Hercule Poirot / Re: Épisode Deux: Ze Simple Life
« on: July 01, 2020, 02:53:10 pm »
My decision to play in zis game was actually a split-second decision on ze last day zat applications were being accepted. I originally 'ad applied as a spectateur comme vous, so zere ees another world where you and I are spectateurs watching ze game together. Ze reasons zat I decided to apply were many:

1.) I was rejected from another game zat I 'ad applied for, and I received word on ze same day as ze last day applications were being accepted for zis, so eet felt like ze universe wanted me to play. Zis was ze primary inciting incident.
2.) I 'ave been on a massive read/reread of all Agatha Christie novels, so I knew exactly ze character zat I wanted to play and zat I would 'ave a lot of content to roleplay with and a fun gimmick zat I wanted to try.
3.) 'Ere ees a quote from ze first chapter of Ze ABC Murders:

     "'I know,' I sad, 'that you actually retired years ago--"
     'C'est vrai. To grow the vegetable marrows! And immediately a murder occurs--and I send the vegetable marrows to promenade themselves to the devil. And since then--I know very well what you will say--I am like the prima donna who makes positively the farewell performance! That farewell performance, it repeats itself an indefinite number of times!'
     I laughed.
     'In truth, it has been very like that. Each time I say: this is the end. But no, something else arises! And I will admit it, my friend, the retirement I care for it not at all. If the little grey cells are not exercised, they grow the rust.'"

I do not think zat I need to say say more zan zat. Ze way zat Poirot feels about solving murders ees exactly ze way zat I feel about Survivor. Eet ees a compulsion. I am ze prima donna, and zis ees my farewell performance.

I always identified with someone like Hannah Shapiro as a 'uman being. I also relate to ze way zat Kellyn seized control of ze game and was loathe to relinquish eet even as 'er power slipped away. I will try not to do zose things in zis game. Poirot ees more observant zan I am, and I applies order and method more consistently, but I will try to allow 'is energy to affect ze way I look at ze game.

How did you think this challenge went for you? Do you think this performance will help your tribe win immunity?

I 'ave no idea. My confidence level ees low when it comes to ze flash games, but zis wasn't as 'orrible as I was expecting? I was kind of even enjoying eet at times. But 'as for 'ow my score with compare with other people, I truly do not know. I am sure zat some people did much better, but 'opefully I am not ze worst? I gave eet my best effort and tried for ze full hour anyway, so even if eet wasn't enough, I can 'old my 'ead up 'igh.

Mlle Judy officially proposed an alliance with me, 'er, and M. Grouch, which I am very 'appy about. Zey are definitely ze two people zat I most enjoy ze company of, even though M. Cheddar and M. Lucifer are more active, so if ze three of us are on ze same page, I think zat our odds of surviving zis tribe and moving forward together are very good.

I also think zat eef I can get 'er loyalty, she would be true to me until ze end of time, but even loyal allies can hurt your game at times. And I do not think zat I 'ave eet yet, I am not forgetting what she said about preferring M. Grouch.

M. Grouch and Mlle Judy are ze best at socializing. M. Lucifer ees ze most active. M. Cheddar ees ze best at messaging often but saying nothing. Mlle Jenny ees ze best at messaging other people but not me. M. Lance ees ze best at not messaging anyone.

I might actually prefer M. Lance. Someone who messages no one might be preferable to someone who clearly likes some people, but I am not one of zem. But I do not 'ave ze courage to push zat through so early unless M. Lance steps up significantly and makes 'imself worth saving.

Mlle Judy 'as already told me zat she considered throwing zis challenge to vote out M. Lance.

I think zat she ees exactly ze person I guessed earlier, but even if she eesn't, she ees acting like zat person. I think zat she could be an incredibly useful ally (and she also ees ze person who I most enjoy messaging, even more zan M. Grouch), but I must be careful and I cannot give 'er any info I do not want spread around. I also cannot try to change 'er way of seeing ze world, I must conform to eet and make all of my arguments within zose perameters. As long as I do zat, I think zat zis relationship will 'opefully be a success, at least until she goes 'ome at some point 'opefully not by my 'and. But I am very aware zat I am playing with fire and zat Mlle Judy ees not a controllable element.

Going to give this question thing a try.

How big of a fan of survivor are you? How many seasons have you watched? And what player would you like to model you game after?

I am a relatively big fan of Survivor, and I 'ave played a good amount of zese games. I am less of a fan of ze show zan I used to be, but compared to any normal person I am a Survivor superfan.

I 'ave seen almost every season I believe. I 'ave watched every season since Nicaragua live as eet aired, and I of course went back and watched most of ze early seasons, though eet ees possible zere are some zat I missed and zere I almost certainly some in ze middle zat I started but never finished.

I am not modeling my game after any player, I am modeling my game after Hercule Poirot. My main goal in zis game ees to try to anticipate situations and prepare for zem rather zan waiting for ze situations to arise to react. I also want to use my gimmick strategically to make myself seem less threatening zan I actually am. I am not sure zat zere ees a similar player from Survivor, because most Survivor players are not funny leetle Belgian detectives. Honestly I spent some time trying to think of one and I can't, maybe I'm even less of a Survivor fan zan I thought.
