So edge.

Tulsi hesitating to vote out "where is he?" Vermin STILL after Arnold's elimination coupled the O'Malley elimination looked like someone who didn't actually want to play ball.

Going onto different tribes and being like, "yeah let's eliminate more people who happen to be Hawkeye" also doesn't help.

Gotta topple that elusive xofelf! You're higher than elusive at least though.

Tbf Tulsi was actually genuine about the Vermin elim the round of his blindside (his confessional says so), Jindal was offered to him.

I mean, once the first convention hit, I totally saw that coming.

That Cruz was the one to slip through was surprising tbh.

This one isn't true, I don't think. She got booted for rarely talking to people. I had 10 messages with her, and no one else seemed to have had many pms either. Then she lied about having seen the Koch forums/what clues she had to a few people when she was seen on it multiple times.

Like seriously, if Hiplop goes instead of me, this game probably doesn't devolve into the granite v hawk eye stuff.

Maybe not but based on people's confessionals it looked like lots of ppl wanted 5 from their original tribe in f9 but stuff couldve changed

Depends a lot on who's left at that point. F9 was when I wanted to start my blindside rampage to get me and Rubio to the f2

I think part of the issue was also that nobody from granite spoke at the first debate other than trump and tulsi, which made it really hard to build cross-tribe connections

I was ignoring you because I didn't like you sorry </3 I had around 40 with most people.

Ironically the only person I actually liked was Tulsi who I thought was Cephrir

I mean I'm glad to hear it but I always feel like I'm the worst player to see make it far because I'm so boring and inept :P
Yay at best confessional tho <3 that drives me

Also reveals should always coincide with meets because it was really neat to see the reveal and then me, hiplop, Sleepy, and BROseidon were all able to chat about the game over dinner (along with spectators and other interested parties), and that was super neat!

I don't think it's quiet a fair characterization to say they were dumped
because
they were big. They were dumped because of what they were doing. Barbara was big all game. Like really. It was only once she was playing the granites so hard that things started to go sour for her. Even then it was much more that Cruz saw the betrayal coming and that's why she was taken out.

Like despite Rand's claim he was a target when he was paired to Barbara they totally weren't. If people were getting targeted for being big, that pair should have been in huge trouble because the granites didn't care about him except for only the fact he was a granite and Barbara should have made them a huge target right? When in reality her being in the pair took them totattly off the table as a realistic vote.

Also, I knew I was in danger for a good while early, but I didn't realize just how much so. I honestly don't think there would have been any room during Hawkeye or Palmetto to not get booted reading confessionals and the like

I think the only other gripe I had this game was that despite Ted's F5 being a very good move for him personally, keeping lincoln was safer overall for our combined chances than rand. I guess this is something that I addressed in my confessional, but yeah. It's not something I would do, anyway
