^ They did fine, I am lowkey rooting for Andrea. But they were exploited to get me out. I kinda hope they overcome the majority if possible, though. Jamal likes Andrea and I can see a F4 of Jamal-Phoebe-Jefra-Andrea for sure.

Oh yeah, a side note, I am 10000000% Jamal has the OG Raro idol, he got to the 1st task the night Marcus left. He tried telling me he didn't do the posting 1-1000, lol, as if. So in hindsight blindsiding him over Zach with his idol would've been good. But I wasn't going F5 with nuVuku, hell no. :X I can at least root for Jefra-Sarah-Hayden now!

Okay, after talking for a bit with Locky & Zach, I think I finally have a clear picture on what the dynamics of nuRaro were. It seems that Phoebe-Jamal-Sarah-Jefra had a thing going on, Locky-Hayden being a tight duo, and Sarah playing all sides there.
So in hindsight my dislike of Jamal was correct, and booting him at F11 would be the best choice, breaking the 4 since Sarah/Phoebe were immune.
Phoebe-Jamal were never close on OG Raro, but I think they bonded over the idol hunt post swap. Originally I had 12 keys, Jamal gave me the 13th and Phoebe gave me the 14th. I realized I wasn't getting the word, so I gave the 14th key to Jamal, but he told me he didn't find it at the merge, which was a complete lie. I'm sure he had told Phoebe I gave him the key and she knew I didn't share it with her, so her distrust of me grew there.
I WAS THIS CLOSE TO MAKING THE RIGHT MOVE, LMFAO. But yeah booting Jamal >>> booting Jefra there. Btw I'm annoyed @ Auby and Andrea for totally shutting me down, but I think they did a good job post that vote. I did tell them Jamal was an emotional mess and they used that against me, so gj.

Sorry to see you both here Silas & locky  Silas - you were very entertaining since the start and it was exciting to see what you had in store for us each round. You should be proud that you made it this far since you've been to every tribal and just got unlucky with the numbers and whatnot. If you made it through this #doubleboot, what were your plans for this round? Locky - you were such a great player and I really thought you had a good chance at making the end until the merge boot round. I know you know that you made some mistakes but I felt like there were opportunities that you could have explored after that round but you stuck with your alliance. That is a thing I like about you though is that you're super loyal and a great ally to have. It sucked to see you leave with an idol. If you played it, what would your game-plan be moving forward? Questions for both: Does grilled cheese (Silas) and Britney (Locky) trigger you guys?  Thanks so much for playing guys  |

HI and OMG I'm still not over the fact that I was voted out  I really don't know what happened but I feel like this was the result of me spilling to zach. People started not trusting me and found me shady for even doing that and that made them distance away from me. I was trusting of my alliance but I knew something was up. I just didn't follow my instincts. I was on the EDGE of playing that idol but I thought hey maybe I can save it for another round. It's funny that I said I would not go home with an idol but here we are. All I can do now is cry about it. And this stupid souvenir is all I have for this game.  |

I honestly don't know what I could have done to survive another round had I played the idol. But I would probably start negotiating with some people. I'm not good at it tho lol but I feel like Hayden was the only one who stuck with me till the bitter end so I am afraid I might see him soon unless he can make it further.
YES NEVER LISTENING TO ANOTHER BRITNEY SONG AGAIN

Telling zach the vote was aubry lol. and not using my idol when I knew something felt wrong
Gamewise? Not really. I loved the cast, I loved talking to a lot of them and I felt I really belonged to the group, it's rare to see so many people so genuinely want to talk to you. I felt that here, I felt the love of the people here. This was a really great cast. And I enjoyed every second of it. I do regret not using my idol but I really have no hard feelings for anyone here.
Hayden <3 he's my bromance, my ride or die, my best bud. I want to see him get to the end.
Jamal please, or anyone who was in on my vote. THE NERVE OF THESE NERDS!
My favorite moment was finding the idol. Also winning every challenge premerge in any tribe I went to. That was just amazing to watch lol.
Aubry - she's ok
Andrea - she was ok
Hayden - BROMANCE <3
Sarah - The Apex Nerd
Jefra - The Valorant Nerd
Jamal - The Pathfinder Nerd
Phoebe - The Accountant Nerd

If you made it through this #doubleboot, what were your plans for this round? Questions for both: Does grilled cheese (Silas) and Britney (Locky) trigger you guys? Thanks so much for playing guys Heyy, Kat Spears <3 Let me start with the grilled cheese thing, lol. It doesn't "trigger" me so to say, but it was funny when I saw that was the word. Tbh I think I told Justin we don't have/eat grilled cheese here, so I wasn't getting it no matter what, lol. I thought one of the words had to do with "ie" "ei" kinda combination, but I was really off the base there. I was not meant to get that idol and I've made peace with that, lol. Ty, I think it was actually quite the journey for sure, I almost bombed the first round by oversleeping the challenge, but it was quite the ride ever since then. After speaking with Locky last night, I think my "initial plans" were still quite bad, given I had an overall wrong read on nuRaro. Had Aubry/Andrea left, I was hoping to side with Sarah-Jefra-Hayden to oust Phoebe-Jamal next, but 2 of those (Sarah-Jefra) had a thing going on with Ph-J, so that wasn't gonna work. A side note, it seems that voting me out was good for Jamal and voting out Locky was kinda bad for Sarah (given he was true to her). I hope she can overcome it somehow though. And I am lowkey looking forward to Aubry, I hope she is not one of the next 2 to go. I may dislike her approach to the social game, but her mantra has always been strategy 1st, so if she can pull it over this way, good for her in my eyes. And I prefer someone who empasizes game over outside game stuff, trying to reel people in with that, so she would get points for that too. I think Andrea will be fine for the next 2 rounds for sure, lowkey hoping Aubry can overcome it too, and heck even Hayden. In short, I hope the endgame is more interesting than I expect it to be. |

-What was the fatal error you made in your game?
Probably a lot of people are expecting me to say booting Zach over Jamal, which seems to be the case to an extent, but not really. I mean right after reuniting with Jamal at merge I remembered why I disliked him as much pre-swap, but after stumbling Zach at Ponderosa, I have to admit I still prefer Jamal > Zach in terms of just annoyance. Jamal had obviously long given up on me after Brenda-Jaime had left for reaasons that I would like not to dismiss, cuz it has to do with his character, lol. And he lied that he didn't get the idol, too, so yeah. Plus being in the power alliance of nuRaro. But I believe my fatal error was not trusting Locky more tbh. I had him pinned as someone on Jamal's side (with Phoebe) and decided to trust Sarah instead, when it seems to have been the other way around. Not trusting Locky enough has to do with him leaking to Zach as well, I mean, he seemed to be in good with the 2 people I disliked the most, so I felt we wouldn't do too well in terms of putting a group together, lmao. But I think that was what was my fatal error tbh. Had me-him talked it out at the merge vote, maybe we'd know Jamal's true position and slayed him. But oh well, I was this close to doing out just based on my dislike of him, too bad my disdain of Zach was just stronger.
-Any regrets?
Pretty much getting paranoid at the Alicia vote and playing my 50/50 coin and not voting out Andrea then. I mean if I played the coin, I should've at least voted out Andrea, lol.
-Who are you rooting for?
I'd say everyone that is not Jamal. He likes to interwine his RL troubles too much with this game and it was godawful daunting to be around him and be troubled by stuff from a stranger that I could care less about. We all have our struggles and stuff IRL, but I'm not trying to outlet them in an ORG to internet strangers.
-Who do you want to see join you in Ponderosa next?
That's a tough one, cuz I doubt Jamal is joining and I kinda wanna grill him at the end too. Maybe Phoebe, just cuz I am lowkey rooting for everyone else? And she screwed me twice by running her mouth this game, once at Chelsea and I think at least twice with Jamal.
-What was your favourite moment in the game?
Voting out Chelsea and Zach, I think? Besides that I enjoyed Sarah-Jefra-Hayden and heck even Alicia's teatrics.
-Say one word (or use gifs from the smileys) about the remaining players
You guys know I suck @ this, so will do later. LOL

 locky I'm so sad to see you here You played a strong game and it's unfortunate that you thought you were with an alliance that you weren't part of.  They kept you out of the vote and you still did not use it.... That's the worst cuz you had 100% control over that! Has your opinion changed on any of the remaining tribe mates?  side note: please stay away from Zach you cannot handle that wild horse |

Silas boy do I have somethings to say to you...... but I was told to keep it classy so I will stay classy, sassy and a bit bad assy I'm so sorry to see you here I really wanted you to go very far in this game I started off not feeling you because of the alias hunting You kept the game interesting and you lasted longer than I expected after those few rounds Seems like there was a movement to keep you but just unlucky it didn't work out in your favor. It sucks to see you fall short. you played a great game Do you think people were intimidated by you and that is the reason you were evicted?  |

Hi, Diva. <3 Jsyk, I do love your rhymes, they be cracking me up. I will do this now since I am in the mood for writing, which doesn't happen often btw. Writing takes a lot of effort and it's somewhat painful for me (I mean at least texts, I've always been like that. I guess I'm fine with DMing, lol). Now let me get this straight out of the gate with the alias hunting. I think I've only played 2 games since this type of play has been on, and I do enjoy it too, but for me the alias hunting is kinda a fun part of it, as long as I do it to myself, you know? I remember in my 1st all alias game I was soooo off base that I was mocked in PW, and I laughed at it post-game, like I don't get offended. And also, I do not think it also really affects my game at all. In this case, the 2 people I was "hunting" turned out to be working with me when I thought we should be together, and went against them when I thought it was time to. I really don't put too much emphasis on it tbh when it comes to game, it's just for funs to see how wrong/right I was at the end of the game. But I will say that 1 of those peoeple indeed felt like "fishing" out if I was "in their games" and I tried to shut that down asap. That's that pretty much. Tbh I think I did better than I should have, lmfao. I am pretty content with my pre-merge game and I guess it went downhills post merge, but I just didn't have that one ally I wanted to go all the way with, mainly cuz I disliked most of the people I have been with up to that point. As I said, I preferred Jefra-Hayden-Sarah-Locky much more than everyone I had met pre-merge, except for Brenda. We weren't going to become each other's #1 at the merge, let's not kid ourselves here. But that was just my luck with the draws and all I guess, so I am content with that. Yeah, that seems to have been the case at F11, but I guess I kinda "overplayed" there by telling Aubry-Andrea and pinning the vote on Jamal (which I believe was ultimately the right choice in hindsight). I mean, you know what my premise was telling Aubry-Andrea, but they were so butthurt I got out their F3 they wanted revenge so badly. I know it will work out for Andrea cuz she has medicore social game, but I kinda hope it works for Aubry too, and they can defy my annoyance with them after it. Tbh, last night I told Zach him and Jamal are so similar they would have gotten along pretty well imho. They both really want and need attention, that they think just "talking" to them means we like them. I remember Jamal being put off by Locky-Hayden's relationship, cuz Hayden was apparently the second one he talked most to after me. I guess he was really butthurt I wanted him gone too. I am not looking forward to my confessionals being opened, haha. I remember him thinking "Andrea HAD to like him", he really is desperate for some kind of confirmation and people liking me. Does that sound like someone else here? Oh yeah, it totes does.  The difference between the 2 is that Jamal wants people who will succumb to his condenscending and intidimating ways and let him reel out his IRL troubles to him, lmfao. But maybe that makes him a better player than Zach, idk. And no, I don't think people were intimidated by me at all. Tbh I've been pretty tame here (except for my confeshs), I think I was kinda confrontational only 2 times in this game, 1 to Chelsea after Phoebe leaked to her she was being called "nuts" and the other one at Aubry after the Zach vote. I think Aubry has pretty bad and black and white view of how this game should be played, but as I said, hopefully she defies my impression of her on that. I'd be down for it, even despite her terrible social game, lol. But anyhow, ty for the entertainment gurl, and I loved that special smile of the day. <3 |

Btw I'm saying this here, just so people (mainly from that 4) who come after know it. I never intended to take Zach-Aubry-Andrea-Alicia to F5. That would have been a disastrous endgame, even if it meant me making it further. I hated my time on nuVuku enough to play with them for that long. I am much happier with the many other possible out comes right now and I own that shit. <3

Has your opinion changed on any of the remaining tribe mates? side note: please stay away from Zach you cannot handle that wild horse I know! it sucks that I thought that my alliance was still with me but that's how it is. Sometimes you just trust someone and hope that they do the same. And no, like I said I have no hard feelings for any of them for doing what they did. It was probably my own doing why they didn't trust me anymore but at the end of the day, it's a game and I will still want to see NuRaro succeed. They were the tribe I wanted to be with since the beginning and I hope I see them at the end. |
