Episode 10

[Brenda Lowe]

Final Nine. GJ you!

But it only gets tighter from here. WTactualF just went down at TC?

How does Becky leaving affect your game? What are the sides now, and who is on which?

And the million dollar question, who is next to leave, if you get your way?

[Brenda Lowe]

Bumping this bitch, bitch. Keep up Ibe.

[Ibrehem]

Sorry, Brenda.

Final Nine. GJ you!

Thanks, Brenda!! I'm so happy to make it in the single digits! 3 votes away from my last placement.

But it only gets tighter from here. WTactualF just went down at TC?

I was gonna ask you. I guess Hurricane Coby hit Portugal? Marissa (well, and myself) were lying to Ralph and Shawn about Coby and so Coby went crazy and exploded? I guess? His rant was hot, but really dumb.

How does Becky leaving affect your game? What are the sides now, and who is on which?

Becky leaving means one of the biggest social threats is out and that's just what I needed. Also another one of my early-alliance-member-gone-wrong's throats has been slit. Who knew Ibrehem was such an assassin? I got away with voting Hayden, voting PETER ( ), voting Laura, voting Caryn and now Becky. I am not the Ibrehem you once knew.

And the million dollar question, who is next to leave, if you get your way?

Coby or Shawn.


Also can I just say Mia asking me like 3 questions at tribal had me so much more nervous than I would have been?

And I'll throw in a question for myself.


Was playing your hidden immunity idol at the last Tribal Council actually a smart play?

[Ibrehem]

Oh and the sides right now seem to be Limici 3 vs. Bracari 3/Tapoli 3.

[Brenda Lowe]

Talk me through Rachel's Avatar ordering. You know you want to

[Ibrehem]

Am I doing this one since it's the Halfway thread?

viewtopic.php?f=26&t=191

Which one are you talking about?

[Brenda Lowe]

Her deliberate un-alphabetising here; viewtopic.php?f=26&t=171&start=20#p5757

Also some interesting column/row layouts. Much to be analysed.

[Ibrehem]

Indeed. *puts on glasses*

If we line up Coby/Shawn/me as the bottom row then it looks like the bottom row could be the next ones gone from left to right? I just have to not be 7th Place after I get the talismans assuming Shawn gets 8th Place.

Or it could start at the bottom right with me next.

I guess we'll see.

[Ibrehem]

Can.

I.

Just.

Say.

So far I've managed to keep both my partner and friend in this game with targets literally tattooed on our backs. Rachel's gotten how many votes? 8? That shit wasn't easy.

[Ibrehem]

And Rachel still has the target on her back for this round.

She's like my shield and Marissa is my sword.

[Sophie P Clarke]

And Rachel still has the target on her back for this round

Do you think Rachel is most likely going to get the most votes tonight, or are you trying to make sure that doesn't happen?

[Ibrehem]

So far every vote I've been a part of has gone the way I voted. I'm always expecting to be on the losing side of the vote. Do I think it could be Rachel getting the most votes? Maybe, but I'm trying my best to make sure it isn't her leaving tonight.

[Ibrehem]

I'm setting up a group PM between myself, Sem, Rach and Marissa. I'm sooo tempted to call it "Ibe's Angels" but I don't want to give them any ideas.

Rachel and Marissa are probably together already anyway.

[Ibrehem]

Me setting up that PM was perfect!

Semhar wants to target Shawn because she's worried about the newbs teaming up on the next move. And she said it straight to Marissa and Rachel's faces.

And Marissa with the #clapback calling out Semhar for possibly working with Ralph and Cochran.

Lots of distrust in our alliance between the girls makes room for Ibe.

[Ibrehem]

Worried about the newbs teaming up next round*

[Brenda Lowe]

Do you agree with targeting Shawn this round?

[Ibrehem]

Honestly? It's kind of the same either way for me. Ralph or Shawn leaving gives me and Marissa talismans. There's advantages to voting either.

Things to consider about who to vote specifically are: Namibia alliance? That's a good reason to vote Ralph.

All newbs alliance? Good reason to vote Shawn.

These are things I can't/don't/won't know for sure though. Part of me is hesitant to side with Marissa/Rachel/Vytas for that reason. I don't know how I fit in with Marissa and Rachel's long-term plans. I know they're close.

That's why part of me wants to vote Shawn, but I ALSO believe Semhar is pretty damn powerful herself.

What to do?

[Ibrehem]

Everyone seems to think Ralph/Cochran/Semhar are together and that's how the vote could be going. Ralph blindside, apparently.

[Ibrehem]

If we blindside Ralph and he leaves, I'm gonna feel bad for lying to Semhar. Namibia group or not.

[Ibrehem]

Could I be blindsided? The thought hadn't crossed my mind until now, but maybe.
