And two people are being booted at once, holy fucking shit. Well I mean good news is it kind of sucks less to be the merge boot if you're sharing the position with someone else, lmao.
It's also nice we get 24 hours of meeting everyone before we have to do the challenge, it's a bit more breathing room.
Also damn it really sucks Leon was booted. I guess it is a bit better than Carlos going since Joe was worried about him but I thought we could make something work with the garden chat and stuff. Oh well.

Mia's Marvelous Musings:
Hello, I just want to say congratulations on making merge! This is a huge accomplishment in survivor and I don't want to make light of the fact that you are here, in the top half of this game. I also want to take a moment to thank you for playing this game, I truly cannot express how much it means to me. Thank you thank you thank you.
I'll keep it light on the questions:
1. What are your initial thoughts on Tribe Miranda?
2. What is something positive you are doing for yourself to celebrate your achievement of making it here?

Awww thank you!!
1) I came here a few hours late so I don't have great impressions of everyone yet. It was nice to reconnect with Carlos at least and I shared the most PMs during this merge because I wanted to keep him in the loop of everything, especially since he's probably one of the only allies I have left.
2) I dunno I guess I'll make myself more cookies, lmao. But probably tomorrow since it's getting pretty late for me.

I was thinking the mods gave us that 24 hour leeway just to be nice but nope apparently it was just from Leon playing his item or whatever, as I've just realizing from talking to Katherine. I always end up missing the little details lmao.

Miraculously I managed to catch up with PMs with everyone but Matt/Dog, and also Elza who didn't exactly give me a warm welcome back, lol. She didn't even try to engage, she was just like "funny we should meet again" and it's like I don't even know what to say to that.
I'm sure you're all wondering how I'm viewing everyone, but tough luck because I don't know either, lmao. Even with this extended deadline it's going to be hard to get anything going with so many damn people. Well on the bright side if I do survive this then I'll only have 10 other people to deal with after all of this. Progress!

Also me and Carlos might've just started an F2, which is definitely not what I expected to ever happen when I first met him. I don't know how I develop this habit of hating people initially and then later they become like my best ally, lmao. It's absurd how often this happens to me.

I hope I'm not being too open with people lol but I think at this point I need to work hard to gain allies so I'd rather spill too much and have the potential of it harming my game than being secretive to the point of guaranteeing my game is doomed. I've mostly just been talking about the Alice boot though so nothing too revealing, but it does suck to have to revisit that because basically nothing went right there.
Also I was expecting Elza to be way more bitter to the point where she almost seemed offended I apologized, lol. I guess it just felt right to say sorry anyhow and her response makes me feel relieved that that bridge isn't totally burned there.

This challenge seems weird. I'm not a fan of challenges that require outside resources and at first glace I'm not sure what it's testing. To see who can Google the fastest? I'm not sure.

Also man am I already tired out from PMing. It sucks to leave a lot of people on leave but I just can't keep up with everyone. Also I'm going to make sure to sleep early this time and get a decent sleep.

>Waking up to 8 new PMs
Ugggggh it never ends. I might as well get the challenge out of the way now because I don't feel confident in my ability to do well and I don't think there's that many people around right now.

Eh, the challenge wasn't as hard as I thought, although I'm not sure #10 was right. Regardless I doubt it was fast enough but oh well.

According to Carlos, Elza is looking to target Katherine to the point where that was the first thing she said to Carlos. Whether Katherine will *actually* be the vote from the Dimis is another question entirely because we all know what happened last time, lmao. Although if Matt tries to be pushy again that's probably not going to go well for him because I can tell she's a bit peeved from Matt being so stubborn the first time around. Also Carlos seems way too worried about me going out and immediately spilling what he told me to everyone else, lmao. Though to be fair it does sound like this is his first time making merge so I kind of get that he doesn't want his game to blow up right away.

I would like to be in a group with you/Carlos/Joe but I am not really sure if that's possible? It seems like Carlos also wants to work with Matt/Dog maybe more so than me and then it suddenly becomes Dimi + Moreau and then outsiders (like me, you, Billie, Steve.........). ?? That would be weird if Carlos wanted to work with Matt/Dog, lol. Also Excella at least seems the most open of the Dimis to work again because she suggested we get together with Matt/Dog, but that's going to depend on them and I'm thinking their answer is a definite "no", lol. But I'm definitely not going to turn down anything at this moment because who the fuck knows what's going to go down when TC actually hits.

Wowz I almost caught up with everyone again, yaaay!
Also according to Katherine there's this idea going around to make a coalition of 9, split the vote 5-4-4 and then vote their way on a revote. She's worried we're not apart of it and considering this is my first time hearing about this I feel she's right on that part lol. I dunno what I can even do but even if I do get into this elusive group (which is very doubtful) I dunno if I want to be apart of it because it sounds boring af.

Matt has already gone to bat for Katherine too. I've seen a few proposals for voting blocks and Matt usually includes Katherine in them. Unless one of them wins immunity I think Elza and Katherine will go for each other. I did suggest to Matt that 9-10 people are needed to ensure everyone's safety so he's probably thinking about it. Oh so I guess this is Carlos's idea lol.
