Not starting off with a video confessional because there isn't that much to talk about. As it stands, the most interesting people in the game are Yul, Austin, T-Bird, Candice, and Kass, but 4 of them are on the other tribe...just my luck. Ken and Katie are both boring, and NOBODY else on my tribe has been on when I've been on except for T-Bird, Ken, and Katie. The challenge is interesting, I'll give them that. Also...Athena's Temple. The Parthenon happens to be locked, and something locked like that screams an advantage. An idol? Quite possibly. I hope I can hop on that and crack that puzzle early because I want any advantage possible in this game.

So, we have up to four members who have contributed to the challenge so far: myself, LJ, Ken, and T-Bird. We're still down five, and none of them have even talked to me, which is unnerving. I mean, if someone doesn't show up, they're an easy boot. We still have another whole day before this is over, so I hope we get eight players contributing to the challenge. That way, if we lose, we just boot the inactive.

Katie is struggling with the concept of this challenge. How? Don't ask me, because it seemed pretty simple.

Good job Katie, you got it! Right now, I wanna talk to Ken about the possibility of an alliance. In all honesty, I like the other tribe better and probably will flip if the move makes sense and helps my game.

Okay, so Sabrina wants to work with me after very little talk. I don't like it...but she's the only one to offer me something, so I won't decline. I wanna try and start an alliance with LJ and T-Bird, but nobody has been talking strategy. I don't want to be the first, but at the same time, I don't want to get ostracized by a majority alliance.

So, we lost the first challenge. Stephanie burning an antidote without letting us know and no John Cody hurt our tribe a lot. Losing the challenge means tribal, and tribal means I could go home. Hopefully, because of John being inactive, we just boot him. Should be a no-brainer.

The consensus is on John - Brenda, LJ, Ken, and I are all voting John, and then T-Bird said she'd vote him if we lost earlier. Bye bye Dr. Cody.

Stephanie finally is online, and her enthusiasm is on Brenda's level right now. She also told me I'm a smart player, which is terrifying because that makes me a target, and I don't want to be a target. T-Bird said the tribe has a lot of respect for me, which could be a double-edged sword. It could make me a massive threat for being popular, or it could strengthen my position as a key member of this tribe. In any case, my contstant activeness and work in the challenge solidified my spot as a valuable Athena member. Hopefully we can win a few challenges so I can survive my way to the merge.

Holy flying fuck Stephanie told me T-Bird is plotting against me. I don't trust anyone here, but hearing that someone sees me as a huge threat is terrifying. Now, I'm not sure what my best course of action is. I personally wanna keep the information on the down low, because I don't want to offend Stephanie, but I might talk to T-Bird about it. Stephanie told me I was smart, and the only other person online was T-Bird, so it makes it more believable. What I plan on doing is, after the John vote if I survive, start a counter alliance with Ken, LJ, myself, Katie, and Stephanie. I hope I can make it through this vote and T-Bird isn't stupid enough to take me out at this stage in the game. Getting me out this early is a terrible idea because I can help in challenges, and removing an active player over an inactive one is incredibly stupid. However, there are a LOT of stupid people in ORGs...better hope for the best, and I really need to find whatever is inside Athena's Temple.

I talked some of this out with LJ and Katie, and I'm feeling a bit more safe now. LJ proposed grabbing Stephanie into an alliance with her now, and then Ken. His other proposal was an alliance with him, myself, Brenda, and T-Bird, giving us some options in case Stephanie was just stirring up some drama.

A new clue to Athena's Temple. Apparently there are three names, and then a King of Hearts was underneath. I think the names have to do with kings, whether it is of Athens or the gods or of different realms - I've tried major gods and goddesses, places, and then even the kings of Athens I know. I haven't made much headway, and I'm not sure if anyone can get it off of this clue. I'll probably try a few more things, and then wait for the next clue.

Less than two hours until the vote is revealed. I really hope everyone is just sticking to voting out John, and this "secret alliance" Stephanie revealed isn't actually gunning for me, or it's fake. I do NOT want to be the first boot.
