Hi Jeff, happy to be here. On the island of course, not at tribal. I think regardless of our loss at the first challenge, we are in a good place. My tribe seems pretty friendly and I'm going with the DaisyDanger strategy of chatting in the doc and making friends. I'm looking forward to future challenges with my tribe.

1: My game started off in a very interesting manner that involved me sleeping and not being around for the first challenge, though I feel like I had a place specifically picked out for me before the game even started.

so yeah I'd say it's been pretty good.

2: I'm just gonna try and have fun and see how far I'll get, my mentality will probably change depending how far I'll get through the game

DaisyDanger won last season of Survivor. Are you worried describing yourself as playing Daisy's game will cause others to perceive you as a threat?

Winning would be great, but I'm more interested in making friends and having fun. I think I'll be an asset to my team but not necessarily a threat. In the end, she won because she deserved it. I only hope I can be as good a player as she was.

Heya Jeff!

I think my game has started off pretty good, though we definitely haven't had long enough that I can say that for sure.

I hope to stick around for a while and see how far I can make it. So far I think the people on my tribe are cool and wanna just hang out and do cool challenges with them

I have a follow-up question that I would also like all players to answer: Do you have a target in mind tonight, and would you consider changing your target if they are here in the thread tonight while another person, who you were not planning to vote against, does not even show up for Tribal Council?

Thank you, Jato. With that, you are approved to turn in your vote.

You may, of course, wish to continue to hash things out in this Tribal while the vote is open, especially considering what you just said.

Please submit all votes by PM. You may write your vote on the following parchment:


You also may send your vote in text form, or create your own image vote not following the template as long as I can understand it! In fact, those votes are pretty fun.

If you didn't show up for the first challenge, I'd say you're in trouble. We need people willing to make the effort to keep our Tribe strong so early in the game. Can't imagine I'd change that opinion.

(I was trying to decide about that myself... For clarity's sake, I really would prefer you hold off on your vote until you are sure, but I suppose as long as it's still Tribal Council and everything is above board, I will allow changing votes for now. We'll see how it goes.)

How do you feel your game has started off? Have you found your place in this tribe? Why or why not?

Well, I don't feel as though I've had a particularly strong start. I wasn't around for the entirety of the first challenge, and feel like I let my team down in a pretty big way. I don't feel like I've really found my place because I haven't really been all that engaged so far.


Do you think you're primed for a deep run, or do you feel you're in trouble?

Well, seeing as I'm probably near the top of most people's lists due to no-showing, I don't think I'm in the best position at the moment.


Do you have a target in mind tonight, and would you consider changing your target if they are here in the thread tonight while another person, who you were not planning to vote against, does not even show up for Tribal Council?

I don't have a target in mind yet, but I would vote for someone who no-shows to Tribal Council. (:ironicat:)

Alright cool, cause I'm not sure how long I'll be able to stay awake cause it's currently midnight so I could pass-out at any time really, so i would like to put a vote down just so I don't end up without a vote

I'm not going to hide it. I want to vote captain monkey. He wasn't around for the challenge and hasn't shown up in the doc at all. He has only one post in this thread and its 3 letters long. No effort there.

I hope my team understands and will get on board with this.

I think I started off okay. I messed up on the first part of the challenge, but that didn't end up hurting us since someone else still had yet to compete it by the time I was actually done.

I think I may be finding my place in the tribe. I know quite a few people on my team from other things, and I'm getting along with them.

Do you think you're primed for a deep run, or do you feel you're in trouble?

I have no idea where I'll end up. I could go all the way, or I could get kicked out early. I hope I make to the end though.

I'm pretty sure I know who I'm voting off, but if there is a no-show tonight...


Also, I'm on my phone for the next 1 1/2 hours, so I may not respond instantly.

... but then again, who does?
Sure, I'm nervous about tribal Jeff, but while I don't feel like I have a huge target on my back, I'm a newbie, and newbies always seem to get voted out first.

We've only had one challenge so far, I don't really think anyone has "found their place" yet, but most everyone is trying as hard as they can. Do I have a target in mind? Nothing hard, but a couple of soft ones.

Tribal closes at 2230 EST? Then I don't mind pushing the challenge back, but I'm in CST. Having our team spread out timezone wise is kind of a drag. I don't usually get home from work until 5:30-6pm.

And HiipFire, it wasn't me in your twitch stream. I feel too old to fully embrace random internet dickery.

The challenge is tomorrow (Thursday) and the Tribal Council does go until 10:30 EST (tonight). Not sure if you have that right or not.

Recursive, one more question: You say you do not have a hard target in mind, but several others have mentioned Captain Monkey by name. Have you approached anyone asking about targets? Do you feel you are out of the loop, and could you take action to change that in the future?

You can send me your vote after answering this. Also, stepping away for a little while. Will be back later.

I had it wrong, thanks.

While I don't feel all that out of the loop, I definitely didn't want to come on too strong. I know some people have prior experience with both this game and with the some of the other players. I don't want to go up to someone out of the blue and have a chance to put my foot in my mouth asking them what they think about voting their ally out. I have been approached about targets though.

I'll PM you my vote in a bit.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final, and that person will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

If any of you have a hidden immunity idol and wish to play it, now would be the time to do so.
