So I guess I will give a quick rundown heading into the DE. As I mentioned in my last post Renny filled me in on Caleb's bringing my name. And as far as I can tell from my logs I never actually promised I wouldn't put him up if I won at DE so there is that. There is also the fact I could miss the HoH for the DE so that doesn't even matter. He ideally would be my target. I guess what I wanted to do is at the midpoint(ish) of this game I want to give you guys a breakdown on how I view everyone in the game.
-As I have mentioned in the past, I love this girl! She is so much fun to talk and we flow pretty well game wise. However she has emphasized a couple times that she keeps our relationship on the down low and she didn't really fill me in on Caleb saying anything against me. Renny claims she has 0 ties with Caleb, and Britney claimed they were close at one point, so why tell Renny and not tell Britney. With that being said I am trying to convince myself that I am just paranoid and that we are still ride or die for the time being.
-This dude is falling into the Da'Vonne role. I have talked very little game to him, despite talking to him a fair bit and enjoying his company. A few people have mentioned their lack of relationship with him so I am not sure how great his social game is. Rumor is he is close with Victoria who is possibly close to Caleb (according to Britney). I think I would throw him up if I got into to power but I think it would be as a pawn.
- Same as Nick. He is a cool dude with an interesting backstory as a personal trainer. However we have talked very little game and he is the only person I have any sort of ammunition on. He's good in challenges with helps my case of getting him out. Britney claims they aren't close anymore so that aspect isn't holding me back from targeting him. The issue is if he goes on the jury, and I end up on the jury the challenge getting back in is made much more difficult which is a reason to potentially keep him in the game until after that twist is over.
- I haven't talked to Victoria in about a week. Similar to Nick/Caleb there has been very little game talk between me and her. We talked a lot when I was HoH but she only mentioned Kevin/Rachel as targets and now they are both gone so now I am concerned on who her next target is. Maybe the person she hasn't talked to in 2 weeks? I would probably throw her or Caleb up next to Nick and target that person. The scary part is both she and Caleb are really good at challenges which could blow up in my face.
- Steve and I started well. I mentioned that I was a little uneasy because he offered so little information but it really doesn't bother me as long as he views me as someone that is useful. I never get out all the information I know so people my think I am their lackey when that is not the case. Now he and I haven't talked as much so I am not sure where we are at trust wise. I think a lot of people view it as not worth it because me and Jace are this inseparable duo which isn't the case. Hopefully I can repair this relationship because I am going to need it.
- Really like the dude. Haven't talked to him since we made a deal last round so hopefully he honors it. I think he is in the middle of the game and in a really good spot. However with Caleb in the game he isn't really on my radar at this point. Hopefully I can build a relationship with him so I can use him in the future. If I was him I would definitely not try to win HoH tonight because I don't see him going up unless he's viewed as semi active and people still want to play it safe.
- Love Renny! She could be my number one after this round. I am actually talking to her about it right now. I just don't get the feeling she's playing super strategic like Britney. I also don't think people will see it coming since I wanted her out in Round 2. Maybe I am giving her more credit than deserved for selling out Caleb but I think we could be a deep game threat and I think she'd be easier to beat in the finals than Jace/Britney.
- My bro! He can't be around much longer if I am going to win this game. But obviously I can't turn against him which is going to require some luck and making sure that if we are on the block together that I am the one who is able to either win veto, or survive the eviction. I think we are a similar page game wise. Right now I think it is Jace/Me/Angie vs. Nick/Victoria/Caleb but we shall see. This round will hopefully flesh out where everybody is in this game.
- I feel like she could be an easy boot this round which would be bad. I cannot lose another ally. Alison, Jen, Rachel, Kevin. I really like her and she is kind of linked with us for the time being. Of course the downside with her is I think she would keep Jace over me which links back to my last point of needing to be able to survive over Jace. Maybe she'll bail us out and win tonight.
