I guess I can throw a crazy theory out there.This next vote comes down to Aubra and Knight. Assume TSL, Bailey, Jordan and Jake vote together. Assume Ricky and Danny vote together. Assume Aubra and Knight now have some power with both Knight’s steal a vote and knowledge of 2 idols.
Those 4 have a plan to vote Ricky which both Aubra and Knight are aware of. At tribal, Ricky steals Jordan’s vote (or Jake), and then Knight “steals” Ricky’s vote, giving off the illusion that nothing changes and it’s 6-2 when in reality it was 4-4 and now with that vote of Jordan/Jake being stolen, it’s 5-3 for probably Bailey (based on Knight’s confessional about wanting to go after TSL’s other closest ally).
Crazy theory, I’ll probably be wrong but that would be interesting.

Ricky's latest confessional ("Second merge confessional") is one of the best confessionals of the season. While talking about current events in the game, he ends up laying out a lot of his game philosophy, and it's really illuminating (an example of a gem he drops: "I don't mind when people talk shit about me because it just makes them louder.")
He also made some excellent, articulate criticisms of TSL's move last round. I agree that TSL should have at least tried harder to get people on board to vote Mojo instead of blindsiding them - and if she wasn't able to get people on board, that she probably should have just avoided the move altogether. TSL is still the better player imo, but Ricky has consistently shown that he has one of the best minds for these games.
As kind of a side note, he seems to be content letting others make big moves for him and appears to be focused on just getting to the end rather than building any kind of resumé. I get why he's inclined that way - he's won games before and making it to the end would certainly be an achievement for him given the target on his back; but I do worry that he might run into similar issues that Chris O did at the end of Endure 8. Sitting back and letting others make mistakes is certainly the right strategy at times, but it's by far the easiest strategy to execute, so it's harder to sell it as an accomplishment to the jury.
