First off, can we change my name back to Andrew, lol? If not, no biggie, but Stickman really is more of a nickname and there aren't any other Andrews this time around!

ALRIGHT! I'm here in beautiful Tasmania! Home of the hottie Aussie girls, sandy beaches, and even a Tasmanian devil or two! (not the famous one though, disappointing). However, this is no cruise trip, my friends! This is iSurv1vor 14: Heroes vs. Villains bitches!
I'm just as excitied to be playing this season as I was last time around! I've been waiting for a potential 3rd chance at this great series ever since my embarassing preformence in Ireland All-Stars resulted in a wimpy 21st place out of 27 people! Don't worry, that will not happen again!
So as for the tribes, obviously I'm a villain, (how could I ever be a hero? I lie and screw good guys/girls over). And lemme tell you, this tribe is fucking SCARY!!! Just listen to these infamous names, Bud, Joel, Katy, Torah, Bridget, Jeffrey, Juice, Hooker, Megan. Oh and I guess RB is somehow a villain too. All the egos and insane personalities on this tribe! I'm telling you, come merge, there won't be anyone left from this tribe, we'll have murdered everyone in the tribe.
I'll have more indepth information later tonight. For now, PEACE OUT BITCHES!

Okay, so a quick guideline to my strategy, some thought on my opponents, and then that's a wrap for tonight.
So yeah, my strategy was actually going to be UTR in the beginning.......BAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHH.......no seriously. See, with all the big names out there, you kinda have to play a little conservatively at first. I mean, with people like Bud, Katy, Joel, Bridget, Torah, etc, there are a lot of big name players in this tribe. A smart player will stay close to everyone around him, maybe ally with them maybe not, but will be on everyone's good side and wait until people start ripping each other's heads off.
That smart player will bide his dear little time until it's time to erupt like a porn star's stick in the money shot.......did I just make that analogy? Yes I did and it's true.
So that is hopefully how I play the game this time. That'd be the smart thing for me to do. I expect I'll play this way for about a week or two, then blow it all away. I actually have a bet with Morgan about how long I can last with this strategy. She says I'll go to TC 2 times before I blow it. I say 4 TC appearances until I start getting controlling again as always. I think Morgan will win easily.
So yeah, here's some thoughts on the other players.....
VILLAIN TRIBE (btw, we need tribal colors Sandy and Corey! Let's get onto that!)
Hooker: I have an alliance with Hooker. If I had to guess, I'd say he's my closest ally. He's a good guy and all, but he gets REALLY paranoid easily. He's already convinced that Bridget and Jeffrey have an alliance and I'm pretty sure they don't now. He's like what Taylor was in All-Stars 1. That means I'd be stupid to keep him around long. And he is driving me nuts with that paranoina!!! Although it's good to have someone like Hooker around because he does make you think about things you wouldn't think about like a possible Katy/Juice/Bridget/Jeffrey alliance, (no way does that exist).
Bridget: Ahhhh yes. Bridget. We've had quite the history together haven't we? Me introducing iSurv1vor to her. Me attempting to showmance her. Her letting me think I was showmancing her. Me creeping her out big time. Her backstabbing me and huring my feelings. Yeah, you'd think that I'd totally want revenge on her for what she did to me. But actually I don't want that. Because the fact is, 90 percent of the issues we had in All-Stars was totally my fault. I was being stupid and weird and had I paid attention, it could have been obvious that it was bugging her. So yeah I deseve lots of blame for that. I'm actually alligned with her too, lol. I do have to watch out for her though. Could she be alligned with Jeff? Sure. So I'll watch out for her.
Bud: Ah yes, the infamous Bud himself. He seems alright actually. I;m probably the only person that will actually say I like the guy. I wanted to allign with him and use him as a shield since I know he'll implode eventually. But God, he's already being himself. Which is an idiot. He's been paranoid about Bridget wanting him out. Bridget had never mentioned getting him out, (if anything, she wanted JOEL out). So Bud, ever the genius, decides he wants to CONFRONT her and tell her he's scared of her.
think about that. he was safe with her and then pulls that stunt. All I gotta say is this....fail. That is all.
Megan: seems nice so far, haven't talked much with her
RB: really nice guy. I think Sandy dropped the ball big time with RB. He should have been a hero. Oh well, I can take full advantage of this. I think I can definitely work with him.
Joel: Not talked yet, but he's already weirding some people out. Course, coming from a guy who pretended to be "Kylee", it's kinda obvious he's a weird sicko. Probably won't last too long.
Torah: I want to feel bad for her. I know she's going through a rough time right now with her mom being ill and all. But the facts are the facts. She's my biggest threat in this game. Yeah, you can argue Bridget is a bigger threat. But Torah actually knows I'm a smart guy, (sometimes). Bridget just thinks I'm a horny dumbass. Torah simply has to go early.
Juice: Seems cool so far. But he's ready to play. It's already obvious that all the "arguments" that he and Katy were having were faked, (well it should be obviously anyway, neither of them have a thimble of acting ability). Juice basically is already a liar in my book, so I don't trust him at all.
Katy: Lol me and Katy are pretty good friends actually. So I wouldnt' be suprised if I ally with her too. She's got a big target on her back, but is at least gotten smart enough to put on her political hat. She's being nicer and it's obvious she's only doing it for the game and bashing everyone for their retardedness in her journal.
Jeffrey: Mr. I Have A Gender Identity Crisis. I dont' like him much in the alumni and I'm worried about him as a player in the game. I actually keep forgetting he's here, which is a good sign he could survive a while if not taken out quickly. I'll have to see if there is an opening to get rid of him.
Anyway, that's all for now

So I've decided to also talk about the lame ass Heroes tribe.
Tom: Being Sandy's protege, this was the least surprising casting in the entire game. Tom's a good guy and everyone, but let's not forget he's willing to play the game too. He'll be making his alliances and will do what it takes to win. I think he could go pretty far this time, at least better than last time, (now that Taylor isn't around to claim a Triforce alliance).
Morgan: Another no brainer, Morgan was an easy casting. Fact is though, I'm nervious around her. She knows exactally how big of a threat I am and I'm sure one of her goals, (aside from making the jury and not falling in love) is to outlast me. So I think she'll be gunning for me the first time I meet up with her. Maybe I'll be nice this time and actually let her make the jury this time before I screw her over yet again.
Tucker: Tucker is going to be my spy to the Heroes tribe. I've already alligned with him and the idea is that we'll share information to each other about the other tribes. That way, should a swap happen, (and this is iSurv1vor, it's gonna happen), we'll have the neccesary information we need on the other tribe to survive. Seems like a nice enough guy, we'll see though.
Jamie: Glad to see she could make it after all! Jamie is someone I'm thinking about making another spy for me. Two spies are better than one, esspecially if they aren't aware of each other's spy status. It'd be nice to have two different points of view.
Clayton: Who? Oh yeah, the guy who won Egypt. Frankly, as nice of a guy as he is, he really only won for three reasons. One, because his original Heqet alliance basically stuck together the entire time. Two, he was almost never vulnerable, (in part thanks to me for Exiling him twice). And three, I stupidly trusted him when common sense should have prevailed and he should have gone. I won't make that mistake this time around. I will outlast him this time. Clayton will be merely a memory by the time I'm done with him.
Allan: Allan's a true character and I'm looking forward to seeing how long he can last. Frankly, with him and Ashley being bffs, (and everyone knowing damn well) I see them getting split up quickly, probably during the first vote.
Ashley: Maybe the best female challenge competitor we've ever had, I'd like to think she can do well. But again, I see her and Allan getting split up earlier and for some reason, I think she's the one that's gonna get cut.
Erin: Erin's someone I'd like to work with if I can. Very nice girl, but like with Allan/Ashley, she's known to be tight with Stephen. Unless those two pairs were to work together, (and that could happen), I see this pair getting split up too and Erin could be the first causality in this pair.
Stephen: Likewise with Erin, I think they get split up. Nice guy though, but a threat I'll need to take out.
Jordan: Like Jeffrey on my tribe, I keep forgetting he's in the game. From watching the casting reveal videos, I get the impression the hosts do too. That of course means Jordan is going to last an extremely long time. And he is a smart guy and a better challenge competitor than most people remember. Jordan could be a serious bet to win this game if people aren't careful.
Erik: And lastly, Sheep Humper himself! I'll admit, it never crossed my mind that he could be in this game. He's usually one of the biggest threats to win a game, but this time I think he could have some trouble. He's got some good connections and some bad ones. He might make the merge, but I see him getting cut pretty quickly after words like in Montenegro.
I see a lot of pairs within this tribe, so watch out! There will be just as much drama and excitement in this tribe as in ours, only theirs will be of the strategic side, not that overly dramatic side.

Okay, so since I'm in the mood, I'll also talk about tribal situations and how I plan to work them to my advantage.
Bridget vs. Bud: Thanks to Bud being a moron and actually telling Bridget that he sees her as a threat, I see the battle lines being drawn between the two. As much as I would like to work with Bud, I really don't think he's gonna survive a battle against Bridget. She's very social and popular, even though we all know she's a threat. I don't entirely believe she has my best interests in mind, but I feel like it's possible that I'm gonna have to side with her come battle time.
The problem with Bud is that, who's gonna WANT to allign with him? Katy hates him. Juice is attached to the waist with Katy, (despite whatever bullshit he wants to say) and so he's not gonna work with Bud. Hooker won't take the chance of getting himself into trouble so he's out. I highly doubt that Joel would care enough to help him since Bud leaving means he stays. Torah hasn't shown up yet. Jeffrey doesn't seem like the type who'd save ANYONE from danger. Which leaves me basically and I want to stay a bit more low key for now. So Bud probably just screwed himself already. Good job jackass.
Allainces: Unlike in the past, I'm trying not to play as hardcore and be a puppet master right away. That means I'd rather not try to create a big ol' 6-8 person alliance right away. Rather, I'd prefer to just stay close to everyone and go with the personal 1 on 1 alliances. I think that will help me keep a lower profile while hopefully keeping me in the loop at least. I have alliances with Hooker and Bridget. I'm on good terms with Bud, and I'm working on Megan and RB. Katy will likely want to keep me around a while, and so Juice probably will be fine with me staying a while too. That's a pretty good start.
I need to talk to Joel, Torah, and Jeffrey still. Torah's never around though and could be the first person voted out if she's inacitve. Jeffrey I can't seem to catch and I'm not too concerned with him anyway, though I will need to make contact with Missy if he/she will probably be here a while. And Joel, well he just scares me in a bad way, so maybe I'll let him stalk me first before I talk to him.
It's very scary, but I'm hoping that when the eventual dominate alliance is formed, that my personal one on one relationships with people will get me into that alliance. From there, I can just bide my time and wait until the merge to really step up the gameplay and be my usual controlling self.

Okay, well I think things are beginning to clear up a little bit in the tribe. A little bit, which means it's as clear as a cow pie.
But it's getting better. Last night Hooker and I had talked about the option of allying with Juice and Katy. Now tonight, Juice made an alliance offer with me. Course, he lied and since he hadn't made any alliances yet. And of course, I pretended to believe him. Juice is definitely in game mood and I think I under-estimated his game. He could be a major threat to watch out for.
However, for now, he could be really useful for me. I'm thinking maybe tomorrow night or there-after, I'll talk to him about getting a 4 person alliance going and then we'll really see where he stands. I'm thinking about letting him pick both of the allys and I'll just say I would have picked one of those 2 too, so this will work perfectly, all that bullshit. Basically, I want Juice to feel like he's got me completely under his control. He'll then let his guard down with me, which will make it SO much easier for me to backstab him later down the road. Juice thinks he's a smart guy, but I'm way above his league.
Lol Juice, you did well in Canada man, playing with a bunch of dumbasses. Your playing with the big boys this time! And I suspect you'll be blindsided no problem! Lol I can see it now, he'll think that I'm his bitch, when in reality, he's kinda mine. Let him do all the hard work and let me just coast by a for a while. Then I strike and he will be left wondering what went wrong! HAHAAHAHAHAHHAAHAHH!!!!!
Actually I don't mind the guy, he's cool, but it's a game man, and I'm in it to win it this time! (as opposed to last time where it seems like it I was in it to showmance Bridget, lol).
Speaking of Bridget, I'm starting to think she might be in more trouble than I originally guessed. Apparently now Joel wants her gone too, in addition to Bud. Those are two major mouths that will try hard to get what they want. However, since I want to keep her around for a few rounds, I have an easy solution that won't get me in much trouble.
I'll just keep bringing up to the other players that a) Torah is inactive so if she doesn't preform, she needs to go quickly. and b) that EVERYONE hates Joel, so he'd be easy to vote out (which is a total lie by the way. I'm just spreading the talk and making it sound like everyone is already on board with this and I'm merely a messager).
This should enable me to keep the Bud vs. Bridget battle going for a little while, enough time for me to get a powerful under the radar alliance going to basically eat both of them up. This should be fun!

Well, I knew I'd eventually be part of an alliance, and it's a pretty good one. So like I had mentioned before, Juice made an alliance with me, (meaning I had one on one alliances with him, Bridget, Hooker, and Tucker).
So I decided I wanted to get a 4 way alliance going, but let Juice pick the 2 people. That way I could a)see where his head's at and b)let him think he's running the alliance. I was a little surprised to hear that Hooker was his first choice, though I'm happy to hear that, (and it makes it very easy for me. Hooker is closer with me than him. I know this because Juice made an alliance with Hook, and while that was going on, Hook was telling ME exactally what Juice was doing.)
Juice didn't really give me any other answer, so I suggested a girl, which he happily agreed to. Bridget was crossed off due to the target on her back. Torah, I don't wanna ally with whether she's active or not. And since I feel Megan evades talking strategy with me, I suggested Katy.
Now, Katy and Juice are supposed to be pissed at each other. Yes Juice was perfectly happy to have her on board, (for the moment, he says, lmao).
So the alliance consisted of Stickman, Juice, Hooker, and Katy, (who until further notice will be named Kitty, so that all of us have nicknames).
This is great for me. I've got 3 people that are smart enough to keep quiet for now, (even Katy, shocker!). I can trust 2 of them a little bit, (Katy and Hooker, Juice I don't trust at all). And I can slip under the radar and let them try to share the spotlight.
This is a good idea for me I think! Let's see how it works!

FUCK! We lost immunity! Time for Tribal Council!
;D
Okay, so yeah, that sucked. But now it's time to think about the vote.
In theory, Torah should be the easy vote here. She's been MIA due to real life, she is a threat to me personally, and if I'm really going to be serious about the UTR approach, (which I'm totally failing out so far I feel), then I shouldn't rock the vote in this situation.
However, there's so many things to consider, including alliances.
I have mine with Hooker, Juice, and DuBlow (Katy's new nickname)
Joel and Bud are a potential alliance since they both want Bridget out quickly.
I personally think Bridget and Jeffrey are alligned.
RB and Megan, I'm not sure where they stand
And Torah is.......well in the middle of nowhere land. So she coudl be an easy pick up vote if she's willing to vote for someone other than Katy, (although I kinda doubt it).
Megan and Bridget both have told Juice that Torah is "a smart choice"........smart for who? The tribe? Or just them?
I'm believing that Megan could be with Bridget (and likely Jeffrey). And since I don't think they'd ever go with just 3 people, I wonder who the 4th person would be. RB is a good guess. Then again, I know Bridget is interested in working with Hooker, so he could be in too and could be playing two different alliances against each other. Scary thought.
Plus, I have my own worries to think about. I've heard rumors that Jeffrey is talking shit about me because he's getting mad that I make fun of him a lot.
My thought on that, if true, is simple......GROW THE FUCK UP!!!
Seriously dude! Don't be a baby about it! I make fun of everyone, including myself! I'm not just picking on him! And seriously, he could at least be a man about it and just TELL ME he doesn't like my jokes! Lorii did that, now I don't fuck with her. Why can't Jeffrey be like that? Oh right, we're the villains, I forgot.
Whatever, I'm over Jeff. He's a over-dramatic cry baby who just annoys the fuck out of me anyway. So screw him! If I can get his ass out first, AWESOME! If not, I'll get him soon enough. Trust me on that one.

Okay WOW! Tonight was FUCKING EPIC!!!
So first off, Joel, Bud, and Megan went INSANE on Sandy, still bitching out that damn result in the immunity challenge. Now mind you, I was pissed too......for like 5 minutes. Then I got over it. The 3 stooges kept going at it and at it and at it! It got to the point where we had the GREATEST chat room session EV-AR!!!
I think Joel got expelled at one point, got to come back in, Sandy was about as pissed as I've ever seen him. Bud kept repeating the same damn thing over and over again. It was amazing.
But from my point of view, tonight was a very important night. On this night, "Spy Games" is on!
So I've been trying to get a spy on the heroes tribe to give me information. Tucker was a start, but he's fizzled out. Morgan won't tell me anything. Jamie won't tell Hooker anything. So I was losing hope.
Until now. Thank God for Erik, the sheep humper! So read our conversation to get a better idea of what's going on, but basically we've allied and are going to start spilling the beans on each other's tribes. This gives us both good information that will keep us alive longer should we ever have a tribal swap. Plus, now we can have a funny alliance name. My two choices are...
Stick up Sheep's ass
or
The Michigan Mafia
I like the first one better. But in any case, we are working together and this could be a MAJOR turning point later in the game. It may not mean a lot now, but just you wait!
