ROUND #1 Hello, hosts Brett and Lex! My name is Eliza Orlins and welcome to my lovely confessional area. I'll be sure to keep this updated almost every single day to tell to you guys what the hell is going on with my strategic and social game. I really want to play a really game. This is actually going to be my first online reality game and I hope that I really can show my true potential and leave a huge mark on this season. I'm bringing my A-game and I'm sure no one, NO ONE, is going to come between me and the title of Sole Survivor. Also, I'm not going to be a hero and play for the good guys to win at the end. NOT AT ALL. I'm here to be a bitch and own this game like I'm the star of the show and the other 17 players are just the extras. So, you better better write ELIZA ORLINS on the 1 million dollar check, because I will outwit, outplay and outlast all of my opponents! |

Since I live in a different time zone, I'm probably not going to participate in the first Immunity Challenge. It definitely sucks for me because I'm already the replacement, which puts in a very hard spot. I like to show to every single one that I really deserve to be here, playing this game. So, missing the first challenge of the season is probably my second strike.  The only thing that I can probably do right now is make sure that I'm a nice person and that people want me to stick with them in their tribes for the next few weeks. And, of course, keep my fingers crossed in the hopes that this challenge will only choose the team captains, and not who's going to Tribal Council and who's not, because if that's the case tonight, I'm completely screwed. I've already talked with Michael, Bob, John and Brandon and they really seem like good people. I hope they liked me as well and they decided to keep me for a little longer, so I can definitely show my true potential and what I'm really capable of doing. From these four people that I've talked with, the nicest one was John, which is odd, because he's karma is already negative. I don't know what's up with that, but I think I better be careful when I talk with him, because if it's between him and me, I'll do whatever I can to throw him under the bus and survive another couple of days. I'm sorry, dude, but that's how I roll.  Here's what we talked about already: See, just the usual "How are you?" stuff, but actually that was actually more than I talked with the other ones. I hope John is well-connected, so can I ride his coattails for the first few days while I gain everyone's trusts and friendships. Of course I'm not going to be like Natalie White in Samoa and ride everyone's coattails until the very end of the game, but I need to have a bodyguard while I can't fully prove to the rest of my tribemates that I'm worthy of staying in the Sausage Island. Actually, I do hope that I can prove myself really quickly, because being someone's sidekick is my least favorite position of all. |

Also, let's see the conversations that I had with the guys today so you can see how small talk-ish this day is full. Seriously, I didn't have a good talk with anyone at this point and I hope this is going to chanve very, very soon.
First, let's start with Michael:
And now Bob:
See, nothing with substance at all. I'll try to talk with ladies tomorrow and see if I pull off someone, because, you know, I really love a girls alliance. ;D

It looks like I was just overly-dramatic yesterday... Or was I? I really thought the worst case scenario and was really worried that I was going to end up going to Redemption Island right away. Luckily, the first Immunity Challenge was only for deciding who was going to be the captains of each of the two tribes. Ashley and Judd both won the right to choose each of their tribes and the lovely Ash picked me for her tribe, which is a major surprise for me, because we never really talked... Actually, we didn't talk AT ALL. Anyway, she picked me for her tribe, CALUA. Let's take a look at my beautiful tribemates: I really don't know if we're a strong tribe or not because I didn't see any of them perform in the past, but I hope that we can definitely kick some ass at the first Immunity Challenge and keep on doing that for the rest of the game. |

oh men your first org? Good Luck! Sausage Island 1 was my first. How will you overcome the late start as a replacement? What is your plan of attack to get ahead? Or do you not think you are at a disadvantage?

Or do you not think you are at a disadvantage? Thank you, Boston Rob! ;D How will you overcome the late start as a replacement? What is your plan of attack to get ahead? Or do you not think you are at a disadvantage?Actually, I really think that being a replacement is a big disadvantadge for me in this game because some of these people already have talked a lot with each other and already made some very, very important connections with each other. I don't think that it's going to make sure that I'm doomed for the rest of my days in this game, but I guess I can turn things around for me by being really social, talking to everyone in my tribe while making a personal connection with every single one of them, and giving my best effort in the next Immunity Challenge. I think I'll probably prevail in the end because I think I can throw some people under the bus to make sure that I have more days in this game and because I guess that I'm a good tribemate. I'm always positive and I'm always active, which is awesome in the early stages of the game. Nobody wants a lazy player as a teammate during the pre-merge, don't you all agree? Different than last night, I'm going to be here for the start of the Immunity Challenge and I'll definitely try to give my best shot at the challenge for all the 24 hours that it's going to last, so I hope that I can win this one, prove to the rest of Calua that I deserve to be here and stay away from Tribal Council as long as possible. Well, my fingers are already crossed hoping that I can stay in this game for a long, long, long time. |

Well fought by both tribes! Some of you worked together really well...some others fell just a bit short.
Remember, you only need to win two of these match-ups to win.
Whoever wins this one will take it. Both groups did great. But one edged out the other...
Mahtava wins Immunity!
Excellent job Mahtava. You guys are all safe for another few days.
Calua, well fought, but you fell just a bit short this time. I'll see you guys at Tribal Council tonight, where you'll send the first member of this game to Redemption Island. Good luck!
We just lost the first real Immunity Challenge and it just sucks a lot. I think I did a pretty good job for my team, but I guess it wasn't enough to win against the other tribe. Except for one team that really, really sucked, they dominated the challenge and it makes me sad, because they now have a lot of momentum going on for them. At least, I could prove to everyone in my tribe that I really deserve to be here. I was one of the people who had the biggest number of posts for my tribe and the best one out of everyone in my team, which was: I feel like Candice did the best she could, because she was posting during all of the 30 minutes, but Ibrehem was just missing. He was on the boards and he was on AIM at the time, but he just wasn't posting any freaking thing on our thread, and it absolutely pissed me off. He's already on my black list because of that and I'll watch out for him, because I can't trust him at all after this. |

Going to Tribal Council is not a happy or an exciting thing to do, but it's what I gotta do right now because we just lost the first Immunity Challenge of the season.
At first, I got really scared because I thought everyone in my tribe was active and I got all paranoid thinking that they might be going after me only because I wasn't here for the Captains challenge and because I'm a replacement, but it turns out that I'm wrong. Everyone is really nice to me and I feel like I'm finally fitting in on my tribe, you know? I've already talked with everyone except for Mikayla, who's always away on AIM, and Christa, who's just MIA.
After we lost the challenge, I tried to talk with every single person from my tribe that I could because I wanted to know where everyone's heads were at.
First, I had a quick talk with Jenna:
Then I started talking with Candice:
After that, I talked with Bob:
It looks like I'm really the most paranoid person to ever play this game because Christa didn't even do the first two challenges and her total post count is 10. Candice has a point about her probably not being able to be here in their for neither of those challenges, but you know? What can I do? Propose to vote out someone who really brought their A-game to the challenges to save someone with only the potential to be a good tribemate? Hell to the no!
So, I'm voting for Christa in this Tribal Council and I hope everyone does that, because I want to have a strong and united tribe to kick some of those asses from the Mahtava tribe. Those inactives Parvati and Osten need to go before anyone in Calua gets voted out again.

By the way, why the hell people just gave me a negative karma? In my opinion, having a 0 karma is bad because that means you're bland and not that memorable, but I'm just surprised and curious to find out why someone already gave a bad karma.  |
