I am the brawn (though technically I think I classify as all three)

I would consider you the beauty…DAYUM!

I know, right? I mean, who can resist this body?

So yeah a bit has happened.

So in ranking the tribes, BBB decided to just vote us three to the top, just cause everyone pretty much knew we were a solid block. And THANK GOD we did that, cuz the tribes swapped, and luckily we are all together because of how we ranked each other. So I had to go to work pretty soon after the tribes got swapped, and apparently A LOT went down.

So it was the same challenge that we had at this point last season, and being the person who had to post 100 times, I was not the biggest fan of it. Luckily I only got 60, but unfortunately(?) I didn't even get to post once, cause Phillip took the immunity.

Apparently Penner was trying to get it to, but he wasn't doing it for safety. He was doing it so they could get rid of Phillip! Which is great news, cause that means their tribe is dividing, and BBB wont be annihilated if we lose any challenges. So yeah, I guess Penner and Jeremiah came to Bob and said that they want Phillip and Whitney gone. I somehow got put into some "core 4" group chat with Penner, Jeremiah and Bob, but shit I'm not complaining. Now that Phillip is immune, we're gonna switch votes to Whitney. We're gonna fake it that we're voting for Morgan tho, so that Whitney doesn't play an idol if she has one.

OH AND ON THE NOTE OF IDOLS. WHO THE FUCK FOUND OURS!!?!?!?!?

Ughhhhhh I totally thought our alliance was about to have an idol. It's tough to get to that thing though, I have no idea how Allie or Brice could've got it on their own. And the scary thing is, now they know the password to the other tribes idol, so if that one hasn't been found already, they could easily get it, then boom, two idols. That is way too much power. I'm debating on if we should warn their tribe of the idols to try and flush them, but I think Allie and Brice are still loyal to the original Sibiu tribe, so idk.

But yeah, hopefully Whit goes home, and then Phillip after that if we have to go to another tribal. I'd like to avoid any for a while after that though, at least until we get an original Sibiu as leader on their tribe, so that we don't have a deadlocked 3-3 vote. But who knows, with all these twists gettin' thrown at us, we always gotta stay on our toes!

So despite how terrible I did on that challenge, I am very pleased with my results. But Chicken, you lost! I know what I did fool! I meant to lose! You see, before the challenge was announced, Mikayla over at the Namco tribe approached me asking for us to throw the challenge, because if they lose, she'll probably go home.  So of course, wanting to keep all my options open, I consider throwing the comp. As luck would have it, Mikayla and I get paired up for the challenge. So I go to her and say, hey, I can't guarantee what everyone else will do, but if you give me your time, i'll make sure I do worse.  I call bullshit! You're just covering your ass cuz you sucked at that challenge. Oh yeah? Well than how did I know that the time I had to exceed was 17 MINUTES? . . .

That's what I thought.

So yes, I threw the challenge, regardless of whether I actually could've won it or not, so Mikayla wont be mad at me. Nobody else in the tribe wanted to throw, which was fine, cause it's not like I absolutely need Mikayla in the game. She's a potential ally down the line, but not somebody I have to rely on. Honestly I'd like to win a god damn challenge cuz i'm sick of tribal council, but we have an easy vote in Phillip, so there's really no stress this round. Just gotta wait it out and see who wins this challenge.

[chicken]

I'm sorry, what was that? I don't have to go to tribal council? I'm not sure I follow what you're saying. I actually get to relax this round and not worry about people scrambling for votes? I'm sorry, this is a foreign concept to me, forgive me if it takes me a while to understand it all.

But alas, even without tribal council, our tribe still manages to have some drama. Apparently Morgan is super paranoid about Bob being super close with Penner, whom with he apparently has a pre-game alliance. I still think Bob is more loyal to us, but Morgan is worried and wants to take out Penner sooner rather than later to make sure Bob is loyal to us and only us. I think that's not the greatest idea, mostly because I think we'll lose Bob's trust, but we really don't need to worry about this till much later in the game. He's allied with us, so there's no reason to start cannibalizing ourselves. Especially when someone else on the tribe has decided to paint a big ol' target on his back (hint: he's secretly a model)

So Bob tells me and Morgan that Jeremiah had a plan hatched to get him, Penner, Phillip, and Sherea, who would've been at our tribal council, to all vote for Bob. Penner however relayed all this information to Bob, saying he's 100% with us. While this should make Morgan more secure that Penner is with us, I feel like it's just going to make her more paranoid that they're an unbreakable duo. Whatever, we have two easy votes in case we have to go to council. Hopefully we don't have another Gobi Desert situation, where we're left with just us 4 alliance members on the tribe, then lose the immunity challenge and go to tc and turn on each other, cause my track record isn't great in those scenarios.

Morgan does have me thinking though how close Bob is with Penner. I mean, as soon as the tribes were swapped, I was put into this alliance chat with Bob, Penner, and Jeremiah, and i'm pretty sure Bob hooked me up there after talking with Penner. I still don't mind it though. Right now, he's my ally too, so I have no reason to want him gone yet. Bob is playing a good game and keeping his options open. I need to be doing the same thing. I need back up plans in case this alliance doesn't work out. I was hoping that Whitney or Mikayla could've been that plan B, but that's probably not gonna happen. Apparently Yve is still super chatty with Bob, so he has her too. I'm beginning to realize how big of a threat Bob is. I'm in a tough situation. My gameplay right now has been very utr I think, which I think will get me far, since targets will be on Bob and Morgan come merge rather than myself, but I don't know if I'll be able to win. I'm gonna need to start forging some new relationships so if the time comes, I can make a big move that can justify the jury members to give me there votes. It's all about timing though, I have to wait for just the right moment, otherwise, it's game over for ol' Chicken.

[chicken]

So looks like I get another break from tc since Bob and Phillip have just dominated this challenge. I'm really worried about that follow up tc tho. Bob wants to win individual immunity so that Phillip doesn't which makes sense, but with him and either Yve or Allie unable to vote at tc, I'm not sure if we'll have the numbers to control the vote, and that puts me in a lot of danger. A lot of people see me as Bobs #2 (which isn't exactly inaccurate) so I could be an easy target. The move this round might be to convince one of the Napacos to turn on each other, so that I still have Yve and Allie here, because at this point, its between one of them, and whoever doesn't get booted at the first one will have immunity and wont vote at the second one. Bob thinks he can turn LJ, and I think I might be able to turn Mikayla, but Mikayla may be the one LJ wants to turn on, so we have to wait and see what happens there. This is about the point I got booted last season, so I gotta make sure history doesn't repeat itself.

[chicken]

Ugh sorry I'm slow to the vote but i'm so confused/annoyed/frustrated about whats gonna happen that I don't know who I should be voting for.

The plan was, since the Napaco 4 are super tight and don't plan on turning on each other yet (I'll elaborate later) the vote is probs gonna be for Allie or Yve. So, Bob and I felt the best plan was to scare Allie into using her idol, so that we can knock out a Napaco member. The thing is, Allie is dilusional, and seems to think the vote is gonna go 6-1 towards Mikayla going home, even though she said that she has no confirmed votes towards Mikayla, and even after I told her the only names I'm hearing are hers and Yves. So she might not use the idol, which honestly, is fine. I don't like her, I can never understand her, so that eliminates a wild card player with more power than she needs. But I don't even know if Allie is the person the 4 are voting for. I'm trying to get an answer (hence why i'm so late) but i'm not getting anything. If I vote for Allie and she stays, she's gonna come after me. I also don't want to vote for any of the Napaco members, because they'll be after me in the joint tribal council if I do that.

I mean, after thinking it out, Allie seems to be the obvious choice. I mean, she wont even be at the next tc if she survives, so that helps me. Idk, I still want to talk to Bob and Morgan before I cast my vote, but they don't seem to be on right now. Ughhhhhhh, I just hope I don't fuck things up RIGHT BEFORE THE GOD DAYUM MERGE. If I get booted this close to the merge again I am going to cut so many bitches its not even funny.

Also, to elaborate on the "yet," Mikayla has told me that she might be willing to flip come merge, she just think that its too early now, which I respect. Hopefully she's telling the truth, cause she could be super helpful to my game. Bob has Penner as his backup, so I need my own backup. I'm worried though, cause if Allie does use the idol, Mikayla is probably the one going home D: we'll just have to see what happens

[chicken]

Fuuuuccccckkkkkkk so i'm extremely terrified of this next vote. I have a very very good shot of going home. According to Morgan my name has been thrown around along with Penners, and I can only assume Morgan is just as good a target as either of us too. So one of us is probably going home. I guess the Napaco 4 weren't on board for voting out Phillip. Whatever, i'm just gonna have to work my Chicken magic on these peoples to convince them to keep me around to fight another day. Hopefully at the expense of Penner rather than Morgan, but at this point, as long as I stay, either of them can pack up and go. I think my ticket may be to convince Mikayla to talk the others into taking out Penner or Morgan. She seems like she wants to make a move, and she's gonna need some numbers on her side to do that. I can assure her i'll be one of those numbers. I might have to make similar deals with others on the tribe. I'm really bummed, once again I could be sent home right before the merge. This CANT happen. I refuse to allow it.

I think my big flaw was how hard I campaigned against Allie. I think people read it too much like "this guy wants to idol one of us out, what a tard." Which is half-true, but I would've been happy with Allie going home too. Yve going home really sucks. She was one of my closer allies in the game, and I really could've used her vote this round. Hopefully that mistake doesn't cost me this game. That would be a DAYUM shame.

[chicken]

Brandon you need to throw in a twist that will save my ass RIGHT NOW cause i'm pretty DAYUM sure i'm going home

I mean i'm trying to convince people not to vote for me but y'know its kinda hard when NOBODY FUCKIN RESPONDS TO MY DAYUM MESSAGES

This Chicken might be fried

[chicken]

Welp, cant say I didn't see that coming. It was a good run though. I made the jury, which was a nice surprise, and I got TWO episode titles, so I pretty much fuckin dominated the confessional game. Sighhh, but once again, so close to the merge. Oh well. I'm pleased with how I played. I think the tribe swaps ended up hurting my game pretty bad, and I really should've been more tactful during the vote over at the Napaco tribe. Maybe then i'd still be in the game. It's all good though. I'll greet everyone with a big, shit-eating grin as they join me on ponderosa (which I would like a request to be renamed "The Chicken Coop"). I'm very interested to see how this plays out. Of course i'm rooting for Morgan and Bob, but they've got an uphill battle. But my track record of picking alliances that go on to succeed after I die is pretty good, so if history continues to repeat itself, they have a good shot of making it all the way.
