There hasn't been too much to report lately. Everything is still going a lot smoother than I expected at F10. A lot of these people honestly don't even seem to be trying that hard in this game. Like even JFP last round didn't seem to try to hard to get the numbers on his side. I guess he did approach PG to try and get out Coach, but PG just went back to Coach and so an explosion occurred between Coach and JFP. Aside from that though, doesn't seem like people who are on the outs (I think) are trying too hard. We full out lied to Amber and Jason at the F12 vote and they still somehow are complacent and trust us. I don't really get it. They don't seem to be trying to form alliances or do anything to ensure they stay long term. I may have forgotten to mention this, but it was kind of funny at the beginning of last round because almost right after Rupert was voted out, Amber started trying to strongly enforce an Abi vote out the next round and it's like alol. You just voted in the minority while Abi didn't, I don't think you should be trying to call the shots right now. It's so funny to me because Amber acts like she has so much power in this game when in reality, she has little to none and is probably going to be voted out very soon. Although Coach told me that Amber told him that she thinks I have an idol and that is a little worrisome. If people start thinking I have an idol, then I may have to use it sooner rather than later. I'm hoping not to get voted out with it, I would much rather waste it (although I don't like that idea either). I think I do have enough eyes and ears though that I would hear about it if people were targeting me. It would have to be a massive blindside and probably blindsiding several allies of mine as well for it to work. Having this idol is both a blessing and a curse because on one hand, it could be a very useful tool for propelling myself further in the game, but it also puts a burden on my shoulders about how to use it. Who do I tell? Who do I keep it a secret from? When do I use it? Do I keep it for myself or use it for an ally of mine? This idol poses a lot of difficult questions about how to use it to it's full potential.
In other news Coach approached me telling me that he would love to go to finals with him, That is good and bad because on the good side, I doubt he would try to vote me out soon right after telling me that because who says that to someone and then votes them out immediately? No one unless they want to make jurors bitter at them. The bad news is that Coach may feel as if I betrayed him if I vote him out sooner than that and I am a little wary of Coach. So we formed this 4 person alliance with PG, Eliza, myself, and him and I thought it was tight and might ride to the F4. Now, whenever I speak to Coach, all he can talk about is getting to the six (the six that voted Rupert which are myself, Eliza, Coach, PG, Abi, and Baylor) and that we'll figure out what to do from there. That makes me think he isn't too keen on taking us to the F4 because he's more focused on the six of us rather than the core four. I also think he's getting too close to Abi and that's not a problem for now, but it could become one down the line. We might have to think about splitting them at 6 or maybe even 7. Especially if they get some strange idea in their head, that turning everything around and voting Eliza, myself, PG, or Baylor would be a good idea. They flipped once, so who's to say they won't do it again?
PG also told me that Amber mentioned Eliza wanting to target Coach and Abi ASAP. This is probably just Amber putting words in people's mouths like she does so often, but if Eliza is actually wanting to target Coach and Abi prematurely then it could be disastrous. We can't have our alliance of 6 break up yet, because we need each other to survive in this game. I think Eliza is smart enough to realize that though. She would have to be out of her mind to actually be wanting to target them this early. And why go to Amber rather than PG? Or even myself? PG and I are probably closer to her than we are to Coach and Abi. Luckily, it's easier to keep the six intact than I originally thought it would because like I said, not many others seem to be trying too hard. JFP seemed to actually be playing the game, but now that he's gone I feel like Rob and Corinne feel kind of lost and don't know what to do. And Amber and Jason are just blindly following the Fuji people which they should have realized was a bad idea once we lied to them about the Rupert vote. No one seems to be trying to get people to flip or coming up with clever arguments for people of the six to do just that. I'm not even sure if many people outside of the six know there is a six person alliance.
As a side note, I'm also happy that I get to be a rainbow when I'm voted out (based on past seasons) as opposed to black and white. Hopefully I make it to the end and get to remain fully colored, but rainbow is much better than black and white!
