I'm getting closer with the members of my tribe, especially the ones who are really into the challenges. These first two challenges have been great because I’ve been able to take a leadership role without being overbearing or perceived as a threat. In both challenges I’ve come up with key ideas that might lead us to victory. In the first challenge I noticed a faster way to complete the swimming leg. This time, I noticed our tribe was really worried about Chavin and how many huts they were building. Since their post count was much higher than ours, everyone was getting discouraged and the suggestion to throw the challenge was even thrown out. Instead of throwing the challenge, I suggested to create a fake post thread, where we would post as many times as we possibly could with the hope of doing to them what they had just done to us: scare them into thinking about quitting. So last night, while we were building huts, Eddie and I (along with various other members) set out on the task of distracting the other team, and believe it or not I think it might have worked. It was great because Eddie could participate from his sitting out seat, just by distracting the other team. Once we got to around 500 posts ahead of them, their post count just stopped going up. We kept producing huts at the same rate we had been producing them all challenge, and they just stopped posting. So either they were making a fake post thread as well and stopped, or they were really far ahead of us in the challenge and then gave up. It’s still to be determined if we’re making enough huts, but I think we stand a pretty decent shot. Regardless of whether or not we win or lose, an idea like that brought up the team morale and gave us a good shot to win, and I don’t think my teammates will forget that. I was also really glad to get Eddie involved, because I want to keep him in as long as possible and the move involved he is at this stage the more likely it is that he’ll stay in. I’ve been getting pretty tight with Eddie, and I’d like to start an official pact/alliance at some point very soon. I’ve been waiting for the right moment to bring it up, because I don’t want to come off as someone scrambling for alliances. But I’ve dropped in language like “I’ve got your back” and “I’ll look out for you if you’re away,” so it’s probably just a matter of time. Of course I don’t want to lose any challenges, but it would make things clearer if we did have to go to TC because I would be able to make offers like that without seeming desperate. Especially on this tribe, where it’s all but certain that Melody would be the first to go. So it might be a luxury to have a TC or too, but there’s no reason to throw challenges at this point. I’m sure there will be a mix-up before the merge, so it’s imperative that Norte stays together for as long as possible before things get changed around. That way everyone will be in the majority all the time. I’d also like to see if Eddie’s gotten any similar kinds of offers from anyone else. If he’s with, say, Joey, I could get in on that alliance but not be the leader of it, which would put me in a good spot. Ginny is another person I can see myself aligning with because we’ve both been leaders in the challenges. However, she comes off as kind of bossy and may be perceived as a threat down the road, which would not be good. I’d like to align myself with people who stay a little bit under the radar, just so that I can choose whether to put myself in the spotlight or not. We’ll see what starts happening soon. Right now it’s all about winning the hut building challenge.

Monday 9:15PM:
Well, it looks like I got my wish. We lost immunity, it's tribal council time, and I just learned a tremendous amount about where everyone stands. Caydie, Hooker, Ginny, Matt, and I formed a 5-person alliance that seems to be a good one. Everyone said it's who they would have wanted in an alliance, but it seemed to me more that those five people just happened to be around when people started talking about voting. But regardless, I look to be safe from that side. However, I still wanted to get an alliance with Eddie. He is a perfect ally to have, under the radar, agrees with almost everything I think, and seemingly very trustworthy. My strategy in this game is to trust no one but have a few very close allies, and so far the strategy is coming together. I don't trust anyone in my 5 person alliance, especially when two or three of them came out and said they already have "moles" with the other tribe. Sketchy. I also hate that Caydie and Ginny both said that they "love Brittni" .. that translates to they wouldn't vote her out if it came to that. So I am going to have to lobby hard for Joey to be voted out if we go to TC again. I'm actually *kind of* hoping for a tribal switch very early in the game, so I can align with a large majority of my tribe and then not get called out for it.
But I shouldn't say that, because as I learned today I should be more careful what I wish for..
