I made the merge somehow. Before this I truly didn't care about my place in the game. I figured I was definitely going out before the merge, but now that I'm here I feel pretty invested in what happens.
Basically, right now, at this moment, my best option is to vote with Tammy. She's the only person on this tribe who actively mistrusts me, and if I openly and obviously vote with her this round, AND survive the round, I've earned a bit of trust. If I earn trust, I can gain an advantage. If I don't earn her trust, I will absolutely get that wall back again. And she is the key to my game right now.
Remember what I said about Catalie and Melinda a few episodes ago? Don't toss it out the window right now, because I'm still weary of their intentions. But- there is a possibility that they may be allies for me in the future.
My strategy right now, is I'm building off of my own game, but with the knowledge of what worked and what didn't. Right now I'm feeling out for a final three situation. I really like Russell, Kim, Cassandra, Jeff, Catalie, and Melinda and feel like any one of them could work with me in some capacity, in an honest way. In a perfect world.
In the real world, none of them have my back right now, and none of them will stick their neck out for me. Calling it now, it's going to be a ruthless shit-show soon.
I am honestly just obsessed with Tammy. It's not healthy. On paper, she is in the best position here. Original purples have a numbers advantage if they want it, along with the benefit of having never truly betrayed each other in a tribal council. They've only eaten their own when there were no original golds in the mix. And now, the only original gold to vote WITH them has been Tammy. So it should seem like she's in the best spot because she's in the middle.
But this is an all winners game, so someone is going to see that she's in the spot and mark her as a huge danger to anyone who has a plan to keep the original tribes together. Of course, all of this might just be a false social narrative in order to hide preexisting friendships and alliances. I haven't had the luxury of one of those until this merge, and just look at how easily I fell into the trap of past relationships? It's just too easy, everyone is absolutely going to do them.
