Wardog's reaction made me sad, but I understood. It also reminded me that I was technically ~A Villain~ on S25. It took me months/years to accept that narrative. And you know what? It goes to show you can be "villainous" without making moves for the sake of attention, and without popping off at tribal. Elizabeth probably thought her antics were "unforgettable" and "iconic" last night. Oh you're not wrong. They were memorable. But not for the reasons you think. She looked like a complete idiot and the whole game saw her ass on full display.
She's a hypocrite too. Her entire vendetta against Missy has always been about Missy grabbing immunity at the F16 Prisoner's Dilemma and sending her home last season. Now she's blatantly throwing challenges, and laughing about it? Why were you mortally offended by Missy playing the game last season, but when you do it in a more extreme way - by trying to throw when it's a legit challenge - you've deemed it "funny" and entertainment? Dumbass.
Like I said, Aurora BOREalis is on my shit list too. Auborea? Borerora? Whatever. There's talking smack, that's fine. Everyone was. And I piped up during a challenge last week. But read the room. The moment had passed - and Wardog was clearly distressed because we had an idiot on our tribe trying to throw. Don't double, triple, and quadruple down. Get your dig in, go ahead. But yelling repeatedly in capital letters and beating a dead horse is and was unnecessary.
1-We're down to 15 players. Which of the 15 are your biggest competition moving forward? Are you planning on working with them, or do they need to be cut sooner rather than later?
The Vets with the best games are my allies (Tai, Rocker). I'm not intimidated by the others, except maybe Liz still because of that annoying idol. But she's not long for this game.
Alexis is definitely the biggest threat in the game, imo. She's good at challenges, and she's very social. She's also smart, and I could tell on Puka 2.0 because she was grilling me... and yeah. I feel like she's the player to beat. And she's going to have a smaller target initially I feel than someone like me, Missy, or Liz. The other thing is that we're SUPPOSEDLY allies, but idk. I feel like her duo with Liz... that's concerning. And is Alexis behind a lot of this paranoia surrounding "Missy" allegedly naming me in some capacity?
Oh and I guess Liz too, I should say yes, she needs to go sooner rather than later. Aside from that I think everyone is a threat and.... not to sound like one of those annoying guys who talk about "PERCEPTION" on the show. But it's true. What even makes someone a threat? Everyone's biggest competitor could be someone different. I'd say FOR ME I want anyone with bad blood for me gone sooner rather than later. Keeping "big names" around longer is good though, as long as they're not coming after me. And I go back to Alexis... when we get to the merge I'll have to read her and the dynamic to really know how to play that... whether we align, or whether she needs to go.
2-Of the 15, who are you least threatened by and why?
Well I'm least threatened by my allies, because we trust each other. And it's F15 so there's lots of game left to play. If I can't trust them then what do I have? When we get into the merge and closer to the endgame I'll need to reevaluate, but for now, no.
Then aside from that.... least threatened by who I'm not working with in some way.... probably Borerora. Well. I'm threatened in the sense that it's somewhat personal for me now, and leaving at her hand - or Liz's - would be excruciating and I don't need any of those emotions right now. But in terms of social capital and everything else, I feel like she's not going to have a lot going for her, and she'll be one of the easier votes to consider if she's there at the merge.
3-The last few nights there has been an option to make yourself immune if you're willing to pay for it. If that option is available again, do you think you need to take it?
We have to. Elizabeth taking it again - or worse, Allie - would guarantee one of us leaving if we lose. Probably me at this point because I feel like Liz hates me now, or at least views me as a threat. So there's no question.
Yesterday I gave Tai 19 coins and Wardog gave him at least 5.... I guess he didn't get the hint, but oh well. That was my strategy to both keep him safe and keep it away from Liz, but it didn't work. And that's fine. In retrospect Wardog and I should have just pooled our coins.
And I'm tempted to suggest we pool coins among our four, but we'll see. I'm worried Wardog may have willed his bounty to Liz, which would not be good.
4-All 3 idol clues are now available to you for the tribe beach. Have you been searching? or are the idol clues not worth your coins?
Oh I didn't realize there was a third clue. Hmmm we should probably get it. We need coins to outbid Liz, but the idol is important too because if Liz/Allie have two idols between them then we're fucked. So we need to find it first before they do. Or at least for the peace of mind in knowing they don't have it.
