King of Anything

[knox]

I have decided that I am not going to play other people's game anymore. I am here to do my thing not to be viewed as a follower. It's gonna be a hard sell if I make finals but that's why I need to do my thing.

Sure, this round I am voting out Chad despite not wanting to. But next round either we start doing what I want or I am turning to the Favorites, assuming we win the tiebreaker.

Quite frankly I would have turned this round but the Favorites are targeting my boy Nark who I won't allow to leave. There's still some loyalty. If they had done Bree or Starr they would have had the numbers, but they decided they didn't want to trust a fan (me) or at least Ben said so and now we are gonna go into a tiebreaker.

I don't even care. The Favorites treat me like a second class citizen and I am very much over it. I might not have been the best player out there with Thiago calling me inactive is going overboard. And I won't allow for such behavior. He will okay soon.

My relationship with Gloria is mostly out of information and a desire to work together but it doesn't go much over that. Eventually though I know we would make a dynamic duo.

At least she treats me with respect, which is far more than I can say for my fan allies. Ridiculous. I cannot even talk to then without them being all almighty about everything.

I mean I know I have played stupid, but I am not and as soon as my desires start being denied and when I care things will change. I'm gonna go into spoiled brat mode!

Currently talking to Glo seeing if we can save both Mark and Chad and kick out Bree in a 4-4-4 tie with Glo using her idol on Chad. Strategizing bonanza ahead!

This has no formatting cause I'm on my iPod but I had such strong feelings about it all that I wanted to post a conf.

Chad went home and Mark had an idol... which comes as a surprise to me. After he said it was me, him, and Zac as the final three you would think that total disclosure would come in handy.

But no, he kept it to himself. I am sure Thiago knew as besides me he was the only one who knew Mark was a target and I didn't say shit.

Honestly I feel like they just keep alienating me further and further. Every decision just runs me the wrong way and I don't know if I have a reason or its just because I'm annoyed at them.

All I know is that I am now a free agent. I am doing me and they can do whatever. I'll make sure Gloria is not a target and I'll make one of the other girls take the fall.

My first three targets are Carly, Bree and Starr, in no particular order. Then Taylor or maybe Thiago since he is such a huge threat. Either way, I cannot wait to be back home in a computer and strategize hardcore.

Oh and get the answers I deserve

“You know how I get…”[/font]

[/center]

It’s funny how things change in this game, but isn’t that what is so amazing about Survivor? This coming round and the next are what are going to shape up the rest of the game, and I feel like I’m in the prime position to make things happen.

The favorites need someone, a hero, to give them their numbers. And that person could be me, if I feel comfortable enough. The fans think they have me, a loyal goat who just does whatever they want and who has zero input, and according to them has not played the game whatsoever.

Little do they know, when you mess with the goat, you get the horns. Have you ever seen a goat pissed off? Yeah, you don’t want to get on their bad side, and every single thing that these fools say pushes me further and further into going from a goat to a hero. It seems like such a logical decision, but my hesitation comes that Gloria admitted Ben said I was boring and Taylor/Liam barely talk to me, then apparently there is someone called Carly playing the game.

For the fans, I am just barely there. I am a non factor, for the favorites, I could be a great asset. The question is, would I rather risk being Denise’d out of the game by going with the favorites, or would I pull a SP Cochran and go out like him?

Mark played an idol last time, you know who knew about it? Starr. Not me, not Zac, Starr did. Then they shared the information with everyone, and you know who was the one to tell me what happened? The truth? Bree. Out of everyone, the person who I have been bashing and hating on since the beginning of the game is the one who kept me in the loop. Isn’t that insane?

Not Thiago, not Zac, not Mark. Bree. I find it humorous, to say the least.

I still want to hear what Mark has to say, but I am beyond baffled by the whole deal. They come and tell me I am a huge part of their alliance, and yet, they tell Starr all the information before me. Yeah, sorry that’s not gonna fly. I’m not stupid, I might play stupid, but I am not. And there is absolutely no way I am going to just let myself be seen as some UTR player. I am not.

Now, the decision is as follows. Do I flip to the favorites this round, or the next? Well, that depends on whether or not the fans do as I say. If they follow through with Carly being the vote, then I’ll be with them. Why vote for such a non-entity? Easy, out of the whole cast she is my biggest wildcard, I know nothing about her cause she is never around, thus meaning that I can actually not trust her. She can do anything. And I’m not going to deal with such high variables. Fuck that.

If they refuse to vote Carly out, then I will see if the favorites will do as I say. Gloria asked me what I needed to flip. I said I needed the favorites to talk to me and make me feel comfortable and that my voice matters. That translates to, have them do what I want. And what I want, is to vote out Thiago. Why? He is the biggest threat. He is smart, he has a close relationship with Gloria, and he called me inactive, so he can suck my inactive dick on his way to the jury.

Bree has shown her worth, and Starr is someone no one likes, so she would easily be taken out at any point. The bitch doesn’t even do challenges! So, Thiago it is. Gloria wants me to make the favorites vote out Liam, then stick with them, and next round make her use her idol on whoever the target is, and while I love that plan as it keeps me in the best spot with everyone. I feel like she would take the whole credit for it, and that makes me once again, a goat. I need to play my game, which includes awful moves people will either hate or respect. Not playing Gloria’s game.

I don’t know where this game is going, but one thing is certain: don’t count me out yet.

[knox]

I am pretty sure this episode is going to be pretty straight forward, Carly is going home. She is borderline inactive and no one really cares for her, furthermore I flat out refused for anyone else to go home, so I didn't give people much choice in the matter. And next round I am gonna test my luck again and decided whom to target.

I kind of want to see how far I can push the fans before they start viewing me as more of a burden than anything. I already have my plan with Gloria, though she wants the votes from the fans to go her way. It's almost annoying, but I am not gonna let her control me, she wants Liam to be a target, which means Liam canNOT be a target, because I need to have some leverage. Not because I don't trust Gloria, but in case I need to do something she doesn't approve it.

Such as voting out Thiago. Who she loves for some reason. And who continues to call me inactive, if only he knew... not because I am not next to my computer all day long does that make me inactive. I am playing the game, just not as out there as everyone else.

I am fine with it, I think if things go my way I can show that I had some control and I made the moves I had to make to win. Such as abandoning a group who didn't appreciate what I had to offer and considered my inactive. After all, had I stayed with them, wouldn't I have proved I was a follower like they said? It makes sense, tho I'm not sure if they would be able to see it over their wounded egos.

Like Rebecca Black said, this game is gonna be:

[knox]

EPISODE XI

[/b]
“All kinds of backstabbing”[/font]

[/center]

This won't be long cause I'm getting drunk, buuuuut anyways. I guess Starr is going this round. I am supposed to vote for Ben with the other fans, but Gloria will use her idol on Ben and then Starr will go home. Which is perfect, cause I don't trust that hoe.

I don't wanna take full credit for the move, but lets be real, without me it wouldn't be possible and I am putting myself in a great position. Now both fans and favorites would trust me and with it being 4 VS 4 then I can be the swing vote. Which means I can start swinging back and forth taking out whoever the fuck I want. They won't unite against me, there is no way!

I can vote Thiago next, then jump back and screw Taylor and Bree. I can take the full control of the game if I play my cards right. Having a final 5 with Zac, Mark, Ben and Goria would be ideal and would let me decide whom I want to place myself in the finals against.

If I play it right, I could very easily win. But that is IF I play it right. There's a lot of game to be played, and there's also the chance that one of the faves will rat me out and I will go home this round, but I feel confident about what's about to go down.

[knox]

EPISODE XII

[/b]
“We are all wondering what you're gonna do!”[/font]

[/center]

I appologize I have been MIA this whole round. My significant other surprised me this weekend and he didn't let me log into the computer at all and it was just basically really annoying. So I'm kind of lost.

Anyways before the intrusion, a lot went down. Right after the votes were revealed, Mark basically told me I had told about the idol. I didn't even lie, to Gloria's dismay, because despite it all I like playing an honest, straight-forwar game. If you ask me something, I will tell you, if you don't then I won't go out of my way to tell you. Anyways, Mark ended finding out that I told on the vote, but he didn't seem all that mad. He said he wishes he would have known to turn with me, buuuut I didn't even turn per-say I simply told them to use the idol and I voted Benjamin.

He said that was true, and told me he wanted to turn with me with the time came. I don't know if he was baiting me or not, something about it just doesn't seem right. But I'll keep it in mind, after all Mark is my boy.

Now, this round. Liam won immunity which is truly whatever. I logged in today and I had seven PM's and two offline IM's. People from both sides asking me what I wanted to do. I guess my warning with the idol and Starr might have made the fans realize it. Or maybe I actually have some power.

Then again theres always the possibility that the fans are trying to make me feel comfortable. Vote for whoever and then vote me out. There is something definitively off about the whole situation.

Thiago and Gloria though, the leaders of each side, are the most paranoid people I know. They both need constant confirmation everything is fine. Gloria seems to think she is always a target or the next one for the fans, which is like "yeah you are an amazing player but you haven't even showed it, so there's no reason for them to target you. So Chill."

And Thiago needs constant reassurance, I don't think Mark told them I am the reason that the idol got played, because of the way people are talking to me. Which might mean he is willing to flip with me.

This round the decision is between gettng rid of Thiago or Taylor. Taylor bothers me because he doesn't talk to me, and like I said with Carly, someone who doesn't talk to me cannot do my bidding, which basically means they have nothing to offer to me, they become wildcards and could start a revolution against me. Thiago is a huge, huge threat, not only challenge-wise, but socially and strategically, and he might have an idol so it would be smart to try and flush it when he doesn't suspect it at all.

Bree is another of my soon targets, because she talks shit all the time and apparently is pissed everyone wants to do what I want. But no one really likes her, so she is not that big of a deal in general as I don't see her being able t rally anything at any point in time EVER.

The fans all said they heard I want Taylor out and they wanna do that. The favorites all want Bree or Thiago, which is basically what I want. So, my decision is do I go with the favs and take out threats, or go with the fans and get someone who is a wildcard for my game out, then flip to the favs next round and kick out threats? The thing is, it could tie, unless Mark actually flips.

I guess I have to talk to Mark. I hate putting so much power on him, but I can't make this decision lightly.

[knox]

Thiago (gvse5thiago) is available 3:53 pm
Online: 1d 5h 30m

Thiago 3:53 pm
hey dude

Knox O Pompillio 4:04 pm
hey

Thiago 4:04 pm
i'm glad to see you didn't die
sorry your weekend has been so crappy

Knox O Pompillio 4:05 pm
its alright, shit happens, thanks for worrying about me, how was yours?

Thiago 4:05 pm
so far so good!
long weekend up here in canada h
i had food poisoning last night though... thought of you h

Knox O Pompillio 4:07 pm
lmfao sounds awful

Thiago 4:07 pm
":

Knox O Pompillio 4:08 pm
are you better now?

Thiago 4:08 pm
yeah actually i feel totally fine

Thiago 4:09 pm
it was like a couple of.. intense hours... and then i woke up feeling fantastic
it was really strange
but based on the timing after eating, i knew it had to be food poisoning. oh well it's done now

Knox O Pompillio 4:09 pm
damn
well, glad thats done and over with tho

Thiago 4:10 pm
yeah me too
so you didn't respond to a lot of what i had sent you
so i wanted to pick your brain a bit

Thiago 4:11 pm
i just want to have an idea of what direction we're going, the numbers are dwindling

Knox O Pompillio 4:12 pm
sorry, I am thinking we should do Taylor, he is not even playing the game so its not fair for the rest of us to have to worry about anything while he skates by

Thiago 4:12 pm
no no
not that

Thiago 4:13 pm
i had mentioned getting rid of bree before all the faves..
i wasn't sure how you felt about that

Knox O Pompillio 4:13 pm
oh, sorry I read it when I was all over

Thiago 4:13 pm
i know you had said before you weren't totally sure if you want me you mark zac as f4 and i understand that

Knox O Pompillio 4:13 pm
like this round?

Thiago 4:13 pm
no not this round
but sometime soon..

Knox O Pompillio 4:13 pm
so Taylor, then maybe Bree?
I'd be fine with that

Thiago 4:14 pm
that's kind of what i'm thinking

Knox O Pompillio 4:14 pm
I think thats smart

Thiago 4:14 pm
it keeps me you mark and zac in the advantage still

Knox O Pompillio 4:14 pm
cause she can be such a wildcard

Thiago 4:14 pm
and honestly she doesn't deserve it, she could flip anytime
she told me last night she wanted to vote taylor though so i'm not worried now
but gloria was telling me when we were on farrago that she knows who bree is and apparnetly she has a reputation for being a little crazy in the end game

Thiago 4:15 pm
so i'd personally feel more comfortable eliminating the wildcard element
mark had mentioned it before too but we never really got into detail, i know zac doesn't love bree either

Knox O Pompillio 4:16 pm
I honestly would be fine with it, and I think the guys would be too, from what I've talked to them

Thiago 4:16 pm
i think gloria, ben, and liam all deserve it more than her anyway
her and starr really pushed ben last round and look what happened

Knox O Pompillio 4:17 pm
yeah, seriously

Thiago 4:17 pm
have you ever even spoken to taylor? i think the most i've spoken to him was a 2 minute conversation

Knox O Pompillio 4:17 pm
I did for a few a while ago but he has never shown any interest in anything

Thiago 4:18 pm
carly was a great vote, i liked that, i wish we kept it rolling and voted taylor last round, but i was at work pretty much all day and i guess they got to make the decision

Knox O Pompillio 4:18 pm
I wanted Taylor out too, but somehow it became Ben, so whatever

Thiago 4:18 pm
ben had told me he wanted to vote bree, so i think bree knows she has to vote with us this round or she's toast

Knox O Pompillio 4:19 pm
good, that should make it easier

Thiago 4:19 pm
but that would make it 5 fans 3 faves, so booting bree would be really easy next round. at final 7 we would still be up 4 to 3

Thiago 4:20 pm
i think that would be a really deserving f7 if you ask me. we can discuss then what we want to do although my preference still remains the reliquum 4 guys as f4

Knox O Pompillio 4:21 pm
I agree 100%
we are all deserving at that point so it would be a great endgame regardless

Thiago 4:22 pm
obviously we can discuss what we want to do at that point

Knox O Pompillio 4:24 pm
Sounds like a good plan to me

Figured this conversation was pretty relevant. Bascially, Thiago doesn't realize it, but by voting out Taylor this round and Bree the next, he is playing right into my hand. Not only is he doing what I want him to do, and my plans, but at 7 I have a very easy way to get rid of him and get my end game on the right path. This is way too perfect, as long as Bree doesn't win immunity next round I will get to do everything I need and it would all be amazing and basically paved for me and I will come looking great. I am really happy and confident with this plan now, and I don't even have to rely on Mark flipping or not. I can just do my thing until I can take full charge and it keeps people thinking I'm not a threat or controlling the game as much as I think I am.

Loving it.[/b]

[knox]

Gloria just told me she has two idols, and since she doesn't understand and like the plan she is gonna idol Taylor. Which actually pisses me off, I understand she is playing the game but the fact that after I laid the plan out for her, which guarantees her f5 and she would still have two idols... its just stupid.

I am trying to play logical with her so she won't waste the idol on Taylor, but she is being as stubborn as ever. Part of me wants to just change the vote and vote her out for not doing what is smart and just almost threatening me with the stupid things. But I know she would take it personal, as this game means a lot to her, so that's what is stopping me.

I wish Liam wasn't immune so I could turn the target, because I feel like Ben is gonna come in handy later on. Then again, he is pretty much Gloria's lackey. I wonder if that would be beneficial, to get rid of him... hm... it would be a good slap in the wrist for her. To be absolutely honest. But I need to think of my endgame.

I am just mad I told her who the vote was for and now she can ruin everything I have been working for because she doesn't understand how easy it would be for her to make final 5 with my plan. She doesn't even have to vote for Taylor, just know its coming...

I guess I have some pondering to do, too bad no one is around to see if they'd be willing to change the vote with such short notice.

[knox]

So much last minute scramble going on, if I wasn't so focussed on getting everything settled I would write a confessional. Drama, at last! Liam just shot himself in the foot. Someone please harrass me later about writing a conf about what went down if I don't have it up by midnight.

You guys need to hear this.
Back to the battlefield I go now <3

[knox]

Storing this hear in case I decide to make the thread:
I thought it would be nice to make a thread where we could all share out favorite memories about Liam.

My favorite:
Liam trying to tell everyone I am a mastermind of the game and I am plotting to take them out. Then backtracking and saying that I am actually trying to take someone else out. Then deciding that I actually want to take said person to the Final Three with me because I can beat them. Then basically admitting that he is trying to create chaos because he is in a bad spot.

What are your favorite Liam memories?

Also, it serves as a spoiler.

EPISODE XII

[/b]
“We are all wondering what you’re gonna do!”[/font]

[/center]

Man, shit has officially hit the fan. At last! We have to thank to possibly the worst player in the whole game: Liam. He just raised a storm that not only fucked him over but everyone else around him. Gloria and Ben are going down with him, which is a pity, but he literally just did the most bonehead move anyone could have ever imagined.

Basically he approached Thiago and not only tried to sell me out, but Mark, who has never truly confirmed he wanted to flip the script and go against the fans. How did Liam become a favorite again?

Liam laid it all out, he said I was gonna flip and vote him out this round and how this was his chance to make things work by flipping and saving Taylor. The thing is… he got it all wrong. First of, why would anyone want to save Taylor? It’s not worth it, he played his hand too soon. Funny enough, he said I played my hand too soon and that is why he is being able to sink me. Anyways, not only that but he really underestimated my relationship with Thiago, who firmly believed it was a lie. I didn’t even have to do anything, my social game with him has been SO strong that he came up with his own theories and denied the whole thing Liam was trying to create BEFORE he shared the story with me.

Apparently Starr told him that she told the favs about the vote being Ben, which is interesting cause I guess we both did it. But Thiago is convinced that’s how it went down, I am completely innocent and Liam is just trying to cause drama with “bad lies”. I have neither denied nor confirmed anything, I mean I am not going to be an idiot and correct the story when he is not asking me directly. I am not gonna lie either, but can you blame me for just letting him think he is right?

The only thing I said is that I wasn’t going to vote out Thiago this round, or the next one, which is true as the plan has been Taylor, then Bree for a while now. So, I am not even lying. I considered doing Thiago, sure, but I don’t think I ever intended to do such a thing. So, oops2Liam. He got his story messed up.

Furthermore, Liam fucked up because he kept changing the story and adding all kinds of theories. Then Ben decided to have “honest time” and confirm that Liam was saying the truth, but Thiago thought it was all a lie, damn… Ben told Mark some stuff as well about how I was supposed to flip, but Mark is chill and didn’t even get bothered by it since I’ve been honest with him.

According to Liam though I have been masterminding the whole game, which is a good sign cause that means people might vote for me at the end. Whatever.

Anyways, basically Liam tried to raise Hell and now there is no way I can trust him or Ben, so I am not going to be flip flopping all over the place. The plan is as follows: Taylor, Bree, then Liam and Thiago or Ben afterwards. I love Thiago, especially after what happened but I view him as such a threat, him and Mark both. So, it’s gonna be a decision, but Liam has definitively started to bleep in my radar.

Lets just put it this way, if he wasn’t immune I would have turned the vote on him, because he is a bitch and it would have been super lulz.

I feel like there's more, but I need a nap bad.

[knox]

I'M PISSED OFF[/B]
And the more these people talk to me and tell me how it's all going to be okay, the more pissed I get. How can they say that? Are they fucking kidding me? They blindsided me on the vote. Not only that but Gloria trusted me, and now she is gone. This is fucking stupid, I know how much the game meant to her, and she is screwed because of me, and because Liam fucked it all up.

I hate him. I fucking absolutely hate him.
I want to sucker punch him SO hard.
I can't even...

[knox]

EPISODE XIV

[/b]
“You sure he doesn’t have it?”[/font]

[/center]

Basically these last two rounds have been tainted by the sudden crisis in my persona life. I’m not going to bore you guys with what it was or anything, because chances are none of you guys really care. So let’s talk game instead.

Last round Gloria went home, and my whole plan crumbled down. I was so busy with my shit that I didn’t know it was happening, it was super last minute because Gloria targeted Mark or some shit. But I am both sad and pissed that she went home, she trusted me and followed my plan and she was supposed to make it far. I let her down. And that sucks, that was my best friend and she got fucked over, and she left with an idol in her pocket.

This round people were bitching so much about the live challenge, live Tribal Council and the fact we got questions. But honestly I loved it, it keeps things fresh and it’s always far more exciting. I have a weird feeling though, when it comes to the vote.

Liam should be going, but people are getting paranoid that he has an idol. I already told them that Gloria had the idol, which might come back to haunt me if they put two and two together, but I am not sure if they will. I’m starting to feel once again as the ugly duckling left out of all the scheming. No one had been talking to me until I told Mark no one was answering. Then everyone talked. Weiiiiird.

But I don’t know if I wanna be paranoid enough to say it’s me, especially after my UTRN edit last episode. Whatever, I have to trust on this guys because I literally have nothing else to trust on or do in this game. With Gloria out of the picture I am pretty much chained to the idea of the Bromance going F4. I guess that’s alright, since I like them but I don’t know how my odds look at that point.

Also, quick shout out at Ben, who basically voted Gloria out by backing Liam up. No respect, seriously, Gloria did everything for him. He is so UTR it’s not even funny. Also, Zac is getting on my nerves, he uses the smilie and he complains all the time or says things that are just like “Ugh, shut up, don’t treat me like IDK what’s going on, I am far more active than you.”

[knox]

FINAL WORDS

[/b][/font]

[/center]

LMFAO wow, karma or what?

I mean I can't say I am too surprised, I literally had a bad feeling cause people were not talking like they normally do. Somehow Liam and Ben must have pulled some big thing, good on them, really.

I am not bitter, I am not happy either. They played the player, it is part of the game. I made it much farther than I thought I would and a lot more than most people probably did. I went from being tagged inactive, to being the King to getting the fuck out.

It's kinda funny, because I predicted it before the season. I wanted to be a mega douche with the most lulz fall and vote out, and it happened. So, it's ironic, just when I was at my douchiest, I fall from grace and I find myself with the other jurors.

But hey, I made the jury and that makes me very happy. I guess things happen for a reason. Now I get to go party with Gloria and the others at the Jury Lodge. woot woot!

Great game, thanks for letting me play and if someone was rootng for me, thanks for that too <3
