What did you make of the events of tonight and how do you plan on acting on them moving forward?

[Nate]

- Tue Oct 11, 2016 4:05:55 am #4242 I don't know.

On one hand, holy shit that fucking happened. Is that a first? I feel like nobody was expecting that to happen.

On the second hand and actually answering your question, I feel like I don't have that much of a gameplan this season versus Faroe where everything was just planned out at every single stage and i had an idea of who was going every TC.

Bet that Dan finds the idol and idols me out, which I guess would be fair.

- Tue Oct 11, 2016 6:34:20 am #4287 Nate, who are you alligned with in this game?

[Nate]

- Tue Oct 11, 2016 11:58:05 am #4298 I guess my alliance is Heidi, Tammy, Penner, Myself, Ozzy and probably Val.

My closest ties are too Ozzy and I'm going to try to get Penner on that level because I distrust the four OG Saipans

On the other side, I have relationships with Sierra and Hayden which I also need to try to make stronger due to the distrusting OG Saipans thing.

But for the short-term (at least until F9) I plan on staying the course and not rocking the boat. Typical, boring Nate. I just want two days without any fake idol bluffs that shouldn't have worked if Dan wasn't cocky as Dan is or idol plays or tie votes or potential rock draws.

Ugh.

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 12:45:15 am #4340 "Typical, boring Nate."

Do you think these are the words of a winner?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:02:38 am #4354 in what sense?

the self-deprecation sense, no, but I'm not a point where I think I have a solid chance of winning yet. I do think that is more of a reference to when Poody called me boring at Tribal Council.

the "boring winner" sense, well, the three seasons that happened since I've been here had Val, Penner and Mookie, and I feel like you can make an argument that they were all more boring than their peers

[Mia Galeotalanza]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:07:48 am #4359 bitch this is the first time I've had time to pay attention to this game so idk what boring comments you're talking about.

How do you make sure you're not a boring winner?

[Kelly Wigles]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:07:58 am #4360 Hey Nate, have you had any fallout from Dan over the fake idol?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:15:29 am #4370 not really? he sent a couple messages telling me to stop sucking mookie's dick, that he'll poison the jury against me, etc., but that's what Dan does anyway.

I think Val's been receiving more vitriol than me, but I'm not in her shoes so I wouldn't know

[Nate]

bitch this is the first time I've had time to pay attention to this game so idk what boring comments you're talking about.

How do you make sure you're not a boring winner?

oh no worries, i was just pointing it out.

Well, I first need to see if I can be the winner first to be honest. I think there's still a handful of other people who are probably more likely to win than me (probably Ozzy, Sierra, Hayden as a dark horse, maybe Penner)

[Kelly Wigles]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:20:37 am #4376 Would you say that you're sqaurely against Dan?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:29:22 am #4383 I guess? I need to be nicer than him and talk to him more than Val does in case of a random idol play or something, but I think the best move for my game is getting him out.

[Kelly Wigles]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:32:05 am #4386 With the idols playing such a huge part in the game, do you think anyone has found the new one yet? Who are the likely suspects of unlocking an idol in the tribe?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:40:21 am #4396 lmao @ Tammy sending a message referring to needing to keep "us four" safe, and then sends a message saying "oh i screwed up I was excluding Val"

6 - 4 = 2 Tammy, I'm not a tard.

Likely suspect is Dan because he has the most incentive and was on for the longest period of time yesterday.

[Kelly Wigles]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:41:47 am #4398 Wait could explain this further? Who were the 4?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:46:25 am #4404 I'm presuming the Saipans. She sent it to a group chat with six people.

It was in the context of "I don't think I can get a sense of security until its only us four in the game". I know I'm not in a four person group chat.

I know Penner and Ozzy have both been flirting with the idea of flipping and making a move against Tammy/Heidi with me at F9. And long-term that's definitely part of the plan. It's just what do I do after that that matters.

[Kelly Wigles]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 1:48:13 am #4407 I have to say, I'm definitely impressed with your perceptive abilities thus far in the game. Are Ozzy and Penner your main alliance right now?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 2:34:47 am #4465 i'd say my strongest relationships versus an alliance, I'm not sure where Ozzy/Penner stand with each other (most of my talking to Penner is done in a different timezone to me) but I do like the flexibility of choice.

Penner is closer if not with the Purples and is a former winner, Ozzy is a challenge beast

[Mia Galeotalanza]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 2:57:54 am #4476 Do you think you can whip Ozzy/Penner into shape to work closely together for your sake?

[Nate]

- Wed Oct 12, 2016 3:00:46 am #4483 I don't even know if I want them to work closely. I think both will work together if they have to, but I'll judge that based off their specific relationships when it comes to it
