Okay so tonight had its ups and downs. I hate that Esme left, but thank God we don't have to worry about the 3 idols anymore. James w/e, we totally drifted apart in the last couple of days.

But there are some upsides. Firstly, I am in the Final 8 :<3 I've never made it this far and in a really, really big game like this. Secondly, I have immunity for Sunday night :<3 Thirdly, I still have an idol :<3 So I'm Final 5/6 bound at least?

Also, Charlie no longer has an idol, and neither does Seth. So targeting them should be slightly easier now. Now the Cullens just really gotta pull it out in this next HoH.

Oh but I do have a Team Jacob avatar for the time being :/ That was definitely a downside for tonight too. Gross.

Do you think Jacob will teach you the ways of the werewolf after the game ends?

Something I'm slightly concerned about is that since James never used his vote doubler and nullifier, I'm wondering if that will be transferred? I know that my item is transferable had I never used it. Idk. If that's the case than Seth probably has it.

Okay so seeing as I'm guaranteed safety for at least the next two rounds, my attention has shifted to the ~end times~ and how I'm gonna win this. Really, it's just super hard right now to perceive how the jury might be thinking and what they could possibly be basing their votes on, because although 8 people have already left, when you really think about it, how much "strategy" really went into all those boots? 6 of those jurors met an untimely end due to challenge performance and the luck of who placed in the top half of these challenges, it's not say Alec for example could give anyone sole or even partial credit for his "boot" considering there were multiple factors that led to it. You couldn't really make solid alliance and specifically target certain people just due to the format of the List.

So that's why the social game is important. I do feel like I made good bonds with Carlisle, Riley, Victoria, and Leah, and I was think I was more successful at doing that compared to others. Hell, even Alec said he was rooting for me when we didn't even talk that much. I do feel like my pre-merge game was super strong too but no one really ever cares about that part of the game when it comes to FTC.

One thing I realized is that I need Jasper up in the Final 3 with me. No one really likes him except for the Forks girls and his HoH reign last night solidified him into goat status in my opinion :shrug I feel like James could've been easy to beat too, ideally that was my Final 3 but I obviously can't do anything about that now.

Right now, I do feel like Rosalie/Angela/Irina are my biggest threats. Fuck Irina. If she makes it to the end after all the shit she's had to go through in this game then she will for sure win, no questions asked. She's probably my main target going into Sunday night actually :o

One thing I'm really trying to work on is my relationship with Seth. Like, he's been a thorn in my side for so long but he really is hanging on by a thread at the moment, he literally has no power, and he can't even target me these next two rounds even if he wanted to. So I'm actually strongly considering working with him now lol. Like, even if the Final 3 were to be me, him, and Jasper, I feel like even though Seth would be the only non-Cullen in the Final 3, I don't think he would necessarily get much support from Forks after so recently double crossing the girls over there, and even though he had a really good relationship with Esme, I'm about 90% confident she would vote for me over him :shrug To be honest, he just seems like such an easy opponent right now but I fear it's a little bit too little too late for both of us to really gain each others' trust. But I'm gonna work on it as hard as I can. I know Esme told Seth on her way out to try and team up with me and Rosalie and I think he's being genuine about it but there's just still part of me that will never be able to trust him completely.

But then there's the whole Rosalie issue. I will never, ever win against her. I have no idea what other people are thinking but I just totally get the feeling that people think I'm riding her coattails or something, which is complete bullshit, but that's just the way it is. She's been more aggressive and has a larger board presence than I do, so therefore I just have be riding her coattails, right? :rolleyes: But she's hella protected. I mean, I feel like the only person who would even be remotely interested in getting rid of Rosalie at this point is CHARLIE and lol at that ever happening, especially since she has an idol too. I dunno, we'll see what happens. Rosalie may have a ton of deals with other people right now but ultimately her loyalty is to me, so she's just bound to piss some people off eventually when she can longer protect them.

Excellent update. I feel completely invested in the CP Emmett right now, especially since you are guaranteed survival for at least two more rounds. Work that toast.

I'm sorry I haven't been giving much in my confessionals :cry Obviously the Cullen dynamics at the beginning were kind of boring, and then of course strategy wasn't really practical with the whole List thing, so hopefully things change now. I would've maybe been giving these confessionals earlier but thinking too far ahead isn't really my style I guess.
