Alright, so I'm going to guess based on what Anthony is saying that shit is going to hit the fan tomorrow and it's going to be interesting to see where all of the drama occurs. I really want to vote Herman out, however if he leaves I'm going to have to get creative on what happens. This twist is kind of not my fave, but it's fine. In addition, it's very clear that Ivanhoe is not a big happy tribe and is going to break up. That's fine too. I made one last ditch effort to try and keep us from scattering and losing a numbers advantage in the next phase so we had options, but if everyone on the tribe decides to be trigger happy and fuck each other over that's fine with me too.
This game looks so much different for me if this was a swap. Ah well you can't win em and you can't lose em all. Let's just see how long I don't lose this one for as I get ready to go into the next phase of whatever bullshit is about to come crashing down.
In the meantime I have two things i want to update you on:
1. Here's the conversation between Buckley and myself that mades me love this doggo:
woof! bark woof woof woof bark, woof bark! woof woof bark?
bark bark woof woof bark arf tail wag!
Barj brwj wook woof woof arf woof fufy woof bsj bafk woooooof!
Woof woof ruff bark eoofp
Bark bark tail wag, sniff woof pant pant woof bark!
2. Since right now it's a cold war and I think all out verbal war is going to break out once the mutiny happens, I'm going to instead share my thoughts on what I thought of everyone on the other side. Switch up the rankings a little bit!
Top tier list:
1. Madame D.-What an absolute sweetheart. I adore her, and I think she's very misunderstood. I really enjoyed my conversation with her and she easily left the best impression with me. I would love to meet her in a swap and see if we can't work something out. However I also think she is a very good player and playing up sort of a noobish persona. That doesn't mean I don't like her, I just also know that long term I need to watch her.
2. Margot Tenebaum-Wow what a firecracker. I love how bold she is and how much she just shoots her shot and goes for broke. This is exactly the type of player I want going forward because I'm always gong to know what she is thinking and when she is thinking it. She also seems like the type not to care about conflict and if I'm good to her she will stick up for me in return. I like her. But she does have winner potential written all over her, so like Madame D I think I'm going to need to watch her carefully if we swap together.
Middle tier:
3. So I actually have a tie for third:
a. Peter Whitman-He is smart. There are a ton of players I can see him getting along with on our side and actually I think there are people on our side who would flip to him over me. I could just see him drawng people in and then spitting them out, or deciding he can beat them and taking them far. This is the type of player I generally watch out for because usually they have a lot going on upstairs and it blows up in my face. However, short term, might be someone worth looking at working with.I don't see long term ally potential though.
b. Buckley-Okay. this guy has goat potential and I love him. He's just adorable and I would have loved to get to know him if he wasn't so obviously drunk and partying. Just unfortunate and I think he has potential to be someone I can work with and use long term. I do want to assess that situation more though as I didn't get a good feel for what this dude was actually like.
5. Royal Tenenbaum-Another one of those fellows that I want to get to know on a deeper level when I get the chance. The time restraint didn't give a lot of time for me to get an impression of the dude. He seems okay. Could be a number to use at some point. No clue though. Again I need to assess the dude when I get a chance.
Low tier:
6. Foxy Fox-I think Margot soiled this guy for me and showed me that he's just a social gamebot who is kind of smarmy and very much a cool customer. With his immunity win today I doubt he gets picked off and I'll likely see him again. He is going to be alone soon, but from what I understand he likes to get his way and tried to dictate votes. Actually on second thought, maybe that's exactly the kind of person I need to be befriending. Don't take the nice people who are going to win all the votes, take the offputting people and then beat them at the end. I might have to re-evaluate the situation depending on what happens. I know Sam really wants to take this guy far, but depending how the drama unfolds tomorrow I'm not sure how long Sam has for the world, in this game. Anyways, don't hate it, but it's very much a get in your face and learn all about you type of guy, which is the type of player I am, and trying to get along with someone like that is both something to worry about and something to think about. However because Margot got into my head first I'm now seeing someone who is buttering everyone up because that's the type of person he is, which is like me. Until I can be proved wrong otherwise, this is where he goes on my list.
7. Max something-Pretty sure he's dying next unless he mutiny's here. If he doesn't I don't see the point in getting to know him further or ranking him here. I'll re-assess this if he mutiny's here or somehow isn't the one voted out. For now trying to put effort into what seems like the next vote out on the other side doesn't feel like a worthwhile endeavor. For the record I don't hate Max, he seems fine, and if he was on jury I would have a different mindset than this. It's hard to give a shit pre-jury because none of them decide if you win or not.
And that's all I have right now. I have to see how all of this shit goes down tomorrow. If I believe what Anthony said which I'm skeptical about, then things are going to go down...in some way. (still trying to interpret that last DM there's so much to digest that I feel out of the loop on.)
