On Uzume, Peccadillo and Dumbginger solidified their alliance with TeamJacz and Useamint, creating "NuSu" once again putting Maxiphone on the outs. Although Useamint was happy with his majority alliance he couldn't shake the memory of Teamjacz trying to throw him under the bus just a few days earlier.
On Tsukuyomi Bowling4fun was able to hold on a little bit longer as Kickass93, Foryouselena, and LaughingOutLoud were just waiting to vote him out. Lucky for Bowling4fun, The merge came along.
At the merge, everyone was trying to find their place, and the outcasts of the former tribes, Bowling4fun and Maxiphone sought refuge with the their former enemies. With a reunited LaughingOutLoud and Maxiphone, they quickly updated each other on what had happened in the last few days while pledging loyalty with ForYouSelena and Kickass93, although they did find themselves lacking power when NuSu brought in Bowling4Fun to keep their numbers strong. In a last ditch effort Maxiphone tried to get Useamint to flip sides, but Useamint decided to stay loyal to NuSu and in a 5-4 vote Kickass93 was taken out, Leaving ForYouSelena as the last original Raijin member and without her most trusted ally.
8 Survivors Remain, Who will be voted out tonight?
ForYouSelena was an only child, but throughout the game Kickass had become just like a brother to her. They had become so close that it was heartbreaking to see him out. In the middle of the night she shed a tear, but made sure that no one saw her being weak. Maybe Immunity was her only shot now..
Peccadillo wasn't like totally happy voting out Kickass. Kickass was cute to look at and kind of funny, but she totally had better things to look at ya know? right! This vote was totally one step closer to the finals where everyone would give her a million dollars and a new boyfriend. so perf!
TeamJacz had been in a funny game, it was a dance. One step back and one step forward. But maybe, finally, he was headed in the right direction.
DumbGinger was good at this game. He was the strongest and the smartest. There is no way he could lose. Honestly he was just proud of himself.
Bowling4Fun felt so much satisfaction voting out Kickass93, While kickass was never mean to him, he knew that Kickass was prepared to vote out Bowling the next chance he got. Switching sides was the best move for him---no it was the only move for him.
Maxiphone couldn't stay in a majority to save his life. Honestly, he just felt like the kiss of death. Every time he made a friend, his friend would be voted out...It just seemed hopeless.
LaughingOutLoud could have quit this game at many points. He's been bullied and victimized, but that's not who he is. He doesn't quit and he doesn't give up. Although he is cornered now, he just needs to find a way to strike. He needs a plan.
Useamint had been conflicted and almost voted out Bowling4fun, but stability was important, and it was important to make sure that he was safe. He had the numbers, and sure he might have been on the bottom of the final five...but at least he knew he had final five! that was something. Then again...why only play for fifth?

**Tribal Life**
*Sekai*
Peccadillo decided it was totally time to be useful! using some leaves she made some totally cool hats! they'll keep the sun out and stuff! The vote though seemed to be easy, whatever Bowling4fun and DumbGinger wanted to do seemed to work well for her. Totes.
Bowling4fun didn't need to keep any secrets form Peccadillo and DumbGinger, at the point everyone knew that there were no idols left, so it didn't matter. They had control and they were geared and ready.
DumbGinger had planned for everything...He knew when to make alliances, and when to backstab people...but now that he was at this point of the game he knew one other thing. He had to make the jury like him. Although he planned to steamroll his way to the end, he couldn't win without the jury, and like hell if he'd pull an Ozzy or Russell. He was going to be kind, honorable, and respectable.
LaughingOutLoud was heartbroken when DumbGinger came to him. When he was told that he was going to be the vote tonight...it was a tough pill to swallow, but he needed to put on a happy face. He smiled and gave DumbGinger a hug. It was about forgiveness.
not to ForYouSelena, for Selena it was about a plan of attack! She wasn't the target but there needed to be a way out of this. LaughingOutLoud and Maxiphone got together in the water to think of what they could do. how they could fix this.
It was a big island, but a small camp. You could almost always see people doing something. So when TeamJacz saw Dumbginger talking to LaughingOutLoud..it seemed a bit shady. He knew something was up and got with Useamint to talk about it.
Useamint was approached by both Teamjacz and Maxiphone, it was a bit of an odd combination to be honest. But when Teamjacz started to get confrontational with Maxiphone about what was going on. it seemed that Maxiphone came clean.
Maxiphone came "clean" but of course, it was the lie of a lifetime. When Teamjacz cornered him, he told him a little story. A story about a genius player DumbGinger who had a genius plan to backstab TeamJacz. Since TeamJacz seemed to be the only person who could compete with DumbGinger it seemed perfectly logical to Teamjacz and Useamint. Good think Maxiphone had a solution, backstab Dumbginger before dumbginger could backstab him.....It was the most complicated lie he told all game...hopefully Useamint and TeamJacz bought it.

And the 11th person voted out of Blog Survivor...
Bowling4fun, 5 votes is enough. The Tribe has spoken.
Bowling4fun walks off, Peccadillo/DumbGinger are surprised that Useamint/TeamJacz backstabbed them, while Useamint/TeamJacz are surprised that Selena/Maxiphone/ LaughingOutLoud backstabbed them. And honestly....those three were surprised that it even worked.
