Katie's confessionals

[katiecollins]

All my thoughts and little tidbits will go here.

[katiecollins]

So we enter this game, and immediately we were split up into 2 tribes. The game is Athena versus Ares. I was very excited to be put on the Athena tribe because Athena is the Greek Goddess of Wisdom and a resident ball-buster. She will not take shit from any man, and she will kick supreme godly ass. So in my opinion, Athena is a good role model for women and for me personally in this game.

In contrast, the Ares tribe is named after a gross, roid-raging, negative and angry god of war. He's just such a steaming pile of dickhead that I know that tribe will fail. And even if they win a bunch of challenges, I bet they'll all be hopeless losers who do nothing but in-fight amongst their own tribe members.

When I saw the tribes, I thought it was interesting that Kass and Julie were both on the other tribe. Obviously I'm glad that Julie and I are FAR FAR AWAY because I hate her, but I will miss Kass of course. Kass has been like a lawyer to me throughout my life and I'm definitely sad to not be on the same tribe as her. Oh well, I guess this just means I'll have to fight harder and kick some ass if I want to win this game. And I know I can do it even if I am alone.

[katiecollins]

So on our tribe, I immediately connected with Teresa. More than anybody else, T-Bird has befriended me when everybody else is just kind of dull. I mean sure nobody is outright mean to anyone, but I just haven't connected with anybody on our tribe. So when Teresa and I get together to talk strategy or just joke around about the tv shows we watch, it's the only time that I feel like I'm not completely alone in the tribe. So yeah, I would say Teresa is definitely my number 1 in this game. I wouldn't vote for her, and I would be shocked if she voted for me.

Another person I'm allied with is Brian. Now, I don't really know him and I've barely even talked with him. But before the game Kass told me that those two know each other outside of the game, so I should work with Brian. So far, I'm not sure if I even want to work with him. Whatever, I'll keep that option in my pocket just in case I want to do something with it.

Also, I have been involved in another alliance. It's called the GIRL POWER ALLIANCE. Since our tribe has 5 girls and 4 guys, Brenda thought it would be a genius idea for the girls to stick together. The problem is, Brenda never once talked to me before walking up to me, suggesting that we form a fabulous girls alliance and walked away. I'm laughing so hard because it was so abrasive of her. I don't even know what to think. Whatever, right now I'm going along with it because it doesn't sound half bad to be in a majority alliance. Teresa seems on board, so I will be cautiously optimistic about it. If I ever speak with Stephanie and/or Sabrina about it, maybe I'll feel more strongly in favor.

[katiecollins]

At the challenge, we lost. I'm so disappointed about this man. There's nothing I can do though, because it's nobody's fault. It's just one of those things that I guess I have to deal with. Whatever I'm over it. We have dead weight on the tribe to get rid of anyways. I'm pretty sure John Cody has been about as useful as a rock so far in the game, so why not just get rid of him.

I don't think I have to talk with people much because this is a pretty easy and straightforward vote. I'm not being overconfident by not really talking to anyone much about now, I'm just trying not to overplay my hand too early. If people think that I'm a legit player in this game they'll consider taking me down early. I just have to keep my head down, work hard enough to not be called out for laziness, and fly under the radar. I can make big moves down the road when it benefits me. Right now, I'm just gonna do what I've got to do.

[katiecollins]

~EPISODE 3 CONFESSIONALS~

So we get to our third challenge... And it's not a challenge. It's a fucking tribal swap. The weird thing is that Tyson was evacuated from the game at exactly that moment, so we were down to 15 people. Once I realized there was a swap, I was wondering how the hell there could be 2 new tribes given the 15 contestants still in the game... And then the bomb hit that there would be a third tribe. The new tribe is called Hades.

We were split up into 3 groups of 5 and I hate that so much. It basically gives very little wiggle room to play around with. If you don't take control of your tribe then you're going to be out. There's no more fat to trim and there's no way to hide. If I want to survive I'm going to have to work for it.

I saw the new Hades tribe, and it consisted of 3 former Ares members plus myself and Sabrina. This is basically the worst possible scenario for me. Sabrina and I never talked ONCE prior to this swap and she won't talk to me now. I know for a fact that if my tribe loses a single challenge, I'm going home. It's just a fact. So we get to the first challenge and it's basically a big brother challenge, but about survivor. Whoa that's just way trippy man. But anyways it's basically a game of chance. There's really no way to guarantee yourself a win in this one, so I let random.org decide all of my answers and I prayed to God that my tribe would be safe.

And thanks to divine intervention, Hades just barely got second place and I LIVE TO SEE ANOTHER DAY! I'm definitely going to thank the man upstairs for this one, but he might even have to do some voodoo to help me survive this horrible horrible tribe.

[katiecollins]

~EPISODE 4 CONFESSIONALS~

My life on Hades is basically an eternal hell-hole, which is rather fitting considering Hades' role in Greek mythology. But it's just so annoying being on a tribe with people who never ever ever talk to you. I feel like such a social pariah and it's wearing me down. It's so disheartening knowing that there's barely any chance of me surviving anyways. And I'm GOD DAMN SICK of having to fend for myself. I want someone to talk with. Somebody to strategize with. Somebody who will make me their prison bitch. I'm sick of having to fight in the game while other people get to float their asses around. I want to be dragged to the end by someone else.

But for the first time in forever, SOMEBODY ON MY TRIBE TALKED TO ME! I'M SO EXCITED! But for real Austin has started chatting with me. It's nothing more than small talk and I know he would never vote to keep me here, but it's nice to know that somebody is actually nice enough to talk to me. Maybe chivalry isn't really dead after all.

So we get to the challenge, and the new twist was that only one tribe would win immunity. WHAT THE FLYING FUCK?!?! Is it too much to ask for one round without any sort of twist? Basically because of this twist I am royally screwed. I'm 100% going to be the person voted out if my tribe loses, and there's a 66.6% chance of us losing. This sucks so many monkey balls right now. I'm going to put EVERYTHING into this puzzle so that maybe we can pull out a win.

At the challenge, Ares basically fell out of the running early. So it came down in a tight race of Athena vs Hades for immunity. I was flipping the fuck out because we HAD to beat them. It was the only way to keep me alive. AND WE DID IT! I'm so proud of myself for getting the second highest score in the challenge and for my tribemates for doing great as well. THANK JESUS FOR ANOTHER WEEK OF SAFETY. I'm basically clinging onto a cliff in this game and hanging on for dear life, but I still haven't fallen off yet. Maybe if I just hold out long enough, somebody will come along to save me! If not I'll just have to become my own master and slay all these basic bitches who don't see me as a threat.

[katiecollins]

KATIE:
hey you here?

AUSTIN:
Yup. What's up Katie?

KATIE:
why do you want me out next?

AUSTIN:
Who's saying I want you out next?

KATIE:
sources

i'm not going to fuck them over

but i know about the 7 person alliance deal and i know you want me out after todd

AUSTIN:
If you don't tell me who the source is, then there's no way I can contexualize what's going on. It's either you or Jay at this point from the 7 person alliance's stand point, and I've argued either side.

KATIE:
you shouldn't be thinking about that giant ass alliance any more

teresa is fucking gone. the game has started

me and jay are the least threatening people in this game and you want US gone? not a great strategy

AUSTIN:
Teresa leaving. That being said, allianceless people like you become dangerous the farther you get in, and you know that.

KATIE:
yes it's really dangerous to have someone who would lose in ANY jury vote there at the end

brilliant... idiot

AUSTIN:
It's dangerous to A. have someone who takes up a F2 spot you desperately want and B. have all the power at 5, 3, and possibly 7. Don't insult my game intelligence, I know excatly whhat I'm doing. Give me a rational arguement to keep you over Jay.

KATIE:
i don't think jay should be going

you have a billion threats all around and you want me out it's fucking ridiculous

AUSTIN:
OK, say I don't target you or Jay this round. Who should I target to better MY game?

KATIE:
it depends who you're closest with. i don't know all the dynamics of your stupid-ass alliance

but i do know that you're probably gonna be fucked over soon so ttyn

AUSTIN:
You listen to RHAP, right? All the big moves happen at odds, thats where power shifts. Don't come at me for making a safe vote at 8 and not give me any alternatives. Jay's a vote with me, why should I get rid of him over you?

KATIE:
okay this is a fucking online game if you want to make a move at any point feel free to do so. don't cop out with the EVEN NUMBER bullshit i don't want any of it

and i've already fucking said jay is no threat either. you should take out somebody who might actually be a threat to your game. otherwise you're glaring at a pretty little 6th place coming right up

AUSTIN:
You think I'm at the bottom? Oh, Katie, you wish you had the information I do. So, what you're saying is target Yul, Kass, Brian, LJ, or Candice at 8? All of them are with me right now, and the majority are with me for the forseeable future.

KATIE:
hunty look at the big fucking picture dollface

if i have all of this info about your alliance and your plans to boot me, NOT ALL OF THEM ARE WITH YOU. wake up cupcake

AUSTIN:
I know exactly who's not with me for the long haul, and who has my back. I also know that you are one of the people who doesn't have my back for certain, you've neverr even attempted to talk game with me until today. I was honest with you last round, and I didn't say you weren't going this round. Like it or not, YOU ARE A THREAT, and I already have blindside plans in check for who I knows going against me, so don't treat me like some dumbass who doesn't know the game.

KATIE:
I DID HAVE YOUR BACK ASSCLOWN

WHY DO YOU THINK I'M SO PISSED?

do you realize that you were legitimately the ONLY person who ever talked to me in this goddamn game besides Teresa?

DO YOU NOT REALIZE I WAS ENTIRELY LOYAL TO YOU?

seriously fuck off with your THREAT bullshit because we all know that i'm not one

AUSTIN:
Nope, didn't realize it then, don't neccesarily beleive it now. I understand you're angry at me now, and probs won't give me you're jury vote at the end should I make it there, but I did enjoy our convo. I understandd you're scrambling, and you can believe what you want, but I've been honest with you entirely in this conversation. I don't like loose votes, and you've never even talked to me about the vote. It's dumb to assume you have someones loyalty who you've talked to once or twice.

KATIE:
whatever i'm so fucking annoyed

i don't understand why everyone is plotting against me i'm literally fucking alone in this game

like seriously i've confronted 4 out of 6 of you big alliance bitches and ALL of you have admitted to targetting me

like fuck that shit

AUSTIN:
OK, lets go outside the lens of this game for now. Say there's two major cells, and one wild card. Do you want thatt wild card in the game if you know you're cells bigger than the other, even if theey're alone?

KATIE:
yes i want the wildcard in the game longer than the other cell

because if i take out the other cell i cut off the wild card's only option

but if i take out the wildcard the other cell has room to maneuver

AUSTIN:
If I take out the wildcard, when my cell splinters, there's not someone who's loyalty is in question who may vote against me. If I have mahority not only in my cell but in both cells, its safest to take out the wildcard.

KATIE:
if your cell splinters then you wouldn't be able to trust your own people so your logic makes no sense

AUSTIN:
Its a hierarchy. There's people I know I can trust deep in the game, and theres marraiges of conveience until say, 5. They have shared desires at 8, but not neccesarily later on.

KATIE:
if they have other agendas later on, then you should gut them now before they can gut you

leaving it up to the last chance is fucking ballsy man. they have PLANS to gut you

i'm stumbling around this game ass backwards screaming at everyone because they all want me gone

the wild card is more predictable in the sense that i just have to try to survive each vote. your enemies already have your funeral planned out. who's the bigger threat to you?

AUSTIN:
If you're just trying to survive each vote, then you're a danger to me because you'll gut me if its convenient. Certain people may target me, but if more people are definitvely on my side, that won't matter. Look, you've shown you want to be in this game desperately. Just give me a fucking name and I'll consider it, but I'm not giving any promises. I assume I'm acting relatively rational right now, so don't give me more vague strategy you know I disagree with.

KATIE:
fuck no

the second i give you a name you'll go running to them and get me sure-fire kicked out

i'm not fucking dumb

AUSTIN:
Yeah, totally. I could also show anyone this whole conversation and get you kicked out for being hostile, but have I done that yet? No.

Hostile in a game sense, not an actual sense, mind you.

KATIE:
uhm if people would actually kick me out for being hostile then they're dumb as shit

what's a survivor game without fighting?

AUSTIN:
Peaceful. Serene. Quiet. All very nice adjectives, mind you. And its not hostile per say, but it a willingness to scrap for your life, which is seen as dangerous.

KATIE:
:eyes it's bullshit is what it is

you'd like this game to go smoothly with no problems for your win, but spoiler alert that's never gonna happen

so you should probably hop on a crazy train or just go straight to the jury

AUSTIN:
Hey, if I go out at 6, my hats off to you, Katie. But if you just want to blow up at me and not give a viable alternative, then feel free to do that, just know that I won't be buying your stock.

KATIE:
what fucking ever loser

AUSTIN:

Try to be reasonable about something, and all ya' get is vitriol. You did you're best Austin, ya' did you're best.

KATIE:
you're not being reasonable though

you're not seeing my side AT ALL

AUSTIN:
YES, YES I AM! I said clerly that I understand that you feel you're not a threat, I gave you my reasoning, you countered, I re-countered, and you told me to fuck off. Please, explain your side to me, you can say however much you want and I won't comment until you say I can.

KATIE:
but you'll just say something asinine like WILD CARDS ARE THREATS (even if they can't win challenges, have no allies, and can't win a jury vote alol) or EVEN NUMBERS YOU CAN'T MAKE MOVES

like i can't use logical reasoning because you have none

AUSTIN:
Who says you're incabable of winning challenges? Or that if you are a goat, you take up a spot in the finals that keeps one other person, possibly me, out of the FTC? If this was just you blowing up at me, congratulations, mission succesfull, have a nice day. If you want to make something out of this, I'm almost always on, and I'm up for suggestions.

KATIE:
well yeah yelling at you was the fun part. but the important part is the wake-up call you aren't getting YOU ARE SIXTH PLACE UNLESS YOU SHAKE SHIT UP

AUSTIN:
Shit will be shaken up. The fact that its not this round is irrelevant. Who do you think's going home 7? Jay?

[katiecollins]

So yeah, after the Todd tribal council Kass came up to me and told me flat out that Austin wants me gone in 8th place. Austin is apparently afraid of me in this game? FOR WHAT REASON?!?! Austin you have seen NOTHING yet. I'LL TEACH YOU TO FEAR KATIE FUCKING COLLINS. So yeah once Kass told me about Austin talking mad shit about me, I decided to stir the pot as hard as fucking possible in an attempt to screw Austin over. He can try to bring me down, but if he takes me down he's going down with me.

So basically I just got up in Austin's face asking him why he is trying to vote me out and why he's so stupid for not taking out the real threats. He kept insisting that KATIE and JAY were his biggest threats because we're wild cards, but it's hilarious because we've been so fucking useless in this game. We're like dead weight. But yeah he kept going ON and ON about how he knows strategy from RHAP (lmfao that's just sad) and he knows exactly what he's doing. He thinks he's being clever by shooting me down with logical answers, but that's because he was under the impression that I was trying to get him to vote with me. In reality, I was just screwing him over with other people.

[katiecollins]

I fucked him over with his alliance because he just revealed his hand way too early by aggressively targeting me and proving that he's got a suballiance that he expects to keep him to the end. Little does he know, I revealed all of his little secrets to Kass and Brian after the fight. Apparently from what they said, Austin even came up to them to pick a fight and make sure they were still voting for Katie. HAHA it's HILARIOUS that he played right into my hand. Now Brian and Kass think he's a mental patient who can't be trusted and they want to blindside him at the next vote.

So in short, you don't fuck with KATIE COLLINS because she will mercilessly slice your throat without thinking. The second I heard Austin was gunning for me next, I went up to him and picked a huge fight and trolled him into blowing up his game. Almost everyone else in the game will think I was just being a hothead and it wasn't strategic, so they'll continue to underestimate me. This will solidify my bonds with Kass and Brian, and Austin will go home with votes from myself, Brian, Candice, and Kass's double votes. I'm praying to GOD this plan goes off without a hitch because it would be the tastiest slice of karmic pie ever baked. AUSTIN I JUST CHECKED THE OVEN AND YOUR GOOSE IS COOKED BITCH. WATCH YOUR BACK.

[katiecollins]

In spite of all the drama surrounding myself and Austin this week and my brilliant plan to boot his ass, I'm not going to take any chances with my fate in this game. I know that at least two people (Austin and Yul) would like to vote me out tonight, and that is 2 too many for me to feel comfortable. I mean yeah I'm a crazy bitch who will go insane on you for trying to vote me out, but I'm not stupid. So at this immunity challenge I'm going to put in more effort than I have at any of the other ones. I'll probably still lose because I suck at competitions, but my god I will try. And honestly I don't even need to win to be satisfied. It will be pleasure enough to beat Austin at a challenge because I could LAUGH IN HIS FACE.

Right now, it just feels so great to be shedding my skin in this game so that I can become the serpent I was meant to be. I've been lying low just trying to barely hang on, but that shit stops here. Katie Collins will bow to no one anymore. I am going to break out of my shell and play this game like the BOSS BITCH that I am. I dare anyone to try and get in my way. Anybody who attempts to oust me will get a swift kick in the balls. Austin's about to learn the most important lesson of Survivor Warriors: Greece... DON'T FUCK WITH KATIE COLLINS *smirk*

[katiecollins]

Okay I'm done being a massive bitch in confessionals I swear (for now). I just felt it was time for me to get the breakout episode I truly deserve

[katiecollins]

Right before the challenge started, Brian came up to me and Kass and said that the vote was being changed from Austin to Yul. UNDER WHOSE AUTHORITY? YOURS? It's a stupid fucking plan. Once Austin sees that Yul is gone and he's not in control, he'll use the idol next round and make it a hell of a lot harder for us to vote him out. He would probably idol ME out in the process. It's dumb and non-sensical and I have NO CLUE why Brian would be this stupid... Unless she's a dirty-ass snake who's got other plans. He's going to have to pick a side and he better fucking choose it fast. Obviously I want it to be mine, but if he leaves us hanging and fucks us over, I'll chop his balls off and feed them to the nearest rodent. Like this guy has been pledging loyalty to us all game, so it's time to back that up with actions. I definitely need to keep a close eye on Brian because he's not as trustworthy as Kass thinks.

[katiecollins]

At the challenge, I FUCKING LOST IN THE SECOND LAST ROUND The worst part is that if I had actually made the final round, I would have beaten Yul and LJ in a breeze. This is devastating to be honest. I really fought hard for that immunity because I know that I needed it. Now, I'm definitely getting at least 3 votes at this tribal council. Now my only play is to stick with the Kass/Brian/Candice alliance and hope that Brian won't flip and fuck me over. I don't even think there's a great chance at this, but as long as there's a sliver of hope I will just keep drilling Brian with the facts until he understands how crucial this vote is. We can flush Austin's idol and flip the script in one quick move. If Brian doesn't vote with us, then he's a DUNCE. and a SNITCH. and you know what happens to snitches? THEY GET STITCHES. So basically if Brian screws me over I will raise hell in the jury house and make SURE he can't win.

Also, the fact that Yul won the challenge is basically a sign from God to me that Austin MUST BE ELIMINATED NOW. Brian's been pushing for Yul to be the target, while I've been pushing for Austin to be the target. The fact that Yul won immunity means that GOD WANTS THIS. GOD WANTS AUSTIN GONE. AS LONG AS I HAVE BLOOD PUMPING THROUGH MY VEINS, I WILL SEE AUSTIN ELIMINATED FROM THIS GAME. IT IS MY ONE TRUE GOAL AND I ~WILL~ SUCCEED BET ON THAT. BRIAN IF YOU FUCK THIS UP PACK YOUR BAGS BITCH.

*fanning myself* Oooh gurl I'm getting heated. This has been an emotionally abusive round for me, so I need to take a breather before Tribal and hope against hope that I will be here for the next one. All I know is that I'm not out of it yet and since this is the game of Survivor, anything can happen.

[katiecollins]

~CONFESSIONALS FOR ROUND 10~

Last night at Tribal Council, My plan worked and somehow everything went off without a hitch. Kass used her double vote to save my ass, and Austin went home with 5 votes in what was a COMPLETE blindside. I got 4 votes from these stupid bitches, but I'M STILL HERE! These people think they can get rid of me? They've got another thing coming for sure. As for Austin, I expected him to be totally angry and bitter and throw a hissy fit after the votes were revealed. However, he only got angry with his former allies and not with me at all. He even called me out by saying that this was actually a good move for me. I don't even know how I avoided his wrath, but it's so hilarious that I did haha.

Based on nothing but great timing and incredible luck, I've stumble-fucked my way into a great position in the Final 7 right now. It feels so good considering I expected to go home back when I was switched to that shit-ass tribe Hades, but I've more than proved my staying power. Week in and week out in this game, I'm starting to become more confident in my abilities to play this game and push the boundaries of my strategy. People could say that I was a useless floater earlier in the game, but it's far from the truth now. I'm planning on snatching up as much power as I possibly can and I'm never letting go. There are 6 obstacles standing in the way of my crowning moment, so I need to start planning their demises. This is a kill or be killed game, and I'm a MOTHERFUCKING MASTER ASSASSIN. 

[katiecollins]

For the immunity challenge, we had to answer a Questionnaire based on trivial things from our lives in the outside world. There was stuff about our name, our color, and other inane bullshit I don't care about. Honestly, I find this challenge to be offensive and rigged. I was never informed that I should listen to the other castaways and engage in small talk. I would rather just not talk to these people at all, so I find it sickening that this challenge rewards people who put effort into their social game.

So anyways, the challenge was uneventful since MISS POPULAR QUEEN BEE Kass won in a landslide. I'm not surprised one bit that she knew every trivial detail about every boring player's life. She just has a knack for that kind of social game and it's clear how much effort she puts in to be such a savvy social player. There's a reason she's been involved in every major blindside and shake-up in this game while I've been clutching the rails holding on for dear life. Kass is definitely a social and challenge threat, and is a potential winner in the coming rounds. I wouldn't be surprised at her winning in a landslide if she made it to the end. She really is just that good.
