Confessional #2 & #3: Dark Clouds Ahead

[Brenda Lowe]

After 3 round, Savaii has remained strong and won Immunity each time we face off against the opposing tribes. Though after my efforts in the latest challenge, I worry my future in this game will end just the same as with all the previous seasons.

This is will an updated confessional of all the stuff that's been happening with me on the Savaii tribe.

After the tribes were all split up and the inactives were casted aside, I spoke with Wendy and knew if we were to survive in this game together, we would need an alliance for support. There was one player that immediately spoke with me about the subject. Tyrone recognized my aim from previous Nemle games. He asked if I would be interested in an alliance with him and I said I agreed. We decided on an alliance of five players so in case we did have to face tribe council, we would have the majority. Immediately, I included Wendy in on the alliance. The other two people we agreed on including was Alina and Jud because they both approached us and started the conversation. We all contacted the other players and they all agreed. So we had an extremely tight alliance of five players. I also started to build a good line of communication with another player named Sehmar. Through all the challenges we faced, we became even tighter. I believe she is someone who will have my back as the game continue. So after the first and second round, I had an alliance of Five players and a sixth player to have my own back.


As our tribe continued to win, I had the chance to talk to a few more players. I had a brief but nice conversation with Clarence. Basically talking about each other. He talked about playing in football and I help stimulate the conversation by saying how great that was to do something that's fun and healthy. He asked if I did anything like that. I told him that I worked out occasionally to stay in shape, but that was a lie lol. Anything to have more allies is beneficial for me in the game. After the last two challenges, I've spoken with Jimmy on a few occasion. Him sounds like a very nice guy to get along with. He was definitely supportive after the other tribes were getting on me about actually competing in the challenge. As far as Rupert, we haven't spoken much, but I believe we have understanding of each other. I certainly see him as a strong player as I'm sure he see me like that. I know there will be a time where I have to vote them off, but with our tribe's success, I'm glad I could hold that off until much farther into the game.


As the third challenge comes to an end and the other tribes go to Council, I worry that the amount of effort I displayed during the competition will be frowned upon when the tribe swap inevitably occurs. Because I stepped up to the plate to help my tribe win immunity, I made a lot of enemies on the Espada and Upolu tribes. The two players that stood out the most was Benry and Holly. Those two were the worst. Benry played dirty by spamming my posts to cover up and hide the throwers' posts. Wendy told how Benry could not be trusted and how awful he was. I already believed her, but his attitude on the challenge thread and in the message he sent just added to what was thought about him. Then there was Holly. Based on Upolu whole overall attitude, I could tell I wouldn't like them. Holly would be vocal about not wanting me there. I am glad that Brandon from their tribe was nice enough to extend the olive branch of peace and being respectful about the challenge. I was hoping that La Flor could have pulled it out near the end and get second place, but it was unfortunately not the case so they will be down to two players

With La Flor approaching two players left, it's likely the next round will be the tribe swap. I'm dreading this part of the game because this is the part where I get screwed over. Everything so far has been smooth sailing for me. But with everyone's eyes on me as being a possible challenge threat and the chance of being on a tribe full of people I won't like, there are so many things that could turn badly for me. At this point, all I can do is just brace myself for what happens and continue to play the game
