, I believe, but given that we knew we'd have 3 on Nadine (useful because it proves that there were people voting her, and vindicates me to her because it shows I did actually work to get the votes off her), and 3 for one target that wasn't Nicole nor Nadine, we knew for a fact that our 4 would be fine even then (although, the 5 was the ideal plan).

Moving forward, I really need to keep my head down this vote. I've got my idol, which will probably be played soonish, but I also need to find a way to get at least half of Nicodine out. Ideally they don't win immunity, bc then it's a guessing game about where they play their idol(s). Nicole definitely has Miranta's idol, and Nadine might have Kesha's? I'm honestly unsure hahaha. But regardless, the next few rounds ought to be wildt.

"trebizond"

- I already think I’m going this round since everyone is too scared to vote Nicole and Nadine because of idols, even though Nadine doesn’t even have one... Ughh it sucks I wanted atleast 9th 😞 I might try get Rhys out since he’s basically inactive and it just seems unfair to keep someone who doesn’t care about this game, plus it breaks up the other trio.

Day 23
"trebizond"

- Yeah… Things have really really quiet all day and I know its only been 9 hours but this vibe is not good. We were hoping to form an unexpected alliance/voting block thing with Matt and Sam to vote either Nathaniel or Jenna, since we have realised San Marcos holds all the power between the 2 sides and will steamroll to the end if we don’t do anything about it.

I still want to follow through with it since its mutually beneficial but something’s telling me they might not stick with it and go to San Marcos/Rhys/Toby to try take either me out to weaken Nadcole or vote Nicole to flush her idol while she’s semi comfortable? Idk ill see what has changed when I wake up which is 3 ish hours before deadline.

If they do go against it I won’t be mad or anything they have every right to since I voted Sam twice and tried to blindside Matt so yea if this is my last day here I just wanna say thank you to the hosts for a great experience on 703, it was really fun and I’m sorry for being a disappointment again.

"trebizond"

- According to Nicole who found out from Nathaniel, Sam/Matt are back with the others and are splitting between Nadine and Nicole but I think its actually going to be between one of them and me cuz they know I don’t have an idol. Nathaniel is apparently wanting to vote Rhys and make it 4-3-3 but I don’t trust him tbh so I have one last hope and that’s seeing if Jenna wants to do something crazy and flip lol. Doubt it but maybe she will? I’ll pitch that at final 6 which is potentially San Marcos vs Rhys/Matt/Toby she could be in trouble so it would be a good opportunity to take out Rhys now while she can use me/nad/nic for votes…. This will probably backfire on me but I got nothing to lose really

"trebizond"

- so here is what I THINK is gonna happen. So the plan was to tell matt/Sam to vote Nadine, have Jenna vote for Nadine, and then have Toby, Rhys, Nathaniel, and myself vote for Nicole to split the votes. Nathaniel did just tell me was gonna side with Nicole/Nadine/Benj to vote for Matt, but admitted that in the end I convinced to him to vote for Nicole instead. It's a never good idea to show signs of wavering, that'll bite him eventually. Thank god I'm wearing the immunity necklace because this might get very crazy. One of nicole/nadine leaving is optimal.
