This was a pretty quick round so I definitely need to get this up.
As of now, the vote should be for Ben.
After the challenge last night, all of the fans sans Knox got together and hashed out the vote. Bree wanted Gloria out because Gloria bitched out Bree for lying and saying the vote was Ben last round when it was Carly. I had told Bree to do that and I'm glad it has caused a rift between the two. The two already were hesitant of one another so I'm glad it's now actually a rivalry.
I know Starr wanted Liam around, Bree wanted Gloria out, Mark and I wanted Ben out, Zac didn't care.
I reminded everyone that Gloria is still unable to play in immunity so it doesn't make sense to vote her off. Realistically, I just want Gloria around because we have a close bond, I think, and I'd like to keep her around since no one--not even Mark-- knows how close we are. Gloria is no longer a boot candidate.
I personally would love to see Taylor or Liam go because I don't talk to them at all. However, Ben is scary strong in challenges and I think we all realized that. Bree proved she's a threat and now Mark wants her gone soon.
Bree spoke with Knox late last night about the vote and he was "ok" about it being Ben. I think he would have preferred Taylor or Liam go. Of course Knox gives a stupidly suspicious Judgment answer about flipping and everyone freaks out. I don't see why Knox would flip, given it would ruin his game, and he doesn't have the numbers to do it unless there's some crazy apple up his ass.
I had to be really stern with Bree because now she wants to vote off Knox! I don't want a fan going yet, I like the direction the game is going. I don't think she liked the way I shot her down but Bree was being stupid. If Knox is going to flip, how is voting him going to help? There are too many "what ifs" and if Knox flips, who cares, he sucks in challenges anyway because he doesn't attend. Changing the vote for Knox made no sense and Bree is thinking emotionally.
We'll see what happens if Knox decides to pull something. I tried to tell Ben I hope it isn't him but that the power isn't really in my hands. Much like Carly I build somewhat of a friendly bond with him and I hope it pays off if I'm in the finals. This is another reason I would like Taylor and Liam around more because I don't have a bond yet that will help me if they're on the jury. I need them to have a reason to vote for me before I send them packing.
I think the next couple rounds will be VERY interesting. Bree, Mark, Knox, and Starr are all dying to make moves and it'll get messy. I know it's not interesting the way I'm playing, but I'd rather monitor the flow of strategy rather than force it in any direction. This makes me appear less aggressive and less guilty, yet it's still clever because, being one of the most well-informed people in the game, I can always make decisions with almost all the pieces of the puzzle. I just need to sit back and let people present their plans to me and I will not commit to any of them. I will simply make the decision that benefits me the best. There's not much else you can do now: I'm in it to win it.
