Número Undécimo ronda - 11
Coconut Crapshoot



What a sweet lookin dog.

ALLLRIGHHTTTT let's just say that challenge mentally strained me out on a certain number of levels, so I don't feel like typing a HUGE paragraph. I'm gonna mention briefly what's going on, step back from the computer, and then probably make a video confessional that won't come out until tomorrow, unfortunately. I am going to be very busy tonight (as I have been in GENERAL during the end of the summer, I wasn't at the beginning!!! Where were all the ORGs then??? Shoutout to nicky for actually POSTING one I was looking for a good alias ORG for like a month.)

So essentially I feel like I fucked myself, and maybe Darnell has tried to screw me over? Considering the idol in Liz's picture was the one she apparently used in that tribal (which I never saw because there was no picture) and now I REALLY don't think Liz has or ever had a second idol. Like I didn't even cross reference the date in the screenshot I was just so sure. Anyways, I don't really give a fuck if Darnell is BSing me or not as long as the dude will actually vote Keith. If Keith loses immunity we are voting KEITH, end of story. I don't think Darnell would betray ME over Keith, but I could see him voting out Lindsey instead.

I wish I could actually talk this shit over with Darnell but he hasn't been on in over a day. At least when I'm on he never is. I know he has appeared invis when talking to me before, so that could be it.

I also hate how Liz is NEVER on when I want her to be??? Like the one vote I didn't want to talk to her so as not to give her any ideas with the idol, she is around. But anytime else??? It's crazy how someone in the F5 really never talks to me. I know Lindsey has said she would probably vote Liz over Keith and Darnell, and I get how that would be: Liz has worked her ass off, as Lindsey has said. But at least Keith and Darnell have made a solid relationship with me, and I think I would almost definitely vote for one of them over Liz, unless she pulled some amazing speech out of a hat. I like her as a person but have just had no real connection to her, as I have with a lot of other players, and I honestly think I've improved my social game a lot.

At this point, I feel...pretty okay about my chances of winning? I think if I get to the end with Darnell I can probably beat him, as there is a lot of distaste for Darnell in the Icons, at least probably more distaste than for me. Jeff is a question mark, but I think I can definitely win over Jeff by just speaking heart to heart in my jury response to him.

Keith is an interesting case...I think Keith has worked his fuckin ass off to be here, and I would probably vote him over Darnell in a Darnell-Keith F2. But, I don't think a ton of other people would? Jeff likes him, but Lindsey and Morgan certainly don't love him. Honestly that could be it though, I don't know who would win in that situation but it would probably still be Keith.

There's still a lot of big question marks here, but what's for certain right now is that we need to stop Keith from getting immunity, and hope that it's also Lindsey or I with it. Lindsey doesn't seem like the one that would be very adept at a challenge like this, so I feel like a lot of the weight is on my shoulders. I know I'm a target and while I don't thinkkkkk I would get voted out this round if Keith won immunity, I do think things would look really bad for me if I didn't win immunity next round.

Everything about this vote is so blegh but it is what it is. Even though Liz winning immunity sucks, it shouldn't reallllly matter. This idol she claims to have is a complete bluff, and I don't really see anything happening of it. If any idol is played, it will either be Keith on himself or Darnell on himself. I really doubt Liz has jack shit.

Darnell is still telling me about Keith's ramblings, apparently he wondered if Darnell wanted to vote me out. I don't see this as KEITH wanting to vote me out, but moreso Keith wanting to get on Darnell's good side, do what Darnell wants to do. I know Darnell and Keith have a F2 that will hopefully be broken tonight, thank god. Better yet, I can hope that Keith gets pissed. I sorta wanted to make more F3 and F2 deals in this game but it's honestly just not been on the cards for me. I try not to make promises I can't keep as much as possible, and always play reasonable with how I'm treating people. I think that makes me fairly liked by most, and I that a Malcolm or Taj can respect how I voted them out.

If this vote goes to plan, I will be in the Final Four! holy fuck


If I actually make it to FTC with Darnell at this point, I feel like the votes would be in my favor, but I really have no fuckin clue. I hate this because I feel like I don't know well enough to be 100%, get to the end and win with this guy. I must admit, his endgame has been fairly impressive, and he has sorta saved my ass a few times here. But I feel like the way I put trust into him and how much I saved him indirectly during the middle of the game, doesn't make him as good a player as he is at first made out to be, though I assume the same could be said about me.

The story of this game for me is "I don't know" because it's just been a bunch of decisions that could go either way and at this point, feel like a big roll of the dice. I'm no goat, but Darnell isn't really either, and it's hard seeing my F2 become as capable as he has.

If Keith goes tonight, I am going to work my ass off for immunity. If he doesn't? I'm going to work my ass off for immunity.

[kenhoang]

It's me, isn't it. It's too quiet.

[kenhoang]

LOL holy shit, not my last words after all. I am golden.

[kenhoang]

It would be SUPER nice if Liz put the freakin vote in.

So the fact that I'm going to be in the F4 AGAIN is crazy, and crazier still is the fact that both Darnell (and probably, HOPEFULLY Lindsey) will still be here.


My F3 being intact at F4 just shows that things have gone pretty damn well. With Keith HOPEFULLY gone this round, it means barring no Liz immunity win (which is very possible, though I will try my best to stop it), I will be in the F3 with the two people I intended at the merge.

Liz being unwilling to vote earlier than the 24 hour time just shows how immature she is. I've liked the push Keith and her have made in this game, but something like that just shows how petty she is. If she made it to the Final Tribal I definitely don't think there's anyone here I wouldn't vote for over her.

It's sad to lose Keith, because the one piece of big activity is gone. Lindsey is awesomeee but unless it's late at night (when I've been trying to actually get some sleep before school starts in a week or so), she's usually not around/sorta busy with work. Darnell isn't on a ton and when Liz is on she usually ignores me / I ignore her. I don't know what the deal is, maybe it's just that I've never had a lot of strategic talk with her, but she never really has allowed a relationship to develop, I feel like I've started a large majority of the conversations with her throughout this game, though not many, and even if we never had a huge connection, she never tried to make much of it herself.

My main source of worry in this game right now is definitely whether I should take Darnell or Lindsey to F3, if I do indeed get there with them two and DO win the Final Immunity Challenge. Lindsey seems to be better liked than Darnell from what I've gathered, but Darnell has, at least in my books, played the better game. He does have ZERO votes so far for himself while not having to win immunity, but I think people respect Lindsey more as a person. I really am just a horrible judge on my game, I probably could either beat everyone or no one in this F4 right now. Darnell is still my go-to option: it seems unnecessary to betray his trust, and as far as I know, I have more votes if I'm against him than against Lindsey right now.
