Nothing Was the Same/Confessionals

Day 29

“	Perry gone, me most likely to win challenges now, me still having that key thing, me is very happy, me is kinda surprised that it was this close, me is kinda sad doe The funny part, I think Joe actually has the idol now because neither Nuno nor Perry played one, Sam is too dumb to get anything, I certainly doubt Domo would have two, Szymon/Evan would tell me, so I believe Joe probably has the idol which means we could very well see a blindside in the future :- ) I wonder if I should give the key to someone in minority, in order for them to trust me....... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm My thought process is, if I give the round skipper to Nuno, I could very very well gain his trust and get his vote at the final 8 tribal, and that is a valuable vote in order for me to blindside Joey Boy	”
–Alex

“	I feel like this is my messiest game. I got #exposed, #targeted and won and used an express pass. ALL IN THE SAME WEEK. WHEW. AND I AM SAFE FOR A DOUBLE TRIBAL??? ALEX BLESS YOU	”
–Nuno

“	I made up...... a master plan I need to win immunity, like need LMAO and then first off we pick off Sam very fucking easily because idc, then for the second one I really want to blindside Joe... so I sort of decided to potentially make a Natalie SJDS F5 move and play my idol on Sarah, out of all people, and with me/evan/szymon basically ensure that Joe walks the fuck out That way I have BOTH, Sarah AND nuno at final 7, along with my alliance with me and only two people pissed off at me...... pretty much exactly like in Minoan Empire and you see how it worked out there, this could be the walk to glory Seriously this is such a hardcore risk, but this is survivor and I clearly don't give a shit what I have to do in order to make it to the end LMAO, I'm here to play and win and not sheep and get 5th, fuck that 6 person alliance at final 9, I like the people but like.... um..... yeah...... no..... this ain't gonna last Alright, I clued Sarah in, now, BEFORE the challenge and if anything leaks I know it was her, so if she is smart she decides not to tell anyone and she might buy herself 2 - 3 rounds in this game	”
–Alex

“	So Perry's gone. In a last ditch effort he managed to basically steal away Nuno's allies in Sarah and Sam and get them to put Nuno's name down. Man what the FUCK. That's two tribals in a row I expected some votes on me, but I'm not complaining. So even when it seemed obvious for Perry to go, the vote was a tight one, 6-4. He was expecting my vote but I couldn't keep him, no way, but we did have nice talks outside of the game, he's a good guy, and I'll miss his energy around the tribe chat. And hey, it's final 9. I WASN'T 8-2'ED. WHOOP WHOOP. ON TO THE NEXT ONE. MAAAN. Double tribal is gonna be LIT. What I just did (METAPHORICALLY) was the equivalent of planting an explosive underneath the camp.... aaand having no one know that I put it there. Tribal council? IT'S GOING OFF. The story - Alex, who trusts me 100% to go to the end with him and Szymon, gave up his item to Nuno, and reluctantly enough, when Nuno played it, he got to escape TWO tribals in a row. He did this to establish trust with him, and I told him that I'll play it off as if Nuno had it all along. Then Alex pitched the idea of blindsiding Joe the second tribal after getting rid of Sarah or Sam, while mentioning Tyler as the swing vote, as there'll be 7 votes that second tribal. So immediately I'm at a fork in the road. Except it's really not. I know I can probably get Tyler to lean either way. If I go with Alex's plans, I'm gonna have to establish a relationship with Nuno on like Day fucking 30. Nuno would obviously trust Alex more than me. I would blindside Joe, someone who has trust in me, and then I have an enraged Dom with 2 idols out to take anyone's heads off, then someone like Sarah just floating along. Also someone I haven't established a relationship with. So I'd be walking into the valley of DEATH. Orrrr I can do this. Make a 4-man group of myself, Tyler, Joe, and Dom. Get out of double tribal with a combo of Alex/Szymon and Sam/Sarah gone, and roll with that group to the end. That's my most ideal path. They'd be willing to get rid of Nuno, Sam, and Sarah. Especially Tyler. Rolling along with Alex's plans forces me to temporarily work with people I haven't said a word to yet in this game. And that's just insanity on my part. So I already spilled the beans to Joe. He's ready. Tyler's ready as well. I'll talk to Dom later. The tricky part now is how to approach this tribal. Because there's idols in the air and we don't know who has immunity yet. After these tribals, it's safe to say - nothing was the same. Also I'm demanding that 'nothing was the same' be the episode title. My confessionals sound like gamebot bullshit. There. I added flare to all of this. Also it's a great album. MAKE THIS THE EPISODE TITLE. NOTHING WAS THE SAME.	”
–Evan

“	Perry is out the door and the Death Machine's already want to kill each other. Sooner than expected but whatever. Alex wants to get rid of me at the 2nd Tribal so right now, we have to blast Alex at the first Tribal because he believes we will be splitting the vote on Sam and Sarah. Alex has the idol so it's gonna be tricky. After Alex, we gotta blast Sam or Sarah. After that, well I don't know. Maybe Nuno, maybe Sarah, maybe Szy. I just know that if this works, I'm gonna have a ton of fun deciding who goes.	”
–Joe

“	so I'm setting up Alex for a blindside. His plan to get Joe out is gonna fail because I already have 3 votes on him already. Hopefully Evan and Sam (?) will be on board we can take Alex out at the first tribal and after him maybe Sarah. With Sam & Nuno still here, it takes Tyler and Evan's sights off me and puts them on the two of them. After they are gone, I could get rid of Evan and Tyler potentially	”
–Domonique

“	Perry has left and ngl it was a tough vote. As much as I wanted to vote Nuno, I felt I had more to gain moving forward if I stuck with everyone else and voted Perry out. I feel bad especially because right after Zane left I told him I wouldn't vote him out, but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes. So now we're final 9 and from what I've heard, Alex gave his key to Nuno to protect Nuno this round and subsequently the 2nd tribal of this round. I'm pissed, I feel like I've been very vocal with making Nuno the person I'm going after, so if Alex did save him then I don't have anything stopping me from helping in the effort to blindside him. If you take away a Lion's food it'll eat you instead. It sounds like it's gonna be a showdown between Dom and Joe and Szymon and Alex (with maybe Szymon not even being with Alex bc I think Szymon is upset about the key thing), which would leave Evan and I in the middle. Evan and I have talked and if Evan is being truthful to me, he feels the same way I do about how we should stay on Dom and Joe's side as working with Alex now means we're likely working with the beauties who want us out. The other possibility as always is that they've got this all made up to blindside me. With all of this, I'm either in a pretty decent position going into this tribal or I'm on my last few days in the game.	”
–Tyler

“	FUCK WINTERBELLS. Fuck it. I hate it. With all my heart. Actually, not really. What I DO hate are flash games. Sometimes. And I have a theory on them. Which I'm sure is 100% true. SO TO ALL THE NEWBIES OUT HERE OR ANYONE THAT WANTS SOME ADVICE. Flash games are always 50% skill and 50% repetition. REMEMBER THIS. Repetition is a big part of playing games like these. You will always start out doing something terribly. That is an unavoidable truth. It takes a while to acclimate yourself to the game. That's half the battle. The other half is raw talent and skill. So winterbells? WELL, I'M LACKING THE REPETITION PART. I'm out of my league here. Apparently some people around here can score in the billions, even the trillions. Sooo no immunity for Evan today. I hope someone's insane enough to beat Alex though. If not, things are gonna get dicey, hopefully Sarah and Sam can go back to back.	”
–Evan

“	Sam's plan now is to cover the tribe flag with shit and pigs blood. And also win this challenge. And maybe if I feel like it, try to put myself in a majority for the first time since the tribe swap. Save my soul	”
–Sam

“	OMG ALEX LITERALLY GAVE HIS KEY AWAY TO NUNO WHAT KIND OF GAME DO YOU WANNA PLAY ALEX ILY BUT YOU ARE JUST DIGGING YOUR OWN HOLE TO ME [[1]] <Voice confessional	”
–Szymon

“	fuck winterbells	”
–Tyler

Day 30

“	I know i can't talk shit because I'm safe but Joe panics really fast Panicking causes you to do dumb shit	”
–Domonique

“	Challenge results are up, Domonique wrecks the comp and now she's locked up till Final 7. She has two idols left. So she's basically immune till Final 5. Yeah safe to say I'm glad I chose to stick with her since the swap. So, I NEVER want to get too overconfident but I think I've successfully paved a path for myself and 3 others to get to the Final 4. Myself, Domonique, Joe, and Tyler. If us 4 play our cards right and get out of this double tribal alive, we're up 4-3 until the end of this game with all the reamining immunity idols on our side. Fan-FUCKIN-tastic. I'd also like to believe that I made this group happen. I managed to dictate some people's paths this game as I could just have easily joined Alex and Szymon until the end. But I can't, nope. They're too social and tight in with the minority I want nothing to do with. It's never too early to start thinking of an FTC resume and making this group to run to the end is something I'd like to mention. Of course, there's lots of game left to play. I'm not taking my foot off the gas pedal at ALL. In fact, I'm fucking accelerating. So Joe and Domonique want Alex gone THIS tribal. The plan is to play up to the charade of our final 6 alliance and pretend the plan is Sam and Sarah to go back to back. Alex wants to make a move, but at the second tribal. This is the time he's off guard. 5 is the magic number, as much as I would like to see Dom get rid of an idol, she's gonna try to flip Sam to make it a 5-3 vote to blindside Alex. If this works, Szymon is left in a daze, Sarah and Sam will probably be just glad to survive, and then my final 4 group can decide who to vote next. Preferably? I want it to be Sam. I'm gonna hate putting Alex's name down. He was fantastic to play with and talk to inside and outside the game. And he was fucking hilarious. This game's a business trip for me though, and I'll have plenty of time to make amends when this is all said and done. I'm getting this ring.	”
–Evan

“	I've been thinking about idoling out Evan for a while now. I just need to decide when to do it. I think Szymon, Joe & Tyler are probably my biggest obstacles to get over to win the whole thing. I just don't want to fuck up and make the wrong move and then screw myself over ugh	”
–Domonique

“	Ok so, Sam approaches me and tells me that him and Sarah are interested in blindsiding Joe right now, and frankly, I am actually not even against it at all, who knows if they are not planning shady shit against me either? Also @ Joe not saying anything about Evan's split plan, I see you right there and then throwing your "I'm good with that", no shade they are probably planning a blindside themselves but guess what, if I convince Evan and Szymon to vote Joe, your ass is gone lololol This is the best time for a blindside, because I was approached about what I would do in a split revote and with Joe asking me all this stuff and me feeding him bullshit, the likeliness of him expecting anything is probably a 0, slayoncé And Sam tells me Domonique asked him about the possibility of getting me out, HAAAAAAAAAA, GOTCHAAAAAAAA, as they say, take a strike against the people that will strike first or you will be the victim first and I might as well open all the doors to #blindsidejoe tonight, I'm excited	”
–Alex

“	Fuck Sam. He is such a god awful player. How the fuck is he an all star? Does he think being a shitty rat is good gameplay? It just makes you the joke of the season. Like stop trying Sam, you lost this game at the cast reveal. Also Szy can eat shit. I'm so done with him. He knows Alex's plan to get rid of me yet doesn't tell me DESPITE him saying I was his number one AND saving his ass on Torrin when Luke and Perry wanted him out. Evan is trying to calm me down, saying Szy may not want to do it but fuck that. He didn't tell me straight away which shows he may want to do it so if I survive this Tribal, Szy is done and I will laugh when his torch is snuffed. Not now, but soon	”
–Joe

“	Szymon just told me Alex had a whole rant & apparently said mean stuff about me because he didn't win immunity like get the fuck over it & stop acting like a bitch!!! I'm so tired of all these people acting bitch made over this ORG life like this is what your life consists of smh duck duck goose ass bitch	”
–Domonique

“	Szymon is so difficult, wanting Sam out over Joe, like come on Szymon, either he has an alliance with them or he just really doesn't like Sam, but I personally think it's not smart to go for Sam for that reason when there would be just Sarah left at the next vote.... Szymon pls stop being a stupid ass	”
–Alex

“	DOUBLE TRIBAL ITS GOIN DOWN	”
–Evan

“	Alex says "I'll just see him on ponderosa in a few hours I guess lmao" he's finally getting it! It was nice while it lasted and now you can shimmy your way to Ponderosa with Sam's snitch ass	”
–Domonique

“	Ok so fuck this, I am not fucking sitting here and going to DIE when fucking Joe tells me all the information I can VERY WELL use against the people that he threw under the bus. He EFFORTLESSLY threw Szymon under the bus and guess what... I ran RIGHT back to Szymon with it because fuck you all, fuck off Evan you can go and have your fucking best friend fuck with Joe because I am not done here and I WILL take action against you Evan, you threw me under the bus to Joe and now you're going to pay, if this is going to be the last vote I cast, it will be a revenge vote but you are also very likely to be voted off if all the cards fall into the place they are supposed to, oh... Evan...... oh your ass is gonna get reamed	”
–Alex

“	lol @ Alex saying I have no duos. One I don't need duos and second, I know who the pairs are this info is late lol but shit you gotta commend him for trying anything he can	”
–Domonique

“	SI Day 31 Confessional	”
–Sarah

“	omg Sam went home just as i planned too, i also told to Alex that i was going to vote for Sam, so i wanted to keep a clean face with him and now he feels betrayed by Evan, as Joe and Alex confronted each other AND JOE THREW ME UNDER THE BUS kxjfndjshshfjejf i can't with Joe today, i spent my entire morning in class talking to Alex and comvincimg him to save Joe rather than go after him, and first thing that Joe did was going all off on me for not telling him about Alex targetting him before... Literally working with Joe requires so much patience and Im doing my best to keep calm with it. Alex does not give up and after the shit that joe did Im really considering to vote out Joe, but Alex wants Evann out which doesn't suond good to me as i trust Evan way more than Joe. Im also lately talking a lot to Sarah just as i planned doing so,and i really enjoy it. Tbh i need to keep doing that because im going to need her at least until final5. For this messy vote it seems like Evan, Alex and Joe are the ones on block. And the moral of whole season is... Don't fuck up if you want to stay in game. Simply af. Some people are just sooo power hungry and Im loving that because it keeps attention far away from me	”
–Szymon

“	Sarah really wants the plan to happen, Szymon is working on a relationship with Sarah, Sarah is talking to me about it aka Szymon really wants the plan to happen, so the only thing I need to do to secure myself is to make sure that Domonique is convinced that voting Evan out over me is by. far. the smartest thing for her, bring it on, I'm here to play, I won a season for a reason and I am not fucking scared to vote people out that fuck with me, I turn into Russell when I feel betrayed, but Evan doesn't need to know :]	”
–Alex

“	Ok, Joe, you wanna talk about dragging me when all you have done this game is have one plan and be up people's butts? Ok, let's talk. You have been up paranoia's ass the minute you set foot in this game, and everything you heard, you took the wrong way, to the point you thought you were getting blindsided. You swapped and friended Evan like you usually would do. Evan just went up your ass as usual, but then you just went up Dom's ass, because you apparentely think you can get her out later, and when you don't you're gonna hit slam hard in the ground and realize you were Dom's TJ/Brit/Ricky. Someone who Dominique aligns with and beats them. So if you wanna talk about dragging me, you better look at a mirror and think twice before you do, cause I don't think I'm deep people's asses like that.	”

–Tyler

“	Oh Evan, pretending everything is perfectly fine and giving me a sob story how he couldn't do it while I'm sitting here and i basically know everything he fucking did.... oh evan you are so clueless :]	”
–Alex

“	So idk if it makes remotely any sense for confessionals to happen between a double tribal, but I defy logic all the time so fuck it here goes. The vote actually confused me at first. There were stray votes on Alex and Tyler. Then with just some asking around I got some clarity. Dom threw her vote to Alex in case Alex idoled Sam. Sarah threw her vote to Tyler in case there was an idol on Joe. Alex and Sam voted Joe. The rest of us voted Sam. And with that, I bid SAYONARA to yet another Brawn. And, welp, after this tribal, I may be the last brawn left. I would have successfully voted out every brawn except for Wes once Alex goes. LOL whoops. Tribal council can never be easy and straight to the point. NEVER. WHYYYYYYY. Oh yeah because that's the point of Survivor. Earlier I indicated the whole falling out between Szymon and Joe. They got back on good terms. I was enjoying a nice fucking PASTA DINNER at Ruby Tuesday's until Szymon messages me, mad again. It turns out that Joe leaked to Alex that me and Szymon were the ones to tell Joe that Alex was after him (Joe). He claimed Alex was infuriated at me. I talk to Alex. Alex is acting passive, defeated, and done with the season. I talk to Joe and ask him what he said to Alex. Joe says Alex put 2 and 2 together. FUCK. What's the truth? Is Alex just so fucking done he doesn't care anymore? Is he hiding back aggression at me? Is he even angry at me? Is Szymon trying to pit me against Joe? Is Joe lying to my face? I don't know what to think, but I know what to DO. I made a mistake earlier - I pitched the idea of voting Joe later to Szymon and Domonique. Dom went as far to pitch blindsiding Joe now, but there's no way we can give Alex another shot at immunity cause as Dom said, he's like Perry. And I don't think people would want to keep Alex too. I have to make it an ABSOLUTE PRIORITY to get out Nuno after this double tribal and THEN decide who to trust between Joe/Szymon and draw the line by voting out one of them. Also lol I just realized Sarah's gonna waltz into like F5/F4. I'm putting Tyler back on standby, and I need to do the same with Domonique as well. They need to know that Szymon/Joe will both be loyal to us for a while, and thus there's no need to blindside them immediately while there's underdogs like Sarah and Nuno (who are also gonna be a duo after this) floating around. We can do it after one or both of them go. So, time to once again secure these groups back in together. THE TORRIN LEFTOVERS CANNOT WATCH KILBRIDE EAT EACH OTHER ALIVE. NOT YET. Call me the architect of Kilbride.	”
–Evan

“	this games gives me Canada flashbacks. My tribe lost a lot of pre-merge challenges, I merge in minority, then we get the person who was on the bottom of other tribe, we vote out the head of the snake of other side + the most useless person quits and we are destroying them. Except that this time, I'm not playing as the leader of the ring, which was my downfall. I'm playing on the middle, trying to carefully avoid the mistakes i made in past.	”
–Szymon

“	So... I just promised Domonique that I would never write her name down in this game if she would save me this tribal................. and to be honest.... I don't even care LMFAO because this could possibly be my ticket to safety Would I stick to it? Probably, because it's not my gameplay agenda to tell people that and go blatently against it At the end of the day, I could very well go home this round so I don't give a fuck what I have to promise to the swing vote so I can stay :- )	”
–Alex

“	Awwwh fuck. So Alex is targeting me. Szymon and Dom already let me know. I'm not ready to leave Skye Islands just yet. I don't want to scramble too much and look overly paranoid, I just hope my alliance members know I've always been there for them and that Alex has flipped his loyalties to anyone at anytime. He's a huge strategic and physical threat, he's vulnerable now with no idol or immunity, and he's a former winner. I really hope it's him and not me. Here's to making it to the next round.	”
–Evan

“	that moment when I want to save Alex but I'm not playing an idol on him and I think I don't have the votes to save him So basically his fate is sealed And I lowkey feel bad about it because he's trying really hard	”
