Tribal Council #9 - Discussion

[Jeff Probst]

Tribal Council

    

Hello Malaga and welcome to Tribal Council.

Let's get right to the questions.

Morgan - Congratulations on winning individual Immunity! How does it feel to have won?

Everyone - This challenge involved members of the other tribe targeting you specifically to take you out. Did anything surprise you based on who was targeting who?

Everyone - Now that the jury has begun, how has your strategy changed? Are you playing more cautiously, or taking more risks? Why?

Everyone - People were expecting a merge this round, but it was just another tribe swap? Are you treating your current tribe as a permanent tribe, or are you of the mindset that the merge will be next round? 

The voting deadline is Sunday January 25th at 10:00pm EST. If you do not vote by this time, you will receive a self-vote. As you already know, voting is to be done in your thread titled "Voting History" using the parchment below. Good luck!

~Not really. It's basically what I expected, I targeted the stranger that never talked to me, like who even is BOB? I don't know her...

Everyone - Now that the jury has begun, how has your strategy changed? Are you playing more cautiously, or taking more risks? Why?
~I mean its like you want these people to like, you but at the same time...you don't want to be obviously fake. You know?

Everyone - People were expecting a merge this round, but it was just another tribe swap? Are you treating your current tribe as a permanent tribe, or are you of the mindset that the merge will be next round?
~Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't merge next round either. And both sides had yet another tribal. I mean it would suck. but Honestly...I think maybe we will just keep swapping till there is a final 2...Which again, would suck. And just change the game.

Not particularly - granted my strategy was “YOLO throw rocks wherever” so I could've missed the deeper meaning to some moves. But I don’t think it told us anything we don’t already know, except maybe that Courtney and Pete hate each other, haha.

Everyone - Now that the jury has begun, how has your strategy changed? Are you playing more cautiously, or taking more risks? Why?

Well John, I’m fairly certain Jeff Probst doesn’t play ORGs, although who knows. However, I’m sure everyone knows that big moves don’t necessarily make for smart moves, so I’m gonna play my game the way Alec Christ always has - smartly.

Everyone - People were expecting a merge this round, but it was just another tribe swap? Are you treating your current tribe as a permanent tribe, or are you of the mindset that the merge will be next round?

Right now the reigning theory, and by reigning I mean my crackpot little experiment, is that we will forever be in tribes, and swap ever round til F3. There, if the one person tribe loses the other tribe is F2, or tiebreaker challenge. Obviously there has to be some meaning to these constant swaps besides destroying our little minds...right...right?

On second thought can we please just merge?

I was mostly surprised at Jaclyn's bitch fit she sent me. Like seriously bitch build a fucking bridge and get over it. It's a fucking challenge! 

Everyone - Now that the jury has begun, how has your strategy changed? Are you playing more cautiously, or taking more risks? Why?

Eh not really

Oh there best be a merge next round! I want that merge feast!

I figure Sandra targeted me cause I'm the only original Malaga on this side. I targeted Bob cause I felt like throwing at someone! May as well have been him.

Now that the jury has begun, how has your strategy changed? Are you playing more cautiously, or taking more risks? Why?

I think it's important for the jury to see you actively play the game in the time they're in the game, so I'm sure that's on everyone's mind. Jury management is vital for sure.

People were expecting a merge this round, but it was just another tribe swap? Are you treating your current tribe as a permanent tribe, or are you of the mindset that the merge will be next round?

I think most people are counting on a merge next round, seeing as it'll be Final 8. This is the fifth pre-merge tribe though, it's taking forever to merge, so who knows.

1. Thanks, Jeff! It feels awesome to have the immunity necklace. 

2. Not really? I mean it all made sense to me. 

3. It hasn't changed really, I'm myself and people like that, awesome! If not, then... oh well. Don't really care to change for others. 

4. I like the swaps but I think it's getting ridiculous where we haven't even merged and it's about to be final 8 lol. I've never seen any season of Survivor online or on the show where they still haven't merged.
