We're back at camp after voting Coach out, and the vote was unanimous. So clearly Ashley was just playing Coach and even if Carter and I had voted differently, nothing would have changed. Perhaps it is a good thing that the vote was unanimous - we're still most probably the next two to go if we lose, but if we are to merge before we lose again, maybe these girls will go for Taytay vs Coron rather than Girls vs Boys, in which case we could make it a little further. It's important we don't lose any more challenges though, otherwise we are powerless to do anything while they remove us from the board one by one.

Jeff made an announcement and once he made it, I quickly found the link to a puzzle which I solved and I was instructed to determine who a series of eyes belong to in order to gain access to what I assume is a very valuable Hidden Immunity Idol. However, I literally have no clue who any of the seven eyes belong to. My original thought was that it is the seven members of this tribe, but I've compared to a million photos of each and I can't find a match other than the first one potentially being Ashley Underwood. My other thought was that it could be people from the previous season of this game, but again none of them really look like a match to me, except Tasha could possibly be the fifth eye. There's gotta be some sort of pattern to this, it can't just be random because it would be impossible to trawl through hundreds of castaways to find seven eyes. I tried my tribe, the other tribe, everything I can think of, but nothing fits. Plus the eyes are all black and white and that does not remotely help me. I am not going to be able to solve this - and who knows, it might be solved already - so I think I'll need to find Carter around and see if he can help me and maybe we can decode this together.

So I figured out this much:
1. Ashley Massaro 2. Brandon Bellinger 3. ? 4. ? 5. Christine Shields Markoski 6. Andrew Savage 7. Brady Finta
And then Carter and I worked on looking for the remainder, but I've been through every single person in 15+ seasons and I couldn't find them yet, and I'm burned out and need sleep. So I left all the information with Carter and a new clue will be released soon, so I'm hoping he finds the Hidden Immunity Idol while I'm asleep, or we can find it after I wake up.
It was a good day's work but I'm disappointed not to have the idol and for it to potentially be taken. I don't mind Carter having it, since I would've played it on him if the situation called for it anyway, so hopefully he would do the same. I just hope a girl doesn't get it.

Carter couldn't get the idol while I wasn't here and now we've both been sent to a new El Nido tribe with Richard and Natalie.
The negatives are that the idol is beyond our reach and we have no clue whether or not another one will be available over here and even if it is, I don't want to spend another six hours matching eyes again. Not good at all.
The positives are that Carter and I are both safe over here and at worst it could be a tie. Carter already spoke to Richard about sticking together and voting Natalie out if we lose, which sounds good.
But Natalie seems very anti-woman right now, and she seems like the most likely girl to vote against the girls, so ideally I'd like her to stick around as she might be inclined to vote with us more than any other girl, especially as she was banished over Rudy.
Ideally, I want to win this challenge and force both of those tribes to take each other out.

We lost the challenge and Carter wants to take out Natalie because her position in the game is more unpredictable than Richard's. I agree with that - I don't want to vote her out, she's cool and I would have liked the opportunity to play with her - but at the end of the day, somebody has got to go, and considering the male/female ratio right now, we don't have the luxury of being able to turn on one another. Even more annoyingly, the Taytay girls won the challenge, so I'm willing to bet a lot of money that Rudy is leaving tonight as well, which would mean only Carter and I remain of the original foursome that Jon established. We'd like to think that Richard would be with us too, but it's entirely plausible that he has deals with the Coron girls to save his own skin at our expense. The plus side is that it should be a straightforward vote tonight, but the downside is that we're going into a merge heavily outnumbered and it's gonna be an entirely backs to the wall fight.

I am so torn on what to do. Natalie makes a fair argument - she can get more information out of the girls and potentially have more inside information to be able to find and exploit cracks over there.
With Rudy most likely gone from Coron, going in 8-2 rather than 7-3 makes Carter and me look less threatening.
It is a big risk either way, and I think I will be conflicted right up until the moment I walk up to the parchment...
(Out of character: Plus she's playing as Natalie Bolton, only like my 3rd favourite castaway ever, so I am inclined to like her automatically.)

Wonder what's going on over at Coron - we're assuming it's a tie, and I'm channelling energy to Rudy and hoping he can pull through to give us a chance.
