Episode 14: Thanks to All My Fallen Soldiers! - Stranded in Tuamotus

I guess I'm asking confessional questions today. Congrats on single digits! For some of you this is a real accomplishment. For others, you're only here because someone wants to be sitting at the end with you. Which category do you fall into? ONLY TIME WILL TELL!

1-Last night Jeff talked about the Scooby Doo reveal, a classic Stranded tribal council question that boils down to "perception is reality" or "If players don't know you're playing hard right now, they wont think so when you claim it at final tribal." Who in the game do you think is currently banking on pulling a Scooby Doo and revealing they were the mastermind all along? Do you think you fall into this category?

2-We're in the single digits! Who left would you consider a big target? Who do you think is a slam dunk to beat at a final tribal? How do you think the other players are ranking you in this question?

3-What is your endgame strategy? Are you planning to keep big targets around? or are you planning on dragging someone useless across the finish line with you?

4-The Jury bench is filling up quickly. Walk me through each juror and how you think they perceive you and your game. Do you think they'd vote for you right now? if not, what could you do to change that before the F3?

Keep up the good work! The finale will be here before you know it!

Y'all really know how to get the paranoia going! :heart:

1. Even just getting asked this question last night it's like...am I meant to be spilling the beans? Am I the one with the Scooby Doo moment? Getting an accurate read on the other players and the jury is always tough for me but I'd say I probably don't fall into this category. I've been making moves that I want to make and booting people that aren't good for my game. I keep getting my way so I feel like I do have a good sense of control and I'm not just letting other people walk all over me.

I know there was all that talk about Matt being my lapdog so I don't know if that still holds up? I mean, Hope was practically begging Matt to boot me yesterday and 'be bold' so that kind of implies that Matt is the one who needs to make the big move and not me. I've also held a couple of idols for the alliance, I've been holding everyone's money for most of this merge too...plus I'm the one that keeps getting votes. Is that because they want to take me down? They don't trust me? They don't think I can sway me? I honestly can't be sure. I don't know if people see me as the one in charge over here but I think I'm at least seen as a solid player.

I honestly don't know if anyone is banking on that Scooby Doo style reveal or not. Everyone is still trying to make moves and get what they want. Y'all need to throw a Touchy Subjects challenge in here so we can see what's up.

2. I guess I'm a target because I keep getting votes but maybe they'll get bored of that and try to vote for someone else. I'm not sure who might be a slam dunk....Shamar maybe? I know he's been itching to do his own thing but he hasn't been getting his way and I'm not sure a lot of people take him seriously. Then there's someone like Hope who's been more actively strategic, but she's also kind of a rat so I'm not sure people will respect that in the end. I don't think I'm a slam dunk to beat in the end. Maybe people think they could beat me and that's completely possible, but I think I've been doing enough to prove myself as someone who's playing hard.

3. Well I want Matt in the end with me 100%. He's the only person left in this game who I'll never vote for and I'm definitely staying loyal to him. I know sometimes going to the end with someone you've worked so closely with can be a mistake but if the perception about him being my lapdog holds up, I think I have the upper hand over him and can paint myself as the one in control. Stephannie is an interesting one because I don't really want to vote her out but I would at the end if I thought it was best. I can't really tell what the jury might think of her or what the players think...she's a bit of en enigma despite knowing her so well. I think it would probably be better to cut her though, since she'd probably have a better chance at getting some of the vets' jury votes over me. I think my ideal F3 would be one of me, Matt and Shamar. I don't think Shamar would steal any votes from me and I think I could fight pretty hard against Matt for the rest.

4. Okay jury....hmm. Well Reynold loves me, I'd like to think he'd vote me 100%. I'm pretty sure he was closer to me than he was with Matt so I'd hope that would be a locked vote. I definitely could get Tai's vote too since I tried to help him out as much as I could and we had a good relationship. Me not giving him my idol might have upset him but if I do make the end I should be able to justify it as a good game move. Under the right circumstances I could see Allie voting for me? Like it might be possible with me/Matt/Shamar since she wasn't super close to any of us. Rocker.....probably not, didn't have much of a relationship but once again still possible depending on who I'm up against. Liz lol I don't think she'd ever vote for me...but I'll try!

Honestly I'm glad that Reynold and Tai are in there as early jurors because I'd like to think they'll be talking positively about me to get some good pro-Sherri vibes going!

Perceptions just scare me in general so thanks for making me stressed out with these questions :sob: :heart:
