What is your favourite PM/message you've gotten in an LSG?

For large social games such as Survivor where the primary mechanic is social interaction.

Do I REALLY suck? That's up to you to decide.

Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.

Definitely DID suck, in the end...Probably.

Nobody's talking to me tonight, and I'm a sad Malphite. :(

I know we had to do what we had to do last round but I didn't expect this kind of sadness afterwards. I think I'll be okay. These are just the types of things in the game that are very hard to do. I got really excited about potentially pulling off some big thing because I've never been able to do it before and now I see the consequences and I am reminded why it takes such a toll on me to play these games. I think I'll be okay. I think I'll be okay. :\

Moving forward, I want to go to the end with you. I've said that already. But just thinking out loud, here's what I think our path forward COULD be. Please let me know if you feel that I'm wrong!

Final 10: We split the votes 4-3-3, with 4 on Amumu and 3 on Lissandra. Amumu has to play an idol and Lissandra goes home.
Final 9: With Amumu left idol-less, he's now looking for friends. We grab him, Garen, Lulu, and J4 and flip the table on Kindred, who most people want gone anyway.
Final 8: We keep Orianna happy after the Kindred elimination by taking out Amumu this round.
Final 7: Me, you, J4, Garen, Lulu have a supermajority and take out Orianna.
Final 6: Probably take out Garen. J4 and Garen have some beef and he probably won't be cool going into Final 5 with him. Could also see Shaco going here instead if J4 changes his mind.

That leaves me, you, J4, Lulu, and Shaco/Garen at F5. At that point, I think J4 would be solidly with us if we're going into this after giving him who he wants the previous round, and it means we'd be in an advantageous position because Lulu would have more loyalty to the two of us than to the others. I know you're not set on a trio with Lulu, so I'm not trying to force that. I am, though, trying to figure out how we get from where are now to at least F5 while putting the two of us in a position where we're unlikely to get eliminated.

I actually am a lumberjack eh? Down here in Quebec forestry is one of the lifebloods of our economy, eh. Fun fact eh? I know more aboot wood than just aboot anyone else in this game I reckon. Maybe that can help us have some common ground to talk aboot. Or will I have to chop you down? Time will tell eh. Sorry if I got to to do that. Je suis comme ci comme sa if that were to happen, eh!
Post-game this is actually more absurd because it's a Canadian not from Quebec pretending to be stereotypical French-Canadian to a Canadian wondering wtf he was doing. :lol:

That seemed obvious to me! What else did you think your name would be? It makes me regret not going with Raw Horseflesh.
How could you have picked that without thinking you'd be asked new and interesting position names? Ours could be called the Hot Spread. For Caramel is also commonly spread on things like me~
Despite all the Wasabi puns that others have thought of I'm terrible at them. :( 'Wasabi up?' isn't even my invention!
I think we did well too. I'm aching to punch through another one!


This is what Shadow thinks in an appropriate third pm. Raw horseflesh and bondage

Malphite's response when I used the phrase "satellite Internet" in a PM to him. Orianna's and my exchange about how our bedrooms are laid out. Half of Teemo's shitfacedposts.

LoL premerge was wonderful.

Spoiler: Frieza's first pm, addressed to me, maybe?
HIIIIIIIIIIYA!

Nappa Loveing 15 person merge right? HOLY Mr. Popo's Stool WTF is up with this?

Well... 'merge'

whatever.

Anyways, What interesting or fun life stuff have you been involved with recently? Got any fun or interesting plans in the near future? You watching anything particularly interesting?

Game crap now.

Any fun or interesting tales from yonder game land? Weird occurrences, item usage or anything. General summarization of game, whatevers good.

As for me. If you've got any questions feel free to shoot away. I'll answer whatever comes my way so dont worry about anything.

Wherever you are, whatever time of day it is I hope you're doing well. Hopefully we can banter more in the future, and I'll see ya around.

You have to work with me at the moment. Otherwise, the TC2 vote can be manipulated and you'll be sent back. If I'm voted out, that's going to be my only possible move, and I'll have the votes to do it with the original votes used to vote for Jack. So you need me to stay alive.

However, I also need you alive. Without you alive, I'll just be taken out right after I replace you, and then we'll both be screwed. Therefore, our best move together is not to vote for each other, but to work with each other, even if there are trust issues in the air.

If we agree to work together, we can come up with a plan that keeps us both alive, as opposed to damning both of us. What do you say?
