Confessionals

[Nate]

Speak about what's happening in the game, your strategy, your alliances, your suspicions, etc.



Nobody can see this except for those with the password, so as long as you don't give out the password to anyone, only you and and the moderators can see this, nobody in the game or the viewers can see this until after the game has ended.


Every few days I will ask questions, but aside from that, speak your mind whenever you have something to say. I want to hear it all.

Round 1

Finally, I can vent. But I'll hold off on that, and just talk about my tribe.

I wish the tribe could have been split a bit more evenly among seasons, maybe a 3-3-2-2 split or something like that. Having 5 people from 1 season gives chance to a super alliance running things, though I don't think that's really the case. Jhon has offered me an alliance between myself, him, Stan, and Tre, but unlike in SI, that's not gonna cut it, we need at least one more person, and that will only tie thing. Plus, I don't think a single one of us have actually talked to Tre yet. So yeah, I pretty much have no strategy.

I don't know whether to be heavily pissed off or heavily satisfied to find the idol and get lucky that Nate hadn't removed it so he had to tell me somebody's found it. On one side, I've spent about 80 % of  48 hours, not including sleep, looking for thing, only to find, but then not get to have it. On the other, I know somebody has it, and I can hopefully use that as leverage at some point.

Jhon wants Kenny out ASAP, and if he can get the #s to do it, I'm all for it, though I fear he has the idol. It's between him, Dewie, and Jhon, at least on the Favorites side. If I can just survive to a swap, I think I'll be OK, but I'm feeling vulnerable right now. Sorry this was sort of a ramblefest, I'll try to organize things better as time goes on.

Round 1

So somehow.....someway.....Jhon DQs in the challenge. I seriously couldn't believe it when Kenny told me. I mean, this was like basic, 3rd grade stuff. Hey, here's 3 numbers, add them together, what does it equal? You seriously couldn't figure it out in 3 attempts? Little Japanese children do stuff 20x harder than this. I think a 5 year old american kid that does nothing but watch Spongebob all day (aka me at 5 years old) could figure this out. It's basic. And if it cost us, I may have to throw Jhon under the bus. He's already going after Kenny, add that with possibly causing the tribe a loss, and it could make for an easy vote. Yeah, he was the 1st to offer me an alliance, but I've got what I need to take him out if I have to.

[Outlast]

Round 2 (End of 1?)

So, we kicked a** and took names in the challenges. One of the fans pussied out and quit, fine by me, one down, 16 to go, unless Nate is gonna be mean and make it a F2. Jhon has created an alliance between him, myself, Stan, and Tre. Jhon and Tre are both pushing that they've got Ash and Kaitlyn, which if true, gives us a 6-4 majority, which would make it easy to get to a merge (unless Nate is mean early and merges us at F10, which will still hopefully be easy). The best thing about this situation is that me and Stan could flip either way at this 1st vote. Whichever way we go it's 6-4, at least if it's a difficult vote like things seem. All we'd have to do is tell Kenny Jhon's after him, and I have little doubt that Kenny would create a majority group to get Jhon out. Jhon's like Phillip. He loves control, he's the head of ops, and as long as you let him think he's head of ops, he'll be fine. If things are really as they seem, I'm actually in a really good position. But in Survivor, things are never as they seem.

Round 2

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one doing actual confessionals and not just posting the alphabet..... anyways, the pressure's on for me in this challenge. I think people expect me to know the show in and out, and I sort of do, but I doubt that Gabriela's far behind me in knowledge on the show, she may even be ahead. If I lose, especially if I lose big, I may be in trouble. The good thing is, I probably have 3 guys ahead of me at least on the chopping block, and I've got a seemingly solid 4-man alliance. Jhon and Tre are now pissed @ Jon for b*tching about Jhon's DQ, whatever, the more targets the merrier. Yesterday, I would've probably flipped on Jhon and gone w/ Kenny, but Kenny's coming off as a really complex player. He's reading everybody, but hasn't really made an alliance yet, at least from what I can tell. Jhon on the other hand is extremely easy to read, and I could probably just ride him until I feel like getting off. Easy ride.

[Outlast]

Round 2

1st of all, holy crap on that challenge. Thought I'd lost it with Rodger and Tarzan, little did I know the 1st person ever voted out of this game would come in handy one day.

1. Where do you think you fall on your tribe's pecking order? What are the alliances you know about and which one do you think has the power?

I'd say I'm a good 5th. IMO Stan, Kenny, Jgrubs, and Jhon all fall in front of me. Kaitlyn said it best, our tribe has too many cheifs and not enough Indians. These guys will probably end up diggin their own graves before I become a big target. The only alliance I know about is the Chie 4, the Cuatro, the Chi-Quad. I'm still working on a flashy nickname, and I'm not gonna use 4 Amigos again. It consits of myself, Stan, Jhon, and Tre. I feel like we're tight, Jhon is pretty much spewing whatever he knows, Tre doesn't seem like one to backstab, and me and Stan have agreed with each other that it's best for us to stick with them for now. Jhon and Tre have both pushed that they can get Ashley and Kaitlyn, which makes me fear they have an alternative 4, if they want/need to flip on me and Stan. Jhon probably has the most power on him at the moment, but I feel like it's a game just waiting to implode, and I've got the detonator in hand if I need to use it.

2. Who is your number one ally on your tribe, and who is your least favorite person on your tribe? Why?

My # 1 ally is probably Stan, big suprise, I know. Don't think it's  a secret that we're close, we pretty much always are in these games. I do have to watch out for him. No matter how much he apologizes, I doubt he'll be afraid to backstab me if he has to. My least favorite is Jgrubs, I guess. My alliance hates him and he pretty much started something over nothing.

3. Do you think the hidden immunity idol has been found? If so, who do you think has it and how do you feel about that?

(I think) Me and Stan are the only people who 100% know somebody has it. My guess would be Kenny, Jhon, or Dewie. I'm not feeling good if it's Dewie or Kenny, especially the latter. Kenny's playing a sorta mysterious game, trying to not agree to anything, just getting the read on everybody. I may lean towards voting him out if we go to tribal just to see if I can flush the thing out. If a fan has it, more power to them, right now, it's not a problem for me.

[Outlast]

Round 2

So ummm yeah....we definitely didn't show up for that challenge. We weren't even in the general vicinity of that challenge. That challenge was in Canada and our performance was Japan, if you get what I'm saying. If you don't, all I'm really trying to say is that WE SUCKED BALLS. Giant balls. Cyclops balls. Balls the size of planets. And we sucked hard. I was one of two that could actually score and I was pretty freakin' lucky to do so. Tribal will probably be crazy. Everybody thinks the idol is on our side, there's a good 4 targets out there.

Am I nervous? Yes. However, at the same time, do I oddly feel safe? Yup. I know I said (or at least I think I have at some point on this site) that the second you feel safe in a game is when you're about to go out, but I don't think I'm legitametly on anybody's mind yet. I'm thinking of blabbing on Jhon's earlier plans to oust Kenny, but playing both sides has never worked out well for me. If Jhon has a legit six I'm just gonna roll with him for now and see how things go. Right now, the plan is to vote out Jon. Jhon and Tre hate him, he may have the idol, and I haven't talked to him at all. That's three checks on the "Things To Get You Ousted" Clipboard I've made in the sand. Oooh, now Jhon says he's got 7 people to vote Jon out. Now we could have a succesful split between him and Kenny and Nate could have a super dramatic 3-3-3 tie vote reveal. This seems I bit easy......too easy. But I really don't wanna be paranoid right now. Hopefully things will go as planned, but they never do. Outlast out!

[Outlast]

Round 3



I can't do much but laugh to be honest. As usual, I got a bit too comfortable, and now I'm probably be screwed. There's a slight hope though. I plan on ousting Jon's plan to get Dewie, Kenny, and Jon out to each of them respectively. I've got to play dirtier this time around, so sadly, if it means my safety, I've gotta throw the guy under the bus. Tre and Jhon may be the only people I can trust at this point, but 3 is not a majority. I don't have in idol, I'm currently in the minority, and in this game that makes me vulnerable. Hopefully it won't backfire and put a bigger target on my back. I really need to survive to a swap at this point.  Kenny and Dewie are tough cases, they overplay at points, and me telling them the truth could only end up putting the target on my back.

[Outlast]

Rounde Tres (That was racist.....)

1. What do you think of Stan being voted out at the last tribal council? Is this good or bad for your game/your tribe?
I was pissed, but am simmering down as the hours go by, things aren't as I seemed. I actually oddly think this may be good for me. Stan being gone gives me 0 true allies and the opportunity to bounce around to whoever ends up in power. I have major flexibility now and I can 100% just play for me. It's actually a pretty great feeling, hopefully I can survive these couple of rounds that my name is in the rotation, if I can get to a swap/merge, I think I could really shake things up.

2. How well do you think your tribe is doing as a cohesive group? Would it be better or worse for your game if the tribes were switched up? How?
Uhhh.....yeah, we suck at that. ALOT. I don't think anybody has more than 2 for sure allies, especially after getting rid of Stan, who people just mutually hated for different reasons. I think it would help me if I ended up w/ some fans and some favorites, I think I could connect with the fans, show them I'm loyal, and gain allies to keep me safe, while also putting in a bad name for those who I'd like to target.

3. Right at this moment, who do you think will make it far in this game, and who do you see going home soon? Why?
Jhon should go home next, due to back-to-back DQs. After that I'm hoping and thinking it's Tre. That leaves us with 7 and I'm just hoping we won't have to go to tribal again, because that's where it gets dicey for me. Going far, I'm not really sure. The favorites are so messed up that I feel like we'll end up destroying ourselves and a fan will probably win. Newbies took over the game last season, if the fans stay loyal to each other, they'll get far easy.

[Outlast]

Round 3

Phew, we're safe, which means I don't have to worry about a blindside for another week. Jhon's gone and pretty muich done my job for me, Dewie is (presumably) pissed at him and wants him gone next. After that I'm hoping and thinking it's Tre, but I hope we swap @ 16. That could/should force some Favorites to really be loyal to me and open the door to working with some fans. My CPN5 breakout round is coming (hopefully)..........

[Outlast]

Round 4

I'm not even gonna look when Nate reads the votes. I think the votes are there to get Jhon out, and it's the logical thing to do, but I don't know where things are at logically. Just crossing my fingers and hoping that one way or another I'm safe.

[Outlast]

Round 5

So this swap worked out almost perfectly for me. Only thing that would've made it better was if Buddy was on my tribe, and Kaitlyn was in place of Kyle, just because we haven't talked much. With Buddy, I know him from another game, and was hoping to work with him. If we can just get a fan to flip and Ashley/Dewie don't do something crazy, I should make the merge. Only thing is, I'm pretty sure one of the fans has the idol, and I'm fearing it's on our tribe. Just a feeling, I'm always paranoid, so it probably isn't here, but you never know. Then there's the possibility of another idol being hidden. Ugh, I'm getting out of here before my brain explodes.

[Outlast]

My bad for not answering last round's questions.


1. How has the tribe swap affected your game for better or worse? Are you in a better position now, or worse?
I feel like I'm in the same position I was pre-swap. Just going 1 round at a time, hoping that it's not me at tribal.

2. What do you think about who went home from each tribe at the double tribal council? Are you worried about what's happening on the opposing tribe?
Pissed that I didn't speak up and tell the others I was worried Sean would play an idol. Kyle should still be here. As for Gabriela, fine by me. Not worried, favorites have the majority, and with the idol now out of play, I'm sort of hoping they consider throwing the next challenge....... or two lol.

3. Who do you think will be going home if your tribe goes to more tribal councils? Why?
Hopefully Dewie and Ashley before me, Sean was ticked with them, while I never got a message from him, so if the Fans take a majority, I'm hoping I'm at least 2nd on the hit list. I feel like I only need to survive 1 more round to make it to the merge after this one.

[Outlast]

Merge Round 1

So happy that I made it this far. Shorty offered me an alliance last round, which I accepted, but I think it may come back to haunt me. There's not many positives in my eyes going with either side, I feel like I'm getting no higher than 5th either way, but at this point, I'm just happy to have made it to the merge, and presumably, the jury.

[Outlast]

1. What are you looking forward to now that the tribes are merged?
The merge blindsides, idol plays, and Final Tribal. Should be a fun little roller-coaster of a time.

2. What are you not looking forward to now that the tribes are merged? How confident do you feel?

Getting voted out haha, and possibly backstabbing people if I have to. Not very, I feel like I'm sorta screwed either way, especially if I go with the favorites, but I'm just happy to have made it this far. There was point where I thought I'd be out 2nd and now I'm at the merge. It's great.

3. Who do you think is your biggest threat in this game now that it's completely individual?

Kaitlyn's great in challenges, as is Gabe. I think they're the biggest threats on both sides (Fans/Favs). In terms of strategy, I'm not really sure. Kenny knows what he's doing, but he has so many allies (in my eyes), he doesn't have to plan out any major moves.

4. What do you predict the alliances will be for these first few votes?

The favorites want to pagong the fans from my understanding, but I could be a major swing vote if the line stays between fans and favorites. I could go w/ Shorty and the fans (I know Buddy from another game, which helps me feel a little more secure with them), or go with the Favs, where I doubt I could get to the Finals. The 1st tribal should be interesting.

[Outlast]

So in my sleepy stupidity, last night I passed on the idol link to Dewie, who probably passed it onto Kenny, and so on and so forth. Idk why I did it, I guess I felt Shorty already found, I'm just not seeing anything. Shorty gave me the clue b/c he seems tot trust me, which is a great thing, but he also lied to me at first and said he hadn't found any clues, so I really don't know what's going on lol. I could possibly go both ways, w/ Shorty seeming to trust me and knowing Buddy from an outside game. The idol may actually be the deciding factor, I wanna go w/ the side that has that kind of power in their hands.

[Outlast]

1. Who do you think will be going home at the first tribal council? How does this elimination affect your short-term and long-term game?

I have a feeling it's me, for getting the idol clue, and how I got it, but I'm fine if I go really. Love playing, but if people feel that's the move, that's how they feel.

2. Do you think anyone has found the idol yet? If so, who? Is this good or bad?
I think it's been found, by a fan once again. It's a bad thing if the favorites stick together, but if I go, I hope to see it used in a blindside.

3. How important is winning immunity challenges to you? Why?
Important, since I feel I can win some, and I think some people feel a little bit uneasy with me.

[Outlast]

Come back from a case of busymanitis and Kaitlyn's been blindsided out? Wow, but I'm OK with it I guess, Shorty still wants my vote, and Kaitlyn was great in the challenges. Don't really think this is gonna affect my game too much, unless Fans and Favs have teamed up permanently.
