God dammit.
We have to vote Carly, because of Knox. Really now. She's INACTIVE. She DOESN'T DO ANYTHING. She is a WASTE OF OXYGEN. Why do we have to waste THIS vote on her? We have bigger fish to fry. Say... Ben. Or Liam. Really now. One of them is more likely to have an idol. Will they waste it on a waste of space? Or will they play it on themselves, thinking we're out to get another threat?
Really, the plan was to vote out Ben this round, then Carly next round as the easy waste of a vote. We wanted to make it look like we'd keep the fodder around and get rid of the threats. Carly is fodder. She is INACTIVE, for crying out loud!
So, in the end, this makes me want to vote Knox out. Not now, obviously. We need him now. But in two rounds, we won't. So here's the plan: We're going to get Liam and company to vote Knox out next round. We're going to play to them like we're not one big happy family, to lull them into a false sense of security.
Here's the plan as I am proposing it to Thiago, taking everything into account:
Fleur Du 9:34 pm
I also am thinking that we should vote Knox off in the next two rounds
Thiago 9:39 pm
why do you think so
Fleur Du 9:42 pm
He's trying to dictate what we should do right now
I think he might realize that we wanted to take out a threat before Carly
Thiago 9:42 pm
yeah that is what it seems
Fleur Du 9:42 pm
And he may try and flip with Zac
The best move for him is to vote with us the next two rounds, then flip at the final 9 and 5-4 vote out Starr
Thiago 9:45 pm
wow
i didn't even think about that possiblity
Fleur Du 9:46 pm
That's why I am worried.
If we take out Knox in 10th
He won't be able to do that
Thiago 9:47 pm
that's a really smart idea
Fleur Du 9:47 pm
We take Carly out now, then blindside Knox next round
We will get Liam and Ben to vote with us
and Taylor and Gloria by association
Thiago 9:48 pm
right
Fleur Du 9:48 pm
We need to evaluate how close Zac and Knox are, however
That's the one problem: Zac
If we take Knox out too soon
Then we're in trouble
Zac may flip and... 5-4 us anyway
Fleur Du 9:49 pm
That wouldn't be his best move, because he'd 100% be fifth with them, but he wouldn't 100% be with us
That's what makes this an incredibly risky maneuver
Thiago 9:57 pm
what about zac flipping at F9
there would be 5 fans 4 favorites
Fleur Du 9:58 pm
Yeah, that's the biggest risk
We might have to wait until the F9 to take Knox out
Maybe offer a final six deal with Liam and Ben, voting out Gloria next round?
Thiago 9:58 pm
yeah this will be tricky
i dont see how zac would flip though given he hasnt spoken to any favorite really
Fleur Du 9:59 pm
Is he close to Knox, though? That's what I want to know. Were they running the show on Reliquum after we sacrificed?
Thiago 10:00 pm
yeah i really have no clue
Fleur Du 10:00 pm
They got out two big threats
Thiago 10:00 pm
i thought the next two boots would have been knox/zac, not julian/gabe
Fleur Du 10:00 pm
I found out who both Julian and Gabe were
Chances are they had a deal, knowing the two of them
Am I going to do this? We'll see. I need to get a feel for Zac first, before I make a decision. We may have to take out Gloria or Taylor next week, before Knox. Then we can offer an F6 deal to Liam, Ben, and Glo/Tay at the F9 to vote out Knox, Zac, and Mark - in that order, mind you. Then, we throw the F7 immunity to Mark, then the four of us vote out Liam. It's perfect, really... if it can happen. That's the thing here: It probably won't. Gotta adapt.
So when it comes down to it, it's a round-by-round decision. We need to gauge how much Zac trusts Knox. The more I think about it, the more I think we need to wait until the final 9 to make that deal with Liam. That will be a big move, and this game needs big moves. I need to make the right big move at the right time to win, do I not?
