I have made myself the biggest threat. In my last game the biggest threat got to the end and beat me, who played the best strategic game of my life. So I'm hoping I can do the same here. I have a pretty great social game going on and tons of allies. But they will all want to turn on me at the end. I am aware of that. It'll be fun trying to get there!

I should really update this more. Viv is all happy about the idea and agrees with most of my thoughts and thinks that we can make it all the way to final 4 with our brains and items and social connections and tie it up there then be in the final 3 together or one of us. And if I lose the tiebreaker I lose the tiebreaker, but it's my best path to the final 3 right now with an assured spot through to the final 4 working with Vivi now that he has that nullifier. I asked him to show it to me though. Because if he doesn't... sad face.
He also proposed an alliance of me and him and Balthier. Which is fucking fantastic. I feel like I have this incredible, UTR, no one knows connection with Balthier and I see him as this guy who I trust and who trusts me and we've been mostly honest with each other all game and I can see him potentially taking me, but more likely Vivi, but maybe me. Idk his psyche that well. But he could just be like, fuck this fagget, let me take the chick. I feel like I will beat him or Vivi in the finals. So it's good there. And I feel Vivi would actually take me, thinking he could beat anyone, but there is also a chance he takes Balthier. But these two are the ones I feel I have the best shot with actually taking me, and with beating them in a final challenge.
So I'm loving that final 3 idea and I can't wait to see if it works out. Only flaw is Vivi doesn't know I have two idols, might not play give me his trinket to play on him this round so he can play it on himself next round... and could randomly go this round if Tidus tries to take him out instead of Terra, who I've floated to everyone.
If Terra plays an idol that would be a problem too. But as long as we both make it to the final 5 with those two powers it doesn't matter who is with us because Balthier should still be there. And if he's not we still have the votes advantage and can tie it again at F4. Unless Vivi randomly takes me out before then, or then, I feel good about this.

After I brought up all this to Balthier he confessed that Tidus and Terra and Seph and himself have had a 4 person alliance that he no longer wants to be a part of because they are now trying to make that the final 4 alliance. So it looks like Balthier is now in a final 3 with me and Vivi. And depending on what happens tonight they might vote for Cloud. We might vote for Seph just to ensure no idol is played on their side but I concocted a plan for Balthie to tell Terra and Tidus a few minutes before tribal that they are getting votes and he's not sure if they're safe tonight. So if either have it they can't compare notes without breaking the pm rule and they'll just play it on themselves. And not on Sephiroth. But that might be too ambitious. Not sure yet. May keep things more simple. Also I want to play my idol on Vivi tonight to make sure he stays to ensure I survive F6, F5, F4 like I will if he does, but he doesn't want me to. So I might have to anyway. But if I don't after he begs me not to... and if he goes... then I'm fucked!

Oh fuck this. I just typed up an epic post laughing at the last message Tidus sent me and how he thinks he is still in control of the game and has no idea that I know he really wants to vote for Cloud tonight. And be my guest. If Cloud goes, Idc. Next round Vivi and I are safe, move into the final 5, and have powers to get into the final 3 and our alliance with Balthier. Plans in motion.
"No, I'm sorry. Vivi is more of a threat to me personally than Terra. Idk what Seph and Balthier are doing but asked them to vote for Vivi as well. Obviously Terra is too. I really have to go but I'll be back and we can argue about this later."

What gave you that impression?

The impression he wants to vote out Cloud? Balthier told us that last night when we formed a final three with him. I think I confessionalized about it. I'm not sure. I have been talking a lot in messages about it.
But with him saying he's voting out Vivi and Terra saying that, why would they do that if they think we have an idol... they wouldn't, they'd blindside Cloud.
But what they fail to think about is that I don't care if Cloud goes and that if Balthier and me and Vivi all vote Seph, Cloud won't vote himself so it ties at worst for us. Or Cloud goes which I'm fine with.
I need Vivi. Vivi is the key to helping me get to the end.
As for Tidus thinking he's running things, he said that and then said he had to leave as if it was set in stone that he got everyone else in the game he needed to vote out Vivi to save his Terra. If he does vote Cloud anyway tonight which I think he will, It'll be nice to see him burning that bridge while I've already informed Cloud that's what Tidus was planning along with Balthier telling him that.
