-- 5th Place - Voted Out 3-2 --
#77554
That wraps up the third week on Stranded! Congrats on making it this far. Since we're at the weekend again, let's relax and take some time over the next couple days to reflect. Six questions for the F6:

  1. That tribal... a split 4-3 vote, hardly any whispers, Jeff's questions, etc. How do you make of all of that, as well as Shan leaving?
  2. F6 means we're getting near the end of the game. What is the most important part of your endgame to you?
  3. Out of everyone left, who here would you not want to sit next to at Final Tribal Council?
  4. On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a winning game do you think you currently have, and why? Anything you need to do to make it even better?
  5. Ponderosa is starting to fill up. Which current jurors do you believe would vote for you to win? Or would refuse to vote for you to win?
  6. Finally, let's get an updated trust ranking list please!

Not gonna lie I’m still rattled about last night. Xander really screwed up. I don’t think he realizes how badly he screwed up yet, but his personal ambitions locked in 3rd or 4th place for him. Either he squeaks his way into the end and nobody votes for him because he’s playing a below average game, or Leslie and I get picked off and then the remaining 3 stay strong. I haven’t been able to trust this guy all game and he has let me down time and time again. I have no interest in playing with him moving forward, but I have no choice if I want to break up this power 3. I’m not going to write Leslie’s name down, but it’s at the point where if this 3 doesn’t legitimately break, I’m fine with just getting rid of Xander this round and taking my gamble at winning 2 immunities to get myself to the end. I’m venting to y’all because I have to play it cool with him, but he really pissed me off.

I don’t how I feel about my challenge performance. As you’ll see, I had a 5-7 minute window where my wifi cut out in the middle of the challenge. I do ultimately think this will probably cost me immunity, but I’m proud of myself for not making any stupid mistakes. I built a pretty hefty stack, I believe my score will be 54, which definitely gives me a shot if people were overly careful or making mistakes. Probably would’ve been on pace for 75-80 if the wifi didn’t screw me, but it’s part of the game. I fully expect Abraham to score over 100, so it probably won’t matter anyway.

That tribal... a split 4-3 vote, hardly any whispers, Jeff's questions, etc. How do you make of all of that, as well as Shan leaving?
  • Ugh. This was the worst feeling of the game for me. I feel like I failed, but in the way where I never even really had a chance. Xander made a personal decision and that basically set the trajectory for the rest of this game, unless I’m able to pull something magical out of my bag of tricks. I can promise you there won’t be any more quiet tribals from me the rest of this season, that is for sure.
F6 means we're getting near the end of the game. What is the most important part of your endgame to you?
  • Mere existence. If I can stumble my way into the final 3 with the way I played this game, I should probably win. That is because I have done a really good job with my jury management, shockingly. I feel like they are all kinda rooting for me to get to the end which is nice. Always nice to see the underdog succeed.
Out of everyone left, who here would you not want to sit next to at Final Tribal Council?
  • Honestly, I don’t really care who I sit next to, but I’d probably say Abe. I just know he doesn’t have any interest in being at the end with me and he could gain some traction because he was a strong challenge performer and was with the numbers the whole game.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a winning game do you think you currently have, and why? Anything you need to do to make it even better?
  • I’d say an 8. I’m playing a very good game, but it’s definitely not perfect because I haven’t really developed any sort of control with the numbers. I need to get one of the power 3 to flip on each other if I have a chance to make it there and have a winning case, as this would be my way to establish some sort of power in this game. Otherwise, people could argue that I’m a glorified goat. I don’t know how much faith I have in that but we shall see.
Ponderosa is starting to fill up. Which current jurors do you believe would vote for you to win? Or would refuse to vote for you to win?
  • Honestly I think I’m getting a good amount of votes if I get to the end. I’d expect Jaime and Erik to vote for me because they understand how difficult it was to not simply be picked off as a Kallpa member. I think Heather, Shan, and Sara may be with me because I was being genuine to them before their exits and they recognized that. I don’t think that Deshawn, Xander or Evvie would vote for me in the end, but I think Leslie and Abe would. That does make me think a little bit, I won’t lie.
Finally, let's get an updated trust ranking list please!
  • Leslie: A-
  • Evvie: D
  • Xander, Deshawn, Abe: F
