Aw boo, unfortunately Yau left. Even though there were good reasons for both Alecia and Yau-Man to leave, I personally liked Yau better since HE WOUDL A CTUALLY TALK TO ME. Alecia: mess. We had a great convo in the beginning of the game, and then what happened? She stopped talking to me and only answered in 1-3 word sentences. Gee, thanks for the initial connection Alecia. GAWD.
Now I'm worried that this puts power into the hands of Malcolm and Amanda, who seemed to lead Yau's vote off. It seemed like Natalie and Morgan simply followed the vote because it was convenient to them. Keith, I'm not sure about yet. I love him, but I don't know where his head is strategically at. He may just be very good at conversing with everyone like he is with me. With Jeff, I know he is close to Malcolm so I just hope our "Icons Only" alliance is a higher priority than him. I just imagine that he voted for Yau simply because it kept him on the good side of both his alliances. Fortunately, there are people that feel threatened by them(Malmanda) like our 5 person alliance and Liz. She could make a good swing vote with possibly Keith and Morgan to make sure Alecia or someone not aligned with me goes next. These targets would ideally be: Malcolm or Alecia. Malcolm really only saw me as a "maybe" vote the entire time, and I wouldn't be surprised if he actually doesn't have any long term plans set up for me in his game plan. That's why he NEEDS TO GO.
I did end up making a huge mistake by telling Keith and Amanda what box I picked after the results were revealed, which gave them the knowledge that I had a double vote. I told Amanda that I could use it to help us out just in case, so hopefully she doesn't end up feeling threatened by that. I trust Keith enough that he wouldn't actually mess up my game simply because of that double vote. On the other hand, that just might be naive.
