Ughhh I love endurance comps but I don't know how I did in this one. I got 8, but I don't know if that's enough. I don't really know what the factors to this one are, but I think my strategy of copying and pasting the img into the Reply box at the bottom was the best possible. I think the only other things that will affect people's posts are internet/computer/proboard speed. I KNOW I could have done 9 because I did it before, but all it took was a little lag.
So, let's review: I feel safe with Jun, Porsche and Sarah. Maybe Dustin, but I haven't talked to him in a while. Let's hope one of us four wins this thing, and once again I have a 50/50 chance. I really really want to win it, but I don't know if I did well enough. I'm just glad to have made it past 9th place, but I need to pick it up in the competitions if I'm going to give these people a reason to vote for me if I make it to the end.
I think that, socially, I've played the game very well so far. I seriously have not made one single alliance in this game, I've just had trusted friends. I've never talked final 2, final 4, final whatever, I've just let people know that "hey, I'm voting to keep you!" or "If I were to win I wouldn't put you up." Maybe these subtle hints at partnership are the best way to make it through this game, because everyone who has been proposing big moves or alliances has been blindsided (that's the word of the day!) with people calling them out for this and that. Plus, I know that I could never be blamed for betrayal or backstabbing because I haven't made any promises to anyone, but every little detail I mentioned to people I have come through on.
Anyway, I just want to win this HoH. I would put up Nicole and Renny, I think, because I haven't talked to them hardly at all. Putting up Parker and Dustin might give me some edge with the newbies though, but I don't know how I would feel about that. Also, if I made final 2, I think Jordan might just vote for me, because my eviction speeches have told her that I didn't want her to go and that I wish she could've stayed. Let's hope I make it that far to find out!
