Episode 2 - I NEED MORE iS POINTS, VALIDATE ME

[Sagar]

I don't know what to write about but I need more iS points. I am honestly shocked and somewhat amused at the thought of two people in this game writing better confessionals than me.

I am assuming that it's two people from Mbochi. Or rather, I'm hoping that it's two people from Mbochi because if not, then that would imply that there are two people on my tribe who are doing more writing, hence more strategizing than me, which is worrisome. Because from the way that I'm looking at it, nothing is going on in this tribe at the moment, whereas I'm sure the Mbochis had something to write about what with TC and all. RIP Danielle! Gotta pour one out for the homies

Now that she's gone, and Hash/Dylan are eyeing Renee/Kim for first boot on our tribe, this game will become a real sausage fest, real fast. Uh oh.

[Sagar]

I think I was a little confused by how the iS point system worked. For some reason, I thought that the person with the best confessional was given a 10, the next best 9, and so on and so forth.
But I guess it's just a subjective scale of 1-10, if I read it correctly. Who the fuck thought I deserved an 8, Hemingway??

[Sagar]

I will continue to bitch about it until I get a 10.
Anyway, on to game stuff, I feel a little disconnected with my tribemates at the moment for some reason. I've barely talked to half of them, and I know Sam well enough (at least from knowing he's pretty experienced at these things) to know that he probably already made an alliance? Possibly? I don't know? If he did, I'm clearly not a part of his plan, because he doesn't talk game with me at all. Should I be more aggressive? Or maybe I'm just being paranoid. That tends to happen a lot, get used to it.

[Sagar]

My tribemates feel the need to bash on the ladies for being inactive IN THE TRIBE CHAT that I made. For everyone. This isn't an alliance chat, people!! They can read that stuff if/when they log onto AIM!!

[Sagar]

lUl at Tomas posting his brilliant idea in the thread that both tribes can see. Keep 'em coming, Tomas!

[Sagar]

Feeling Sam out:

Sagar D 12:47 am
so do you know of any of these people in our game? like people to watch out for
i feel like i'm dealing with 16 strangers

sorintheseeker 12:48 am
let me check

Sagar D 12:48 am
it's kind of good in a sense. reminds me of chronicles 2 with all new faces
but it's a little intimidating

sorintheseeker 12:49 am
the only one i've even heard of besides you is Dave from the other tribe
he's a sweetheart. everyone likes him, he's real friendly and fun

Sagar D 12:49 am
okay sweet

sorintheseeker 12:49 am
i never talked to him on like a friend level but he played in one of my games

Sagar D 12:49 am
really? because he's giving me a death glare in his picture

sorintheseeker 12:49 am
lol
it's a ruse!

Sagar D 12:49 am
hahaha


Not bad. I know they're closer than he lets on, but at least he didn't hide it completely. Duly noted.

[Sagar]

lUl Sam added me on FB and the first thing I did was search for "Dave" in his friends. Found him!
interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111

[Sagar]

sorintheseeker 12:59 am
yeah she told me to add her then she didn't give me her facebook link
then one minute later she asked me for an alliance b/c she apparently liked the 3 sentences i typed to her
i was like er, sure Kim!

Sagar D 12:59 am
LOL lucky!
i would love to be in one with her. she's a total MILF

sorintheseeker 1:00 am
hahaha
well it didn't take very much effort for me to get an alliance from her
so i'm sure you could too she's kinda easy like that =)

Sagar D 1:00 am
looool
apparently not :-( i asked her about her work
i guess that wasn't good enough
i'm so bad with the ladies

// Apparently Kim asked Sam for an alliance after their short conversation. Apparently my short conversation was not good enough. I am O V E R you, Kim.

[Sagar]

i will give sandy's nudes to any of the judges who give kwele the win ^_^
i'm sure i can find them from someone on TG

[Sagar]

Sagar D 11:03 pm
well =/ i was hoping we wouldn't have to use this chat this early in the game

x Perfect Hash x 11:03 pm
Yeah lmao

Sagar D 11:04 pm
so are you guys basically thinking kim or renee?

x Perfect Hash x 11:05 pm
I think that would be best
They aren't really around enough to make an impact

Maddie RealWorld 11:07 pm
wait
we still have one more judge
or is it official?'

x Perfect Hash x 11:07 pm
Oh no you're right
There is another judge

Sagar D 11:07 pm
oh crap
i didn't even realize
holy shit it's 0.5 off

Maddie RealWorld 11:07 pm
lmao
CMON LAST JUDGE
LOVE US
*hopes*

Sagar D 11:08 pm
that's what i get for not reading
hahaha

x Perfect Hash x 11:08 pm
Now we lost lol

Sagar D 11:08 pm
LOL
that was...painful

Sagar D 11:09 pm
got my hopes up for a second

Maddie RealWorld 11:10 pm
boo
honestly
i see our SoS clearer than theirs
whatever

x Perfect Hash x 11:10 pm
I didn't even notice the periods in their SOS until I read one of the comments

Maddie RealWorld 11:11 pm
well shat

x Perfect Hash x 11:12 pm
They did a pretty good job
I had no idea they would write so much jesus

Maddie RealWorld 11:14 pm
yeah
oh well
now what

Sagar D 11:15 pm
i was talking to sam last night
and he said kim asked him for an alliance LOL
so idk
that's kind of fishy

x Perfect Hash x 11:15 pm
She hasn't said anything to me
Since the first challenge when I messaged her what to do

Sagar D 11:16 pm
i mean, i spoke with her for literally a minute. and apparently same thing with sam, but she asked him for an alliance

Maddie RealWorld 11:16 pm
i'd say kim is on the least

Sagar D 11:16 pm
which confused him lmao

Maddie RealWorld 11:16 pm
renee even commented more

Sagar D 11:16 pm
agreed

Sagar D 11:16 pm
we need to tell kim something else though...

Maddie RealWorld 11:16 pm
yeah

x Perfect Hash x 11:16 pm
I think her and Renee are actually close

Maddie RealWorld 11:16 pm
I think so too

x Perfect Hash x 11:16 pm
When I told Renee that Kim is never on a couple days ago she tried to defend her

Maddie RealWorld 11:17 pm
aparently they play facebook survivors or bbs or something

x Perfect Hash x 11:17 pm
Yeah

Sagar D 11:17 pm
oh crap

x Perfect Hash x 11:17 pm
Who would we tell them we're voting for?

Sagar D 11:18 pm
someone has to agree to let their name be thrown out there

x Perfect Hash x 11:18 pm
Since they will probably ask

Sagar D 11:18 pm
so neither of them use the idol
maybe chris or jeb will do it?
idk

x Perfect Hash x 11:19 pm
Well it would need to be believable
Maybe we ask them who they would like to see go and roll with that

Sagar D 11:20 pm
that's a good idea

x Perfect Hash x 11:20 pm
I probably won't hear from Kim

Sagar D 11:20 pm
just make it seem like there hasn't really been any strategic talk going on thus far

x Perfect Hash x 11:20 pm
If she mentions either of you guys to me I'll let you guys know. I just ask that you do the same for me

Sagar D 11:20 pm
so whatever they're up for will be who we do
obviously i will

x Perfect Hash x 11:20 pm
We shouldn't confront her though if she does say someone's name
We roll with it
We don't need added drama or wasting idols within our alliance

x Perfect Hash x 11:21 pm
Do we want to split votes?

Sagar D 11:22 pm
perhaps
do you guys think we should maybe establish some sort of understanding with jeb/chris/sam
because i don't want to completely ignore them and have to worry about them flipping after merge

x Perfect Hash x 11:23 pm
I think Chris might be our best bet, he is on a lot

Sagar D 11:23 pm
right

x Perfect Hash x 11:23 pm
Does anyone have a relationship with any of those 3 we could use?

Sagar D 11:23 pm
jeb is hardly on
i just want to make sure we don't completely ignore them, in case sam/chris/jeb/renee/kim or any combination of those 5 make some sort of deal before we get to them
because then we're fucked

x Perfect Hash x 11:24 pm
If Sam was willing to tell you something about Kim he might be a good pickup also

Sagar D 11:24 pm
he's a good guy
i'm just wary of him

x Perfect Hash x 11:25 pm
We can probably make a Solid 4 with Chris, make Sam the 5th?
And we'll have a strong alliance there

Sagar D 11:25 pm
right
but we'd have to make a new chat, as if it were the first chat that any of us were ever in

x Perfect Hash x 11:25 pm
Yeah we should make another Blast Chat

Sagar D 11:25 pm
so they don't realize that us 3 already have this established

x Perfect Hash x 11:25 pm
Yeah I agree

Sagar D 11:25 pm
ok
so like, we should talk to them before just adding them to the chat
chris is online right now i think
dylan are you here?

Maddie RealWorld 11:29 pm
sorry
phone call

x Perfect Hash x 11:29 pm
No problem buddy

Maddie RealWorld 11:29 pm
we have to be careful with JEB

x Perfect Hash x 11:29 pm
Really?

Maddie RealWorld 11:30 pm
he said
that he knows Kim, and knows of Renee

x Perfect Hash x 11:30 pm
Oh really

Maddie RealWorld 11:30 pm
because of the facebook survivors
or whatever

x Perfect Hash x 11:30 pm
That makes sense because Renee knew A LOT about Kim
We might need to keep those 3 in the dark

Maddie RealWorld 11:30 pm
he also knows two others on the other tribe, he Hates Brandon
also, if you lie to him, he will go psycho

x Perfect Hash x 11:31 pm
Really?

Maddie RealWorld 11:31 pm
he said something along the lines of: he hates being lied ot
to*

x Perfect Hash x 11:31 pm
I wonder if we told him Kim if Kim would play an Idol and we could blind side him?

Maddie RealWorld 11:31 pm
that's his least favorite thing in these games
well honestly JEB does more than Kim

x Perfect Hash x 11:31 pm
Yeah

Maddie RealWorld 11:31 pm
and if he knows Brandon and one of the others
he could be a potential resource
or a potential flipper

x Perfect Hash x 11:32 pm
Exactly

Maddie RealWorld 11:32 pm
pros/cons

x Perfect Hash x 11:32 pm
This is tough
But if we tell him whoever Kim is voting for and that's not how the vote goes, is he going to freak out and ruin challenges?

Maddie RealWorld 11:33 pm
idk
he just hates lies

Sagar D 11:34 pm
ugh crap now i'm worried
if kim asked sam for an alliance
and kim knows renee and jeb
then those 4 could have established somethign already

x Perfect Hash x 11:34 pm
I think it's safe to assume Kim/JEB/Renee are together
If they got Sam, that's 4 right there
I feel good about Chris

Maddie RealWorld 11:34 pm
I doubt they have sam
sam told you
and JEB told me

Sagar D 11:34 pm
i think i can get sam with us though, because we're more active anyway

Maddie RealWorld 11:34 pm
i think it's just renee-kim

Sagar D 11:34 pm
right

Maddie RealWorld 11:35 pm
JEB had more allegiance to Kim than Renee

x Perfect Hash x 11:35 pm
Yeah I agree Dylan, I don't think he would have ratted her out if he was with her
If I was Kim, I'd play that Idol

Sagar D 11:35 pm
i'm still nervous though. if we fill jeb in on the plan to blindside kim and he tells her

x Perfect Hash x 11:35 pm
It's obvious she's the weak link and would be the target

Sagar D 11:35 pm
i feel like i would be the one they backdoor

x Perfect Hash x 11:35 pm
Really?

Sagar D 11:35 pm
yeah idk

Sagar D 11:35 pm
i've barely talked to jeb
or kim or renee

Maddie RealWorld 11:36 pm
i think we need to see who JEB says as the vote
and who sam and who chris says too

x Perfect Hash x 11:36 pm
I just messaged Chris
I will see if he responds


// Trouble in paradise. This one is probably worth a read. Hopefully I'm just being paranoid, but I'm worried about Kim/Renee (+ Sam/Jeb potentially). gahhhhhhhhhhhh

[Sagar]

Quick summary of that convo: Me, Hash, Dylan compared notes and realized that we might have been a little lazy on the social game once we made our F3 because there is a chance Kim/Renee are working together (FB games or something, apparently?) and JEB also knows them from the FB games. However, he told this to Dylan, so we're thinking he isn't with them really, otherwise he would have hid that fact. Sam also mentioned the alliance Kim asked of him (I mentioned that earlier), so that would make 4 people right there if all of this speculation is correct. We really need to work on making a F5 (without any attention-drawing to our F3) with Sam/Chris pronto. And the idols just make everything worse ugh.

Also this made me laugh:

x Perfect Hash x 11:42 pm
In a normal game, Kim would never have an idol

Maddie RealWorld 11:42 pm
yeah :/

Sagar D 11:43 pm
LMAO

[Sagar]

and ugh good fucking lord, JEB is so fucking clueless. he still doesn't have a proper screenname for AIM. he connects via his FB or some shit, so none of us see him when he's online and he's complaining that he's not a part of the tribe chat. i can't fucking add him if i don't have a screenname for him and he's not fucking making one for some reason. this isn't your shitty facebook game

[Sagar]

x Perfect Hash x 12:38 am
Oh yeah I had that too

Sagar D 12:38 am
don't know why i didn't see it before

x Perfect Hash x 12:38 am
Glad to have you JEB

jasonellis-bextor 12:38 am
Haha

jasonellis-bextor 12:38 am
Better late than never I spouse
Suppose

Sagar D 12:39 am
i don't think kim or renee have made their way in here yet either lol

x Perfect Hash x 12:39 am
Well at least you know it wasn't because we didn't like you, we just couldn't get it to work and thought it had


SO SMOOTH HASH
SO SMOOTH.


anyway i got jeb in our tribe chat. and he's like being all apologetic and hoping that we didn't think he didn't care or something. so that's a good sign of him being alone. now hash is telling me about how he suddenly remembers that jeb pretty much forced renee to sit out of the challenge, and renee was upset about it, so that might mean they're not together after all. score?

[Sagar]

[11/13/2012 6:04:21 PM | Edited 6:04:37 PM] David Haymes: Well, I told them you were on way more often than Kim and I guess Jeb posted it without talking to anyone on Skype or AIM
[11/13/2012 6:04:48 PM] Renee Morrissey: Kim works alot, I don't.
[11/13/2012 6:06:35 PM] Renee Morrissey: Why were Kim and I the only ones considered? Do you guys not like girls playing? I saw that the other tribe just voted out their only girl. I'm not feeling the love.

[11/13/2012 6:02:00 PM] David Haymes: Hey there Renee, how is your day going?
[11/13/2012 6:02:36 PM] Renee Morrissey: Good until I found out you guys were sitting me out for this challenge.


#wtfisgoingon
#crazybitchrenee

[Sagar]

Sagar D 12:44 am
holy fuck
that's honestly annoying. it has nothing to do with her being a girl...she's just not online ever

x Perfect Hash x 12:44 am
Yup lmfao
I posted in the F3 Squad when that happened but I guess you guys weren't online

Sagar D 12:45 am
oh yeah i didn't see that
wooow
she's a loose cannon huh

x Perfect Hash x 12:46 am
A little bit

Sagar D 12:46 am
so from the way she's getting all defensive
i'm assuming that she's assuming that she's getting voted out
which means she'll use the idol

x Perfect Hash x 12:46 am
Potentially
She also defended Kim

Sagar D 12:46 am
which means we can just tell everyone that the vote is renee, and then vote kim
like we can even tell kim that the vote is renee, so that kim tells renee to play her idol
and then kim is out
and renee's idol is flushed out

x Perfect Hash x 12:48 am
I love the sound of that


this could work, potentially. who knows! at least i know that renee/kim will probably vote hash, and i won't be the one leaving if both kim/renee use their idol.
