Confessional #1: Round 1 Part 1

The game sure has a lot of twists so far... definitely more than I was expecting. Although I don't really see any that are majorly going to affect the game yet. Yeah, the golden bonds are kind of important... but it's not really worth it to try and stir stuff up on the other tribe just to get the one person you have safe. In my opinion, if Kass is going to survive until the merge, she's doing it on her own... and she's the one working for me, not me working for her. She has to get the merge to earn me the hidden immunity idol, or else relationship's over haha. I wonder if other people are going to go crazy about the golden bonds though.

As for the first vote... turned out to be pretty pointless. We voted out an inactive, they voted out an inactive... we pretty much just traded inactives. So nobody really gains anything, and nobody really loses anything. Unless one of those two randomly shows up, then we shall see which tribe lucked out.

It will be interesting though, because whoever has Julie as their golden bond is actually on a tribe with her now. I'm looking forward to the strategy talks with whoever it is, me being like "It's obvious we need to get Julie out because she's not even here" and the person with her as a golden bond being like "Oh no, we need to keep her for some bullshit reason that I can't think of blah blah blah". Yeah, I really hope that happens because it'll be pretty hilarious.

As for alliance talk... I guess I don't really have any yet. I've had one on one conversations with everyone on my tribe except Cliff, and so far I like Yul, and Spencer the best. Ethan is cool, but a little strange. And Bob Dawg, yeah we didn't start off so well haha. Not super bad, but I don't know our conversation was really short.

For the girls tribe, I've talked to Kass and Marissa, and like them both. I told Kass I had her as my golden bond and tried to get her to tell me who she has, but she told me she's keeping that information to herself for now... makes me think she doesn't trust me, but oh well, it's like the first day. I don't expect people to trust me this soon. Marissa is probably one of my favorites in the game. We haven't made an alliance or anything, but she's just fun to talk to. I might suggest a power duo team up to her or something like that. I like the idea of having a cross tribal alliance.

Confessional #2: Round 1 Part 2
Well that challenge set the record straight and has given me the realization of a harsh reality that it is going to be a lot harder for me to complete live challenges this season than it was the last time I played... Let's face it, I was completely useless in this last challenge... but whatever, I don't know if anybody's mad or not.

Nothing's really changed much so far... I'm trying to play a lot more low key, but still make alliances to get me through obviously. So far it seems like Spencer, Bobby and I are going to work together. At least we plan to rotate the Luv Shack between the 3 of us as much as possible. In my eyes it sounds like an alliance, in their eyes it could just be an excuse to get more votes for the Luv Shack, I don't know what they're thinking. I've done no strategy talk with anyone, and I don't even know who I would want out if our tribe were to go to tribal. Nobody has a really big personality, and no one seems super important on this tribe.

Hoping the excitement kicks up. I'm sure once we actually have to go to tribal it will be crazy... and who knows if I'll manage to survive lol

Confessional #3: Round 2 Part 1

So somehow we didn't win the album cover challenge... yeah, I call bullsh*t but whatever. What's done is done man. Time to get to the vote and my guess is I'm going home.

I don't know what it is, but I don't really like the cast this time around... everyone on my tribe is pretty boring tbh. Nobody I really actually want to work with, and nobody I really care to save. I mean, I know I sucked in the first challenge and didn't do that great in the second, so I can only imagine my name is being thrown around.

If I go home then whatever. I'm not even going to try and save myself. We shall see how it goes. I'm not quitting, I'm just not fighting.

[Jean Robert]

This right here is where the game is going to get interesting. This tribe swap was supposed to be my safety net. I'm pretty sure all the guys in this game are in a huge alliance except for myself, and I wouldn't be surprised to find out that they all knew each other before the game... so when I found out the guys planned to throw the challenge to all end up on the same time, I knew I had to do really good. Only problem? I didn't find out about them throwing the challenge until after the deadline. And guess what? There's only 2 girls on my new tribe. Sounds bad right? Well it might not be.

All the guys are talking about just getting rid of the girls one by one, and we will end up in the final 7. Yeah, that would be a great plan... if I'm playing for 7th place. And plus, I'm not a fan of boring Pagonings, and even though I'm kind of half assing this game, I might as well try to stir the pot right?

I've been talking with Kass a lot, and I think for the most part she trusts me. Well I found out that she has the power to switch somebody's vote... like some mind control or something like that. Well fancy me this? She hands me over the power to switch someone's vote. She convinces Taj and Gillian to vote for Yul (because I am not bringing this up to Taj and Gillian... my neck cannot be on the line), and I use the switch vote on Ethan, and force him to vote for Yul.... that's 4 votes for Yul, and 3 votes for one of the girl, and bam! Power switch... and nobody will suspect me of being the one who flipped, because I have never been to the Luv Shack. So all eyes will points to Ethan.

The only thing I can see going wrong is Taj or Gillian being a loud mouth and getting me in crap with the guys by tattling on me... which would not be a smart move on their part, but I could see it happening.

[Jean Robert]

So, how many of you prediction writers just lost one of your winner picks because of me?

[Jean Robert]

Oh... okay nope, I'm screwed lol

[Jean Robert]

Kass is pissed because I told her I only had 30 minutes left to complete the challenge and that there was no way I was going to win... so she decided to tell me she got 3 hours and 35 minutes. Then I find out I can go past 10pm as long as I started before, so I kept going and ended up beating her and Gillian. So she thinks I'm a scumbag because she's an idiot who told me her time without me asking for it? Okay, cool. See how many shits I give.

Let's be real here. I'm coming back into the game. Do I have any shot of winning? No. Hell, do I have any shot of getting past the next vote? No again. So we will just see. I'm probably just sticking with the guys as long as they want to keep me because there is no way to get the numbers over them. If I get 6th place it's better than 8th... or whatever, so yeah. Not really here to stir up drama, just glad I'm on the jury now. Awesome!

[Jean Robert]

Haha hilarious! Should I be upset that I'm considered a villain? Come on... if I wasn't here this game would be pretty boring. Had I not made the moves I made before my first elimination, there would pretty much be no big moves in this game. That was what I considered a big move, and had Ethan's twist not been in play this game would have been extremely different than what it is right now. But instead we are either going to see a boring pagoning of the girls, or a boring revolving door with me leaving.

Now if these people were smart, they'd say "Hmmm... Jean Robert. Zero shot at winning. Let's take him to the finals". And then if I'm sitting in the finals I think I could manage to make up a pretty good case for actually voting me for the win. I mean it's a long shot, but seriously... has a single person in this game made any moves other than me? If I'm sitting up with any of these guys I can just say "They got here by being in a majority alliance. The only reason I got voted out was because of Ethan's twist, and had that twist not been in play I would have made the biggest move of this game. But that's overlooked by the fact that it all got screwed up by Ethan's twist".

I'm not saying it will get me the win... because yes, I was voted off. But I can try and play up the fact that I was voted off "unfairly" and play up the fact that I made way more moves than anyone left in this game... and I wouldn't be lying.
