actually i was thinking that the two of us would be placed on that tribe if we can agree on it and make it uneven. i dont wanna misunderstand the rules or anythin but will mods confirm that the two of us have to put the same tribe or do we have to put different tribes?? Sorry, I don't think the post was very clear on this. The two of you are going to different tribes.

I don't really have a lasting connection to Star Wars. I was on the wrong side of the Dark Rey vote and then Finn replaced out and Grogu is a replacement I only managed three total messages exchanged with before this swap.
For the former olives on maroon, the Droids hydra is both new players but they can carry on a decent conversation, Grogu I was still feeling out and can't say much about at all, and ...Bees? I would say is the most solid all-arounder of a Survivor player.
On the other side, the Lindsays were chatty but didn't make it easy to keep things straight between the two halves of the hydra, Dave Thomas, Founder of Wendy's is really schticky and insists everyone call him Dave Thomas, Founder of Wendy's which is getting old, Maggie has a bit of a schtick herself but is much more bearable and Zero gave me the impression of just pent up energy waiting to overplay. Like, he could easily have ended up the same way as how you describe the Snow Leopard elim. Tim was a super quick consensus vote because he wasn't talking and wouldn't even tell anyone who he wanted to vote for (spoiler, he voted for me and didn't ever tell anyone he was doing so in advance) but Zero was complaining to me during the vote that it was a boring vote and he wanted more to happen.
I think Bees is my most solid connection but I also think Bees probably has the most solid connections of anyone. Our senses of humor meshed well.

waaait what. so your guys voted out dark rey when you were stickin up for her and then the other dude ended up votin her out? damn ok i guess this is kinda more agreeable after all. so yea im not really like. too interested in savin gummy bear even if i consider him reliable and he does the same but like. i feel like if other people want him out then stickin my neck out mighta gotten me on the wrong side a things which would have been bad
i dont think we ended up with anyone who had a real gimmick except for ranger himself which was more entertainin than it was grating cos it made for a lotta funny stories. i always struggle to converse with people who come up with one sentence pms or ones who lean too hard into a gimmick tho so i can see where youre comin from there. but yeah we actually thought that you guys woulda wanted to go to tribal to cement bonds more and the way i see it it like. sounds like there were a lotta cracks in your tribe and thats pretty much what some a us said that we were explicitly hopin for cos we were almost guaranteed for some a us to get swap screwed. i thought the movie stars tribe was a powerhouse at the beginnin but like. im gettin proven wrong a lot so who knows.
YO i was gonna wait a bit to propose that to you cos i didnt wanna come off as overbearin or too forward or some shit so im really glad you broke the ice on that front cos i was gonna put it out there either tomorrow or in a few hours if were both still online. hoenstly you didnt have to do a jedi mind trick for me cos i think that with our time here its most beneficial to like. become allies anyways especially since were representatives from different tribes who dont have to vote one another. also bein guaranteed a spot in the final twelve is really fun too even if there are most likely gonna be returnees from hole
ANYWAY since were allies now im obviously gonna put in a good word for you with my dudes back on the chocolate tribe and generally stick up for you cos you already seem like a really chill dude. the more people you can count on the better here

So, if Finn was still in the game the whole ordeal I went through with that vote would be a lot more relevant, but yes I wanted to keep Rey but being in 2nd place I had no real leverage and Finn was very frustrating to deal with through the whole process. He voted Rey, I voted Droids, Droids vote Rey so their 3rd place vote sent her out after Finn and I split votes.
I'm a fan of D&D so I actually look forward to a decent tabletop style RP, hopefully I get the chance to meet Ranger later on in the game! Yeah I don't know, after Tim there wasn't really any obvious next boot so everyone seemed pretty relieved to avoid TCs but I am definitely of the opinion that the strongest bonds are the ones that are tested by proving trust at tribal council so in that respect there isn't going to be anything super tight among anyone there. The two remaining movie stars are likely still close, and there is some kind of potpourri connection too but it has cracks. Bees didn't like Zero's antics during the Tim vote.
I'm glad you were thinking the same thing! But it's always fun to employ the Jedi Mind Trick anyway. So, the one thing about this is that everyone will probably expect us to be aligned after this exile, but I say there is nothing wrong with leaning into that. If there isn't some major power shift or new connections made on Tyrian Purple I think that Lindsays and Maggie are going to be the people I'm primarily trying to reconnect with. They're both solid, and solidly together together which is valuable right now. I will definitely spread the good word of avocado to them at the very least.
I believe you could make a good connect with Bees by talking about working with me, but that's your call when you get over there. If you find that Bees is already against your main dudes or vice versa it might not be feasible which is fine too.
I'm wondering if there will be a returnee coming back to each of our tribes at the same time that we return, it seems like a good, dynamic place for it mechanically.

yeah i heard somethin similar from bard and ranger about their tribal too. basically cleric never showed up but he got second place. so when he did show up when tribal council was happenin he tried to push monk as a boot, so bard did a big brain move and voted ranger so that cleric could actually be voted out. on our end though it was unanimous and still would be if it was a normal tribal since beef jerky like. never talked at all.
honestly on our end there are like. one or two cracks but thats only cos of us wondering wtf would go down if we attended another tribal. i think gummy probably woulda been pushed there since nobody was sayin they felt really close to him but like. i think that could definitely change on the new tribe dependin on what happens from then on. then i know bard and ranger are pretty close, but i dont know the animals' dynamics since bonobo outright said to me he didnt know how much he could trust the hydra longterm
yeah no i think that its kinda obvious that were gonna come outta this close since weve got forty eight hours to bond with each other and nobody else but like. its just a loose duo connection from their perspective and we dont gotta tell em however close we end up bein from this point forward. i dont think any a the chocolates on either tribe are particularly close with one another but i think once i join maroon it could solidify?? idk but i appreciate you goin out there and sayin good things about me
thats what i was thinkin too cos they do have the funniest character choice. i would ideally like to establish cross tribe connections but like you said theres a possibility a that not bein a thing. either way ill try not to target him cos he is your ally after all
if i were on a tribe a five and there were two returnees comin in with immunity i would freak lol. theyre probably comin back at the merge i think
ALSO in terms a the challenge here i think that the merge is gonna feature an auction and that the money we'll get is for buyin items from there. personally i aint gonna try to win the challenge cos i dont think the pennies are gonna be worth the effort so ima let you have the extra penny by submittin nothing. i also wont tell anyone thats what happened (you gettin 'money') if you dont want

I think Finn was actually considering making a move against me the same way that Bard split the 1&2 votes to target Cleric. He made a comment at one point that he wished he could save both the Droids and Rey and I was like... bro, you know that only leaves me right? So even though by the end of TC I had both Finn and Droids saying to me that they were voting Rey, I still didn't join the Rey vote even though it might have created some Star Wars team unity heading into a swap. I figured if they were trying to double cross me, then my vote against Droids would block that and if they weren't double crossing me it still just ended in Rey leaving because of Droids' 3rd place vote. I appreciate it but you don't need to go out on a limb for Bees if it means jeopardizing your own position. Like, reuniting with him would be a luxury but it's not a necessity. But depending on what the dynamic is on that tribe he could be a valuable number for you. It is a very funny character choice. I'm very interested to see if this purple tribe targets one of the former Chocolates or turns on Zero. I think those are the two most likely outcomes. Hopefully Ranger comes through the vote so I can meet him. That's a very smart observation about currency equating to a future auction. I appreciate you clearing the road for me, and I'll do my best to score some extra coinage. If I manage it I'll ship you half (assuming that's allowed) as soon as we reunite, or if that's not possible we can at least try to strategize this hypothetical auction together for best results. I'm already thrilled about this partnership btw, what a great exile we got

oh yikes. i mean im upset that he had to get medevaced but like. that does not show a sense a game awareness whatsoever and im thankful he got out cos then we never woulda become exile bros or whatever the word for it is. but yeah it sounds like you woulda had a chaotic time if you ever went to tribal again and meanwhile im over here where ive got four easy menial votes in a row and im like. bruh. like i dont mind easy votes ever but i wish thered be at least some substance to it cos it seemed like a lotta motivation on our tribe had just been sucked out after the first couple days together
HONESTLY i think rangers a good enough conversationalist that he can pull through the first two votes without much trouble. hes likable even if hes got a shtick or some shit and he knows how to get a thread going. unless theyre hardcore pagonging or just doing the easiest possible route hes probably gonna at least make merge or to the point where the returnees come in whenever that is
yeah dude its no big deal. i dont really care about auctions or stuff like that cos i never win anything anyway (either that or i get crap) but youre chill so ima let you have it all. like i think workin together and poolin stuff would actually be the best option cos then we can bid for somethin bigger or get a guaranteed win on an idol together or somethin
actually same here. i didnt expect to click nearly as well with you as i did. like i was thrilled to go to exile cos ive never been to one a these before and didnt know what to expect from it but i think that this is turnin out a lot better then i coulda predicted. like hell i already feel tight with you cos of this shared experience and i think if we meet up later we can do some real damage
ANYWAY do you wanna like. talk about other shit too? just casual chatter like you would in a new tribe or some shit since were gonna be here for 46 more hours

He was just so indecisive and risk averse. Like, the dude did not want to be responsible for anything resembling a decision. But oh well he's gone now. we'll see if Grogu can manage to integrate on the new tribe as a replacement or not, he might just end up being the easiest out before you even get there. The Droids were super bummed at Finn's exit actually, I don't know that they were tight with anyone else before he left. I think you should be on the lookout as to whether they seem chummy with someone new, even though it's a hydra they're both pretty naive and could easily end up as someone's follower.
The one thing Ranger should be on the defense against in that case would be if the former Olives want to take a shot at a big threat. But in that respect he's lucky he swapped with Bonobo because from a cross tribal perspective Bonobo was looking like a strong player too.
Working together or even working with other allies we've managed to group with would be the best case scenario in an auction. This game is going to be so wacky, I can imagine a glut of items coming out of an auction.
For sure! Have you watched The Mandalorian? I'm catching up on season 2 right now (as in, I have the third episode on in the background as I type this message). I'm actually not a super huge Star Wars fan, beyond the main movie trilogies I've only seen Rogue One and Mandalorian. But it's a pretty dope show, and I love Pedro Pascal in like everything he's ever done.
The other hobby that has been sucking all my free time into a vortex lately has been Cyberpunk 2077. I got a new laptop on Black Friday and Cyberpunk is the first major computer game I've played in many years. It's so fun, I know it's got bugs and problems on other consoles but I think it's gotten way too much hate and the media is just dogpiling it now for the clicks. I'm really excited for the upcoming DLC.

yea that kinda sucks. ive had to deal with players like that in the past who dont really give you any shit to work with outta fear a it bein used against them like. 'yo hows your day been. good? oh good. i heard x was the vote. what names have you heard?' which tends to be really annoyin cos theyre obviously fishin for info without communicatin anything. but yeah ill be on the lookout for that an shit
well i dont think that hes like. mr popular or anything by any means. hes not like in control a chocolate or anything even if he was in a good position so it kinda depends a what his tribemates think of his posting style. bonobo is KIND of strong when hes around but he sends like one or two messages a day even when we just swapped so who knows.
uhhhhhhhh shit i know everyone and their mother have watched the mandalorian and shit but like. i was never really able to get into it cos i dont care THAT much for star wars, i just like the characters cos i know basic stuff about em. actually i feel like star wars has half a their movies suck which is disheartening
awww shit im not like. the biggest fan a open world games like cyberpunk, i more like indie stuff. one a my recent favorites and one ive spent a huge chunk a time on is spelunky 2. its a very strong game on its own but the multiplayer feature of it is absolutely god tier if you know what youre doing. id highly recommend it its only like 20 bucks and less if it goes on sale
ALSO what type a music do you like? one a my things is recommendin songs to people based on their tastes. i just like sharin good music in general tbh
