I'm glad this tribe is going to stop being a tribe soon. Do not get me wrong, I quite enjoy the dramatics. But I must admit I am weary of my alliance...a little. When it first formed I felt much more in the center of it all, what with the Xander's being at war with each other and Xavier being alone in the alliance.

But now we have Raven, and now we have Ivan, and now all the Xander's have made up and kissed the boo boos of their wounds with Johnny, and suddenly we have four Xander's who are looking relatively more united than their tribe once was, and three Asteroid-M's who are all aligned.

I connect well with loads of them, it's why I'm in the stupid alliance, but when you just look down on paper, I am somewhat of an odd man out, are I not? Rogers is an incredibly good player and my connection with him is strong, but it is still only one line in the web.

Hence why I cannot wait to move into the next stage of the game and reunite with some of my C-E. Not Susan, she needs to leave Benjamin alone. I knew she was trouble. But with Loki, and Emma, and Bobby, and Benjamin, I'd finally feel some more weight on my side in the same way that Xavier has Raven and Ivan and Rogers has all of Xander on this tribe.

The interesting clash is that I am sure Loki and Emma have carved out a majority alliance on Utopia and are united in some way with most of that tribe. When we merge the delineation can easily split between what I would consider my two alliances in this game, and I'd have to make some decisions depending on the format.

There are people I will not eliminated under any circumstances:

Loki
Emma
Bobby
Benjamin
Rogers
Parker
Xavier

are right now the ones I consider not expendable. I am building up something with Raven I feel to the point I might include her in there.

Then I have more periphery "allies" who I can turn on easily:

Ivan
Thor
Susan
Johnny

I don't even consider Susan and Johnny to be my allies, just two people I am connected with loosely through association. I'm going to try and jump start ties with them, obviously, but they are also two of the people left in the game I'd probably like to see leave.

I'd much prefer to target the leftovers who to this point I am not tied to. But who knows maybe I am tied to them, maybe when I meet up with C-E again they will bring with them allies as well I could use.

It's a lot to think about. For this round, it's just Bruce going. The mutinier is going if we can't vote Bruce (assuming they join us). Then maybe Johnny, which is what spooks me actually since Xander may not want to do that. What if they want out Ivan? How would Xavier react? What if they do not want to piss him off when he's crucial to the alliance going forward? What about me? Would Rogers be enough to keep me safe if they really wanted Johnny safe? But why would they want me gone over Johnny of all people? Maybe my connections to other tribes. But that can be an asset, not a curse, and helpful to them.

I'm over-thinking things, but I just had this growing disquiet throughout most of today when I was here.

If I'm reading this correctly, your priorities seem to be very much stuff from the first week of the game - your tribe + your Bloodties partner with a slight side of this Genosha tribe. Hell, it's just Parker and Charles.

So those 3: Remy, Erik, and Kurt would all be safe so long as Bruce doesn't win immunity this round, or is that conditional on who it may be? If for the first time, you get nobody after the Arena, and Bruce were to win, then who? I ask that not only as what others may have been talking about, but if you had the sole voice in the decision.

I would say that is correct. I'm close to including Raven into non-expandable ally territory as well.

As for the mutineer, I say they will go next simply because Parker says he can't be here today for the round and he pre-voted whoever comes as the backup. But I've been thinking if Kurt came, we could mold him to our side. If Banner isn't immune, that is, we can vote him out still and bring in Kurt. Erik may be trickier since he has past issues with about 40% of our alliance. We'll see.

Remy is a lunatic who thinks what he's doing is amazing, but it's just pathetic. Apparently he likes me in a really strange way but this is just sad.

Thor thinks we can convince him we're voting Ivan, which would be hilarious if he didn't play his reactor. I'd buy he'd fall for that, or he'd mess up again. I'd like to vote him out again.

I even made a fatal error that cost me two minutes and yet I beat these two. Interesting.
