PINKIE PROPOSED SECRET ALLIANCE BETWEEN ALL THE FORMER APPLES WHILE SHE PRETENDS TO STILL HATE US
THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A TRAP

I'm gonna say this now, I don't think I can believably tell others that I don't care for the Apples, but would prefer to vote Daddy over FlimFlam. So if that's what we're doing, the Sugarcubes will still be voting FlimFlam with me (I'm still not sure if for numbers sake I'll be actually putting my vote with you guys or with Sugarcube (or Carousel if we're voting for a Sugarcube).

Forming an alliance and then telling us that for the sake of optics, you might vote against the alliance? This is definitely not a trap.

FlimFlam, myself, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash might be making a group.

Rainbow Dash says he wants to kick Fluttershy and add Pear and Rarity. I think this one might actually not be a trap. But discussing it with him is keeping me awake

I'm going to sleep for real. I don't know how close to deadline it'll be when I get back. It should be a few hours though, so I'll have plenty of time to change my vote if necessary. It's still on Big Daddy right now.

Dash didn't tell me to change my vote to Flutter until less than an hour before the TC's deadline, so there's a chance that this revote would've happened anyway.

Chrysalis seems to be having the same problems with FlimFlam that Pinkie did. And... I like that? It keeps the door open to eventually get rid of FlimFlam.

I'm acting all sad about not knowing how to save Big Daddy in my conversations with him and Chrysalis, but I'm fine with it. Not worth blowing up the alliance with Dash and Rarity.

Hopefully he doesn't hand his items to Chrysalis before he goes, but if he does, shouldn't be too big of a deal.

FlimFlam sent Dash a scroll asking us to throw the challenge. Why didn't they send it to me?

I'm not going to actively throw, but I wasn't planning on going out of my way to stay awake or trying super duper hard to win the challenge. If we lose, Applejack should be an easy vote.

Buried Lede · « **Reply #161 on:** April 20, 2019, 03:27:48 pm »

Also, it's probably important for me to neigh that I really meant what I neighed 'bout wantin' to work with you as our time in the Sweet Apple Acres came to an end, and that still very much holds true now. I seriously was real excited when I saw that we were on a tribe together again! And then I realized I hadn' been diligent enough with mah Kegel exercises, but that's another thing altogether and you don' wanna hear 'bout that.

Hello, police?

Ms. Harshwhinny · « **Reply #167 on:** April 22, 2019, 07:36:06 pm »

How do you feel about your current chances in this tribe? How do you rank the other tribe members here?

Buried Lede · « **Reply #168 on:** April 23, 2019, 03:27:22 pm »

I feel great about this tribe. I think I have a good relationship with everypony. Dash and Pear both seem to want the three of us to stick together. Granny and I still get along very well. I'm finally clicking with Applejack. Coming up with rankings is too tough. If I had to vote somepony out right now, it would be Applejack, but I like talking to her more than Dash. In fact, Applejack might've jumped all the way up to my favorite person to talk to on the tribe.

Princess Celestia · « **Reply #169 on:** April 23, 2019, 03:37:34 pm »

Can you talk a little about the dichotomy of "favorite person to talk to" and "pony I would vote out next"?

I want to stick with Dash and Pear, and both of them like Granny more than Applejack. I also liked Granny more than Applejack at the start of the tribe. We've basically already decided that Applejack will be our first vote if we go to a TC. I don't like Applejack significantly more than anypony else, and I'm not even sure if she's my favorite or not.

Buried Lede · « **Reply #173 on:** April 25, 2019, 10:45:25 am »

Haven't decided if I'm going to be honest with Applejack or avoid her until the deadline. I told her the truth about her clearly being on the bottom from my perspective at the start of the tribe, but I left out the part where I'm definitely still planning to vote for her.

Buried Lede · « **Reply #174 on:** April 25, 2019, 05:11:10 pm »
