1. A thrilling immunity challenge there. How do you all feel about Richie dramatically holding off Madame D. thanks to M. Gustave’s round 5 blitz?
It was quite an exciting challenge! In the end, it seems speed was more rewarded than accuracy on that challenge which was a blunder on my part. I went for accuracy and that was clearly the inferior strategy this round. The round 5 blitz did make things interesting and clearly Richie now has a 1 in 4 chance at winning this game as a result. It's weird how the actions we take at various stages of this game have an effect at the end of the game. So in a way this challenge mirrors the actual game we are playing.
2. Why should the other players keep you here?
I think I have had the worst jury management of any of the 5 remaining players. I also have never won a challenge and barring some amazing performance in the final challenge, I don't think that's going to change. I would therefore like to think I am an ideal person to keep here because I think pretty much anyone beats me at this point, which is a really defeating thing to say out loud.
3. Who do you hope to send out at this TC? Impress the jury and call your shot like Duke did a few TCs back.
I would rather Richie had lost the challenge and been able to vote him. I think that was just what was going to happen if he lost and even he knows it. 4 people took a gamble last round and saved me in order to vote out Margot. So on the sheer fact that I know the other 3 people stuck up for me when my name was clearly thrown out and received votes, there is no one I hope to send out this TC. No matter who I vote, I backstab someone who saved me last round. That's been the worst revelation of all of these events and just continues to add to my horrible jury/people management because whoever goes here is going to feel hurt by me. I feel like I'm at a loss as a result and saying who I hope goes here is absolutely cruel from my point of view. I view these people as my friends at this point and losing friends is hard. But I have to do something. That's the entire point of this game, regardless of how awful I feel about this. I have to write someone's name down.
4. Following up on the above, with only 5 players left, how much can you just put your cards on the table and fight out here in public? How much needs to be kept private?
Any time you aren't immune you have the chance to go. This round one of Me, Suzy, Madame or Gustave is going to go home. I don't want to fight anyone. That just sounds god awful to me. I hope no one else wants to do a public fight because we are all fucking exhausted. We can if we want, but I'd rather just do this in private and have those conversations I need to have.
5. Who is watching Life Aquatic now that it's free on Amazon?
I'm having a lovely evening with my friend and watching Veronica Mars reruns with her. It's probably the best I've felt all week after a shitty time with classes and an internship. I'll have to bark at the Aquarium movie another time.
