wow dry

I'm not gonna lie, I was expecting BIG THINGS from this God forsaken gourd. Like maybe an idol, or at least some kind of CLUE to the idol... and instead there's just this scrap of paper TAUNTING me. WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS, SURVIVOR GODS?

[Jeff Probst]

What do you plan on doing with this?

[Shirin]

I already told Alina the truth about my gourd, because she's my favourite. I'm considering just doing the same with everyone else. If idol paranoia starts to foster, then they might try to blindside me out of fear of something that doesn't exist.

SHIRIN, after this round, you will be down to seven players. Is it still a numbers game?

Survivor is almost always a numbers game in the end. Getting numbers to vote with you, getting numbers to save yourself, getting numbers on the jury to vote for you at the end. So, yes, I'd say it's still a numbers game, but the dynamic may shift sooner rather than later.

SHIRIN, what has been the hardest thing for you in the game so far?

I started off very shakily and it's been difficult for me to recover from that, but now I've learned to embrace my floaty goat status and am just taking each day as it comes. It's a good time.

TC bootlist
1. Tina
2. Cassandra
3. Morgan
4. Colby
5. Brendan
6. Alina

(left Erinn off because she's immune ofc)

[Jeff Probst]

For future reference, remember that people who have immunity could give up their immunity, so still include them in the bootlist. Otherwise it will make your bootlist invalid!
