Welcome Courtney,

From the looks of it, you weren't completely surprised. Hope you enjoyed the game!

I'm guessing you were planning an FTC with Paul and PG in it? I would've argued for you in that case.

So now I know why Jared wanted you in the F4 lol. But I wonder, if Jared was in the majority, why did he bid high on the challenge? Makes no sense.

My plan was Paul and Jared, with PG as a backup I didn't hate if she somehow got immunity in the F4 challenge. I figured I had a pretty good shot in both of those.

I figured you were setting up to flip against me with Chumlee and Martin after the PG vote, which is why I wanted to pull the trigger when I did. I'm not sure if it would have entirely worked, but I could have seen Gear going for it to try to pick up an easier FTC (and I was getting word that Gear was thinking of going for me, although I think that was ultimately exaggerated).

Take immunity from Chumlee if Chumlee didn't use his 20 that he obviously had. He was the person we actually wanted out next.

Although to be fair I wanted Chumlee literally every round so there's that.

Yes, Gear was very much wanting to go for you, he made that much clear to Chumlee and I. However, we dissuaded him from it. I really really really wanted Paul out badly, so I wouldn't have gone for you after it. Then I wanted to set up a Gear blindside at F6, followed by a Chumlee vote at F5 because I thought he was too dangerous. So I didn't really want you out until maybe F4.

I wish you had come to me about Gear targeting me instead of me hearing about it from everyone else (including Paul telling me that it sounded like you were trying to butter him for a vote against me), because then we might have been able to work something out. Although if you came for Paul, I would have been on you because Paul was my #1 guy from pretty early on and that never really changed.

I don't know what path forward Gear sees for himself in this game, now. If he goes to F4 with the 3 golds, he's burned way too many cards to win that last challenge, and getting second is questionable at best. His best bet was to let Martin go down this round then tried to win the tiebreak next round by baiting me to go low on my cards (which I would have absolutely been greedy enough to have done). I don't think he can flip back to Jared/Paul and win a tiebreak next round, so we're seeing at least 1 gold in FTC and I probably vote for PG and maybe Chumlee over Gear.

Paul, telling you I was buttering him up? No, I was just trying to keep conversation going because I thought it would be polite to do so. Something that he has apparently forgotten about. Talking to him, especially after his SECOND absence, was an agony. I was never going to ask him about any votes, ever, I did not want to work with him. And I wasn't going to plan that Paul vote with you anyway, we kind off drifted off especially postmerge. I would have contacted Chumlee, Gear, Jared and Martin about it. I was actually planning a Paul vote before he won immunity, with Chumlee especially.

I'm going to vote Gear if he gets there probably, followed by Chumlee, Martin and Jared. I might vote PG too, but I'm never going to vote for Paul. Never ever.

I'm guessing you, Paul and PG were the Martin votes?

I really wish I had stood my ground on that Paul vote in the premerge, but I wanted to keep Gear happy.

Me/Paul/Jared, unless Jared was playing me big time and PG was just sending obviously garbage vibes for no reason

Well, Jared did play me big time. And I can definitely see PG sending obviously garbage "vibes" for no reason.

If Jared flipped on me here, he closed probably his best path to victory.

If PG flipped on me, she made a smart movie maybe a round early

Are you saying that Jared wouldn't win the hypothetical Jared/Paul/PG FTC?

I don't think that happens, and if it does PG could very easily win that

Like I vote Paul there so PG needs only 3 votes and there'd be 3 golds on the jury + you maybe voting there as a vote against Jared

I remember Chumlee telling me he played the private 20. I was like yeah whatever dude go do you.

I can easily see Chumlee voting Jared over PG, and Gear as well. If Jenn is still gone he'd just wins and Paul probably votes Jared in the tiebreaker as well.

Like, from what Chumlee told me PG and he weren't really all that close. And I do trust that information because he was left out of the loop on my vote and stuff.

What do you think the most likely F3 is as of now? You were obviously much more informed than I.

And from what you've been telling be Jared could have easily beaten me at FTC but that's beside the point.

I think either Gear/Paul/Jared or Chumlee/PG/Martin. The 6-person jury and no swaps makes going to FTC w/ anyone from the other tribe very, very bad if the merge has a 5-5 split or even a 6-4 split.
