Alina- I dont know much about Alina's game pre-tribe merge, but she's played emotionally, not strategically, and has never had a solid grasp on the game at any point that I know of. Her alliance with Lisi has been good for her longevity in this game, but to win, she may need her close ally on the jury. She's been somewhat of a polarizing player, as well. Several people have been irritated by her antics. That could also hurt her chances of winning this game

Yul- Yul has basically been in co-control of this game since very early on, until my boot. He's been a loyal player to those he's pledges his loyalties too. He's played a sneaky game, and I do take credit for taking him to that level of play, but he was willing to play that way to win this game. A solid, well rounded player.

Catalie- Another solid player who came into the merge as a major target. Idol fears helped her game early on, but she has the ability gain people's trust and a willingness to work with her. Her game is flawed though. By protecting Erinn, instead of staying with her alliance (myself/Yul), she tossed away a guaranteed spot in the F3 against 2 players who would have essentially betrayed or mislead a majority of the jury and simultaneously weakened her position in the game numbers wise.

Lisi- Ive played with Lisi since Day1, so Ive seen her game. She did little to connect with people on a social level from early on, and found herself constantly in the dark with major game developments until late into the game. She gets some mad props for being soooo good at finding the Hidden Immunity Idols (which unfortunately have been in an overabundance this season) and they're basically responsible for her being in the game today. Social/Strategic flaws, but great at challenges/idol clues.

If I had to guess tonights boot, I would assume it's going to be Catalie or Yul.

Who deserves to win the most? Probably Yul. He's been the most consistant player, and since I worked with him closely from very early on in the game, I know how well he has played, and gone outside of his comfort zone to mislead and make moves before they could be made against him.

Who deserves to win least? Based soley on gameplay? Alina or Lisi. But Alina has more friends and built more relationships with players on the jury

There is no way Yul is losing this endurance challenge. Not too shabby of an analysis by the way.

Was it just me, or has the board been down for a lot of the day?

It was, something was up server-side.

That could really screw with the challenge results.

I could see the target landing on Alina tonight. She is perceived as having both of Monya & Nay's votes on lock, as well as a better chance at Paloma's than anyone else. Not to mention a good stab at mine and Lisi's if she was to be the final Juror.

These are all votes that Yul/Cat/Lisi have to be considering they would be able to get far easier than if she stayed in.

um THIS was my arguement as to why you and Cat should have stuck with me and Yul

Yea, Alina has played the weakest game of the 4, but possibly stands the best shot winning if she is in the final 3

The problem with Lisi turning on Alina or vice versa is the "the fear of the unknown" They would basically be putting their fate (and all the power) in Yul and Catalie's hands. It would be a big move for either one to make, but a risky one.

If they stick together, they basically run no risk of being booted, and just need to decide who they'd rather sit next to, Yul or Catalie and get the other to swing their vote.

Brenda- had you just voted for Erinn, you and me would still be in this game instead of Alina/Lisi

Cat just won immunity. I sure hope Yul survives this vote

The only reason Brenda is not in the game is because an idol was played you dumb cunt. She would have been safe if Lisi had a life and didn't spend her entire day scouring the ends of the internet for obscure Thai words. Like legit 100% safe since I gave immunity to Cat and I wouldn't have flipped in the tiebreaker, meaning I would have been the only one vulnerable that TC.

But then again you also think that Alina played the worst game of the four when she actually like went around fooling people constantly whereas all Lisi did was find idols........ lol.

I said Alina "probably" played the worst game of the 4 left. Trust me, I dont think Lisi played much better, but she did perform better at challenges and BECAUSE of all of Lisi's idols, Alina has been able to ride that. If Lisi doesnt have any Idols, I dont go home @7, and Alina still has no type of power in the game. Lisi hasnt made any strategic moves that have worked. She just idol'd her way to the end game.

Well, thats the only reason Im not in the game as well. Shit happens. She wouldnt have been Idol'd out had I not been voted out because I gave Yul the clue for the idol and he gave it to HER.

It was impossible to beat Catalie by that point, so it didn't matter.

Probably true, but I feel like I would have just left tonight instead. It's pretty clear that Erinn/Cat/Me was my best chance at not only getting to the end, but winning too since right back when you guys booted Paloma. I didn't think it was actually doable until a few rounds later.

That move, of voting you and 'forcing' Cat to do the same would have been the big game-changer I could point to and say that was all me.

And yah, no fourth idol, and we go to rocks. I was well up for that had they been targeting Cat or Erinn. Don't think for a second I wasn't predicting that challenge from early in the day and then playing to ensure one of our three won. I truly believe without that idol in play, one of Lisi/Alina would have taken their chance at finagling something out of F5/F4 in order to avoid rocks.

Like I said when I arrived, no regrets, and play big or go home.
