howdy partner <3

And now I look like a huge retard for denying it. I wish you told me you told people we were partners. I have tried my hardest to keep you a secret from my tribe too :(

Kinda happy things got swapped, ngl, I tried to feel confident over there, but my tribe was full of shady people I didn't feel very comfortable talking w/ Russell, and Erica made me nervous as well. The way that Russell talked and that he wouldn't drop the act made me always very wary of him, it's like I couldn't get to know him. Erica was very forward and kinda aggro.

I didn't tell anyone we were partners lol. Yve tells me though that people are trying to figure out who everyone's partner is, I guess. tbh I don't see why it's that big of a deal this early in the game, but people will figure them all out eventually, probably sooner than later. If I were you then I would stick with the newbies, & try and get Jol with you, maybe tell her how everyone was going to vote her out. That's really your best bet, because I wouldn't pretty much any of the vets on your tribe.

Good god I am the worst partner ever. I Just found out Probst himself revealed all the partners during the swap. Not sure why he did that? I was under the assumption we were SECRET partners? Ah well. Anyway I'm sorry I doubted you.

I'll try to get Jo to flip but will she really? You know her better than I do.

Did he? I wasn't paying attention, good I'm glad because it was tiring trying not to use the word "she" and watching what I said haha.

I didn't know Jol very well, everyone said that she went around adding random people into alliances, but this was over exaggerated and I think people just used it as an excuse to put blame on someone else. I think Jol might've wanted something with me at the beginning but our convos dropped off and she's not exactly the greatest PM'er. I think if you play up the fact that she was on the bottom, then she might swap. Are all your newbs in check tho? Like do they all have the same sentiment about sticking together:

Jimmy T asked us to vote him out so after we do, we'll need the numbers and that's probably where Jo will come in but this will put me in a iffy spot because I actually do LIKE all of the vets on my tribe ;_;

Really? Did he give a reason, like is he busy with other stuff or maybe just not feeling the game ...? That sucks for you guys because the five of them could just stick together and get the rest of you out. I would start working on Jol as soon as possible and make sure that none of your old tribemates want to pledge loyalty to the vets in order for safety. If Jol realizes how expendable she was on the old tribe she might not wanna stick w/ them.

About you liking them, they were all pretty nice for the most part, but they are sneaky and I'm sure they have their own agendas- so if you could get them out I honestly think it would be more beneficial to you than to go after your old tribemates.

Jake I'll take your advice but I need your input!

I plan to send this to Jo... anything I should add, take out? We are partners. A team and I want us to succeed until we eventually come together so please do help me in anyway and keep this to yourself if you can. If this gets back to the other vets I'm so screwed.

Okay Black Jo I want to discuss something with you because I honestly Iike you a lot more than I thought I would. My partner Jake told me you were set to go first if you guys lost. He told me that it had something to with you going around and creating different alliances? I honestly don't know if he explained that right. Now then he mentioned that it was probably exaggerated by the masses (IE: they went with it, as long as it wasn't them right?) so basically my own partner is trying to help YOU through ME. He wasn't fond of Erica or Russell (both have stated that they didn't like him much either and I told him this) so idk girl. After the Jimmy T vote that will essentially put you in the swing position. To add another layer to this? I actually do like the veterans like I just told you but if they're just going to use you for a few rounds and then outright eliminate you and then probably me? Obviously I'm going to voice my concerns about this with you to help us BOTH. We didn't come here to settle did we? This is the real deal girl. If screens were allowed I'd show you what Jake said but they aren't. I'll go along with whatever you want. I'll support YOU. All I ask really is that you keep this yourself. If vets catch wind of this I will probably be their target much sooner than I originally thought.

Thoughts?

I think that you can trust Jol to keep that to herself, unless of course she is still "tight" with Erica. You might want to mention that Erica was to keep up talking with her so that she wouldn't become suspicious that people were trying to get her out. Just in case she wants to believe Erica over me. But I was essentially told that Erica was "supposed" to keep in contact with Jol just so that she wouldn't become suspicious. Aside from that, it's a pretty damn good message dearie, so proud of you <3

She's in!!!

Also a cross tribal alliance formed between us and Holly/Jolanda, is that okay? Also my apologies... you doing okay over there? Who is leaving?

Good for you I'm glad ^_^. I really like Holly and Jol so if they are good for it, then that's fine by me.

Some possibly bad news though. Yve just told me that she's heard (possibly from her partner) that Marty has been integrating with the vets on your side? That might need to be looked into. I'd hate for all to amount from this is you shooting yourself in the foot and the newbs to still be on the bad side of numbers.

Oh and things are going alright over here. Holly and Yve are my fave of our newbs. As for who's leaving, the target started on Jill, just cuz of timezone differences and her inability to be here a lot, but I think it's going to be Jane now. She's playing pretty hard and a lot of people (newbs included) are ready to cut her loose.

Hmm Marty is like the second weakest socially, I doubt very much he's doing much but just going through the motions. There were rumblings about a possible six person alliance earlier on (way before tribal) with 3 vets and 3 noobs but that has since died so he might have been talking about that.

The target over here is either Erica or Tyrone. Erica is such a bitch, she is mean to Ted so I'm trying to use that as a tool to make the vote unanimous but Tyrone sucks so fucking much too. Jolanda is in though so the vote should be 5-4 or maybe even 6-3 OR 8-1 against Erica. Either way the bitch that trashed MY partner, the bitch that USED Jolanda and the bitch that threatens MY screen time must and will die.

Please tell both Holly and Yve Wendy says hi!! I can't with to work with you guys. mwa!

Hopefully that's all it is then. He would have to be fucking retarded to kiss up to the vets when you have the power to turn things around for yourselves.

Hopefully it is Erica- losing another newb might set a "just finish the newbs off" movement into motion. Gosh I knew Erica would turn out to be a cuntress. She's just way too in your face, so I kinda had a feeling she would sink herself. The first PM she sent to me was something like "WHY DOESN'T ANYONE PM ERICA?" or something like that and I could tell she'd be very OTT. But don't underestimate her relationships w/ Russell and Chase, iirc they were pretty close. If she is rude to Ted and was using Jolanda then that is the perfect leverage to get her out. Don't let her overtake you. You must be the star bitch on your tribe <3

Of course they miss u too. Sending my love, so proud of you!

p.s. most likely it'll be Jane tonight.

Jane, unanimous vote.

What about this round? I saw you disappear during the challenge, is it a end gaming mistake?

Most people have told me that I'm safe and that they hadn't heard my name from anyone, w/c is encouraging. I think it'll be Jimmy J. the newb girls and a lot of other people want him out.

And yeah my internet just dropped off in the middle. If I had known it was a challenge that would be dependent on me then idt I would've volunteered, but oh well. It was just a mistake so idt they're holding it against me.

I saw Jimmy J posting earlier, who went home instead?

Brooky :(

It was 6-3 with the other three being against JJ. We decided to switch the vote literally a half hour before tribal ... I didn't feel good about it, but it was a group decision. Tomorrow is looking like Jill bc she has been unable to attend challenges and hasn't talked that much with others. Any idea how tomorrow will go w/ you guys?
