Not sure what the hold up. An endurance challenge where you have one chance to start isn't really a good challenge to give extensions for. Especially not extensions that exceed an hour or two like you know... 24.

So Chand and Dreamz went home which kind of sucked. They were both guys who I trusted at the beginning of the game but had slowly grown across as the game progressed. At this point I was really tight with the Hahajima tribe which was me, Alexis, Brianna, Kelly, and Hatch. I wanted us to go to the finals and the only thing standing in our way was the fact that the ChiChijima tribe had 6 members which gave them the majority. This really scared me because I knew there was a really good chance that Tom B would want me out right when we merged because there is still some bad blood between us.
To no ones surprise the tribes merge and the immunity is endurance. I knew I needed to win so I dominated it and after 6 hours of blood, sweat and tears won the necklace for myself. The main priority for me was winning immunity but now that I had it it was one less person that we had to wonder if they were getting votes. The reason that this was important was that Brianna has the idol and we were hoping to play the idol on someone to get the numbers tied. The orginal thought was to take out Brandon because he is the most annoying.
On that note I'll give my thoughts on everyone in the merge.
Alexis: Sweet girl. I feel like me and her are really close on a personal level. She is probably the one I trust the most outside of Hatch and Kelly. I do think she is under Brianna's wing so I got to watch out for her later on in the round.
Brandon: He is a nice guy. But he is one of the weirdest and most delusional people i've ever met. We had a 5 minute conversation about how I could no longer see tribal council because it was invisible? Who talks about that stuff. Not many people like him because he spreads a lot of shit so I wouldn't want to be in her position.
Brianna: We are a dynamic duo. Unfortunately I think she'll try to cut me later down in the road (before final 5) because we seem like we are both greedy and cutthroat players. I really enjoy talking to her and if I could trust her more would want to take her to the end with me just for the sake of a Duo.
Fairplay: Doesn't deserve to be here. Has honestly done nothing but pick his ass. He is more worthless than Sierra. Is the love child of Sierra and an inatimate object. Sorry but the only person this dude deserved to beat in the ENTIRE cast is Penner... and that is questionable. With that being said I had an alliance with him so who knows.
Matty: Another nice guy. I probably like him the most of any of Tom B's goons. The issue with him is Brianna told me that he hates me. Which kind of sucks because I may need him later on. If my plan works he won't last long and his double vote ended up killing him.
Monica: She is really dull to talk to. Thinks she's good at challenges but actually sucks. Thinks she's likable adn good at strategy when she's just a pawn. Unfortunately she's not my pawn and doesn't like the girls Im aligned with very much.
Big Tom: My best friend! I don't hate the guy and if for some reasons things go South I may consider voting with him. As far as I know he's played a solid game and could be in a really good spot to win. Unfortunately though he has a huge target on his back and we'll see if he can handle it. If his group is as loyal as he thinks than it could be difficult.
Tom W: We talked about video games haven't really ever talked strategy. I always considered him as Big Tom's right hand man since he sold me out to Big Tom way back in Round 3. Since them its kind of like talking to a slower version of the same person.
So back to the round after Tribal everyone was really scattered. Of course I knew it wasn't going to be like this when the votes were read. It would be 6-5. The issue was who the 6 would be. We tried to flip people such as Matty, Monica, Fairplay and Brandon but no one would really budge. I talked to Brianna and we decided that our best bet was trying to get them to split it because if we idoled out Tom B or Brandon than matty's double vote could just be used to pick us off one by one.
Than a lightbulb appeared above my head. If we vote off Matty than his double vote would be gone and next round it would be 5-5 and a tiebreaker challenge would be the gamechanging moment. The plan was sent in motion and everyone agreed. We told the other side that we were voting Fairplay. In order to make sure the plan worked we had to find out who they were voting. Brandon said he wanted Kelly out. I went along with this to try to get them to break up the vote (which was a grasp at straws but a slight possibility none the less). I knew that Tom W hadn't been on and also that he wouldn't vote for Kelly. Knowing this I knew that Kelly wasn't going home so I told Brianna to use the idol on Hatch.
I was pretty going into the vote that Matty and his double vote were going home. If this works that the final 5 deal has secured a spot in the Final 5.
To Be Continued Next Round...

Shits about to get crazy. I might be getting a thank you card from Tom B for helping him get the win!
