Welcome Tracer and Birdo! I am thrilled to make your acquaintance as you prepare for this years incredibly exciting Hunger Games. District 10 is highly adored by we folks in The Capitol, for without the livestock you produce, how would we enjoy the Filet Mignon or Steak au Poivre? While I might not be able to name a specific Victor or Tribute from your District in recent memory, do not let that discourage you! This just means that you have fresh room to blaze a trail and create a reputation for yourselves! I expect that should you win, there is no way that your District will maintain it's reputation of 'No significant characters in the source material.' Whatever that means. Either way, this is your board. You may use it for anything that you want! Communicate, strategize, perform challenges, or simply encourage one another to be the most successful team you can be. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Ulysses is someone who I don't know if I have a read on. I was being playful and "flirting" at the beginning, but they were not receptive at all. Obviously I was just joking around but I don't think they liked the "character" side of things. I would be very interested in working with Ulysses & Beetlejuice, I just hope that is a bridge we can get over.
From my end, it's been pretty quiet. I try hard to talk to people but I don't really get a lot of messages back. Tapu Lele is someone who I don't think likes me that much. They have been cold with me since the beginning. Gilly & Sachuira haven't responded to me much.
12 talks in numbers, so it's hard to have good conversation with them because of this.
Among the remaining people, I've talked to Pikachu and Tetra the most. I feel really bad for Tetra because their partner is very inactive. I also enjoy talking to Ted.

Oh that's terrifying. When I was talking to people pre pairing, Suichi and Gilly were two of the people I chatted the most with. I hope they just have been slightly less online, rather than just being cold to you. If I had to bet, I would expect them to be heavily involved in their tribe's organization. If it's not them, do you have any idea who might start running things?
Gilly used longer form and less frequent messages with me, so maybe try bigger paragraphs/long form with her? Shuichi and I chatted a lot about music and he seemed super interested in that topic. Maybe you can get him chatting about that?
I got the same feeling from tapu. Hopefully that's just how he/she is.
I totally agree with the numbers bit for 12. Have you mentioned it to him? I bet if you asked he'd be willing to break the gimmick. I loved his gimmick personally, but we also weren't doing much heavy game chatting.
I'm happy to hear you're interested in working with

Whoops.
I'm happy to hear you're interested in working with Beetlejuice. I think ulysses is fine with you, otherwise I doubt he'd have proposed the alliance between our pairs. I hope you guys can get that sorted out when you end up chatting with each other.
The Donald has been relatively quiet with me. Stitch as well, but I've felt better about my chats with Stitch. I'll work a little harder to get close to stich and try to make something real there.

I don't know if they forgot about me or what. I sent them (suichi and Gilly) messages but they haven't gotten back to me yet. Maybe they just missed it. When results come out I think I'll message them again.
I asked 12 if they'd stop kinda coyly, but they wouldn't stop. That's ok, gimmicks are meant to be fun anyways.
From my group, the people I have talked to the most are Pikachu, Ted and Tetra. I'd like to work with Tetra, but with an inactive partner I don't know how ideal that would be. Ted and Stitch were two people who I talked to a LOT pre-districts. So that could be a possible pair for us if you like talking to Stitch?
As far as my group, I don't know exactly who is running things.

And yeah, I think that's just more me being scared that Ulysses doesn't like me. I would love that alliance with our districts though.

Nothing official except for ulysses, but Zod and Susan have both indicated their willingness to work with me. They haven't talked about a district alliance though. I'm talking to Stich more and hoping we can ferry that into something serious as well.
HBU?

Nothing really, but I have been trying to get closer to the people I mentioned before. I am sure alliances will start once the results come out.

You sexy, sexy, immune beast. Let's go!
Well, good for us. I'm happy we're immune.
I guess this is a good time to leverage our position and make as many friends as possible?
I was not expecting to win the challenge.

I’m shocked we won. I am so happy we did, but holy shit what do we do!?
My gut instinct right away was just sending in whoever got last in the challenge to set a “precedent”. If we make it fair and send in the people who did the worst, it makes us look fair.
Also, I think we can avoid being sent in by others because we aren’t going to get last in these challenges I don’t think.
What do you think? Would you be fine with that?

I don't think we should let ourselves be constrained by challenge performance, and I know other people won't constrain themselves like that. I think we should try to use the nomination to make as many friends as possible, and nominate people we both don't like/who won't work with us.
I totally agree that we're probably not going to do poorly in these challenges, as long as their team-based like last one.
That said, I'm super down to nominate the worst challenge performers last time of Wenya/Tapu lele. It sounds like you're having a hard time chatting with tapu and I'm having a rough time with wenya as well.
Are people asking you to nominate people in particular?

The only thing people have been upset about is the 12/Susan shit. Which I don’t really care about.

And you’re right, people won’t be constrained to choosing based off of challenges.

People are upset about the 12/susan shit? Can you go into more detail about it? I've heard nothing.

On the results, they discussed that 12 found the source code and had disqualified himself. Instead of them being disqualified they let someone step in as Susan’s partner. They thought it was unfair.

Are people talking about voting susan/12 for that, or just more minor annoyance with how the whole thing went? They didn't even win immunity, so why does it matter?
For our nomination, I'd like to nominate either district 11 (Shadow/montreal), or District 2 (Tapu/Wenya). As far as activity, these are the districts I've had the hardest time chatting with both partners, and it's sounding like you've had a similar experience?

I was telling people who I was thinking of putting in, and I was telling people they were safe in our eyes. I feel like I just wasted my time.
I didn't even talk to Fenrir because he didn't speak to me, and now they're the ones deciding. Now if they don't choose District 2, they will know we were shit talking them.
This really really sucks.
