Episode #4 Confessionals

[christine]

Wow! This has been a really amazing round so far. I feel more at ease with Drew and Shilpa, and I feel like they're pretty true to the alliance we formed with the three of us. I do however have some reservations about Shilpa and her relationship with Craig and Rachelle. I  feel like Drew is most loyal to me, and I think it would be smart for him to be.

I truly do think people are underestimating my game. I have been social enough with everyone, but not to the extent where I'm everyone's BFF like Rachelle, Shilpa, Drew, and Craig. But I've also been key in forming a powerhouse alliance. Drew and Shilpa both have impressive challenge records so far.

Also, we began this round by securing an alliance with Ash. I think he'll be a pretty loyal ally as I don't think he has anywhere else to really turn. Ash first propositioned an alliance to myself, and we have since added Shilpa and Drew, which is interesting in it's own right. Drew and I made sure to tell Shilpa of the alliance as it was being formed to ensure to her that our alliance of 3 is the core alliance.

I've gone from feeling completely out of the loop and in danger to feeling a little bit powerful in the game. But with power comes great responsibility... or something like that. Drew noted that having too much power makes us the clear target and I completely agree, so I think this is enough power for now.

Drew Anthony (23:43:49): they did!
Christine Brecht (23:43:51): The Killers? yeah!
Shilpa Shetty (23:46:10): what else did they singg
Shilpa Shetty (23:46:46): i actually don't know any of their other songs jk
Drew Anthony (23:46:58): somebody told me
Drew Anthony (23:47:05): that you had a girlfriend
Drew Anthony (23:47:08): who looked like a boyfriend
Drew Anthony (23:47:14): that i had in february of last year
Christine Brecht (23:47:45): Glamorous Indie Rock & Roll
Christine Brecht (23:47:52): (that one wasn't as popular)
Christine Brecht (23:48:23): When You Were Young... I used to play that one Guitar Hero I think
Drew Anthony (23:48:38): yessss, loved that song on that game
Shilpa Shetty (23:48:56): oh
Shilpa Shetty (23:48:58): THATs the one
Shilpa Shetty (23:49:02): it was definitely from guitar hero lol
Christine Brecht (23:49:19): it was so long ago, I couldn't remember if that's the one it was
Ash Harrison (23:56:29): LOVE THE NAME
Drew Anthony (23:56:37): which one? lol
Ash Harrison (23:56:44): The Killers
Christine Brecht (23:56:56): hah! yeah, it's a pretty good name
Shilpa Shetty (23:57:00): it's great!
Drew Anthony (23:57:06): then i can remove the ?
Drew Anthony (23:57:07): lol
Wednesday, February 25, 2015
Christine Brecht (23:58:04): I think it's safe to say that we're now The Killers. lol
Drew Anthony (23:59:38): So, Captain Ash, as our first leader of the Killers this week, do we have a target objective?
Ash Harrison (23:59:56): Oh god
Thursday, February 26, 2015
Drew Anthony (00:00:35): God would be a tough opponent to take out
Christine Brecht (00:00:54): might I suggest Jesus... I heard they're pretty tight
Drew Anthony (00:01:27): nominate them together
Drew Anthony (00:01:32): practically the same person
Ash Harrison (00:01:40): Haha honestly I’m thinking a combo of Ivette/Dan/Monet
Ash Harrison (00:01:46): Just to keep with the status quo
Shilpa Shetty (00:02:44): yeah i mean that definitely wouldn't rock the boat
Drew Anthony (00:03:02): i think if you want the least waves, dan/monet is your best bet.... something about ivette makes me think she's a little more of a wild card, and might have a feisty side
Christine Brecht (00:03:04): yeah, I think that's a safe bet
Drew Anthony (00:03:15): but if your goal is to take out someone a little stronger, then maybe her, idk
Shilpa Shetty (00:03:31): we also have to see what mvp does
Christine Brecht (00:03:38): yup, true
Christine Brecht (00:03:50): that just ended right? so we should have an MVP soon
Ash Harrison (00:04:16): Ya I’m going to wait and see I want to try and talk to the the three of them
Shilpa Shetty (00:05:47): yeah totally makes sense
Christine Brecht (00:06:48): I think that's a good call
Christine Brecht (00:06:54): sorry, falling asleep at the computer
Drew Anthony (00:07:00): i am getting sleepy too
Drew Anthony (00:07:08): was waiting for that mvp notification, but nothing yet, lol
Shilpa Shetty (00:08:36): did she say it was sent out?
Shilpa Shetty (00:08:41): oh i guess midnight just passed
Drew Anthony (00:08:41): no
Christine Brecht (00:09:17): yeah, midnight just passed so it should be out soon
Christine Brecht (00:09:59): I think I might call it a night
Christine Brecht (00:10:06): need to be up early tomorrow
Christine Brecht (00:10:12): have a good night guys!
Drew Anthony (00:10:21): gnight christine
Ash Harrison (20:37:59): Those nominations weren’t too tough
Christine Brecht (20:38:11): hey Ash!
Ash Harrison (20:38:18): Hey Christine
Christine Brecht (20:38:23): sorry, been working on homework all night
Christine Brecht (20:38:27): are they posted?
Ash Harrison (20:38:29): Sorry for putting you guys lower in the reveal
Ash Harrison (20:38:32): Yep
Ash Harrison (20:38:38): Nominated Monet and Dan
Christine Brecht (20:38:43): right on
Christine Brecht (20:39:46): those are the perfect nominations I think
Ash Harrison (20:39:56): Now to wait on the MVP
Christine Brecht (20:40:26): yeah, sounds like this MVP is going to stay a mystery again

[christine]

Oops! And here is the original formation of the three people first in The Killers. Shilpa was added shortly afterwards:

SPOILER: Click to show

Christine Brecht (23:07:49): so... I kind of talked to you both seperately. but it sounds like we're all on the same page.
Christine Brecht (23:08:00): ...so alliance? lol
Drew Anthony (23:08:01): yeah, i like you two a lot
Drew Anthony (23:08:12): so i am super happy that we all have common connections with one another!
Ash Harrison (23:08:21): OMG am I actually being included in a group chat :-P
Christine Brecht (23:08:32): hahah! awww... poor Ash <3
Drew Anthony (23:08:38): haha, now you can be on the inside
Drew Anthony (23:08:48): but this one was created out of a bigger purpose than the last one
Drew Anthony (23:08:55): this one is ACTUALLY exclusive
Christine Brecht (23:09:22): hah! yes
Ash Harrison (23:09:24): And I’m totally down, you guys are both awesome and I’d love to work together
Christine Brecht (23:09:25): super exclusive
Christine Brecht (23:09:27): hotties only
Ash Harrison (23:09:48): Hottest bunch ever, and a very international mix
Ash Harrison (23:10:37): So who else do you think we should bring into our alliance?
Christine Brecht (23:10:37): wow! I didn't even think of that. hah!
Christine Brecht (23:11:15): how big do you think this alliance should get?
Christine Brecht (23:11:32): I don't want to add too many people, because then we face people not being on the same page
Christine Brecht (23:12:25): and I want us all to be on the same page... so this stays legit, ya know?
Drew Anthony (23:12:35): makes sense
Drew Anthony (23:12:40): we don't want another group chat expose!
Ash Harrison (23:12:56): Honestly for our core, only one more person, if even that
Christine Brecht (23:16:12): yeah, I agree
Christine Brecht (23:16:27): like us three are solid for sure but they don't need to know that lol
Ash Harrison (23:16:43): Exactly, we’ll have to make a new chat haha
Drew Anthony (23:16:44): i agree
Christine Brecht (23:16:46): I think we should make it seem like we're just starting the alliance whoever it is we do add
Drew Anthony (23:16:46): lol
Drew Anthony (23:16:50): the webs we weave
Christine Brecht (23:18:11): lol
Christine Brecht (23:20:37): do you guys have any thoughts on who we should add?
Christine Brecht (23:20:43): (it went quiet... lol)
Drew Anthony (23:25:26): i mean, i have my two favorites in here already so...
Christine Brecht (23:26:06): hah! totally ;D
Drew Anthony (23:26:43): but i do think 4 is a better number just bc it's even
Drew Anthony (23:27:32): i feel like there are some major threats, and i think that we would benefit from having another strong player who is level headed
Drew Anthony (23:27:42): and to be honest, the first person that came to my mind was shilpa
Ash Harrison (23:28:09): True, I like Shilpa, she seems like a loyal person. Have you talked to her much Christine?
Christine Brecht (23:28:29): Shilpa's nice I've talked to her a fair amount... if I need to start talking to her more I can do that too lol
Drew Anthony (23:29:20): so if we invite her though, this is a core 3, right?
Drew Anthony (23:29:28): with shilpa being 4
Ash Harrison (23:29:39): Definitely
Christine Brecht (23:29:40): are we all good with Shilpa being the fourth?
Ash Harrison (23:29:51): I’d be down with Shilpa being the fourth
Drew Anthony (23:30:00): i think we make a solid team with not too much drama, good heads on our shoulders, and decent competition skills
Drew Anthony (23:30:34): Ash, do you want the honors of making a chat? lol
Ash Harrison (23:31:06): This would be a really subtle alliance too
Drew Anthony (23:31:17): oh absolutely
Christine Brecht (23:31:30): do you feel comfortable enough propositioning Shilpa for the alliance Ash?
Christine Brecht (23:31:32): or Drew?
Drew Anthony (23:31:45): i mean, ill do whatever, i aint go not shame
Christine Brecht (23:32:24): and obviously make it seem as though we're just starting the chat
