Episode I - Back on the Beach

[Deleted]

Who would've guessed out of all the seasons I would be a Hero, haha. It's kinda funny but also very humbling to say the least! But what happens now has to be completely different to when I competed in Fans vs. Favorites. When I originally played, the Fans were a hot mess of inactives, people who didn't understand the mechanics of a proboard and the decent players who banded together to save their own kind...

But I've gone from a tribe of idiots to a tribe of incredible strength. So when the time comes for the first immunity challenge we all have to show that our place is deserved. But by looking at both teams I can safely say that I will not win this competition, I have history with at least four players (two on heroes, two on villains) that will come back to haunt me.

Heroes wise, I've pissed off two people. Allan because of last season when he rejected the Fans and I pushed for his boot, and Erik for when the alliance sided with the evil powers of Alyssa and Jason to take him out. Don't get me wrong, I'm on good terms with both of these players and I respect them a huge deal... but they've got that hold on me.

On the Villains side, the alliance had a tight grip on Jeffrey after we eliminated Britti and whilst there could've been endless opportunities to put him in a position of power he would've won the game against anybody. Then there is Matt/RB, the funny thing about this selection is that he is the only other Fan in this competition, despite there being bad blood between us in Fans vs. Favorites I think he's willing to let that slip. But if I was on the Villains, I wouldn't last the first round and RB would be signing my life away as I did to him.

So, now that the game has begun, I have to figure out my initial strategy. Socially, I've been a smiling face to the team mates I have spoken with and they seem to enjoy my company. The idea behind this is to not look suspicious and maintain a sense of innocence rather than arrogance.

We'll see how I play out. God help us all!

This challenge is set to be a good test of team work. But with eleven different opinions it's going to be very interesting to have the majority decision.

After talking to Morgan, she revealed that does tend to get somewhat bossy and try to take over the leadership position. This can prove to be useful, but right now she is definitely somebody I'm close to on the team. In addition to her, I get on well with Jordan, Ashley and Allan.

The others such as Clayton, Jamie, Tom etc. I'm still trying to get my head around. They're all great players if they've made this season and trying to maintain 10 different relationships is going to be a bigger challenge than what is presented to the tribes!

Challenge wise, the tribe is coming together well. The canvas is just ready to be painted with the right designs and colors.

Sadtimes.

Okay, this is just a general recap of todays events; standby for boredom!

I get to have a very brief (very is putting it lightly!) with Clayton, he's at work so granted he is busy... but if you're in a new game then you should try to put a little effort in or try to explain why you're not talking as much. Jamie I messaged but have yet to get a response from and Allan flat out told me he thinks I'm dangerous.

Your winners, ladies and gentlemen. Thank christ Erik is the only interesting one.

I've also made my first alliance in Jordan. It was like a bromantic thing, and that's okay with me. He stated that the Heroes do seem to be relaxed about the situation (probably based on the Villains walking around with their puffed up chests) and that the only time we'd start to show cracks is when we vote. So I explained to Jordan that I wouldn't write his name down, he then responded that he'd have my back "indefinitely" which is a pretty good sign that he trusts me. And right now, not many offers are flying my way. The idea between this alliance is to rope in one of the "pairings", either Allan & Ashley or Stephen & Erin, not only would this give us a solid four but also try to cause a division within the numbers. But before I continue, I do not want to purposely stir shit up, that is not my strategy.

Currently, Myself and Stephen have went from brainstorming to actual grafting. The flag looks very good but I still have my reservations, no matter how good it might look you got to think what the rivals have.

In comparison to the first challenge in HvV to FvF, I do feel alot more confident in this teams abilities. We're stacked with winners, and I've done a comfortable amount to know that I'm going to be heading into round two.

I think... more to come!

Erik came to me today and asked if I could be trusted... this is the guy who I had a hand in voting out at the merger in Fans vs. Favorites, what is interesting to me about this situation is that yes, I did agree to not go after him and there is a pact there to watch out for each other but on the flipside he could still want revenge, despite what he said.

Erik: i think we could work well together so lets do that. im not coming after you, so there. just putting that out there

Tucker: i'm happy with that ^__^ i've got your back

I want to trust Erik, right now I'm still loyal to Jordan and also pushing for Stephen to have faith in me. You can get a sense of which people will be aligning together, and if I've got the strong guys as a collective unit then we've got no problem.

But it's still in the foundation stages. Back in FvF the obvious players banded together, but now it isnt as easy.

As much as I enjoy playing this game, besides the social challenge and the immunity challenge... the worst feeling is awaiting the results of a challenge.

In my first confessional I said that we needed to deliver, we did. And if we go to Tribal Council then it's going to be the most difficult vote I've ever had to cast because this is the best group of people to be banded together with.

Of course, we're not only "Heroes"... we're All-Stars too.

A lovely way to end the round, I'm not going to get voted off, the tribe is pretty solid and my alliances are (for the minute) intact. Good times had by all! The Villains go to the first vote of the season and pretty soon they'll be at ten, we'll be standing strong at eleven. But for how long is just another story that will be saved for the next round.

I know that I hate purple, but it might just end up being the luckiest color of all
