The Tale of Tanya Ratajkowski

[Tatiana]

Dexter just fucking exploded in the Warehouse chat, and now any doubts I had of him not being Zavi have gone out the window. Kota is in for some shit this round, and if I have my way, next round, as well. He poked the wrong bear and the claws have come out. I love it.

Meanwhile, I've been trying to get Naomi paranoid while attempting to worm my way into her good graces. She put me up before, but she's also one of the only people who reaches out to me these days, so I'd like to take advantage of that. I told her that Kota might be putting her up, and that he was being sketchy. I also told her it was weird how nobody else seemed to care enough to compete in the Veto challenge with two pawns up. I felt the urge to hit the decisive blow last night, but I don't want to push my luck just yet. 

Kota finally stopped ignoring me the other night, but instead of game, he just complained about his poor, sore back the whole time we spoke, so I couldn't influence the noms. I'm pretty satisfied with Dexter going up, though, because he's going to bring some much needed drama into the mix finally, and some of it may even upset those in the majority. Maybe. Hopefully.

FF #2

So, I'm pretty sure I'm going tonight unless I somehow manage to win HoH or Veto again. The majority of the "players" here seem to be pissing their pants at the sheer thought of making a move, and that's good gameplay . . . up until jury. From what I can tell, now's the time to start gathering floaters together on your side in order to wage war against the other top dogs. But that's too scary -- let's just vote Tatiana out instead! It's certainly disappointing, but it doesn't surprise me. I don't know, maybe there's another strategist here who actually gets on with these people, and they've gotten them to essentially become lambs being led to their slaughter. It's hard to tell from all the way down here on the bottom, though. I can only really work with what I'm told, which isn't much since nobody talks to me aside from Steffy and whoever is going out the door that week. When I inevitably go up tonight for the third or fourth time in a row, I'm not sure what my speech will be yet, but I'll be damned if I go quietly. At least try shaking shit up for the PWs or something. Hmm.

On the other hand, they say the first juror sets the tone leading up to the final vote, and that's friggen Zavi. Being the second juror wouldn't be so bad if only to be the first to watch the full wrath of Zavi in action. GG no re, Kota!

Round Nine -- Clue

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL AT KOTA GETTING BACKDOORED. Wonder what he could have done to prevent that! Holy fuck, the first half of that FF was heartbreaking, though. I literally would have won the HoH if my app didn't delay my message by a few seconds. I was so upset. Due to my mediocre relationships with people and how I hadn't heard anything about Kota being backdoored, I was pretty sure going in that  there'd be a high chance of me getting the boot. But then Gabrielle took me off of the block, and for that, I am pretty grateful. I plan on paying her back the first chance I get, even if it wasn't necessarily her who solely decided on saving me. Seeing Kota go 7-0 makes me feel like I might have been okay, though, but I'm also not Jordan. Further, a FF might not be the best time to pull off the move I've been wanting to for a while now, anyway . . . especially with Cass as the future HoH winner. 

The interesting part, I find, is actually Gabrielle saving me. Why me? We've spoken, like, three times over the course of this game. I mean, we did converse today, sure, but. I did actually tell her I'd be in her debt if she took me off, so maybe it was simply that? Could it have been my work with Naomi and Steffy? Is it pretty much that I'm no longer seen as the biggest pawn here? Or might I have actually been in danger had I stayed up? This is the first ORG where I actually feel somewhat clueless. In fact, it's a little bit like a grand version of that Clue comp we did. I have to figure shit out, and all I've got to work with is hearsay, guestimates, and my trusty tinfoil hat. But my hearsay, guesses, and tinfoil hat has gotten me to the F9 . . . must be doing something right! Right?

Post-Eviction or Something Confessional

Fae said something nice about me, so I guess I'll do one of these. I've been waiting to be added to some variety of jury group so I could interact with Zavi and Afro-Ninja, but I guess that's not happening anytime soon, so here we go.

I sure hope nobody thought that was a blindside, since I knew I was about as good as gone ever since I saw that the Veto competition was going to be dumb luck. JJ going up and then the post saying that someone would be battling Kota pretty much sealed the deal, I think. In regards to my own perceptions, anyway. 

I'm very surprised I even made it this far, to be honest. I was in an almost . . . Steve-like spot, where I just had next to nothing in common with everyone here. Y'know, as nice as I'd be to people, I was still the unpopular kid in the classroom. Everyone just wanted to talk about pop music, Adele, celebrity gossip, etc, and thats just not me at all. Can't fake that shit. The difference between Steve and I would be that I lacked a Vanessa. I tried multiple times to get one, notably with Naomi, but it just didn't work out. Steffy was the closest I had to a friend in this game, and I fear she'll be following me out the door soon enough. My game lacked a connection with someone with a lot of power, and that's most likely what ultimately got me in the end.

But I'm over it. Been over it for weeks. I have honestly never played with a group of people this dumb, and it drained the life out of me each week. There were numerous occasions where I thought they absolutely HAD to be trolls, but this semblance of positivity went away after Kota came back in and didn't attempt to cause chaos for whatever reason. On the other hand, I'm not exactly sure why I expected them to be gameplayers, considering our characters are big-titted models and shit, LOL.

Where do I think this game is headed? Well, Fae's post leads me to believe that I'm correct about an alliance of idiots controlling the even bigger idiots. If they're still not taking shots at each other by now, they either all falsely believe they're going to win in their current spot, or they simply lack the game ability to get themselves on top of shit. I'm sure they're not all morons, though, and I stand by my Derrick theory of one smart player controlling all of the Codys and Victorias. Someone needs to wake up and finally make a move, because I'll sooner quit the jury than vote for someone who just got to the end because they made an early alliance based on their love for Adele and Justin fucking Bieber, lol.

I spoke to Dion for a bit today. That guy is dry as hell. He did give me a list of who's been inactive, though, so I guess he's not all that bad. I don't really see myself working with him, since he's coming off as one of those "I don't know nothin' bout nobody" types, which is really annoying. Dion isn't even the worst I've spoken to, though! Friggen JJ is like a paranoid brick wall. I asked him today where he was from, and he goes Northeast. Dafuq is that? Northeast of what? Northeast USA? Northeast on a globe? Northeast from the nearest Taco Bell? Does this guy think I'm going to come eat him if he gives me his state? Holy Christ. 

It's been two days, and I already dislike everyone I've spoken to so far. They're boring as hell, and super sketchy. I heard there are a lot of Europeans playing this season, so perhaps I'll try talking to them tonight. Honestly, they can't be much worse than the Americans I've met so far . . . 

just wannt say this is bc i'm like 5 okay fae told me not to say my real aGE
