Kallpa lost a tribe member tonight. You still have a long way to go before claiming the prize, but you’re one step further! Please share your thoughts on how things are going for you.

1.       What type of player (strategic mastermind, social butterfly, under the radar, challenge beast, goat, wild card) are you trying to be at this stage of the game? How do you think your fellow tribe members perceive your current player type? Why?

2.     Do you have the “right” Survivor rep? If not, what rep would you have chosen for yourself? If the Survivor rep we chose for you suits you, what qualities do you think you share? How are you making your rep work for you if you are?

3.       Tomorrow is a challenge AND tribal council. Now that you have done one challenge for yourselves, what could be in store for you and your tribe? Think you can handle losing and having tribal council soon after?

4.       Speaking of challenges, what is your stance on physical players? Do you value people in the tribe who are good at challenges and want to keep them around even if they're not the best socially with you?

In your episode 0 confessional two things stood out to me about how you want to identify threats and move through this game. You wanted to figure out who is the biggest threat/ "alpha male". Who, in your opinion, fits that role so far? Or is there an Alpha Male as well as a biggest threat maneuvering through your tribe, or the large game as a whole?

You said you wanted to find one person to stay loyal to for the whole game to prove you're a woman of your word and that you'd be comfortable losing to them in the end(and that you're willing to adapt if the game you're playing doesn't call for that type of strategy). Have you found that one person or persons you want to stay loyal to? If you were to lose to ANYONE in the game right now, who is it you'd want to lose to?

Keep up the great work so far! Hope you're having fun.

There's no stereotypical Alpha Male figure in our tribe, however, there is a man who everyone seems to flock to and that's Abraham. He's good to have on my side now but it is someone who can prove to be a threat later down the line because of how charismatic he is, and how well he communicates with everyone on the tribe. For right now, it's good for me to be in his good graces than to be his target. Do I think he's someone I can trust long-term? No. 

There are currently two people I am comfortable losing against and that is Abe or Evvie. Abe is playing a phenomenal game so far and his winning the season based on his current trajectory seems like something I would be okay with if I lose. Evvie is the person I am being most honest with currently about my gameplay. I feel like we're building a friendship so far and she's the person I plan on being the most loyal to as we progress throughout the game. 

Losing to either of those two would be an okay outcome for me but that doesn't mean I'm not going fight like hell to assure that I'm the winner. Like Sara said last night, it's not over until the fat lady sings.

Who's the fat lady in this instance?
