You've heard the seed parable in Mark chapter 4 haven't you? Well that's what I feel like. The seed heard the word, but the cares of the world were more enticing, so the world choked the word out, rendering it unfruitful.
I heard the word going into this game. Ben was well connected; Dominic was a snake. But I ignored both those signs because it would be enticing to play this game with both of them. But I can say this right now. Thorns do not cripple me. I will not be choked by the thorns; I want to rip them out by the roots.
And this confessional is subtitled "Dominic Bashing" courtesy of Dominic. He told me to go ahead and bash him like I did Chad last season. And I remember, Dominic trolled my confessional the whole time, no doubt taking notes of how I play. Well played, good sir. Well played. But you know what? Just as I didn't judge Dominic on past confessionals or Morgan's rankings, he can't judge me by mine. Because I will be different, trust.
And he won't see it coming.
I said I wasn't buying all the crap about the House of Ellen. Well I can't help but buy it now. I backed Dominic in a corner to admit that he helped Ellen find the idol with the information that I HAD FOUND. AND that he had told her about mine. I told him that I knew for certain, and he caved. Then I told him he was the one that told me. Just now. So of course, my "mind games" sent him into a tail spin. Exactly what I want. The more I can rattle him, the more off his game he is apt to be. I with the info he gave me, I can do a lot of damage, and I plan to.
Now, I plan to get to some common ground with him. Make him think I've let go. I won't. The only way I will get Dominic is with a knife in his back when he least sees it coming.
How's that for Dominic bashing?
Now to coordinate this challenge. If we can coordinate it to keep Ellen and Ben from individual immunity. It will be tricky, but I think we can do it.
You know, it really sucks to come into a game and because you haven't been around for a year, and haven't been skyping strategy for months leading up to this game, that you can't get ahead.
I'm sorry, conspiracy theory or not, Luca has been protected every round since round one. And Ellen has her minions reporting back to her...Ben, Dominic, Luca...Selena doing all the dirty work, and Colleen just sitting there looking pretty. I should remind them of Marquesas. You don't flex your muscles before you are completely safe. Dumb game play. Unnecessary ruthlessness. Young, vapid kids, wanting to be the top of the strategic world. I hope it bites them all on sheer principle.
And I hope I get to be the one to bite them.

Now this also rides on Wendy being able to do 143 bricks, and let's face it....those are some bad odds. But I gave her the lowest end so there's less of a chance that she'll step on any of us and foil the plans.
