I have begun creating the alliances to secure my safety. I just hope its not too soon but I don't think people will think that. I feel I can be safe on this tribe. We are also very active with the exception of Kenny which is great. I hope I was not too late (once again) and missed out on those early alliances but I think not.
Rob C and me hit off pretty quickly talking about Horror films and what not. He was the first one I approached about an alliance. I had heard good things about him from Cirie and he seems like a good, loyal guy.
Mick and me had previously bonded over the whole Anti-Frosti alliance deal. So we have an understanding to work together naturally in a way. However he may have to go due to reasons explained later.
Kenny I took to a F3 in my first completed game. He is so easy to use but a good guy down under. He went absolutely crazy in the FTC swearing at people calling them names etc, turned out great for me! Although this time he is probably more of a liability as people know of him. We will see how that turns out for sure.
Natalie, me and her joked abit about how bad we were at the challenge. We formed an alliance too and I mentioned Rob C and she mentioned how we would need more. I didn't mention I had spoken to more than Rob C incase she thinks I am talking to too many people.
Colby is from Australia. Like Corrine this means we are pretty close because of that unique bond. Just a few mins ago I approached him about an alliance which he thought was a good idea. He is not really too social though i.e gives short replies. It is so common in this game and is a massive flaw in many players. You NEED a social game to do well. Just give decent replies and you will go far.
Sandra. We are engaged so not much needs to be said. I just hope she cools down the antics pubically with this new tribe. They won't know us well and will instantly think something is up. But its good she is with me as I can trust her. She is just never round which is hugely annoying. Partying way too much that girl!
Ashley I have not talked to yet. Lets hope she improves her attitude.
More on the secret Casaya/Timbira alliance virtually formed. This was the thing I was meant to keep secret from confessionals however I say screw that. Its not that official anyway. Mainly me just telling 4 Casaya members in a group chat that our tribes could work together to take out Frosti's gang and Marcus's gang. Despite what Marcus thinks as apparently we are F2 buddies. I have finally had enough of him screwing me time and time again. Once again he told people who I was. Specifically the person I told him not to tell!!! My word he has a big mouth.

If we lose immunity (which is looking likely due to our poor flags, I did like my motto though; Strength from Unity, one of my chapters) I don't know what will happen. I need to make a solid four. Me, Rob C and Sandra at the moment are the people I trust. Natalie, Colby and Kenny are also there for me I believe. Mick I am worried might try something. So next round I expect him or Ashley to go. If Mick goes, the first big player in this game will be going home. Thanks to me of course but I will be doing that for my long term future. However he could be a good future ally. Its hard to tell. Time will be the judge of whether I keep him or not. Assuming I am in a good postion right now and someone else has not done something sneaky!
The reason I was quick with the alliances is that I believe its almost first in first served. People respect you for going in quick. I think most are under the illusion its turns people off. I don't dive straight into alliances, you DO need to talk to the person, get to know them. But do that quickly and then establish the alliance. It is just so solid. Most don't do this because A) They have a poor social game and wait for people to come to them B) UTR strategy which leaves luck in others hands and C) Just poor judgement.
More later on about the Casaya/Timbira alliance.

Well we won immunity which was great! Our tribe really dominated that challenge so all is good in the Aitu hood.
The Casaya/Timbira alliance was formed over a group chat where wwe discussed my future with being dragged into the whole Frosti crap. They said they would help me (I have alot of friends on that tribe it appears) get out of the mess. So we formed the Casaya/Timbira alliance and one of our objectives is to eliminate those on the list. The Anti-Frosti list (excluding myself) and Frosti's alliance and friends. We had all had enough of the whole drama and decided to work together. They feared outside influence would warn Marcus and co about our alliance to take them out so I refrained early from giving details. Too bad as I can't remember everything right now!
Now to todays events, first we will get to a huge move orchastrated by me. Me and Ethan got into a bit of a chat. Namely about Frosti. He suggested it would be good if he could take Frosti out. So I began to encourage him saying it was a good idea and he went around seeing what was happening. He got Paloma to vote with him then hit a dead end. He asked me to help him get a few votes. So I contacted my old friend Coach and quickly signed him up for it which was a good start. They invited me into their tribal group chat as Ethan wanted my help convincing them fully. I helped persaude them to vote Frosti listing many reasons. Dramatic recent news! Tom just told me he is NOT voting Frosti due to Palomas weak Immunity ability. I have convinced Cirie who is very iffy over voting Frosti to vote for him but she said first she wants to confirm Coach. So HOPEFULLY it will be a 4-3 vote. The biggest in the game so far. If not well... I AM NOT ON THAT TRIBE LOL! So atleast I won't be in the firing line. Ethan did nothing so I feel it is mainly my move. He just suggested it, I actually came up with the whole plan and who to get to vote! I got them to vote too! Cirie has just confirmed she is voting for Frosti which will be great. Of course this move makes me a huge target. Like it was kinda wierd to be in another tribes, voting group thread... Spot the odd one out? Perhaps I get too over involved in other tribes activities... But I told you this could happen!
Too my own tribe now lol. Mick approached me with an alliance as his "number 2" I suggest he talk to Natalie and Rob who I already have alliances with. I said I would talk to Colby and probably Sandra. I told him me and Sandra were quite neutral (lol if you are on SurvivorSucks forum) and that we didn't talk all that much and she can get annoying. Of course thats a huge lie but I don't want him thinking we are close or anything and therefore targeted. I also made me almost reluctant to ask her to join our alliance but said I would just for safety. Colby and me have already talked however I don't want Mick getting into his ear too much as I fear Mick could get him to be more loyal to him then he is to me. Right now I think Natalie would side with me and of course Rob too over Mick. I was also quite happy with how I set Mick out as the leader. Making him do all the big stuff (I had to tell him to talk to those two lol) and putting him out front. Lol. We all know whos pulling the strings and in real control so I do not care. Only problem is at the end where people are fooled into thinking that he was actually in control. If I get that far its something to worry about. Also he takes the fall if I screw up somewhere as people will think its his fault AND he will also be targeted.
Now onto the alliance creation. I warned Rob he was about to ask and for him just to pretend that me and him had nothing. Too controlling? I think not. My social game is good enough to make it sound friendly and such. Also a good strategy move aswell I think suggesting it. I am really starting to like Rob. He seems like a good honest bloke. One tihng popped up where Mick found out he had played with Rob in a mini and said he was not trustworthy at all. Rob got kinda scared when I told him however I told him its all good. I hope I have a good read on people so I hope this is not an issue later on. I told him about it so he should trust me as I didn't hide it or anything. Rob had already told me they had played together anyway so it was no surprise.
I also talked with Natalie after and she seemed cool with it. I popped in the "this doesn't mean I will leave you or anything" speech so I hope its all good with her. I don't even need to convince Sandra, just give her a heads up. I will speak to Colby later however we already have a deal and come on? Whos gonna be so dumb and reject a majority alliance lol.
Colby did a great job with the flag and is well liked by the tribe so its all good being close to the liked one. Mick is getting on my nerves too. His constant "public" talking is SOOOOO annoying. And the way he talks too. I can see me turning on him if he keeps it up. Me and Corrine always use to laugh at how pathetic some of the "public forum" people were and he was top of the list. It just seems so desperate and so forced. Oh well too bad I am aligned with him. Although I could turn on him, I don't think its a good move right now.
More later hopefully!

Short confessional however full details tomorrow.
Well Frosti went nuts at me as Tom told him I was behind it. He was mainly correct however some of it was wrong such as the fact I created the group chat etc. It is a huge concern despite the fact we called a truce/cease-fire. My part of the deal was not to target him anymore or talk about targeting him while his plan was not to talk about me like he has and unofficially not target me either. However he told me he would pubically declare war on me if he found out otherwise. He seems easy to manipulate so I will be careful of him because I don't want something I say to someone to be taken the wrong way.
Am I scared of him? No. I can handle it. I just have to maintain control over my tribe. My ally Ethan appears to be close to the end. He is apart of AAA (aka Casaya-Timbira) and he appears to be the next person to leave which is sad. There is nothing much I or anyone else can do to save him. Hopefully a miracle happens.
