I'm sorry, Jordan, but you gotta admit... ...that was frikin EPIC.  Time will tell if I made the right move. But I was sick of waiting/hoping for people to come through for me. I wanted to make a move for myself, finally. So I did. And I'm proud. No regrets. |

Ugh, I'm relieved but also unsure of myself. Will let things process during the night and try to do another video confesh in the morning.
Final Five. Heck yaw.

OK, so if I had to do this round over, I definitely would've voted out Jeffrey instead of Jordan. I had less than an hour to commit to a decision after I came home from work last night, and since Morgan/Hooker had settled on Jordan's name, it was either him or Hooker. I mean, yeah, I had mixed feelings about Jordan...but Jeffrey's a legit threat to win this game. Before this whole mess started, I was prepared to go to the finals with him cuz I'm pretty sure it'd have been close. And I'd have taken a close vote compared to no vote at all. But now. Now I'm becoming reviled. Aint no way Jordan's gonna vote for me if I get to the end. And I may have turned some others off as well. If I went to the end with Jeffrey at THIS point, I'd lose. No question. So...Jeffrey needs to go. ASAP. He'd smoke anyone in a jury vote, so I assume it shouldn't be overly difficult to make sure Hooker keeps his word to me/Morgan. It'd probably be another jury vote I'd lose, but I'm still confident in Ashley/Erin/Stephen giving me 3. I just need one more: Tucksy. The key to my winning may be voting Tucker out in a way that makes him want to vote for me to win. Even in our random rivalry here lately, we have a respect and a like for one another. So I'm hopeful he'd reward me with his jury vote if we get to that scenario. But alas, still a couple hurdles to climb before we get there. Jeffrey, I love you...but we just weren't meant to be allies in this game.  |

Thought that challenge went pretty well! Can't wait for the results. I'm a stickler for details, and from the beginning I actually have paid attention to the day #'s that people were voted out. I remembered the first several votes happening on days 3-5-7-9-10...and then after that it was every 3 days for the most part. The only one I know I got wrong was Ashley's boot day, where I was off by one. Not sure when exactly exile was introduced into the game...I know it was the day the tribes were switched and Morgan was tribeless/exiled. So if I got it wrong, I couldn't have been off by more than a day or two. Pretty sure I got all the others right on the nose.
So...we'll see. A third win in a row would be huge, but even if I lose I *should* be okay.
Unless Hooker backs down from his f3 deal.
Which...a villain backstabbing me?! NO WAY THAT COULD EVAR HAPPEN.

Oh dear. At first I thought this would be easy-peasy: Jeffrey goes. He's too likable. He's a threat on so many levels as the final 3 nears and nears.
But now...well, even after the Jordan vote, Jeffrey still seems intent on honoring our finals deal from a couple rounds ago. He'd be shocked if I reneged on that deal for "an easy win" against Hooker (which now wouldn't be as "easy" as I originally imagined).
Jeffrey was totally guilt-tripping me tonight. He doesn't wanna go out now. Not 5th. Not after getting 6th and 7th his last two times playing this series.
(But seriously, I kinda wanna vote him out for simply that reason alone. Teehee, it'd be so poetic. <3)
I guess this is what it all comes down to: will Hooker stay true? HOOKER - the guy I never even talked to until literally three days ago. I believe he'd stay true this round and vote Jeffrey. But what if I don't have immunity next round? Who would he vote for then? Surely he'd wanna take me out before the finals and maximize his chances at winning by going to the end with Tucker and Morgan.
Gah, I don't know. I thought this round would be easy, but of course it is not.
Not in the least.

Man...Jeffrey can be such a prissy bully sometimes. Like, I'll always love the kid, but he's freaking out over the passed suggestion he might be voting Hooker, when, uh, that's exactly what we talked about last night! I might've made a HUGE mistake telling Jeffrey I was considering voting for him. If he gets to talking to Hooker and sways his mind (which is possible/probable based on the weak status of Hooker's mind), I could be DONE. There is a possible saving grace here though, should Hooker go against me. And that is Tucker. We had a pretty good chat today and he swore he wouldn't be voting for me this round. He wants to get the coattail riders out; wants a challenge to the end. Uh...ok...I assume that to mean he's voting for either Hooker or Morgan this round. Not sure which. If he does, my worst case scenario would be a 2-2-1 vote in which I tie with ole Jeffrey. Not sure what the tie-breaker would be...? Past votes? (I have none. ) Challenge? I don't know, I'm just sick of getting yelled at and stressing over who's voting whom. Just...whatever. I'll vote Jeffrey cuz that's the new deal I made with Morgan and Hooker, and if Hooker wants to be lame and vote me after I saved him, so be it. Regardless of how I eventually place, this game's been way too fun for me to stop enjoying it now. |

Okayyy welll. Thats it! 24 lawlz all game in your confessionals and only 1 or 2 of those came after merge! I was disappointed about that but otherwise, great game Tom! I loved your confessionals except for the cockiness about your Heroes tribe which didnt mean anything in the end and that also leaves me bitter about my own position since I wasnt the threat everyone thought I was. lol
It was just paranoia about Jeff and you guys not being as confident as a whole like you led everyone to believe. HEROES = JOKE
VILLAINS = FAILURE
JEFF should've won, but I'm still very proud of Rob. He deserves it!
