It feels very strange to be back in this game! I'm coming from a position of like.......not being super active on the site lately bc school was miserable AND NOW I'M RIGHT BACK IN THE THICK OF THINGS. I've spent the first little portion trying to figure out what I did that was Daring?!?! I mean I guess I played 2 idols on 2 people in 1 tribal lolllll that was slightly daring. But I'm the most chill person on the planet, I don't deserve to be on the tryhard tribe. This tribe tho......on paper it should be so good....but in reality........no. Somehow I ended up on a tribe where I actually know who everyone is! That is not the case with the other tribe lol idk lots of them. James approached me like right after the cast reveal, before we were even on the same tribe. And I mean I like James, we worked together well in Vietnam before he got taken out early. But I know he's messy and dramatic, and will rub some people the wrong way. I approached Cole after the tribe reveal just to see where we stood. In Bermuda we were good allies but he was taken out early. In Vietnam he was an annoying little motherf*cker. In this season.......I just want us to be on the same page for now. And I think so far so good with that? IDK I live in Missouri now so I can just hunt him down and kill him if he backstabs me. Cole's a good kid though, I've liked seeing him grow up some. Stan messaged me saying that "he was told to message me." I don't know who told him that lolll but I was like OK HEY, feeling wanted is a good feeling! So hopefully we're on decent terms?  ? I just feel like I'm at the bottom of this tribe, trying to keep the target off myself. I feel like James/Kaitlyn/Don/Cole/Ashley/Stan/Pepper or whatever he goes by now will all work together just out of convenience. They're all what I consider to be like regular active popular members. It's funny because I feel like since so much time has passed since Vietnam, the majority of people is gonna be like the "Vets Alliance" rather than the "Anti Vets Alliance". I don't know what Joey is up to right now lol maybe I should talk to him. Me/Joe/Jonas/Setsu made an alliance bc we're all active on TG. But like from what I've heard, Setsu/Jonas are both targets from the other side, and I'm just like......not openly associating with them. I'd love for them to stay because I actually do trust them more, Jonas and I have a long history, and Joey/Setsu are in another game with me right now SO like they shouldn't betray me in either. BUT from the limited information I've heard, this tribal is extremely messy lol. I have been mostly left out of the mess, which is bittersweet. It's sweet because I am in no mood to deal with messy people on Day 1. But it's bitter because like........this doesn't look good for my long term success if on Day 1 I'm already not a part of the game. HOWEVER, I was recently in STARS on TG.COM and was involved in no strategy talk for the first day. I went on to get 2nd in the game, so I'm a late bloomer or something  |

I know people aren't supposed to go to bed angry after a fight or whatever, but I am going to bed PISSED OFF tonight. That entire experience was just demoralizing as f*ck. We HAD that.....and then slowly it fell apart. I mean I will take some of the blame, although I did my fair share by getting 2 of our points. Faces have never been my strength, I'm sure I made a confessional about that after this challenge in Vietnam. So some of the pictures really threw me for a loop, I don't know what some people look like! I think our tribe messed up by being a little too.......upfront about our like for the Survivor category. I don't think the other tribe would've picked it anyways based on what they were saying, but we really made sure of that by talking about how much we liked it! So instead we got stuck with athletes and history, my 2 worst things. I was pissed because the first time I looked at the athlete I was like WHO? ?? Then the second time I didn't even BOTHER, but it was a SWIMMER and I AM A SWIMMER and I WOULDVE KNOWN IT.....so that boosted my confidence for the third athlete, so I TRIED and then proceeded to not know it. Ugh I kept getting like 2nd/3rd post, I am just disappointed. I led a huge comeback in a challenge for another game yesterday, and this was like karma coming to get me for that. I hate getting off to a bad start in games, it just makes me feel........sh*tty. And now we're 0-2 in challenges, and I think our tribe is full of sore losers and the other tribe is full of sore winners. SO it's just a terrible outcome for everyone involved. Just gotta hope at this point that the little usefulness I have is enough to keep me through this vote......... |

Well we're on a winning streak now, which means a tribe swap is probably coming next Just glad I got to contribute to a win since I was gone for our first one! Got to show these people that the old Jacob is still around lolll, and there's no need to call a wannabe like Sammy "the new Jacob." THERE IS NO OPENING FOR THAT POSITION, I AM HERE STILL. I don't like putting a huge target on my back for being good at competitions, but 1) there's really no way to hide that after my previous 2 seasons and 2) I don't want to go back to tribal lol so I have to take matters into my own hands sometimes. We still have dead weight on this tribe tbh, first and foremost Joey Canada, but I mean some other people aren't contributing as much as others. They're all protected though SO I think either me/Joey Eclipse would be in danger if we lost again lmaooo. Well I guess Joey Canada just got votes so they're willing to ditch him. BUT IDK. I'm honestly a little excited for a swap, I'm hoping that if it's next, it goes well for me and allows me to move up on the totem pole of tribe dynamics. Playing from the bottom and winning competitions to survive is fun, but I want to show that I'm capable of more than that. |

K so I'm on the Khori tribe now lol. I can honestly say that I was not expecting us to go from 2 to 4 tribes. I thought we'd be going into 2 tribes of 10!!!!! But this might be better depending on how it goes? My tribemates are Ashley, Cole, Alex, and YoungMark. I have never spoken to Alex in my life, which worries me right there. YoungMark is someone who I just kind of consider to be annoying lol. Maybe he's fine when he's not playing a character though. Ashley is someone who I like, and who I don't think DISLIKES me, but we haven't really talked much this season. Cole is someone else who I like, but I know is going to be playing hard and probably has alliances with everyone lmaoooo. I'm good at challs tho, that's our saving grace as a tribe  However, that's a double edged sword I guess. The previous Khori tribe voted SAMMY out....so that's one less comp threat on another tribe to worry about...but it means nobody is safe. Poor guy, I DESTROYED HIM IN A CHALL AND HE GOT TAKEN OUT. Makes me a lil worried for my own safety haha, people don't care about keeping their strong members. That's why Joey Canada is still in this game! I'm obviously hoping we win the next challenge and avoid tribal, but in the event we lose I need to put myself in a good position. I could try to just stick with Ashley/Cole all the way on this tribe as original Daring. I could try to flip to Mark/Alex. OR maybe Ashley/Cole/Mark will join together against me and Alex, in which case I'll need to just try to be 4th on the totem pole instead of 5th haha. |

Well tribal here we come probably lmaoooo that was not good I did 2 puzzles basically in the time it took Ashley/Cole to do 1 each. But that wasn't even our downfall, it was the PHRASE. My first instinct on the second half was wrong, I'll admit that. I thought it was "one easy way" rather than "the only way." SMH Jacob like three letter words are probably always THE, why didn't I just go with the easy option. But also I think Ashley got one of her letters wrong lol, I think she had an I but put O. Not like that made a huge difference tho bc we didn't run out of letters until the very end, and by then we just submitted my best guess. Same with Cole's extra letter (an extra "S" I believe), didn't make a huge difference haha since we weren't constantly just like checking our letters and seeing if they added up right. The word "shrink" is tough I guess, and I'm hoping it trips some other tribe up? I would really hate to go to tribal on a small tribe like this ugh, last time I blew the first challenge on a 5 person tribe and it ended up with Stan getting idoled out. I just feel like I dodged that bullet last time since I cost us the challenge, so maybe now karma will get me and I'll be the one taken out? IDK I just respect Ashley now for doing that whole thing with me, and hopefully she feels the same??? Ughhh tribal is just scary. I literally got RIGGED out of another game today haha, like the players were on my side and the host took me out without caring, so at least THAT'S not gonna happen here. I have a fair shot, I just don't know if I'll make the most of it. |

So apparently the blue tribe's vote is tied between Vova and Kenny?? At least that's what Stan told me haha, I don't really take part in all this cross tribe information gathering, BUT IF PEOPLE WANNA JUST VOLUNTEER INFO THEN NO COMPLAINTS HERE. Tbh I'm very surprised by that outcome. If people were voting based on original tribes, then pepper woulda gone. If people were voting based on friendships, then I would guess that Jacob or Jimmy would be gone. This is the first sign of this game not being predictable imo. That's good news for me. Stan seems to want to stay close to me, he says he wants me to be part of his very small circle of trust since he's tired of lies and bullsh*t. I'm like WELL OK, I DONT HAVE ENOUGH INFO TO EVEN LIE SO THATS FINE W ME. My top alliance is with Joey Eclipse though, and I hope he feels the same way about that. I just need to fight through to another swap or something haha so I can avoid getting blood on my hands. The less I go to tribal, the less I have to show anything about my loyalty in this game. Everyone can think I'm with them since I won't have done anything against them |

WELL I FEEL TERRIBLE. POOR BLUE JACOB DIDNT DESERVE THAT?!?! But like right before the challenge James messaged me saying that he and Kaitlyn wanted me to go after Jacob Q........and like I couldn't just SAY NO TO THAT? Plus I really don't care about anyone on the Blue tribe long term lmao. Also Jacob Q f*cked up by going after me when he got one right lol, if he wanted his best shot at surviving he should've started going after Kaitlyn. But then James got one and he went after Blue Jacob too SO I really had no reason to ever target anyone else. Now Blue is back at tribal and idrc who goes. E, Jimmy, Vova, Jacob.....none of them mean anything to me? Hopefully Green/Purple appreciate my gesture of kindness by SAVING them. That's where the people who talk to me are at anyways. I try to stay out of the crosstribe dramaz, but when Stan or Briq or James or Joey Eclipse messages me, I'm not gonna just IGNORE them. So I made 4 enemies tonight, but hopefully a lot more friends than that. Plus I kept myself safe, that's always the number 1 priority. |

I think being put on this tribe full of crazy people is my karma for taking Jacob Q out. While the tribes were being made I was just like ............... I always get put on tribes with people right after they have drama!!!! In Vietnam I was put on Chu Tu with Stan/Jimmy after they fought, which led to the challenge throwing/idoling out of Stan. Now Cole was fighting with Pepper over Jacob getting out? ? I don't even know what that's all about tbh, Cole/Jacob are saying their alliance backstabbed them and I'm just like lolllll maybe these people should just calm down and not trust the crazy people. I'm a good ally and hopefully people will realize that And at least it's not currently an individual challenge haha, I'll carry as many people as I have to through this one. And thank god for Phil because at least he's sane too. And I guess thank god for James since he put in work to make a cheat sheet for the upcoming challenge haha, hopefully it's useful. |

Tribal is so stressful lmaooooo
I have to just hope that Cole/James/Phil are loyal to me at this point. I have a feeling that I'm the target of the other people, E/Jimmy. I just don't really talk to either of them, and even with the E/Cole drama, I just see E thinking that he's got a better shot at working with Cole than me. E is one of those people that could play 100000 times and never win, which honestly I hate. I just don't want to associate with him because he's erratic, irrational, and dramatic. And those are the same qualities that make other people want to keep him around for some reason! E should realize that he would benefit from like........working with the free agents??? Like he's made it perfectly clear that this giant familia whatever bullsh*t isn't stable, BUT INSTEAD OF BEING SMART AND TRYING TO FORM SOMETHING ELSE, HE'S NOT???
Now this vote could easily go wrong and I could go home way too soon. From my understanding, the 4 of us are supposed to be splitting. I don't really have the best track record with splits lol, and James was a victim of a split gone wrong on Vietnam when we were together. SO if this works I'll honestly be surprised. In theory, Cole/James/Phil are all people that I trust.....it's just time to put that trust to the test lollll. If no idols are played and this "split" wasn't even worth it, then I guess I'll regret this! But like it's the best way to guarantee safety and not have plans ruined.......idk it's a gamble either way. I just want to come out on the right side of whatever outcome occurs.
ALSO how did the idiot tribe win that challenge ugh. I was worried about the purple tribe doing well, not the green tribe. I thought we'd be safe once Joey Eclipse told me his tribe made mistakes, SO I DIDNT WANT TO BE IN THIS POSITION

In a shocking twist of fate, that didn't work!!!!!!! Can't say I'm too surprised, stupid people will make stupid moves. I'm moreso just upset with myself, I've like.......ruined my legacy/average placement/whatever in 2 series in the past week. I just don't feel like I'm given a chance anymore lol, people have preconceived notions of me, people have friendships that they refuse to budge from, and I'm just caught in the crossfire since my challenge skills are a noticeable reason to target me. I think this "move" will backfire hardcore on the people who voted me out, and I hope to witness their downfall Thanks for having me Nate, sorry I'm a #flop now. |

But did you see my #flop in Suitman's game? ?? He literally f*cked me over so hard lmaoooo. Our votes tied, and he said that if the revotes weren't in by 6, he wouldn't host a challenge that night, and the final deadline was 8. SO I was in court that day and didn't revote by 6....no challenge right? I was planning on revoting at 7 when I got done, but the host decided to just ASSUME my vote so that he can host a challenge for INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY bc he decided the game was "boring" and needed to be spiced up with a double tribal. So I didn't get a shot at immunity since there SHOULDNT HAVE BEEN A CHALLENGE, and then I got voted out. Even the people who voted me out agreed that I was screwed over BUT NO JUSTICE WAS HAD FOR JACOB. Omfg I went to suitman's game to check when you told me you got f*cked over but I didn't realize the situation. Bruh tengaged is a shady place, now I'm not even salty I didn't get cast on that season I would have been livid for you. Hopefully ur tribe suffers the consequences of voting you out, just like mine is rn hehe |
