I guess I have to say congrats on avoiding tribal tonight... though you guys didn't have to do much
What do you think about how quickly the idol was taken?

Speaking of tonight's challenge, did you ever consider taking it for yourself? Was it something you were planning on doing, or did the option not cross your mind at all?

Now that the numbers are getting smaller and smaller, how do you feel about your position in the game? How would you assess your chances of making it to the end and taking the win? What will you need to do to make that happen?

Have things changed much since the last round? How are tribe dynamics looking, and who do you think will be the one to go if Asmat has to go back to tribal?

I'm not surprised. Obviously Joaq felt threatened, but felt like he could also make a big move.

I did for a second, but Reed would get voted out in a heart beat. Better to wait to take the shot next time. It would have screwed me if Reed, Joe or myself took it. I'm glad we didn't.

I went from probably the most powerful player on Yali, to close to the bottom at Asmat, to now possibly gaining a lot more power. I feel great now. I could see myself winning. Obviously it would be difficult, as it would be for anyone. If I play my cards right though, I'll be sitting pretty. I would need old Yali to put their faith in me, and Jenn and Reed to have my back always. i would also need a few small side deals for blindside votes of close power players. i feel like I'm connected enough now to pull in the numbers and take this bull by the horns.

Things are fairly similar. Jenn's ally Max is gone, so she is much more loyal with me. Joe will be going as long as they still split the vote. If they think there is no more idol, I will drop a bomb that it is because I found it and will be using it on Reed or myself. They will have to split the vote.

If Yali wants to stick together, a big alliance will push through and dominate for a few rounds. I'm not stupid though. I'd never get all of Asmat out first. Just enough to keep them from revolting. Then use them to get out a few Yali that are sketchy. Then take either Reed and Jenn, or goats.

Sorry I just realized how awfully disorganized and shitty to read this must be. I'll post more confessionals later on that cover these topics more in depth.
