#3624 Hey Jaclyn. Congrats on surviving that tribal council.

Here are some questions:

1. That was a pretty hectic tribal council with a lot of drama. What made you get so heated at So? And what was your take on the other drama going on in there?

2. Did that vote go as you expected? If not, what'd you expect and what do you suspect went wrong?

3. With Kelly being the first member of the jury, at what point do you have to start considering jury votes?

4. Give me a status update on your game: How are you feeling about your place in the game this round? What's your path to the end?

5. Also, are we going to see a more active Jaclyn in coming rounds?

1. I got so heated with So not because she picked me for her last minute plan to try to flip the votes, but because i felt like her execution to try to flip was god awful. First off, she picked the wrong person for her plan- i was inactive as hell this weekend and everyone knew it, therefore people knew So was lying because I didn't have time to even attempt to flip the votes on Dale. Second, her lack of social awareness was god-awful. Does she not know me and Dale were on the same tribe since day 1? Wouldn't it be fair to assume we are in some sort of alliance? It would have been better for her to target people who were on the same tribe, but were swaped. EXAMPLES: Drew -> Val or Jenn -> Joaq, But to pick people who were on the same tribe from the get-go was a dumb move. Overall i was just upset that So did this without thinking about how to execute it.

2. Yes the plan was for Kelly to go home. She needed to go because she was decent in challenges and kept to herself a lot, which was no bueno.

3. The right answer to this question is now.... But I'm more worried about making it to the finals. There is just so much gameplay going on that i rather focus on actually sitting in the finals than trying to please people as they get eliminated.

4. After my blowout at tribal, I definitely feel vulnerable. People could have been easily scarred off by my attitude and would rather not work with me. BUT i look at the positive of every situation and I believe my blowout actually HELPS me. It shows that i'm not a one-dimensional figure that just goes with the flow and just takes it. If someone is trying to mess with my game, they're getting called out on it. Therefore I see this as a great lesson for all not to fuck with me and therefore try to target other people who are more lowkey/quiet/plotting a blindside.

5. You guys will HATE me but i know i can't be online tomorrow since i have an review session for my exam at night. So I will have to miss the challenge/live tribal. i'm really sorry guys :/ After this week i'm done so bare with me (even tho you are already since pre-season).

#3652 Well at the very least, people can't say you were hiding or invisible AND semi-active lol. I think you're doing okay activity wise, you were here for the challenge and council and if you can keep doing that and hwen you do have time really go hard at the PMs, you should be okay. Tonight proved you are here to play though.

Thank you Jeff.
Yeah I wasn't going to let So, out of all people, try to throw me under the bus with her half-assed plan. Like bitch sit the fuck down, this isn't the election for freshman vice-president, this is STRANDED. icon_rolleyes

Who do you feel is or are the lowkey/quiet schemers in your tribe? And how would you go about taking them out?

@Kelly:

Drew definitely comes in mind. Dude plays both sides and people actually think he's everyone's alliance. He has the social game down. I think it's pretty clear tho everyone is catching onto his shenanigans and want him out gone sooner rather than later.

Joaq/Kelly are also good candidates that fit this characteristics. Joaq had a sudden change in personality since merging. He seems more "conformed", if that makes sense. He just agrees to the plan, opposed to dictate what the plan is when we were at Yali 2.0. Definitely gotta keep an eye on him.

And Kelly is known to flip lowkey. So she's always someone to keep in place.

#3663 not to be a douche or anything, but I hope I made So cry or something. I need to raise fear in people so that they don't try to start anything with me or else they'll get slayed yours truly.

#3668 How do you feel your recent inactivity has affected your game? Do you have any safety measure in place considering there's more absences coming?

honestly Kelly this may sound bad, but it's really working to my advantage. People obviously noticeD and therefore are more likely to target people who are more active than me. Which is a good thing since it brings me to the finals more. Also this tribal showed how my inactivity benefited my game - no one took So seriously since they know I couldn't have had time trying to flip the votes on Dale. So it definitely helps my game.

And i just found out that this site on mobile-friendly! icon_mml icon_mml icon_mml so i basically can log on and see my PM's without using my huge ass laptop. Mobile will definitely keep me as active as possible in the future.

Okay so if Drew goes tomorrow and Val agrees with the plan to get Drew out, i want the final 3 to be me, Nadiya, Val with Dan and So as 4th/5th. I really want to bring Nad and Val to the finals because I worked with these girls since day one and if I will lose, I'd want to lose to those two. Dan and So are brought this far just in case I feel like it's for my best interest to bring them to the finals and win easily opposed to having a tough final 3 tribal.

#3693 I see So is part of your plans, do you expect to be able to work with her after the blowout at tribal?

What about the rest of your current alliance, how would you dump them?

#3791 we actually apologized to each other last night and agreed to keep the apology quiet so that people still see us as enemies. This can definitely help both our games as it helps cross examine people in this game.

and at this point, i'm expecting blindside casualties in my current alliance that i don't necessary have to actually dump them - which is great because i might get their jury votes later on.
