Bigger entry coming soon, but I just learned some aliases, not all of which are helpful and most of which are making me wish I didn't know them.
Anyway, Fabio remembered something I said about being the sole tiebreaker in a challenge, and it turns out he was a PW for Amazon Remade, Boston Rob. I actually already figured this out by figuring out who he was in Tonga and skimming his Confessional... but anyway, he thus figured out I was Christy in Remade. I sure am great at keeping my alias top secret aren't I? (: So anyway, I decided to just talk openly a bit with him about games and people and he spilled quite a few aliases.
Appearently, he thinks Darrah is Heidi from Amazon Remade, and JT and he are friends and JT is Jenna from that game. If that's true... oh joy. Real fun times there. Also if that's true Rob is even stupider to hand off that HII to Darrah. I don't get why she would waste a HII if she was aligned with them over at Aarde though. It doesn't make much sense... but apparently that's what Monica thinks! Speaking of whom....
Monica is Amanda's dear friend Parvati from Remade. I guess this explains why Fabio trusts her so much; they were in last season together and I guess Parvati was playing a hero last time. Parvati's is actually the one confessional that I read all the way through from Tonga just out of curiousity, and she was determined in that to play a Hero, based on the standards she has a hero made out to be in her mind.
According to Parvati, Heroes.....
...don't approach people for alliances.
...don't talk around to a lot of people.
As far as I can tell, Monica is breaking both of those standards she set for herself last season. She's not playing the kind of hero she claims a hero is. She's most likely not playing a Hero at all.
And I mean, that's ok. Heroes, Villians... I really don't tend to classify people like that. BUT, it doesn't matter how I work or percieve things. It matters how Monica does. She seems to classify a "heroic" game as one with a very rigid set of standards, and if she's not following that rigid set of standards I think it's very likely she's playing the way she's used to... and that's with the kind of moral code that is A-OK with backstabbing a best friend to win a game. Yeah I'm undecided here but definitely NOT feeling better about things right now.
I also told Fabio about my history with Boston Rob a bit and discovered the very best word to describe the guy ever: "wishy washy." I told Fab about how he backstabbed me and then after I realized all the bad things I'd said I added that I think the guy is genuinely repentant for all the people he pissed off and is over compensating for it. Fabio says he understands how that is after what happened in Remade Season 1, which he earned an AS spot in.
Heh. Can you believe anyone would do stuff like that?
...I think me and Fab are a damn good match-up.

5th Place Season 1
On the outs of his tribe he flipped on them causing them to be voted out one by one. He tried to manipulate everyone into doing what he wanted, by lying and making up convos, and it almost worked and got him far, but in the end it bit him in the ass earning him his villain status
