It is time to find out what this small station from my binoculars message is.

Foxy Fox is an interesting character.

Confessional Prompt 10: How will this twist allowing you to communicate with the other tribe impact your game?

In theory it will allow me to do some planning for swap with current tribemates.

They just came off of a 5-3 votesplit between Steve and Madame, so am curious to figure out who's on the outs. Likely Foxy but supposedly he voted in the majority.

Just got pointed out to me we've got a tribal council after this, which makes it an 8-6 split going into the swap.

If I win a Mendl, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be playing it on Herman.

I am struggling to undrstand this game, I've been eaten by some monster twice and the game timer isn't even going.

There are three sets of starting flags at the top of the hill. You must navigate horizontally to the flags for the tree slalom and enter the course between those flags for the timer to start. Otherwise you’re just cruising around for your own enjoyment.

Edit: Oh, I see I’m a bit late with the info. Glad you figured it out though!

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #8 on:** September 11, 2021, 09:54:08 pm »

Yeah, the wikipedia page for the game helped a lot.

Gahh I slipped up with Oracle, idk if he trusts me now.

I also don't really understand him, he seems to really like Margot for telling him stuff about their tribe but was annoyed at me for telling their tribe less stuff than that about ours.

Although, I must inform you that from what I've heard it's between you Duke and Herman, and I enjoy you the most of the three. :) Mysterious characters are hard to play well if I do say so, and you've done a pretty good job. ;)

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Oracle why are you like this

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #11 on:** September 12, 2021, 01:51:56 am »

To elaborate on the above, 'mysterious' was a term I used with Oracle in reference to myself, and never with Anthony or anyone else, so it feels like a strong indicator of the source. Most likely it's an aggressive attempt to try to get me to not try to save Herman but it may be more than that.

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #12 on:** September 12, 2021, 02:15:08 am »

Alright I'm reserving the next 6 minutes to trying to post at the same timestamp as the most online timestamp, and practice, so please don't pedit me.

Wow I actually hit it.
Testing is complete.

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #21 on:** September 12, 2021, 03:02:37 am »

Anthony is out here saving me, meanwhile I'm plotting with Herman to leave Anthony out of the vote.
Idk how to bring him in though.

Currently I'm tryna get Oracle/Suzy/Duke to vote Young Writer

Herman is telling me he likes Young Writer and if we're on the bottom with him we should be working with him.

So to Herman I've proposed potentially getting Sam/Herman/Writer/Gustave/Richie voting someone else (i have Oracle in mind but I ain't sharing that yet).

Anthony has told me he thought Gustave/Writer were close which means I like the above plan more.

And so basically right now I'm angling for a 5-3-1 votesplit of Oracle-Writer-Herman. I don't think that's gonna happen and I expect this plan to change several more times, but that's where I'm at right now.

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #22 on:** September 12, 2021, 08:50:36 am »

Neither of the theorized flips were gonna happen anyway, but at least with the challenge results it's gonna be easier for me to accept and just move on.

Hopefully I get swapped to something pleasant.

Sam Shakusky · « **Reply #23 on:** September 12, 2021, 10:02:26 am »

At this point I feel more comfortable with Oracle side than Gustave/Richie side which feels weird. I still like and trust Anthony much more than anyone else.

I'm considering mutinying but I'm struggling to find much for pros to consider it worth it.
I'm also considering passing the binoculars to Young Writer.

Wes Anderson · « **Reply #24 on:** September 12, 2021, 10:42:25 am »

What is the idea behind passing the binoculars?

Congratulations…
