Jacob :
ell for the first time in this game, I see a path to the end of the game starting to form. After this crazy double eviction, i have FINALLY won a HOH and ready to take MY shot at Paul.
So the first eviction of the night ended in Aaron getting evicted by a vote of 3-2. This is the THIRD time I have voted to evict Paul unsuccessfully, and the FIFTH time i have voted in the minority.
Week 2 - Erik
Week 4 - Connor
Week 5 - Jaron
Week 6 - Slothy
Week 7 - Aaron
These are all people that I didn't vote to evict. Some people might say that this is a pretty embarrassing voting record, and I will give them that, but I think I have counted this well by NEVER sitting on the block. And honestly most of the time I knew I was voting in the minority. When Slothy got evicted, me voting for Paul was more of a fuck you to Cody and the rest of the sheep that were voting with the "house" when really they were just doing whatever Cody said. The good thing about my game is that even when I've voted in the minority, I have positioned myself in such a way that it really doesn't matter to me which of the nominees go home, provided im keeping all my option open.
During the DE, Zach nominated my two allies Jay and Tristin. When I won veto I knew I was saving Tristin because A) He is a better ally than Jay and B) He was HOH last week and the target on him was bigger. I don't think Jay realised, but it really didnt matter who I saved because I was opening up the backdoor for a much bigger target. Obviously I owuld have prefered Paul up on the block, but Cody works too. He has been way to shady, playing all sides so he had to go.
Obviously I had to do a bit of damage control once Paul called me out in the skype chat, but that isnt something i need to do publically. I dont know hwy Jay felt the need to retaliate but right now my aim is to calm him down and reassure hm that he is not the "number 3" even though he is in my eyes.
I am a bit wary in terms of jay and paul. Paul has publically faught with Cody and I know for a fact that cody was secretly working with him regardless, so Jay isnt compeletely off my radar.
Right now im planning on nominating Paul and a pawn. Probably John
