Soooooo, it's been a very exciting/shocking two rounds!
First off, at the last TC our plan actually worked and we were able to take out Nicole! This was a BIG move for me because she was someone that I felt would probably come gunning for me and she, IMO didnt really deserve to be here. Being good at challanges is one thing, but not socializing with anyone outside your little circle is...uggh. She said she made fun of a lot of us in her journal...which i don't understand cause she never really talked to anyone. Blaah, oh well, It was a nice surprise to see that the five of us could actually come together and make a plan work <3
BUT MY GOD!! We had the hardesttttt time getting Woods on board with this plan. Well we actually means Joe & Cody because I can't really talk strategy with him. He kept asking if I was really on board with them to do this. For some reason in his deluded mind, he kept thinking i was aligned with Ricky & Nicole. I don't know who kept whispering that into his ear, but he really had no proof to back it up. I swear this is my last time bitching about it cause I know I've mentioned it wayyy too much already. ANTYWAYS, we came together and were able to get rid of Nicole without her using her extra vote or peek ability, YAY!!!!
THEN, we had an IC immediately afterwards. The battleship game was fun but it ran on a bit long because it seemed like everyone placed their bombs in the same general area. During the challenge me, joe, animal, brenda and woods made a group chat where we, of course, shared our locations. But do you know what was really frustrating during this whole ordeal? Woods had the nerve to ask if we could let him win immunity!!?! Umm, dude was already saved with the amulet the previous round and yet he STILL wants safety this round as well? Oh let us not forget that he has a freaking express pass which immediately takes him to another round. *frown* Anyways, he ended up winning on his own merit....maybe. Idk, Nax was giving us some clues to where bombs had been placed. I guess that was his way of sort of getting on good terms with some of us. *shrugs*
Anyways, after Woods won yet ANOTHER Immunity, everyone was pretty much set in the fact that Ricky needed to go, including me. Since everyone was sort of ignoring Ricky as he was trying to give his last minute pleas, I decided to at least hear him out. I knew that almost anything he said to me would be out of desperation but I think its mean to just shut someone completely out and be like "HEY WE'RE VOTING YOU OUT AND THERES NOTHING YOU CAN DO!" So me and him had a veryyyy long talk about his options in this game. First, I had to tell him about WHY the Nicole vote had to happen and WHY people wanted him gone. I'm not sure if he FULLY understood the reasoning but he acted like he did.
So after all was said and done, I pretty much told him that there was no way of him changing anyone's mind. He THEN mentioned to me that Brookie had been wanting to quit for a long while. So I told him that her quitting would probably be the only way he would stay this week.....
Of course....I didnt think she was going to actually do it, so now I'm stuck in a sticky situation with Ricky >__>
And on a sidenote! Why aren't Nax and Ricky giving Brookie the shit they gave Fei and Greg for quitting!?! At least Fei and Greg got voted out and simply did not do redemption cove. Brookie just out of the blue quit and only to save Ricky's ass? I find that VERY hypocritical on their parts and I'm sort of mad at myself for saying to Ricky that was his only option. HOWEVER, i DO NOT think it was fair for Brookie to continue in this game for as long as she did if she didn't even want to be playing. There were sooo many people who left before her that would LOVE to still be in this game. So in the end....GOODBYE BROOKIE *waves*
So nowww, we are down to 8 people and the game seemed to be panning out in one direction, but I'm about to do something that I'll probably regret but needs to be done to secure my safety going down the line...
