Previously on iSurv1vor:
- Both tribes went into battle to try and take each other down in an effort to prove who really wants to be here and fight it out! Everyone got battered up and bruised, with people being targeted for attacks one after another!
- With the challenge lasting all night, Al-Salt immediately began to jump the gun on each person, hitting people right after another, which allowed them to win immunity just before the sun came up, sending Amman to Tribal Council.
- Individual Immunity was also on the line for the person who scored the highest on the losing, with Desiree being safe from Tribal Council once again this week.
- Ultimately, Ricky and the majority of the tribe made a main decision in getting rid of Fabian, even though he had contributed to the challenge. They all let him know ahead of time, and voted him out, sending him to the Cemetery where the final Redemption challenge will take place.
- 12 are left, who will be voted out tonight?

Carlos - He is going to be a hard person to get rid of this time around, now that he is combined with Jay. With the thought of targeting Stephanie, I hope people see her as someone who does not deserve to go so soon. Carlos and Jay are only targeting her because she isn't afraid to say what she has to. I hope he does not get into the mind of Desiree, she should be smart enough to realize what is going on! I'm extremely shocked that Carlos is willing to give Ricky a chance (even if it's fake) especially since he was mad at the fact Ricky made him vulnerable at that one Tribal Council. He is going to be a huge threat during the merge!
Desiree - I think she should stick with the Amman people and continue to work with Izzy. I have not heard her speak much of Izzy in a while? Are they drifting? I hope she does not give into Carlos, that would be the most disruptive thing she could do to herself! I am very worried about her because this is the episode that she got eliminated in during Tibet, so I hope she sticks around also. It would suck to have that happen to her, so she needs to be willing to not just jump ship and hope for the best on everything. I am glad that she stuck with majority for the Fabian vote, but that makes me wonder what she will do for a finals situation in the future, if she continues. Doubting Reynolds at this point in the game will just make her more paranoid; if he gives her a REAL reason to doubt him, then she has one, but it is not a good idea to assume something that may not be true. She seems to be in an alright spot for now!
Dylan - I can maybe do a Desiree-length confessional, but a 14min one? YIKES!
Izzy - She has surprised me so much this season. I am not only happy that she has made merge, but she has made no negative impacts on anyone since she has started this game, other then people calling her out on her silent behavior at times or how she comes off as aloof, but that isn't anything warranting importance. If she manages to stick to Ricky, she will do well, but the fact that she is considering to talk to Carlos scares me! Desi and Izzy; my girls! DON'T LET THE MAN TAKE YOU!!!
Jay - Nothing for Episode 8 yet.
Kate - Nothing for Episode 8 yet.
Mandy - Nothing for Episode 8 yet.
Nicole - I feel bad for her because she is actually telling the truth. She never did start the idea about the hidden immunity idol clue, it was Ricky and yet she is being blamed for the entire situation because Ricky mentioned the fact that all the coaches got a idol clue. I am literally so surprised that everyone is telling Ricky everything Nicole is saying / doing, because some people think he is such a huge threat but they'll go and run to him anyway? People should give Nicole SOME kind of time, because she has had an extremely rocky road in this season and making it this far, she deserves a chance to play the game without someone like Ricky blowing up her game, cutting any opportunity to work with people but yet still saying he is fine with her? I hope she can figure out SOMETHING because that entire situation is a whole bunch of fucked up.
Patia - Nothing for Episode 8 yet.
Reynolds - I think he is in a really good position. He has Steph/Desiree/Izzy/Ricky/Patia and then as far as everyone else, no one really has said anything about him. If he starts making multiple deals then that might set of an alarm, so he needs to be careful with how he approaches that situation.
Ricky - I think Travis will wind up flipping on Ricky because he knows that he has other options to run to and Travis already realizes that Ricky is a huge threat if he gets closer to the finals. Ricky is a rollercoaster when it comes to relationships with people. One day he can't deal with them, the next he is considering an alliance or effort to work with them, but you never really know just how many people Ricky has under his thumb. He is playing a social game stronger then anyone else in this entire game and people do have a reason to target him. I love him to death but there are other people I do want to see other then him make it to the end, no offense!
Stephanie - Sadly, she doesn't realize that Carlos is going to try and get rid of her alongside Jay. She is in several alliances and I think that will help her out for a while as long as no one is willing to flip on her. She has played a pretty well-balanced game and I am so happy that she is not afraid to stand up for herself during any situation. I hope that she does do better in challenges throughout this merge because I feel like people view her as this weak person but she has a really nice social game and a pretty all-around performance as far as everything else goes. I am hoping to see more from her !
Travis - Nothing for Episode 8 yet.
That is all for now.

ok, I change my mind about Travis - she shade he was throwing in his confessional about Dylan:
"He's subservient, even to a Nicole..."
I NEARLY DIED. so much shade. But I'm trying to see what others are seeing in the game, but honestly, I'm bored out of my mind watching Dylan's confessionals.

I LOVE Steph - love her love her love her. I'm ready for the battle royale between her and Jay/Carlos. I really want to see her maneuver through the first few rounds of the merge. I'm thinking Ricky will have the bigger bullseye and she'll be able to slide through - she's underestimated quite a bit, but listening to her talk in her confessionals definitely tells me that she has a firm grasp of the game and is fairly self aware of how she's being perceived by others. Jay, meh - of the 3 options to come back, he definitely will have the hardest time reintegrating back into the game. As Ricky said in one of his confessionals, he will always be perceived as shady and will have a target just because. He doesn't have the finesse that Carlos has with being fake as fuck and having people believe it. Considering the amount of shit that Ricky has stirred up, the plethora of options presenting themselves to him is out of this world. I'm watching the Ricky/Travis relationship closely - if Ricky falls for Travis' BS, I'll be floored, but it seems to be happening. Does Travis remind anyone else of the one and only miss Ginny game wise? (And I'm talking last season Ginny strategy) He's definitely overtly shifty and pretty loose with information and seen as someone that would flip, flop and turn on whoever to get to the top. He's missing that one solid ally to serve as a buffer. ok, I really should try to sleep since I have to be up in 2 hours for work.

I have to be up in 2 hours for work. That moment when you can't get enough of iSurv1vor. Same here, I'm in the same boat. RIP OUR LIVES AND EYES!
Here are my newest thoughts: Carlos - Really? Calling people ugly ass bitches is actually pretty hurtful, so I'd watch what you say. The idea of him possibly working in that seven person alliance to get rid of someone scares me, because that means of the people who actually deserve to stick around can potentially be voted out! He is in so many different alliances with people and jumping off and on to so many things, that he is so hard to keep track of. Desiree and Izzy need to not be so dumb and NOT side with him!!! Dylan - It is good to see him actually talking about some real strategy and what is going on with his game. I don't like the mumbling, but he has to understand that the reasoning people are targeting him and Nicole is because they are the relationship within the game. Everyone knows that they will work together no matter what it is they have to do. If what Dylan was saying was true regarding Ricky having that conversation with Travis and Carlos bringing up Nicole's name, I fear something might happen to her (I hope not). I'm actually pleasantly surprised that Dylan is speaking with Ricky, since Nicole described them as 'polar opposites who would never work together.' I hope that he figures something out and just manages to get Jay or Carlos out. Izzy - Talking about Final 5? Final3?! Girl, you have to get farther in the game before you can consider stuff like that, AND don't even think about bringing Ricky to the end! I love him, but that isn't a Final 3, that's a guaranteed win for him right there. His social game is so strong that he'll defeat both Izzy and Desiree at the end. I like how she is just socializing and talking to people and no one has any problems with her at all! She is such a genuinely sweet person and I think she has made a pretty nice seating in the game. Jay - He's a snake, not everyone else. He's always willing to break any alliance that he is in to get his way. He'll work with one person, but then turn on that person instantly if something else arises even of smaller value. Him going off on Ricky and talking about he isn't going to work with many of the people left will allow him to be easily isolated and HOPEFULLY he'll get voted out a second time for good! (Don't know if this is jury yet?) Kate - A REAL comeback story! She has managed to bounce back, originally being the intended target rounds before, only for her to have a saving grace. She is so strategic and I love how she is willing to disconnect from Ricky and make other friendships / relationships to balance out her game. One of the only few people I believe who actually can tell Ricky loves being in charge of others and won't let him walk all over her. I'm really proud of how she is playing and I can't wait to see more from her! (I hope she feels better soon, throat wise). Mandy - I am so hoping she does not go this round! She has been a target several rounds throughout this game but she has pushed through each round just by the small strings she has connected to her. She does not have that many relationships and needs to start building MORE to make herself stick around, otherwise she'll just be viewed simply as a "veteran that needs to go, because they had their time." Nicole - I can possibly see her being voted out by that seven person alliance that was brought up but I would hate to see her go, because I STILL believe that even though she has not made so many bonds in this game and didn't do so well with her coaching abilities, has SOMETHING left to offer to the game. She has almost given up so many times but right when she thinks she is good, people keep on throwing doubt at her. I hope the veterans stick to her, and Ricky gets the numbers to keep her around, otherwise we might see the first juror? (if it's that time). I feel bad for her because those exams are extremely important and she's had bad luck overall. I'm starting to adore her more. Patia - Nothing for Episode 8 yet. Reynolds - Not much else to say for him at the moment. He seems to be in a pretty good spot with the alliance of him/Steph and working with Ricky/Desiree/Izzy so I wonder what he'll do during the merge to make his game standout more! Ricky - You're so crazy! Why vote out one of your own numbers? You'll regret that choice if you do! You'll lose a number and then you are still not seeing that Jay and Carlos will come after you if you lose one more of your own, and you may think you are in their good graces (except Jay obviously, since he called him out), but you're really not! PLEASE MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE!!! Travis - Goodness! Calling it ALL out in all those confessionals! After hearing everything that I heard from him, he seems like he will be a key player during the merge for people, because he is so in the middle with everyone. From speaking to Ricky on and off with their relationship also being on/off, to him working with Carlos/Jay and potentially making moves, to Travis/Dylan and all of that. There are so many routes Travis could go, and he can easily start flipping this game immensely because he is good at creating chaos WHEN HE NEEDS TO. I love him so much and I can't to see what he does, because like he said, THERE'S A NEW BAD BITCH IN TOWN! That is all for now!

(And I'm talking last season Ginny strategy) He's definitely overtly shifty and pretty loose with information and seen as someone that would flip, flop and turn on whoever to get to the top. He's missing that one solid ally to serve as a buffer. I have liked Travis from the beginning AND he is still my fantasy pick. I am worried about him not having a buffer though. I would love for him to pair up with someone like Izzy or Steph. He's smart and he reads people well. I have wanted to just give him a hug watching his confessionals. The game is at a hard part and I just want to say "I have been there before Don't stop thinking, planning and talking!" I am so nervous and excited for the fireworks to start between Ricky and Nicole. Ricky is so sure that friendship will win out over game-play but will Nicole really be that naive? It seems like the entire game is ready to believe Ricky over her (even her own boyfriend!) even after Ricky's temper tantrum. I love Ricky and I hope it works out for him. Either way I can not wait.

Jay and Carlos are playing Desi like a fiddle and she's falling for it. So much for being a bitch and keeping her eye on the prize. She's fairly paranoid about missing a beat and fucking her game, but completely second guessing the more solid of relationships to possibly work with the people that will throw her to the wolves if she flipped with them.
I can see where people may think it's advantageous to flip and work with public enemies Jay/Carlos, but they're super hungry and willing to do anything... not the people I would trust to work with me for any extended period of time.
