Tapu Lele and Harbinger were eliminated. Spicy.
Harbinger was useless dead weight. But Tapu was a potential challenge threat because of her performance in round 1.
Good riddance, I say~! But I still want to eliminate wenya zhu.

Spectator questions!
2 Players down already, sponsors being thrown around and that was only round 1
1) Do you know where the sponsorships came from?
2) Are you happy with the players who came out of the eliminator and how are you now are going to deal with them?
3) If a twist allowed you to swap partners would you and if yes, who would you want as a new partner and why?
4) Looking ahead, the overall winners of this game will be determined by challenges, would you/have you thrown any challenges to reduce your threat level?
5) In the spectator area we have a thread specifically for the best and funniest quotes of the game, are there any quotes from your PMs that you feel deserve a place in this thread?

👀 Classical? www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDJQhSs2ELEThis was my favourite song back when I was in high school band. It was the last song we played in the year in grade 12 so it brings back good memories. Kind of like when fresh summer air comes in through the window and the only thing that feels better is actually going outside or like when you go into the freezer in the supermarket and deeply inhale in the milk section. My favourite kind of music is the kind that makes me feel like my nostrils will get cold soon. Does that count as a genre? sent to coco pommel honestly just stream of consiousness works for PMing just like write and then hit send, include at least one question mark. i'm a 50 terabyte self evolving neural network double backflip off the high platform |

Ooh, wenya is calling us out in public. Spicy boi.
I guess we're sending district 12 right back to the eliminator. That's a bit unfortunate, I was hoping we could have tetra be safe this round.

Ideally we can do
11 vs 12
survivors vs 6
survivors vs 5
That should get us to a shuffle, then hopefully we can take shots at people like birdo and fenrir

No one is online at all.
I feel like this challenge is so easy that multiple teams will submit a submission of two zeros, so hopefully fenrir submits a 0 and we will end up in a tie for immunity or something.
And then we kill wenya again.

Round 3 Questions:
1. You are now participating in your third challenge. Are you liking the challenges so far or have you found them to be too easy? What sorts of challenges do you hope to see going forward?
2. Two Sponsors were played last round, WOW! That's intense. Do you think there are more Sponsors around for the taking? How did the Sponsor plays affect your game?
3. Have you given any thoughts to alliances? Which Districts do you see yourself aligning with? Are there any players you want to work with that you feel your partner might not?
4. Is Peeta Mellark the worst spec of all time for stealing half my questions?!
5. Provide a ranking of all of the players by who you trust to who you don't trust. (including your partner if you wish)

4b) Gonna take a stand here, is Peeta Mellark the best spec for giving the true hard hitting but also entertaining questions, not just every round but every stage of every round?
4c) Who would come out of the eliminator alive, me or Effie Trinket?

I feel like I've already done a good enough job answering these questions like an episode before you asked them so I'm just gonna ignore them and instead continue providing updates.
Shadow is a cutie. Too bad he's handcuffed to montreal.
Beetlejuice and I are getting into game talk already. District 1 and 9 are my favourites in this game. I'm gonna get into some deeper game talk with stitch next - might as well make use of this alliance while it lasts. I doubt that it will break up before the swap, and once the swap happens it's probably just every man for themselves, so I don't need to worry about stabbing the 3-4-7-9 block like I was thinking earlier. Beetlejuice says he would prefer to put up star and coco over tetra. So that would be a 5-11 nomination this round. Spicy. I guess it comes down to how much I trust tetra's ability to keep wenya on a leash. Honestly I don't trust district 12 very much. Everyone including myself seems to fall head over heels for tetra and now that I'm actually talking with her I don't feel so close to her anymore. I've been spoiled by River & Ulysses.
I'm okay with district 5 going up provided that I don't have to be the one to do it, since I told star on round 1 that I don't have any intentions of targeting him, so he would be righteously angry if i was to dunk on him like that and he survived.
I'm having a hard time deciding what I really want right now.
District 11 is basically doomed to go on the block because of montreal.
District 5 might end up as the new easiest boot if we all mutually realize "Hey, none of us actually like these people, why are they here again?"
But if people don't think too hard about it, District 12 will probably just end up on the block by default.
And if district 12 wins anything, I might go up because wenya sucks. I want him to suffer a swift and forgettable downfall arc.
Idk what my best move is right now, to throw or not to throw. If I throw, I have a 1 in 10 chance of going up. Probably a bit more than that because other people are non-factors or throwers themselves. And wenya will probably be trying hard, I don't know if tetra will be. So I'm in a real bad position either way, submitting a zero for this challenge would be likely screwing me long term and submitting a mediocre score has a chance of cutting me short. But I don't know if everyone will just get a perfect score. If only I could know what other people were doing.

Proposed working together with shuichi based on the river song connection. Might have come off a lil strong but he gets the message. Gonna shift to chill non game related talk until a need arises. Gonna go deep with stitch too this round, let's see if he's active enough that can get enough messages in to grow him into another deep ally like river/ulysses. Beetlejuice might be workable too.
I don't like how I am the one giving fenrir all the information and he doesn't say much to me, so I'm gonna start holding back with him. Yes I am aware he is busy this weekend.
I think I know why I feel so bad with tetra, it's because I'm like the kirby to her zod. I have all the information and no incentive to give it to her but I do it anyways. I think I just gotta take a hard steer away from game related talk and chat about school until her number is up.

Best case scenario this round: someone in 1479 wins immunity and nominates shadow/montreal, everyone else unanimously votes out wenya. I'm not winning immunity because i didn't submit a score of 0.
Basically 11/12 need to get voted out here with the emphasis on 12.

If district 12 wins immunity i wonder if we can convince them to put up kirby for his crimes against humanity
probably not since tetra said he liked kirby before but still thats a big lol

Did everybody throw this challenge or do they all just suck at basic strategy games?
It took me like 5 tries to get a 0.

Spectator Questions!
It appears that District 8 won that challenge, they must've really trained for it.
1) If a twist allowed you to send 2 individual players rather than a whole district to the eliminator, who would you send?
2) Do sponsors change how you talk to players before potentially voting for them? and is there anyone you suspect might have a sponsor?
3) Should there be a punishment for players who repeatedly ignore my questions and if so, what should it be?
4) Which District do you really want sent in this round, and which District (other than your own) would you want to protect this round?
5) In theory there's only 10 rounds in this game (2 players eliminated each round and final round being 4 players), which round of the game do you think is the right time to turn from quiet players to players who are threats to your game (either socially or challenge wise)
5b) Who are those threats to you?

Post by Zod on Mar 2, 2020 3:49:15 GMT
1. wenya zhu and wenya zhu again to make sure one of them gets eliminated
2. Apparently sponsors being in the game gave gilly crippling depression and she doesn't want to PM people much anymore.
4. kill 11/12/6/5, protect 134789, dont care about 10
5. in theory better not imply a buyback. seeing tapu lele be online so much and not in my confessional is mildly discouraging. after 2 more rounds or after the shuffle i think the knives will come out.
Once I finish midterms im gonna make a program or something to chart all the challenge performance of everybody and analyze who is a threat in challenges.
Socially who cares? Every "social threat" including myself and with the potential exception of ted cruz (who I haven't seen much of due to PM groups) has either gotten burned out or gotten busy or taken a break for at least 24 hours or at least had it feel like a long time so really nobody has the social endurance to sprint their way to the end of this mega massive marathon game. And here we are voting out all the people who don't talk like a bunch of clowns. I would LOVE to see districts 5 or 6 go out just so I don't have to put up with the boring light conversation, I would really prefer silence at this point. That's being a bit harsh but like yeah I would like less voices.
This phase we are going to eliminate some people who no one cares about. I hope montreal wins in the eliminator just so I don't have to deal with booting shadow later. If we end up nominating 11/12 and the survivors are tetra/shadow I feel like that's actually a hard pair to kill because both of those people are sort of generally pitied by everybody. Ofc if that happens then 5/6 are on the chopping block but still I want the boots to be as easy as possible for as long as possible and I shift into maximum coasting mode.

Alright. That's good to hear. No one else is really talking to me even though I've sent some messages out. I was getting paranoid lol. I have no interest in putting your district in at all Interesting PM. |

I have no game relationship with birdo whatsoever and she just sends me this out of nowhere as if she thinks she's in danger.
I'm not sure if she's becoming more self aware or not.
Weird.

Yeah, and 12 doesn't often tend to be here til morning anyways. But yeah, I think tentatively we're leaning towards nominating Donald/Pikachu? But I am not 100% on that. We both want to have a better idea of what people are thinking before we really are sure on that. But thanks for the support. |
