Well, we went through a strange one that time. Corrine self-voted again.
Randy was disappointed, which I knew he would be. I never understood that alliance but respect that he is so completely loyal to the deals he makes. It makes me feel more secure with our alliance knowing he is that way with someone who is barely in the game. We are way past me doubting him anyway.
So this vote for Mick didn't happen and it may have been the best thing ever. Only time will tell. But I think coming that close to being out of the game may have made him realize that he really betrayed his alliance. I asked Randy to talk to him and now I want the decision to be completely his. I know I am to emotionally attached to think it through the way he will. So, the plan is to talk to Mick tonight. Not sure where Randy is in this one, but I have a feeling Mick may get a second chance. I just hope he realizes how important it's going to be that he be with us 110%. Time to prove himself.
So, Randy made a final deal with Todd, maybe a f6...can't remember. Why in the world would he make a deal like that? He also found out Todd faked his Paloma vote and voted for Rob.
I need photoshop if I am ever going to survive All Stars. lol But now he has a deal he doesn't want to break. I told him when the others on this tribe find out he faked a vote they won't have any problem voting Todd. So I may have to arrange a coup
I get the feeling Cirie is right about where I am with this game and all the lying. So she will definitely have no problem with that vote. Cirie and I have talked some. Maybe eventually I will talk about past games we have been in together. We got along well, so I think it would be fine. I just worry about that info being out there too early. But then again, I worry about everything lol so there may really be no reason. Who knows. lol
Here is how things stand currently with my tribe:
Randy - My closest ally.
What can I say, I trust him completely and hope for him to win it all, but if for some reason he doesn't...
Rob C- would be my second choice to win. He is just so awesome. And the fact that he is still in this game is just the best. lol It annoys the life out of Yul. A few rounds ago Yul told Randy that if Rob survived another vote on our tribe he would know something was up and that some of his people were working with Rob, lol. You think? I still think that mutiny was the most pivotal move in the game. I know it was for him obviously, but having him move to our tribe and give us another person we could trust so much has been very important in some very close tribals.
Mick - I've been talking about him recently, so we all know I think lots of Mick.
He's great, but gets too paranoid and really needs to trust more. I understand being that way, I can get that way at times too, but in this game at some point I think you have to decide who you are going to trust and go with it no matter what. That's pretty much what I did with Randy, and it was tough, trust me, the first couple times he and I talked I thought he was pretty shady lol and now that's so hard to believe. I think Mick does trust me, he just needs to worry a bit less and stick close to his alliance. Moving now only made him look very risky to Randy and I, and he's moving to an alliance that is very united, so he was only going to be a vote. They had nothing to offer him. Hopefully he sees that fully now.
Cirie - I have only talked to briefly as I mentioned above. But we have been in other games before so I know she is competative and loyal. Definitely to my advantage knowing that and it makes it easier to trust her. Eventually, I want her to know I am the same way, but for now I hope she trusts me too.
Tom- Just talked a bit about him in a recent post, but he's pretty great and I know he is loyal. I'm very glad he is on this tribe and hope he makes it far.
Randy says he knows him well, and that they worked together in another game. I sometimes wonder if Randy knows how much of a challenge risk Tom will be later on. lol He has the potential to really take control of the immunity down the road. Should be interesting.
Todd - Don't even get me started. I am so disappinted that he faked that vote. Not only did he vote against us, but he lied about it too. Whatever. I don't have time or space for that and am not going to align with someone like that. He told me I was the only person who hasn't lied to him. He was right. I have been honest and tried to work with him. Not anymore. Randy may have made a final deal with him, and we planned to work together as well. I don't respect that kind of game and would never trust taking him to merge. He would flip first chance he got.
As far as the other tribe. I think Yul and Taj are running things, and wonder about how everyone else feels about that. I would guess Ethan and Terry are their closest and who they trust the most. Ethan, no comment. Terry confuses me. He seems like a nice guy, and I wonder how he fits into their plans. Would really like to know more about him, but that won't happen this game. Mookie, lol I like Mookie just from what I see of his posts. Seems like a lot of fun and loyal to his alliances. Amanda and I talked only very briefly when we were original Casaya and she seemed nice, haven't really seen much of her since. I'm feeling pretty bad for Ashley. She has really been attacked in this game, and been through a lot. Unfortunately if they lose at all I'm sure she will go. Makes it miserable knowing I could save her with the idol, but it needs to stay put until we know we have the numbers for merge. Aras, talk about the strong silent type.
I rarely see him post, and we have never spoken, yet somehow he is going to be a major part of merge and our survival. Or so Randy says. He also said Aras thinks he and I need to talk. So we'll see. Just so I don't say anything to mess up Randy's plans.
That would be awful.
I know some are really upset about the pause in the game, but I am sort of glad for it. It's been pretty crazy since day one and this has been a nice break. It has also given us some time to sort out the Mick situation. Maybe all the stalkers and trouble makers will get bored and leave and we can just play this game out as it's supposed to be played. And to the hosts, you are doing a fine job.
I may not agree with all your decisions
but I'll keep those comments to myself lol. The game has been anything but boring. And Hi to the PW's. ;D Not sure if any of you are even reading my pathetic confessional, but if so, thanks!
He was to be my pick and then him pick Colby. It sounded perfect to me. Of course Randy isn’t around, don’t know why he thinks he needs to sleep or anything 
and I would have really liked some help. 
so it bought me enough time for Randy to show up again. We talked, well he talked, I was mad and he wasn’t really listening to me, so I got pretty angry. I still don’t think he realizes how MAD I was. I kept begging to pick Colby but he wouldn’t agree. He assured me that Colby was working closely with Ashley and Ashley would pick Sandra and then the 3 of them could work with Cirie to vote out Frosti. He also pointed out that if we are all on the same tribe we will never all make merge and would have to vote some of our own alliance. It made sense, but didn’t make me feel any better. So, I hoped he was being honest with me. To this point I had never had a reason to question him, but this was one of our first real trials. 
So I yell at Randy where we were talking and said, “Don’t you dare leave!!” 
Then he creates a group chat and Mick, PG (I think) and Coach are there. Frosti has us all declare that we will take out James and Randy. Apparently I lied well enough, because Mick sends me an im and said I had scared him to death! lol 
Yaaa!
Talk about disappointing. Well, he finally came back and posted that he had messed up. Whatever, at least he admitted it indirectly. 
This is awful. 
but I'll keep those comments to myself lol. The game has been anything but boring. And Hi to the PW's. ;D Not sure if any of you are even reading my pathetic confessional, but if so, thanks!
