Earl the Pearl's thoughts

and only complains about Peter and Melinda coming back

I certainly know how that feels.

[Earl Cole]

We keep winning challenges can't complain with that. Only been to 1 tc in the game so far not bad, funny that neither Sash, Amber, or Spencer have even experienced tc yet, lucky fools. Danielle said that Amber offered her an alliance and was upset that Courtney got the grotto trip. When I heard that I made sure to go right to Amber and say how frustrated I was Courtney got the grotto trip after she held us up most the challenge and has been already unlike Danielle, Amber, or myself. I didn't really care Courtney went but my objective here just trying to throw Courtney under the bus since with Danielle being aligned with Amber now, I have to make sure Courtney would be the first target instead of me if we ever had a future tc.

I think what I'm going to do is make Sash my secret allie and spy in the game. We've talked a few times and what we're going to do is say we never speak to each other and have no connection with one another. He's got certain people he's with and I've got the same and what we can do is compare notes on things. The only downside is he's not around all that often but long as he can gather me some info that's all I'm asking. So far I know he wants Courtney out first if we lose, I haven't even told Danielle that and might not have to the way Amber is all upset at Courtney so things may not like as bad as they appear. I still want out of this tribe whenever possible and thought about taking the boat from the island and rowing straight back to Tiberius

[Natalie White]

lol I took the boats as soon as the challenge was finished. Sorry, but for now you need to remain at the Suetonius camp.

[Earl Cole]

Can I swim instead

[Natalie White]

lol, nope! You have to stay.

[Earl Cole]

that's okay I don't feel like going there anymore lol

[Tom Westman]

So who would be your number 1 ally? Danielle, Sash? Or someone else?

Also do you have a long term plan yet?

[Earl Cole]

I have somewhat a long term plan. I was planning to stick with the old Timberius members if we all make merge and then pencil in some side alliances with Brenda and along with Sash.

Number 1 ally right now is up for debate between both Sash and Danielle. I think Danielle is the best choice for that as she's more into the game and can get me more info, while Sash isn't around as much and he's more likely going to stay loyal to his old Livy members.

[Earl Cole]

We lost immunity and my crappy score on the flash game didn't help matters. I actually blame Courtney the most because she got zero and then has immunity for tc, Just disgraceful she would not give a rats ass, throw the challenge and then have immunity, quite lame if you ask me. I also hate flash games with a passion but I will not cry a rant like Melinda, just hopefully won't see another for a long time lol.


This tc is a huge mess and I'm trying to sort it all out. Spencer, Danielle, and Amber all appear to be voting for Sash. When I first heard that was glad I wasn't the original target with Courtney being immune but then thought I better come up with some counter plan because I rather not have Sash go and then possibly be on the chopping block next time. Then Sash found out he was being targeted, have no idea why Danielle insists of telling each person they are being voted out when we have tc but she does and that only causes chaos and trouble. Sash then gets all pissed off at her and started attacking her and threatening her saying he had an idol. I told Danielle to calm down, he can't possibly have an idol as he's never been to the grotto before and Courtney would be much too greedy to give him an idol if she had one. Danielle wanted to quit and I did my best to stop her and then things got a little better but she sure needs to be careful how she handles these things before she has a nervous breakdown.

DaniPanamania [10:43 P.M.]: Natalie 12:36 am
you aren't thinking of quitting are you?
Danielle DiLorenzo 12:36 am
idk :-\
Natalie 12:36 am
=-O
you better not!
Danielle DiLorenzo 12:36 am
why?
Natalie 12:37 am
because, you just need to see what you can do. Don't give up


I didn't realize as host you were also the motivational counselor

Then Courtney comes on and I finally chat it up with her. Sash sent her some chat Danielle and Him had where Danielle said Courtney would have left and they both sent me their versions as well so I know what it said lol. It was weird Sash and Danielle both were sending me the exact pieces of their chat at the same time and being caught in the middle has its advantages.

Danielle DiLorenzo 10:10 pm
yeah, I really wanted to vote for Courtney, and i wanted to be honest and not lie to you on that :-\
Danielle DiLorenzo 10:11 pm
i dont like that she threw this one bit
Sash 10:12 pm
fair enough, good-bye


Now Danielle has dug herself a hole with both Sash and Courtney and I must find a way to fix this. So what I did was offer Courtney a deal that I'd be loyal to her and we could make some long term arrangement. I said we should save Sash as he'll be in debt to us in the future and since she doesn't have all that many friends or allies in the game it's a good deal for her, it's a good deal for Sash since that keeps him in the game, not a bad deal for me either where I'd have everyone on my side in the tribe besides Amber and Spencer and if we voted one of them out bingo I'm sitting pretty. Courtney told me she had some reward from the blue grotto and that is def helpful since she can change a vote or something along those lines. I don't want her voting Danielle out but she doesn't have the votes for that, what I will do is push hard for an Amber boot when we talk later today and hopefully not put a target on my back in the process. Annoys me in a way that I need Courtney's help on this vote and she's never around and of course immune.

Danielle is still worried she's getting votes. I then told her I'd talk to Sash about voting Amber out instead and Danielle said that was fine. The thing is when I found out Sash was the target I sent him a pm and suggested Him/Me/Courtney force a tie and get him to a tb challenge. So in a way I was just glad to come up with a reason to bring Amber's name up. I need to be careful and not screw things up tomorrow since if Courtney talks to Spencer that could spell trouble and I might have the vote reversed on me and I made a huge hassle for nothing. I don't want Sash or Danielle leaving, Courtney is immune and I have a deal in place with her now so my voting options are Amber or Spencer. Amber should go she's pretty weak in the challenges and doesn't ever talk with me and is useless to my game.

I really just need to find a way to make merge as I will have others to help out my game like Katie, Gabe, and Brendra.

[Earl Cole]

Alright so the plan now has moved to voting Spencer and I've got Courtney, Sash, and Myself on board with it and then Courtney is using some item from the grotto to cancel Danielle's vote. This will be huge if it all works out and if not, at least I tried to make something happen. The only way I see this not working is if Spencer plays an idol or one of the three of us slips up and tells him but come on we won't pull a Danielle and do that. This should make me a villain now exactly where I want to be.

[Tom Westman]

So has there been much of a fall out from the vote?

What do you think of your new tribe?

[Earl Cole]

So has there been much of a fall out from the vote?

There has been a little mainly with Danielle not knowing I was going to do that. Don't really care since she isn't on my tribe anymore and if she doesn't feel like trusting me I can always take her out easily later.

What do you think of your new tribe?

Hate the new tribe. Then again I hate about every single person in this game right now lol. Shannon is inactive, Sash was a complete idiot telling everyone to vote him off and then 10 minuts before deadline trying to stay, Boo is annoying, Courtney is crazy, and Amber hates my guts. About the only good thing is I have a good bond with Brenda or I'd be going out of my mind here. I'm just waiting for the merge to happen at this point and then things should get exciting.

[Earl Cole]

My tribe sucks hard. I'm like the superstar here surrounded by rookies when it comes to these challenges. I demand a trade! They couldn't be productive if their lives depended on it. I cannot believe Boo and Courtney made simple mistakes like they did. Seriously you post once you're attempting and then next breaking. How hard is that? I hate playing these games with idiots because they are going to cost me any chance to get far.

This vote doesn't appear to be any headache. Shannon is inactive, hasn't been around since Monday and it's the most logical boot you can have. Unless someone decides to make a play and use some grotto item he will be going, I still think by rules 2 straight self votes removes him from the game so this shouldn't be any issue unless someone feels like wasting their item. I'm hoping we merge next that way I can get out of a tribe full of idiots and start getting to the fun part of the game.

[Earl Cole]

We lost immunity again what a surprise. Our tribe sucks and it's me that only seems to try on these things, this time I just said fuck it and didn't do much. It's frustrating in a way that every challenge is the same, long posting ones where we don't have a shot since Livy has all the people with no lives that post all day and all night long. Safe to say I got screwed with this tribe swap and got stuck with all the misfit losers.

This vote is simple for me I'm voting for Amber mainly because the whore thinks she can get me out. Not going to happen sister I have Courtney and Brenda on my side and that's majority last time I looked. I know Amber is all frustrated that I took out her beloved Spencer a couple rounds back and holds a grudge, it's about time to get over it but then again her stupid strategy of avoiding me hasn't worked and I cannot wait to say good riddance. How stupid can someone be trying to vote me out over an inactive last round, I saw right through that and knew Shannon would self vote twice and get himself removed.

Boo is doing a really bad job of manipulating and trying to call the shots. You tell me the vote is Courtney, you tell Courtney the vote is me like we're not going to compare notes? Another stupid strategy someone came up with and he's only fortunate I hate Amber's guts or he'd be on his way out instead. I made sure to fill Brenda in that Bo said she was a threat and she seemed mad. Exactly what I wanted to see happen that way if we lose again the vote with be easy and Boo will leave. I formed f3 with Brenda and Courtney for the end of the game, I like them both a lot and think we made a pretty decent trio. The problem for me is going to be in this merge later when I have them and the Tiberius group and I'll have to find some sort of middle ground between both groups otherwise I'll be playing both sides which I have never done in a game before.
