Instant Karma/Confessionals

Day 17
"hakra"

- We won again! We got pretty lucky this time around. As for the other tribe, Byron is out and Lex is staying which is good. If I had to guess, all of Hakra and another Lothal voted Byron out. I wonder who it was. Hopefully I'll get some insight soon.

Here we are, finally at an even 6 vs 6 tribes, and then someone might switch tribes. I have a feeling one of them will come to Hakra cuz we the winners lol

"lothal"

- What just happened? That was some bullshit right there. Ant, Lex, and Tom all knew that I would've gladly voted out Byron at any second, and supposedly we had an alliance, so why wasn't I told what was going on? Do they not trust me? It's not like I tried to keep Lex's ""blindside"" a secret. (blindside in quotes both because it was never kept secret and because it didn't even happen)

Also, I tried very hard to save Lex. I tried to rally votes away from him, but I was told that everyone already sent in their parchments. What? You had the opportunity to go for a 5-2 instead of a 4-3, therefore solidifying one more ally, and you don't take it? Why? Surely I'm trustworthy. Tom's going into damage control mode, but he still hasn't told me why I wasn't included in the plan. Apparently he thought if I was informed Byron would play an idol... what?

And now Jigme is back. Go back to Tibet, Jigme, stop harassing me. I feel like my family has the curse of Jigme, he kept attacking Vincent and now he's pulling a mutiny on me. Anyway, I took the mutiny. Why not? I don't have anyone on Lothal I trust 100%, and Hakra has XFire and Zack.

I'm actually trying to get everyone to mutiny. I'm acting like it's for shits and giggles but I'm trying to downplay my threat level. There's safety in numbers, after all, and since I've been told I don't stand out in crowds I'd be safe for a while if I forced a merge.

"lothal"

- Omg! Leave me alone with those twists :P Can I have a little break please. As soon as I get my foot on the ground again, the floor is shifting again. I feel like having to dance at a party while just wanting to sit on the side and laugh at people skills.

"hakra"

- It's probably the boring way to think but I really hope nobody mutinies, especially from our tribe. Whoever mutinies will be at the absolute bottom of the tribe from my point of view and I hope my allies will think the same.

"hakra"

- So... Me and Nick decided to take the plunge and mutiny from Lothal to Hakra. Think it was a good decision, since we were obvious targets. Really need to win immunity for Hakra now so that little alliance of theirs in Lothal will have to take one of their own down.

"hakra"

- As much as I want to bitch about mutiny and how it's gonna mess up the alliance lines I will not because IT GAVE ME A DAMN IDOL WOOOOOOOOO. God bless Nick for prodding me in the right direction. Best part of this is I know for a fact neither him nor Mark has an idol because I know where the other tribe's idol is and it would be the easiest thing for them to come here and take Hakra idol if they knew how to do it - so it's easy to assume I'm the only one with an idol in the tribe. This hypes me up so much, I hope we can avoid going to tribal until merge so I can keep it as a power boost to use there.

"lothal"

- That's how you pull off a vote!!! I feel bad for Bryon but I knew that it had to be done. You can't wait on opportunities, you have to pounce on them when they come to you! For me I felt like I wanted to create tighter bonds with Alex, Ant and Courtney. Bryon was all about staying true to the tribe and I wasn't about that at all. I want to work with a variety of people not just original tribe members. I feel like this will give me more opportunities for the rest of the game if I have more people available to work with. If I voted off Lex then it would have really limited what I could have done. I mean I still could of had a meat shield but I don't necessarily think that's a good thing in this game going the way it is. I think having Bryon in the next portion of the game would be a hindrance rather than an advantage for me in the game. I just had to make the choice. I'm actually quite surprised how quickly the other three were to jump on board but it isn't that surprising thinking back actually because they were really out of options and were gonna be the next ones picked off. So yeah the vote happened and succeeded to my joy and then we were hit with a bombshell. There would a be a mutiny opportunity. Now I really liked Nick's idea of everyone jumping ship because I doubted that people from the other tribe would come over here but yeah. BUT Lex, Ant and Courtney disagreed to it. This did put a spanner in the works and Nick and I had a chat and decided that me sticking on the tribe would be better because we could be on different sides of the spectrum and we could feed information to each other. This comes with a downside though. It means that there are only four people on Lothal now and that does put me in real danger. Nick did tell me that he would try to throw challenges if I was put in this position so hopefully, he is able to do that without putting me in jeopardy. Or we can just win the challenge without them having to throw it which is another possibility as well. But yeah I guess we will see. For me if we did have to go to tribal council I would probably want to vote out one of Lex or Ant just because I feel Courtney would feel more on board with me. But saying that I would want to vote out anyone tbh, I really would not mind, give me a name I'll write it down. I mean I would like to have a say but really I would just want to survive the vote if I went to tribal tbh so hopefully if worst comes to worst my name doesn't get thrown out.

Day 18
"hakra"

- I was kind of scared coming over to Hakra, but I actually love it. Reuniting with Zack and XFire was great, even though I had to tell them that our alliance with Tom is essentially over. I never really talked with Vi before the swap, but we caught up and I think we're good now. X and I have talked about the 5 Lothal on Hakra (me, X, Zack, Vi, Mark) running the game. That sounds great, but last time I tried an alliance of Lothal members it didn't work out.

Thankfully, I've been talking to Chieko and it looks like she might be okay with helping us out. I'm less confident in Ace, and Adam still hasn't replied to me, but Chieko gives me hope.

All of the strong challenge performers are over here on Hakra, so on paper we should be avoiding the next few tribals. I'd love to see those 4 have to turn on each other.

Day 19
"hakra"

- That's basically instant Karma, them losing the challenge. For no good reason, they decided to leave me out of the dark on the Byron vote. Mark I get, it's reasonable to assume he wouldn't have voted for Byron, but all 4 of them lost my trust.

The best part is that Mark and I both did very well in the challenge, so if they hadn't needlessly blindsided us Hakra would be at tribal tonight.

Also X was right no one on Hakra ever says anything

"lothal"

- I'm in a low mood. It really does sucks to go to 5 tribal councils out of 6. Everytime I go to tribal, I always feel like something could go wrong. I just hope I have the relationship to move myself just above the line once again. I'm not sure why I would be the right target here at least for Lex and Courtney but you never know in Survivor. It wouldn't be the first time someone's doing something against their best interest. I'm gonna try to save my butt. Let's see what happens.
