Well, so far the game has gotten off to an interesting, and embarrassing start lol. I felt really dumb messing up on that point but oh well. Maybe that'll just mean I am not seen as a threat in round 1. Plus, being a cop just means you have to protect 2 people and everyone assumes you are together - which you probably are. I know Silas/Ethan/Marcus are targets now, so maybe I'm better off with my one little gem, smiling and being cute. haha
So, about this vote. I heard many names floating around, including Rocky and Russell - and I do not want to vote them out right now. Russell may be against me because of a past game, but I am hoping he (Cathy) has gotten over that. I know from hosting her so much that she isn't usually very good at forming alliances and often finds herself the odd-man out. And she doesn't have Steph in this game to be her auto-alliance. Well, unless Steph is lying to me, and she could be. No idea.
So, I talked to Parvati and Silas today and after playing the "I don't know who we should vote for, what do you think" game for a while, a few things became apparent to me. 1. They are most likely together, since they both led me away from Brandon as a possible victim and 2. they both were happy to settle on Steph. They were obviously talking to each other while they were talking to me. So, I happily said I'd vote Steph...but I didn't.
Tracy (Angi) and I talked about names the other night. She said Brandon is a player - he may be laying low now, but he can definitely step it up and win comps. That, coupled with the fact that Parv and Silas want to protect them, AND Rocky's crazy notion about the Survivor Africa alliance was all I needed to get the ball rolling. Ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves victim #1. Sorry Brandon.
So, Tracy and I basically worked the votes. She IMd Ace and told him to vote Brandon and put "done." LOL at her just telling him what to do and he does it. She also gave Steph a heads-up and Steph was appreciative and is also voting Brandon. I got Russell and Rocky on board. Tracy talked to Marcus. Jerri will probably join us. I think we have a majority of 8, people. I may sound a bit cocky but I think the vote is in the bag.
Next comp, we try to keep power from the Silas/Ethan crew and hopefully we can split them up.
