Episode 4

This is where you will post for Episode 4 : Confessionals, Chats, and Pre-Votes.

We finally got a win! We had to settle these giant jugs on top of our heads and try to knock the opponent's jugs to the ground. As soon as the challenge started, it was absolute chaos. The people on my tribe were just going crazy and doing the best they could to smack those green jugs to the ground. I took a little time to get the hang of it, but once I got the jug positioned nicely on top of my head, I crept over to the last remaining girl and just SLAPPED it to the ground. It felt amazing to win, and hopefully we can use this momentum heading into the immunity challenge tomorrow.

[Artis]

I just can't believe it. We lost our forth immunity challenge in a row... We had a nice lead right out of the gate, but then Cassandra messed us up and put us behind a rock which took a long time to get out of. Tina put in a good effort with the maze, but it just wasn't enough. This constant losing streak is just so devastating, I don't know how to put it into words. I don't think I'll even make it to the end because of how the swap and merge might work...

[Artis]

Since my alliance with Bob and Tina is still intact, we're down to the two other people in our tribe for who is going home tonight; Cassandra and Wendy. There are a lot of pros and cons to getting rid/keeping either of them, which makes this vote even harder than the last one.

We just pulled Wendy into our alliance, and she's a sweetheart who helps out around camp. However, I haven't really seen her step up in any of the challenges. This last one Tina did all the work on the maze.

Then there's Cass, who is easily the most likable person on the tribe and just an amazing person. She barely helps out around camp, but she also isn't too bad at challenges (even though she messed up big time this challenge.)

It's going to be an extremely difficult vote, and I honestly don't know who I'm going to go for.

[Artis]

There's this damn dove that hangs out around our camp, and every once in a while it gets close enough that we might be able to catch it, but it flies away just in time. It's almost like this little thing is taunting us! And it just occurred to me that this dove is a perfect metaphor for the immunity challenges. We get visions of how delicious and juicy this thing is going to be if we catch it, but every time we get a little bit close, it races away in the sunset.

8:24 PM
Tina Wesson's iconTina Wesson
i feel like our best chance at winning a challenge is if we keep cass. but we just made this deal with wendy last round and that makes me feel like shit. but she is going to be 6 hours ahead we know theres no way she can make every challenge
Artis Silvester's icon
That is exactly what I was thinking
8:25 PM
Tina Wesson's iconTina Wesson
ugh.
8:32 PM
Artis Silvester's icon

7:54 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
What are you thinking?
Bob's iconBob
Well, our two options are 1) Vote Cass Out or 2) Break our deal we just made with Wendy
7:55 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
I honestly don't know which one
Bob's iconBob
Exactly
Artis Silvester's icon
I don't want to vote either of them off
Bob's iconBob
Me either
7:57 PM
Bob's iconBob
Everything keeps running through my head on how I fucked this up....posting wrong, going slow on directions
I'm just getting depressed
7:58 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
It was mine and Cassandra's fault.
Bob's iconBob
I know I messed up a couple of times too
Artis Silvester's icon
She messed up BIG time by missing 55, and I slipped up a couple times
8:00 PM
Bob's iconBob
I love Cass, but it just seems like maybe its her time to go? I dunno...this vote is so tough
8:02 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
I know. I love her too, but she seems like she's next on the chopping block
on the other hand, I think she's better at challenges than Wendy...
I just don't know
Bob's iconBob
Exactly
It's such a struggle right now
8:11 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
I know

[Artis]

8:09 PM
Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo

Artis Silvester's icon

Cassandra's iconCassandra

Artis Silvester's icon
I can't believe it
why does this keep happening?
Cassandra's iconCassandra
You did so well...You posted so quickly
But yeah it sucks =/
8:06 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Well I hate to ask but do you have any idea what to do for the vote? =/
Artis Silvester's icon
I really don't. It'll probably be Wendy though.
8:07 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
That's unfortunately who I was leaning toward as well
Artis Silvester's icon
I just haven't seen her do good in any challenges.
She's a sweetheart, but...
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Yeah. She literally did nothing in this last one lol.
And also the timezone thing makes it sort of tough to talk to her sometimes
8:35 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Tina feels the same way

Hey
Artis Silvester's icon
Hi Bob. How are you?
Bob's iconBob
I'm good, just got home from work
1:44 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
There's a tornado warning in my city
people are going crazy on the radio
Bob's iconBob
Yikes, be careful
So from what I hear, Cass is deffo voting Wendy, and I think Tina's gonna vote Wendy as well because of her randomness and the time zone thing.
1:46 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Yeah, I've heard that too.
Are you going to go Wendy?
Bob's iconBob
Yeah, I don't see a good thing going against Tina and Cass and alienating myself when I agree with their points.
1:48 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Poor Wendy...
But yeah, I agree.
Bob's iconBob
I know...I hate this situation we're in.
Artis Silvester's icon
I really thought we were going to win immunity.
Bob's iconBob
Me too
It was so close
1:49 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
We're bound to get it one time.
Bob's iconBob
Hopefully...I'm tired of having to make decisions like this.
1:53 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Me too.
1:58 PM
Bob's iconBob
Well, we can just hope and look toward the future
Artis Silvester's icon
That's all we can do.

[Artis]

5:00 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Hey!
Artis Silvester's icon
Hey Cass. How are you?
5:03 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Not bad! Had a tiring day at work but now eating cookies lol
I almost fell asleep but I'm going to force myself to not nap lol
Artis Silvester's icon
Always a good way to end the day.
Trying not to nap is hard. I usually succumb.
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Ugh yeah and I made the brilliant decision to climb into bed after work
5:04 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
I was dozing off but I know if I nap then I won't go to sleep on time tonight
5:05 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Exactly!
Cassandra's iconCassandra
How was your day??
Artis Silvester's icon
There was a tornado warning!
People were spooked. But everything was okay.
5:06 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Oh my gosh!!!
Glad everything is okay
Did you have to like go in the basement?
Artis Silvester's icon
Yeah
5:07 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
oh gosh, for how long?
Artis Silvester's icon
Not too long. Luckily it wasn't really near our neighborhood and all we got was a bunch of hail.
5:08 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
But there has never been a tornado inside the city before, so it was interesting.
5:10 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Yeah, sounds like it. Well glad everything is okay and that it wasn't near you. Hail sucks though lol
Artis Silvester's icon
Yesss,
5:12 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
What are you doing for the rest of the day?
Artis Silvester's icon
Oh, not too much. Waiting for Big Brother and then tc after ( ) I've been thinking about starting a new book but I don't know what
5:15 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Oh that's a good idea! I wish I had a suggestion but I am not really a huge reader haha
Artis Silvester's icon
me neither
5:16 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
I am obsessed with this youtuber named Joey Graceffa
and he wrote a book not too long ago which I am reading
But I feel like i have a specific interest in that haha
5:22 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
HA! I remember him from TAR
5:26 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra
Yes!!!!!! Lol I love him haha
Artis Silvester's icon

5:28 PM
Cassandra's iconCassandra

Artis Silvester's icon
It was nice chatting with you

[Artis]

6:49 PM
Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo
hey
6:52 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
hi

Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo
I am the vote tonight, right?
6:54 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
Some people are saying your name, but I don't know for sure.
No one has talked to you?
Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo
I'm trying to talk but no one is actually saying a name and it made me think I was the vote
6:56 PM
Artis Silvester's icon
If you go home tonight, I'm really sorry.
6:59 PM
Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo
I understand it's part of the game... it just sucks to leave this early
Artis Silvester's icon
I know

[Artis]

Wendy came up to me just before we were about to leave for tribal and asked if she was the vote tonight, and I tried so hard to reassure her and make her feel better, but it was so hard to lie to her face. She really deserves to stay here, we all do, and I don't want anymore of us to go home. It just sucks.

[Artis]

7:03 PM
Wendy LoLo's iconWendy LoLo
