So apparently I was one episode behind. I thought so. Somebody should have stopped me from progressing down that path. Ha, oh well. I shall be on track now. Here are the questions/answers for this round:
What do you think of Jacobs recent departure? DUMB MOVE BY THE DRAGONZ! THEY'RE A PRETTY PATHETIC THREESOME WITHOUT HIM!
How do you feel about having made the jury stage of the game? I'M BASICALLY ECSTATIC. SERIOUSLY, I FINALLY MADE A JURY. HOPEFULLY THOUGH, I CAN GO FAR BEYOND 'JUST' THE JURY...
Who do you want to see voted out next? JP OR SKYLAR. THEY ARE ONE IN THE SAME.
Who do you trust the most? RICH. NOBODY ELSE COMES CLOSE.
Who do you trust the least? HAVE I MENTIONED 'SHIFTY CHELSEA' BEFORE...?
What do you think of such a huge difference in number of castaways on each tribe? I THINK IT'S PRETTY COOL ACTUALLY. THANK GOODNESS I'M NOT ON THE OTHER SIDE ANYMORE!
What twists do you think are up ahead? SOMETHING FUNKY WITH THE FINAL TRIBAL COUNCIL AND JURY SIZE, OBVIOUSLY.
When do you expect a merge to occur? NEXT ROUND! IT BETTER!

richardyul: Hey onetz53: hey richardyul: What's up? onetz53: nothin much, just woke up richardyul: Yeah, same here. onetz53: so I just saw that we crushed the Dragonz yet again richardyul: Yeah, I'm glad. onetz53: did Deighton or somebody ever talk to you about possibly banishing Chelsea instead of kidnapping one of them? richardyul: Yes... richardyul: I'm not a big fan of that idea. onetz53: yeah I definitely saw it as slightly risky richardyul: I would rather kidnap Zoe. onetz53: lol, I was about to say the same thing onetz53: I guess the other 2 then would do a challenge for their tc richardyul: Yeah...I would rather force either JP or Skylar out; they're both strong. onetz53: indeed onetz53: I guess with the Chelsea thing, some people may still be upset over the 'questionable' circumstances she was involved in with that one challenge and also people think she might have the idol and this would flush it out if she did, so it would be like a win-win in that sense for them onetz53: so I dunno, I gotta think about it a little while longer richardyul: If it helps you with your decision Chelsea told me that she didn't get the idol awhile ago...she got a power to gain an advantage in an immunity challenge. richardyul: She told me that at a time where it wouldn't make any sense to lie to me.\ onetz53: oh, one of those 'consolation' prize things? onetz53: I was wondering what those were about richardyul: Yeah onetz53: do you know how many people were clamoring for this Chelsea thing? onetz53: when Deighton told me about it, he just said 'some people' were talking about it richardyul: Deighton won't tell me. onetz53: lol, ok onetz53: but yeah, obviously the safer move is to kidnap Zoe richardyul: I dunno if Deighton's bluffing just to get more people to vote with him. onetz53: it's possible onetz53: does he not like Chelsea I guess? richardyul: He very strongly dislikes Chelsea. onetz53: lol, I still don't get how people dislike and hate other people in this game onetz53: ha, ah well onetz53: even with Matt, I don't hate or dislike the guy onetz53: he just cracks me up richardyul: Lol richardyul: Yeah, I don't hate Matt either. richardyul: Anyway, strategically, I can't make sense of banishing Chelsea...I like Deighton, but I'm not just gonna go along with his plan because he doesn't like Chelsea. onetz53: are you thinking ahead of what all we might do post-merge? richardyul: Lol, yeah, of course. onetz53: it's going to be messy for me onetz53: =/ richardyul: Aw, how so? onetz53: just b/c of the whole former Nirvana thing and jury members coming out of it onetz53: but I don't ever talk to Donna or Sammy, so maybe it won't be so bad richardyul: What do you think we should do after the merge? onetz53: lol, I have no clue onetz53: talking to Matt, he wants to take out the remaining Dragonz first and then all you Fu Mals next richardyul: I think we should go along with taking out the Dragonezes. onetz53: yeah and figure out what's next after that richardyul: Yeah. richardyul: Alright, I'll bbs soon...breakfast.

Decisions, decisions. Everywhere I turn, they haunt me with their potential paths. Turns out we crushed "Fu Mal" in both challenges. Surprise, surprise. That's what they get for voting Jacob out (dumb move guys!). Now the interesting part: Deighton wants us all to banish Chelsea over there! I'm legitimately torn. The safe thing to do is obviously to just kidnap Zoe and let JP/Skylar duke it out at their tc. But by banishing Chelsea....
Well, it's a risk, but the eventual benefits could far outweigh the negatives.
Could.
If Chelsea has the idol, it would then get flushed out when everyone votes for her. Even if she doesn't have it though, the game would lose its shiftiest and most questionable player. So from a "moral" standpoint, it would be a plus. But Rich wouldn't like this move. Perhaps because then more people would suspect HIM to have the idol. I've been suspecting him to have it this whole time. I like the guy, but if he has the idol, he simply has way too much power in this game. I don't wanna lose to him in the end, no matter how much I trust him.
I hope I don't have to stab him...=/
As a merge dawns, I definitely need to find the time to talk to Donna and Sammy at some point...I'm not completely ruling out a return to Original Nirvana...It's looking more tempting as I see that all the Fu Mal's don't like each other and furthermore, don't wanna work together! Deighton hates Chelsea, Rich dislikes Conny or something, etc. What's gonna happen if it comes down to the 4 of them and the 4 of the former Nirvanas? I don't know.
One grand decision to figure out before the others follow suit.

onetz53: Sammy! I've never spoken with you RainbowBaby227: You have once RainbowBaby227: lol RainbowBaby227: HI Tom! onetz53: oh have I? onetz53: lol oh well RainbowBaby227: lol onetz53: are you aware of what's going on with this whole red rover thing we've got going on? RainbowBaby227: Chelsea's attempting to inform me lol onetz53: haha, yeah I still don't know what's going on RainbowBaby227: Well RainbowBaby227: according to Chelsea RainbowBaby227: Matt, Deighton and Donna are voting to banish her to Fu Mal RainbowBaby227: and she's trying to get the others to banish Matt RainbowBaby227: Matt told me he wanted me to banish Conny onetz53: there's also a sliver of Conny in there onetz53: lol, ha yeah onetz53: basically, Matt has been at the center of all the fun today RainbowBaby227: and me, personally... I wanted to kidnap JP to make Skylar and Zoe duke it out lol onetz53: me too! onetz53: it's much simpler! RainbowBaby227: I know onetz53: we still have like 30 minutes but more people want to banish than kidnap RainbowBaby227: I know onetz53: I know you've been a tribe with him the whole game, but are you close or tight with Matt at all? because if we banish anybody I would prefer it to be him and not Conny or Chelsea since I feel like he started all of this RainbowBaby227: I know But if I help get rid of Matt.. that hurts Nirvana's game.. and it hurts my game, too. onetz53: yeah, I hear ya RainbowBaby227: And, in effect, that hurts yours, too, cuz Matt's trying to keep you with Nirvana - though I've heard you've said you aren't all that much for alliances lol onetz53: where did you hear that? onetz53: lol I enjoy 'alliances' that aren't forced onetz53: if that makes sense RainbowBaby227: It does - definitely. onetz53: no offense to Matt, but the second I come over to this tribe he's like "you're gonna be in an alliance with me, Sammy and Donna" onetz53: I like you and Donna, but I dunno he just seems a little too out there for me RainbowBaby227: And according to Rich... Matt offered Rich a Final 3 with him and Donna - and said he hates me. but I don't believe that. onetz53: I wouldn't say 'hate,' but he did tell me that he doesn't particularly like you RainbowBaby227: I don't understand why. onetz53: and from everyone I've talked to today, he has promised multiple 'final whatever' deals RainbowBaby227: ... Probably because he's "running the game" and I don't fall down and listen to everything he says. onetz53: yeah, I mean he's just too controlling for me RainbowBaby227: very much so... but in all honesty, I can't get rid of him now onetz53: yeah I hear ya onetz53: but whatever happens, I just hope that this team can just stick together through the merge and not freak out, you know? RainbowBaby227: and especially since... if we do - that'll make us more targetted... and if we keep him - people will want to keep taking him out and taking him out. RainbowBaby227: Yeah. onetz53: very true onetz53: well hey it was good to talk to you, I gotta run RainbowBaby227: definitely! Alrighty adios! onetz53: cya!

onetz53: hey Donna DragonLdy640: hi onetz53: are you aware of the psycho madness regarding the red rover vote? onetz53: lol DragonLdy640: no DragonLdy640: i was away DragonLdy640: whats happening? onetz53: just that at first I thought everyone would simply want to kidnap Zoe or somebody over there but then all of a sudden people want to banish Conny, Matt, or Chelsea onetz53: have you voted for it already? DragonLdy640: i could change it DragonLdy640: i think onetz53: yeah I don't know if you can or not DragonLdy640: i could try DragonLdy640: what are you doing? onetz53: I really wanted to kidnap Zoe originally onetz53: but nobody wants to do that DragonLdy640: i have no idea what to do onetz53: I think most people are leaning towards banishing Matt since he went psycho today DragonLdy640: how? onetz53: he just kept promising final-whatever deals to everyone if they would vote to banish Conny (why? I have no clue) DragonLdy640: wow DragonLdy640: richard told me that too onetz53: and I think there are some "banish Chelsea" votes floating around too onetz53: bottom line, if we can't kidnap somebody which I'm pretty sure we can't, I'd like to banish Matt just to keep our team as united as possible DragonLdy640: true onetz53: ha, should be interesting to see the results of this one onetz53: I've gotta run onetz53: but ttyl!

Today was very pleasant. I walked along the shore, listened to the Chinese birds singing, and even spotted a stray panda cub nibbling at a stalk of bamboo. All very heart-warming things. I then returned to camp...
Where everything exploded! Seriously, I checked in at 1230 this afternoon to see what was up and it all looked like a surefire thing that Zoe would be joining our tribe. Ha! I come back an hour later and get talked to by just about everyone in the game! Banish this person, no banish that person, no no no banish THIS person. It was psycho madness. I couldn't believe it.
Before all the insanity ensued, I actually was seriously thinking about joining up with Matt and the 'ol Nirvana gang at some point. But after hearing all he said and how he acted, it was pretty much a no-brainer to banish him and, in effect, vote him out of this game. I am indeed worried that this tribe is no longer 'united' but now splintered. And the reason that worries me is because a merge is most certainly on the horizon. I could very quickly find myself in the minority if I can't keep Donna and Sammy on my side.
I don't wanna merge. Not yet. I like my position just on this tribe. Personally, I actually think that all this merge talk might all be a set-up. I mean, already a post set up by the host to start discussing the merged tribe name? And Matt still hasn't been voted out yet? I dunno, I might be dead wrong, but I might be willing to bet that the merge doesn't come along for another vote or two.
We shall see. Bring on the game.
