Episode 5

[Jeff Probst]

This is where you will post for Episode 5 : Confessionals, Chats, and Pre-Votes.

[Tina]

Goodbye Wendy, im glad it was you and not me.  Thank you for your kind departing words.


Get back to camp and man is it nice to only have to find 80 food points and 8 lbs of water.. and only need 2 people to maintain the shelter.  Tribal work was great.


Get to the reward challenge and theres of course a temptation.. take a box for yourself or go for the reward for the tribe.. the rice.  I talked to my tribe and tried to play dumb like "what do you guys need me to do" and of course Bob is the first one to tell me to go for the tribal reward and not for the individual mystery prizes.. so I did it.  I decided to be a tribe player and go for the rice.. do the most posts and not get anything in return.  Oh my goodness Tina you are such a saint.

IMAGINE MY SURPRISE when at the end of the challenge Jeff tells me that there is indeed a tribe switch and since I got the rice I get to choose which tribe to be on.  And imagine my joy when I see there are two old Gorgora on one tribe and all old Chencha on the other tribe.. and wherever I go, Bob goes to the other.  Now, I ain't stupid.  Im not trying to sacrifice myself so Bob can stay with Cass and Artis and I go home.. id like to at least make jury.  And to do that I need whatever tools I can get.. so i sent bob off to the Chencha tribe and :-\ pretty much sealed his fate.  Sorry Bob.. but lets be real you were trying to be the ringleader and I didn't appreciate it.. time for Tina to take over.  step aside bitches.


New Gorgora is still getting to know each other.  I've had one chat with Morgan and she actualy seems nice.. tried to clear the air with her about some comments during challenge time in challenge threads and we are both on the same page.  She claims she would like possibly work with our new tribe in a merge situation if it comes down to that but honestly i dont know how much im believing that.  I wasnt born yesterday.  Hopefully somehow someway Bob can survive and the 4 of us can be reunited at merge.  At the very least hopefully I Can make it to merge and the inner workings of Chencha will need me to take each other out.  We'll see.

Tina Wesson (08:34:50): Hey Morgan hows it going
Morgan McLeod (08:35:16):
Hi Tina! It's going well with me, thanks. How about you?
Tina Wesson (08:35:43): Pretty good. Excited about the swap.. hopefully our luck turns around haha
Tina Wesson (08:36:14): About to give this challenge a go I think
Morgan McLeod (08:36:29):
I hope so too! I'm determined to keep winning no matter what.
Tina Wesson (08:36:36): Making sure that I turned off autocorrect on this damn mac haha
Morgan McLeod (08:36:48):
Ugh, yeah. That's so annoying.
Tina Wesson (08:36:51): for real
Tina Wesson (08:36:53): its like
Tina Wesson (08:36:59): ive never meant to say ducking in my entire life.
Tina Wesson (08:37:10): why in the world would so many people want to use that word.. come on now apple
Morgan McLeod (08:37:30):
I hate how Apple is trying to censor me! If I wanna say fucking, let me fucking say fucking!
Morgan McLeod (08:37:31):

Tina Wesson (08:37:37): YAAAAASSSSS
Morgan McLeod (08:38:04):
I think I'm gonna do it in like a half hour or so to get it out of the way.
Morgan McLeod (08:38:23):
I hope you slay your rounds! <3
Tina Wesson (08:38:27): I have to work tonight blah. 2:30-10:30 est so that live challenge was no bueno
Tina Wesson (08:38:39): thank you!! i hope you do too i'd like to finally take a tc off haha
Morgan McLeod (08:38:46):
Yeah, I don't know how anyone could attend a live challenge on a Friday night.
Morgan McLeod (08:39:29):
And I bet! I'm not trying to go to Tribal Council anytime soon.
Tina Wesson (08:40:18): I didnt expect everything to be so live. It seems like most challenges are and every TC is and man... lol its hard to keep up
Morgan McLeod (08:40:47):
The Tribal Councils are too? Ugh, that's so frustrating.
Tina Wesson (08:40:55): Yeah
Tina Wesson (08:41:08): i think our last one was live at 10:30est wednesday
Tina Wesson (08:41:30): and we had 5 people but only 3 showed up.. i couldnt be here and neither could wendy
Morgan McLeod (08:41:34):
I hope when I finally have to attend one, I can at least show up for it.
Tina Wesson (08:42:05): yeah its better to be around in case theres any last minute scrambling but luckily for us the first 3 boots were all fairly easy
Morgan McLeod (08:43:08):
Exactly, I'm not trying to get blindsided at the last minute.
Morgan McLeod (08:43:27):
I was pretty much able to correctly predict your first three boots, so I can see how it would have been easy.
Tina Wesson (08:43:41): LOL exactly it wasnt exactly too hard
Tina Wesson (08:43:51): the last one was a little tougher but still not very hard tbh
Morgan McLeod (08:44:15):
If our tribe had lost, Ethan obviously would have been a very easy first boot for us.
Tina Wesson (08:44:34): yeah.. when was the last time he was even on the board?
Morgan McLeod (08:44:46):
I think like at least three days ago.
Tina Wesson (08:45:03): Good lord. Yeah.. at least theres one matchup we know we're winning haha
Morgan McLeod (08:45:14):
Exactly! I'm pleased about that.
Tina Wesson (08:45:37): Erinn seems like shes pretty good at challenges so im thinking it wont be easy to beat her
Morgan McLeod (08:46:29):
I'm a pretty fast typer. I have a typing speed of 105 wpm and we used to play typing challenges where we had to be the quickest to type words/sentences backwards and I always did well in them, so I'm pretty optimistic about my performance.
Morgan McLeod (08:46:34):
Alina is a tough competitor, though.
Tina Wesson (08:47:06): omg haha nice. im glad you're on my tribe for this challenge then LOL
Tina Wesson (08:47:25): I think im only up to like.. 80ish wpm and make my fair share of typos so we'll see
Morgan McLeod (08:47:53):
As long as you give it your all, I'm sure you'll do fine.
Morgan McLeod (08:48:31):
To be honest, I was concerned that you, Artis and Cassandra might throw it to spare Bob and take the 3-3 risk to try and take me out.
Tina Wesson (08:48:45): Hell to the no
Tina Wesson (08:48:56): I aint trying to put myself in a purple rock situation to spare him
Tina Wesson (08:49:25): Lets be real.. if tribal lines hold up deep into the game we're pretty much screwed any ways so.. if i can make it to merge and jury in a worst case scenario id like to
Tina Wesson (08:50:08): Plus we're still in tribal stages and you are obvi a strong competitor so i wouldnt want to target you anyways
Morgan McLeod (08:50:19):
I'm definitely keeping an open mind about things with this switch. If we all manage to work well together and are able to win all of the challenges leading up to the merge, I'm more than willing to stick with this group in the merge.
Tina Wesson (08:52:15): Yeah, I also wanted to come to you and just say like.. I hope there no bad blood between us at all.. I know that ive been sarcastic in some of the challenge threads but its all really just for fun. I know what its like to be on the winning side of a tribe and to be on the losing side, and any taunting or comments in the challenge thread were just for the fun of the game and to make good tv
Morgan McLeod (08:53:11):
No, there's definitely no bad between us or even with Bob. I'm just naturally a competitive person and also playing it up a bit for the episodes.
Tina Wesson (08:54:14): Exactly, same here.
Morgan McLeod (08:55:16):
Glad we're on the same page!
