Welcome to your confessional!

[Ace Ventura]

A couple times I've just kinda found myself as the least liked of an incredibly popular tribe and gotten cut for it due to us kinda sucking at challenges (or loltwists)

Avoiding it this time? I'm not sure, I guess the best answer is to keep trying my best

[Heiji Hattori]

I find you very likeable so I'm rooting for you to avoid that pitfall this time.

You recently completed the first challenge. How did your tribe fare? Did you make any adjustments to your favorability towards any of your tribemates after its completion?

[Ace Ventura]

appreciated!

I think we did well, though I don't have a frame of reference

I don't think it really changed anything for me socially

[Heiji Hattori]

If you were to rank your tribemates in terms of favorability, how would it go?

[Ace Ventura]

1. Scruff -- I think we trust each other and he's probably the strongest social player on this tribe, he would be good to work with going forward
2. Leon -- It's his first time playing apparently but he's been really nice to talk to
3. Jake -- Other potential social player except our conversation hasn't really clicked in the same way it has with Scruff or Leon, not really because of anything either of us has done so I'm not too worried about it
4. Lennie -- haven't talked with a ton but has been nice while available, though our convo hasn't really been as deep as with Scruff/Leon
5. Paul -- same as Lennie except a bit fluffier
6. Hannah -- talked a little bit yesterday but it's been kind of a while since I heard from her, our convo hasn't gone anywhere yet

[Heiji Hattori]

As you wished, I did not open your mental breakdown thread. However, I'm also concerned that a mental breakdown thread exists. What's going on?

[Ace Ventura]

Well, we lost the challenge, and I'm strongly of the opinion that all survivor games should have mental breakdown threads

It's like screaming into a pillow, essentially

Full disclosure: As a game mod I am obligated to read all threads.

[Ace Ventura]

I mean, the "don't read" is mostly there for postgame and/or humor effect

[Ace Ventura]

For anyone interested I’ll be answering questions/summarizing tribal once I’m off work in about an hour and a half

[Ace Ventura]

Player - Last message I've sent (time) - Last public post made (time)
Paul - 30th, 06:10 - 29th, 20:23 -- this is probably fine?
Lennie - 30th, 06:12 - 29th, 22:08 -- also probably fine? I do wish people would actually answer me on tribal days, but
Leon - 30th, 06:13 - 30th, 14:01 -- this is twice as weird because he said he was going to sleep in his last post so he's just...ignoring me?
Hannah - 30th, 12:19 - 29th, 17:27 -- this is fine
Scruff - 30th, 13:59 - 30th, 13:23 -- hope he does get a chance to answer once we solidify on the vote
Jake - 30th, 13:58 - 30th, 12:06 -- cool. cool cool cool cool cool

I don't remember what the point of this was

[Heiji Hattori]

For anyone interested I’ll be answering questions/summarizing tribal once I’m off work in about an hour and a half

I'm interested. What's your thought process?

[Ace Ventura]

Well

Since everyone on the tribe seems to like each other, Jake brought up the idea of doing a process of elimination which ended up leaving out Paul and Hannah

Given that I've heard nothing from Leon other than vague sentiments of not liking Hannah early before he said he was leaving I think the best assumption to make is that he's voting there making Hannah an easier vote than Paul

[Heiji Hattori]

Hey, bud.

That's a tough finish but no matter what, I'm here for you, both in this game and out. Feel free to have a postmortem chat and we can definitely chat more about the gameplay and what went down.

[Ace Ventura]

I should be getting added to the spectator forum soon so ideally we can talk there

and it happens, is what it is
