Natalie Congrats on winning your first immunity challenge! I have a few questions for you as we head into the weekend.

1-Your tribe won the immunity challenge tonight shorthanded. Is this a good sign for the group moving forward?
2-Can you walk us through the tribe dynamics as you see them? Are there any clear alliances or groups that you can see?
3-What do you think of the Taureg twist? Any advantages/disadvantages you can see from this twist in the game?
4-Any other thoughts? questions?

We look forward to hearing from you!

Promise to respond to these after the challenges and such.

AS A NOTE - I DO VOLUNTEER TO BE TAUREG THIS TIME!!

[Natalie]

Oh looks like I wasn't selected... again. TYPICAL.

Y'all want some dirty laundry on Pat? Okay. Here it is below:

Pat has TWO personalities on this tribe. Literally.

(FYI - I am answering this from an episode two perspective - hence the probably more craziness than usual between my answers here and now and what I'll follow up with for the next set of questions. :) )

1-Your tribe won the immunity challenge tonight shorthanded. Is this a good sign for the group moving forward?

Well, I wouldn't say they were shorthanded as much as you're implying. While I was not there in person, I think you can obviously agree that I was there in spirit and my leadership was felt immensely. We thankfully had enough people show up and were able to get the win. It was really a relief for me to be safe though. I am glad I was able to coach this rag tag team of individuals to be a unified tribe in just one night. I was very proud to see what we were able to accomplish as a tribe. I am so proud of myself.

2-Can you walk us through the tribe dynamics as you see them? Are there any clear alliances or groups that you can see?

Right now - I think tribe dynamics are hard to assess and I will be honest it does have me a little nervous. While I felt good on night one and could tell that everyone loved me and my strong leadership and personality, I felt like the first challenge really bonded people and no one thanked me for my leadership skills. I haven't had any specific conversations about alliances and I am worried that Davie/Gabby/Mike/Alec formed one. As it stands, I want to stick by the original four for now and I'm hoping that lasts.

3-What do you think of the Taureg twist? Any advantages/disadvantages you can see from this twist in the game?

I am still a bit confused by the twist to be honest - was figuring out who gets picked, how, and what it gets them. I want to get this mostly for the tribal mingling - seems to be the biggest advantage because my intuition is telling me there's going to be a swap very soon. I think that's a huge advantage - that and the idol? You've become a huge threat. While I don't know for sure who has won - I suspect Mike.

4-Any other thoughts? questions?

I want to make it my goal to find out who won and eliminate the Taureg winner- even if they haven't done anything against me just yet.
