The title of this confessional sums up the feeling I have right now, because I felt on the outs over on Suet, and I am pretty happy that I am on this tribe. I feel pretty bad for Amber cause she feels on the out on her original tribe, and I felt the same way too because I voted out Sash with her and Spencer but he managed to dodge a bullet, anywho I feel safe on Livy with Peter, Gabe, myself, Katie, and Dreamz being a majority. Chase and Benry seem to like me as well so that's always good.
Also found out Tara is Brenda, and I definitely need to watch out for her. While she has always been loyal to me and never backstabbing me, Tara is a manipulator, she knows how to work people, and that's the one thing I'm scared out about her.
I will write more later, I'm up doing this challenge, I need to sleep but gotta wait till someone shows up to hold off Suet.

Gabe tells me that he wasn't on good terms with Chase, not sure what that means, whether they aren't close or not, but if that's what everyone wants to do if we were to lose then I'm all for that. I like Benry and I feel he could help us a lot in the challenges, him and Chase are both pretty strong players so no matter who we lose I feel we'd still have a strong tribe, but I feel as much we could pull Peter in that alliance with me, Katie, and Gabe because Earl kinda lied to me this last round as far as the vote goes, and that in turn really makes me distrust him a slight bit, so I need to watch for their friendship as far as this game goes, but I can always make sure those two are split early merge.
Anyways, I'm gonna go do the challenge a bit more and then off to bed I go!

This was one insane challenge, and I feel we got it in the bag, 6 of us crossed to the seventh platform if we all posted correctly, all we need is Chase and it's official. It feels pretty good to be on the winning tribe, since I've been on them a lot in this game lol. I am running on 6 hours of sleep and it's insane, I do plan on getting my rest whenever the challenge results go up cause I'm pretty beat, I feel like the MVP on Livy because I've done a lot of blocking, and until 7 AM is pretty good. We did really amazing in this challenge and I'm proud of all of us, Suet looks to have a pretty easy vote out as far as things go because Shannon hasn't showed in like 2 days. My whole plan over here is to of course work closely with Gabe, Peter, and Katie, and try to get in a good position with Chase, Benry, and Dreamz as well to avoid a target on my back. I feel my biggest problem with my first two tribes I was on was coming off as too much of a threat to them, so I need to watch that, although I'm sure staying up till 7 AM to defend our tribe is already showing that off  but anywho... Feels good to not have to go to tribal if we win tonight. I just need to see what cracks I can find to work with and make larger on Livy, I think I can do it. Also, I plan on splitting Brenda, Earl, Sash, and Courtney up first chance I get at the merge if I make it. Sash is friends with Earl, Brenda is friends with Courtney and Earl, so do the math... that means those 4 are together, and I'm not gonna get fucked over by that. |

And oh yes... Earl is one of them, it's like that Lost Boys movie where the mom's boyfriend turned out to be the leader of that vampire cult after you thought he was a normal guy half the movie... Earl who I thought was my ally, is pretty much with Brenda, Courtney, and Sash now, it sucks and to think I wanted this guy in the final 4, and now he's pretty much in an opposing alliance, but that's okay. If I can get Peter in that foursome with me, Gabe, and Katie, and keep Dreamz around for a loyal vote on my side, then we have the numbers over their side. I don't think Brenda likes Benry either, so that could also help out if Benry has the same mutual feeling. I'll figure out more soon, I need to scope out these new tribemates and figure out where their heads are at in this game.

Yes! We won, it feels great to not have to go to TC, I'm getting tired of all that drama that comes along with it  Anyways, So Boo said he's attempting to talk to Amber, my guess is he wants to align with her which is good for the most part since without Spencer, she has nobody left on that tribe, and those two together would be good since he is a really loyal player... However, Boo wants to get rid of Sash this round. I think they could easily pull that off if Shannon would show, and they could somehow rope in Brenda, but I don't know how that's gonna turn out because as I said Brenda is friends with Earl, Earl is friends with Sash so I got no clue what could happen over there, this is going to either make or break Earl as far as his loyalty to Tiberius goes, he could either vote with Boo and get rid of Sash, or vote with Sash against Boo. In the meantime, I'm talking to the rest of these people to get them on my side so they won't vote for me, but no matter what, I got me, Gabe, Katie, Peter, and Dreamz over here so that's 5 people that wouldn't vote me out so I feel I'm pretty safe, and that's a first for me in this since that first shuffle. |

Time for a new tribe analysis (I won't do Gabe or Katie for this since I did them before.) Benry - Strong competitor, and has a personality that is a bit threatening as far as the game goes (Seems super likable and could possibly get anyone he wanted on his side.) Definitely not my first target but he'd be my 2nd if Livy was to lose two challenges. Also seems to be a tad bit allergic to AIM like some people I was with before *cough* Kelly *cough* Chase - Also a strong player, but not the best at conversation as far as that goes, and I can't stand when you try to play a good social game and yet half the people don't want to say more than one word in a conversation, it gets rather annoying, which is why he's my first target if we lose (Which is interchangeable with him and Benry.) Dreamz - Dreamz seems to rub a lot of people from the other tribes the wrong way (Like Courtney, Boo, etc.), but I do have his vote on my side or I feel I do since Dreamz loves me and he is also a good personality to talk to on AIM, funny when he starts venting about stuff. Peter - Last but not least. If you remember I said before that I know this guy, he was in another game with me, and this time around I want to work with him to redeem the way I played with him last time. Like Dreamz, he rubs some people wrong but is a good person to talk to and also another vote on my side. So it's good that I have Peter, Dreamz, Gabe, Katie's votes on my side (or at least I feel I do) cause it's good to at least get some control on a new tribe. This switch couldn't have made the tribes more perfect, Livy has the more active, people I can get along with players and that in turn increases my longevity on this tribe. Anyways, I'm beat so I'll try to update some more tomorrow |

So... tonight's challenge sounds to me like it will be endurance, if it is, looks like my horrible sleeping habits will pay off again like last challenge because I'm so used to trouble sleeping, that I managed to make it to 7 AM in that last challenge, although if it is endurance, I've never seen an ORG use that during the tribal stages before, so I've been thinking this is possibly the eChallenge, and maybe the "immunity" part of the treemail is just a throw off of that, if that's the case then I have to make sure I'm somewhere at least close to the top because I don't want to get eliminated from it, but if it is tribal, I'm gonna try as hard as I can to get a good score so that Livy wins this next immunity challenge, because I feel the jury will be starting this coming round, and if I can survive this next round then I'll be a juror if that is true. |

I tried to rest up as much as I could for the challenge if it is endurance because if it is an elimination challenge like I've been thinking it will be, I sure don't want to be last in the challenge because that would not be good if I was, maybe they will keep Shannon and he won't show like he's been doing for the last 3 days, because then I will at least have a chance even if I do end up getting distracted  which has been my downfall in most of the endurance challenges I have done in the past, I look away from the clock and it ends up being more time than I should, then look back and bam, I'm out of the endurance challenge  this time around, I'm gonna make sure that it isn't the case and I manage to last a good 10-12 hours in it, at least enough that I know I'm safe from elimination if that was the case, but there's 5 hours to go and this challenge could be just about anything. |

HUGE effort in the challenge Danielle! Well done for sure!
Are you worried about the potential side effects of doing so well in challenges?

HUGE effort in the challenge Danielle! Well done for sure! Are you worried about the potential side effects of doing so well in challenges? Thanks Tom! Yes, I'm always worried that that could make me a early merge threat if I do get that far, but at this point I feel the tribe sees me as a beneficial key in winning because of how hard I try on the challenges. |

but anywho... 
which has been my downfall in most of the endurance challenges I have done in the past, I look away from the clock and it ends up being more time than I should, then look back and bam, I'm out of the endurance challenge 
this time around, I'm gonna make sure that it isn't the case and I manage to last a good 10-12 hours in it, at least enough that I know I'm safe from elimination if that was the case, but there's 5 hours to go and this challenge could be just about anything.
