OK - I need to write down what everyone wants so I can keep this all straight. I have to keep talking to everyone so I know where everybody is. I'll tell them exactly what they want to hear..... keep everybody in my pocket...

1. Erinn - This one is easy. Erinn wants a united Koblenz 6 to eliminate Tarforst in the next 5 challenges. She wants confirmation that I will do that. Sure - I will do that. Here's the deal Erinn - you left me here to cement the relationship with Lydia. That's what you wanted me to do. And I did it - better than you could have ever expected. So don't take this relationship away so quickly. If you'd just trust me - you could make final 2 as we've always said.

2. Ken and Becky - Want me to vote Rodger with them. Get rid of the idol. They talk like they are completely isolated from the rest of Tarforst. Uh-huh. But that we can talk to the rest of Tarforst and go after Rodger. Sure - I will do that. I have to talk to them. I have to tell them the plan is Rodger. I don't have a choice - otherwise, they'll start talking to someone else. The more time you spend with me - the less you spend it elsewhere....

3. Kim - Has family in town and won't be on much this weekend. I think we are ok - certainly better off than the Austin-Erinn relationship right now. She's going to want a Becky vote. Which is absolutely the right thing to so - no question. The next two votes are easy in my opinion - Ken and Becky - and Kim will be good with that. I can keep Kim happy for a while.

4. Holly - I think my real final 2 has shifted to Holly. I really do. She plays smart. Of course I say that, because we have the exact same numbers. So we are united in our strategy. We both really do tell each other everything. Of most concern right now - Holly told me that Lydia gave her half of the idol to Rodger. Which brings me to..

5. Lydia and Tanya - I should probably separate these two because of how close I am to Lydia - but Lydia is saying she's going to try to get the HALF-IDOL from Rodger - but I thought he has the whole thing now? There is concern here that Tanya is finding ways to protect herself. I don't think Lydia has told her there is a final 3 of Lydia - Tanya - Austin. I need Lydia to tell her that. But I do think Lydia and Tanya are playing the game - seeking additional protection. It's a smart thing to do - I don't blame them. But I sure wish they'd stay tight with Holly and I and not wander.

6. Rodger - Trying to reinforce that notion that Rodger and I have been in an unspoken alliance since his offer. I told him that Becky and Ken are gunning for him. And I asked him straight up about the idol. See what he says - he may not want to answer - he may lie about it. But either Holly or Lydia misrepresented some facts. Just trying to get to the bottom of it.

7. Sugar - So Sugar said she wants to work together - since we are the two that are the last man out on our repsective original tribes. I need to keep fueling this. That I want to protect her and keep working with her. That means just more conversation. See if I can swing her to vote Becky on Sunday. That's the real test.

8. Frosti - Last but not least - the most likely player to go rogue. I need Frosti to believe that Koblenz is absolutely staying together to the end. I can't really tell where his head is. The tone of his messages has changed. There seems to be a little bitterness in it - like he knows we're all full of crap. The main reason why I have to tell everybody exactly what they want to hear is because of Frosti. I cannot let him ruin my plans. Wait - what plans? I can't let him hurt my alliances.... all 10 of them...

And again - the intangible here is likeable Austin. The one everybody likes and trusts and wants to talk to - the one everyone thinks they have a final two or three with. (Well, not Ken and Becky - they can say what they want - but they ain't taking me nowhere once they have numbers in their favor...) That is ABSOLUTELY gonna get me voted out once we have numbers. I still haven't figured out how to get away from that.

Just like last season..........I love how I rarely even ask follow-up questions.


I don't really need to.


You just lay it all out there every time......
