I hope I didn't cause Queen to go with this UTR play though, I don't think my pleas of her being a social threat and needing me to survive in the future would have caused that though.
Depends how much she believed me

Sounds like Starlight had found out DJ hasn't been carousel strong the whole time. Can only imagine it getting worse when if they had thrown the challenge flimflam wouldn't have been going home.

Shift 15 of my derpy shares onto queen

I'm not going to directly out myself. I need some semblance remaining of it remaining a mystery.

It'll be interesting what those that didn't know starlight had the legacy advantage think of the cutie map information.

Well until everything is spread around about pinkie having had a pre-merge only idol and starlight ends up claiming credit. (Enough know that not doing so is even more stupid than doing so)

You didn't have to go get yourselves eliminated just to see me again.
I was perfectly fine watching you continue on from here.

I think we need to convert this glue factory to producing Apple cider though

Yus Derpy Redemption!

I think he was always just suffering from being in Starlights shadow. If I recall correctly, while discussing the returnee vote (probably with flimflam), we identifed the reason the Trixie and Starlight connection went bust was they were both too similar.

This actually looks like the kind of tribal the crystal mirror should have been used for.
But it doesn't matter as if I hadn't used it already, I'd have taken it out of the game with me.

I did not see this pinkie wagon forming, but I like it.

Where was Coco finding that Idol when it could have saved me?

I see DJ has gone the direct approach with granny as well with thoughts as to what could have happened at that last tribal council. I wonder if it's in the same condescending tone I received on crystal.

Starlight using the legacy advantage to save Derpy and some other big name getting blindsided.

Or it'll be a straight forward Flim and Flam elimination.

Wait granny's confessional, (of a quote from pear), that's then slightly different, and stuff may still happen

money on derpy please

I always forget to blackout my bookmarks. One of them clearly identifies me. I'm not even sure why I have the other bookmark still as a bookmark.

Well I guess that at least makes the challenge wonderbolts lost to take me out a bit better. My best score so far is only 52k. (But it's a given I'd have been doing it a lot more if I was still in)
And I can't see anypony currently thinking Coco is a challenge threat, all we have to determine that on at the moment is challenge 2 times.

Fyi for those of you curious about the idol puzzle. Dash actually had one of the right ideas. Explained in the spoiler below

Spoiler

Once you get it in this form:

you need to look closely but you can find the answer we are looking for.

[close]

I think Horse Area Inventory was still a better answer though :/

Wonderbolt Academy sucks so hard at confessionals, we still don’t know how any of them actually feel about Coco

I'm pretty sure Coco's confessional is accurate for that.

Things will probably change around to them liking her etc if they all survive the tribe.

I'm hoping Applejack survives as well. I see her game improving so much, and her slowly creeping up the like list is similar to how I play, although obviously different ways of getting that endearment.

I just read the golden oak forum, and I'm like, Britain doesn't do Anzac Day, why is starlight posting about the public holiday tomorrow? Then I realise it was posted yesterday, and then I read the thread.

I don't even care about the missing that first one, it was the second one that made me feel I did terrible.

Although I think that distraction came from the first error though.

You know I'm always going to blame my own actions for how I leave these games.

I can't tell how much was my terrible challenge performance, getting a bad swap, potentially trying to target the wrong pony (I had nothing to go off on any of them, so i don't think that has anything to do with it), or just my own social skills failing. (I still never manage to remember the conversation hooks, and that's unlikely to change).

But yeah I knew I was gone the instant I failed the challenge, while it was fun to get back to trying to scheme after we eventually got to the tribal council, not something I actually wanted to be experiencing.

I will spec the rest of the game out thanks, I'm going to try to ignore looking how good my position was before that last swap though.

Eh I guess I should still cast a vote, won't end up doing anything, but whatever.

Tribal council 8 - vote pinkie pie

Coco has confirmed Chrysalis is playing with me.
Makes sense for the evil changeling Queen though.
Tomorrow I'm going to have to go back in there with compliments galore, because I am want her on my side.

Well it also depends how she answers my question about how shady I'm being with trying to tip the bus over.
Because there's stuff in here that would be useful for a future of me going after her.

Yeah not believing Chrysalis agreeing with my reasoning for why I'm pushing Pinkie.
Also makes me want to try actually turning the tables.

Maybe tomorrow, but probably not, I need to stick with the one angle, telling Pinkie I'm willing to change angles was just bad play.

Chrysalis is therefore my actual only hope, and I will cling to all hopes I can find as much as possible.

okay now I need to eat my own words, shoot. I completely forgot about the actual contents of Pinkie's first message to me here.

But that's where the pressure comes, I'm getting myself in the game even if I am still the vote. I know I need to go down fighting, or it's not the game just isn't a big adventure like it's supposed to be

It would just be good if the amount of free time I have currently was in american timezones more, so I can stalk the online users list. But half the time I see them they've probably just loaded stuff up on the phone and not responding.

1) I can't count to 60.
2) that depends on whether or not going home hurts.
3) All Cloudadale members of this tribe are sticking with their tribe. Any others I can't tell if they'd vote along any tribal lines.
4) Are they going to save me? Probably not, therefore very concerned.
5) I'm the standard derivation.
6) if I survive, yes.
7) We're at tribal council. (How am I meant to always answer that if you don't give me the main factor behind my vote question?)

Why are all my game talk things with other ponies centered around Trixie?
That just makes everything annoying to bring up information.

The main trouble is of course me/Coco can't be trusted for more than this vote, there's literally no reason to not break us up for the other three
I'm going to have to try seeing who in the previous tribes told me stuff about the others, try throwing names of future groups we can work with.
Which I think my best shot of that is with Chrysalis. Possibly that.
As I have an alliance (in the works) with Derpy, and I know from granny starlight is interested as well.
I also know Soarin was interested in working with me and Coco, and he's probably down to work with Rarity as well. How much value do I give to that sweet Apple sugarcube alliance that never really happened?

I thought you said there was 4 hours before you embarrassed me.

I guess having our loss delayed makes it possible we can still connect.
Kind of pointless imo.
They don't even need 4 players online to beat us

I guess this title could still work if I end up surviving here, but I know after that challenge performance I don't know if I can actually face it.
I know it's just going to sit with me as one of my failing regardless of everything.

and even the cute puppies aren't cheering me up. I think I'm just scared that I'm going to take out the anger I'm building up about myself out on one of those. Because this sure is a way to make myself feel better. Somehow needing to wait that 23 more hours for idk the other tribes to not actually start? I know it's easter and stuff, but yeah.

Maybe it would feel better if Crysalis sent me a message while I've been moping around. I guess I just want to feel the false hope of not getting voted out would bring.
