Somehow my score of 928 in DOND on Day 6 prevented me from being nominated on Day 7 (meaning 6 of 9 other people scored below 928...wow!). I talked to my ally and we agreed that getting Oedipus out would be the best move for both of us. He hadn't yet been nominated, has an extremely high level, and just proved to be too big of a threat.
The competition was Match 3 and I was decently confident in my score to save me. Day 8 came around and (1) Oedipus was evicted (2) I wasn't nominated.
So here I am on Day 8, not nominated, meaning I'm at least to the final 8. We have two, potentially three, inactives, which is really slowing the game down. At the same time, however, they are keeping me safe and out of the nomination slots. We'll have to see how this eviction goes.
As for the competition, it was Numbers, possibly my favorite game (though I have never played WOF. I'm confident that my score will keep me out of nominations, especially with the inactives we have.
