Hey!

Congratulations for making the Final 17! This is a huge accomplishment in Stranded, and particularly in an All-Winners season every day is an accomplishment!

1. Tribe Dynamics – the core to the game you are playing. How are you getting along with everybody so far? Who do you think is a threat? Do you have any plans for the present? Plans for the future? Plans for the past????

2. Challenges – how do you think that challenge went? How do you think the upcoming challenge will go? If you've done the challenge already, how did it go?

3. Hidden Immunity Idols and Secret Advantages – can’t live with them, can’t live without them. Do you think any are in the game? Do you know who has them? How’s the hunt going?

4. “You better get ready? It’s coming for you. The fire is burning and when this is through – one sole will survive. Winners at War.” What lyrics or song is playing as you pull off a badass move that affirms your badassery as a winner? (pls, I'm making a Spotify playlist)

Lol, that challenge. I'm kind of hoping that all 3 tribes just go to TC, to speed this along actually ~

Notwithstanding whatever happens with the immunity challenge, I think (????) I'm okay. Like I said before, I really think me and Cristina are in the driver's seat on this tribe. I do have some worries that Melinda, Loveita, Cassandra, and Penner may team up as the "top dogs" (and the fact that they bonded so much over the challenge yesterday definitely helps) but if they are, they're really snowing me. Cassandra and Penner have been *so* nice to me since we've swapped (especially Cassandra), and even though that may raise some flags in that maybe they're just trying to butter me up to feel comfortable, in reality, I think they're sweating bullets because they knew that they betrayed me with the Ziggy vote, and that I could easily flip on them if I wanted to.

Ideally, my preferred boot order would be:
- Me, Cassandra, and Penner target Melinda (I like Loveita better). Cristina flips to vote Melinda out 4-2.
- Loveita, now without any real allies, is desperate. Me and Cristina approach her with a new plan to team up, and we vote Penner out 3-2
- Me and Cristina are in the driver's seat. If even Loveita and Cassandra had the good sense to team up, their best case scenario is 2-2 tie. I'm sure I could just mist Cassandra to vote Loveita off.
- Me and Cristina vote Cassandra out after that.

Cochran getting voted out
Not looking forward to giant merge though.
