1) Last round was the first blindside! How did you react to the vote?
I felt bad for Julie, I did. But at the same time, she had no real allegiance to me (or if she didn't make it clear) so I couldn't risk flipping the vote onto someone else if I was eventually going to get picked off by them. Plus, after the vote, she messaged me on my real account saying how she sincerely hoped I had nothing to do with her ouster and how she "chose to believe me out of the goodness of her heart". That really stuck out to me because she was SOOOO condescending and pretentious about it. Like...you've voted my ass out of games before so for you to attempt to lecture me about all this is really self-righteous and smug. As if I don't have this right to play how I want to in an alias game because YOU'RE there. I dunno maybe it's just me, but it left a sour taste in my mouth. By the way, she just ASSUMED I was part of her boot and this game based on conjecture and who all voted for her and HOW they did...it just felt very accusatory. Anyway, I can't dwell on it because it'll just make me more frustrated.
2) We've asked you before who your closest allies are. Has this changed?
Well, it's changed in the sense of how it's looking from afar. Katie's unfortunately on the fringe which I really really really really don't want because I like her so much. Ugh. If it were up to me, we'd solidify our group of six which contains Yul/Austin/Brian/Candice/Katie/Myself but we can't do that just yet. I told Katie about this group and that we didn't need fo bring Austin/Yul into the fray till Final 8. But in actuality, tonight will (hopefully) be another blindside. Candice, Yul, Austin, Brian, Todd, and I are planning on voting for Teresa tonight. Teresa is a major threat who needs to be taken out before she can do damage. Brian was a mole for us supposedly and is convincing Teresa that the next two will be Todd and Jay. At Final 8, Teresa and the old Athena bloc would try and convince us all to vote Katie and then, Teresa would conveniently pull out her idol on Katie, sending one of us home. The good news is that Yul has a "goddess idol" of some sort which means his idol nullifies the use of other idols. If that's true, all we need tonight is the votes for Teresa to go and we can take her out. I guess if I had to say who I trusted the most at this point, it'd be Brian, but I'm still not completely sold yet. I want to trust Katie the most but she let me know I was on thin ice (which I should be) for not filling her in on everything before but an opportunity hadn't presented itself so I'll need to make sure that I do MAJOR damage control after this vote. I feel horrible about lying to Katie with this Teresa vote, especially because Katie's been a close friend of mine outside of the game for a while now, but I can't risk it. I think what I'll do is fill her in towards the end of the voting window. It's a bit of a copout but I have to let her know so I can clear my conscience.
