Seems like the general consensus of the tribe is that the two ladies are the weakest and will go first. Well, Kim can't go because that's my dawg, so if we were to lose, I'd subtly push for Renee to go. In terms of strategizing, not a lot going on since we haven't lost yet. This group really is nice (or seemingly nice), so it'll be interesting to see what goes down when the time does come to play the game. I'm ready to start playing and seeing where people stand.
JEB and I had another convo to solidify our bond and talk shit like the divas we are. We're thinking me, him, Kim, and maybe Sam since we agreed on the same people we like. Shit ain't going to hit the fan until we lose... le sigh.

FML! how did i get put into a "leader" like role? This challenge is a breeze and would be easy for me to put together something immaculate, but there are things that you must consider before being the tribe shining star -
(a) they never forget, which can serve as ammunition to get rid of me down the road because of my "strength" and (b) i have to actually be nice and all about the team when in reality losing wouldn't be so bad.
If these people think that we're all going to stick together as Kwele when twists begin to take place, they have another thing coming. I'm all about bigger and better... so I'm looking to make moves and do whatever, charm whoever, and be whoever to make it to the end.
I've been slaving over this challenge (hahahaha, not) so that our team wins.. but our SOS distress space looks like crap. I can't make it obvious that I'm not giving 100%, but it's hard to sit back and see some of the ideas and things that have been suggested (I mean, I'm a photographer and graphic artist for pete's sake)... I'd rather Hash be the hero and the leader of the tribe.
I'm more focused on the "if we lose" scenario and how I can secure my four.

You'll have to excuse my bi-polar antics -- strategically, i'm exploring the idea of being the bitchy villain versus being a wholesome, trustworthy guy (which is usually how I play). I have the amazing ability to connect with all kind of people pretty easily, but I tend to befriend everyone and get caught in a pickle. It's been a while since I've played one of these, but I always go out pretty close to the end because I'm too nice or don't play hard enough, so I want to avoid that this time.
Earlier today, Hash approached me about an alliance. At this stage in the game, I'll take it. He seems like a really nice guy, super trustworthy, but he's definitely a tough competitor. It's too early to know whether it'll be good to have him on my side or throw him to the wolves.
One thing is for sure, I've set myself in a place where I don't think I will be voted out of this bunch anytime soon.

Things are shaping up to be as interesting as I expected for this first Tribal Council. Everyone is going haywire and NOW the game has begun. So, being a bitch is so much more fun since I'm a "nice" person all day, every day of my life. With that said, I'm befriending everyone to get info, but I don't want Kim to go. That's my daaawg. Soooo, that means one of these other betches (besides JEB and Kim) need to go. Who? Doesn't matter to me, as long as it ain't me. I'll regroup no matter who it is.
I came up with a plan to save Kim and shared it with her - basically, she needs to use her idol (although she may not need to if Renee doesn't use hers) to save herself. JEB, Kim, and I will need to split our votes between Renee and another person (in case Renee uses her idol) and either Renee or that other person will go home. Kim mentioned Hash and I was down. Do I feel bad? Just a little, but it's a game. He doesn't seem to be too worried about it, but if I were him and I knew what I knew, I would play it. Who knows, he may be playing me and actually play it, but he trusts me a lot from what it seems so I have no reason to doubt what he says.
The guys seem like they have worked out a plan (4 votes for Renee and 2 votes for Kim) to cover their basis, but if both ladies play their idols, Kim and Renee's votes are super powerful.

Confessional: Some new, late, breaking developments are in order. It's looking like Hash is going to get super blindsided tonight. Me and my homegirl JEB were hashing out our plans and we presented a lot of different options: (a) playing along with the male alliance (the six men) and voting however they want us to vote, but get both of the girls to play their idols and send Hash home. (b) voting with Kim and Renee (but still have Renee play her idol), with the hope that we would be helping our alliance in the long run by Kim keeping her idol. We're leaning towards voting with the girls because strategically it seems smarter to vote in such a way that Kim doesn't need to use her idol if she doesn't have to. JEB and I are such bitches and I love it. We are going to get major flack for this move, but it's the game and we're here to play. This is what we're going to do for all the haters after TC:

K, so we won't get the opportunity to show the tribe that we're some bad bitches just yet (since Kim is definitely using her idol, so there is no need for JEB and I to vote for Hash), but the time will come. In terms of strategy, it actually works out better for JEB and I to not look like the assholes we truly are.
