Day 2: Sergio H. // sihz
So we lost the second challenge, bad week because we did try our best but unfortunately it wasn't enough.
Prior to the challenge smuguy and I had a talk where he hints that he hopes to work together with me which came as a surprise to me. At that point I felt mixed vibes from it so I told him we needed to talk after the challenge because it was about to happen, so we did after our loss. I was very straight up with him telling him that I sensed that he didn't like me for whatever reason and that I hadn't done anything to him personally in the past which is kinda true. My only reason to dislike him is that he was just always condescending to me but the point is we made peaces and we should be okay moving forwards, I pointed out that there were bigger fishes to fry for us to turn on each other this early on and draw attention upon us. Honesty is the best policy, and breaking the ice is my mechanism to have people let down their guards.
Eddy seems to be very active and talkative, I like him overall, he's very nice to me in pms. However, I can read through his words that he's a very smart kid and I won't be fooled by it. I will keep him around for now.
Zay, zay, zay, oh my sweet summer child zay. I want to trust him, I really do. But I got very vital information from outside that he's tight with Bamold/Britt/LittleMix or that he at least is familiar with that group which is a big no in my book. I didn't come here to play part of the Bamold's show. Nathan told me he wanted to make a chat with him and Austyn and I explained to him my reasons.
Brandon, we had a small chat yesterday! Not much of information was shared but he's cool, not very talkative though but he's not high on my totem pole.
Britt, I tried to catch up with her and see if we could get something going, she seemed uninterested maybe because she's in stars? She's also in the group mixed with Bamold so at one point I'll have to cut her.
Austyn, he's so cool. I knew that coming into the game he would be so chill and laidback and I have earned trust in him already. I hope it's mutual LOL I have watched him though, he makes it very far in games but doesn't win which could be a double edged weapon. He's the type of player that I don't see being a mastermind or anything but he's very likeable and very easy to work with which I think is why people don't take him so seriously enough to hand him a win. Love him
Nathan! we used to be close yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs ago, he went MIA for a while and we lost contact but now we're in the game it was nice to catch up with him. Him and I are scheming everything and sharing info back and forth and I knew that I could rely on him and Austyn since I have since them in games together before so I acted like I didn't know they were cool and I pushed a 3 way alliance out of it! I do trust these 2 the most because even though we all make individual connections with others, it's good to have a platform very early on where everyone's looking out for themselves.
And Johnny, I have not heard a word from. We're not even contacts LMAO same with Kellen but Kellen apparently sheeped Bamold in another group game according to the info I got today! and that's no bueno. I could plant the seed to get Kellen out first but that would just start a war so I'll go easy on this one
Now I'm gonna speak a little about the tribe dynamics because it seems like it's all over the place.
There's Me, Nathan and Austyn working together but I have good relationship with both separately but Nathan also wanted to add Zay into the mix because Nathan actually trusts him. I refused because although I like Zay, I don't trust that he will not leak that 4-person chat to the bigger platform he has in the background which is Bamold's group so it didn't make sense to me and I opened Nathan's eyes as he agreed with me.
Zay and Smu don't get along, I spoke with both privately and Smu is afraid Zay might come after him for that reason so I calmed him down and told him that would start a war and that also I'd be paying attention on Zay in case he brings up Smu's name. So Matt apparently is gonna talk to Zay to smooth things out, but I don't know about that. My whole purpose of keeping these 2 together is because they're a shield. They won't go after me before they go for each other and even if they smooth things out, they won't be bffs anyway so I'll keep smu close to me and I will keep Zoon close to me as well.
Zoon/Bamold/LittleMix/Britt seem to be familiar with each other so I also have to tear that apart before I'm torn apart.
I want the 3 people chat to stay together as a platform when the storm comes if a swap happens, I don't know how under the radar this bond will fly because we 3 do have similar takes on the game. And then we can branch out other side-alliances like Zay, Eddy, and Smu so that way we have voices everywhere that can feed us in the decision making process.
I have to admit that Nathan I can tell is my biggest threat already, he's super social, he's also a good schemer and his good looks dont hurt either! I have watched him play before from the outside and he's very likeable, and I need him but there's no way I'll take him to finals if we're ever in that position. And I also need to keep him close so I can see what he's capable of doing.
Overall, tribal council sucks but I'd like to think that everyone or majority is on the same page as far as voting Johnny out as he's the least talkative/active out of everyone. I am not locking my vote yet until tomorrow.
