$eason 19(M) Episode 08
$pecies: Previously on $urvivor...
At Sajid, Jessica grappled with the fact that her number 1 ally, Joe, had been blindsided at tribal council. She found an idol token that was to be sold to another player, but the 5.7k price tag she set was too high for Bloody to accept. At Qummah, Vikram’s stock plummeted as he tossed around accusations at Borges.
At the immunity challenge, the castaways discovered that there would be a joint tribal - 2 from each tribe would be sent, based on who had the most money stolen from them. At @Qummah, the Bloody-Borges-Goose trio set their sights on stealing from Vikram and Simon. At @Sajid, Jonas and Sophie plotted to attend together so that they could control the votes, and attempted to signal to Clink and Zach to join them. At @Khutob, it initially seemed as if the targets may be Clink and Zach, but Kasnoy shocked the tribe by volunteering to attend the joint in order to live up to his own moral code. Shortly thereafter, $pecies revealed that the attendees would be Simon and Vikram from Qummah, Jonas and Sophie from Sajid, and Kasnoy and Clink from Khutob.
At the joint tribal, Jonas, Sophie and Clink quickly linked up. Jonas, maintaining his grudge from being sent to the bloodbath at the final 19, set his sights on Kasnoy. Although the target seemed set, that didn’t stop Vikram from becoming paranoid, and he grappled with whether or not to play his idol tokens. At tribal, Vikram’s paranoia got the better of him as he played both of his idol tokens for a micro idol, but it proved useless as Kasnoy’s plan to volunteer backfired, robbing himself out of the game by a unanimous vote.
13 are left. Who will be voted out tonight?
Intro plays.

NIGHT 20
SAJID
Jonas and Sophie return to Sajid's camp after voting out Kasnoy at the joint tribal council.
Sophie: WE’RE HOME!
Jonas: Moss, we took out Kasnoy!

Aw I was hoping Jonas or Sophie would go home. Now I'm really really hoping that we will merge or have another joint tribal soon because I just know Jonas and Sophie will throw the challenge to get me out. Pretty sure they already did it to Joe.

I wish I could say I got Vikram to play his idol tokens on purpose but he did play them last night because of me. I convinced him it was going to be a 3-3 vote and that I had a micro idol to play to make it 3-2. So when I didn't stand up to play anything, he must have thought "oh shit, it's not Kasnoy who is going here", panicked and played his idol tokens, just to realize he was in the [bleeping] 5-1 majority. If Vik had kept his tokens, my allies would have 4 tokens right now (Moss and Sophie have one each) and we would be 1 away from a kill switch (5 tokens = 1 macro idol). Me thinks, at merge, Deaze gotta go. Y’all know how it has been coming up recently - I be speaking $urvivor funerals into existence.
NIGHT 20
QUMMAH
Simon and Vikram return to Qummah's camp.
Vikram: I’m back, bitches!
Vikram | @Qummah ![SajidIcon SajidIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345339592724.png)
![QummahIcon QummahIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345205637130.png)
Oh boy. My tokens are gone. Well it’s fine as long as I’m still here. I am not regretting it. I am being a couch potato in this game. I may be one of the worst players here. Do I care? No, because I’m giving it my all and doing what I think is happening and I’m determined to play. Things aren't going my way exactly as I want but it’s fine. I’m literally fed up with these people. Only Nerf is the person I’m looking forward to playing with.

Vikram is a loose cannon aimed right at my head. He is going the first chance we get. As for Simon, he is someone I have been with all game, yet he has also tried to go against me multiple times, most recently with the last immunity challenge. While I can trust him for now, I would rather see him gone sooner than later unless he makes himself a goat.

EoE sounds like it was a fun time. Vikram is giving me nothing but apparently Simon spilled some major tea to Borges, who then spilled it to me.

I’m getting a ton of info from Simon. This EoE was insanely good to know how the game was for the others. Vikram wasting two tokens is everything to me!

Earlier at the Edge, Jonas proposed to me that he can throw the next challenge to take out Jess if I feel like I'm in danger in this tribe. So OG Zufaf could be left with only Deaze, who will be a merge target for controlling Khutob 2.0. At that moment, our plan going into merge is to make a group which would include Moss, Borges and me from OG Khutob tribe, Clink and Sophie from OG Qummah, Jonas and Nerf from OG Sajid. That would be 7 and if we would merge at Final 13 we should have numbers to do that.
NIGHT 20
KHUTOB
Clink returns to Khutob's camp without Kasnoy.
Zach: Welcome back, Clink!
Clink: Hi! Hello!
Zach: Wait, is Kasnoy gone or just isn't back to camp?
Clink: RIP our panda brother Kasnoy.
Nerf: [BLEEP]!
Deaze: Oh my god, this is not a good night but I'm glad you're back, Clink!
Deaze | @Khutob ![ZufafIcon ZufafIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345226739733.png)
![KhutobIcon KhutobIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345105367040.png)
[BLEEP]! WHY ARE ALL MY POTENTIAL ALLIES VOTED OUT? UGGG! I'VE MADE $2500 SO FAR ON ALL THESE DAMN LEGACY OF LOVE AND I DON'T EVEN WANT IT! I'd rather have the support and assistance of loyal tribe members instead. Part of me wants to beat Clink’s ass, part of me knows I should be calm and just ask what happened back there. How did they both not come back under those circumstances? I'm sure there is a reasonable explanation to all of this. Maybe Jonas finally got his revenge. Maybe Sophie is just so good, Clink buckled under pressure just like he did in the gold bar challenge. I can't imagine Vik turning on his boy Kas. Clink coming back and not Kasnoy screams betrayal to me but I can't let Clink now that.

Holy [bleep], I can't believe I was a part of my first ever blindside on someone else. Poor Kasnoy, I still feel guilty but I think voting out Kasnoy is the best thing for my game. I have gained two meatshields as allies and removed someone who’s an ally for Deaze. I can hide behind all of this bad blood and stay under the radar when jury hits. I have ties with Simon, Sophie, Jonas and Nerf. Now, let’s kiss Deaze’s ass to make sure he sticks with me so I can blindside him later. I think it's gonna be such a mess when merge hits. I have yet to meet Bloody or Jessica and I would really like to!

![KhutobIcon KhutobIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345105367040.png)
Kasnoy did not return. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Clink just ended him. Jonas' revenge plan worked I guess. Is Kasnoy leaving the best for me? Not particularly but it's better than Jonas leaving. I need people willing to make moves to stay in the game, not people who go with the majority and don't do much else.
Nerf | @Khutob ![SajidIcon SajidIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345339592724.png)
![KhutobIcon KhutobIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/863040345105367040.png)
God damn it. Anything can happen in $urvivor, and Kasnoy going is a huge example of that. I lost my ride or die to Vik. Ugh. Clink is my ride or die now. This merge, whenever it comes, is going to be way harder now. I know of trios. I know of duos. I know of fights. I know Deaze potentially has 2 idol tokens. It seems like Deaze is in a better position than I thought he was. Now, Kasnoy being gone is also kinda good as I think Deaze gets closer to me. Apparently he had an idol token and gave it to Kasnoy. I think realistically, I can hide UTR the best out of anyone. There are so many rivalries that there will never be any attention on me.
Borges: WOOP! CONGRATS ON MERGE GUYS!
Simon: Well, actually that never said that this is merge. So we don't know.
Goose: Ooooooh one camp! Fun fun...

DAY 21
KHUTOB x QUMMAH x SAJID
The Final 13, while remaining as three tribes, move to the new campsite with their belongings.

I honestly love this setup so [bleeping] much. The format is interesting because it either sets us up for the merge or it is the merge. Either way, I think it's nice having everyone together in one camp, it's kind of a congratulatory moment to making it this far in the game.

I suspect we are gonna have all 3 tribes go to tribal alone and the reason for this 1 camp set up is to allow people to pass around advantages before going into their final tribal as old camps. But if there is a swap I’m down to reunite with Zach and Goose and I’m even warming up to the idea of trying to mend things with Bloody BUT I don't want to be naive and assume that's even possible In retrospect, I didn’t care about working with Kasnoy, I just really liked Bloody, and that's why I was heartbroken when they voted me out (to the Edge).

People keep telling me Jonas likes me which is good, but he needs to calm that down a bit. I am okay with not merging yet as I feel a bit more secure with numbers in our tribe and hopefully Jess goes if we lose. I think even if Sophie flips it would be 2-2 but I don't know what benefit she gets from that.

My first reaction to when I heard we would live at the same camp was that I’m glad that I’ll be able to meet and reconnect with a few people, and I'm just very glad to be getting out of my camp, but I am also still worried that we might still go to tribal in our respective camps and then I just know it would end up a death sentence.

I truly thought it was merge but I guess not. It's fun being able to talk again to other people. The numbers aren't looking too good to me and it seems that the only tribe that's beneficial for me to go to tribal is mine. If Khutob goes to tribal, Clink is out which is definitely not good. If Sajid goes to tribal Jess is voted out which isn't the worst but definitely not the best. Vikram really has to go. I was talking to Goose and he is also thinking about throwing the challenge so we don't have to deal with Vikram at merge.

Borges and I are talking daily even though we have this "feud" going which is awesome because we both see the game as a game and that makes it easy for us to be honest. That being said, I am happy that I got to reconnect with Nerf and Deaze and meet a couple new people. It’s so good to get to talk to Nerf again. Love that guy, he is the best. I’m literally pouring info to him and that makes me feel better. I need to exploit the Borges revenge with Zach. Also I’m looking forward to an alliance of me, Nerf and Deaze.

I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck. All of a sudden I saw a bunch of new people and was instantly overwhelmed by the new faces that were chatting with me. I haven’t yet formulated a game plan about how to deal with the new people and how I was going to release info. Technically, we have merged as we are able to plan and talk game to everyone in the game, but this is a little more tricky as you can't vote out anyone you want, so you still have to be careful about the info that you spread around.

I'm giving info out I learnt from EoE and sharing it to build some trust. I think it's risky to be doing this so quickly but I still wanna try to scoop up these allies! I hope merge is next. I don't wanna risk going to tribal with 4 people, god please lemme reach merge.

My gut is telling me we AREN'T merging here. I wanna start preparing for this. I think I have a lot of people who wanna rely on me when we merge eventually. There's a good amount of people who do NEED me in this game and whatnot. They are too focused on wanting to go for each other rather than go for me. So me and Clink would realistically be in the middle between Vikram, Moss, Sophie, Simon, Jonas vs Borges, Bloody, Goose, Jessica, Deaze. I don't know where Zach would go.

For real people are scrambling because I guess a lot of people wanted a swap. But I'm not the person that scrambles, I am taking it as any other kind of twist and just pushing through. I myself would also like a swap but I have to deal with the hand dealt to me.

We are at this moment in the game when we can merge today or in the next few days. Right now we have a chance to talk to everyone. I really like Nerf, and I don't trust Deaze from the moment we started talking. Deaze is someone who tries to portray himself like that clueless person who doesn’t have anyone close to him when in reality he was the one calling all shots in Khutob 2.0. Another person I met for the first time was Jess but I didn't talk with her enough to build my own opinion about her. I heard she tried to pin people against each other. She also sold her idol to Deaze and with that I don't really know if I can trust her.

I refuse to believe this isn’t merge, because honestly every round the tribe is getting a bit less sustainable and I feel like shit is about to hit the fan on Qummah between Vik x Simon x Borges and even Goose. Here’s my shitty theory: come the immunity challenge tomorrow, at the start of it all we drop buffs and become one big happy tribe. If that doesn’t happen, I’ll cry.

$pecies: Come on in, guys!
The Final 13 march in.
$pecies: Hope you are enjoying the new campsite that you're sharing with the other 2 tribes. Ready for your next challenge?
Borges: Of course!
$pecies: Once again, tribal immunity is NOT back up for grabs.
Sophie: Merge merge merge!
$pecies: Today, you are competing against your campmates for double individual immunity. If you're one of the Top 2 performers of this challenge, you'll win a guaranteed spot in the FINAL ELEVEN.
Yep, you heard it right - by the end of this round, two players will be eliminated from the game! It's time for a real bloodbath!
How exactly the double elimination works will only be announced to y'all AFTER everyone has completed this challenge. All I can say now is that all 3 tribes will be attending tribal council together. For your sake, I would suggest trying your best to win one of the two immunity necklaces up for grabs today.
Here's how it works. You will first watch a YouTube video for up to 30 minutes before answering 9 trivia questions related to the video. Time is money; the more time you spend watching the video before being shown the questions, the more money you would have to pay for this challenge. The two castaways with the most number of correct answers will win immunity, safe from the double elimination!

I really want this immunity necklace and I kinda was fast although I did have to go back to check two things. I might not win but still might be in a tribal with the best performances. I believe after the challenge we will be divided into a tribal with the best performances on the challenge and another tribal with the worst performances, then 2 people will be voted out.

I really wanna win this. I don't mind that much about money being taken away. I feel like studying the video is more important than the money spent. After all, money doesn't really matter in winning this challenge. It's all about getting the most questions correct. Plus if I spend on the more heavier side, they see me as even less of a threat money wise.

I think I performed really well in the challenge. I want immunity so bad. I hope I win, else it's gonna be a rocky hill to climb. I can't afford a double elimination chaos with half of the people not aligned with me.

All 13 castaways compete in the camel race individually.
$pecies: It's all done! Would you like to find out the immunity results first or how the double elimination works?
Everyone: Immunity results!
$pecies: Alright. Most of you did really well and it's a close finish!
Simon spent $1710 but placed last because he missed out 2 questions.
12th place goes to Moss who spent $380 but she missed a question. Her answer time was 15:03.
11th place goes to Goose who spent $0 as they went straight to the questions and got one wrong answer. Their answer time was 10:47.
10th place goes to Nerf who spent $570 but also got a question wrong. His answer time was 9:39.
Moving onto single digit...
9th place goes to Vikram who also spent $570 but got a question wrong. His answer time was 8:49.
8th place goes to Sophie who spent no money and got one wrong answer. Her time was 7:32.
The top 7 all got a perfect 9/9 score and all 7 spent a couple of minutes to watch the video before knowing the questions.
It comes down to how fast they answered the questions. Impressively all finished in less than 10 minutes.
7th place is Jessica who spent $2090. Her time was 9:06.
6th place is Deaze who spent $1330. His time was 8:01.
We're down to five - Bloody, Borges, Clink, Jonas, Zach. Two of you would walk away with individual immunity...
It won't be you, Jonas. 5th place goes to Jonas who spent $760. His time was 6:16.
In 4th place, we have Zach who spent $1520. His time was 5:53.
Down to three. 2nd place and 3rd place were very close. So we will reveal them last for suspense.
1st place did so well. It's pretty impressive....
With a time of 2:18 and a perfect score
BORGES WINS IMMUNITY!
$pecies: Borges spent $1900 in this challenge. That 10 min of watching must have paid off in this case? One more immunity necklace to be won. It's between Bloody and Clink.
Bloody spent $1710 to study while Clink spent $1140. 3:12 vs 3:55...
BLOODY WINS IMMUNITY!
Congrats Borges and Bloody! You have both won immunity to avoid being one of the bloodbath victims.

HOW DID I WIN THIS IMMUNITY NECKLACE? I took no notes. I’M DEAD. Clink just sent me the notes he took and they were extensive. BUT FINAL 11 I CAN DEAL WITH THAT. It sucks I won it with Borges as it feels like that’s a big target I’m making, but it buys me time and also gives me the opportunity to talk less and lower my visibility a bit.

OMG YOU SUCKERS I WON DOUBLE IMMUNITY AND I'LL BE HERE FOR FINAL 11! It feels so [bleeping] good to have immunity. I honestly want that every round even though I might get a target for it. Vikram might be crying rivers right now. We love to see it. Imma go so hard on him.

These guys are more sweaty than you would get in the deserts of Saudi Arabia. I swear to god they went in HARD to win the challenge, which was good for them. Personally I just threw the challenge, no point in me trying to make myself look like a threat even more than I could be. People do know I have a high chance of not going home anytime soon, and I wanna use that to the fullest. For the challenge, I think a lot of them wanted it, because there's SO many conflicts within the game, people wanna be secure and safe. Me? I don't have any conflicts with anyone even though Jonas is TRYING his best to convince me Jessica doesn't like me, which I just don't believe at all but I'll feed into it for the sake of it. Jonas is insane but I wanna get him to trust me.

I'm sure you all have been speculating about it?
Well, before we get to that, you have tasks to complete. Firstly, drop your buffs.
This is the new buff you will be wearing from now on!
Jonas: How are 2 people going to get voted out at 1 tribal?
Goose: DON'T SPOIL THE FUN!
$pecies: Congrats on merge! A merge feast is waiting for you back at camp. After the feast, please come up with a name for your merged tribe and then you will head to tribal council to vote not one but two players out, BACK TO BACK!
Jonas: Why do you hate us?
$pecies: Two of you will leave us soon. Enjoy your time here while it lasts.

Borges: I like the moon idea!
Jonas: Alqamar is moon in Arabic.
Borges: Alqamar sounds nice.
Jonas: It sounds like we gonna be making potions.
Clink: Yay I like that!
Everyone agrees on "Alqamar" and draw their name onto the merge flag.

I loved the double elimination because I thought we'd be split and it would be easier to take someone I want out, but that's not the case, it's still good though since I’m immune and think Clink, Simon and Moss will be 100% safe for now.
Simon | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
This delayed merge is a hilarious idea because that always forces people to think about a lot of potential circumstances. This double tribal elimination isn't that scary as I thought before, I was afraid at some point that the top 2 people with the most votes in a single tribal would be voted out. But with our format, it is a little easier to predict what will happen.
Deaze | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Woooo! Glad I made merge in $urvivor! But this back-to-back vote twist is making me nervous. I am going to try my damndest to not end up being taken out.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! MERGE MERGE MERGE! I MADE IT TO THE MERGE! That's one major goal down! I know I've said this like ten bajillion times, but I am so goddamn proud of the fact I've made it this far. Every day I am here, I am proving myself as not just a competent player, but a good one. And as someone who has really bad imposter syndrome about almost everything, the fact that I am still here is amazing.

- 2 Idol Tokens
Having noticed the idol clues that were hidden at the last challenge and the merge feast, several players went on a mission to look for advantages around camp.
Vikram | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Everyone is going to the forest. Some clues must be at the challenge. Simon wanted the location of my idol token when I found it and he said he found a new clue. I said I will search for a new clue and then tell him. I’m not finding any clue, so I'm gonna lie to him about a location I found and get the clue from him. It's a no lose situation for me.
Deaze | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
God I will never find a token this $eason. I will just have to focus on targeting those that I know have them, like Moss. I like Borges but man I know he is a good player because he instinctively knows which challenges to go for and is obviously clued in on where the tokens lie.
Simon | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I love how Deaze and Vikram are staying in random locations around camp to look at other people in these locations. That's annoying because we can't check anything.
Borges found an idol token at the forest and told no one while Nerf found one at the well and he immediately shared the news with Clink. Separately, Jonas found a new extortion advantage.
Clink | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Nerf found a token! If he gave it to me, I’d have a full idol, especially helpful!
Jonas | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
(finds an extortion advantage that would block a player from being eligible to win immunity at Final 8) Me being chaotic evil, I’m going to extort someone for $3900, even though I’ll gain nothing. I’ll probably wait until the last minute to use it though because unlike an idol, if I go home with it in my pocket, it doesn't mean anything. It can’t help me until Final 8 anyways.

ALQAMAR
The players describe the chaotic dynamics of the 13-person tribe to the camera.
Goose | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Chaos. Anarchy. Imagine throwing a box of rabid raccoons into a Macy's, or starting a fistfight on the floor of Congress. That's what the dynamics of this tribe are like right now. It’s BONKERS.
Bloody | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
This is chaotic. A bunch of tiny overlapping alliances waiting to implode. This next vote will be very telling. I could see a reality in which I’m blindsided here if Jonas’ side gets selfish, but I could also see the vote going easy and taking out someone like Jessica. Who knows with these people.
Borges | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
We have a trio in Nerf, Deaze and Zach which needs to lose at least a member, we got a duo in Sophie and Jonas, we got a trio in me, Goose and Bloody that will fall apart due to conflicting interests, and we have a trio within me, Moss and Simon which will probably stay tight. We also have a duo in Goose and Clink. As for enemies, Jonas and Bloody hate each other, Vikram is mad at Jonas, me and Vikram have vendettas against each other, Zach is apparently coming for me, Goose wants Sophie out as soon as possible, and Zach hates Clink. That's all I know so far.
Jonas | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
What a damn mess. I see 3 trios - Me/Sophie/Moss, Borges/Bloody/Goose, Nerf/Zach/Deaze.

Nerf | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Everyone hates each other. There are SO many conflicts within the game I'm trying to take advantage of - Jessica vs Moss, Jonas and Sophie, Goose vs Sophie, Bloody vs Jonas. Zach vs OG Khutob, Borges vs Vikram, Deaze having an idol apparently and I'm just trying to make sure I'm not on the bad side of ANYTHING here. I do have some allies within the game, Borges just asked me to ally, Simon says he'll make sure he's good with me. Basically I wanna USE these conflicts in order to take some shit in my hands and use it to my advantage to the fullest. Play the social card AS MUCH as possible in the game right now.
Simon | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
You can never fully know what is going on and who is going after whom. But we know that few people are not “friends” in this game. And from what I know: Zach has a problem with all OG Khutob, Bloody and Jonas don't like each other, Borges and Vik don't like each other, Deaze is trying to hide that he was in control in Khutob 2.0 and most people are annoyed by Deaze because he is lying for no reason. There are also a few obvious groups: Zach/Deaze/Nerf, Borges/Goose/Bloody, Borges/Moss/Simon, Goose/Clink/Sophie, Jonas/Sophie/Moss, Jonas/Sophie/Simon/Clink, Jonas/Sophie/Simon/Clink/Borges/Moss, and lots of duos. That's why the merge vote will be really interesting - basically we can see a really easy Jess/Vikram vote but we can also get a really close 7-6 vote. We can literally go either way.
Sophie | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
There's a lot of stress in the game, though this entire game has just been stressful. So far it has caused a lot of chaos and confusion and all I'm trying to do is navigate myself through the mess. A few people are trying to be smart but failing, with chaos and backstabbing intertwined throughout.

I don't feel super comfortable because guess what… Sophie’s with me again! I know she's working with other people because last time it came out after the fact all the alliances she was in, so for sure she's doing it again. Jonas said Sophie wanted me in her alliance so I guess that's good but I just have to be careful.
Jessica | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I feel like there’s no one I can trust and I just feel so iffy. I’m trying to find my people but it feels like I’m in a high school cafeteria where everyone already has their cliques and there’s nowhere to sit. I think there’s two sides. Well, there’s three groups, but two of the groups are working together. We have the trio of Borges, Bloody, and Goose, and the trio of Moss, Jonas, and Sophie - who I think have joined forces to work together. They also have Clink in their pocket. Then we have Deaze, Vikram, Simon, Nerf, and Zach who are a group. And then we have me who both groups are trying to grab to use and then throw away.

Everyone scrambled messily to make sure they won't on the wrong side of the numbers at the first post-merge tribal council.
Borges | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Right now I NEED to take at least one of Zach and Vikram out, and take one of Zach, Nerf and Deaze out in the following round. My ideal targets are taking both Zach and Vikram at once because I’d have an excuse of blindsiding anyone. Also, Nerf is really pissing me off right now trying to get a ton of info from me and pretending like he is cool with everything.
Bloody | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I’ve got my eye on Goose. The dude is playing multiple angles I’m sure of it. Is it bad that I want Goose to go here? I want to lose a number from the perceived “trio” of me, him and Borges. Borges feels legit still. Jonas is too easy to read, I think he’s fueling the chaos but also not smart enough to hide that. Nerf sucks. Quite honestly, let the rumors flow. My unproblematic ass is going to be away from the mess for a bit.
Deaze | @Alqamar
- 1 Idol Token
![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I NEED to ensure I am not anyone’s #1 and #2 choice here. I've put in quite some work with a majority of the tribe so I don't feel in danger, but both Sophie and Moss scare me. If I can get someone to throw either of their names our first then I need to push that thought around as subtly as I can. Either or even both of them going would greatly help my game and leave me with numerous options on how to traverse the rest of this merge. I am not tied to anyone obvious except Khutob 2.0 and Jessica, but I doubt anyone has any clue how close I actually am to Jonas, Borges, Bloody, and Goose. I know they would not go along with a vote that had my name on the block as they would all potentially lose a number from their perspective, when in reality I haven't fully committed the direction of where I want my game to head. Needless to say, today will be a very busy day of social gaming, and the harder I work, the better my results will be at tonight’s tribal.
Moss | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I'm in a good spot. I know my name has been out there a bit but I have enough connections with people that the information keeps flowing back to me and they keep redirecting it away from me. I also told Jonas that we need to tell people we barely talk so they don't suspect us as a duo. If they take a shot at a duo it would be him/Sophie and then I can push to save him. Also, I told Borges at our OG tribe to keep our duo secret and I think he's smart enough to do that cuz he sees the benefit in keeping us a secret. It also helps that people think he's closer to Simon, so even if they see me/him/Simon as an OG Khutob 3, the focus will always be them 2 as a duo. I can also cross-reference with all other players on the tribe to find out everything that's happening, while I continue to position myself in the middle so I can decide what's best for my game.
Simon | @Alqamar

If I had a choice, I would go for Zach and Deaze since they took a huge part in Lars' elimination and that would be my revenge. But my alliance agreed on going for an easy vote in the first part of the vote, and that would be either Jess or Vik because they didn't really build deep connections with other people. We also want to make Deaze paranoid to flush his idol in the first vote.
Sophie | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
My plan is just to lay low and try to survive. I’m failing thus far, but I’m doing better than I anticipated, because I was SO tempted to go confront Deaze, Zach and Vikram, but I held myself back because I don't wanna be another Jonas. I'm using this to hoist myself into better positions generally because of the chaos, and I’m hearing a shit ton of things from everywhere.
Vikram | @Alqamar

This is a totally messy bloodbath. Names that I have thrown or heard so far include me, Jessica, Sophie and Zach. I threw out Jessica's name… Wait. [Bleep]. Me gunning for Jessica means that her and I are the two vote outs. If us 2 work together, then well…
Jessica | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Ok soooo started off this tribal with my name out in the air apparently by Vikram. So I shoved this idea into Nerf and his head that those two trios I mentioned earlier (Borges/Bloody/Goose and Moss/Jonas/Sophie) are working together and if I go home they are just gonna run the game. So I got that group to then go crazy, while I stay without a big target on my head and then Vik no longer wants me gone.
Zach | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Basically Vikram was saying how Jonas, Goose, Bloody, Borges, Sophie and Moss were in a 6 person alliance. By this point Jessica and Vikram were gonna be the two votes. Vikram and Jessica were planning on voting each other and then whoever goes out, goes out, followed by the next vote, which would be the other. Vikram, being smart, figured it out. I do like Vikram and it seemed like he was on the bottom so I started thinking of maybe a different vote. I went to Goose and Jonas (the revenge-tour-2021 alliance) and asked them about it because I trust them and they should know about this.

Now, I know a name has already been thrown out in Jessica, which I wouldn't be against: but at the same time my ideal target for someone to go is someone like Moss. I feel like Moss won't change ANYTHING to the course of the game because she can move all over the place and she isn't directly the attention of any conflicts. Even with Jessica vs Sajid, she's focusing on Sophie and Jonas: not Moss. Moss is easily able to be free of anything right now in the game and I feel like with that, Moss would be someone I would want to see go home. I feel like Jessica, me, Vikram, Zach, Deaze, Simon would do it, whilst others are too focused on killing each other.
Moss | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
So I lied to Nerf today and said I heard you were pushing my name. I literally didn't, I just wanted to throw that out. He's like, well all I said was you’re in a majority alliance and admits he talked about targeting me! I totally milked it and was like, how can I trust you now? He’s like, ohh I wanna prove it to you. So we’ll see.
Deaze | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I was hoping to make a big play tonight by taking Moss out but maybe I shouldn't have trusted Nerf and Vik to carry out such an ambitious plan. My fear is being associated with them and being targeted first instead because now I'm being extorted by someone anonymously for my idol tokens. Luckily I have none but this is a huge signal that either the rumor of Jessica giving me an idol has caught on, or that there is a plan to take me out here.

Simon is the most dangerous right now by far. Everyone I talk to, I say where'd you hear that from? Simon. Who are you close with? Simon. That’s from Clink, Nerf, and Vik. He’s well insulated right now. I kinda want Deaze to go because keeping Zach in keeps him going at Borges/Simon, and Deaze threw my name out, so we don't want that.
Clink | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I threw out Zach’s name to Jonas and Borges. I don’t care so lemme go a lil bit over the top here. I think this also hides my tracks? It’ll look like I’m good with Borges and Jonas!

I don't know who to trust honestly. I want Jonas [bleeping] gone. I'm sick of this dude. Clink is keeping me up, but I am NOT on the top at all. Everyone thinks I'm with Deaze. Deaze may be the smarter person to go because everyone believes I'm with him, and now people think Zach, Deaze and I are a trio. I'm just gonna let shit blow up and try to keep myself in the clear. Clink is just telling me everything. I need to use Clink as a way to be able to get information. Zach needs to [bleeping] go home. Jonas is saying ZACH told him what's going on. Zach’s the one who told Jonas about the "majority" I was spewing, I'm turning the vote onto Zach now for that.
Clink | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I think I blew Zach up! Jonas said that Zach was telling him that Nerf was spreading a rumor about the majority alliance, and now Nerf is spiraling and exposing Zach, and Zach is the vote now. YES SIR. HELP! I for real think I got Zach targeted. OMG?! Nerf wants Zach out. I'm so EXCITED. Dude I think I’m actually in the middle and I’m relishing every moment.
Goose | @Alqamar
![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
WHAT THE [BLEEP] HAS HAPPENED? I am frankly confused. So apparently, either Nerf or Zach tried to push that there was an alliance of 6 forming between myself, Borges, Bloody, Moss, Jonas, and Sophie in an attempt to push votes onto Sophie as a threat. The tricky part of this whole thing is that this alliance does not exist, and both Zach and Nerf are throwing each other under the bus for being the one who created the lie. So now the rest of us are trying to figure out what actually happened, but either way nobody can really trust either of them now, which sucks, because Zach and I were revenge tour buddies! And voting Sophie would be part of the revenge tour! But TIMING and REASONING. Like I said, I would love to get Sophie the Snake out of the game but this is NOT when and how you should go about this. I have Nerf above Zach on my trust rankings because it seems like Nerf is the one telling the truth, but that does not mean I trust him in the slightest.
Borges | @Alqamar

We have some tea right now between Jonas and Nerf, and both are coming to me which is either good or a trap. It's looking like I may be able to push for Zach first but it may be harder to do Vikram second. But if I get one of those first, it doesn't matter too much to me who is second. I [bleeping] love double immunity because I can do and say whatever I want because those people know they are seeing my face for at least two more rounds. I want to take a leap of faith and trust Nerf for these two rounds so I will try to protect him.
Bloody | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Borges is the perfect shield! This man does literally the most on the round he is IMMUNE after winning first place. His threat and visibility levels are through the [bleeping] roof. To be honest, it’s in my best interest to keep my boy Vik around. I don’t even care if he’s gunning for me, the more the merrier. It makes my immediate threat level next to zero in the coming rounds, because who would want to get me out when I’ve got Jonas and Vikram actively pursuing me? At this point, I’d rather keep Vik’s messy ass than keep Deaze, Zach or Nerf.
Nerf | @Alqamar

My foot is BACK in the sand. This tribal council may help me be able to find some footing with multiple people in the game by disassociating myself with Deaze and Zach and making sure I AM NOT seen with them, and I can be seen as A FREE NUMBER in the game. My strategy is to try and submit myself as a number to people in the game, not too solid with them, but to where I'm needed. Everyone in the game will need me come Final 11.
Deaze | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
So best case scenario was we pull a blindside on someone who was not very high on my trust ranking, but since both Vik and Nerf are incapable of executing a blindside, I have to fallback on the original plan and just take out Vik, who lied to me anyways about his stupid idol token charade at the last EoE.
Simon | @Alqamar

What the [bleep] is Deaze talking about? First thing he started talking to me because he thought that I was in control of OG Khutob. Deaze once again proved to me that this dude is lying again and again. The second thing is Nerf can't control his own shit and I don't believe at all that he was able to control Khutob 2.0 like Deaze claims. The third thing both Clink and Nerf confirm is that Deaze was in control and the words of two people are more believable to me than the word of someone who has a record of lying to my face.
Nerf | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
By pushing Deaze and Zach, kicking them while they are down: it may have saved my game. I'm not seen with them anymore, NO ONE believes that I was spreading shit because I purposefully made it sound SO STUPID that it made no sense, just in case if this scenario actually happened. My reputation of being able to make myself look like I DON'T like to lie, is exactly what's helping me get further on in this game. I have to work my ass off today and yesterday to at least separate myself from them.
Zach | @Alqamar

I am feeling very low right now, something doesn't feel right. I feel like I might be getting votes. It doesn't help that Nerf is completely interrogating me, asking a lot about my OG Khutob tribe - whether I trust them or anything like that. I said I don't have a problem with them and he was very curious about that. I would think that would read as I am good with them, like I'm not holding a grudge even though Moss and Borges backstabbed me back then. If I need to work with them I will.
Clink | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I actually am so hyped, I didn’t realize me leaking that to Nerf would cause this giant mess and it isn’t even coming back to me!!! I’m literally so excited.
Simon | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
Nerf is pissing me off as well, like that dude has the audacity to complain to me that he isn’t informed about the vote, when in reality he can't keep his mouth shut and he keeps running around spreading some weird shit to all people around and then he is surprised that people don't want tell him what is going on. Like dude you voted out Lars. YOU ARE ON MY LIST TO BE VOTED OUT.
Jessica | @Alqamar
![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I have Sophie asking me to vote with them and is giving me all this information. But can I really trust the girl? I don’t think I can really do anything this first vote. They are voting out Deaze which sucks but oh well the guy is a threat and I think I could get his jury vote anyways. Ugh I really need to figure out how to get out of this position as I’m not just gonna be someone to drag along the entire game. I think I got the target off my back here which is nice. I wish I could get the vote to go my way but it’s sadly not gonna happen.
Jonas | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
So ideally for this first vote I am thinking to play it safe and try to draw an idol play and then on the second vote my alliance can go for a bigger move. Deaze scares me. He tried to take advantage of me when I was drunk after the merge feast to get me to tell him all my secrets. Now I may have been wasted but I was NOT that sloppy.
Moss | @Alqamar

I’m in an alliance with Jonas, Simon, Borges, Clink, and Sophie which is looking to have the majority vote. The names going around are Zach, Vikram, and Jess. They kinda want Zach or Jess so that Vikram/Deaze flush an idol and then on second vote do one of those other ones. I don't really have a strong preference on any of those because Zach or Deaze going here fits in with my plan so that would be ideal. I kinda wanna vote in the minority to put a vote on someone else, but I think Jonas makes people describe their parchment if I remember correctly, so I’ll see.
Sophie | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
I don't think the people pushing for the split vote are considering the backlash that will come of that. Like sure, I’m going along with it because I don’t have much of a choice at the moment, but the backlash of not keeping Nerf, Vik, and Jess in the loop will be too great. I’m likely going to end up telling Nerf and Jess last second because I don't want them to have a reason to hold a grudge against me.
Bloody | @Alqamar ![MergeIcon MergeIcon](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/869095314974470184.png)
The fact of the matter is, I don’t even care if this round is a blindside, because I have been nothing but honest (sometimes in a way that compromises others, oops) and I’m hoping that even in the worst case scenario of Vikram or Nerf or Simon or Goose going, that I’m seen as a valuable number to pick up.
$pecies: Congratulations on making the merge! The merge vote is traditionally a very tricky one. Now, you're starting off quick by having two votes in a row! Certainly we have a lot to talk about. First of all, Borges and Bloody, how does it feel to have won the double immunity? Did you think you needed it?
↳ Borges: It feels AWESOME because I really needed it, otherwise I know I'd be receiving votes since I was told multiple times my name was wandering around before immunity even started. So I couldn't ask for anything else, especially on a double tribal council. I'd be a lot paranoid if I did not have this necklace tonight.
↳ Bloody: Obviously it feels pretty great, after a merge (yay!) and double elimination announcement (boo!). The game is so up in the air right now. So do I think I needed it? I have no [bleeping] clue, y'all tell me. All I know is I'm thankful to be here.
$pecies: Clink and Zach, given the money system in this game, is there such a concept as being a challenge threat? How do you evaluate the potential challenge capabilities of your fellow castaways, and how much of that factors into your vote?
↳ Clink: I think a challenge threat fully depends on money status. I usually suck butt at challenges but the whole "you can have an extra cushion to fall back on" with the money is actually really nice! I just hope the future challenges require us bidding and not doing anything because this last challenge was hella stressful. It won't factor in my vote because... why would it if u got so much money and you already suck at challenges, I won't look at you as a target to be honest.
↳ Zach: A challenge threat is someone who is consistently good at challenges I would say, this is the first merge challenge so there's not much to base anything off of. I do think money just adds another level on top of the challenges, if you have more to spend you might have better chances in this game. It's hard to evaluate on capabilities because some people might even be throwing challenges so you never really know everyone's potential.
$pecies: Jonas and Deaze, we're at Final 13 now. At the Final 10, the money that all of you stashed away at the beginning of the game will be returned to you. Is it common knowledge how much each one of you stashed away? Is that a consideration at all in determining whether to vote someone off before the Final 10?
↳ Jonas: How many rich people have been voted out of this game already? Quite a few. Their money didn’t do them much good when they needed it, so to be honest, the safety deposit box is not of much concern to me. I personally only got $420
in there though.
↳ Deaze: I think everyone's aware of the amount they saved at the start but in regards to how much we individually banked being common knowledge, there has definitely been no mention of it. I'm also kind of skeptical of where all our money is being kept in $audi Arabia as I fully expect our money to earn some interest rate with the rise in all of the worlds economies. I doubt this is a big enough factor to determining who will be targeted in the future rounds but you never know what criteria everyone is thinking about. Some might feel money is an issue and that might be a factor in targeting players in the game.
$pecies: Jessica and Sophie, in terms of idols and advantages, how many of these do you think are still in the game? Is it common knowledge as to who has idol token(s) and/or advantages? How do you think this will factor into the vote?
↳ Jessica: Hmmm I think there must be a lot of different stuff out there. I’m guessing it’s a twist heavy season especially with 7 new advantages being hidden at camp and not that I know of, I do not think that it is public knowledge as to who has what. I think it will factor into people’s paranoia and second thoughts, etc. It will just make people feel more on edge but it also makes the game more fun so it will be fun to see what happens.
↳ Sophie: I mean idol tokens I feel are always on everyone’s mind in terms of the actions they take, especially now since I'd assume there was recently an influx of advantage and token obtaining because of the merge. I'd assume there’s just a small handful left, though of course you never know.
$pecies: Nerf and Vikram, this is a double elimination - two votes in a row. How does the prospect of a second elimination right after this vote impact your voting strategy?
↳ Nerf: It gets a lot of people thinking of hypothetical situations, which does impact a lot of things. I think I can speak to most people here that they're worried about the 2nd tribal with whispering all of that, and it's clear chaos is going to be coming soon eventually. My voting strategy is just to make sure I'm in the clear and going with the majority of the votes, in full honesty $pecies. I feel like a lot of people are thinking the same as me and I feel like with a tribal like this, it's the best course of action.
↳ Vikram: .Nice question to me, $pecies. The prospect of a second elimination impacts only when you can survive a first elimination. If you can't survive that, then it's a waste of talking two eliminations. My name has been thrown out and this ain't a secret. So my major concern is survive first vote, and then in second vote, there will be whispers and stuff and we will know who is talking to who and also there may be some live public chaos or anything (teaser: I am not good publicly, so I may be part of a chaos. So I'm just trying to keep the name off of me in first vote and prove to people why keeping me is good for their game (which includes reason like I just used my tokens last tribal, I have "feuds" and misunderstandings with few people and honestly, I'm the least threatening - yes, I'm taking this opportunity to plead my case. So I'm not even thinking of a second vote at the momnet, my aim - survive #1 and hope for chaos or something #2.
↳ Jonas: I mean one way to keep your name outta people’s mouth for the first vote is to threaten chaos if you’re still around for the 2nd! ![rolling_eyes ?](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f644.svg)
![joy ?](https://twemoji.maxcdn.com/2/svg/1f602.svg)
$pecies: Goose, Moss and Simon, coming into the merge, we have a 5-4-4 split in swapped tribe numbers. However, many of the relationships are blurred by the original tribes and the amount of time you have had to spend with those from other tribes, whether at the Edge, or the challenges, or the shared camp. How much do you think tribal lines will feature at the upcoming votes?
↳ Goose: I think tribal lines could play a factor, since people naturally feel more comfortable working with people they already know. But like you said, those lines have been so blurred for so long because of all of the different twists that have happened this $eason. So since a lot of people knew each other outside of the context of their swapped tribes, those lines are definitely going to be blurry.
↳ Moss: I'm not too sure as it would depend on each person and the individual connections they've made at OG, swap and now merge. It's always important to have an open mind in this game and listen and try to find trust in those you connect with.
↳ Simon: At that point in the game, tribal connections don't really matter that much because during pre-merge we had a chance to meet a lot of different people and with that, no one really knows what will happen. And sometimes OG tribal connections can hurt someone's game more than help them.
$pecies: I guess we will find out soon what matters. It is time to vote. Bloody, you're up first.
One by one, the players make their way to the voting booth to vote.
Bloody (votes against Zach)
I barely know you, so why is my name in your mouth? Time to pack, Zach.
Vikram (votes against Deaze)
I'm really sorry, you were the first person I talked game with. But as I have said, as long as it ain't me.
Zach (votes against Vikram)
I wish we could have worked together but once you start dragging my name in the mud it's hard to work with each other.
$pecies retrieves the voting urn.
$pecies: If anyone has idol tokens and would like to play them, now would be the time to do so.

Everyone starts whispering to each other to seek confirmation or clarifications on who they're voting this time.
Sophie: I am so sorry I didn’t loop you in on the Zach part of the vote, I was told to stay quiet 'cause they wanted to prevent me going out in case of an idol play since Deaze and Zach were pushing me. I get it if you don’t trust me here but once there’s a solid vote down, I’ll let you know asap, no tricks or anything.
Nerf: You're good. I don't care.
Sophie: HOMIE I'VE BEEN FREAKING OUT 'CAUSE I WAS OUT HERE HAVING TO LIE TO YOUR FACE AND I HATED IT. Lying is ICKY.
Nerf: It's fine, I promise. Trust me I get it but I hope this proves that I'm not with him.
Vikram: Will I be safe this tribal?
Jonas: Yeah you should be fine, just run it back on Deaze now that we know he doesn't have an idol.
Vikram: What's this, dude? They didn't vote with us, now we have burnt bridges with Deaze. What we gonna do? Any idea?
Nerf: They lied to us, we need to work with Bloody and Goose.
Vikram: Jonas lied again that, this was to check if Deaze has an idol. I have a plan, to tell Bloody to vote Jonas and then later ask her if Borges and Goose are down and us 3 is 6. This is best for all of us as Jonas is playing both sides and he has a lot of power. If we think he has an idol token, we can vote Sophie?
Nerf: I think we need to put some votes on Jonas too. We can try it!
Vikram: Thanks for watching out for me. Do you think there is another name this tribal other than me? Again, you need not tell me the name.
Bloody: You’re so welcome. I’m not sure if things have changed at all, but last vote the only people I heard voice your name was Borges and Deaze. As far as I know, you’re good this round. I’ll whisper around. I would think people would want to keep you because Borges and you are clear enemies lmao.
Vikram: So Jonas is playing both sides and I think Borges will work with him to get rid of me but I figured he isn't good for both of our games. He will throw me utb anytime and he will gun for you if you don't have immunity. Now we have the chance to take him out. The Qummah 5 + Nerf is already 6/12. He is a snake and he is super sneaky. Nerf told me that we should work together and I trust you and Goose. So I can rope in Nerf and Simon, while you can talk to Borges and Goose if possible. Let me know if this will work. We can vote Sophie too in case we think he will have an idol.
Bloody: WHAT! That’s so lame. I agree with you, I think if given the opportunity, Jonas will come for either of us in a heartbeat. Let me feel around and see but I’m definitely not opposed to it. And again, I’m pretty certain you’re not the vote here. And aww I love Nerf.
Goose: Hi bestie!
Bloody: Hi bestie! It sounds like Vikram and Nerf are pushing for Jonas to go here.
Goose: I have not heard anything from Vikram yet, but I'll wait for them to hit me up.
Nerf: Sorry to cut to game but just wanna let you know, Sophie and Jonas both lied to me about Deaze getting majority just to lie, so thank you for telling me the truth. I still was gonna vote Deaze just in case of idol. Goose and Borges told me the truth too.
Bloody: Of course Nerf! You know Jonas and I have major trust issues, so I feel that. Glad I could help last round and will try and do the same again. As far as I heard pre-whispers, you should be fine.
Nerf: Sophie and Jonas intentionally lied to me so I'd vote Deaze. Weirdos.
Clink: I thought the plan was to always split the vote and let you in on it, these nerds. Regardless I do know they want to do Deaze this vote. So yay!
Nerf: I don't understand why they unnecessarily lied to me. I don't care but just weird.
Clink: I’m gonna whisper to them so I can see if they’re still on board for Deaze.
Goose: I'm glad we made it through the last vote. Now the real chaos begins!
Nerf: I'm not very happy bout the vote 'cause Jonas and Sophie lied to me for no reason. I knew majority was on Zach but they kept telling me "GO DEAZE!".
Goose: Why do people have to be so EXTRA? I guess they didn't know you knew the vote so they wanted to use your vote as idol insurance.
Nerf: Yeah, I guess. I just don't see the reason why they would lie to me for no reason. I don't care as much but Vikram is PISSED.
Goose: Why is he mad? Wasn't he just trying to survive? I thought he was just in survival mode?
Nerf: Oh 'cause they lied to him too for no reason, which I get. He got lied too at a crucial moment where he COULD have been voted out. I do like his proposal, because I think after this, Sophie's gonna target you.
Goose: I guess my main concern is timing. If Deaze catches wind the vote is going off of him he is going to drill it in. I would rather eliminate that threat now before he weasels his way deep.
Clink: Do you think we should just stick with what we know and do either Deaze or Vik?
Goose: That's what I've been hearing too but apparently Nerf and Vik are trying to target Sophie and Jonas.
Clink: Do they really think they can get a majority on them with the whispers? Like I'm all for it but at the same time it seems unlikely, especially since it’s Vik who wants to call the shots...Mr. leaker!!
Goose: I have no idea if they can figure out a way to flip the vote off of him, but the fact that the two people trying to lead this are two of the least trust-able people in the game makes it suspicious as [bleep].
Clink: Yeah agreed, those two re desperate for any power and I don’t wanna give them any. Deaze is gonna go full haywire with his campaigns.
Vikram: Thanks for watching out for me. I think Bloody or Nerf may have whispered to you about the plan for this vote that the Qummah 5 + Nerf are 6/12 and we could target Jonas or Sophie if Jonas has an idol. He is playing both sides and I know Borges may wanna vote me here but that just gives these people to work on making us opposite sides.
Goose: VIK! I think I heard that from someone, but I haven't heard a whole lot of conclusive stuff about this second vote.
Vikram: I hope you consider working with me after all dramas I've caused. I trust you and Bloody since you guys have assured me I was safe in the first vote. I don't want others pitting me and Borges against each other.
Vikram: I hope that Jessica and Deaze won't vote me this time. Do you think I should talk to Jess and Deaze, maybe as a united force, split the vote between Jonas and Sophie?
Nerf: That can blow up in your face trying to do that, and I think it was Zach and Deaze who voted you, not Jess.
Vikram: If this is not working out, do you think we should just vote Deaze since he may not have the idol?
Nerf: I don't know, honestly 'cause he's gonna vote you or me most likely.
Jessica: Before the first vote, I asked Jonas what he planned on doing and he said Zach and Deaze and whichever doesn’t go at first take out at second. I'm not sure if that’s still happening or not.
Goose: That's what I've heard too, but other people are trying to make a risky move.
Jessica: Well I’m down for anything honestly, I'm pretty much a free agent. I trusted Sophie again and it didn’t work out too well for me. She and Jonas kept telling me the first vote was Deaze the whole day but it’s whatever.
♀️
Goose: My concern with making a move like that is that I don't know if now is the right time to make that move just because hella people leak info.
Jessica: I’m not saying it needs to be done now, just kinda tired of getting screwed by her every time I turn around. Just want to survive this messy double first.
Goose: I'm not hearing your name at all so I think we have pretty good odds of making it through. And I would gladly lead a snake extermination expedition with you!
Nerf: So we're on the same boat once again.. me, you and Vik were all lied to... Ironic 'cause I keep saying this is a group we need.
Jessica: I don't know what they are getting out of lying but oh well...
Nerf: Genuine question. Did you give Deaze an idol? Like everyone's been worried about it and saying you did so I wanted to ask.
Jessica: Oh no I lied about that to Sophie to give her one final test and she failed it!
Nerf: AHAHAHAHA YOU'VE CAUSED SO MUCH [BLEEPING] CHAOS, JESSICA. EVERYONE THINKS HE HAS AN IDOL. SHE SPREAD THAT TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE.
Jessica: I used it as a way to see if I could still trust her with important info and well... that failed tremendously but glad it caused her to be paranoid it’s what she deserves.
Nerf: VIK VIK VIK, DEAZE DOESNT HAVE AN IDOL. JESSICA LIED ABOUT IT TO SOPHIE AND SOPHIE SPREAD IT TO EVERYONE IN THE GAME.
Vikram: So we can just vote Deaze?
Goose: The chaos is beginning. Vik and Nerf are trying to flip the votes onto Sophie.
Bloody: So they’ve now put out THREE NAMES for this vote??
Goose: Yup, not to mention Borges still wants to do Vik. I think things might be settling back onto Deaze, but I'm still unsure.
Nerf: All I've heard is that Vik wants to do Jonas here, I know he's saying "Nerf is down" but realistically I think Deaze should go here and we focus on going for Jonas / Sophie next vote.
Bloody: I’ll be honest, I'm less enthusiastic about voting Deaze here but I also wanna vote with majority so if that’s an easy vote I’ll do what’s needed.
Nerf: Would you prefer to get rid of Jonas here? If so.. tell Vik!
Clink: I guess Nerf has been hella campaigning based off all his whispers.
Goose: Oh 100%, he really wants this Sophie vote to happen without people knowing it's him.
Clink: I mean go Nerf for campaigning but I hope he remembers that he’s trusting Vik of all people to not throw him utb or tell Sophie.
Goose: Yeah I also don't really know how much I can even trust Nerf. I literally met him like three days ago and he's trying to act like my closest ally.
Clink: At least we know he’s dedicated to the whole anti Sophie thing, but like let's see if he can keep his mouth shut and not go crazy over this.
Jonas: Are we still doing Deaze?
Goose: It seems like it. Vik and Nerf were trying super hard to flip the votes off of themselves even though it was never on them.
Jonas: Has anything changed?
Clink: Just me tryna confirm that we should do Deaze/Vik this vote with other peeps.
Jonas: Should we put majority on Deaze and then throw a couple of votes on Vik in case Deaze has like balls of steel and somehow kept an idol through last round?
Clink: I’m okay with that! Vik seemed pretty pissed that he got lied to or something.
Vikram: I just got to know that Jess lied about Deaze having an idol on the first vote and now that it's out in the air, we shall vote him right? I hope Borges isn't voting me out now.
Jonas: Yeah it looks like he didn’t actually have an idol like Jess had said he did, so it should be all good to move forward with a Deaze vote. I don’t think you’re in any danger at all, but Borges does have a reason to target you from purple tribe so like keep your eyes open because if he starts whispering to a million people that’s no good and I’ll let you know if I hear anything.
Borges: Heyoooo!
Jonas: Hey Vik and Nerf were like sketched out apparently trying to get the votes off of them but we should be fine to move forward with the Deaze vote.
Borges: I'm cool with the Deaze vote, but just a little worried about the Nerf and Vikram duo.
Simon: Something might be off. Can you try talk to Bloody and Goose to try to get info from them? I will try talk to Jonas and Nerf later because it looks like Nerf once again did some weird shit. Like that dude can't stop being paranoid. I thought that Vik has a problem with that but Nerf is on different level.
Borges: Both do crazy shit when not needed, the difference right now is Vikram NEEDS to stir up the pot and Nerf doesn't need to, but is doing anyways.
Simon: We can't whisper to not expose that much. We need to stop talking now. Whisper to other people and inform me what you find later.
Vikram: So is there any way we can actually talk and work together? I mean not just for this vote, but a couple of next ones. People think we have a fight and want to keep that goin but people also want to pit us against each other big time and widen the crack a lot.
Borges: I never close doors to anyone. The only thing that is needed is me stop hearing you throwing me utb and I'd do the same, 'cause even after I was honest with you that I did want to vote you, I heard you talked shit about me right after, which was weird since I was immune. You started going off against me simply because I was looking for idol clues, so at least for me, we don't have that huge of a problem that cant be solved.
Vikram: I'm not that big an idiot to talk shit about when you're immune. I don't know who said that to you but that's bullshit. Anyways, looking back, it's just a petty thing and like I said.
Borges: Well if this is a peace offer I accept it, but if you come after me right after you have the first chance to, I'll riot!
Vikram: Yeah this is a peace offer and thanks! And I agree to the second part. So this vote, is it Deaze?
Borges: I had heard his name before the first tribal but also heard about people that didn't want it to happen, so not sure.
Sophie: Hey Vik. I wanna say sorry about not looping you in on the Zach portion of the vote, I was kind of told to stay shushies about it, and I hope you can still trust me here. From what I know the vote isn’t on you, obviously, but no one's updating me on shit.
Vikram: I would have voted Zach had I known that but hey I don't mind that much as long as it ain't me. I still trust you and I know that we both are the ones people updating less about, let it remain that way, we can dominate in the coming future.
Sophie: Omg yes we would we would absolutely DESTROY! From what I know, the true vote for this round is on Deaze, and I promise you I'm gonna stick to the through hell and high water, 'cause I wanna prove myself to be a part of our duo here.
Sophie: Hey cutieee, have there been any updates? Are we still on Deaze?
Simon: Yeah we are still going for Deaze. I don't really have more info. Also I talked with Zach and Deaze almost whole day yesterday and I convince them to vote for Vik instead of you. So that part worked well!
Sophie: Awwww Simon, this is why you’re the best. I’m so glad that worked out well.
Sophie: HEY BITCH! What’re the updates?
Jonas: I think if I had to guess Borges is going to try to switch the vote to Vik. [Bleep] that. Keep the vote on Deaze we have enough even if the purple 3 don’t vote with them. I’d love if it was one big happy family and they didn’t try to switch it.
Borges: Heyooo just wanna say sorry for voting Zach and not letting you know but I was told you were F2 with him and he was gonna come after me.
Deaze: Oh don't even worry, you did give me a heads up and for that I am truly grateful. I was close to him but nowhere near a F2 level of trust. I totally understand. I know you're in a tough spot but I'd definitely like to repay you keeping me alive and if there is anyway I can help you here, please allow me to do so. I have no plans this tribal and my vote will probably be wasted anyways. The only players that I know have a F2 are Nerf and Vikram as it is pretty obvious now by how hard Nerf worked to save Vikram.
Borges: I told people I've been worried about Nerf and Vikram being a F2 because I don't know where they stand with anyone. I don't know where this vote is gonna go but I suppose all the names that went around last round will do again.
Deaze: I know that Nerf has some strong ties with him and would probably have used Zach more than I could ever have, as I really don't have anyone in this game. In fact I have 0 alliances in this game at this moment.
Borges: I think I ended up doing too much last vote so I'll just sit back on this one and be waiting here for what people have to say. I think this vote might be even more chaotic than the last one.
Deaze: Hey bud! No hard feelings about last night. I've enjoyed meeting you this far and you know I'm committed to working with you in this game, even with Zach gone, I still think we can both really go far in this game together.
Simon: Yeah I should apologize for not telling you that I heard that Zach was vote but I didn't know if I can really trust you.
Deaze: Oh don't worry about that. I really don't mind the vote and was just super glad you kept me over him. I was genuine about working with you though, that's why I started chatting with you as soon as we merged.
Goose: Nerf and Vik were trying to get numbers for a Sophie vote. Where do you want to go with this?
Borges: On this one I'd rather just let you or Bloody decide since I pushed for Zach to go first. I'm a little afraid of Nerf and Vikram duo as I don't know where they stand.
Goose: I think since we all know all three of them are sus as [bleep], everybody knows not to trust them so that doesn’t make them huge threats. We really have the numbers to go anywhere, but it seems like most people are landing on Deaze. I am a little bit worried about the Vik/Nerf combo, but I think having Deaze as a free agent is a little scarier.
Deaze: Just wanted to say thanks for keeping me alive at the last tribal. I'm still here and ready to make a move with you this round if needed. Otherwise I'm probably just going to waste my vote at this next tribal.
Goose: Hey dude! Nothing is set in stone yet, but I don’t think people want to make a big move. You didn’t hear this from me, but the names I’m hearing are you, Vik and Nerf.
Deaze: I just want to get out of here safely so we can use that extortion and block someone's vote next round. No one EVER knows what we're talking about and I always put in extra effort into making sure nobody is aware of our line of communication, which is why I lagged on whispering you right away. You're my #1 in this game and that will not change no matter what you hear from anyone else.
Goose: I appreciate all of that bro, and I’m really trying to keep you around, but I can’t make any promises.
Deaze: Thanks again. Don't make any sudden moves if you don't have to. I want to say that I have been hearing Vik and Nerf other than my name. I've been pushing Nerf as the vote since he is more well connected, and definitely has more tokens and money than I or Vik. Clink can confirm that Nerf has been saving all his cash from the immunity challenges because both Clink and I have been spending all the money to keep our tribe safe. Take that bit of info with you and hope it can turn into a good reason why people should take out Nerf or Vik out here.
Nerf: Just wanna say I'm sorry man. I know sorry ain't enough but just I've heard so many things about you not trusting me so I don't know what I can do. Hope you understand.
Deaze: All good man, I had your back, not sure why you would believe anyone over me but even when people were saying you thought our whole tribe was against you, I still had your back as evidence of my vote. No worries though, I just hope it's all under the bridge now and I know I don't want to make you promise anything you can't keep but I'm hoping we can actually go back to where we used to be on this next vote.
Nerf: I never once said that "the entire Khutob is against me" to anyone, I only said Zach was against me because I know Zach told Jonas about what was going on. I don't know who told you that but they're lying to your face.
Deaze: Just wanted to say I was left out of the vote yesterday but would have gladly voted in the majority if I had known. Thanks again for keeping me alive. If there is any way I can help you in this vote please allow me to do so. I have no plans this tribal and my vote will probably be wasted anyways.
Sophie: No problem man. To be honest, all I wanna know are your thoughts and such about the votes.
Deaze: I am as free of an agent I can be. I really thought Nerf had my back there but it's starting look like he and Vik voted for me and I was pretty sad about it. I know we haven't spoken much game since we only met each other a few days ago but I usually like to build a good relationship before I go into game talks, call me old fashioned. Notwithstanding, this is a game that I signed up for and I am more than willing to play this with you!
Sophie: Yeah I totally get that, and honestly same, good relationships come before game for me 'cause it’s more of a matter of comfort over trust for me.
Deaze: Hey Jess, I really appreciate you voting with me, even though we were both lied to last round. I'm still taking the heat for last round so I'm pretty sure you are in the clear this vote. From what I'm hearing it's going to be between Nerf, Vik, and myself. I'm hoping I stay in the game, since there was a lot of lying to us about Vik being the majority vote. But I think people are noticing how much stronger of a bond both Nerf and Vik have with each other, and probably have a F2 with each other seeing as how hard Nerf fought for Vik last round. I'm hoping we can find the right side that wants to keep me in the game, and send one of them to jury.
Jessica: I’m thinking of doing something dramatic
which might get me eliminated...
Simon: I have that weird feeling that something is off.
Borges: I actually also do.
Simon: Both Nerf and Vik are talking too much with Deaze. And I think that this rumor about idol was correct. They might go after me in this vote. I'm getting more and more paranoid.
Simon: Something is not right. I don't know what but I have that weird feeling that something is off.
Jonas: I have the same exact feeling. What do you want to do? We can get majority if we need to switch it up.
Simon: Question is who would be our vote if we would switch?
Jonas: Well it depends like who do you think is the problem here that’s not gonna let this go off smoothly.
Simon: I guess that we can vote for someone who isn't part of our 6.
Even more inaudible whispers take place among the players to finalize their game plan amidst the chaos and paranoia...
Sophie: Jess is mad at meeeeeeeeeee.
Jonas: I did some thinking and I think me or you might be in trouble here. If Borges is a smart player he would 100% take out one of us here because next round we would have too much power if we are both here.
Jonas: Hey, where is your head at?
Jessica: Not like my opinion really matters y’all are just gonna lie and use me.
♀️
Jonas: What do you mean? Like you literally said you had given a token to Deaze like we were trying to flush the idol. I don't know how it seems unreasonable to think you were lying to me either about how you were going to vote or about the token like I literally still told you Zach and Deaze were the two votes.
Jessica: I gave him that token because I couldn’t give it to anyone on my current tribe and he was the only one who I knew outside my tribe. I obviously didn't know he would end up like that and just cause I gave him an idol token doesn’t mean I’m just gonna work with him the whole time. I’m my own person. I even put in an effort to make Deaze feel safe that vote by telling him that Vikram was the vote. Yes you did tell me that it was Deaze and Zach which I am grateful for but you also said that it would be Deaze going first and so did others... I’m upset because I’m tired of being left out of stuff. But it’s whatever I guess.
Simon: Did you get any new info from other people about the vote?
Clink: I have not, I think they’re planning something based off the amount of whispers they’re sending around but they haven’t came to me yet.
Simon: Yeah, I think that there might be idol play.
Clink: I guess we need to get the troops together to pull another split.
Simon: That would be great plan but I don't think that there is room to do that because there won't be that clear communication so splitting votes won't be that easy like last time.
Clink: If you wanna throw a rogue vote I’ll follow you to prevent an idol play.
Jonas: I’m down…. Who though?
Clink: Maybe Vik? I don't know who else would work since this tribal really is sussy.
Jonas: Goose is the only member of that trio not immune and if anything goes wrong I got a feeling they'd be the main culprit.
Clink: Oh yea I see that too, Goose's been telling me Deaze as well but this definitely seems too EASY.
Jonas: Let’s do it - me and u switch to Goose just in case. Sophie said it’s a good idea but she doesn’t want to do it with us.
Clink: Wait Goose? I was hoping Vik because he’s a messy player and sounded pissed earlier at you and Sophie for lying to him.
Jonas: If we send home Vik, that Borges Bloody Goose trio has too much power next round because Vik is coming after Borges and they're all 3 still together.
Clink: Aaa omg ok I like Goose but I know Deaze is voting for Vik here so that’s a possible 3 in case.
Moss: Has anything changed with the vote?
Borges: I think they may be blindsiding Simon and I'm afraid of that.
Moss: So are all these people lying to me? I haven't heard Simon's name.
Bloody: I swear to god, I've been freaking out about a blindside. That would be really shitty if they are. Do they have the votes? Deaze / Jonas / Sophie / Moss / Jessica / Vik and Nerf??
Borges: I have no clue. Simon is freaking out due to the whispers and the way people talked with him.
Bloody: Is this whisper chat as spicy for you as it is for me? A lot of last minute freaking out and paranoia.
Jonas: Lots of paranoia, just making me more paranoid. It'd probably be more fun if I was immune like you but instead I’m just like guys please don’t [bleep] this up.
Bloody: Obviously I know the shit I have to go through if I'm not truthful with you, lesson learned! Honestly, I haven't heard your name once tonight so you are golden. But dang this tribe is MESSY.
Nerf: Vik, I got a crazy idea I wanna ask of you.
Vikram: Go on.
Nerf: Just in case he does have an idol, can you put a vote on Jonas to save you and I potentially? This needs to stay between us two only.
Vikram: Oh boy, it's a lot panicking. Can you vote him?
Nerf: If you don't wanna do it, don't.
$pecies: So, Deaze and Vikram, were you surprised to see your names come up? Are you nervous for this vote? If so, how do you ensure that it's not you?
↳ Vikram: I knew I was receiving votes. I was just hoping I won't receive the majority of them and I'm glad I didn't. Now, I'm just whispering to others not about voting someone but about not voting me. I just hope people again realise that I'm threatening and am someone who can be worked with.
↳ Deaze: I was not surprised since I had a weird feeling but no hard feelings to Vik. I am very nervous as I should be since I received the 2nd most votes just now. I've tried my best to reach out to everyone and I hope keeping me is in the best interest of their games.
↳ Vikram: Why am I feeling like this vote is Big Brother style all of a sudden? Deaze and I both are on the block!
$pecies: Apart from Zach himself, four other people did not vote against Zach but against Deaze or Vikram. Is it common knowledge who these people are? Is that going to affect the vote?
↳ Jessica: I think it’s pretty public but not quite sure how it will affect this vote if at all. It will be interesting for sure to see how it plays out.
↳ Nerf: I'll be clear in saying I wasn't fully in the know with some people. Some people die lie to me but I'm not mad at them at all. I did know Zach was going to be getting SOME votes but not the majority of the votes at all. I don't think it'll affect anything too much, at least on my part.
↳ Borges: I'm not 100% sure but I think I know who voted whom. However it was a really messy tribal and I think this one will be messier than that.
↳ Moss: I think it's always hard to know who the people are because votes are anonymous and you never really know and just kinda have to piece it together.
$pecies: As this is a double elimination, all of you must have come in with a plan. How do you decide whether to stick to the plan or to change it? Has anything happened at the last vote that changed your mind?
↳ Vikram: My plan was to survive Final 13 and hence I didn't come here with a plan for Final 12. So for me, a new plan needs to be hatched or conveyed to me.
↳ Deaze: I am going with the plan that I think is best for everyone else's game. The only thing is that both Vik and I were targets but I hope everyone votes on who would be best for their games in the long run.
↳ Goose: While there may have certainly been plans going into this second vote, with the way the constant whispering is going on, I'm sure someone's plans are going to be changed by the time we vote later. For the time being, I am keeping my ears open and preparing to ride this wave of chaos!
↳ Jessica: This tribal has been messy with a lot of liars and honestly has just left me with a new perspective. So I'm grateful for that at least.
↳ Nerf: I'm not a man with a plan and really with this double elimination chaos, it's about figuring out how to handle this situation with all the whispers and whatnot. Not a lot with the F13 tribal council has changed my mind, no. But I don't know exactly what my plan is tonight, kinda the usual for someone like me. But, I'm just hoping it goes down the way I think it'll go down this time.
↳ Jonas: As you can see with the whispering popping off, this tribe a damn mess. So of course everyone is worried at this vote, myself included.
↳ Clink: This is especially scary. I thought I had a idea of what I wanted to do but these constant whispers and seeing who’s talking to whom gets you paranoid. I’m just praying I’m not the victim of a blindside.
↳ Sophie: My plan is always to kind of wing it. I’m just going with the flow but also taking into account that I and others are hella emotionally driven, so yeehaw!
↳ Simon: We got a lot of whispers to decide what we want to do and during this time everything can change. So it's really hard to decide what we will do in this tribal.
↳ Bloody: I mean, there's no such thing as a plan in this game. I'm safe this round, thankfully, but I'll admit this last hour has been wild. I'm sure all of us are sick of whispering after tonight. All you can really do is trust what you've been told and do what you feel is best for yourself. I guess that's the only plan in this game I can rely on.
$pecies: Looks like everyone is finally ready to vote?
Clink, you're up first.
One by one, the players make their way to the voting booth to vote.
Clink (votes against ?)
You’re a good person, but gamewise, I want your head.
Simon (votes against ?)
I hope it's you and not me.
$pecies returns to the voting podium with the urn.
$pecies: If anyone has idol tokens and would like to play them, now would be the time to do so.
No one speaks up.
$pecies: Alright, once the votes are read, the decision is final, the person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately with Zach. I'll read the votes. First vote...
Nerf
Deaze
Deaze
Deaze
Deaze
That's four votes Deaze, one vote Nerf.

Jonas: All that whispering for an 11 - 1 , y’all are wild.
Deaze: Good game everyone!
Vikram: Good game Deaze!
Sophie: Deaze , loved talking music with you homie.
$pecies: That's 7 and that's enough. Deaze, I'll need you to bring me your torch.
Deaze brings his torch to $pecies.
$pecies: Deaze, the tribe has $poken. It's time for you and Zach to go.
Zach and Deaze leave tribal council to head to the jury villa together.
$pecies: An unanimous vote after all these whispers. This game is not gonna get any easier from here on out. Do take care of yourself and each other. While you may be voting in or with the majority this time, you may want to start pondering if or when you would be left behind before it's too late.
Grab your torches and head back to camp. Good night!

FINAL WORDS
Zach | 13th Place
Did I see this coming? Not really. But some of these people's words don't mean anything. As someone once said, anything that's too much for you is poisonous and some of these people have too much poison in the blood stream. I just happened to get affected by trusting them. I do not regret a single thing I did because I stuck by loyalty and in my mind that's what matters. I guess maybe I was ready to do moves some people weren't ready to make. But I guess I will see that when this whole $eason is over haha. Zach out. Peace ✌️
Zach bequeaths $1700 to Simon and $300 to Jessica.

3 votes against Deaze - Jessica, Nerf, Vikram
2 votes against Vikram - Deaze, Zach
FINAL WORDS
Deaze | 12th Place
There are some very savvy players on this cast. And like myself, there are a few that were going hard for the win. Many players that have been screwed, have settled their differences and began working together and many "enemies of enemies, have become allies" in this short amount of time we've merged. This phenomenon is still pretty fascinating to me. In the end, I swung for a home run and ended up striking out. 12th place does sting, but hey I gave it my all for the time I had and went up against some really solid players here. I'm truly excited to hear how the dynamics actually were on the tribe and am looking forward to being a very tough juror. I will definitely be grilling these finalists as I know for a fact, there are going to be some players that had the opportunity to make a move but didn't. This ends my time in $audi Arabia and though I wish I had stayed longer to execute my plans I had laid down the pipeline, I wouldn't have changed a single thing. Thanks again to $pecies and all the amazing staff who worked hard to put such a complex and fun game together, I enjoyed every minute of it. Deazenutz out.
Deaze bequeaths Borges and Goose $1000 each.
