I haven't had as much time to connect as I would like, but I think if I can be around for at least one more round, I can get to know everyone a bit more and show them why I think I deserve to make the jury phase. :)

I think if anyone is perceived as pushing to take out their bounty to get a prize, it could put a target on their own back. If someone's Bounty is to be eliminated, I think it'll have to happen organically.

I think the merge is where the individual game truly begins. This specific merge especially so, because there are so many relationships from the 3 different premerge tribal dynamics everyone had a chance to be apart of.

I had the chance to meet some really great people that I had not been a tribe with yet, so I can see why you think this is going to be a great endgame run. The inactives are gone...well I guess there is one left with that score from the challenge.

There's potential for at least 6 people to be immune tonight. I think it can also make it more cautious because people just want to survive this one vote to get to the jury phase.

Has that been a factor over the past hour or are things mostly the same?Nah. Anybody who's played with me knows that I'm a fearless badass who isn't afraid to say what she wants out of life. That's the same with or without immunity.
