Kdadams76: i'm sorry if i made you nervous last night
ryansurvivor1984: its fine

Kdadams76: gracie lou!
SurvivorGracie: Hey Kyle
Kdadams76: can i ask you a question?
SurvivorGracie: sure
Kdadams76: if we go to the merge underhanded, is it the girls' intention to take out the guys...vanuatu style?
SurvivorGracie: honestly .. we haven't really talked about that at all
SurvivorGracie: but I wouldn't think so
SurvivorGracie: I know there are some guys I've heard are better liked than others
Kdadams76: yeah
SurvivorGracie: *grin* you're on the "liked" list
Kdadams76: honestly we havn't talked about that either...but it's not my intentioin
Kdadams76: thank God for that! lol
SurvivorGracie: LOL
SurvivorGracie: it's not really my intention to do a pagonging either
SurvivorGracie: there are some guys I like more than some girls
SurvivorGracie: but shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Kdadams76: there are some girls i like more than some guys! =-O
SurvivorGracie: *grin*
SurvivorGracie: do you guys know who you're voting out?
Kdadams76: absolutely not
Kdadams76: it's a mad house over here
Kdadams76: LOL
SurvivorGracie: for the record .. I"m guessing Tony .. just based on how often I see him online
Kdadams76: actually no, but i don't want to give too much information...i'm sure you understand
Kdadams76: at least until we know we can work together
SurvivorGracie: totally understand
SurvivorGracie:
Kdadams76: this game is too much for my nerves, and it's just a game
Kdadams76: lol
SurvivorGracie: lol ... it's been mostly fun
SurvivorGracie: other than Mitch *makes ugly face*
Kdadams76: lol....that seems to be a commen feeling around these parts
SurvivorGracie: I was so thrilled when you guys handed him his ass
Kdadams76: LOLOL
Kdadams76: what an expression
SurvivorGracie: lol
SurvivorGracie: yeah .... but somehow appropriate in his case
Kdadams76: i didn't get that vibe from him when i talked to him...what was the issue?
SurvivorGracie: the very first night of the game .. he asked me if we could work together
SurvivorGracie: and I'm like okay
SurvivorGracie: and then he starts "testing" me .. and TELLING me he's testing me.
SurvivorGracie: but at the same time .. he's doing the same exact thing to at least two other girls
SurvivorGracie: and the next day when I talked to him
Kdadams76: testing you for what?
SurvivorGracie: he's like .. "we're the bestest of friends"
SurvivorGracie: to see if I'd tell anyone what he was telling me.
SurvivorGracie: and when I didn't ...
SurvivorGracie: *mostly because what he said was stupid as heck*
SurvivorGracie: we were the best friends in the world
SurvivorGracie: and
SurvivorGracie: one of the girls told someone something that he said
SurvivorGracie: and he was all like this is such a betrayal of friendship
SurvivorGracie: and it was like only the 3rd day of the game
SurvivorGracie: and he was insisting to have one of the girls home phone numbers so he could call her
SurvivorGracie: and hash it out
SurvivorGracie: and mainly started stalking her
Kdadams76: hmmmm
SurvivorGracie: and everytime he was online .. he would start telling me how I was his best friend in the whole world
SurvivorGracie: I just wanted to tell him to get a life
SurvivorGracie: know what I mean
SurvivorGracie: it just got creepy as heck
Kdadams76: yeah that is creepy
Kdadams76: eeewww
SurvivorGracie: one of the girls was seriously considering dropping from the game if he stayed
SurvivorGracie: she was seriously starting to get nervous about him
Kdadams76: i've heard that before....don't get me wrong, I voted for Mitch for that reason, but i'm just wondering how threatening can someone be over AIM
SurvivorGracie: well .. when you think about the iformation in our profiles
SurvivorGracie: and he knew where she lived
SurvivorGracie: and TALKED about where she lived
Kdadams76: oh i never thought about that
SurvivorGracie: that starts to make you nervous
Kdadams76: i guess that could be scary
SurvivorGracie: *nods* I'll tell you a secret about my profile
SurvivorGracie: a friend of mine told me to not ever use where I'm really from ...
SurvivorGracie: I'm not really from Sandusky
SurvivorGracie: but I know the area really well .. and live close
SurvivorGracie: so .. for this vote though . you're safe right?
Kdadams76: i hope
Kdadams76: :-\
SurvivorGracie: hmmm .. you better be .. or I'll kick some boy butt!
Kdadams76: awww
Kdadams76: but you never can feel too confident in this game you know?
SurvivorGracie: lol .. yeah .. I know
Kdadams76: its like you wonder if there's this whole big game going on around you that you don't know about it
SurvivorGracie: omg .. I know ... I just pretty much assume there is
SurvivorGracie: *grin* and keep going about my merry way
SurvivorGracie: Ashlee was really upset when we voted her out
Kdadams76: was she?
SurvivorGracie: If I get voted out .. I'll just wish everyone else good luck, ya know?
SurvivorGracie: the game is supposed to be fun
SurvivorGracie: yeah ... she tried really hard to get people to change their votes
SurvivorGracie: and people just weren't doing it
Kdadams76: that's gotta be a hard situation to be in thought
Kdadams76: *knock on wood
SurvivorGracie: yeah ... I felt bad for her ... because I told her people weren't changing votes and she was going to go .. but she didn't want to believe me ...
SurvivorGracie: and then was upset when it happened
SurvivorGracie: I mean .. there wasn't any sense lying to her about how the vote was going to go
Kdadams76: yeah
Kdadams76: i try to be honest with people, and then not talk too much at the same time
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. I think the only person I really lied to was Stephanie
SurvivorGracie: and well .. lol .. I guess that turned out okay seeing as HE wasn;t really Stephanie at all
Kdadams76: well turnabout's fair play on that one
SurvivorGracie: he was pulling hard to get me voted out !
SurvivorGracie: *grin* so I didn't feel to bad about lying about voting for "Steph"
Kdadams76: why you of all people??
SurvivorGracie: said that I was in charge or some such garbage
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I'm NEVER in charge
Kdadams76: hahaha
SurvivorGracie: and by that time things had gotten out that Steph was giving Mitch information
SurvivorGracie: which pretty much sealed Steph's fate
Kdadams76: after he'd been voted out?
SurvivorGracie: no .. during the game
Kdadams76: ahhhh
Kdadams76: do you think we'll merge before 10?
SurvivorGracie: how many left now?
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I can't keep track
Kdadams76: ummm
Kdadams76: 13? 12 after monday
SurvivorGracie: hmm .. I'm gonna bet we merge at traditional 10
SurvivorGracie: lol ... I'm surprised we haven't had a switch or anything!
Kdadams76: i know
SurvivorGracie: the biggest surprise is no surprise at all
Kdadams76: i had a feeling we weren't because they've always had a switch on the previous seasons
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. and most games it seems like try to make their's have the most twists or something
SurvivorGracie: I sorta like a straight forward game
Kdadams76: yeah me too
Kdadams76: although i would have liked a switch this time around
SurvivorGracie: yeah ... I think lots of people would
Kdadams76: oh well
SurvivorGracie: lol .. keeps us guessing
Kdadams76: and stressing
Kdadams76: my goal is to just not get voted out....LOL
Kdadams76: i don't care if i win or not, just not get voted out
SurvivorGracie: would be nice
Kdadams76: have you ever really stopped to think just how difficult this game is?
SurvivorGracie: I try not to!
SurvivorGracie: I mean
SurvivorGracie: 18 of us started the game
SurvivorGracie: but only 1 person can actually win
Kdadams76: i know....i think this might actually be more difficult than the real show....you NEVER know what's going on behind the scenes, but in the show at least they know when couples or small groups venture off to talk
SurvivorGracie: very true
SurvivorGracie: good point
SurvivorGracie: and online ,.. you can be actually talking to three or four people at once .. and they won't know that
Kdadams76: right
Kdadams76: i bet that no one in this game knows that we talk as much as we do
SurvivorGracie: probably not .. I don't share that information
Kdadams76: me either
SurvivorGracie: I think I talk to you the most of any of the guys
Kdadams76: i think's a toss up between you and Jenne, but you more probably
Kdadams76: are you and jenne pretty tight?
SurvivorGracie: well ... we talk a bunch ... and I really like her
SurvivorGracie: we don't have any deals though
Kdadams76: cool
Kdadams76: i really honestly do like everyone that's left in this game
SurvivorGracie: same here!
Kdadams76: but i don't trust everyone that's left in this game
SurvivorGracie: lol
SurvivorGracie: same here
Kdadams76: i really only have one etched in stone ally here on this side
Kdadams76: i may be telling you too much....lol
SurvivorGracie: that's good to have at least one person you can trust
Kdadams76: yeah
SurvivorGracie: *grin* and you can never tell me too much
SurvivorGracie: in fact
SurvivorGracie: tell me MORE
SurvivorGracie: *giggle*
Kdadams76: devil's advocate
Kdadams76: LOL
SurvivorGracie: *waves pendant in front of your eyes* .. you're feeling sleepy ... very sleepy
Kdadams76: i'll wait til we get to play closer together as a team, that is if i'm still here!
SurvivorGracie: now ... tell me everything you know
SurvivorGracie: you WILL still be here!
SurvivorGracie: I say so
Kdadams76: well then tell tribe arrow that!
SurvivorGracie: *grin* and just ask "Steph" .. I'm in charge right?
SurvivorGracie: *grin* I'll tell Arrow !
Kdadams76: cause see...if i miss challenges like we had last night..i'm gonig to be so bummed
SurvivorGracie: aw ... *hugs*

Kdadams76: hey
taylorserveshard: hey
Kdadams76: did you get my message last night?
taylorserveshard: no
taylorserveshard: wait
Kdadams76: i think you may be right
taylorserveshard: hold up
taylorserveshard: yes I did
taylorserveshard: anyway
taylorserveshard: go ahead
Kdadams76: there's just something weird in the way Lucas was gungho against Ryan and then all of a sudden wanting to save him....its almost as if they are playing this off and trying to make people think they are really enemies when they are not
Kdadams76: what do you think?
taylorserveshard: maybe
taylorserveshard: but on the other hand
taylorserveshard: more than likely we will merge or do something after this vote
Kdadams76: but i'm afraid for this vote
taylorserveshard: play it cool for right now
taylorserveshard: be calm
taylorserveshard: let me do a little more digging
Kdadams76: i'm almost ready to take out Lucas cause there is just something about him
Kdadams76: last night at about 2 i ryan was online then lucas came on and went invisible
taylorserveshard: I don't know
taylorserveshard: just be careful
taylorserveshard: listen if Rami is taken out
taylorserveshard: that leaves lucas and ryan with big steve
taylorserveshard: we have tony
taylorserveshard: that gives us a tie vote
Kdadams76: and lucas has votes against him
taylorserveshard: and I think ties in this game are based on past votes
taylorserveshard: lucas has those
Kdadams76: so what if Rami is not taken out this time around??
Kdadams76: what if it's me or you....lol
taylorserveshard: it won't be because lucas would want to take tony out i think
Kdadams76: i wish that i had just agreed for ryan last night and then see what lucas would have done
Kdadams76: speak of the devil
taylorserveshard: well lol
taylorserveshard: ryan told me he wouldn't vote for me last night
Kdadams76: he told me you said the same
taylorserveshard: lol I did
taylorserveshard: what did he say about it
Kdadams76: hang on phone
Kdadams76: i just msgd him and he was all up on my jock on who was being targeted for next TC
Kdadams76: and I told him it wasn't him so don't worry but i'm not saying anymore
Kdadams76: he told me that you told him you would never vote for him
taylorserveshard: ahh
taylorserveshard: well I didn't say that
taylorserveshard: I said I wouldn't vote for you this tc
taylorserveshard: but he doesn't have to know that
Kdadams76: and i won't tell him that
Kdadams76: lol
Kdadams76: we so should've won last night
taylorserveshard: i know
Kdadams76: so we should stick with Rami monday?
taylorserveshard: for right now

[Kyle]

Kdadams76: gamewise or lifewise?
ryansurvivor1984: either or
Kdadams76: nothing new in life....except i finished my novel but i already told you that
Kdadams76: i haven't played the game today at all...i just bummed around the apt all day long
ryansurvivor1984: yeah you are crazy man lol
Kdadams76: hehe
Kdadams76: too much ambition for you
ryansurvivor1984: yup
Kdadams76: i'm gonna start on a play next
ryansurvivor1984: holy smokes when will I be seeing these on the shelf or on broadway?
Kdadams76: man do i wish!
Kdadams76: i'm going to self publish the play i wrote in the fall and market it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.com
ryansurvivor1984: wow best of luck to you that's so cool
ryansurvivor1984: I loved acting in high school
ryansurvivor1984: haven't done much since then though
Kdadams76: me too...but i think i like the production side of it more
ryansurvivor1984: that's good that you found something you love to do
Kdadams76: so what all do you love to do besides acting
ryansurvivor1984: i really enjoy trying new things
ryansurvivor1984: mainly sports
ryansurvivor1984: i'm in a volleyball, bowling and curling league right now
ryansurvivor1984: and i love planning events as stupid as it may sound
Kdadams76: no that's not stupid...i do too
Kdadams76: i was president of student body in college and i planned all sorts of stuff
ryansurvivor1984: cool... I actually have an interview for a summer co-ordinator position this week
Kdadams76: hey that's really cool
ryansurvivor1984: i really hop i get it
ryansurvivor1984: hope*
Kdadams76: well i'll hope for you too
ryansurvivor1984: thanks
ryansurvivor1984: this is nice
ryansurvivor1984: talking about something other than the game for once
Kdadams76: yeah i agree
Kdadams76: i'm so tired of strategy and paranoia
ryansurvivor1984: me too
ryansurvivor1984: i've decided that i will just hope to make the jury and if it doesn't work out i will get over it someday
ryansurvivor1984: lol
Kdadams76: lol...that's my first goal too
Kdadams76: my ultimate goal is to just not get voted out...LOL
ryansurvivor1984: yeah that would be great
Kdadams76: i just want to play until the end...i don't want to miss out on anything
ryansurvivor1984: yeah that's why i want to make the jury
ryansurvivor1984: that and i get to have a part in the final say
Kdadams76: yeah
Kdadams76: that would be cool to still be in the game and not have to be paranoid
ryansurvivor1984: but what would survivor be with out it
Kdadams76: right
Kdadams76: have you ever thought about just how difficult this game really is?
ryansurvivor1984: yup
ryansurvivor1984: especially online
ryansurvivor1984: its way tougher because there is absolute no trust
ryansurvivor1984: because i have no clue who all talks to whom
Kdadams76: well the thing is....you can't know who's talking to who and when
Kdadams76: at least on the show you always know when 2 or smaller groups go off to talk
ryansurvivor1984: exactly
ryansurvivor1984: this way you only have a guess of who is together
ryansurvivor1984: i don't want to put you in the middle...
ryansurvivor1984: but if you hear that i'm the target will you tell me so that i can try and save myself so that you don't have to look like your connected to me in any way
Kdadams76: yes i will....and i think i've already done that which is why i was so paranoid last night
ryansurvivor1984: you tried to defend me?
Kdadams76: yes
Kdadams76: then they asked me why
ryansurvivor1984: thanks
ryansurvivor1984: i don't get it why people that i barely talk to think that i'm such a huge threat
ryansurvivor1984: or why they want to get rid of me
Kdadams76: will you tell me the honest to God truth about something???
Kdadams76: honest to God, up front
ryansurvivor1984: yes
Kdadams76: do you and Lucas have some sort of scheme behind the scenes going on and just making it like you archrivals?
ryansurvivor1984: no
ryansurvivor1984: we originally said that him rami and i would form a voting block but since you and taylor came along he really hasn't made any effort to talk to me
ryansurvivor1984: i don't think he talks much to rami either
ryansurvivor1984: just you and taylor
Kdadams76: and that is the honest truth?
ryansurvivor1984: yes
ryansurvivor1984: i really and truly don't want to win this game that much
ryansurvivor1984: i trust you and i am being 100% honest with you
Kdadams76: ok....that's what had me paranoid last night....Lucas just raised some red flags to me and taylor
ryansurvivor1984: about me
Kdadams76: well....he's always been so gungho, Ryan needs to be next...yada yada yada, then when i defended you last night, he was right behind me in agreement
Kdadams76: then taylor messaged me saying something funny is going on
ryansurvivor1984: i swear to God that nothing between me and Lucas is going on
ryansurvivor1984: I pretend that I am going to be one of his loyal followers asking who he thinks should go and what not but that's it
ryansurvivor1984: he likes to be able to control the game
Kdadams76: yeah, well he's not going to
Kdadams76: how tight are you with rami?
ryansurvivor1984: tight enough why
Kdadams76: because i don't think there's any way we're going to be able to save him monday
Kdadams76: BUT
Kdadams76: his leaving is going to open the door to get rid of Lucas and Taylor is on board
ryansurvivor1984: so why does taylor want to wait?
Kdadams76: well i'll ask him....but i think just cause he's nervous....same reason i was the other night
ryansurvivor1984: i see
Kdadams76: we'll see as it gets closer to TC
ryansurvivor1984: ya for sure
ryansurvivor1984: thanks for backing me last night that took guts
Kdadams76: well i told you i'm with you
Kdadams76: and i hope this proves it
Kdadams76: not htat i thought you were doubting
ryansurvivor1984: thanks
Kdadams76: but i have to apologize that i was doubting you last night
ryansurvivor1984: thats fine
ryansurvivor1984: like you said if you don't have doubts throughout this game than you being oblivious to the game
Kdadams76: right
ryansurvivor1984: I'm just glad you talked to me about it
ryansurvivor1984: because we all know that within the next day or two so much stuff will be said
Kdadams76: i'm trying to play this game as honestly as possible
Kdadams76: and make friends at the same time
Kdadams76: i guess that's how i found myself the middle man
ryansurvivor1984: if you ever have doubts ask me I will be honest... because when ever I think strategy I have you in mind so I won't have anything to hid
ryansurvivor1984: back
Kdadams76: cool, and the same goes for you too
ryansurvivor1984: i will don't worry
ryansurvivor1984: because the only way for them to get at either of us is to say things that we haven't said
ryansurvivor1984: it worked for mitch
Kdadams76: right
Kdadams76: well taylor and i have talked a bit about Lucas today and taylor is having his doubts
ryansurvivor1984: good he too is finally seeing the real picture
ryansurvivor1984: *fingers crossed
Kdadams76: yes he is, cause Lucas is all over the map
ryansurvivor1984: ya i would be happy voting him out for starting all of this crap
ryansurvivor1984: or tony because it sickens me that he is still around
Kdadams76: i actually like tony....i think he's in the game, just really busy
Kdadams76: but i don't like him enough to defend him
ryansurvivor1984: yeah i see
ryansurvivor1984: i haven't had the chance to really talk to the guy
ryansurvivor1984: if he's gonna be around for a while i'd like to get the chance
Kdadams76: i have just a little bit
Kdadams76: he's pretty cool so you should if you get the chance
ryansurvivor1984: again thank you for all your help its nice to have someone that i feel like i can trust
Kdadams76: no thank you for yours
ryansurvivor1984: but i'm gonna head to bed... got volleyball playoffs starting in the morning
ryansurvivor1984: np
Kdadams76: alright...i'll talk to you later
ryansurvivor1984: good night
Kdadams76: night
