Final 7. You have officially outlasted 2/3 of the cast. Only a few more days until the game is over and we pick the winner of Stranded in Morocco

1-Once again the tribe voted together, presenting as a unified front. Is the tribe truly unified, or are you putting on a show so the people on the bottom won't scramble?
2-With only 7 people left in the game, there is no room to hide. How are you planning on surviving these next 4 tribals?
3-You have 2 more rounds to use your idol. Do you think you'll need it?
4-How are you determining who the biggest threats in the game are?

Good luck, see you tomorrow night

Okay so rough Tribal Council... the hosts did not hold back from expressing their frustration with the lack of... oomph at Tribal Council and unanimous votes. Why are you willfully going along with unanimous votes? Do you believe you are the one making the decision on who is going home? Did you come up with the plan to get rid of Angela and were you the one to tell other people or did you get that 2nd hand?

I can't play with people who are not playing.

1. Pffft. Yes, the tribe is a truly unified in its idiocracy.

2. I'll need 3 or 4 more immunity wins.

3. Yes. Probably next round.

4. I don't even know with these idiots anymore. There might as well be a Don/Davie/Chelsea F3 where I'm the only juror voting for Chelsea, so fuck my perspective. At this point in the game, the biggest threats are those that YOU would vote for, that's the best way I can think of it, seeing as there aren't necessarily people making enemies on the jury.

love how blunt this is. Do you think there is any chance that people may flip to vote with you tomorrow? If you had to pick, who would you say the bottom feeders in the uNiFiEd TrIbE are?

I mean, I've lost all hope that people will realise we're in the endgame now, it will probably take DaDon until F5 to understand they won't win this game.

The very first merge vote was exactly what I expected - a near-unanimous safe vote that allowed people to settle into this big tribe and (re)build bond.
Steph was too much of a crazy cat lady to progress further, so I get that as well. I wanted to lie low at the start, and not be targetted at F11.
So that Mike+Alec vote really made me happy. Wow, people see who the threats are. Wow, we pulled off a massive vote-split. Wow, this game is really turning now. Uh-huh.
I even got so happy that I got paranoid (well, not just me) that the game would start turning too quickly for me to stay in it for long. I wanted to take out a couple UTR non-entities, but it was still surprising how un-split the votes were. Well, fuck it, people don't wanna pick sides and make enemies at F10. That's.... alright....
But fuck whatever happened afterwards. Fuck Don for believing whatever game he's playing is worthy of being called a game. Fuck Davie for not being here nearly enough to understand that he doesn't understand anything. Fuck Gabby for being a dumb pussy, and fuck Alec for thinking he's gonna even be at the end playing with those people. Fuck Seb the least, but still, fuck him. Did I forget Chelsea? No, I'm not talking about people that should have gone home for literally everyone's interest.

I've been trying to open up this game by getting Seb, Chelsea out, but nope, no one cares about building a resume here.

I mean I'm not leaving tomorrow, because if I lose, I have the idol. And people either know that, or highly suspect it, so I'll probably be approached a bit. I'll say this: post-TC, I'm giving everybody the silent treatment. Not sending out a single message first tonight. Will have to actually talk to people tomorrow, because I don't wanna tank this season (oh, what a hero!), but jfc playing like THAT is just frustrating.
Well, I'm the biggest bottom feeder in that I've had no say over who leaves the last 3 TCs. But if I got to the end now, after trying to talk sense to people in an incredibly boring merge, I might just get some votes for being the only one who tried to play this game. Who tried to approach people with different plans, tell people that they're position in the game sucked and that they were lapdogs. So I'll keep doing that, but there's no way I progress without immunity now. I just don't believe it anymore. I've tried more than once, I'll try again, but with much less optimism.

The bottom feeders are DaDon, but Alec/Gabby don't have enough brain cells to think about F3s, either.

I'm either having deja vu, or there's been a Survivor castaway exactly in my shoes before, someone who tried to do things but couldn't, as everyone was in a group mindset and not looking out for themselves. Any help?

HOW DARE YOU POST THIS IN MY THREAD

No, I'm just kidding, I'm sometimes unsure if Jeffy understands my jokes. (:

The answers to your questions are the following : I am not, I am not, and I did not.

I might have been thinking of Ciera, but for some reason I think it was a man who even said such things in confessionals. Nvm, I'll try to do some digging tomorrow.

Yeah, Mike came to mind, but I woul have voted for Carolyn.:/ And I'm not sure if the people in this game would vote for an immunity beast who had no power. I mean, I can always try to make it better by explaining my game and why it was better, so just getting to the F3 is what I crave. But I'm really gettting into my own head thinking I can pull off 3 more ICs after winning 1 and sucking at quite a few of them.

I was already irritated with the general gameplay during Pat's round, and that has since increased tenfold, but the hosts and their comments today made me even more annoyed at how boring this season is.

Like, if this was a legit season of Survivor, it had one of the most chaotic/strategic first TCs ever (Chris). Then, whatever the fuck that 3rd swap TC was (Jed), filled with "betrayals", (mis)used idols, a tie vote, and drama all across the board. Probably top something TCs ever, and something is not a big number. But ok, besides the satisfying and unpredictable, if edited for TV, Mike-Alec vote, there was nothing else here?.. Great characters, plenty of drama, and possibly a strong pre-merge (if you imagine the inactives were alive), but suuuuch a frustrating cast post-merge. Ghost Island levels of frustration.

Coincidences are happening this season. Tanya, Jed, Ghandia, Stephanie, Robb, Clay is the boot order of Ahmar if Clay didn't quit and I was voted out. It's the same order those players finished in Thailand.
Ghost Island brought its frustrating gameplay by having 4 of its players in F8, when other seasons had less.
What will David vs. Goliath bring over? Will I win?

I almost just want to make a post at campfire, calling everybody out and trashing their games for being pathetic.
Chelsea & Seb are the only people playing well.

But I know I can guarantee my own safety tonight, so maybe I should just really sit back, only talk to people about what THEY message me about, and see whatever the fuck happens? I don't even care who goes at this point, it makes sense for all of Gabby/Alec/Davie/Don to approach me and make deals with me. But these idiots don't see it.

But I think given how none of my proactive game worked recently, I should save this for my last splash at F6? Like, maybe I should give this round the opportunity for people to see that they're blind. If they don't, fuck it, I'll vote Seb or Che (ideally Seb, but his fucking idol .....), and play my idol on myself.
