Tonight, I think I made some considerable process towards securing my safety in the game for a while.
I talked to Zander a lot tonight, and he agreed that it would be wise for us to work together. We seem to have established some trust for now. For some reason, I get the sneaky vibe from him still, so while he may think I trust him fully, there's no way in hell I'm putting too much faith in him yet. I am still covering my ass right now. Zander told me that he thinks most people are worried about Mike&Robbie, and me&Erin as pairs, so that's something to keep in mind. He said he doesn't want either me or Erin out, so that's good, but I'm curious to know if others are actually expressing concerns, or if he's just trying to make us think we need him. It's a lot to think about, for sure.
Next, Scott and I got some quality talking time in. He was telling me about how he volunteers for GTLB (I can't remember the name) but it's a Gay-Lesbian youth mentoring or teen program. I think it's really cool he is involved with that, and it shows he has a big heart. I actually volunteer for Big Brothers Big Sisters, so it's cool we have that connection. Erin told me that Scott mentioned wanting Zander out of the game, which is ironic because Zander told us him and Scott don't really have any bad history. Either Zander is scared of Scott and trying to prevent it from becoming a Zander-Scott battle, or they are secretly working together. We'll have to see about that.
Finally, Megan and I got a chance to chat, and I think it went really well. Although she didn't bring up the me-her-Taylor-Erin alliance, Taylor and I talked about it earlier and I think we are set. I think my conversations with Megan are always nice, and I think she's a cool girl. It was funny because she told me my avatar and other photo don't look alike, so I'm wondering if she thinks I'm an alias! Lol! Yeah, you guys got me, I'm totally FAKE. =P
The key common theme to each game-related conversation with these people was that they all agreed Mike and/or Robbie should be the person to go at the next tribal council. Scott was leaning way Mike, and the others seemed cool with whoever. We all brought up the fact that Mike and Robbie are inseperable, boring as hell, and that we're sick of hearing about Robbie's fuckin Lost and Star Trek games. WE DO NOT WANT TO PLAY. GTFO. KTHX.
As of now, my plan is to vote Mike out at the first tribal council along with the majority. I think we'll be able to get Jessica to vote with us too, and that's all we'd need if everyone else goes with Mike as well. I don't want to be the ringleader going around to get everyone onboard because I don't want the retaliation attempt to go against me. Hopefully Zander or someone like that will step up and make it happen. It would be nice to win immunity, but I think I should be okay without it unless something totally crazy happens, which you can never count out in Survivor. =)

Alright, so this will be an attempt to give a breakdown of everything that happened from when results were posted till now!
So, when we found out that Jessica won the challenge, I knew it would only be a matter of time until everyone started freaking out about the vote. And sure enough, it turned into more of a mess than I expected. At first, several people were talking and seemed to be agreeing that Mike would be voted out. Taylor, Megan, Erin, and me all got into a chat and discussed everything we were hearing, which was a huge help. I don't think anyone else knew we were all sharing information, so it worked out well. For getting Mike out, we knew we had the 4 of us, Zander, Scott, and Jessica solid, so it wouldn't have been a problem. Then, out of nowhere, a lot of people started wondering if maybe we should take out Klein instead, who is just really sketchy and suspicious all the time. At first, I didn't like this idea because it didn't make sense to shake things up when we already had an easy majority, but the more I heard their ideas, the more I wanted to go with Klein as well. Klein admitted to Erin's face that he wanted to target the friends pairs. I'm not sure if he even realized who he was talking to, but what a dumbass! Jessica then told me she felt happier voting Klein out instead of Mike, and with the help of Mike/Robbie themselves, we have a majority to vote out Klein.
Taylor, Megan, and Erin kept telling me how Klein and Mike were talking to them, but neither was saying a word to me until all the sudden at almost the exact same second, they messaged me! It was a big lol. Both told me they knew they were in trouble, and were hoping I'd help them out. By this time, I knew we decided to vote Klein, so I basically told him straight up I just didn't know if I could trust him. He asked what he did wrong and I told him he immediately threatened me by saying he wanted friends out. THEN, to make it even more hilarious, he flipped the fuck out and started claiming he never said that. Right, like Erin would EVER lie to me? Are you crazy? Klein started telling me Scott was the one feeling that way, and then was like "HERE LOOK AT MY CONFESSIONAL! I'M NOT LYING!" And he posted me this...
"Klein": where do i start? hi so im super excited after 5 times applying i made it . me zander and scotty already have an alliance, so people will be shocked that 2 "enemies" will be working together. scotty wants to take out all the best friends first, i guess ill goalong because i dont want him to stab me in the back :S.
... So! Now I know that Scott and Zander are full of shit with saying they want each other out. I asked Zander flat out to his face is he had an alliance with Klein, and he avoided the question, so I lost a lot of trust in him as well. Something tells me Scott was sort of half-hearting his alliance with these guys because I WANT to believe he was sorta gonna be with me and Erin, but I don't think I can really trust him either now unless he proves to be more trustworthy. I shared this piece of Klein's confessional with Taylor, Megan, and Erin, and it made us all realize how desperately we do really need to stick together in this game, in the midst of other alliances already forming like crazy. Oh, I also told Klein I thought he was an alias and there's no way he is some 13 year old kid, and he just was like "I AM :S" hahaha.
As of right now, I already voted for Klein and we should have the majority. Zander and Scott are idiots if they don't just vote with the majority, but if they choose not to, they'll have to deal with the consequences, and that's their problem. One last point to mention is that when Mike was basically begging me to help save him, I told him I'd only do it if he swore to not come after me in the game, and he agreed, then asked if I'd just make an alliance with him! Yeah, I want an alliance with the dude who doesn't talk to anyone, is a big bitch all the time, and has the entire game already practically against him? Sure... Of course I agreed to it so he won't be after me, but I still want him gone soooo bad. Hopefully right after Klein if we can count on some of the other guys to be loyal.
Overall, looking at this round, I think I've done an excellent job sticking to my strategy. I kept my mouth shut, yet still managed to get some good quality time in talking with the other players. I didn't win the challenge (so no one can say I'm a huge threat for that) and everyone else sorta led the charge for this vote, while I pushed my opinions in a more passive, quiet way. Erin and I are basically the swing votes because both sides want us to vote with them, so we are in a fantastic position. As far as I know, barring some amazingly brilliant move by all these other players, I am safe and shouldn't be in any kind of danger anytime soon. Feels nice. =)
