Day 10 [New Rio Tribe � Adam, Eloy, Joel, Joel, Megan, Tim] Joel: So the game has been going pretty well so far. A few days ago I had talked to Adam, we have known each other since the first few days in this game, and asked him if he wanted to align with me. He said yes, and I was ecstatic, because as far as I know, there hasn't been any strategizing or alliance making in progress since the beginning. We kind of didn't even have to worry about anything, because hell our tribe couldn't be beat in the challenges. Then, out of nowhere we had a tribe switch. At first I was happy, because I was like is the chance for the old Magellan to really lay in on the old Rio, and for us to just dominate the game. Then I found out that yeah, even though I am on a tribe with five old tribe mates, we are still in for a hurting. The other tribe is outnumbered with my people. It is very depressing, but it will put a new twist on the game, so one tribe cannot dominate the entire way. Over the past few days I have really been talking with and getting to know Eloy. He is a really great guy, and I find myself enjoying the countless hours we spend talking to each other about things other than the game. He told me that he didn't feel comfortable in the tribe, because not many people speak to him. I was there to comfort him, and make him feel better, and I had a talk with Adam a little later on. We both decided that we liked him, and that we wanted him to stay around for as long as possible. So later that night, I told Eloy about Adam and mine alliance, and extended an offer for him to join. He said he would be more than happy to, and we were glad to have him. Even though I probably trust Eloy more than anyone in the game right now, I need to take into consideration that this is a game, and that he could be playing it really hard, and making me feel like I can trust him, when I really can't. I do not think this is true, but who knows. At the last immunity challenge let me tell you, I was very pissed. I do not like to lose anything I don't have to, and this was not a challenge we had to lose. Our tribe just completely fell apart and completely sucked up the entire thing. I was embarrassed to be a Rio member, when the challenge was done and over. Meghan really pissed me off during the challenge. I was throwing out answers left and right, just guesses of course, but they made sense. She would just disregard my answer because I said I was not completely sure. Come to find out when we found out what the actual answers were, I pretty much was correct on all the guesses I had made. I am still waiting for Meghan to apologize for disregarding me like that, because she most certainly rubbed me the wrong way. I really can't wait for the next immunity challenge. I am looking forward to redemption, and I hope we win out until the merge because the more we lose the more dismal it looks for Adam, Eloy, and I. Adam: Before the last vote Magellan sent Joey to the exile island for the second time in a row. It really didn't surprise me, because since old Rio has a majority on the other tribe, it was pretty predictable, that one of them was going. I really wish it would have been Parisa, because that way Joey would not have gotten another clue, and we would have been able to vote him out because I do not like Joey. At tribal council Parisa was voted out, and I really don't think it came as a surprise to anyone. All of us, seemed pretty much collectively that it was the right way to go, because had we of won the immunity, it was a safe bet that Sebastian or Shuri would have been voted off. Later that day Megan and Eloy sat and chatted about the game and their tribe. Megan: Tim is basically getting away with murder out here. He doesn�t do much. Eloy: Yeah, I can admit that I feel the same way. Megan: It�s like he�s skating through the game without doing anything and it doesn�t seem fair to me. Eloy: I know. I was talking with Joel about that earlier this morning. If we lost the next challenge, he�s definitely my vote. I�d rather have Joey around who helps in challenges and is at least fun to talk to. Megan: Me too, I know. Eloy: I tossed a vote his way last time, I won�t mind doing it again. Megan: Me either Megan and Eloy looked down the terrain and saw Joey walking back to camp. He was home from exile. Joey: Hey My name is Joey. Hey whats up? O well, I'm in this Survivor game, and my tribe has lost all three immunities. That stinks man. I know. But I've only been to one tribal council, haha. In all reality I'm a little bit devestated. Parisa and I were the only two original Rio members to stay on Rio. After our immunity loss, AGAIN, which by the way I completely blame on the former Magellan Tribe. I think they are full of shit when they say they tried. Give me a break. Joel did amazing in the second challenge, and in this one I ask him which one he needs help with and he goes "Uhh I dunno which ones are done." Well either you threw the challenge Joel, or you�re a fucking moron. When it comes to him it could be either. So anyway, I knew we were down in numbers. I tried to convince Eloy to jump ship, and it probably would have worked had I gotten more time to talk to him. Regardless there was only one card I could play......EXILE!!! I made really strong bonds with my tribe mates, and I told them right before the tribal switch that if we lose, Exile me, so I can stay safe, and they did it, and it was beautiful! So my tribe has lost three immunities now, and I've only gone to one tribal council. I don't want to count my chickens before they hatch, but I'm pretty confident if we lose again, I'll probably be exiled again. So let those Magellan fucks throw another challenge, because it'll be one of them going home, and I'll laugh all the way to the merge. I'm SO the Sally Schumann of this season. [New Magellan � Kimber, Landon, Ray, Sebastian, Shuri, Travis] The Magellan tribe woke up one by one. Shuri was the first up and started making fire. Sebastian soon followed her and helped. Shuri: We�re lucky to be here still. Sebastian: Yeah we need to continue winning these challenges. Shuri: It�s the only way. Landon: I�m pretty sure Parisa was the one who just got voted out at the last vote off. Serves her right because that bitch voted for me before! Ray: I'm satisfied with the tribe shuffle to a certain extent. First with Amia getting the boot it got rid of a slacker and certainly the weakest player in this game. Should our tribe lose a challenge we know exactly who is going home, either Sebastian or Shuri. Landon, Travis, Kimber and I are going to hold strong and vote out Shuri or Sebastian depending who does not go to Exile Island. So this next challenge is no pressure for me, if we lose big deal and if we win all the better. I'm still giving all the challenges my all, with my competitive spirit I couldn't throw a challenge. Travis: What do you think happened? Ray: Well, Parisa was completely outnumbered. I�d be surprised if she were still here. Travis: Yeah, I think the same. Ray: I just don�t understand why we didn�t Exile her and we did Joey. I thought it was you, me, Kimber and her to the end? Travis: It was but things got mixed up over here. Joey is stronger than her and we thought he could help Rio get further. Three Rio people have been voted out and only one Magellan person, the odds aren�t looking too good for us. Ray: I see, okay. Ray: On the other side of things the shuffle did sting a little bit. With Parisa and Joey staying at Rio, I knew one of them would sadly be voted out. After winning the last challenge we sent Joey to Exile, so that meant Parisa was in danger of being voted out and was eventually voted out. It was unfortunate that Parisa was voted out, she was a good player and someone I had an alliance with, but what�s done is done and I just have to move on. I must say that I was a little discouraged with Landon and Travis at the Exile Island discussion. I told them that it would have been better to send Parisa to Exile Island, mainly since Joey had been there and it was possible he had the idol and Joey could have also lied to the other tribe telling him he had the idol to trick them since he was at Exile the Exile before that. Just a little strategy I thought could have worked, I was a little disappointed but I'm not going hold it against those two.
