Maybe it's about who I feel is still hiding things from me - and thus who I put more trust in than others.

Ideally, I think it would be great for Dan or David to win this week. Pretty much anyone but Nick for me. And ideally, not someone aligned with me. Time to cut some ties and force some shrewd decisions. Because this game is not survivor, it's not about holding the majority all the time. After last week's bloodbath, it's okay for one of my side to go. If you hold too much of the majority, people start itching about rebellion. When you're being attacked, you regroup together.

wish granted?

Thanks Jules.

You make my world.

And I continue onward with my "stupid loyal non-offensive natalie" game. I'm just itching to break out of my shell - but it's not time yet. Skating by is a valid strategy right now.

So Jen using co-HoH is no surprise. Nomming Keesha was. I am determined in keeping Keesha safe. She will be a tool later. And she needs to be the last one standing from other side. Did not like Keesha up - especially when her negated vote is still in play. Should've been Dan from the start.

I've been out of the loop this week, will be out of the loop next week.

Glad that David won veto and took Keesha off. And glad that they compromised on Dan. That was key. That's what I wanted originally.

Now Nick comes to me and asks me to take out Jase. So the voters this week are Laura, Nick, Brian, Ronnie, Steven, Natalie.

To save Dan - Nick is going to have to get my vote. He's sure not going to get Steven or Ronnie's. At best he can tie - but there's no way that but David and Jen would break it to take out Jase. Unless he forces Laura to use her double vote (which Steven can nullify by the way). It's a risky plan and he hasn't convinced me why to do it. So I'm going to keep saying - I'd rather wait til next week to make a big move. It makes no sense for me to keep Dan - someone who has always rebuffed any of my efforts to align with him. While Jase is someone I might've voted out over Keesha - Not so sure Dan is worth saving for me - except to remain as an attack dog to take out some of my alliance (which seems like will happen from Nick/Brian no matter what).

Yeah, I know Jase top of list and all that. But that was people whose word I trusted. I know Jase is fully invested in s2 alliance. Doesn't necessarily mean he's in my end game plans yet. He could if he makes it that far.

[Natalie Cunial]

Wow. Did not see Jen actually being for the vote out Jase plan. Here's where Jen gets antsy and wants to make a play. I might follow and let her stage a coup next time. The important thing is that she does it, not me. I hope that maybe Nick or Keesha wins and puts up Steven-Jase. Here's the kicker, I'd vote out Steven - who is reportedly part of my f3. Jen would want Jase out. Steven's a threat to me personally. The only one left. Because if I got to F3, Jen and Steven would take each other (unless Jen takes me knowing she can't win). My goal was to make jury and make chaos. Unfortunately people took out everyone on my hit list but Laura so far. The only way to make chaos now is to turn on s2 or to make Nick go crazy again by putting him up. But I notice that I can make an easy stealth entry into F3 by just not doing anything but being nice. Ugh. I wanted to make big moves later in the game, but seems like I'm still just okay for floating on by and just acting as Nick and/or Jen's (or Keesha's!) pawn when moves are made.

Anyway bye Dan.
