I didn't think I'd be here, but I am! And I'm so glad I am. I don't really think I showed how good I can be last season, so I'm definitely here to prove I'm still the guy that got 2nd place [Deserving 1st!] three times in a row. Ugh -- I'm so excited! I want to kick ass already! I just need to get to the Individual Challenges round, and I know I'll begin to kick ass with my Immunity Wins. I'm definitely not keeping it classy this season. I'll cut a bitch.

So the beginning of the game definitely has much more drama than expected.
Let me break it down for you viewers at home:
The two tribes have been split up based on the seasons
Hawaii & Solomon Islands go together as the Octavian Tribe. Faroe Islands & Vietnam forming the Tiberius Tribe.
Me, being both a Vietnam player, and also a Faroe Islands player, I knew every player, and exactly how they played the game -- giving me a big advantage.
Now, within our Tiberius there are three alliances --
[Tijuana / Rob / Rudy] [Jenn / Sandy / Candice] [Nick / Jonathan / Ethan]
This leaves Sierra left out. We're assuming that she had gone with the Tijuana / Rob / Rudy alliance, considering she sure as shit isn't on the other 2, since everyone hates her.
Noticing that their alliance has the numbers over any other alliance [4-3-3], My alliance and Jenn's alliance figured we should work together, [making it 6 to 4] on getting the third alliance eliminated. Everyone on both alliances agreed to teaming up to getting Tijuana / Sierra / Rudy / Rob out.
Our first targets being Tijuana / Sierra [undecided as of now]. I'd really love for Tijuana to be ousted first, considering she's a huge threat and Sierra is just a coattail rider. A nothing. We'll see how things go though! Everything is going perfectly as of now though. On my way to #1!

Another interesting twist in the game -- a suballiance! I know everyone loves them some suballiances, because this is where the game could get a bit confusing.
Now, Rudy / Rob have approached Me / Jonathan / Ethan on forming an "All Boy Alliance." When suggesting this deal, they wanted Tijuana as their "back up / extra vote to get out the rest." -- BULLSHIT! Rudy must think I'm some kind of idiot or something...
Obviously I accepted his offer, under one circumstance -- Tijuana be voted out first, and Sierra 2nd.
This way, my 2nd alliance with Jenn / Sandy / Candice will still be unaware of this 2nd alliance, because both of us would be voting for the same people. Also, it would leave Rob / Rudy ZERO room to backstab my MAIN/ First alliance [Ethan / Jonathan] because if anything, it'll be 3 on 2.
So, everything works out in my benefit completely. I say, our tribe is gonna be doing very well, so the max amount of challenges we'll lose will be about 2? Those 2 Tribal Councils, Sierra and Tijuana being voted out, leaving my 2nd satisfied, and completely unaware of what I'm doing.
I figure that by the time we go into a Tribe Swap, my tribe will consist of [Rudy / Jonathan / Me / Jenn / Ethan / Sandy / Candice] and I'd be in an alliance with every single one of them, so no matter how the teams are divided -- me and my 1st alliance would have the upper hand over anyone.
After the tribe switch, I'd have to see who is in my tribe to ultimately decide on which alliance I will stay faithful to -- my 3rd or 2nd. But no matter what, I know I'm going to be faithful to Ethan / Jonathan, and I'd never vote out Jenn, so her aswell.

So, obviously everything went as planned. Me / Jonathan / Ethan [MALE ALLIANCE] teamed up with Jenn / Candice / Sandy [FEMALE ALLIANCE] to take out Tijuana / Rudy / Rob / Sierra [FAROE ISLANDS + 1 ALLIANCE] and it worked brilliantly I'm surprised about it too! Usually when I have something good going for me, someone screws everything up.
I think that the Male & Female alliance will team up again to vote out Tijuana or Rudy next round. Rob really isn't that much of a threat, at all. He's just used for the vote, haha.
Obviously Rudy was not true to his word when he offered me that alliance. Dumbass. If he knew Sierra was going to be voted off, he could've at least ~tried~ to trick us, and vote her out also.

Ohai, Confessional! I haven't seen you in a while. I misses yew, boo.
Anywho... Some stuff has happened since I last ~confessed.
Me / Ethan / Jonathan are still a power three. It sucks really bad that we're all separated [FUCK YOU, TROY! ], cause we can't work together. But we're still all alive, and doing well in our different tribes, so it's all good!
It kind of benefits me that I'm separated from them, because it helps me get that idol off of the Ides Of March twist I doubt anyone will know I got it either. It's definitely going to help me out in this game. Hopefully I can get it! Merge is coming soon, and I just need one more.
Me & Jenn are still staying strong together as well. Her, Ethan, and Jonathan are all in the same tribe, so I guess they're working together? I'm not sure. It'd be smart if they did though.
Me & Lillian have been talking since round one or two. I heard she was a great player, so obviously I wanted to work with that; we've been PMing each other, and helping on the Ides Of March twist. I know she's sneaky though, so I'm all over her. [ I didn't give her one Ides Of March answer; so she wouldn't have the upper hand on me]. I doubt she has 3/3. I think I'm the only one with [hopefully] the HII.
The thing thing that worries me is my tribe. Sandy and Candice together on a tribe? I don't know...they're obviously working together. And I'm not sure if I can trust Jamie at all...so this definitely hurts my position in my tribe. Though, it looks like my whole tribe is working together, and no one is being sneaky at all; so I shouldn't be too worried.
Uhhh...All I can say is I CAN'T WAIT TIL MERGE!!! If I can get my Hidden Immunity Idol this round, Merge will be a breeze for me, especially since I'll be in the majority. Final 2, here I come!

Yay~ at my idol win! Now I can finally breeze around the game, without worry. No one will know that I have the idol, and I'm definitely not telling anyone. Not even Ethan & Jonathan.
I was hoping to be the only one with an idol, but Lillian got hers a round before me. That shouldn't affect me, since she doesn't know I have it. The element of surprise is my advantage.

Us five guys got together and decided to vote out a girl [Since there was 5 girls v/s 5 boys]. We weren't about to let another Vietnam happen [Where the girls voted out all the guys], so even though I cannot STAND that little bitch, Jamie -- we all voted Tijuana. I was speaking to Lillian and Jenn about also voting her out; but both of them seemed straight on voting Jamie. So I wonder who was the 6th person? I don't care either way; I'm safe!
I'm so glad my plan worked. Tijuana is outtt. I wanted her out after Rudy made his exit, but then we had that stupid tribe swap. Ugh. Thank god she's pre-jury too! Haha. She doesn't deserve prejury, but hey...no one else left deserves it either.
I think us 5 guys are just going to eliminate one more girl [Maybe Sandy?], so it could be a 5 guys v/s 3 girls thing. Then, I want to vote Jamie off. I just can't stand him playing in this game anymore. So after he's gone, we'll still have majority with 4 v/s 3. I'm most definitely not going to target Lillian until much later. Probably the final 5, where idols are useless.
My ideal final 5 would be Me / Jenn / Jonathan / Lillian / Ethan. That way, Idols will be useless, and Lillian / Jenn would just be voted out.
Obviously this plan will not be successful, unless we pull some ~shockers, due to there being an unknown amount of idols on the field... Hopefully, we'll see what happens.

Why do I feel like I should use my idol this round?

Yay. No votes for me. I would've been so pist if I had followed my instict, and used my idol for no reason. I would've pulled a Jamie! Lmaoo. What an idiot. I'm soo glad our plan worked, and he used his idol. We were going to vote him out this round, and had he not used his idol, one of us would've been gone. But that bitch is stupid, so I have nothing to worry about
So, the plan for this week...
We've already struck fear into Sandy / Candice by voting them this week. Their alliance got all of the votes this week, so it's obvious that they're going to feel threatened this round as well... SO! I am hoping that they would do something that Jamie just did, and use their possible idols [I'm sure Candice has one; Not sure about Sandy], and waste it. We're going to be voting for Jamie this round, but are making it seem like we're voting one of them, so that they will use their idols.
One they use them, and Jamie is out; we'll be voting them the round after this one. I'm not going to be voting anyone unless I'm sure that they don't have an idol; I'm not playing a stupid game this time.
As for the final 5, I'm hoping it will be: Me / Jonathan / Ethan / Lillian / Jed.
I want to bring Lillian down to the final 5, because I'm know she's not stupid, and I wouldn't be able to use the trick that I'm did/ doing to Sandy/Candice/ Jamie. And since the idol is useless in the final 5, it'll be the best thing to just carry her there, and then eliminate her. I would want to bring her to the final 4, but I know she's a strong competitor and will probably win the missions; and I can't have that! Haha.
After the final 4, Jed would obviously be eliminated. Then my main alliance; Jonathan, Ethan, and I will have made the final 3! The perfect alliance. ¢¾ Hopefully, I will be able to win the final 3 mission, and if I do that, I'd probably eliminate Jonathan. For the soul reason of people viewing him as doing more than Ethan did. Ethan would probably be an easy win for me, and that's what I came here to do. Hopefully everything will go as planned!
Wish me luck.

Ugh. Fuck yo couch... Jonathan is gone.
I would've just orgasmed all over the floor if Lillian or Jed were to be eliminated. Sadly, it was more likely that someone from my alliance would be gone; and they were.
Now we're at a huge disadvantage. It's two versus three... I think that no one really wants Jamie here that bad, so hopefully me or Ethan could win this next Immunity Challenge, and keep Jamie from taking it. That way, we'd have an opportunity to eliminate Jamie, and keep my alliance further in the game.
Ethan isn't exactly the BEST person to have as a partner at this moment, but we've made it this far... we could only hope that he has some power of persuasion.
The only advantage we have here is the element of ignorance. No one really suspected my alliance with Jonathan & Ethan. We played it off so well with our PMs, and the way we acted towards each other. I really don't think that anyone saw / sees it, and that is a huge advantage. If they did know about us, then we would've been targetted so much more in past rounds.
Hopefully Ethan could finally pull his own weight and work some magic. We need it right about now...
