Good Morning dear Host..... Such a relief knowing we have our tribes now and there isnt 17 people potentially plotting against you, only 6 LOL!!! Woke up this morning and realized tribe alignment could have been alot worse, I could have been stuck with Westley and I could have potentially found less faces around me that enjoy my company. I think im going to be ok for awhile my only concern with this tribe is going to be winning challenges consistantly. Leia is definately standing out as the weak link right now. I mean with how the challenge went down (which we were in the lead btw) to her disappearing and not chatting with our tribe - it doesnt bode well at all. |

How do you see your game going so far, as compared to your "Richard" and "Becky" experiences? |

Richard was my learning experience and Becky was me executing the flaws that were pointed out in Richards game. Buttercup is going to be alot like Becky but im going to try and tone down the "leadership/Playmaker" persona a bit and try and be more of a fly on the wall. I feel good about my position on the tribe since ive heard people commenting on Lucy playing the friendly card and doing it with everyone, Ivan and his "character personality" were irritating people so that already leaves me in a decent light right there. I tend to believe the Atreyu's and Johnnys of the tribe when they say they enjoy talking with me and that our conversations flow naturally. The social game should never be my weakness. A little bit of personal insight here for you Brobst, I treat these games like dealing with my family at times, LOL Growing up my parents DID NOT get along in the least bit so i grew up knowing who i was around and adapting my personality accordingly and playing both sides so they seen in me what they wanted to. Think this has kind of helped me in these survivor games because if Ivan wants to see the cute little princess he is going to be the Hero for that is the role im going to play with him. If Lucy wants to see the conniving Bitch/Black Widow Buttercup that is what she is going to see. So a long answer to your short question, I feel ok at the time being and think by me not opening up as much in the beginning with everyone has endured me to my tribe since the times i do open up seem more sincere. I Loved playing as Becky but I think Buttercup is going to have a bit more success. |

Just saw your post about vote reveal and all I can say is WOW.... although this could make it fun since we wont know breakdowns it will make it easier to vote against friends if need be! |

Interesting is an understatement to say the least.... but moving on to things within my control. It isn't set in stone yet but I think I am going to be sitting this challenge out so i can enjoy fireworks with the family on Wed night. The group plan, or at least what i have heard from Lucy and Johnny is a prevote for Leia and backup for Atreyu(?) Don't know if the backup vote is really set in stone but the general consensus is to let me sit out so that Leia can show if she can perform in the challenges or not. its really a win win for us. If she performs well and we win the challenge it gives her a second shot at things and more time to get active on the boards and chat with her tribemates. If she doesn't do well and we lose she goes home and although we are down one person we become a stronger tribe. the trick is if we lose because of someone else then it becomes REALLY interesting, but i think Leia's social game or lack thereof is what is really going to do her in. No one has really seemed to hear from her and I barely see her on. it's a big hole she has dug herself in, but hopefully she has the tools to get herself out of it! |

I read over and over in you all"s (pardon my slang) confessionals how little I communicated and how little I participated but in reality you all gave me nothing to work with. And every time Ivan popped his head up it was like school girl crushes all around,,,,, oooohhhh Ivan dropped the fake accent!!! SWOON!! Really??? Just Barf! Why didn't I connect? Why did you all think I only came around "scrambling" the day of challenges??? Because that is what you all wanted to believe... I was on. I lost sleep. I also was on way too much at work and it did threaten my job... yeah I saw you post that BC, I felt it too.... "This new Ivan is great" Neat. PS- I absolutely adore Ivan IRL.... and he knows it < 3 |

I wish we still had access to look at PM's but Ivan dropping the Russian Schtick was great at the time because with 6 people in a tribe anything you can use against someone to vote them out will be used. and you dropped the ball on the first challenge and then Ivan had his annoying Russian accent going on so votes were in the air between two of you. so when he dropped the accent we knew it would open a door for more communications and not just pictures and sill russian catch phrases. I know im not the only one that only got messages from you on challenge days but it was like you would sign off immediately after the challenges and messages got slow responses and when you did response it never left anything to respond back to. there was no foundation to build trust/ alliance off of. SORRY |
