So figured I would share some thoughts now that I have been in jury for a bit.
1) Burnie and Dorothy should get over their Julia hatred Boner. I posted in Jury my thoughts on the situation. They didn't hide their relationships well and that would make anyone nervous.
2) We are at top 5 and this is where I am leaning in terms of voting
High chance of getting my vote:
1) Tim: He is growing and peaking at the right time. Not only that but he was so unassuming and non-threatening that no one saw this side of Tim coming. I think that is the signs of a great player, when people don't realize how great you are until it is too late to do anything about it aside from voting you to win. I would just want to know from him when he emerged from a follower into a power player, or if he was planning that all along. Also would like to know which parts of him were genuine and which parts were purposefly misleading.
2) Julia: As mentioned above, idgaf what other people say about Julia, but she is SLAYING everyone. She is playing a very bold and social game and that should be rewarded. My only gripe with her is her not voting and putting in a vote for exile. Those things that are missed make it hard for me to vote for a winner.
Some chance of getting my vote:
3) Dustin: He is very likeable, and could be playing a dominant physical game if he wins more immunities and is seen as the underdog now. However strategically I don't think he played a great game. I think he was very bossy/dramacentric pre-swap and exposing himself, and in merge I feel like he was too passive to try to make counter moves against moves that were being made against him. Also I still don't like how he handled being reunited with me. There were moments where it felt he was looking out for me, and moments where I felt he could care less what happened to me. I get we were separated and he had other alliances, and I didn't expect him to drop everything for me, but out of all 9 of the NuBruxelles he had the highest chance of getting me on his side as a number and he completely didn't utilize that opportunity and now he is in a spot where he is fighting for his life.
Very slim chance at getting my vote:
4) Jaclyn: She was "the next to go" for a long time now so if she makes it, then depending on how she plays her cards she could get my vote. If it was clear that she was dragged to the end, she is not getting my vote, but if she proves to me that she made active moves to ensure that she got to the end and is sitting there with Dustin and Carrie, I may vote her.
Not getting my vote at all:
5) Carrie: She didn't vote nor was around the round I left. That does not sit well with me. She also hasn't appeared to make any moves on her own and is just a vote for Julia. Even if she could convince me she did something (and she did pick a good tribe) I don't see it being enough to want to award over any of the other 4.
