Daniel: You left after the challenge I take it?

Well, according to Joanna we threw the challenge after Rob mutinied so that we can boot Ryan tonight, since everyone is wary that he'll flip and join Rob and Helios at the merge.

How does he not see the glaring loophole in this logic.

I don't know if they can actually save themselves at this point? One of them is a goner tonight - likely Ryan. It's pretty much a too little too late story. Had they been exchanging the chunky PMs of last night a few days ago, they might be in with a shout but as it stands; They believe they have Shawna (they don't), they aren't even considering using Daniel (he's too wrapped by the girls anyways) and Ted is a little aloof and likely to only chase his own game.

I can't see where they can get four numbers from, and they certainly can't see it.

There are always angles to take. Throw it all out there to Ted/Daniel, and have Ryan/Jeanne team up with them and take control of the game. Everyone is just so unaware of their position in the game and are willing to settle. Send a massive PM, revealing everything (because after that confessional, we know that Ryan is at least somewhat capable of an idea) and work your ass off. It boggles my mind at how dumb these people are. Joanna sees the opportunity, how does no one else? icon_yawn

lol @ Daniel. He's so stupid, it's hilarious. He and Erin should team-up at the merge to form the "strategical masterminds... NOT" alliance at the merge.

I might miss TC tonight :/

Interesting developments over on Helios. Helen & Rob are having some very indepth discussions, Brian & Rob lagging behind a little, Erin & Rob not so much and Penny is missing out on all the fun.

Of course, Helen & Brian are communicating with each other exactly what's what.
There is even a chance that Rob will stay with Helios tomorrow if he gets the right assurances. Then Helios will boot him anyway :lol: And Helios will enter the merge with a very pretty picture of who is who on Asteria. But big players need to make big moves.

Can I just say that Rob is finally playing like I know he can. Its like he just wasn't vested in the game up to this point, but now he's starting to give it his undivided attention. Plus he's become a lot more 'Cesternino'ish on his second set of first impressions.

icon-golfclap!

So it's a 6-1 Ryan boot for sure tonight.. how drab icon_sleeping

Buuuuuuuuutt, we are setting up for a hella hot merge. Christy has revealed her idol to Joanna, and they are also both suspicious (and a little jealous) of Shawna's 'fake' alliances, and how close she is really to Daniel. Ted convinced Joanna to give him the first Helios clue so by now he should figure out that somebody has that idol aswell. Jeanne is reveling in pulling off her first blindside. Daniel is as clueless as ever.

Daniel is so dumb it hurts. Asteria has the most boring TCs and most predictable boots.

And Joanna started a PM with Shawna called icon_golfclap icon_biggrin

WTF is Shawna solidifying her four person alliance with Jeanne for? I'm hoping she's just covering her bases.

Episode 6

Okey doke.. so my preferred result tomorrow is that no-one mutinies & Helios win the challenge for the maximum clusterfuckery of a round possible, and to set up a cracking merge.

Asteria right now is made up of these alliances;

Christy-Joanna
Christy-(Rob)
Joanna-Shawna
Christy-Joanna-Shawna
Christy-Joanna-(Rob)
Christy-Joanna-Shawna-Daniel
Shawna-Daniel-Jeanna-Ted (Pacifier for Ted/Jeanne)
And Ted is very open with all of Christy/Joanne(/Rob) aswell but nothing official.

At the moment Shawna is having a little bit of a rush to the head of power because she's the centrepiece and wants to call the shots, she is putting Ted's name out as the person who would cause the most damage come merge to Joanna. Daniel will fall in line, but Jeanne will need convincing as to why taking out one of her own alliance is a good idea. Don't tell her? Do it without her blessing? She becomes a wildcard at the merge. ..and of course, you and me both know that Ted has an idol.

Ted has stated a preference of seeing Joanna leave next (or possibly Daniel? wtf?). jeanne is targeting anyone not allied to her (Christy/Joanna but moreso Rob if he comes back)

Oh I hope this somehow works out into a more exciting boot than tonight's.

Asteria exchanged 600-ish PMs during Episode 5, and only 800-ish in the whole first four episodes combined.. icon_wacko
