I sort of put my round 6 Interview #3 . This is turning out to be really awesome Phillip!!! I am so happy.
TWO HUGE players from the Klimbono tribe were blindsided hardcore this round, which gave us a much needed lead on the dominating Klimbono tribe. We also learned some information, the winners of the Outcast Challenges have earned Triple Votes, which being all Klimbono players, made it even more vital that we voted off Sydney. Yul and Sydney were 2 players who had triple votes, and now that they are gone we no longer need to be concerned about it.
Misty however being on our tribe, seems initially worrisome considering she also has a triple vote, but as it turns out, it could be a golden opportunity to get rid of her as well! Jimmy, NaOnka Lex and I have 4 votes, if Misty and Gillian work together, they get 4 as well. But we would win in the Revote, 4 versus 2, really 3 versus 1 since those in the tie can't vote. Getting rid of Misty before the merge is really important, we may even consider losing on purpose to do it, its usually mistake to do that but sometimes it pays off.
The Klimbono tribe gained Anthony in exchange for Misty, which only helps Julie, putting a number on her side. Sarah is of course 100% behind voting off Joel after his attempt to take her out. That's at least half the tribe gunning for him, there is still Matty, his secondary target ( whom Julie believes wasted his double vote to get rid of Chet, which would imply he is back in with Joel) and Jenna who Julie also says she has formed a strong relationship with. Jenna also has a Triple vote, the last remaining one besides Misty.. ( once again assuming Matty used his). I think Julie has enough of a hold on the tribe that she can get Joel out of the game.
Things are looking really good for my position going into the Merge, but in order to actually make it to a point where I can win, I already know I am going to need to make HUGE MOVE pretty early into the merge. I been mentioning Julie quite a lot. She is huge power player going into Merge. She has Lex in her back pocket who will vote however she wants him to, Jenna on her side with a Triple Vote and has manipulated the breakdown of the Klimbono alliance, which means Sarah is also in her pocket. Julie is in a very strong position to potentially make the end and win this game.
Somehow, I need to stop her from steamrolling this game all the way to the end. I think I can talk Naonka, Anthony and Jimmy into doing something about it and Gillian will be so desperate for any chance to stay in the game she would go along with it as well. That may leave Matty as the last piece to the puzzle as a 6th vote to remove Jenna at the merge. I am constantly thinking ahead but will cross that bridge when we come to it.
