Congrats on making the merge, Shawna.

What do you think of Joanna leaving?

How does the merge change your game, if at all?

Is it Asteria to the end, or do you plan on changing things up?

Thanks

It was sad to see her leave, i actually liked her, tried my best to save her but it wasn't meant to be

Well my position is much worse now than it was before the merge, right now my destiny isn't in my own hands so i have to lay low, or at least try lol. My post-merge strategy would be to gun for whichever of the immunity threats doesn't win immunity, but i'll have to follow the lead from my allies and hope my name doesn't come up.

Well Asteria to the end suits my plans for now, but i'm keeping my options open. But i don't think i will start anaything right away even if i have the chance, but once we get rid of some Helios i'll review my strategy.

How does voting in the minority affect you now? Does Ted know you voted for him?

And congrats on making the merge biatch! <3

Thanks.

He should know. But i don't think Ted is someone i have to worry about, he will either vote for whoever Asteria (Rob) chooses or he will realign himself with Helios and go after someone more dangerous in the eyes of the Helios main alliance..
Voting in the minority probably guaranteed me a "honorable" 10th place overall, but the only thing i can do for now is keep my head down and hope for the best, if i'm fantastically lucky and get a free pass, i have to think of something to try and shake things up later in the game, right now i would very much like to get my hands on an immunity necklace but judging by my performance in the last challenge that is not likely to happen, so i have little chance but to wait and see how things turn out.

If you get time over the weekend Shawna, could you rankdown the players left in the game, with a few lines on each, on whatever criteria suits you?

OK 'im ranking them on power within the tribe

Rob: He's in charge of things, what he says goes, the fact that everybody was ok with such a dangerous player going for the idol , after we guaranteed we would have the numbers on our side after the merge, shows how much he is in control of things.

Ted: Despite switching tribes he managed to avoid being at the bottom of the pecking order.

Joanna: She's the quiet leader, she has a lot of influence on the tribe, everyone seems to listen to her, but she doesn't register on anyones radar.

Christy: She is the second most powerful person on papaer, but she doesn't seem to have the influence she should have given her status, this may actually mean she is playing a great game and is hiding her hand effectively but somehow that's not the feeling i get.

Erin: She seems to be Helios Rob, but her style is very different, once the odds of us having an advantage after the merge rose, she started doing PR, she's like Ted, she doesn't give out anything, but she's much better at it and i can see her being persuasive enough to sway someone.

Helen: She is less visible than Erin but it looked to me like she was one of the leaders at Helios, I expected her to be friendly with us after he merge and so far that has been confirmed.

Brian: I have very little on him, he was present but not prominent in challenges, this may mean a low standing but it may also be because he is in a secure position and doesn't need to show off.

Penny seems to be the least valuable player, her bark seems to be much more dangerous than her bite. always gives the idea that she's puffing out her chest to look bigger.

Daniel: Confidence in the inverse proportion of ability, not a threat in any way, this may actually be good for him because no one would see him as a danger and pretty much everyone would be ok with taking him far, since he's easily beatable, but he's a bit flaky and that may work against him.

With Jeanne out of the game, who are you closest to now?
Who would you like to leave the game tonight?

I'm closest to Joanna and Christy in that order.

I would prefer if Erin left, but since that's not an option i would go for Helen, unfortunately for me, i'm in a position where i want the attention on anyone but me, so i have to agree to boot Penny.

Even with some fear about my own safety the next TC will be very exciting, things may not be as clear cut as they appear to be and there may be some surprises.

And Jeff... first fuchsia and now this pic?

[Can i have my old pic somehow? i forgot to save it...and i have a special attachment to it...specially after it got changed to this one ]
