[Brett Clouser]

Entry 7 getting too damn long. Let's start fresh.

By getting your PS2 set up... does that mean you got Persona 3? Ugh, I've been missing playing that... DAMN YOU JAMES JOYCE


Do you think you could make endgame with Steph and Fabio? What about Sierra?

Unfortunately no P3 for me yet. I was just thinking of playing some old games a bit.

As for the bigger issue here, I would love to take Fab and Steph and Rob all to the end. That's been my goal for quite a while. Final Four. Once we've got there... I would very much like to make finals and I think I have a decent chance against any of the 3 but I could be dead wrong and that isn't the main goal for me. Would I love to win? Fuck yes... but I'll be happy to simply accomplish what i've set out to accomplish.

Now, can I do it?

I think its going to take a lot of effort to get them there with me. I've never won a game before and I've only managed to get my allies to the finals after I was gone twice. So I'm not exactly confident I can do it, but I really want to. Sometimes I admit I do feel like im doing all the legwork, and im scared that Fab and especially Steph are suspicious of me. I think it isn't the most solid alliance but I really hope that I have their trust.

As for Sierra..... I don't know what'll happen with her. Im not gunning for her but I don't know how far I could take her before its just plain cruel to string her along with the plan of dropping her at the f5. She's a wildcard and unpredictable and I don't trust her at all with any form of information so if her time comes, ill have to vote her out. Still I don't want to actively persue eliminating her and id rather be with her than against her.

[Amanda Kimmel]

If you get a F4 with Fabio, Rob, and Steph... would any of them take you to the F2?

[Brett Clouser]

I think Rob would take me. Im less and less certain about Fabio or Steph. I think they would take each other. Honestly when we get to that point I don't see me leaving anything to chance. Im a huge challenge whore when I have to be, and if I have to haul ass in the last few challenges to secure a place in the finals, that's absolutely what ill try to do.

Of course I haven't gotten that far yet. We haven't even merged, so that's my first goal: surviving and making sure the people i'm closest to do as well.

I just got an IM from someone irrelevant!

And nothing! I get the feeling Darrah is just bored.

[Brett Clouser]

Sierra, slowly rising, up the bootlist.

Higher.


HIGHER.



HIGHER.


As much as I thought I could work with her, I don't think thats an option, really. I mean, I like her, but she's so easily swayed, left and right and... Jesus Christ. I wish Fab and Steph would just vote her out when if they lose. Because honestly, Sierra is SO FUCKING GULLIBLE and NEUROTIC. And you would think that's a useful thing, and if I was a bad person it would be... but I can't bring myself to lie the way I would need to to get her doing my bidding. She needs to be shoved instead of pushed, and convinced that you are the only one looking out for her... and if you're doing that, then you really aren't the only one looking out for her at all.

She says she might vote Steph with JT to save herself. She says a lot of stuff and most of it is just plain BIZARRE. I don't know how she thinks so many crazed up things. I'm half tempted to throw our challenge and just take out Jimmy to keep my friends safe to Merge. I really hope Sierra goes if someone not named JT does.

I don't even know how to sum up the conversation I just had with Sierra. Basically she thinks me, Fab, Steph, Rob and Monica all have one big alliance and Rob was using her and etc... And I guess that's mostly true. She also seems to think that I am the leader of this mega-alliance and calling all the shots in this game.

And thats... I suppose entirely possible, honestly. I certainly don't see myself as being any kind of leader. I don't think people listen when I talk... but damn... if I look at it like that it fits. Steph and Fabio both ask me how high when I say jump. Sometimes they ask me to clarify why but... goddamn. They haven't put up any kind of a fight or a counter proposal and... I suppose its possible that I'm calling the shots here. It certainly doesn't FEEL like that, but... whatever. That is what that is and that's not the point here.

The point is Sierra is batshit insane. I don't get how anyone can be as crazy as Sierra and that's why she needs to go. I don't want to orchestrate her demise or anything, but if I have to... so be it. It's nothing personal, it's a matter of her being too damned risky to leave alone.

She's a ticking time-bomb of insanity.

Her logic and her perception is so warped that I'm having trouble understanding what she even thinks or is planning. And just... urg this is a pain in the ass to deal with. I honestly think she could end me if she stays, and she's way more dangerous to me and my objective of a F4 with Steph Fab and Rob than Monica at this point. Monica... I don't know how she's playing but my initial fears of her may not be entirely accurate. She might really be loyal to Fabio and she would keep him here as long as possible, and if she cares about him, I don't think she would go after the people who are taking him places and feeding him information that he feeds to her.

Monica's predictable. She's a threat but she's not crazy. Sierra is.

Sierra 1:29 pm
(1:29:27 PM): well like she said you have this whole alliance and all
(1:29:31 PM): which i mean is kinda obvious
(1:29:39 PM): not a huge revelation on her part :-P
brettclous 1:29 pm
(1:29:44 PM): huh?
Sierra 1:29 pm
(1:29:58 PM): just that u and rob and steph adn fab and monica are very close
(1:30:00 PM): but like...
(1:30:02 PM): ya, obviously
(1:30:03 PM): lol
brettclous 1:30 pm
(1:30:17 PM): lol there's no big huge alliance
(1:30:43 PM): I like working with Steph and Fab, and I know Rob from SBB
(1:30:54 PM): I don't really know Monica very well
(1:31:12 PM): I actually always thought you two were the big power alliance in this game
Sierra 1:32 pm
(1:32:03 PM): lol nah
(1:32:07 PM): monica doesn't tell me anything
Sierra 1:32 pm
(1:32:17 PM): i told her basically everything i knew awhile back
(1:32:25 PM): but i stopped since then cause she stopped telling me stuff :-P
(1:32:41 PM): nah i just like agreed with darrah abt everything
(1:32:45 PM): told her i'd vote steph or fab
(1:32:50 PM): she said JT was wit hher
(1:32:57 PM): they go to college together so
(1:33:01 PM): you neverk now, could've been true
brettclous 1:33 pm
(1:33:08 PM): yeah
Sierra 1:33 pm
(1:33:11 PM): anyway
(1:33:17 PM): she told me JT has the nullifier
(1:33:22 PM): and when austin gets kidnapped
(1:33:30 PM): JT is gonna have to either vote fabio with me
(1:33:35 PM): or get them all to vote me with her
(1:33:48 PM): but the thing is, either way, i'd be screwed
(1:33:52 PM): cause steph has a vote changer
(1:33:54 PM): so, yeah
(1:33:59 PM): lol, i'm not voting steph or fab
(1:34:08 PM): i'd rather just exit this overly draamtic game :-P
brettclous 1:34 pm
(1:34:23 PM): But that plan doesn't work if Steph and Fab don't vote you
(1:34:32 PM): And I think they won't
Sierra 1:34 pm
(1:34:38 PM): ah
(1:34:42 PM): they're not dumb neough to risk themselves
(1:34:46 PM): i mean, they vote JT
(1:34:53 PM): and one of them will have to go to a tie breaker against him
(1:34:57 PM): or they could just vote me
(1:35:01 PM): and then they'd be safe for sure :-P
(1:35:16 PM): but honestly, i dont care
brettclous 1:35 pm
(1:35:22 PM): I think they would go for the TB if they had to, honestly
Sierra 1:35 pm
(1:35:24 PM): i'm voting the way i said i'd vote, for better or worse
brettclous 1:35 pm
(1:35:58 PM): I don't know them too well, but I went though the Tonga boards cuz they were both in that
Sierra 1:36 pm
(1:36:12 PM): i wonder who else was there
(1:36:16 PM): maybe monica
brettclous 1:36 pm
(1:36:17 PM): the two of them are very tight
(1:36:20 PM): She is
Sierra 1:36 pm
(1:36:24 PM): ya, thought so
brettclous 1:36 pm
(1:36:26 PM): She was Parvati
(1:36:47 PM): She and Chris (Fab) had a F2 in that
Sierra 1:36 pm
(1:36:47 PM): i mean, to be perfectly hones,t and i told rob this too
(1:36:49 PM): if i oculd go back
(1:36:53 PM): i'd have voted fabio last round
(1:36:59 PM): but now that i've made my choice
(1:37:02 PM): i'm gonna stick with it
(1:37:17 PM): i just wish i hadn't have gotten myself into this crappy ass position
(1:37:23 PM): and talking to rob the whole game was a huge mistake
(1:37:28 PM): since he was talking to you abt me the whole time
(1:37:36 PM): motherfucker made me sit through listening to him talk abt killing himself
brettclous 1:37 pm
(1:37:36 PM): He wasn't, actually
Sierra 1:37 pm
(1:37:41 PM): on three seperate occasions
(1:37:46 PM): telling me i'm his number 1
(1:37:51 PM): he likes me more than anyone else in any game
(1:37:59 PM): he connects with me on such a deep emotional level
(1:38:08 PM): i talked him down from "killing himself"
(1:38:12 PM): tho now i know that was a lie
brettclous 1:38 pm
(1:38:20 PM): I don't think it was
Sierra 1:38 pm
(1:38:26 PM): and then like almost everyday he tells me he's gonna quit
(1:38:31 PM): and me and amanda have to talk to him
(1:38:33 PM): everynight abt it
brettclous 1:38 pm
(1:38:43 PM): Rob genuinely never told me shit about you. And he told you things he never told me
Sierra 1:38 pm
(1:38:48 PM): and then he goes and admits to me that the entire time he was working with you over me :-P
brettclous 1:39 pm
(1:39:24 PM): He may have been working with me for a while, but he was telling you more than he was telling me
Sierra 1:39 pm
(1:39:24 PM): ah...
(1:39:36 PM): he doesn't tell me anything
(1:39:42 PM): hes been acting like he's o nthe outs
(1:39:42 PM): the entire time
brettclous 1:39 pm
(1:39:49 PM): like ow the HII Darrah pulled was his, and that whole thing
(1:40:04 PM): I found out about that through the rumor mill
(1:40:12 PM): because he never even told me
brettclous 1:40 pm
(1:40:53 PM): And the only thing he ever told me about you was how much he liked you
Sierra 1:41 pm
(1:41:05 PM): he told me he told you abt that tho
(1:41:15 PM): like why would he lie abt that?
brettclous 1:41 pm
(1:41:18 PM): I had to ask
Sierra 1:41 pm
(1:41:21 PM): i know he's like kinda half retarded at times
(1:41:22 PM): lol
brettclous 1:41 pm
(1:41:32 PM): and lol yes he is sometimes
Sierra 1:41 pm
(1:41:43 PM): i dont know... dont worry tho i'm not a threat to you
(1:41:49 PM): it was rob that made me care to begin with
(1:41:54 PM): before that i was jsuth ere to fill a spot
(1:41:55 PM): lol
brettclous 1:42 pm
(1:42:03 PM): lol that happens
Sierra 1:42 pm
(1:42:28 PM): ya...
(1:42:35 PM): so, dont worry
(1:42:44 PM): i mean i understand i am lowest on the totem pole
Sierra 1:42 pm
(1:42:54 PM): after probly jimmy and austin and JT
(1:42:58 PM): but like i told rob, i'm fine with that
(1:43:09 PM): i made my choice, all be it the wrong choice, i'm gonna stick to it :-P
brettclous 1:43 pm
(1:43:29 PM): I wouldn't say you're at the bottom of the totem at all
(1:43:47 PM): but I know what it's like to feel on the outs
(1:44:01 PM): you don't buy it even if people tell you you aren't
(1:44:05 PM): :-\
Sierra 1:44 pm
(1:44:46 PM): ya...
(1:44:51 PM): well it's just the revelations
Sierra 1:44 pm
(1:44:55 PM): like why would rob keep telling me
(1:45:00 PM): he needs to find a way to save himself
(1:45:06 PM): and like...
brettclous 1:45 pm
(1:45:09 PM): he tells me the same thing
Sierra 1:45 pm
(1:45:12 PM): and then suddenly admit finally abt everything
(1:45:18 PM): well what's his deal
brettclous 1:45 pm
(1:45:24 PM): he's very paranoid
(1:46:13 PM): in SBB he was the constant target, mainly because he pissed people off so much
(1:46:16 PM): and flipped
Sierra 1:46 pm
(1:46:24 PM): lol
brettclous 1:46 pm
(1:46:27 PM): well, didnt flip
(1:46:42 PM): but he started an alliance up, as a mole during a tribe swap
brettclous 1:47 pm
(1:47:11 PM): and the people he backstabbed controlled every single HoH
(1:47:37 PM): he utterly screwed himself by going against them
(1:47:39 PM): TWICE
(1:48:04 PM): but he did it because he was loyal to his friends
(1:48:17 PM): and not because it was smart
(1:48:26 PM): because it totally wasn't at all
(1:49:10 PM): and after he pissed off so many people in that game, he's been trying to be as unfallingly honest as possible
Sierra 1:49 pm
(1:49:32 PM): i see
(1:49:37 PM): well...
(1:49:41 PM): lol i dotn know what to say
(1:49:46 PM): he's just a bizarre person
brettclous 1:49 pm
(1:49:50 PM): yes, he is
Sierra 1:49 pm
(1:49:58 PM): it's really getting difficult to tal kto him tho
(1:50:10 PM): cause he just constantly is like depressed, and telling me how worthless he is
(1:50:19 PM): and like i've been listening for a loooooong time
brettclous 1:50 pm
(1:50:25 PM): yeah I know what you mean :-\
Sierra 1:50 pm
(1:50:28 PM): but i dont feel like i'm getting anywhere
(1:50:33 PM): i mean...
(1:50:51 PM): he even keeps telling me things like he'll tal kto you and try to get me kidnapped... which i need to say it doesn't matter that much to me
(1:50:56 PM): but he brings it up
(1:50:58 PM): and says he will
(1:51:01 PM): and then doesn't :-P
(1:51:04 PM): same with monica
(1:51:12 PM): lol that pisses me off, dont say you will just to say it :-P
brettclous 1:51 pm
(1:51:36 PM): actually he started the kidnapping thread for this round, and only suggested you
Sierra 1:51 pm
(1:51:50 PM): oh wow
(1:51:54 PM): he actualyl did this time :-P
brettclous 1:52 pm
(1:52:13 PM): He said he did last time, but he never posted about it at all
(1:52:32 PM): I think he probably forgot to post
Sierra 1:53 pm
(1:53:04 PM): lol
(1:53:06 PM): ya he did
(1:53:12 PM): and he told me that the host deleted it
(1:53:18 PM): then later just said he forgot to post it actually
(1:53:19 PM): lol
(1:53:21 PM): weirdo
brettclous 1:53 pm
(1:53:41 PM): lol I think Amanda bitched him out becuse she didnt delete it
Sierra 1:53 pm
(1:53:53 PM): yeah she did
(1:53:58 PM): it caused a whole thing
(1:54:05 PM): i felt really bad to amanda for buying it
(1:54:21 PM): and it barely mattered at all last round
(1:54:35 PM): like i i just suggested he say me because i always do :-P
(1:54:42 PM): but it was very safe for me last tribal
(1:54:46 PM): so i didn't care
(1:54:56 PM): i still don't care overly much all though this time it's a lot more dangerous :-P
brettclous 1:55 pm
(1:55:02 PM): yeah
Sierra 1:55 pm
(1:55:19 PM): i just figure
(1:55:22 PM): if i get too nervous
(1:55:28 PM): i'll force a tie between myself and steph or fabio
(1:55:35 PM): i told rob the same thing
Sierra 1:55 pm
(1:55:41 PM): so i do have a way to like... save myself
(1:56:08 PM): i mean tara did tell me that she was doing what i thought she was doing, so, i'll just talk to steph and fab and see if i feel like they're voting me
(1:56:15 PM): when the time comes of course :-P
brettclous 1:56 pm
(1:56:23 PM): ok
Sierra 1:56 pm
(1:56:36 PM): and then of course there's the issue of steph's vote changer
(1:56:42 PM): which she could use on my vote :-P
brettclous 1:56 pm
(1:56:49 PM): yeah, she could
Sierra 1:56 pm
(1:56:53 PM): so i'd kinda be screwed anyway but, wateva
brettclous 1:57 pm
(1:57:02 PM): I think she would save it though
Sierra 1:57 pm
(1:57:05 PM): this game is starting to get to me too much anyway
brettclous 1:57 pm
(1:57:11 PM): :-\
Sierra 1:57 pm
(1:57:15 PM): ya
(1:57:27 PM): when tara says sh will vote with me against steph
(1:57:33 PM): do you think she is being honest?
Sierra 1:57 pm
(1:57:44 PM): i kinda doubt it myself
brettclous 1:57 pm
(1:57:47 PM): I don't think so
Sierra 1:57 pm
(1:57:54 PM): ya
(1:58:00 PM): okie well, i'll do what y'all say
(1:58:20 PM): i so wish i hadn't used my changer to save fabio :-(
(1:58:44 PM): his importance compared to mine is just like sooooooo much greater, so i shoulda saved it for myself
(1:58:45 PM): lol
brettclous 1:58 pm
(1:58:50 PM): lol
Sierra 1:59 pm
(1:59:13 PM): okie well... rob told me he was gonna talk to you
(1:59:17 PM): and try to get me kidnapped
(1:59:34 PM): however i know that ur decision is already made so... lol
brettclous 1:59 pm
(1:59:42 PM): yeah, it is
Sierra 1:59 pm
(1:59:55 PM): and ur decision is the entire alliance's decision, really :-P
brettclous 2:00 pm
(2:00:13 PM): lol I don't think so
Sierra 2:00 pm
(2:00:23 PM): ah monica and john will agree with you
brettclous 2:00 pm
(2:00:37 PM): Yeah probably
Sierra 2:00 pm
(2:00:43 PM): :-(
brettclous 2:01 pm
(2:01:02 PM): :\
Sierra 2:01 pm
(2:01:46 PM): can i say rob to kidnap if my tribe somehow actualyl does win?
Sierra 2:02 pm
(2:02:05 PM): since he's the only one who's fighting for me i feel i have to suggest him
(2:02:20 PM): it would leave jimmy johnson there
(2:02:26 PM): which i assume would be the target
brettclous 2:02 pm
(2:02:39 PM): you can suggest him. I'd rather see like John get kidnapped since I trust Rob's vote more
(2:02:49 PM): but thats your tribes decision
(2:02:55 PM): not mine
Sierra 2:03 pm
(2:03:03 PM): lol well it's steph's and fab's decision
(2:03:08 PM): so it is kinda yours :-P
brettclous 2:03 pm
(2:03:20 PM): lol you think that?
Sierra 2:03 pm
(2:03:28 PM): i believe tara, to be honest
(2:03:29 PM): abt that
(2:03:44 PM): and they are very important, so it's gotta be for a reason
brettclous 2:04 pm
(2:04:07 PM): I like them both because they're both very onest players
Sierra 2:04 pm
(2:04:19 PM): i'm depending on it
(2:04:37 PM): tara is going to ask them to vote me
(2:04:42 PM): if they tell you they are voting me
(2:04:46 PM): would you let me know?
(2:04:51 PM): i mean i'll still vote JT
brettclous 2:05 pm
(2:05:04 PM): If they lie and vote you out, I'll go after them myself
Sierra 2:05 pm
(2:05:09 PM): in hopes that they are lying abt the vote nullifier and it's actualyl austin who has it
brettclous 2:05 pm
(2:05:34 PM): honestly if they're threatening you likethat, its probably Austin
Sierra 2:05 pm
(2:05:46 PM): hopefully
(2:05:50 PM): okay and i have to ask...
Sierra 2:06 pm
(2:06:18 PM): at merge, if there is a plan already in place... is it atleast jimmy and austin/jt before me?
(2:06:24 PM): if there's a plan in place
brettclous 2:06 pm
(2:06:45 PM): I don't think there's a plan, but you're way way below them on my bootlist
Sierra 2:06 pm
(2:06:58 PM): okay
(2:07:41 PM): i gotta go so...
(2:07:44 PM): good luck in the challenge
(2:07:49 PM): i'll ttyl
brettclous 2:08 pm
(2:08:16 PM): kk, ttyl
brettclous 2:08 pm
(2:08:20 PM): and thanks

[Toddy]

I completey agree with you about Sierra being batshit insane. The girls whacked.

[Amanda Kimmel]

And is that the reason you want her out? Her insanity, that is.

And is that the reason you want her out? Her insanity, that is.

I want her gone because she's starting to strong arm everyone in the game into doing what she wants, and it's tearing things apart. Fucking everyone was pushing for Sierra to be kidnapped, in spite of the fact that it was quite obviously putting Fabio and to a lesser extent Steph into harms way, most likely eliminating one of them. Sierra gets kidnapped, and they go.

So I told Fabio our numbers, as best as I knew or could estimate. I told him Boston Rob got 250, that I got 7, and that John had leftovers and Jimmy random picked and was probably going to be useless. When he told me that Sierra was pushing for Monica's kidnapping on their end, I told him to go with it with a small sigh of relief.

Why? Monica wants that HII and I think we both assume this is her last chance to get it. I had a talk with Fabio the other night about the HII and the way I believe it to work, and the people who could have found it possibly. I have no doubt my theories made their way back to Monica, and Monica wants a 3rd shot at the Aarde HII. Now, Monica with a HII... not the best, but for now, if she's gunning to get kidnapped, she's probably NOT gunning to win our tribe immunity. So if she's the one getting kidnapped, she'll throw the challenge without any input from me.

This is why Monica is less of a threat at this point. I don't know or understand her too well, but I do know enough to predict some of what she may be up to. Sierra is insane. She comes up with these ideas that maybe arent lies and maybe aren't wrong, but they're so blown out of proportion and warped that I can't keep track of it all. And if I want my alliance to the final 4, I need to understand it.

Anyway, Aarde won the challenge and we're going to tribal.

Can I just say how relieved I am? Sure, going to TC, not the best, but with half of my alliance on the other tribe, very likely to go home without an intervention from God himself, I am OK with taking my chances and playing the odds.

If Fabio had gone this round, I really do think I would have flipped out. Out of him and Steph I think I have the better line of communication, and I think I would take him to the F3 over her. Not only that, but just the shear feeling watching everything conspiring against my plans was tough. Sierra, John, Jimmy... all 3 especially would have ended up on my shit list and I would have completely changed the way I've been playing to enact some kind of roaring rampage of revenge.

But anyway, as fun as that could have potentially been, I'm making the best of the decision at tribal.

The plan between me and Rob this week is to take out John. Jimmy is disliked, and a shit stirrer and not much of a player, which is why keeping him works. He'll do something, and go for someone, and he'll make himself a target soon enough. And if he's a target in the merge, then that's one easy boot in the upcoming weeks.

John will not make himself the target. He's a nice guy. A modest and decent guy. He's not about drama, and he could fly all the way to the finale under the radar, and when he makes it there, he could win the whole damn thing.


So basically, he's a good person and must therefore die.

It's a strategic move, and it's mostly from Boston Rob's bag of ideas. In addition to that, not voting out Jimmy after he's heard a lot of shit about being targeted makes him closer to me and a possible vote to use in the future. He just called this an alliance that we have, and while I don't think of him as an ally, I am will to take him further if he is willing to work with me. Going into the merge should it come soon (it had BETTER.)... me, him, Steph, Rob and Fabio... that's 5/8 votes. We would hold majority. Jimmy is not a challenge threat, and if the alliance is tight enough he will not be any other kind of threat to us come the late game anyway.

Have you talked to Jimmy about the vote at all?

[Brett Clouser]

Yeah I have, also John, unfortunately. Jimmy seemed up for voting out John. John seemed up for voting out Jimmy. I feel lousy voting out either but I don't have a formal alliance with either and as much as I like John, he's a more strategic target. Jimmy is hopefully actually on board and there is no plan between the two that I have to worry about, like vote changers or forced ties... :/

I may go over the dares again and be sure of my vote...

[Brett Clouser]

Jimmy likely has a vote changer. That means I really hope he's voting with us. I might have to use my changer on him to ensure he votes with us instead of with John. That could be really really bad if they voted together..... :/

[Brett Clouser]

Urggg... fucking Sierra. She needs to go. Bootlist, topped. Apparently she's decided to tell Jimmy that I said all this stuff to her about targeting him. The kicker is I don't even know if I did tell her that, because jimmy has always been the assumed target. And now... I have no clue what's going to happen, but guess which "motherfucker" she's targeting as soon as she gets the chance!

Fucking. Yay.

Well gee whiz, Sierra, looks like I have a new target at the merge!

...if I make it that far

[Brett Clouser]

good luck over there. i've heard things got kinda complicated

Yes thank you sierra please burn in hell.
