Who's the target this round? And since immunity can always cause a wrench in the plan, do y'all have a backup vote in mind?

Jill's time is finally up. She's gotten this far because she isn't a threat to us. The other girls hate her and she's voted for them both I believe. So, there is no legitimate fear of her teaming up with them (and don't you dare instigate it!) :)

BUT, now it's time to cut her off. If we voted a guy out next, there would be an even number of guys and girls. Can't have that. Too risky since we don't know what the tiebreakers are. Jill COULD team up with them at that point. And you know how I said that Jill had the least chance of winning this game right now? at 3% I believe? Yeah, if we actually allow her to make it to the Final TC, she will win easily, possibly in a unanimous vote. So, she HAS to go.

I really hope Jill doesn't win immunity. If she does, it will likely be Ace that goes home. We just can't expect him to side with us after the last vote. He is SOOOOOO shady, but he is sly about it. I picked up on it long ago and Hunter seems to have finally come around. But, Frank is still in the "Ace is neat" mindset. It's bizarre. Plus, if we voted out Deena or Crystal next, they likely wouldn't give me their vote at the Final TC because they will be pissed and blame me and Hunter. And it's also nice having them be the pair that everyone wants to split up. That takes the focus off of me and Hunter.

Good fight. Good night.

I'll just assume you're joking. Instigating is up to y'all. Not me.

So, THIS far into the game ~ is it still just guys vs girls?

It's definitely NOT just guys vs. girls anymore. Did you see the last vote? :)

BUT, if we were to let the girls have the numbers, they could, possibly, potentially, band together and just get rid of the guys.

Probably not though lol

I'm just quoting your own words. Looks like you definitely have a guy/girl mindset. If nothing else, then at least for this vote.

Sooooo...


WE'RE AT THE FINAL SIX:


1) Do you think the game could go in a completely different direction from here, or do you feel your position within the tribe is very obvious?

2) What do you honestly see yourself getting right now....first place? 2nd place? 3rd place? Or do you feel too vulnerable like you won't make it that far?

3) From here on, do you see yourself being the one setting up a potential blindside, or being the one blindsided?

DangerZone 08092011:

This will likely be the last installment of the DZ. I got royally screwed over and now the end is near. The unthinkable happened and Hunter completely turned on me. He actually tried to throw the challenge so I couldn't win it and then they could vote me out. BUT, I screwed up their plan by winning Immunity. And then Hunter was cocky enough to tell me flat out that he tried to throw the challenge and that he was going to vote me out. I asked Ace if I was supposed to go home and he just came out and gloated and started attacking me personally. It was ridiculous. Ace even claimed that I was attacking HIM, which was completely untrue. I've made sure others know the truth though, since I've since gone back and forwarded several incriminating messages from Ace/Hunter to me to every player in the game.

I will be going home tonight and I'm actually relieved. I will fight like hell to win immunity, but if I don't I'm gone. These guys tried to vote me out last time because they knew I wouldn't be able to spill their lies if I got blindsided. But, I survived and now they must pay. It's one thing with Ace. From a strategy standpoint, I'm fine with what he did. But, he didn't need to make it personal and gloat about it. Hunter, on the other hand, just completely blew my mind. I really thought that he, Frank, and I would take this to the end. I even told Hunter that I would have been content to lose to him in the Finals. We had many personal conversations, and I really didn't think he would be this ruthless in a game that doesn't even have a prize at the end.

I really thought the "3 Little Pigs" alliance was going to take this thing. I never would have predicted that our "house" would be blown down from the inside. I guess I should have use more trustworthy bricks.

I've told Jill, Frank, and Crystal that they need to vote out either Ace/Hunter after I'm gone if they want to win this game. Otherwise, Hunter and Ace will take each other to the Finals because it's their best chance to win. Jill and Frank would win in a landslide. Crystal might have a tougher time because the girls don't like her.

If you think you've seen bitter jurors in the past, just wait and see what happens if Hunter is in the Finals.

ALRIGHT . . .


SO, YOU'RE IN THE FINAL 5:


1) How important is winning the next immunity for you?

2) Who do you think will be the next person to go?

3) Describe how you think this next round is going to go down.

1. Winning immunity at the next challenge is VITAL for me, just as it was last night and the time before. I'm enjoying being able to rain on their parade a little bit. It's funny.

2. If I don't win, I'm going home. Hands down. If I DO win, it will be Jill going home more than likely. Neither her nor Frank seems to understand that they would be better off getting rid of Hunter or Ace. They could use me as a swing vote, but they are completely brainwashed. It's clear that they both think they will be going to the Final 2. They think that is great because they will beat one of those guys. But, they won't even make it that far. Hunter and Ace are smart enough to know they need to go to the Final 2 together. Hell, if Hunter was willing to backstab me, then he will backstab Frank.

3. I think I pretty much described how I think the round will go down. I will either win the challenge and Jill will go home, or I will lose and go home myself. I just wish that Jill and Frank would smarten up. Everyone knows I won't work with Hunter anymore, so that is a valuable tool to have at your disposal. The saddest part is Frank talks like he doesn't think he can win anyway. That makes him difficult to work with. There is either A ) no greed there, B ) he really thinks he's going to the Finals and will win an "underdog" vote.

Man, still no wiggle room with these people. EVERYONE is comfortable with their position in this game and no one seems to think it's worth using me as a swing vote. They are that brainwashed into thinking I'm this villain that Ace and Hunter have painted me into being. Either that or they think that I would win a Final Jury vote based on my "back against the wall" predicament.

If and when I go out, it's definitely going to be swinging. Would you expect anything else from Danger Dave? Damn right you wouldn't. My strategy for the last immunity challenge paid off. I decided I was going to bid all $600 if I had to on the first item and hope that it was immunity. And boy did that pay off. Not the first time I've had good fortune in this game. I thwarted their attempt to blindside me the TC before by pulling an IC miracle. Don't be surprised if I do it again. Anything is possible in this game.

They should have known by now that I'm Dangerous.

Do you think you had a hand in any of that? Even if not so much recently, but by your initial reactions after Deena left at F7 and you were informed that you were the target that night?

I guess you could say that my reaction was part of it, but my reaction wasn't what Ace made it out to be. If you saw the messages, I just asked Hunter if he had just turned on me, and I asked Ace if I was supposed to go home if I hadn't won immunity. Ace answered me by mocking me and gloating. I totally understood HIS decision from a strategy standpoint. Then, he repeatedly attacked me personally, stretching the limits of this game. Of course, he tried to say I was the one doing that, which is untrue. I went back and re-read the entire conversation to make sure. Thinking back, it's not the first time that Ace said someone "attacked him personally". There is a good chance that he either a) does it on purpose or B) is a little delusional about it.

With Hunter it was personal. He and Ace act like blindsiding me all about strategy and "nothing personal". And they preached that I shouldn't be mad at all and that nobody else acted "that way" when they had their backs against the wall. But, please. NO ONE else in this game went through what I did. My BEST FRIEND and ally in this game, who I've had several personal conversations with, tried to throw a challenge and blindside me, based solely on the "possibility" that someone would try to break us up at the next TC. Plus, when I just asked him about it his response was "yeah, I turned on you. Nothing personal. Sorry." It's like "um okay your sorry. Whatever. You are just sorry that I won immunity and found out because now I can make you look bad by spilling your secrets" You see, THAT is the real reason he felt the need to blindside me. That way I couldn't tell anyone anything.

At a point in this game a while ago, I decided that we didn't need to just blindside people JUST to blinside them, unless they really betrayed us. That's why I argued with the guys about voting Coach out before Scout. That's also why I wanted Jill to go home before Jamie. Jamie had put his own foot in his mouth by making up lies, but he still didn't need to go home before Jill. I made two mistakes though. 1) I severely misjudged how much Hunter wanted to win this game. I figured since there is no prize at the end, that he wouldn't feel the need to betray me. 2) I was SO up front with Frank about the alliance with Deena/Crystal that he got nervous about it.

So yeah, despite the fact that it sounds like YOU think it was my reaction that caused their perception of me, I don't think that it is fair. I'm not mad at Frank or Ace about their strategy. Hell, I understand it. I was mad at Ace for being a jerk about it for no reason. And I was mad at Hunter for betraying me when he really had the game in the bag already and didn't need to do it the way he did.

It's not about what I think. It's about asking questions for you to explain your side of things. Because as much as I write gigantic Confessionals round by round.....similarly to how SURVIVOR edits 3 days worth of footage down to a 43-minute episode.....I have to write about the prevailing storyline. I can't necessarily write about every single thing that every person says. None of you would want to read it all afterwards. And there aren't enough hours in the day for me to do that anyway.
