I'm going to start this one off a little early because I feel this huge need to state how ECSTATIC I am that myself, Jordan, and Rob are all still here! Turns out all along that Juice was down with sticking to us, and even Hooker flipped which made all the difference. So, cheers to that.
Still, I can't wait to get off this God-awful tribe! Yeah, technically, we're now at 3 Heroes and 3 Villains, with RB looking like the next to leave if we were to lose the next challenge. I'd feel way more comfortable winning, knowing nothing crazy will happen. Plus, we can just smell the merge! We're all ready for the individual game to begin. It's been a looooong 8 episodes, and surely the game is about to go to a whole new level at the merge.
Now that I've survived this past vote, I do feel more confident about where I stand in the game. Erin is still here! Tom and Morgan are both around. Erik, who I know has my best interest at heart, is still around, and he has Jeffrey tight with him. That takes sooooo much attention off me/Erin since now everyone is scared of that duo. I still am extremely close with both Jordan and Rob. Hooker and Juice are now friends since they took my side on this vote. That really just leaves Ashley, Megan, and RB as the people I really don't have a solid relationship with. I like my odds at this point. If I can make it to the merge, I'm going to have sooo many options for what to do. It will start getting very difficult to send my friends packing, but I'm willing to do what it takes to win this game. For now, I don't want to lose focus and screw myself over, but I am extremely excited to see how far I can sail in this game!

Oh, and as promised, I have a Bud confessional...
Bud, I really did feel bad sending you packing. But in all honesty, you should never have trusted me! You should have been after me FIRST if you weren't. My back was against the wall, and you ended up being the one sent home by your own original tribemates. I just simply didn't feel like I could trust you. Had you opened up and told me more information to make me feel safe, of course I'd have fought harder for you to stay. I even mentioned the idea of voting RB off before you, but it was too late. I think your actions and sloppy gameplay are what made everyone ready to send you packing. I guess I won't know until after the game if you were serious about sticking with me. I do understand your point about getting Erik and Jeffrey out, but for now, they are nothing but friendly and solid with me, so it's not the right time to try fighting against them. I'm all about keeping the peace and making sure I make the first move when they don't see it coming. Now that Jeffrey gave away his idol, we can get them later, when it's the perfect time. For Erin and myself, it makes no sense to vote off the 2 biggest targets in the game. I did know EVERYTHING you were saying to Erin, and she told me everything you said to her as well. That's how we work. You know that! Anyways, I don't want this to sound like I'm lecturing because you are a killer player. Don't get me wrong, your placement in this game and some past one does NOT justify how good you are. I do wish you the best for your personal things going on right now, and I hope you have more time to focus on those things now. It was a pleasure, once again, and I'm sorry things didn't work out differently. You just fell on the wrong side of the numbers again, and it wasn't meant to me. Take care, my friend!

Wow, a lot has been said in the past couple days! One thing is for sure... anyone could still be going home on this tribe. I am so thankful that we won immunity. I was just 2 words shy of getting the opportunity to send myself to exile island, possibly to look for a hidden immunity idol. I'm a little worried about Juice maybe finding that because shortly after the merge, I do want him out of this game. Him having the idol is super dangerous because it would only take one person's crack for him to know exactly the right moment to play it. However, Erin did say that Morgan claimed there's no clues for idols at exile. Now that Jordan played it at the last tribal council, who knows if it could change...
Next, I was approached pretty seriously by RB about joining up. I just find it funny that since his buddy went home, he's suddenly sticking to me like glue, trying to form some huge alliance. The last entire round, our only communication was me asking if I was going home so that I'd maybe be able to get Jeffrey to sneak me the idol. He had nothing strategically to say to me because he wanted nothing to do with me. Now that he's on the outs, he feels like I'm the most likely to flop since he's preaching about how close Tucker and Jordan are. Again, hilarious seeing that Jordan tells me things like OH... how Jeffrey gave him the idol!? And did he tell Tucker that before the vote? Nope! That, to me, shows that Jordan feels he can even trust me over Tucker. RB doesn't realize that I'm not just the 3rd wheel hero here. He then went on to tell me how I was the last picked for the tribe, and that I only got chosen over Erin because I was better at challenges. So flat out, I was just "not wanted" by them... Of course I know this isn't the truth. I don't blame RB for scrambling, but he really is way off with his perspective of what is going on in the game. I LOVE that he thinks I'm on the outs because that's perfect... I don't want anyone in this game feeling the need to target me. There are more people relying on my loyalty in this game than there are who aren't, so that puts me in a wonderful position to make it very far in the game, plus, have tons of options along the way. It's just up to me to make the right decisions that land me in the finals.
So what did I do after RB told me all this? I went straight to Tucker to make sure he knew RB was after him. Turns out he fed Juice the exact same bullshit story, and Juice told Tucker about it as well. RB is right when he says Tucker is cocky. He's acting like a fucking cocky-ass bastard, and I know he thinks he's running this game, but who cares? He sure as hell thinks I'm weaker than him, and that I'm willing to do whatever he says the rest of the game. That's fine! He won't ever see me coming when I do make my move to make sure I'M choosing who makes the finals instead of him. Ok, that made me sound like I hate Tucker. I don't! I just love the fact that he's cocky because it makes him more of a target to everyone else like... OH, RB!I love Tucker to death. Of course I don't want him out. He's hilarious. As he'd say, "I love you, brother."
In addition, I did send Erin our tribe's amazing word list. I do owe a lot to Tucker for all his hard work, and I know Hooker and Juice both found lots of words there too. They basically sent me the entire list, and I found about 5 or so right at the end to get us all over 100. We dominated the challenge, and it is a huge relief to avoid tribal council. Especially since we can all smell the merge so hardcore right now. It's gotta be coming! Erin won inidividual immunity, so I know she won't be going home over there, and that's awesome! This message in a bottle twist is NEVER good news, so I'm happy Erin won't really have to worry about having something crazy happen to her. Ideally, they will be sending Megan or Ashley home at this vote. And if there's some crazy twist like a 2nd vote, I'm hoping they just vote the other off. I can't believe I'm admitting this, but I'd really rather see Megan stay just because Ashley has been so mysterious and non-existent. At least there's a legit CHANCE that Megan is being honest and has my back right now. She's running out of options as her former allies keep dropping like flies, so she may see sticking with me as her best move. Ashley and I haven't ever gotten close, and I'm sure she still won't trust me after I did vote Allan off.
This round was very eventful, but overall, I'd say it was several steps in the right direction for me. I feel like I am a quietly powerful player right now. No one really seems worried about my loyalty, and no one seems completely heart-set on voting me out in the near future. I'll take it!
Here's to hoping a merge is next! Cheers!

Ok I don't understand what you are talking about, but seriously, please find me 1 person who believes voting you off when we did was not the right move. And I mean it, I'd love to hear someone else step up and admit that.

RB is a terrible player, despite what he says I'm boring - pretty much everybody else thinks the exact same but about you. Your fate was sealed when you got eliminated at the first indiv. IC.
Buh bye, don't come back for AS3.
