That's a fair statement. But I'm sure you can see how one could read your posts as implying differently.

I can. I rewrote that part about four times because I didn't want to sound like I was making a blanket statement that you or Opt don't deserve the spot.

Don't do that.

My only options are you and quin and I don't know exactly what to do yet but they only reason I'd vote for you would be if I felt like I needed to force a tie to make it fair and leave things to fate. I know all three of you feel you have to do what's best for your game at this point but I think loyalty goes along way with the jury and I thank all three of you for yours. We all got here with each other's help
I've enjoyed working with you, as well. We've been together literally since day 1, when we mutually discovered what happens when you go get water. I don't think I can vote for you. It just doesn't feel right, and you've done nothing to me to break promises, so I don't want to break any promises I've made to you.

I think I need to vote Quin.

While Quin has played a good game, Quin has also never been on my side, and is the player left to whom I do not feel a sense of loyalty.

No hard feelings. I've voted for you for the same reason and if it's you who makes it to the end, good luck.

And Sorsha, I wanted to give you a plea as to why you shouldn't vote for me, so I'll do it here.

I've had your back since the beginning of the game, as early as when you first gave me fish. When names were being discussed in BTSC I threw in my two cents that you should have some sort of vote immunity early on, both for your role, and as a favour. I also flat out rejected voting for you back when SVS was eliminated. And I played an idol for you so that you, Opt and I could all make final three. I haven't broken my word to you.

I know you're weighing what's best for your chances of winning right now, and I get that. But it's as I said before, I think you'll earn more favour with the jury by going to the end with the people who you can have a sense of accomplishment in beating.

Off topic, but is there a way to mass delete PM's? I've got one and a half pages of just challenge PM's and I don't want to click every single one.

It still doesn't match the description. And I'm not sure why it is so important to you that it was Eloh (since you seem to have given up your initial response that it wasn't a person, just a game thing).

And I had asked the other players, I wanted to ask you, as well. I learn a lot from responses.

I gave up on it after Opt pointed towards the truth of the matter. If you're going to argue it's not the same thing because it's not a word-for-word repeat, that's your call.

Whether you agree or not, the most likely scenario is Eloh betrayed you and Golden. I don't know what the point of accusing me at this point was, anyway.

Yes, necessarily.

Yes it does. Your argument is that 'poisoning takes an extra point away from each stat each night' is different from 'saps everything twice as fast'. Which is wrong. They are the exact same.

LoRab wrote:I find it more likely that Golden did it by using a role (even though the result doesn't match up) than that Elo did it, in terms of personal character and values. Although I hold that I think it unlikely that either of them would do that to someone to whom they made promises. It's just not who either of them are.

Also, still not the same result.

So even though there's a role that does actually perfectly match what happened to both you and Golden, I'm still the most likely candidate?

Sorsha wrote:At this point don't we have to discard loyalty and vote out who we see as the biggest threat to our own win? That's how I see it.

That's not necessarily the case. If I were in your shoes, I'd want to bring the people I think deserved the spot the most. If I won that way, I feel like I'd have achieved something.

Want to tell me what those factors are?

LoRab wrote:Quin, based on several different factors, you seem the most likely candidate to have poisoned Golden and me. Did you do this? And if so, why? If not, then who do you think did it?

I didn't poison either of you. I think it was a game mechanic, because I don't see how one person could target both of you in one night, especially when there was already a role that could do that.

Sorsha: 450 seconds
OptOut: 480 seconds
LoRab: 590 seconds
Quin: 730 seconds

lmao so even if I hadn't messed up the puzzle, I'd barely have made 3rd place

Yeah, I was doomed.

Congrats, Sorsha!

I have my fingers crossed that you'll bring me with you, but if you want me to make a case for myself I'm glad to do it.

Good luck everyone. I'm pretty sure I'm out of this one but

Opt_Outside wrote:Quin- if lorab and sorsha are already talking then you and me for btsc?

Alright.

I just did my puzzle answers without reading that if I'm wrong I get docked time

You dig twice costing you 4 energy. It took 3 tries, but you finally fit, retrieved your bag and got back through. The whole ordeal took you 90 seconds
For the second hole, dig one increment and try at most three times.
You dig one increment, and fail to fit under all 3 times. Try slimming down a bit

Keep going until I fit.

Oh thank god. I was going to have to try to do it all in an hour

You won't be able to. I've been doing the balancing act thing for the past 5 hours.

Thank god, I was thinking about asking you the same thing.

So, then, what was the meaning of your smiley comment?

I just like smileys.

Opt_Outside wrote:Elo- I'm not sure if you caught what I said at the end of our chat or if you'd already gone to bed. I can't wait to play with you again. I had to vote for you tonight because you were the only one I hadn't made a long standing pact not to vote for this far down the line. But it's been a pleasure

Also WHO ATE DOODLE COME ON GUYS

I'm not gonna lie, I thought about it after I mentioned it last night, because it was all but certain someone would eat it. I didn't though. I even considered playing one of my spare idols on it.

I took you-Ii guess we'll see how that goes

I just got the PM, whoops. Thanks for that. I got a nice boost to my stats.

Hey Opt, who did you wind up taking with you on the reward? I got my hopes up but I haven't got a PM about it

woah rude

Poll speculation: Tomorrow will have elements that incorporate strength, nimbleness, puzzle solving etc elements, so you're just picking the type of thing you want the disadvantage in.

Quin wrote:oh my god
Dude, we've been on each other's tails every time.

I get to share this reward. I don't know exactly what it will entail but my instinct is to take Quin because, as I said above, we've been neck and neck for these past several challenges and I think he's earned it.

Thanks for thinking of me. I'm also just that little bit shy every time I face you. In the totem challenge I lost to you by 2 energy

oh my god

I'll move to fire. I hate to ask, but if anyone has some food to give away in exchange that would be super helpful. Getting nervous

You could always eat Doodle.

Sorsha wrote:Crazy stuff, thanks Quin! Can we try for bts today?

Yup. I'll send you in as well as Opt.

We'll see how it goes. For Eloh's sake somebody needs to be at the well, and for your sake you should be fishing.

Sorsha and LoRab, can you help with the fire?

Anyway, I'm on fire duty. We definitely need at least three to get it going, so I'd appreciate the help.

me coming into the thread today like

That vote hurt my soul. I am sorry Golden, and I'll explain myself properly when I can. What Opt said had a lot to do with it, though.

I've sent in my answers. I should've been paying more attention, because that was abysmal.

If we run out of energy can we opt out of the challenge automatically, or is it like the last one where we started to lose hunger/thirst?

I've got my burglary happening shortly so I'll be out of this for a bit.

Alternatively we could do one thing per day, because I recall 2 not being enough for the fire. Could we put 4 on the shelter, and 2 sick people can go fishing or get water or something?

Opt_Outside wrote:So quin, can we do btsc?

And anyone else interested?

Yeah. No problem.

So, we need to start the fire and rebuild the shelter today. Unless anyone is in dire need or food or rest can we all get on one of those two options today?

Actually, I think I know what happened.

I am confused as to how you managed to get BTSC last night, or that's what I'm assuming allowed this at least.

Quin wrote:I mean, looks like things are starting to happen, I suppose. Can you explain your decision, Golden?
I can, entirely. I'd like you to still take the btsc offer. But, in essence, it amounts to the fact that SVS's turn on LoRab combined with the DH vote made me feel I can't trust her.

I just hope that, if SVS was being genuine with me and not pulling one over on me, she understands later. It's been hurting inside to do it.

It's a bit of a punch in the face, but otherwise I can understand.

I'm still open to BTSC with you both.

I have 14 energy, so I'd be good for the challenge.

I mean, looks like things are starting to happen, I suppose. Can you explain your decision, Golden?
