Lol, that last round was another vicious blindside. Sierra said she saw it coming, but I really don't think she did. Either way, Fabio/Reynold were definitely shocked. The vote was 4-3, Andrea seemed like the easy target as the last remaining original Huaiyu, but RC told me/Todd that Reynold was planning on taking Sierra to the end, so we decided to vote with Andrea to take out Sierra, without telling Fabio/Reynold. I think this was a good move for me, I definitely stand by it. I probably could've beaten Sierra at the end, but I don't think it's a smart game to play with the intention to go to the end with someone.
Reynold pretended to be okay with what happened, he started bashing Sierra and said he's glad she's finally gone, I know deep down inside he's pissed, cause the jury is angry at him and he's unsure if he can beat anyone else. I just said Sierra was gunning for RC, which is half true anyway. I do feel my chances of getting to the end have improved with Sierra out the way. Andrea/Fabio are still in the game, those two have no blood on their hands, so I really think despite Reynold probably being pissed that we lied to him last round, he'll still be on board to take those two out next.
Fabio went to the Temple, due to winning immunity last round. It turns out the good fortune was getting four guesses every day at the Hidden Immunity Idol, the bad fortune being that everyone else in the game does too. That makes me feel confident that it hasn't been found yet to the point. I just don't know what to make of the clue anymore, I'm really hoping Andrea/Fabio don't find it though, cause I feel I could be a top candidate to get idolled out. The Temple is now finished, which I'm okay with. Any good fortune was usually negated with the bad fortune that came with it.
Reynold ended up winning individual immunity. I'm glad it wasn't Andrea/Fabio, that's for sure. I've decided to use the Lotus on myself this round, to guarantee myself final five. This means I can't vote nor receive votes. It's the last round I can use it anyway. There's still an idol out there, if we pile the votes on one of Andrea/Fabio, I could get idolled out, for all I know. There are now four guesses each day for the idol after all, which only adds to my paranoia. If I didn't use the Lotus, we could split the votes on Andrea/Fabio, maybe my alliance is annoyed at me being selfish.
But they seem supportive, giving up immunity this late in the game, with an idol out there, would be extremely risky. I'm not even sure that if we split the vote, Reynold wouldn't flip to take me out 3-2-1. I did lie to him last round after all, and I know from RC that he doesn't want to go to the end with me. Even if he did that, Reynold/RC/Todd would still have the numbers to take out Andrea/Fabio and go to the end together. Todd wanted me to use the Lotus on Reynold, so me/him/RC had 3-2 numbers over Andrea/Fabio. I just said Reynold wouldn't flip to the two biggest end game threats at this point.
Todd said RC would be idolled out before me, but I'm not sure if that's the case. She's been getting a lot of hate by the jurors on their way out, namely Brandon and Sierra, I think everyone sees it and probably wants to go to the end with her. RC is definitely worried she could be leaving this round though. She said Reynold was being shady, pretending to Andrea that he wanted to vote RC out. I'd feel guilty as hell if RC walks out the door, because I chose to play the Lotus on myself, but I think the chances of Reynold taking out RC are pretty minimal.
Another reason why I wanted to use the Lotus on myself, is that whoever leaves, can't be bitter at me, cause I didn't vote them out! Jurors tend to prefer to vote for finalists who had no hand in their elimination, so that could certainly help me get an extra vote at the end, or be the deciding factor if they can't make their mind up between myself and the other finalists. It's looking like Andrea will be the boot, her fairytale of being the last remaining Huaiyu will finally come to an end. Clearly she'll get all the votes if she makes the finale, we can't let that happen.
I feel Fabio is just as much of an end game threat, he's got very little blood on his hand and I know the jury would love to award him the win. Plus I feel he's more likely to find the idol and is probably better at challenges too. It was always clear to me that whoever stayed this round between Andrea/Fabio, would leave the next round. I'm just hoping that we can stop Fabio from winning immunity at final five, he doesn't have the idol, and we can take him out. This round is pretty much out of my hands, seeing as I don't have a vote, but I really feel this is the end for Andrea.
