The Diary of One, Ace Gordon

[Ace Gordon]

Ted Rogers (11:31:04 PM): Talk to Judd yet?
Ace Gordon (11:31:10 PM): naw
Ace Gordon (11:31:17 PM): I just got home an hour or two ago
Ted Rogers (11:31:26 PM): He is paranoid bout the vote
Ace Gordon (11:31:50 PM): well I can see why
Ted Rogers (11:31:52 PM): Wants us to split it between Wanda and Kourt 2-2-2
Ace Gordon (11:32:00 PM): why?
Ted Rogers (11:32:06 PM): Cause he scared I idol

...I'm thinking very devious thoughts right now.

Course if I were to use this extremely stupid plan to vote out Judd, it would probably kill any trust I have with the favorites and would make it very obvious I'm playing both sides. Unless I can come up with a really, really good reason to take him out, I think I have to go along with the Wanda vote.

I'm getting concerned that the favorites may be the new Outcasts in a way. I don't want them getting too powerful. I know I have a good bond with Ted and Jay... but I don't know how they are with Bob and Judd. Plus, with Bob having an idol, that makes me feel very nervous about my position.

I am absolutely flabbergasted right now.

Kourtney wants Wanda gone. I even told her to put Judd on the top of her list, she argued with me to send Wanda home.

.....what?!

I serously don't get it. But I think this pretty much kills any chance at sending Judd out of here. My plan was to just tell Kourtney to do the obvious and vote Judd and "I'll see what I can do tomorrow" without revealing anything.

I'm not going to fight it cause I can't tell Kourt about Judd... mostly cause that isn't a final plan by any stretch, it's just me pondering options. Kourt takes options literally and I don't want her spouting about me thinking of taking Judd out.

Makes me wonder what the hell is going through Kourtney's head right now. I mean... she's not this bad a player is she? Is she really going to send one of her closest allies home over a guy she has ZERO connection with? Something has to be going on with her and someone else... I just can't place why she'd want to do this. It makes no sense.

Oh well. I'll sort through these shenanigans tomorrow.

Forgot to mention... Kourtney expressed concern with me that she's being used to take out Coach.

While this is somewhat true, she obviously can't think this. With her cutting Wanda off, presumably, for having a deal with Kim... that could be trouble for me later down the road. She has shown to be a very cold player despite how hard she tries to hide it. She's screwed over so many people who would have been loyal for rather silly reasons. And while I myself am also a cold player, I don't exactly want one aligned with me.

I'm trying to whisper sweet nothings into her ear, that I'm with her 100% and all that bullshit. I even told her that she got the pick the target this week... she picked Wanda, so that makes it pretty easy for me. Hopefully she feels safe with me. With Wanda leaving and my growing concern over the Favorite's picking me off down the road, I may need Kourtney here for awhile.

[Ace Gordon]

Wanda wants Kourtney out. I give up.

Wanda's gone, not going to do anything. I almost hinted to Jay or Ted that taking out Judd might be an option, but everyone is so big on "GWAD POWER!" to get to the final five. Well, I'm not. That's dumb.

If there's another challenge, we need to win it. Dawg using his idol and cutting the Outcasts down to four would really make things interesting.

[Ace Gordon]

Wanda campaigns for Kourtney to leave and then votes Judd out. What?

I mean I guess I shouldn't be surprised over the stupidity as of late, but this is just getting silly now.

Good news is... unanimous vote going into the merge. Hooray. Bad news... everyone wants to Pagong the Outcasts. Boo.

We'll see how the dice rolls. I want to see what's coming next before I make any decisions.

Here's a little advice babes: when blindsiding do not tell the person repeatedly "idk who i am voting go talk to people idk" bc like.. lol no. <3

...I don't think you understand what a blindside is.

[Ace Gordon]

Apparently her post is about Jay. Jay IMed earlier going "Hey I told Wanda I was voting Judd, it's a lie though".

Why? Why would you do that? What the fuck is the point in doing that when both of us know there is no idol and there is nothing she can do?

Oh well. I'm not complaining. But if our British friend continues playing like this, I definitely know who I want in the Final 3 with me if we get there.

Oh yes, final 3. Think that's pretty much confirmed with a 10-person Jury. I approve. I think I can beat anyone in the end so that just improves my shot even more. I'm a very humble guy.

[Ace Gordon]

Nice swerve you got there

I posted UGH to everyone that was on (that I talk to regularly anyway), but deep down inside... this a great thing. This swap may be the perfect excuse to cut someone I have no connection with. Depends on how the stars align I suppose. The absolute worse scenario is me and Dawg swapping tribes. And if things go that awry, there's two idols in play from people I'm on good terms with.

[Ace Gordon]

I suspect Judd is trashing me in his confessional about how terrible of a conversationalist I am right now.

Anyway, I don't like threads going over 10 pages. So I'm going to start a new thread for this shit tomorrow to kick off the official merge game talk and strategies. Hooray!
