Hey! I guess I should introduce myself. I've played a fair amount of survivor but I haven't played in years. Last time I played, I got 6th place and honestly didn't regret much. I threw caution to the wind and just had fun in a game and it went pretty well. This time around? Well I don't feel like I'm playing around as much out of the gate. My energy is more focused on how to play this game now. Absence has made me rusty, experiences outside of this community has changed how I interact online. I have no idea what to expect. I haven't paid attention to the meta, no focus on how games are being played lately. My only research is reading the (phenominal) resources yall have for new players.
Something that the resources don't hit on is how to strategize PMing. The core mechanic in all of this is communication and how you PM is going to determine how others are going to interact with you. How do I want people to look at me in this game? I feel like I'm coming on as a bit neurotic. I can deal with neurotic. Maybe that's not the vibe I wanna put out.
Anyways!! It has been a while since I've been around. I'm excited to get to see the old MS crew at some point and to interact with y'all more. Hypehype.
shoot me some questions whenever you can specs. im a bit drunk and sorta bored!

I don't kiss and tell, silv.
As for what I do, i like jigsaw puzzles, watching hockey and spending quality time with my partner. I also spend time with my two cats, whom I love very dearly.

I think that'll do it for my first night.
No sign of Cleric.
Monk is just okay. My PMs kept getting a lot of topics dropped. they mostly focused on talking about survivor (the show) and it was hard to get out of that. Gonna watch second chances to connect at some point.
Ranger is decent. I'm hoping to get something going with them if it continues. I sent out a bit of a feeler PM where I dropped a bit of how I feel on Monk. If Ranger reciprocates (or better yet expands) then ayyy maybe we've got a stew cookin

Day 2:
One message from Ranger.
That's it.
Cleric was online and uhhhh guess they didn't feel like chattin.
aw fuck
Follow-up on ranger though - they reciprocated on the monk opinion. nothing extra, seemingly keeping it safe but I still think there's a chance we can make something work and stay aligned. Unless stuff gets weird, I think Ranger will be my alliance in waiting.

Hello Bard, sorry for being so late, I slept like a rock last night. Anyway, I have some bould quarries for you:
1. Based on the conversations you had so far, do you think your tribe will be cohesive/good at the first challenge of the game? Why or Why not?
2. Your tribe is trapped on a deserted isle with no food or water for several days, it becomes clear that one of you will need to be eaten for the rest of you to survive. Who would be eaten and why? Similarly, who would lead the charge on this?
3. Do you have any ideas to overcome your ring rust? Or just hoping you get back into the groove again?

Hey there Rock, I heard you had it out with a Hard Place. I hope all is good. I know I wouldn't wanna be stuck between that.
1)I think that Monk, myself and Ranger will do fine at the challenge. We all seem to be interested in what it will be, which signals to me that we're all waiting for it and are invested in doing our best. The issue is that Cleric has not been around. It's been less than a day, so I can give the benefit of the doubt. But Survivor Tip #1 is show the hell up when the game starts or at least shoot out messages at your earliest availability. Cleric has been on but no messages to me (I sent one to them!).
We'll see once the challenge actually starts. We just won't know until we've got a chance to work together to find out!
2) Well, Monks are generally skinny boys, no meat on the bone. Ranger prides himself in being a woodsperson, so I'm guessing they've got some real muscle and meat on them. I wouldn't want to be rude to Cleric since we haven't had a chance to chat yet. So I would definitely eat Ranger, no question.
I am 100% the lead-taker when it comes to eating Ranger. Of course, I would obtain informed consent first.
Are you 100% sure there's no ubereats delivery tho?? i could really go for a Mr. Beast Burger (TM)
3) Well, my plan is to just throw myself into the whole thing. I figured out how to play this game once and got 2nd my first outing, I'm pretty sure I can figure it out again! I'm curious how my playstyle will have changed over the years. I think I'll being an emotional boyo thoooo so look forward to whatever shenanigans I will cry about it here :')
As for tangible plans, I think I'm going to lean on my tribemates a bit. I'm not playing up some new person narrative, but rather just a narrative that I've only played basic bitch survivor games. I'd like for them to guide me a bit to get a feel for how they're going to play the game. I can hopefully use that to tailor my own actions and gameplay.
