Angela,
Congratulations on surviving another tribal council ! The game is really starting to pick up as we lost 3 players just today! But you still out here though. Let's see what's on your mind tonight...

1. It seemed like you had a solid plan for the next tribal council. Do you think those plans will change or have they already?

2. How hard are you going for that idol? Do you think you're on the right track?

3. Did the putting people on blast punishment tell you anything about your castmates that might affect your game going forward?

4. It might be time to start thinking about future changes in the game. What are your plans as of now for approaching a merged game or other tribal twists you might encounter?

5. Who are your closest allies on this tribe? Who are your enemies and why?

YOU are this rounds Taureg! What are your plans with this special power and what do you make of the idol clue so far? Have you gotten any useful information from the other Tauregs?

Hi Gary!

1. I still have a solid plan for voting out Kellyn. She is toxic and needs to go. I just don't know how strongly other people are aligned with her. It seems like Kellyn is talking to everyone except me, and has been annoyed that I wasn't voted out and then annoyed again when she was the target of the Taureg (me). I think she's just annoyed in general, and I'd like her to be annoyed away from me. I also don't want to push too hard for anyone since it's still early. Brendan might be an easier vote since he didn't show up for the challenge last night. I don't want to let me targeting Kellyn blind me from other possibilities to survive the vote.

2. I've tried like 300 + words to get the idol. I have no fucking idea what the password is and I'm bummed I can't get it. I really need the idol cause I still feel like I'm on the bottom. I've entered all 62 provinces in the password box and none of them worked.

3. Our tribe played it nice with the Taureg twist, so it didn't tell me much other than the fact that people don't want to say bad things about Kellyn. Kinda confirms she has a strong hold on the tribe.

4. I am SO SO SO ready for a swap. I need a swap to be able to talk to some fresh blood and make new bonds. I think I'll be in trouble again if we go to tribal, but I'm hoping I can make it to the swap.

5. I'd say my closest allies are Sea Bass, Donathan and Chelsea. I don't really know which of the 3 I trust the most, so my eggs are spread evenly into their baskets. I don't trust Kellyn at all, and I'm indifferent on Brendan. I'd be happy if either of them went.

6. The idol clue was not helpful at all and I'm frustrated I can't solve it. The other Tauregs weren't super helpful. They did share the clues with me, but I couldn't really find any commonality between their clues and mine.

YOU SWAPPED



Can you give us a rundown on your new tribe? Are you planning on staying strong with your old allies, or do you think it's time to start from scratch? How is the nomad twist going to shape your strategy moving forward?

Hey Danni!

So far, just based on the quick convos last night, it seems like Jed, Stephanie and Robb are the ones in control. Stephanie barely spoke to me, but I was able to talk a bit with Jed. He seems nice enough, but Chelsea has told me they are playing hard. Robb is the one I've talked to the most just from the last Taureg round, and his story seemed to change really quickly. Before the swap, we talked about the idol clues and he said he was totally out of the loop in his tribe and was super nervous. Now that we've swapped, however, he's saying his whole tribe is super tight and they were all kumbaya. So I can't really believe anything he says. As far as Davie and Pat, who knows. They were barely online last night. Brendan hasn't been online in like 5 days. He hasn't helped with the last 2 challenges. It's going to be garbage if me or Chelsea gets voted out before someone inactive. Even if he logs in and checks his account, it doesn't mean he's playing the game. If we make it through this vote, I'll have a chance to find my footing in the game. If they target me or Chelsea, I'm done.

The Nomad twist is bizarre, and I hate Kellyn, so she hasn't said a word to me. I hope she's stupid enough to make me the next Nomad if I survive this tribal.
