Day 11: Jake B. // Lemjam6
Michael is out and Jake in the final 7. I love the sound of that. I know I'm continuing to put a target on my back but I do not care. Nothing feels better than safety.
Now although plans didn't go exactly as planned last round, I think the strength of my gameplay is my ability to adjust. I'm flexible. I'm willing to work with people I don't like, I'm willing to work with people I don't trust, I don't care. An alliance is not a friendship, it's people with a common goal.
I talk to Jayson more than I talk with Daniel or Sagar, but in my mind Jayson has to go. If Jayson is gone, Brian is going to be 100% loyal to me and I start getting put into the best spot. Ideally, I'd like Sagar out but I know that Mike is in love with him for some reason.
My plan is for Me/Mike/Britt/Kaya + Mike's extra vote to take out Jayson and then next round Me/Britt/Kaya/Brian take out one of Mike/Sagar/Daniel, ideally Sagar. The problem is that Mike wants to include Sagar in the Jayson vote. I think it's a terrible idea, I don't want it getting out at all. People have big mouths and in this game an idol is luck of the draw. An idol could get played on Jayson which would derail our plans and out our idea to flip on the group. Mike wants to keep his extra vote, which I understand, but it's selfish and illogical. We could make this move right now and take out Jayson, but we need to keep it hush.
Mike is the person i've played this game most closely with, but it's still hard for me to trust him. Mike and I know each other well and at the end of the day, we are both here for ourselves. We love the idea of outplaying the other. But I don't want my internal competition with Mike to ruin my game. I'm willing to give into Mike at times or give into Kaya at times. I don't care. I make adjustments every round to get me in a spot that I feel secure in.
