Maya is trying to give me the "tough girl" act. Please don't even bother.

Can you explain further what that means?

Where do you go from here? After a chaotic round where you voted in the majority, are you feeling safe right now? Who is the next to go? Who do you want to go?

How does the 3-tribe dynamic play into this merge? How hard is it to navigate?

Congrats on the jury!

Whelp. We just pulled off quite the coup there. I spent the entire weekend positive we were gonna be losing out on this vote. We were not organized. We didn't even have an idea of who we'd be voting going up into the challenge. I wanted to target Elle for sucking in PMs. Khan and Sue tho thought she was cute, and Ron did too. They were all predisposed to keepin' her, which frustrated me cuz they weren't bringing up any alternatives. And the alternatives we were possibly lookin' at were...Lisa, who I didn't feel confident would lose in a challenge, and Juno, who I loved in PMs.

Oh gosh, but then Elle comes out of nowhere at the last minute and flips? What a rush those last few minutes before the challenge were trying to work this out. I was so skeptical cuz Elle had barely talked to me, and I had ideas to leave her in the dust. She wanted to go after Maya if Maya wasn't immune...but going into a tie breaker against Maya is way too frightening. Elle offered Juno up as an alternative, so I was thinking if Maya wasn't immune we'd just lie to Elle and take out Juno anyways just to be safe. Turns out it was just paranoia, and Elle was legit.

I realize Elle is probably awful, and she was the worst on her tribe. I mean she hardly gave me anything to work with. I KNEW she was on the bottom of her tribe but I was thinking of targeting her just cuz it'd be easiest for us and she barely gave us anything. What is this poop about waiting until the exact last minute to make a movie??? I'm glad she did but golly...coulda planned that better.

I liked Juno a lot. I didn't getta confess about all this, but we talked the most over the weekend and I developed such a bond with her and I knew going forward I might be able to work with her. But no doubt this gal was all up in the majority of Casablanca, and I wasn't gonna argue extensively with the one person flipping on the power tribe. I woulda preferred like, Lisa, but apparently Elle likes Lisa cuz she's the only one that didn't talk down to her too much. What a great reason for keeping someone safe.

Going forward, the idea is pretty much to keep on Casablanca. May and Lisa and Norma, specifically. Not Eleanor, cuz I've been working on a bond with her because of our time in the Vault. We progressed a great deal and we even had an idea for a cross tribal thing. I didn't expect her to side with us on this vote, but I have to admit...I lied to her about it, saying it was Lisa. I didn't wanna tell her the truth cuz I was worried about the Blood Diamond, and Elle said she's tell on us. Eleanor was all mad at me about this, but then the vote reveal happened and Juno left - and suddenly Eleanor is all about her being total loyal to me and Juno being her only connection to Casablanca and yadda yadda. I hope she doesn't hold that against me cuz it had nothing to do with her.

Plus, I may wanna use her in the future. I'm pursuing an alliance between Sue/myself/Khan/Ron, and while that'll keep me safe - I think I'm playing for an end game of me/Amy/Cal. And Sue has issues with Amy and I also know Sue gets along with Elle. I gotta deal with all of this eventually, and make a move before it turns on who I want in the end. This is obviously down the line of course, but I wanna talk about it with certain people now.

Maya was trying to get tough with me in PMs and saying how she heard I was the HBIC. Well ya know, maybe I am and maybe I'm not, either way I don't take tude from people, so I gave her some back of my own. I don't care if she doesn't appreciate me takin' out a great social player like Juno, but I'm not gonna cry endlessly like Casablanca has been doing. I pull up my big girls panties and am moving on.

But this Blood Diamond thing is very interesting to hear, that it's gone? I think Khan has it, honestly.

Eleanor and Elle both have come to me separately for alliances now with big PMs. Eleanor is saying she's gonna play double agent but tell me everything. Elle says she thinks I'm in the core and she wants to be in the core too and then she passed me a little note with a no and yes check box for whether or not I liked her, and I checked yes.

I kinda feel vulnerable. I'm not sure what to do exactly when Casablanca stops becoming a huge threat, but things like Elle telling me she heard me, Cal and Amy were a threesome is gonna get to me. I may have to try and make a move first. I'm especially worried about Khan/Ron? I'm pursuing an alliance with them with Sue but I swear to heck that Khan has that blood diamond...he's gotta.

Maya is going tonight but it looks like Norma may be the backup instead? Sounds peachy to me, based on performances we've seen, Norma might actually be better than Lisa. Plus, Lisa is sneaking her way into Elle's good graces. She spouts off but in PMs she is working on Elle, Elle defends her a lot and says she is playing a character. But she has no love for the rest of the lot.

Marge - Sue - Amy - Cal
Marge - Amy - Cal
Marge - Sue - Khan - Ron
Marge - Eleanor - Ron
Marge - Elle - ???
Marge - Eleanor - ???


I'm thinking making an alliance with the Casablanca girls going forward might help, but I got no idea how willing Eleanor and Elle are to working together.

I was so busy today I had nine unanswered PMs when I got back. NINE. It's all in a days hard work, but I don't know if I can maintain this. I expect my strategic game to come crashing down sooner or later.

This is such a mish-mash rag tag group of people. What a weird alliance we are.

Super absurd with Norma being immune. I guess Ron didn't vote or something...ugh...I think I'm going, because the vote wouldn't go onto Eleanor and Fat Amy pre voted Lisa. I'd hate it but, we got backed into a corner. Shoulda maybe pushed harder for Eleanor to go. But at least I can stop stressing the heck out if I go.
