I had a whole first impressions post but then my computer died and took part of my soul with it and I just don't think I have it in me to retype it all in as much detail.
Basically, Shuichi and Stitch are who I count as my closest allies. Susan is a sweetheart, but I can't tell if she is being that way for everyone to try and win a popularity vote or if she's actually just the nicest human ever. So I'm a little skeptical of her at the moment but we will see! It sounds like we are going to try and work some sort of an alliance including those I've mentioned and Kirby, Gilly, Zod, and Ted. Gilly and Zod I'm on the fence about seeing as I haven't had as much communication with them. Gilly was giving me a weird vibe like she wasn't picking up what I was putting down. We will see how that goes. Zod is not as in-depth as I can be, which is fine, but it is hard for me to read people who are concise lol. Kirby is a fun dude and I think will be great to work with, I hope he feels the same!
I also really like Pikachu. Birdo is awesome. As I've said, no one strikes me as a big ol' meanie liar face just yet but we shall see! I was surprised that Wenya called 12 out already for using numbers. Bold, I guess. Other than that seems like a relatively fun group thus far!
I am hoping to be paired with Shuichi or Stitch. Stitch is a little more paranoid and I think maybe it would be advantageous for me to partner with him in case we were to face the Eliminator. Shuichi is who I would say my closest ally is...but I fear he would smack me down hard and quick in the Eliminator lol. Let's see how the first challenge goes I guess?!

Round 2 questions:
1. You are now part of a District! Your District's theme is specifically centered around a specific niche in The Hunger Games. Do you feel like a part of you fits the theme, or is it mostly just a silly gimmick you don't really care much for? Why do you feel this way? 2. As you are in a District, that means you have been paired up with someone. Is this an ideal person for you to be with or do you have reservations? What makes you feel this way? 3. Challenge scores & ratings were put up yesterday. Were there any surprises or did it all pretty much unsurprise you for the most part? What specifically seemed interesting about these ratings? 4. PM groups were decided yesterday, meaning you now have half the amount of people to talk to as you are used to. Is this a relief? Or are you finding some difficulties in trying to now navigate a less open social field? Have you been utilizing your District forum to exchange communication with your partner for the half you are no longer allowed to talk to? (We hope you might at some point so specs can see what sorts of info you are exchanging!) 5. The next challenge is up and it is your first District Challenge for Immunity? How do you feel about your chances? Do you feel your partner will help or hinder your ability to complete it? Elaborate.
Bonus question just for you:
6. You found a Sponsor! That's super exciting! How did you find this sponsor? What were your feelings when you found it? Do you plan to tell your partner about this Sponsor or keep it to yourself? Feel free to share any details on the matter.
May the odds be ever in your favor <3

If this was actually just a fight to the death between the characters, who would win? How do you think you would do?

Spectator questions! Would love to hear from you guys about your pairings and how you're feeling 1) How much have you and your partner talked before? 2) What do you feel you bring to this partnership? 3) What should be your team name? The punnier the better 4) What twists would you like to see in this game? 5) What's 3 things you and your partner have in common?
Also congratulations on the sponsorship

How did you find this sponsor? What were your feelings when you found it? Do you plan to tell your partner about this Sponsor or keep it to yourself? Feel free to share any details on the matter. May the odds be ever in your favor <3 1. I mean, I've never considered myself a glitzy fancy lady, but, I do like the prestige I guess? Overall it's probably more silly. I am concerned about being in District 1 because we will literally never be able to shake the target that puts on our back simply because I was able to make right angles a little more right than others lol. 2. I feel totally confident in my partner! I am really glad I went with him. I debated back and forth about putting Shuichi or Stitch as my 1st option but in the end I do think it was smart of me to pick Shuichi. I am worried, however, if we do end up in the Eliminator and I don't have my sponsor anymore. He will wipe the floor with me lol. 3. I did NOT want to win lol. I truly did not think I would, either. I've always had my booty kicked HARD by others in challenges like this so I figured it didn't matter how hard I tried. I also didn't want to wind up with a target on my back from winning the first one, but here we are lol. Tapu WAS really close to my score so hopefully people keep that in mind. I know a lot of others tried to not win for similar reasons...so I think the real threats haven't made themselves known yet. I will say I don't get some of the ratings. 12 getting 12? Okay lol. Does it matter in the long run that I got an 11? Who knows?! (you. you know lol) 4. It's sort of a relief? It's still a lot of people. Except Harbinger, Montreal, and Wenya must not like me so that's three less people to talk to I suppose. My partner and I haven't been too focused on swapping info just yet. But, I just created a thread so hopefully we can get that going 5. Honestly neither of us want to win. Shuichi is a smarty though and prepared a lot more than I did, thank goodness. Hopefully we did well enough to not look like dummies, but not so amazing that we won and added another target to our backs! I have no idea how people could have strategized better. I found it to be extremely challenging, even before the board broke like 5 times during it lol. BONUS HECK YEAHHHHHH 6. I found it because I obsessively scoured the entire page lol. I highlighted everything I could highlight...viewed it in different ways...and it wasn't until I started moving pictures around that I finally found the banner clue! I was freaking excited because it's what I spent all of my free time looking for lol. It makes me wonder if there are more out there........... I haven't told him yet and I keep going back and forth on whether or not I should. The only thing that makes me hesitate is that I am unsure if somehow pairs will get changed at some point. I can't imagine a HYBRID game (meaning there is still Survivor influence) would allow pairs to stay together the whole time. But maybe?

If this was actually just a fight to the death between the characters, who would win? How do you think you would do? Me, personally....I would die probably rather quick. My knee is fractured IRL so that's a big ol' nope from me! As River? Oh...I would do pretty freaking well! I have a TARDIS, duh

The punnier the better 4) What twists would you like to see in this game? 5) What's 3 things you and your partner have in common? Also congratulations on the sponsorship 1. Quite a bit! Shuichi was one of the first to reach out to me and we have chatted ever since! 2. I feel like I bring a strong social game, or I hope I do. I'm truly not a challenge beast (ignore that I won the first challenge, that literally never happens) and I have the dumb about a lot of this. I am not as experienced as probably most of them with online games so I don't know all of the hacks and stuff. But, I do know how to connect with people quickly and I have made it to the jury both times I've played previously so I am not a complete sack of potatoes! 3. Shriracha? Because it kind of combines our names and we SPICY AND HAWT?! 4. None. I hate twists. Lol. I mean, I like to know what I'm getting myself into and feel a sense of comfort that way...but I had a feeling this would have quite a few twists and turns. I have been thinking that perhaps certain districts will have to face off against each other in smaller groups, kinda like how in the actual arena you are rarely fighting everyone at the same time lol. I just don't want to lose Shuichi! 5. We like to talk strategy, we aren't afraid of making bold moves, and we are SPICY AND HAWT! Aweee thank you! <3

Spectator questions! Results of the second challenge are in, Birdo and Tracer took the victory 1) How safe are you feeling right now? 2) If you had the only vote here and didn't need to worry about social politics, who would you send to the eliminator? 3) Are you going to focus on threats or on quieter players? 4) If you're sent to the eliminator, do you think you'd make it back out? 5) In theory, half of everyone you vote off will come back from the eliminator, how will you manage their anger with you voting them off?

I feel great! Either Fenrir/Zod are really going to vote Wenya/Tapu or they are doing the most elaborate and dumb big move ever of making everyone believe that's who they are voting for because that's who they want but they also want to control the second pair in the eliminator. Actually, now that I type it out (however grammatically incorrect it was) that's not a bad plot twist lol. 2. Assuming I get to pick 4 completely different people, pairs aside, it would be Harbinger, Montreal, Wenya, and Tapu. Harbinger and Montreal are about as inactive as they come and Wenya/Tapu are a bit of a hot mess express currently. 3. Well..lol. I was hoping we could get rid of both Harbinger and Montreal this round and kill 2 inactive birds with one challenge stone but I guess Fenrir/Zod have slightly different plans! Can't argue with who they want to send (and boy do I NOT want to be involved in that. Good luck shaking that target). 4. Honestly, no. I fully anticipate Shuichi to be able to kick my time traveling booty in any and all challenges. I can tell he has WAY more experience. However, I may be more resourceful by finding things like, you know, a sponsor! 5. For Shadow/Montreal it's pretty simple. Be more active and we won't vote for you lol. Montreal may not be able to come back from his level of inactivity, though. I feel a little bad for Wenya because it sounds like Tapu really dropped the ball in the challenge and there is trouble in paradise, but also, it takes two to challenge tango. Regardless of whether Wenya or Tapu makes it, I don't need to worry about their rage because Fenrir/Zod are the ones who sealed that deal.

Spectator questions! So Tapu Lele v Wenya Zhu and Shadow v Montreal Impact 1) Did you know that these were the districts being sent to the eliminator? (either by the immune pair or from feeling confident on the vote) 2) If you knew, did you in any way warn these districts about being sent and if so, what was the reaction 3) What 2 players do you want to win this eliminator challenge? 4) Describe (in as much detail as possible) the current gladiator battle that is currently going on in the eliminator 5) What's the juiciest gossip you've heard so far this game?

Yup! Both lol 2. Nope! I tried contacting Montreal to say hi and they never responded so they can't be that surprised. I thought about warning Wenya, but I don't have any plans on working with him in the future so I decided to just keep the info to myself. 3. I would like the winners to be Shadow for sure and Wenya, I think lol. I'm hesitant about Wenya because he called out 12 early on in the game. 4. I imagine that Wenya is going to run, not walk, into this ready for the fight of his life. He will give a monologue about how it was supposed to be him and Tapu til the end, and that Tapu forced them into this current situation. Then Tapu will probably shrug his shoulders. I anticipate Tapu to be the stronger competitor, so he will come out victorious. Unless, just maybe Wenya unleashes his full fury and pulls out a miraculous win?! Montreal also seems like the stronger competitor, from what I can tell so far. Shadow is going to speed into the arena and collect coins and stuff. Montreal is going to play the long game and keep his cool. For being as inactive as he is, he gives off a sort of confidence that will get him through...unless he is too confident and Shadow goes all zoom zoom and beats him! 5. Wenya throwing Tapu under the bus so quickly was pretty juicy lol. He flipped the switch realllllll quickly from "Tapu's got a good head on him" to "READ ALL OF MY RECEIPTS FOR HOW HE SABOTAGED US AND HE IS A MEANIE FACE" Okay, he didn't say that word for word on the last one, but that was the gist of it lol. The other juicy gossip is that Katniss has a mushy status post about her undying love for you AND follows her....but you don't even follow her back! That's just cold, man!

I don't want people to know that I found the sponsor by being snoopy and sneaky. I want them to think that they *could* have gotten it if they hadn't all purposefully thrown the first challenge. So, I told them I got it by winning the first challenge as a reward for my performance! The bait has been very successfully taken, to the point where they are wondering if Montreal got his from getting last in the challenge. Which is a possibility I suppose, but I suspect someone as secretive as Montreal found it through more creative ways.
