A Look Through Holly's Eyes

[Holly Hoffman]

Ho-Ho's IN THE BUILDING!!....*looks around*....I MEAN ISLAND!!!! Bring on this competition! Really, my only goal right now is to make jury, then I'll focus on winning from there. If there's anything I've learned from playing ORGs, it's never get ahead of yourself. I just hope whatever tribe I've landed on, it doesn't have inactives. So far, I haven't talked to anyone because I've been busy with school and family so I hope that doesn't work against me. I don't know we'll see what happens. Last survivor game I played I came in 6th, now (hopefully) it's time to take it all the way ;D

[Holly Hoffman]

YAYY!!! LA FLOR!! To be honest, I picked La Flor because it looks like a majority of people picked it, so to me it looks like theyre the most active. Hopefully that's a strategic move on my part so that my tribe won't be full of inactives. On my tribe, so far I have Tyrone, Jimmy T, and Chase. Jimmy T didnt even wanna be a part of La Flor so he's my first vote to cast out if we ever lose. I don't know, its still the beginning. We'll see how we get along.

[Zach Galifianakis]

Any possible alliances forming with your La Flor tribemates at the moment?

[Holly Hoffman]

right now i'm in an alliance with jill, tyrone, and jimmy j. they seem to be the most active in our tribe so far. and i know after talking with jill and jimmy j that theyll give it their all, especially jimmy j since this is his first ORG. i know he wouldnt wanna fuck up.

[Holly Hoffman]

so i talked to tyrone last nite and he told me that in addition to me, jill, him, and jimmy j, he wants to add jimmy t to the alliance........ -_- really??! i guess i can learn to like him but still. it just makes me nervous because i feel like jimmy could possibly rat our alliance off and be the swing vote in a way. but after talkin to chase it seems hes really not into the game right now so ik he wouldnt start any alliances.

marty is my main concern. i played with him in a previous ORG so I know how he plays. he's not really active and he tends to forget that he's playing an ORG so he can miss alotta challenges. but one thing i know is that he can bury his own grave and i wont be responsible for it this time. (i kinda got him out last time we played > tee hee).

to be honest, i love my tribe to death but they do not know how to make conversation. half the time its like talking to a wall *cough* jimmy t *cough*. with him, i talked to him sed wuts up. talked bout wut i was doing. made conversation that can be replied to but he jsut stopped talking. tyrone idk. it may just be me but he seems like hes very apathetic. but he did give kudos to me by talking to jimmy j. so hopefully that got me on his good graces. jimmy j im enjoying talking to since its his first one. nd i think he knows he needs to know how to socialize. jill i think im closest with cuz she actually talks. and with chase, idk. he straight up told me that he's not into the game yet.

Holly Hoffman: (6:24:19 PM) hey chase! hows it going?
Chase Rice: (6:24:48 PM) Hey, not bad...I haven't memorized the sns yet, who is this?
Holly Hoffman: (6:27:04 PM) oh sorry
Holly Hoffman: (6:27:07 PM) its holly
Chase Rice: (6:27:17 PM) It's okay, I was just too lazy to check
Holly Hoffman: (6:27:28 PM) lol no problem i get like that too
Chase Rice: (6:27:40 PM) The game got off to a rocky start and it hasn't really grabbed my interest yet

hopefully his disinterest can help me later? sash marty and, i feel like im missing someone...wait in my tribe theres me, jill, tyrone, jimmy j, jimmy t, chase, sash, marty, nd SHANNON (i had to look back at the board for that one). sash marty and shannon are just like there. sooo they really havent affected me much. ill prolly pm them later on just so they cant say i never talked to them. ight hoho needs beauty rest! ill get bck to u guys later!

[Holly Hoffman]

is it too early to say that our tribe is fucked for our first challenge? like marty hasnt logged in in 2 days and unless he logs in within an hr he wont have enough time to pour gahh im just happy most of our tribe is active. i just hope that the other tribe has inactives of their own :/

there tribe may not finish filling their buckets either.

also hypothetical question:
if Erik comes back lets say tommorrow and says his dog died or something so he was spending the day mourning, would he still be the target or would there be somebody else in mind?

[Holly Hoffman]

obviously real life will definitely come first so if thats the case then ill definitely sympathize with him and id really wanna give him another chance. but its just a matter of if my alliance wants to give him another chance. if thts the case with erik then i think itll take alotta re-thinking with tyrone, jill, jj, and jt. as of right now i wouldnt know who else to put on the chopping block. if i had to say someone rite now itd have to be sash or shannon just cuz i havent talked to them yet.

[Holly Hoffman]

so Marty did end up having a personal crisis that affected his participation. but thank God it wasn't a death. but just saying even if Marty was able to stay, he still would not have been able to help our tribe out that much. if he were here, he would still be on my hitlist. but hey now its one down, 3 more to go on my list if were unfortunate enough to lose. first my plan is to convince my alliance to take out sash first, then chase, then shannon. hopefully, me jt, jj, tyrone, and jill can make it to merge together. from then on, my plan is to talk to a few of the other tribe members and try to find out who was on the outskirts. (hopefully theyre r desperate enough people on the other tribe) in addition to that, i wanna try my hardest in immunity challenge in the merge, but i don't wanna win every single one. thats a HUGE TARGET.

by the way are we allowed to talk to the other tribe pre-merge?

i just really hope we can get this challenge done. but thing is if both tribes get to 300, then the tiebreaker happens. if we lose this challenge based on a tiebreaker??? OMG id be soooooo tight you hve no idea. i might just have to shank a bitch....nd since jill's my girl id jst have to shank the next closest thing to a chick on our tribe.... sash

[Holly Hoffman]

OMG WE WON!! AHH!! we really needed that one just to stay in the game. now were only one player behind them! so if we win this one we can really catch up.

during the challenge i noticed tyrone and jimmy j helping out jimmy t during the challenge which really annoyed kelly bruno. as much as i wanna say to her just grow up and take it, i just realized this can help me out when merge comes >. okay so since tyrone and jimmy j helped out jimmy t, kelly bruno got uberly pissed off at them. when it comes to merge, their tribe will be targetting those 2, which will give me more time to work on the other tribe to try to gain some allies. and when theyre getting targetted, ill be under the radar and can win immunites i think their desperation to win and team unity just helped me get further in the game (possibly without them). hmm. excellent they just buried their grave, and im just gonna watch them lay in it. >

[Bradley Cooper]

btw just so you know, Tyrone is accusing me of telling him info from your confessional which is not true, I asked him if he was in an alliance of 5 on AIM randomly and he's now claiming it came straight from your confessional. He's really idiotic lol

[Holly Hoffman]

lol kay thanks bradley and ughh i knoo im starting to second guess myself why am i in an alliance with him lolol. him and jimmy j are really burying their own graves. im talking with jill right now and debating about getting rid of jimmy j after sash if we lose 2 challenges. were most likely gonna do it but we just need to guarantee that chase will be on our side. nd also me and her need to break up tyrone and jimmy j since they know each other in real life so we kno that when it comes down to it me and her r screwed.

seriously tho its cool to play with people u kno but y would he admit it, it just puts a target on his back. lke i kno someone in this game but im not advertising that i know that person. thats just a stupid plan that i had to learn the hard way in the last game i was in. if it comes down to it, i might just need to reveal that they know each other.

[Holly Hoffman]

btw am i the only tht finds it funny that wendy was the first one voted out in her season and shes the first one voted out in this season too? just putting it out there ^_^

[Holly Hoffman]

This was definitely a difficult vote even though it should've been easy. Sash would be the easy vote since he hasnt participated much in the challenges. But then, Jimmy J really started getting on our nerves (Me, Jill and Shannon). Like sure, he's active, but he's running before he can walk in a way. Like there's something about him that just annoys me :/. nd plus since he and tyrone know each other, that just makes them even more powerful, which could get potentially threatening along the way. So it may help to get rid of him when theyre weak. We can't let them have the power can we?Plus, with that power couple eliminated, that leaves room for me and my lil friend (who i kno in real life) to take over our tribe. Btw have u guys guessed who it is yet? lol So with that being said, I voted to cast out Jimmy J this round. Hopefully thisll pay off. Like i said, couples put targets on their back, thats y i havent revealed who i know in this game

so besides that, Im actually warming up to chase and shannon. despite chase not being completely active, i can tell that hes definitely smarter than what he puts off. so hes voting for jimmy j, thats what he told me at least. well see if hes telling me the truth. and if he needed extra incentive to vote jimmy j off, i told him that tyrone and jimmy know each other . so i feel like chase is definitely underrated so maybe me and him can work together in the future.

Shannon I'm definitely getting close to. Like if i wanted to work with anyone on this tribe now, i would want to work with shannon and chase. cuz i feel like shannon and chase r pretty much the sane ones on our tribe. so I hope that they trust me.

[Holly Hoffman]

OH......MY......GOD....tribal swap......hold up. *runs to water* *waits for a few seconds* *runs back* kay i just pissed my pants. at least in the water no1 can tell. like altho this tribal swap got me extremely paranoid, it coulda been worse. I couldve landed on the 5-3 tribe on new La Flor. Once I saw the twist, besides my eyes bugging out. I'm glad that I'm on the same tribe as Jill. At least i have someone i could trust on my new tribe. it just sux that i lost shannon though :/. So obviously the first thing i do is PM the old Espada members. right now, the only ones that pmed me back are purple kelly, dan, and benry. I rlly like dan and benry. purple kelly kinda gave me like a cold shoulder and didnt seem welcoming. dan and benry welcomed me with open arms i feel like so with them i feel like im not going out first (hopefully). despite the fact that i talked to them already, i feel like its still necessary to win this immunity. altho i feel like if i do, it mite put a big target on my back. but if i come close to it, it mite still put a target on my back. so when in doubt, fight my ass off for this immunity. hopefully this works out. havent been this scared since jj almost costing us the tiebreaker
