Asmat Tribe

Hi So! Here are some quick questions to get you going on your confessionals for this next round, feel free to answer them whenever.

1) How did you feel about the vote and tribal council in general, did you feel like you learned any more or less about your tribe and your dynamics together?

2) So now that you've played the idol, do you feel like your position in the game has changed significantly or not?

3) Could you give us a ranking of all the people left in your tribe based on trustworthiness? Explain to us as well why they rank that way.

Tribal went swell. It also exposed the alliances between Dan, Joe, and Joaquin. I didn't think that method through enough, but I'm glad some good came out of that screw up.

I feel like I'm a target. I feel like Dan, Joaquin, and Joe want me out, maybe Dan wants leadership or something, but I'm forming a counter alliance with the girls and Max.

1. Kelly is my number one--We talk about EVERYTHING. We run the numbers, she is in a fake alliance with Dan, Joe, Joaquin, and Sierra, and is feeding me all the info.
2. Jenn. She is so anti the boys right now it's awesome. I felt more comfortable approaching her about the all girls thing than Sierra, so that is why she is 2.
3. Sierra is wavering between alliances. But I used my idol on her to buy trust. I hope she appreciates that and sees I am willing to work with her.
4. Max--a man of few words, but I feel he is a loyal soldier. WE HAVE TO MOVE WITH A PURPOSE MAX, AND WE HAVE TO DO IT NOW
5. Joe. On my shit list at the moment, but out of the Goldfish trio I feel he is the one I can work with the most, but his bull is so see-through
6. Joaq is a great dude, but he is also see through
7. Danimal. He's about to be road kill.

Could you tell us how that counter alliance with the girls and Max is forming? Walk us through how it happened.

Wigles is talking more than she did in Cambodia. I love that.

Kelly and I had been planning a counter alliance against Dan, Joe, and Joaquin since Saturday. We knew the numbers we needed, we just had no way of getting to them, plus we wanted to wait.

Now that I both played the idol on Sierra, and that Max got a stray vote, I feel everything will come together easier.

Right now, I have a Girl Power pm with Jenn and Kelly. I'm going to start a new private message with those two and Max. Next, Kelly will work on Sierra.

Worse comes to worse, it's four four tie and I break it as leader. That's how it works right?

word of advice hun, assume nothing and expect everything! the game is ALWAYS moving.

lol yeah Stranded Wigles is a totally different animal.

So with your experience in the game so far, how would you say being the leader has affected your initial strategy in the game?

It's been a roller coaster being leader. Lots of stress, but I enjoy the power and the challenge. After reading past player advice, one thing that I think Jenna Lewis said was play wild and free. That is why I went for leader. It's a risk, but it's a risk that has great potential to pay off.

My strategy thus far has been to ask for group consensus, and not be a tyrant. In the challenge, Joaquin put groups in pairs, as did I, but I went with Joaquin's decisions to appease them. Yes, it may have cost us, and I may have over thought it, but it's all good.

Everyone is saying they will support me, and I'm glad that Kel Kel and Si Si and Jenny from the block all have my back. So does Maxipad.

I think one hinderance for this leadership position is that Dan, Joaquin, and Joe may want me gone to usurp my powers for one of them. But I already have four, so should we tie, the power either goes to Yali or comes back to me (I'm not making this up, am I? Leader gets to break ties this season, right?). Anyways, if it goes to Yali, I hope they wouldn't vote me because I already burned my idol.

Tomorrow, Kelly and I are going idol hunting. If I find it, I'm telling Kelly and Jenn and no one else. It gives us immense power. I would keep it to myself, but I need to assure them that the Goldfish trio don't have it first.

Thanks for the advice. I really appreciate it.

Alright, You are not allowed to discuss this with any of your tribemates under penalty of DQ from the challenge.

I need you to rank your tribemates. You will do so like this:

the three most important with #1 being the most #2 being the second most and #3 being the third most.
You must then rank the least important tribe members with #6 being the least important, #5 being the second least important and #4 being the 3rd least important.

Clear? You can put yourself in the ranking. You cannot tell anyone what you have ranked.

Please do so ASAP.

#1. Kelly
#2. Jenn
#3. Joe
#4. Joaquin
#5. Max
#6. Dan

Would you rather me rank myself or not?

WAIT I FORGOT SIERRA

1. Kelly
2. Jenn
3. Joe
4. Joaquin
5. Sierra
6. Max
7. Dan

Me between Joaq and Joe

Again, you are only ranking 6 people. The 3 most important in order and then the 3 least important, in order. You can rank yourself if you so choose.

OH GOTCHA

#1. Kelly
#2. Jenn
#3. Joe

#4. Sierra
#5. Max
#6. Dan

LOL DAN'S EGO IN THIS CHALLENGE

He's like, flip Max and Dan (obviously because he can't envision himself being last)

My strategy for the rankings was to have it be on puzzle strength. Honestly, I thought you were throwing a swap at us, so I wanted to make it the least sketchy for my rankings. I wanted to put Dan last though, because he is my target.

I know I've been hard on Dan. Dan is a good guy, but I think he's after me. I'm still gonna go aggressive at him like the queen bee that I am, but personally he's not a bad dude.

Anyways, my girl Kel Kel read my mind. But what I need her to understand is that we need to force the tie on Dan vs Max. That way, AND I CHECKED THE RULES YOU POSTED ON PREMIERE NIGHT, I have the power to break the tie.

It might have been Ramona who said this, but someone said make moves and have fun. This is both a huge early move and a fun move for me. I never imagined myself being this balsy pre-swap or merge, but you gots to do what you gots to do as Tommy Pickles would say.
