Round 9: Shy Winner THE MERGE Because of this series, and idol hunting, I've become obsessed with anagrams. "Shy Winner" is an anagram of "Henry Wins." I think I need to be kinda shy right now. Lots of people are playing hard, playing emotionally. If I can just be a good guy and listen to people bitch, I think I can avoid coming in 10th or 9th now that were merged. This is the point I turned things down last season, and that worked for me well. In Survivor and the bedroom, you never wanna peak too early

Dom always accuses me of lying to him, despite the fact that I'm typically not when he makes these accusations. In return for always putting me through this, I did tell Dom one lie tonight..... I told him I wasn't going to post this.
[Ryann] Dominic GVSE: (1:05:23 AM) im into beastiality, obvs.

I'm hawking the board today. Since Thaigo played an idol at the last TC, I have to suspect that one is going to be rehidden in our merge tribe today.

When I learned of Thaigo's idol, and found out that he correctly played it, one of the first things that I thought of was that Dom was going to assume I was totally playing him and that I meant for this to happen. Serendipitous as it was, I think I'll be given more credit for Luca going than is actually deserved. I mentioned last round how Dom gave me his BB live feeds password. In addition to the times I've enjoyed them, the feeds act as a way for me to know where I stand with Dom at all times. Because he's emotional and kind of petty, every time I've pissed him off this week he's logged on and changed the live feed password so I can't watch anymore. Once he's over it, I get access again. It's sorta hilarious because I couldn't care either way. Currently, I do not have live feeds access, so the odds of me making a move to hope into another alliance this round seem slim.

Anyone who knows me knows I love stats and facts. For example, I've already been obsessing about the wiki. Fun fact of the day, Knox was the only person this season to be on every tribe for at least one round!

Have a great trip, Faith! I have no idea if anyone else reads this, so I'm losing out on some much-enjoyed interaction.
Random funny quote of the night: Bill V: (11:42:01 PM) also, whole game is online Bill V: (11:42:03 PM) thats cute Bill V: (11:42:16 PM) all 10 of us should going a google hangout Knox GVSE: (11:42:37 PM) lmfao Knox GVSE: (11:42:46 PM) we would kill each other

Just as I decided to leave for the day, Morgan posted the clues to the idol. Turns out it was the clues from the last idol. Whomp whomp. I made headway when I got home, but Knox told me not to bother because the idol was already gone. I have full faith that Knox and AJ don't have it, but could see Cassie or Thaigo hiding that information. The most likely scenario is that someone from "Team Ellen" got the idol.

I love the new little icons! Everyone's expression kinda reflects how I've viewed them in this game so far. I wonder if they'll be important in the next challenge.

Dominic, I am so, so sorry. I'm going to bust your balls tonight. Hard. But please don't take anything I say personally. I'm going to tell you I'm drunk, then go off on you. The plan is that I want you to think I'm trying to get you to vote for me, thinking I'm getting the idol played on me. You'll hopefully think that then not vote for me, which is what I actually want. I'm going to piss you off and say you're being perceived as a terrible person. You actually kinda do act passive aggressive sometimes, but I'm going to lay it on you way worse than I actually feel... it's just easier to use someone's real insecurities to manipulate them. Sorry dude! but the odds are actually worse to be the one voted for in this scenario. I'm fine with letting you guys think I'm playing the idol AJ holds.

I should just make "Congrats Ellen and Dom!" my signature so that I don't have to constantly be posting it at the conclusion of an IC. haha. I'll admit I didn't give this challenge my all, but it really wasn't up my alley. My alliance got dominated in the comp, but overall this, I think, was a challenge that we all suspected Dom and Ellen might win anyway. I gave my most effort to Part 3 in hopes that I'd win that one, but I didn't even survive that long. I have a lot to say about my convo with Dom tonight, but at this point I'm too sleepy to talk about it. Goodnight!

Being voted for by Team Ellen = You don't have to draw rocks but there's a 1/3 chance they play the idol on someone correctly and you go home.
Not being voted for by Team Ellen = 1/4 shot of pulling a rock if no idols are played correctly.

So last night, I talked to Dom for hours. The convo started as I originally fell into it, blowing up at Dom (the anger was fake on my end) to try and mindfuck him into not voting for me. Who knows if that was at all effective. As the night continued to pass, I hoped on a Skype call with Dom for, like, an hour and the conversation was normal. I don't wanna piss of Dom so bad that he doesn't want to work with me in the future, if I stay. I dunno, it's impossible to determine until results are posted if anything I did was useful or if it was just all pointless. One thing Dom casually referenced a couple times was that someone tells him about Skype calls and suggest that people talk about him. Firstly, I don't go there personally with anyone (but Wendy). It's hard to say if this is something someone actually in our alliance is saying or if it's just something that stems from Dom's paranoia. If I had to guess tho who would be talking to Dom, I'd pick Thaigo. He's easily the best player on "Team AJ" and is the least likely to "go down with the ship" if we start losing numbers.

I believe it was Knox who did that!

I believe it was Knox who did that! You're right! I found out later he did that. It was pretty disappointing to hear he was saying those types of things to Dom.
