Round 13: The Dragon SlayerHis back's against the wall. Can Dom Ozzy his way to the end? I haven't talked much about AJ in my confessional. She's adorable, but I tend to not have many thoughts about her strategically. Knox says we have to vote her out because people will vote for her to win because she's seen as the leader of this alliance. IDK, like, I like AJ, but I guess I don't get it? I haven't really seen AJ make any decisions in this game, at best she's just involved in group conversations. This isn't to put her down, but I don't really see her as much of a group leader. I think our group was called "Team AJ," but I consider mostly a figurehead... I mean, she's super nice.... but like the Queen she doesn't hold much power, in my opinion.

I had another conflict that led to a skype call with Dom today. Between our talk and his thing with Thiago on the results thread it comes across like he's just trying to pick a fight. It's really awkward when 5 people in a group can get along and 1 person is constantly confrontational. You don't want to gang up on that person, but the whole thing is honestly just very off-putting. Dom tries to constantly twist my words to make it seem like I'm trying to attack him to fit his victim narrative, but I'm not someone who allows people to be passive aggressive towards me. Even if it makes the situation worse at the moment while we get aggressive with each other, it resolves the conflict and sets the precedent that it's not something I stand for. I did lie to Dom once near the end of the conversation. He referenced, jokingly, about an image Selena made for the jury house involving us and dogs or something like that. There was a strong implication that the jury house is loving bashing on us. Misery loves company, as they say. That's really, really disappointing. First, I don't find it fair that Dom talks to them still, but what can ya do about that. Second, I think it's just really disappointing when you kinda realize people are prolly bashing you off somewhere else. Sorry Dominic, I lied when I said I wasn't disappointed in you. |

Dominic pointed out to me how some people were upset with the 5th, 6th, 7th vote. I honestly didn't mean it in a negative way, but I quickly apologized and I see their point. Totally wasn't my intent to upset someone. That being said, Ben... your exit wasn't very classy, and I wasn't happy about how you closed out the round. Be better than your haters, even when you feel that hater is me. |

It's time for the connectivity challenge! I participated and won a similar version of this comp in Season 2, and I'm going to make sure I'm prepared to win it again this season. I'm doing full out research on everyone in this game before I attempt the comp. |

DAMN IT!!!!! I wanted to win this one. *Sigh* I got Cassie and Chase confused because they're similar and they were both on NuProellia. I let this comp out of my reach. Thankfully Cassie won it, and Dom did not.

Even though Dom seems like the obvious choice to vote off, I'm obviously gonna be keeping my eye on everyone to make sure no one is gonna try to blindside me.
I'm not sure it would be a good idea to ask Knox or Thiago for their idol. Like, it would ensure my safety, but it could make people nervous. That being said, if anyone is gonna be blindsided, it's gonna be me. So if they are serious about wanting me to stick around, I dunno, I'd offer my idol to them. I feel a bit like Denise from the real show.

This morning in a sleepy stupor I posted in the judgement thread revising my answer. I didn't mean for it to cause such a buzz! Thiago used my statement to take another jab at Dominic, and then Dom went off on him. What's Thiago getting at, here? He's been picking a lot of fights. I can't tell if Thiago is just burnt out from playing 2 seasons in a row and so he's snappy or if this is a strategic decision. I guess we'll see.
