Round #5: There Will Be Blood

[Stephen Fishbach]

First off, I want to apologize for my lack of a confessional last round. Nothing MAJORLY eventful happened, and I was pretty damn busy with preparations for my orchestra concert and whatnot.

We now join our regularly scheduled program, already in progress.

So I just found out one of my best friends, Holly, was targeted and sent home by two of my other "best friends" Shambo and Phillip. They, along with Lisa, who also voted for Holly, will fucking pay. I was pretty pissed off though that Shannon told me that the tribe consensus was that Blake should go to Devil's Island. It was a very smart move strategically, but it pisses me off that I didn't find out until after the fact that Holly felt like she was in danger. I would have vouched to try and send her to Devil's Island, but now she thinks that since I'm the one who posted that we were sending Blake, I was the one that played a big part in her going home. I do feel guilty, indeed, but I'll have to chug along without her, and yes, Phillip, Shambo, and Lisa will suffer the consequences. This might become one of my meanest games ever.

Word has it that people think I'm with Stephanie and Ashley. Them two are most certainly together; I, however, am not with them. If anything I'm currently against them because they're a duo that apparently has an idol (Ashley particularly, but Steph might as well since they're a pair) and it needs to be flushed out immediately. We're still trying to figure out how to go about that part, but some things might be in the works.

[Stephen Fishbach]

Oh man, it feels good to have won 3 challenges in row! I haven't had to go to TC in over a week now! So my villainy will have to wait. But now maybe over at Aqua, best case scenario, either Ashley's idol gets flushed or she doesn't use it and goes home. Best case scenario would've been Shambo going, but since Phillip took her with him to DI (not a surprise; I can tell they're pretty tight and need to be broken up ASAP), that obviously can't happen.

[Stephen Fishbach]

A thought just occurred to me: though safety is a #1 priority and therefore I am happy to have not had to go the last three TCs, I kind of miss channeling my creativity in the TC voting parchments.

[Stephen Fishbach]

I just found out from Parvati that Stephanie is targeting me because she "hates" me. That's bullshit! I have talked to her maybe one in this entire game! There is no basis on which to hate me! Parvati asked me, given that we hardly talked if at all, whether we had any history between us. Judging by the AIM list, I don't recognize that screen name, so if she knows me from a prior game and is just using a different screen name she's being a fucking coward. Inferno might have to throw the next challenge: if the episode guide reflects that there were votes cancelled out, Ashley no longer has her idol and we'll be OK. But if there were no votes cancelled out, Ashley still has her idol and we need to throw the challenge because we think after this next round is the merge. That will bring Ashley and Stephanie back together and Ashley can then give Stephanie her idol to save herself.
