Met says he has an idol. This could really shake things up. Other players, what does this mean to you? Surprised?

He claimed to me earlier about it so I'm not surprised.

Yeah, us in the swole tribe have had to give up pretty much every evening this week thus far to this game and it's really cramping my social life.

Can we please move the challenge to like, tomorrow or next week or SOMETHING

Chic Trombone

also even beyond the social life thing I have finals next week

I need to study and having my evenings disrupted EVERY EVENING is really shooting that effort in the foot

Honestly it probably wouldn't be as bad as it's been for me if I wasn't in finals runup hell right now

But I am so it's been really bad

Hello hello! Running a bit late today because I am easily distracted :v

Questions for all
Last Tribal Council, the way things went down were pretty crazy with Met's fake idol. What was the fallout from that TC?

After losing your third straight challenge, it's starting to look like you're outmatched. Why does Sexy keep winning, and what can the Swole tribe do to stop Sexy's momentum?

With each subsequent vote, this tribe is getting smaller and there are fewer places to hide. Can you feel the walls closing in? What happens if this tribe dwindles down to 4, or 3?

I don't think there was any real "fallout", mostly just a lot of amused laughter that I saw.

I don't know that we're outmatched per se, but I do think we've had a bit of a run of bad luck. Hopefully we'll break it next challenge (and hopefully next challenge will be after my finals so that 1/5 out of our members won't be distracted)

It is what it is I think. Am I getting paranoid? Maybe kinda. If we dwindle more I'll probably end up worrying more haha, but I'm not TOO worried yet

also doggpickle i don't think a keyboard should give you more trouble when your laptop is plugged in vs. when it isn't, if that's happening it sounds like there might be something wrong with your laptop. Like, I'm no expert on technology but that sounds like something isn't right

I definitely disagree. I'm sure whatever it was that people were looking to accomplish, you could have still accomplished while actually playing the game that was designed for you to play.

That said, we've got two Tribal Councils coming up. Let's hold them both tomorrow.

I mean to be fair we DID play the game - the one trade that occured was the only trade we needed to accomplish what we needed done, though.

Question for all
During last night's challenge, the Sexy tribe came to a unified agreement on whom to vote out. This seems to suggest they're a unified group. Worried about your position in the merger?

Not super worried atm. Probably I'll worry once the merger actually takes place, but we have a bit before that happens so why stress out about it now?

One could argue that if you only think of the next Tribal, and never think ahead, you'll be led into elimination like a lamb to the slaughter. It's happened before in Awful Survivor. If you lose next challenge, it will be one of the four of you going home. And after that, come the merger, it also could be one of you again. What are you doing to ensure your safety down the line?

Oh I mean I'm thinking ahead, yeah, I just meant to say I wasn't stressing out about it. In regards to "ensuring my safety", I'm just trying to be a chill person really.

Chic Trombone
Jul 25, 2010

Also it's not hard for a group to be unified when there's one obvious person to vote out who just isn't there all the time. Once the other tribe has excised those people there are sure to be some cracks

For all except D. Coil
I'm glad at least one person is worried about what happens come merge time. But, that being the case, I have to ask this:
10 of you were in a Skype chat together, all sharing your rules. D. Coil was sitting alone on AIM with only his own rule. There were multiple advantages available in the challenge that could win you immunity come merge time. Extra money in the auction, or an advantage in the challenge.

So my question is, were you so confident there were cracks in their alliance, that you didn't think it worth bothering to grab those advantages? All it would've taken would be trading one coconut to a buddy.

Or, were you so afraid of D. Coil winning 1 on 10 that you thought you had no choice but to not even try for the advantages?

Or is there some other explanation I'm not seeing? Too afraid to stick your head out and make waves? What was it?

We didn't want to risk it + we really just wanted to all chill. Nobody cared that much about the advantages so we just.... chilled. With cards against humanity.
