Volume VI: Venatus Exorsus, Chapter 1: Re-Arming

[Randy Bailey]

Its time for the Second War of the game. First we had The War on Frosti. Now we have me vs Yul/Taj. There is no doubt now. Taj's status even declared war against me. This war needs a name however it is still open. The Truth War? This is what it is about. Who is telling the truth? Of course I am. These people paint me as some terrible villain but I disagree. I am helping out the little man. The people with no super alliances. I am a hero from this regard. Fighting the big alliance with the terror two of Taj and Yul. So I hope people see I am doing this for the good of the game. Not to let some premade/huge mega super alliance to dominate it.

What I need to explain in this confessional:
- My "trial"
- The "re-arming" of the forces to take out Yul/Taj.
- My dealings to show I am an innocent man (lol)
- Anything else which occurs.

[Randy Bailey]

Well first to my "trail" I had to face after voting off James. Well it was certainly brutal, they let nothing go. In fact they didn't even care what I had to say really, they just wanted to know I am now their enemy. I made sure they know that I am going to fight them. Unfortunatly I am fighting a bunch of endurance champs who can win immunity all the time.

Well I have been gathering people to take out Taj/Yul. In a good and bad way, most of my tribe is anti-Yul. However the bad thing is, we are not the best at posting challenges like the current one. We need the Flash challenges to perform alot better, or the ones where shorter attention spans are better used. Tom/Cirie should be perfect to gain for my cause the only problem is that after Paloma we have a problem of who to take out. Both of those two however are good at challenges too. We could be completely dominated however if we continue to get endurance challenges however and I fear this premade/super alliance will win this game.

I have had to work hard to protect my repuation. Many people (well the Yul/Taj thing) seem to have it out for me. Why? I don't know () but they do... There have been many things that have been popping up. Such as Taj talking to Mick WAAAAY too much. She is starting to manipulate him for her own good and he is doubting me alot now. Ethan created a fake convo of me saying I was going to dump Mick and dump Todd later on. That is a complete lie so I had to spend a few hours along with Nat convincing him otherwise. It is truly fustrating as it is not true and they have him so under his control he believes our vote will be 4-4 with him as the decider. This is crazy. I believe Tom and Cirie are fully with us, despite Paloma's vote changer, which should really be ineffective.

Its hard to trust people in these games now. Everyone tells people stuff. I only trust Nat, Rob and Corrine 100%. Also Aras is pretty close up there too. Why? I don't know, but I get good vibes off him. He tells me what has been happening behind the scenes. I suppose early on me and Aras developed a really good connection and I suppose no one really talked to him. Atleast on a personal level. So if this works out, I intend on taking him far.

Nat also found a HII. I helped her look, and actually suggest that we look in past seasons, however full credit to her and her ability to search through Courtneys posts. It was her season after all lol . I told her to look through when you guys (Jaime and Erik) had last been online on the site, I searched both of the S2 sites and Natalie, S1. With S2 having you not logged in in a while, Natalie was able to find Erik had logged in just an hour before the thread wsa posted. So that lead us to believe it was in S1. The funny thing was, that the clue 806, was also the number of the thread (It was the 806th thread created) so we believed it had something to do with that. The chances of that occuring by accident would be well over a million to one, so it was great Nat was still able to find it despite these misleading clues.

More soon. To do with Paloma's attempt to get me out mainly and how horrible we are doing in the challenge.

[Randy Bailey]

Well Paloma is trying to get me out. Paloma/Ethan are now producing fake convo's of me saying things about people in our tribe. Here they are:

tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2qvcabb&s=3

It was fairly easy to prove wrong but now they are going to Todd to he tells me. He wants to talk later about it, so atleast it is a good sign him and Mick are showing me these things. I may possibly go. I won't be using Nat's HII or either of Rob's prizes though. Mick has told me they are now targeting Rob however I will believe it when I see it. I will also get Rob to transfer his Lifelines prize to Natalie in case they do target him and are successful. His double vote is unfortunatly not transferable :/ I think Ethan and Paloma are the same person. In my opinion there is a lot of evidence proving this as I have sent to you Jaime. Mick is so flakey right now. He is talking to them way too much and they are able to manipulate him. I think for the good of the tribe and my alliance, he is going to have to go next. Should we make the merge we cannot afford to have someone flip on us.

There are also rumours that Yul may be on the chopping block if his tribe loses. If that EVER happens. Aras/Taj/Ethan (not going to happen)/Ash and Kelly will apparently be the alliance that will take Yul out. I just can't see it happening though. Perhaps I have scared Taj by repeating the truth to her. That she is not going to the FTC with Yul and his minions. Either way I think I have caused cracks in that alliance. Me and Rob went out yesterday in the challenge thread to screw with Mookies head and I think it worked. He was losing it and we managed to annoy Yul too. I was telling Mookie how he was guarenteed 6th etc (just a fake number lol) and I think it definatly annoyed him. Time will tell though.

So if I survive this TC I should be set. The first on a new tribe is always the hardest. I just need to make sure Mick and Todd don't go walkabout as I fear. Mick has told me he has Pizza as his prize and I am sure that is true. Several reasons along with Aras supplying me alot of info on the happenings. Aras is truly me best card in this game. He is going to be vital if I go far. I think we have a solid deal going so it will be interesting the reaction when he "betrays" them even though he has been with me all along.

Support the Cause

My Support the Cause charity/movement is a secret way of psychological warfare against the TY Alliance. I think by getting people to boost my Karma after it was +16 (thanks Nat for that ) all the way down to -12, we will be able to show the support of numbers. This will probably help the doubters in my alliance who think that it is a lost cause and also give a warning to Yul who may be going sooner then he thinks anyway. I think it will also make me appear heroic to the outsiders and we can rally against them. TY shouldn't of messed with me, they thought Frosti gave them/us hell, well they have something new coming their way. I have a whole arsenal of evidence and information to use against them of what they have been up to this whole game to ruin their reputation and get any floaters to side with me. I think it will also place me as the "figurehead" of the movement against TY if it was not already clear I was. Or maybe all this is just a way to boost my karma...?

The thread should also get alot of support from Pre-Jury and place me in their favour should any more twists involving them occur again. Frosti should also jump onboard the Ethan=Paloma thing and help carry on the thread because of the fake convo stuff. Atleast I hope he does and doesn't try make me look bad. Although the thread is not really to do with the Karma part of the Cause.

So support the cause Jaime, Erik and the PWs:

[Randy Bailey]

I have ended my official campaign for "Support the Cause" now that my Karma is back to being the highest in the games. I normally don't care but Natalie did alot of work to get it high so I think the point was made to the others. Also me displaying my power to the others in the game. It was a 7 hour campaign and I think it went well. From -12 to positive 12. And I hope people continue to boost it upwards. Thanks to the PW/Hosts I tricked btw

[Sydney Wheeler]

Karma is on the rise

[Sydney Wheeler]

oh, and who do you think will go this round from the other tribe? OR should I say who do u secretly wish will go

[Randy Bailey]

Karma is now at 9. They continue to smite me but I have enough people exalting me. Its not normally something I care about, but Nat put alot of work into getting it high and it was kind of rude for them to do that.

I actually thought Ashley would go this round so I was surprised that Kelly went. Also very surprised that they split the vote, that was very surprising so glad I didn't try anything crazy. Kelly wasn't too happy about going and she was very pissed to say the least. She is kind of wierd anyway and seemed flippy so kind of glad it was her over Ash. I WOULD of hoped Yul or Taj because they are virtually my enemy in this game and they are good players.

I have been thinking lately with the idol and all, who I would target between Yul and Taj. In all honesty it's hard to know. Both are good players. Yul is easily a better player. No doubt. He also controls more of that tribe. However I need to think if I took him out, would Taj, who hates me alot more than Yul who doesn't, whether she could regain his pieces and carry on. I expect Yul would try to help after he left though. I would also gain no one from taking out Taj, only really getting someone who is targeting me way too much then is normal. Nat says I anatagonise her all the time, its probably why, but I can just imagine her freaking out big time and its worth the laugh

[Sydney Wheeler]

Hummm, well I do suppose Yul would reign from the sidelines and still have a big hand in the game

and Karma may have had a little help from other sources

[Christa Hastie]

I think I was his first Victim..... then he had the nerve to ask me again....... shameful

[Randy Bailey]

I got both Erik and Christa by tricking you guys
