Time for more incredible insight from Papa Bear
- I've got to be honest. This merge has been fifty times worse than what I thought it would be. I knew from my time on Savaii that many of the members of Upolu were going to be difficult to put up with. I had no idea it would be this bad. It's literally like I'm playing this game with animals. I truly don't think I could stand to be locked in a room with these people. I have gone from adoring this game and being passionate about playing to feeling like something has got to give. Either they need to go or I do. I said it in my first confessional and I'll say it again - Edna is the biggest pain in the ass I've ever encountered. I don't know if it's a cultural thing or what, but she really is the most annoying individual I've ever rubbed elbows with. Coach and Stacey aren't that far behind either. There are a few people in this cast that are ruining what would be an otherwise incredibly fun game.
- I still don't know about Elyse. The second we merged it was like she was all over Sophie, scouting for information. She really bugs me with that shit. I've got to be honest - I won't hate it if the Upolu tribe finds it necessary to get rid of Elyse first. I don't think they will, because that seems too predictable right now, but you never really know I guess.
That challenge was so incredibly close. I was really thinking toward the end that I was going to end up walking away victorious. Nevertheless, Dawn ended up pulling it out at the last minute. I love Dawn to death; she's one of the greatest allies a person could ask for. But she really isn't hurting that bad for immunity. I think I could've used it much more than her, and I fear that I may actually need it. Time will tell, but I'm afraid that I may regret not having my hands on some form of immunity.
- I'm hoping that at some point in the game, I will be able to strike up some sort of relationship with Mikayla and Brandon. They aren't as clinically insane as Edna or Coach, but they aren't as threatening and power hungry as Sophie or Rick. I think they are the perfect type of people that I would like to work with, so I'm hoping that maybe a little bit later down the road they might be a little more open to the option of switching things up a little bit. As it stands right now, it's not looking good for me.
I think I'm actually going to let that be it for me. Not a whole lot to report other than bad news. We'll see how this all turns out.
