Specbot Questions! 1) Final 5, if you don't win immunity here, how safe are you feeling? what's the general feeling around who the likely boot is here? 2) If you're sent to the eliminator this round, who would you want to have as a partner for the final couple of rounds to give you the best chance of winning? 3) If you win here, who are you sending to the eliminator? 4) If you were to create a Hybrid bot that sums up how you've played how would you distribute your 100 points between STRENGTH, SAVVINESS, and SOCIABILITY? And what would be your general voting strat? 5) What's your biggest worry for the final couple of rounds? and how can you prevent it?

1)Ehhhhh? I don't feel incredibly safe, really. I literally have no idea who the boot's going to be, it really is up in the air at this point. I think 12's probably safe though all things considered. Maybe 8 as well.
2)Zod, considering he's like super good at challenges, unless I'm underestimating Fenrir's challenge ability. My second choice would probably be Kirby, 'cus he's pretty good at challenges too and I like him.
3)Hmm, maybe 3 tbh, provided he isn't voted out. I definitely need to take a shot at him sometime, and unless I feel really good about avoiding getting sent round 4 there would be no point in not taking the shot, really. Plus, if Zod does get knocked out it'll make it easier for me & Ted to win the future immunity challenges too.
4)Ooh, interesting. I'd say sociability would probably be up there, well as long as you ignore the past couple of rounds where I've been lazy as heck PM wise. I wanna say strength would be fairly high as well, which I didn't quite expect since I'm normally pretty mediocre at challenges, but I've been doing pretty decent in that regard this round. I am definitely not savvy at all though, and I struggle to even pull off the simplest of blindsides without mostly ghosting whoever I'm voting. So I'd say the distribution would probably be 50-10-40. I'd probably be voting out whoever is the savviest followed by strength, followed by whoever received the most votes so I'd be more likely to be in the "majority" if it was still tied.
5)My biggest worry is being nominated or voted out, and really I don't know if it's preventable at this point. My social game has been tanking pretty hard lately, and I feel the only way to possibly improve my position would be to start fresh with a new partner. I definitely don't want to go to the Eliminator on purpose though as I really want to make it as far as I can with Ted, and stalling it out as much as I can will help me make it farther in the game overall, and there's no guarantee I'd even beat Ted anyhow.

Jeeez I literally only knocked out 2 PMs over the last hour / hour and a half. I'm like really out of it this game. I've told Kirby my side of the vote and I'm hoping he doesn't take it too badly or try to start something out of it. I've also told Zod more/less that I'm leaning towards taking out D10 and D12, which is not technically the truth since I have no idea what I'm going to do this round yet, but I'm sure he's probably happy to hear it. Zod thinks he's likely going to be the next target and that he'd be OK with it if he was sitting next to D10 and D12 since he thinks he can crush them in the Eliminator if he's paired with them when they're nominated again, which I'm not as optimistic about but OK.

Zod says that Kirby's also interested in chipping one of 10/12, which... makes me feel a bit suspicious, and apparently he's paranoid of being played by everyone, but that could just be a facade.

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm pretty sure Ted would be down to nominate D12. Unfortunately he only popped in for a second it seemed so I still don't know what's running through his mind, but I'm hoping he gets back to me soon. I'll run that by him too in the meantime. So what is the current plan, to nominate D10 and vote D3? ??

Well, as far as I can tell the vote is like between D3 and D10, with your vote being the tiebreaker there. You know business as usual for you. I think how this goes down likely decides how the game plays out. So I suppose the question really is, what do YOU want? Suuuuusan why do you have to hit me with the hard questions?? I mean it's not really hard, but I don't know if I want to admit the answer to her. Also it sounded like Zod meant to send that last message to D12 instead, lol.

I get the sense that Zod is super paranoid. Like he keeps double checking if "nominating D12 / voting out D10" is the "plan", so much so that he flunked up a message he sent to me as you saw just earlier. It's making me stressed out, and I really don't like being stressed out.

I feel bad about lying to Zod and Susan, and it didn't even really matter this close to deadline. Why do I always resort to burning bridges with everyone? Also I've realized that my "Scheming Schemers" topic has basically become the Welcome threads I've dreaded about, oops. Maybe I'll bookmark the posts by episode for convenience if I can get around to it later.

Alright, so that went exactly as I anticipated. While I was out earlier I realized I hadn't even considered the possibility of voting out 8, which I really should have considering they're pretty good at challenges as well. I think I was just so focused on nerfing 3 that I didn't take that into account. Though then again, a district of like Zod/Kirby would probably be even worse, so like I think we made the right call either way. Though I do feel that because of that it might've been easier to push out 8 if I'd just stick with them. I'm also worried that I was a lot better off just not rocking the boat and underestimated how likely I am to survive next round, but like if 3 did win immunity next round I don't trust him not to take a shot at me, and at that point they might be near unstoppable, so I think ultimately I had to take a shot at 3. I'm putting all of my energy towards manifesting a Fenrir/Ulysses district, as unlikely as that is, as that would probably give me & Ted the best chance to snag a third immunity win. In other news, I'm glad the deadline's pretty generous so I can step away from the game for a while, because that last vote was a lot more time consuming than I was anticipating.

Aah!!! I'm pretty happy about the Eliminator results, though admittedly more from a game standpoint than a personal one. I didn't expect the Eliminator challenge to be over by the time I got back, but at least I have more time for this challenge now. I'll see what it is when I make my new Episode thread.
