Mo Rush delivering  So we basically have 3 Nostromo girls, the Noxy crew of 3 and the Babydoll/Selene/Kaylee trio, with Mo Rush making all of them think she's their 4th  This could be a big moment as she's easily the only one who's connected to every faction and so far is playing it beautifully. Her big worry is getting into the end game, so will be interesting to see how it plays out for her. |

Now that she's actually written a confessional and explained things instead of me having to guess from PMs, yes, I agree  Took her long enough!! |

Okay, so either Xena is misinterpreting the advantage rules, or I am. She just told Claire that the person will be taken out of TC after votes are final, but I thought they'd be taken out at the start of TC? If it's after votes are final, anyone without a preference list for votes would get a self vote if they voted that person, right? Although same would happen if it's at the start and someone is just not in attendance. But if it's announced at the start then everyone would have time to PM and scramble, which makes it a lot weaker.

Noxy winning when that was who the Nostromos wanted to vote out  It may end up being Xena first then? I don't think she'll use her advantage to save herself.  Doesn't seem like all the Sulacos are going to team up here either, thanks to Kaylee hating Xena. And in general being dismissive to all the outsiders. That's a great way to win.  She's just playing for Selene to win at this point anyway, her confessional pretty much said that. Mother Russia is making both sides of that 6 feel confident they're in the numbers when they get down to 7, so they might stick it out until then and get rid of the outsiders? I hope not though. I haven't been keeping up to date with PMs this weekend so I'm not entirely sure what's happening, just guessing. T-X saying she would want to get Alice and Jess out is interesting, I thought she would be with them all the way. But I guess her only real loyalty was to Cam. |

So seems like Babydoll could be getting chopped here. The Nostromo girls are just working this Sulaco divide beautifully. And with Mo Rush alongside them they can just pick one off and then the other from the divided factions.
Big question is who they go for at the second vote tonight. I get the feeling Noxeema would be their target but unless Alice or Claire snag immunity (assuming Babydoll is gone) then Nox is immune again. In which case, maybe Xena goes? Or even Claire?
I'd think if they can cut the two they want and keep the Xena/Kaylee feud going, it best serves them to take control at F7... but then what does Mo Rush do? I'm not sure she'll still to the Nostromos and may very well scoop up Selene/Kaylee/Claire and get Xena to reconcile and finally take out the Nostromos after tonight. She does consider Selene to be close to her and she is working to keep Xena with her.
I feel we're on this short term trajectory and the Nostromos are falling into too secure a position.

Ooh, Xena is already talking to Babydoll about the Nostromos... can Sulaco put their differences aside, though?

Yeah Babydoll knows she's a target here, if she can convince Selene/Kaylee to flip back to the blues we could see a Nostromo gone here tonight But considering how poorly those three have done keeping the rest of Sulaco on side, who knows if it could really happen? They might just go with green anyway. |

Surely that will show Kaylee/Selene they have no hope siding with the green girls beyond this vote.

Looks like Sulaco may be coming together, but whether it's too late now or not, I guess time will tell. Kaylee has started reaching out to Xena and Claire, I think at Selene's pushing. Xena definitely doesn't want Nostromo eeking through while Claire is thinking similar. The Nostromo girls sense it and are hoping TX is targeted if one of them takes a hit.
The glue here might be Selene, even though she's been targeting Noxeema for some time. Her allies or at least one seems likely to bite it tonight, so if she can get the Sulacos back working together (and I'm not including Mo Rush who is the chaos agent here) then at worst it'd be 4-4 at Final 8. With the advantage in Xena's hands (pending the one hidden in the Final 8 challenge).

Lol I know, I saw that message from Selene to Kaylee saying that all these girls are telling her that Kaylee has completely shut them down, like you could just tell she was wondering why the fuck Kaylee would close off their options like that But yeah, I'm not sure if Sulaco will come together in time. Especially with Noxy not being online until right before TC, if at all. The Nostromo girls have just been playing both sides so much that it SHOULD be clear you can't trust them. If all 3 survive here then well done to them for pulling it off. |

I adore Babydoll, but she knows perfectly well that her name has been thrown around by the greens so if she doesn't do whatever she can to get the blues to unite, well...nobody but herself to blame really. She may be saved by a few of the other girls pushing for Kaylee over her (which is my best case scenario), but that would be more due to Kaylee's poor play than anything Babydoll did herself.

Whoever survives out of Selene/Kaylee/Babydoll will at least know where they stand. That would make them all team up to take a green out next TC.

Is it harsh to say that these players are dumb for taking 3 green to the final 8 and for not putting their differences aside to at least weaken that core 3, the only alliance in the game that is stable.

Lol, I called this pre-merge. Sulaco are a mess and the Nostromo girls are smart (and as much as TX is good value, she's really benefiting from Alice and Jessica's talent in this).
Looks like Xena/Claire are discussing it and just gambling on Selene voting with them at 8. Why would Selene even bother with them, I don't know. But Selene is probably the most rational player to keep around.
If the Nostromos get past this vote... hooo boy, they should be able to blow shit out of the water the next vote unless Xena actually uses her advantage, but I get the feel she's saving it for like F6 or something.

Nostromo girls seem to want to take out Claire on the second vote... that would be interesting.
