I'm really not sure how good of a position I'm in going into the challenge tonight. There's lots of people on and no one is sending me messages. Either that means I'm in trouble or everyone feels comfortable with me. Let's hope it's the good one.

On Monday I set up a vague 5 person alliance with myself, Rob, General, Hunter, and Gabe. Rob and General were worried about how close I am with Gabe. I tried to play it off but I think they still know.

Another good thing I have going on is with myself, Gabe, and John. John is giving us inside information about Peter's alliance (Peter, John, Rob, General, Hunter). He's been instrumental to my game these past couple of days.

It's been very hard playing catch up. I have very limited options. The plus side of this is that I know exactly how I need to play. It's just a matter of if I can pull it off.

I'm hearing now that Peter is targeting me. Not worried about it. Peter is just a clown. He messaged me yesterday to berate me for not posting on the public forums. I really wanted to work with him but he's so abrasive. It's frustrating. Now he won't even respond to my messages.

I don't like how inactive the guys are. I get paranoid every time I log in to zero messages. With the amount of days I missed, I could easily be going first. Anything is possible and anyone could be lying to me.

IF things go the way I think and Peter goes home then I'm in an interesting position.

I would have the alliance of me, Gabe, Hunter, Rob, and General. But I still have the threesome with me, Gabe, and John. If me, Gabe, and John can pull in Sean then all of a sudden we have 4/7 and we could take out a HUGE threat in Rob, Hunter, or General. I think I mentioned earlier, I really LIKE Rob and General but they're very good players. It would likely serve me better to have them gone.

That's all that's on my mind at the moment, I'll continue writing after the challenge if I'm still here :)

Did I singlehandedly get the vote moved from Sean to Peter? I have no idea. Maybe I got it moved to me. I did very well in the challenge but I don't think that's even taken into account when players are looking for someone to vote out. But as far as I'm being told there will be 7 votes for Peter if we ever lose. Even if a couple of those are reluctant votes.

I sent Sean a message trying to break this impenetrable wall he seems to have around him. If I can get Sean on my side, I feel like I'll be in an incredible position (all things considered). I do still feel behind from showing up late. But at the same time I've been able to use that to craft a unique position. Me and Gabe immediately clicked because of it and now we're working as a unit with John.

I honestly don't even remember how things started with John. I was just talking to him like I was to everyone else but apparently something got through to him. That's the crazy thing about the start of these games. You just have to have that little bit of personality to be able to "click" with someone. I don't want to call it luck but sometimes that's what it feels like.

I have zero messages in my inbox right now. Same as I have all day. It's frustrating, really. When people messages less then the players have less incentive to come online more often and it creates this snowball effect of less messaging. It works out for me this time though. I've been very busy. I'm worried it's gonna be like this all summer. I imagine that's what it feels like for the responsible adults EVERY time they play. Still, being online a lot is a big part of doing well in one of these games. It makes people trust you, you get to have the last word. That's huge.

If my tribe keeps winning immunities I think I'll be happy. I'm assuming we'll have a swap after a few rounds. Can you imagine going to tribal only once or even zero times before a tribe swap? Oh baby. There would be plenty of shenanigans going on if that happened. You know how much I like to flip sides and work with the underdogs. How good would it feel to work with the girls and throw a couple guys under the bus? Fantastic is the answer to that question. In all honesty, though, I might end up just sticking it out with these guys. I've played enough catch up and I feel like I can hold my own in this tribe. Obviously there's always the possibility I'm being fooled but my gut tells me I can do a good job in this Rotu tribe

Anyways, it's time for me to get ready for work.

"Westley out" ;) :P
