Episode 6

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

I swear no one is ever on AIM anymore. I want to give them a big intercontinental kick that says HELLO COME TALK TO ME!

I just realised I have not cast a vote in 5 rounds of this game. What a weird feeling. Good, but weird. In other new, I can smell the jury, I know it's a coming soon. Excitement.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

I am logging in from my office pc, cos I am bored, and don't want to work. Blerg. Onca again a strategy thread with zero in it from sherea, or ian. can u please just kill ian host? pretty please? His absence will bring such joy to my heart!

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, they voted out Dolly




I need to find a new final 2 buddy, options, BJ, who already thinks I am, Rocky and burton. meh, i dont know. Maybe rocky?

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

Important PM's. First, sent by me to Burton and Rocky:

Awwww, we've lost dolly. we are going to need to try gain numbers if we merge, Burton who do u think might flip on that side? otherwise, hopefully i can persuade BJ and sherea to vote with us, if need be.

Burton's response:

Maybe Rodger and Brett, but I think they're pretty solid with their old tribe, since Rodger's main problem was us (me and Dolly) siding with you guys, so it might be easier getting BJ and Sherea to vote with us


Rocky's response:

Hey Steph.

Yeah guy, I saw Dolly was voted out. I was happy she and Burton were able to survive the first vote but it's not surprising they couldnt survive both.

I really think we are going to merge now so anything could happen. We have such a big numbers advantage that I am worried BJ will try and vote out one of the bigger threats like you or me. I don't think he would do it the first TC but we should be careful before the numbers get too small for us to stop him if he does come at us.

Me to rocky:

Re: (No Subject)
« Message sent Today at 8:41pm »
yeah i agree. he seems pretty loyal to me tho, so I will try to keep an eye on me. It's ironic, he totally thought he was running the show in the beginning of the game lol. I think we will need to try get as many of the original tenrec members out as possible at first, but if BJ makes any moves against us, we'll need to crush him.

Me to Burton:


Re: (No Subject)
« Message sent Today at 8:47pm »
yeah i think we should prob vote along old tribal lines for the first few at least, make sure we have the numbers. u still happy to be teamed with me and rocky?

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

OMG this challenge, okay, I am going to do it a bit later when I have some time, eugh, I am so bad at concentrating sometimes! And if my internet screws with me, I will kill it. YAY for merge, YAY for original Babkoto having majority, YAY for voting people out!

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

I know I have been on about this a lot, but I am so pissed that Ian has disappeared. Without Ian, according to old tribal lines we have me, BJ, Sherea, Rocky and burton, vs brett, rodger, todd and erik. That means.....one person in our tribe switches, we are screwed. I need to seriously keep abreast of what is going on, I really need to try to win immunity, in case someone tries to make a big move to switch and get me out. Which would be dumb, cos I was serious about taking burton and rocky far with me, and BJ as far as I can until I fear he has become a threat. I would feel a lot safer with a bigger majority. At least I have the Idol.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

I hope I did the right thing stepping off when I did, I wanted that prize, and I have no real reason to feel insecure. But maybe that's why I am worried, I am scared of a blindside and going home with the idol in my pocket. I know I am a threat cause of challenges, but so are other people. All I can do is hope that if someone tries to target me I'll be told, and if push comes to shove I can then play the idol.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

just to clear things up, Carlos I hate you. lol. These power rewards have the potential to screw me royally. I am seriously considering playing the idol, even if just to make sure I am fine. I have played this game too hard to get voted out now. The problem is, if everyone stays loyal, ie. sherea, bj, burton, and rocky, then regardless of powers (cos other original tribe has 3 doubles, 2 nulls, and so do we), we will have majority, cos everything should cancel each other out. unless ppl are trying to be sneaky, and keep powers til later, but i think this is a vital TC, the most vital one so far.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

Fuck my life:

(6:05:51 AM) Me: hey!

(6:07:43 AM) Me: so we're still technically partners in crime
(6:08:26 AM) Bobby Jon: woot
(6:08:30 AM) Bobby Jon: rocky thought of a good idea
(6:08:43 AM) Bobby Jon: actually one sec, lemme look at the site
(6:09:11 AM) Me: kk
(6:09:25 AM) Me: cos i was thinking we try to find out who they are targetting
(6:09:43 AM) Me: and feed them the info we are going for someone who we arent actually going for
(6:10:05 AM) Me: plus if necessary i can play my vote nullifier to ensure we have majority, i dont mind
(6:10:53 AM) Bobby Jon: heres the thing
(6:11:02 AM) Bobby Jon: rocky was suggest we null all there asses
(6:11:24 AM) Bobby Jon: todd/burton we don't have to necessarily null though because they have no double voting powers or anything
(6:11:29 AM) Bobby Jon: erik we def have to null, rodger,
(6:11:31 AM) Bobby Jon: brett
(6:12:12 AM) Bobby Jon: me u rocky and sherea got stuff
(6:12:17 AM) Bobby Jon: im not sure if sherea got the null tho
(6:12:28 AM) Me: hmmm, i think we prob do need to null them all
(6:12:34 AM) Me: cos otherwise we mite be screwed
(6:12:46 AM) Bobby Jon: ok good thinking
(6:12:47 AM) Bobby Jon: BUT
(6:12:51 AM) Bobby Jon: did sherea get the null ?
(6:13:22 AM) Me: lemme go look
(6:13:24 AM) Me: i dont think so
(6:14:05 AM) Me: she has a double vote
(6:14:09 AM) Me: thats all
(6:14:20 AM) Bobby Jon: damn
(6:14:26 AM) Bobby Jon: so me u rocky
(6:14:32 AM) Bobby Jon: we have to null erik 100%
(6:14:45 AM) Bobby Jon: rodger 100% (we target him)
(6:14:53 AM) Bobby Jon: and Brett i think
(6:15:16 AM) Bobby Jon: we leave todd/burton, I hit up Burton and told him they will be attacking us so he should vote with us, idk if that will work tho
(6:15:25 AM) Me: rodger and brett have nullifiers and double votes
(6:15:50 AM) Bobby Jon: right so they get 2 of us, 2 of us are still open
(6:15:52 AM) Me: yeah i will plead with burton to, get him to see he needs to go with us, we're the majority
(6:16:01 AM) Bobby Jon: so lets say if we leave todd burton open
(6:16:08 AM) Bobby Jon: its me u sherea and rocky
(6:16:15 AM) Bobby Jon: they will def null sherea cuz shes double vote
(6:16:27 AM) Me: rocky and i also have double votes
(6:16:35 AM) Bobby Jon: u can only use one thing i think
(6:17:24 AM) Bobby Jon: if us 4 use double votes, thats 8 votes right
(6:17:33 AM) Bobby Jon: no wait
(6:17:35 AM) Bobby Jon: scratch that
(6:17:37 AM) Bobby Jon: nulls
(6:17:43 AM) Bobby Jon: they can null us....we gotta null them
(6:18:14 AM) Bobby Jon: Bobby Jon Drinkard, Brett Clouser, Burton Roberts, Erik Huffman, James "Rocky" Reid, Rodger Bingham, Sherea Lloyd, Stephenie LaGrossa, Todd Herzog,
(6:18:16 AM) Bobby Jon: thats the list
(6:18:25 AM) Bobby Jon: our side is me, rocky, sherea and u
(6:18:34 AM) Bobby Jon: they have brett, burton, erik, rodger and todd lets say
(6:18:38 AM) Me: when did rocky speak to u? u sure he's with us?
(6:18:41 AM) Bobby Jon: 4-5 them
(6:18:49 AM) Bobby Jon: hes with us 100% it was his idea to null all of them
(6:18:53 AM) Me: okay
(6:18:57 AM) Me: did he pm u that?
(6:18:59 AM) Bobby Jon: so we got 4 them 5
(6:19:00 AM) Bobby Jon: no AIM
(6:19:08 AM) Me: ah ok sorry i am slow lol
(6:19:27 AM) Bobby Jon: so if we null erik, rodger and brett...only todd/burton can vote
(6:19:35 AM) Bobby Jon: now with us 4 they only have two nulls correct?
(6:19:47 AM) Me: yes
(6:19:56 AM) Bobby Jon: so worse case scenario its 2-2
(6:20:04 AM) Bobby Jon: unless we get burton todd to swing
(6:20:35 AM) Bobby Jon: OR hit up todd and tell him to vote someone and tell Burton to vote someone else
(6:20:41 AM) Bobby Jon: then its 2-1-1
(6:21:26 AM) Me: what if we use nullifiers and souble votes
(6:21:33 AM) Me: cos i dont see anything saying we canty
(6:22:33 AM) Bobby Jon: damn carlos isnt on to ask him
(6:22:51 AM) Me: well if he hasnt posted we cant, lets presume we can
(6:22:57 AM) Me: then we get majority for sure
(6:23:13 AM) Me: sigh i kind of wish i had stayed on to try for immunity lol, this suspense is killing
(6:23:57 AM) Bobby Jon: lol
(6:24:02 AM) Bobby Jon: its still suspensful for me to
(6:24:09 AM) Bobby Jon: if we lose rocky/sherea we are in bad shape
(6:24:17 AM) Bobby Jon: ian was a fuckin waste
(6:24:19 AM) Me: but if i get lost I'll be in bad shape
(6:24:21 AM) Me:
(6:24:25 AM) Me: yeah
(6:24:29 AM) Me: ian was terrible
(6:24:34 AM) Bobby Jon: if ur out i wont be too far behind
(6:31:50 AM) Me: so lets finalise our plan
(6:32:07 AM) Bobby Jon: we're fucked
(6:32:09 AM) Bobby Jon: i get nothing
(6:32:16 AM) Bobby Jon: only immunity
(6:32:20 AM) Bobby Jon: thats what the thing says
(6:32:21 AM) Bobby Jon: i think
(6:33:05 AM) Me: why does that mean we're fucked?
(6:33:14 AM) Me: we still have sherea, mine and rocky's prizes
(6:33:30 AM) Bobby Jon: but sherea has no null
(6:33:33 AM) Bobby Jon: we can only null 2 of them
(6:33:35 AM) Bobby Jon: erik and rodger
(6:33:43 AM) Bobby Jon: that leaves burton, brett and todd out
(6:33:53 AM) Bobby Jon: sherea will get nulled and prolly me
(6:33:56 AM) Bobby Jon: 3-2
(6:34:13 AM) Bobby Jon: burton/brett/todd vs. rocky/you
(6:37:30 AM) Me: but rocky and i have double votes
(6:37:39 AM) Me: they will prob null ppl with double votes
(6:40:01 AM) Me: i wonder if the nullifier blocks one or both votes
(6:40:27 AM) Bobby Jon: well they have one and we have
(6:41:56 AM) Bobby Jon: im done with rocky
(6:42:00 AM) Bobby Jon: hes accusing me of being selfish
(6:42:02 AM) Bobby Jon: and winning immunity
(6:42:19 AM) Me: no i mean if they cast a nullifier on someone playing a double vote will it block both those i wonder
(6:42:25 AM) Me: we need him BJ, just play nice

(6:46:30 AM) Bobby Jon: no
(6:46:35 AM) Bobby Jon: impossible

(6:52:09 AM) Me: so we want to target rodger right? so we need all of us to vote rodger, and then we need to use our vote nullifiers on them. we have two vote nullifiers right?
(6:52:18 AM) Bobby Jon: right
(6:52:24 AM) Me: i pmd burton, he seems to be leaning towards voting with us

(6:32:13 AM) Rocky: idk but bj be pissing me off
(6:32:57 AM) Rocky: i dont talk to the guy very often so it would be nice if he didnt feed me with bullshit while i did lol
(6:33:24 AM) Me: lol whats he saying?
(6:33:53 AM) Rocky: nonesense
(6:34:38 AM) Rocky: pretending he didnt know that going for immunity meant he didnt get vote nulls or stuff and then pretended he did get those things, then pretended he just realized he didnt
(6:34:39 AM) Rocky: lol
(6:35:05 AM) Rocky: this whole thing is lame. if i get voted out so much the better lol
(6:37:50 AM) Me: um, i am not sure thats pretending
(6:37:59 AM) Me: BJ is not the sharpest tool in the shed sometimes
(6:38:04 AM) Me: lol
(6:38:07 AM) Me: altho he prob does
(6:38:14 AM) Me: i dont know, he can be trying to talk to
(6:38:32 AM) Me: okay we need to formulate a plan
(6:39:00 AM) Rocky: well i can tell you that your's and mine votes will be blocked
(6:39:05 AM) Rocky: so no point adding to them
(6:39:12 AM) Rocky: unless we can still use 1 if 1 is blocked
(6:39:50 AM) Me: yeah i wonder if it blocks both our votes or just one
(6:40:17 AM) Rocky: somethign we should prob clarify
(6:40:29 AM) Rocky: do we even have enough people on board anyhow. you talk to burton?
(6:42:36 AM) Me: yeah burton said he is with us
(6:43:08 AM) Me: can u and BJ try play nice just until this tribal is over, we need to work together to maintain majority
(6:43:53 AM) Rocky: no probably not. im not planning on voting him out. but if he acts like a dumb-ass i will tell him so
(6:45:33 AM) Me: lol
(6:45:48 AM) Me: did u say to him him, me ian and sherea had an alliance from day one?
(6:47:41 AM) Rocky: yeah. although without ian i suppose he needs to do some adjustments
(6:49:46 AM) Me: but dude, u are putting me in a screwed position. how is he going to think u know about that?
(6:50:02 AM) Rocky: cause he pretty much told me so before i ever talked to you lol
(6:50:08 AM) Me: lol
(6:50:15 AM) Me: well he is now going on WHO TOLD ROCKY etc
(6:50:26 AM) Me: BJ can be a loose cannon, he needs to be placated generally
(6:50:37 AM) Rocky: Rocky ain't the man for that lol
(6:50:40 AM) Me: lol
(6:50:44 AM) Me: just try
(6:50:49 AM) Me: for the sake of majority and this vote
(6:50:52 AM) Rocky: thats like tellin' me to be nice to Anthony
(6:51:36 AM) Me: burton says he is trying to get them to go for sherea
(6:51:39 AM) Me: who is anthony?
(6:52:52 AM) Rocky: lol from the real Fiji
(6:53:04 AM) Me: ohhhhh
(6:59:08 AM) Me: okay so they have 3 double votes and two nullifiers, and so do we
(6:59:11 AM) Rocky: i wonder if we can give our powers away
(6:59:14 AM) Me: so if burton votes with us
(6:59:19 AM) Me: we should have majority
(6:59:28 AM) Me: ugh, this is so nerve wracking
(6:59:52 AM) Rocky: whether or not the 2nd vote can be nulled is important
(6:59:57 AM) Rocky: not just for us but what they will do
(7:00:13 AM) Rocky: if they know both votes will be nulled i doubt they would use theirs this round
(7:00:22 AM) Rocky: cause they would assume 2 of them will be
(7:00:34 AM) Me: yeah
(7:00:39 AM) Me: so i agree it's important
(7:01:00 AM) Rocky: or
(7:01:02 AM) Rocky: lol
(7:01:13 AM) Rocky: if we really think they are going after sherea
(7:01:16 AM) Rocky: we dont use any
(7:01:25 AM) Me: that might make me wet my pants
(7:01:28 AM) Rocky: just sayin
(7:01:28 AM) Rocky: lol
(7:01:31 AM) Me: and also we will then lose tribal majority
(7:01:35 AM) Me: we need to keep numbers
(7:01:38 AM) Rocky: 4-4
(7:01:43 AM) Rocky: but we would have 6 votes
(7:02:08 AM) Rocky: i only say that cause i dont know sherea lol
(7:02:25 AM) Rocky: but it's something to consider anyhow
(7:03:02 AM) Rocky: if burton votes against us then it matter not what we do with powers
(7:03:15 AM) Me: crap, piss, shit
(7:03:24 AM) Me: lol
(7:03:42 AM) Me: who to trust? it is an enigma
(7:03:53 AM) Rocky: for the sake of argument, if you had the idol it might be a good move to not use any of our powers
(7:04:03 AM) Rocky: u play it and i dont mind being at risk lol
(7:04:11 AM) Rocky: then we get to keep all our goodies
(7:04:50 AM) Rocky: i say that cause i know it's gone and it's wishful thinking that you have it lol
(7:06:01 AM) Rocky: damn its after 1. k i gotta get to bed. pm me if you and beej figure anything out, guy . cheers

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

can rocky and BJ put the rulers away and stop trying to prove who has the bigger for this one tribal council. I mean really, now I am stuck in the middle like a scolding parent. Testosterone....somethng I will never understand. I still dont know wtf I am going to do this vote yet.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

sent this PM to BJ, sherea and rocky:

Okay, so I think we should do this:

I will use double vote on rodger, and vote nullifier on brett.

Sherea pls double vote rodger.

Bobbyjon pls vote Rodger.

Rocky, pls double vote rodger and nullify rodger.

Burton says he will vote rodger with us, so we SHOULD have majority! if one person screws this up, it is likely we will lose our majority. so pls follow this! Is that fine with everyone?

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

i am still thinking of using my idol to be safe tho, i know i am a big target cos of challenges, and cos i got the most rewards.

[Stephenie LaGrossa]

sigh, can tribal just be posted lol, I may wet my pants
