Our tribe won a challenge and avoided tribal council. I created two new alliances with Burton and Morgan to go on top of my withstanding alliance of Ciera and Danni (which still needs a name. Trying to come up with fire related things because of the firemaking challenge). Finally, the other tribe is WAY more exciting than ours because I've been hearing the most random things. What happened this round? Well let's see..........
For starters I talked to Morgan a bit about how the vote went down. She said that up until last minute the vote was for Sash, but then it was switched to Coach. Apparently right after that happened she essentially rage quit the chat. Well good to know that one of my allies have the 3 Cs.

But I still like Morgan. She is the person from the other tribe I talk to (just about) the most and it seems like she obviously hates her tribe. She keeps saying she wants a swap so that's good. Luckily that tribe seems pretty dysfunctional. I honestly can't see how, I mean look at our tribe. I don't even think we have people online enough to be dysfunctional. I check my AIM every so often and just sigh at how many people are offline at once. (ok so I just checked my AIM and weirdly enough everyone on the other tribe EXCEPT Hali who I have still yet to talk to are offline. Lol)
What a bunch of failures
So while people ARE online, I do try to talk to them. Last episode I mentioned that I have been talking to Nick a lot and have grown to like him. Well this round I finally brought up the possibility of an alliance and he was HYPED. He was excited, said yes, said he always liked me, was afraid to bring it up in conversation, etc. I am almost convinced I know who this is (Sean from T3) based on how he speaks and how he describes his life and stuff, but I love his enthusiasm (there is a reason why he won after all). Now I can be wrong about alias and that's honestly fine, I wouldn't care, but it is still funny the though of me talking to Sean and being close allies with him, especially after almost never talking to him once in T3 as Jenna. But again, that's past game and alias stuff that is not confirmed so I am going to get back on track.
This jigsaw puzzle was pretty 'aight. I knew I was not the greatest at jigsaws, but I was still glad Danni picked me as someone because it shows she thought I can help the tribe. Turns out Ciera is a puzzle goddess though and was not initially in. Luckily Danni was able to log in last minute to sub her in place of Dan, who would refuse to tell us what his puzzle time was. All we knew was that it was worse than Kim's of 11 minutes.

Now Kim is an interesting character. She is hardly ever around or very active. She is not very good at carrying on a conversation. She also said she was really good at jigsaws. Sorry, but 11 minutes is NOT good on this jigsaw. After playing Good and Evil and seeing the hellish jigsaws with rotating pieces and weird shapes, most other ones don't look like a huge deal to me (DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN GIVE ME ONE OF THOSE JIGSAWS, I WILL STILL CRY A LOT).
But we lost the challenge by SECONDS (lame) and found out about Stacy's power thing. Welp that is lame considering she was the next obvious boot. I wonder if Hali has gotten anything good considering we sent her there twice already......Anyway lack of Stacey means this vote gets harder. The second we got results Kim talked to me about how we should get rid of Dan. Well ya, obviously you are going to say that considering your time off 11 minutes destroyed out average. I talked to Rodney a little bit and he said that he got a worse time which was why his team average was not great, but that's still not much of an excuse.
But at least she HAD a time. Dan gave us nothing at all. Danni starting talking in the alliance chat of Ciera and I basically saying we can choose between Dan and Kim. It seemed pretty clear Dan would be the preferable options. So I talked to Burton about it and he seemed ok with it. One thing I am worried about is that I am kinda in a central position in our tribe right now I think. A LOT of info passes through me I think (not saying everything does, but a lot) so having to explain where I came to a conclusion is going to make people realize that I have been a talker.
I also talked to Danni about the captain vote and she initially said she was between choosing Ciera and I. Honestly, I don't care if I am captain or not so if Ciera didn't want to I'd be fine with it. That is what I said and that is what I thought until I realized the next challenge is live sunday, and I'm not going to be around much the next few days (beach time). So me being captain would be pretty bad. I told Burton and Nick that I was voting Ciera to be the captain. Nick, said he was worried about Ciera not wanting to be captain. Well if she doesn't want to I would hope she would have said something, but at the same time I just won't for her then if she comes back in time. I just know that it would be a bad idea for me to be captain. So I told Burton and he said he agreed Ciera should be captain because of her being good in challenges and such. THEN I talked to Nick who also talked to Burton, and Nick was showing me chatlogs of Burton telling him that I said I was voting Ciera and that was why he was. So it's not a big deal, but now I know Burton is not afraid to name me for minor stuff like this.
Time to refer to my episode title for a little bit. I have started to get pretty involved in relationships with people. I have talked to Coach and am at least pretty sure I wouldn't be his target in a swap. I have talked to Rodney enough where I think the same thing would be the case. Same with Morgan. I also have good relations with basically everyone on my tribe (as far as I can tell). So I am a bit extended and am hoping that won't hurt me down the row. I don't want to be caught with my hand in the cookie jar:

Really other than all this, not much happened this round. It has been pretty empty of anything big except for my Nick alliance. Dan should be going next and Ciera should be the next tribe captain if all goes according to plan. Wouldn't be surprised if the Captains NEXT round (at F14) are involved in picking tribes.
But next time on............
But next time on............
Will we be able to win a live immunity challenge without me being around? Will I be so inactive that I slowly turn into Ghost Gabe, Ghost Cirie's humble servant? (doubt it) Will the other tribe fall into even MORE chaos and give us momentum for a soon to come swap? That's it for now, so long Vince, so long hopefully Dan, and so long readers.
