Brenda - I think the one that question was answered in is in the Ovambo one. This whole starting fresh kind of sucks because I think I had about 250 messages sent in Ovambo and close to 50 in my few days in Nama, and just like that they are all gone :( Confessionals were like my notebook that I could go back and re-read if I ever forgot or got too confused. It's not too big of a deal though, no worries.
Mia - I'm a sucker for puns. I've used that pun so often but I don't want to look like a loser typing it like GRANTed every time I use it so people notice me :( (unless that was a generic message sent to everyone in which case disregard this)
I actually planned to write a little something about each person regarding each person so it should appease you both. I'll try to keep it alphabetically by most-recent tribe and put myself at the top of each person's blurb while saving myself for last overall. Let's see here:
I think the vote is going to go by tribal lines (is that surprising?), so I'll write Ovambo if the bolded person thinks the person will be voting Ovambo or Nama if the bolded person thinks that person will be voting Nama. I might write a little more than that but probably not.
David:
Grant - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Ovambo
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Ovambo? (Ashley said she's been telling David she's willing to work with me/us)
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama (David said PB messaged him telling him that he sucks)
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
According to David, the vote will be at least 7-4, and either being 8-4 or 7-5 due to Ashley, not sure yet.
Julie:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Kristina - Ovambo
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Ovambo (I guess Ashley made Julie pretty confident of this)
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
According to Julie, the vote will be at least 8-4 in favor of Ovambo
Kristina:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo, but pretending to be Nama(?)
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - N/A (apparently she is ratting Ashley out to PB, I don't understand why she would do that unless she really is going to flip)
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
I believe that Kristina (and Ralph) will stick with us, and the vote would be 8-4 or 7-5 depending on Ashley. She says she is aware that PB is playing us and is trying to play him back - I suppose. Ashley is telling me that PB is pretty confident in who he swapped, so either they are doing a good job of convincing him or they are switching. The more confident he gets, the more worried I get. I don't think she will vote me out though so I think she will try and deflect the vote off of me and onto Julie to make it more realistic to her flipping.
Mike:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Ovambo (I think I had him convinced pre-merge that Ashley will flip, but I think he is being quiet about it (thankfully))
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
I haven't heard from Mike much since the merge. I think he thinks it will be 8-4, though. I'd suspect the Namas will be hounding him like crazy since I told them he was probably on the outs. I hope he stays strong and doesn't give up too much info. In fact I will send him a message right now to make sure everything is ok. I think he is pretty solid with the core 4, though.
Ralph:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Ovambo, but pretending to be Nama(?)
Mike - Ovambo
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Ovambo (I think Ashley told Ralph that she's willing to flip or willing to work with me, he was very sold that we had her)
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
Ralph, like Kristina, is going to "pretend to be on PB's side". I was surprised when he messaged me post-merge with Kristina saying that we are "his two", I didn't realize we were that close. I mean, we're the "hard hittin' duo" from day 1 but I didn't know how real that was. I was throwing him under the bus a little bit for the tribal pre-merge, oops. I guess I could just say I was creating distance so no-one suspected we're working together or something, and he wasn't the real target anyway. I hope he knows what he's doing, though, he seems a little too... I want to say he acts first and thinks later, or maybe he acts without thinking at all. Maybe he thinks about things and thinks they are a good idea and then talks to me and Kristina about what he had done, rather than what he will do. That's a little too loose-cannon-y for me but if he is sappin' intel from the other side then that is good for me. I just hope he doesn't flip. Maybe he just wanted to make me think he and I are close to keep tabs on me or something. Who knows, I guess. I think he thinks it will be 8-4, unless he flips, then I have no idea.
Steph:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Ovambo
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo
Ashley - N/A (I think Steph thinks we can flip Ashley but she is not sold on it (rightly so), so I'll leave it N/A)
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
Steph has been preaching how we all need to stick together and whatnot, so I'd be surprised if she flipped on us. I think she is pretty close to Kristina so she probably knows Kristina's and Ralph's plan to pretend to be Nama but I am not sure of that so I won't list it. I think she thinks it will be 7-5 or 7-4-1 or something.
Ashley:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Nama? (She is pretty suspicious that Kristina is going to flip, but she doesn't know that Kristina is just pretending)
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Ovambo?
Stephanie - Ovambo
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
Ashley is a tricky one because she could easily be lying to me but things have been lining up so far. She's coming to the same conclusions that she should, so we'll see I suppose. She could be buttering me up and make me think I'm not the target only to send me packing. Or maybe she's legit. I guess I'll know in a few days. I think she is with me (and therefore with Ovambo) but she might not be. If she flips, it would be 8-4. She thinks Kristina (and maybe Ralph too?) are going to flip, so she might think it's going to be 6-6. I don't know.
Cochran:
Grant - Ovambo (according to Ashley, he thinks I hate him, heh)
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Nama? (I don't know what he does or doesn't know)
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Nama? (I don't know what he does or doesn't know)
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
I asked Cochran if he was just going to sit and be PB's and Sophie's little bitch and he straight up said yes. I don't trust him at all whatsoever, but he tried to tell me he was going home and that I saved him, and that if I needed a favor to ask him. Ashley told me he said he was trying to sell me some BS and I caught on. I was thinking of asking him if he wanted to make a deal where we don't write each other's names down, but I would fully intend to go back on that immediately. He probably thinks it's going to be 7-5 in favor of Nama because I'm not very sure if he has a brain of his own, so he will take everything the hivemind of Sophie and Papa Bear says as infallible.
Papa Bear:
Grant - Ovambo (I don't know what the hell he thinks about me)
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Nama (I think she sold him)
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Nama (I think PB thinks he's got Ralph, too)
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Nama
Cochran - Nama
Sophie - Nama
Whitney - Nama
I really hope PB is in for a rude awakening come tomorrow. I'm not sure what the hell he is trying to do, bombarding me with messages with no real flowing train of thought. It's like he has tourettes and he knows he wants to send me messages so he's just sending me the first Survivor related message that comes to mind. I don't know what he's trying to do but I think everyone is on to him so I expect him to go pretty soon... Not too soon but soon... I think he thinks he has 1 and also has Ashley, so it'd be 6-6. I think he thinks he has Ralph in his back pocket too, so 7-5 in favor of Nama.
Sophie:
Grant - Ovambo (Ashley told me Sophie hates me - lol)
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Nama (I think whatever PB thinks, Sophie thinks. I think they share all info so effectively they share a brain)
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Nama (see: Sophie: Kristina)
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Nama
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Whitney - Nama
Sophie is keeping up appearances with me. She's still responding to my messages much like she did on my first day in Nama. Ashley says she really wants me gone and hates me, which is funny because I've always been nice to her. I mislead her, yes, but what did she expect? I don't know what her plan is but I guess time will tell. I think she like PB think it's 7-5 in favor of Nama
Whitney:
Grant - Ovambo
David - Ovambo
Julie - Ovambo
Kristina - Nama?
Mike - Ovambo
Ralph - Nama?
Stephanie - Ovambo
Ashley - Nama
Cochran - Nama
Papa Bear - Nama
Sophie - Nama
I have no idea if she even logs in. I don't know.
For mine, I'll also include who I trust and how much, I guess:
[b]Grant/b]:
David - Ovambo (7-8/10)
Julie - Ovambo (6/10)
Kristina - Ovambo? (5-6/10)
Mike - Ovambo (7-8/10)
Ralph - Ovambo? (5-6/10)
Stephanie - Ovambo (7-8/10)
Ashley - Ovambo? (7-8/10)
Cochran - Nama (0/10)
Papa Bear - Nama (1/10)
Sophie - Nama (1/10)
Whitney - Nama (0/10)
How's that?
