@Eli Cash

Or Margot could just immediately pick off one of foxy/max here and have only one enemy left :V

Obviously there's no way Margot could have known about this twist but with this open communication round, I'm sure Fox will be eager to shade her to everyone else. I think she will definitely be taking the fall for this vote while Madame D gets to come out of this looking ok.

Holy shit our tribe had a really fun dynamic.  It's so interesting to see how wrong my reads were

Yeah basically Margot only ever had one foot in the Chair alliance, and preferred some of the players on the outside of it, so the alliance was really only 3/10 players to start with and it was just a question of when Margot and Madame would rally the others.  Still though it was kind of just an unlucky draw that it was you out of the three to get hit.

One thing that will forever baffle me about the meta here is that someone like Buckley can be told, Hey there’s an alliance of 4 here, you want in? And be like Nah I’m good. Who says no to joining a majority like that, and how did that actually work for him?!

I couldn't get Fox to vote Buckley to save my life.  He was so vehement against it.  I also didn't want to keep pushing him off his Target.

To be fair, I don't think that is a typical move in the meta here, it's a pretty surprising move from Buckley that seems to have worked out for him this time. It's not clear to me whether anyone besides Foxy knows this happened though. If they did, they might be more upset.

Foxy didn't tell us that Buckley turned him down.  He told us he changed his mind about asking Buckley

It only worked out because Fox is new tbh but then again Buckley also picked up on their newness so I'm sure he wouldn't have done it if he felt Fox was an experienced player.

I legit loved Fox's energy so much.  This game was so different than Pantheon.  This will be my last for awhile.  I fucking love these games but it takes a lot out of me

Gustave's latest confessional... oh man. If they let foxy live, he's going to pick up a bunch of cross tribe allies in the swap and even make it to merge, isn't he.

Meanwhile Sam is talking about idoling Herman(!) and then Oracle is apparently confronting Sam over pairing him with Suzy I guess?

Oracle really interpreted Margot's post uncharitably. She was making a joke about his name!

SNOOPY HAS NOT BEEN READING MUCH OF THE FOX'S CONFESSIONAL BUT THE FOX THINKS THAT BUCKLEY, MAX, AND STEVE ALL VOTED MADAME? THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE FOX VOTED MADAME..

OH NEVER MIND. SNOOPY SEES WHAT BUCKLEY DID. HOW CLEVER.

THE FOX IS TOO QUICK TO JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS THOUGH. SHADING MARGOT WILL NOT GO WELL FOR THE FOX OR MARGOT.

OH SNOOPY SEES THE MARGOT POST NOW. SNOOPY THINKS IT'S CLEVER AS WELL BUT NOW THE FOX WILL NEVER REALIZE THEIR POSITION IN THE GAME ISN'T THAT SOLID. IT IS MUCH BETTER THAN FLUSHING MARGOT AND THE FOX'S GAMES THOUGH.

Chapter 5

I want to like Foxy, I really do. There is a lot to like there. But they are very frustrating to work with and I'm not sure how much longer I can do it for. They're constantly spewing ridiculous excuses at me and in my head I'm just....

STOPPPPPP!!!!!! JUST BE REAL WITH ME GOSH!!

even after I literally tell them to stop bullshitting

yeah it's getting to me
Is this the power of being a "very empathetic person"?

SNOOPY FINDS IT FUNNY THAT ONE OF THE TABS OPEN ON DUKES SCREEN IS "what age is Jeff goldblum"

ONE WOULD THINK DUKE WOULD TRY TO BE CAREFUL TO NOT BE CAUGHT IMPERSONATING JEFF GOLDBLUM.

On recent posts there’s Oracle’s post saying “now this is how it’s done/how you get info out of Sam” and then the post directly above it is Sam talking about how they should vote Oracle
