1) I'd estimate that Stitch and I exchanged a medium amount of messages during the shipwreck. They were dense in quality though. I think I was one of his most active conversations due to his schedule.
2) Lovability
3) Our team name is District 7. It seems unwise to try to pick a different name than the one assigned to us by the wise Capitol.
4) I would love it if the Katniss picture thing only worked for the first person to find it, and the first person to find it was me. I'm expecting that pairs will eventually get split up, and I think it'll help keep the game from feeling stale. But I'm not looking forward to the chaos that brings. I hope the weird score ranking things never matter!
5) Pass

If results aren't delayed, I'll give you some in-depth confessionalizing tonight. Thoughts on every player, both as an individual and in the context of their pair!

A situation arose and a deadline extension has occurred. More details will be provided with results, but we appreciate your patience. Results will be provided as soon as we can post them. Six more weeks of poor confessionalizing.

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?

1) Pretty safe. I don't think Birdo would let me go this early.
2) District 2.
3) I'd prefer for inactives and poor conversationalists to go first.
4) Maybe. I think I did better than Stitch in this challenge, but he beat me at the eye test.
5) I'll tell them to git gud.

If I'm in a different group from 12 for the next two rounds, I'll become a good confessionalist.

Good God. Every time I open a PM from 12, I immediately want to close it. I know I'm a bad person, but this punishment is disproportionate.

I just made a philosophy joke and a nuclear physics joke in the same PM to 12 and I'm still not enjoying the conversation. Imagine!

Using District images for the results looks really slick. Big fan.

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?

Post by Ted Cruz on Feb 27, 2020 4:46:07 GMT
1) Yes.
2) Shadow seemed to already know that he was going in before he and I talked about it. He doesn't seem to understand why his District got picked, though. He knows that Montreal's activity is a problem, but he doesn't understand how underwhelming he himself has been.
3) Montreal and Tapu Lele winning would make for an easy pair to target in the future.
5) Donald and Pikachu might hate each other. Wenya might hate Tapu Lele too.

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?

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?

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?

I would like to take a moment to appreciate whichever mod picked this picture of Ted Cruz for my avatar. Did 2016 use the same picture? It's such a perfect picture.
