Re: Spectator Thread
I have a feeling everyone is not telling the truth about their powers over in Mamana since Faraday says he lost part of his when Elo joined his tribe. I wonder if the strength people still have strength and the puzzle people still have puzzle powers, etc.

If I were playing this game I would be puzzling out what roles hadn't been discovered/dumped yet and looking for cracks and possibilities. If there is a healer, that would probably mean there's a sickener...etc

Re: Spectator Thread
I'm not sure what Epi keep rambling about with his talk of gaining BTSC with the other tribe. He has no such power, but given that he's sent in actions out of turn multiple times, I'm wondering whether or not he truly believes he does..

It might be based on the BTSC he earned this past day phase. Everyone was assigned BTSC with someone in their tribe during the day. Epignosis was the odd person out in his tribe, so he was given the option to pick the player he gained BTSC with.

My prediction for the rest of the game:
Lorab, Golden, Opt and Chuck are a strong group. I think they'll make it far. If Mamana was smart they'd take advantage of the fact that Quin burned his idol on me.
Also, I'll just add this:
I had a real good time playing this game, probably because it was LMS format with basically open BTSC, which might be the only game I'm down to play consistently at this point. I really didn't want to win as much as I wanted to give you guys a good show and have a good time. Figure I did that.

I wish I had seem the conversation before the lynch at Mamana. I'm not sure why Long Con got the boot. I figured it would probably be DH at Atami.
I'm also kinda sorry the tribes merged- I was enjoying the team competitions.

If I was playing this game, I most certainly would have bashed heads with you from the start. But as an observer, the entertainment value was high! Just the kind of thing they'd probably like on a real Survivor show. High ratings all around!

Re: Spectator Thread
So I made a decision to cut off sharing of fish in the merged tribe strictly for balancing purposes. I felt that roles that already gave away fish were undermined and the sense of urgency in acquiring food is simply not there.
I never had sharing of fish as an option, but SVS asked on Day 1 and in the midst of everything, I acquiesced. Then I had to make it a rule across the board since I gave her that option. But because I want there to be more percussive mafia elements in the game, I feel like it's needed for balance.
In case anyone asks.
This game is hard to balance with all the role powers- I mean shit, I threw away probably 20 other roles in crafting this setup- and as far as I can see, I think this is fair for some people.
What's most interesting to me is the roles that have a helpful function but not so much a maligned ability players will want to keep around. Makes sense. But should they keep them till the end? Might make for an easy case to hand them the win, since they were so helpful.
Lots to think about if I were playing. But I'm not. I'm Morgan Freeman. From Evan Almighty, not Shawshank

Re: Spectator Thread
Sorsha's role becomes a lot less helpful since there is no fish sharing but then again, I guess it's not helpful to have strength or puzzle solving or any of those things anymore from a team standpoint. It will be interesting to see what becomes the social currency (at the moment it seems to be "sharing"). Looks like a lot of strategizing will get done in bts.Scotty wrote:So I made a decision to cut off sharing of fish in the merged tribe strictly for balancing purposes.

If targeting me was really about the Negan stuff and not because I'm me, SVS and her crew should be targeting Sawyer next, whose avatar has been since Day 1 a picture of Negan's bat.

One thing I remember from Last Man Standing Mafia that was hosted here:
The game was reduced to four players: 3 women and 1 man. The women congregated to erase the lone man to keep the remaining players alive all female.
I'm curious to see if a similar thing happens here.

What I like about this game, is that people aren't being voted off for being blunt, or male, or some other personal trait. They're voted off because they're inactive, useless to the tribe, or out of self-preservation. It's far more strategic.
Plus, there are the BTSC rooms, where all sorts of crazy things are happening.

I still maintain, as a neutral observer at this point, the best move is to get Quin out ASAP. Like it or not, using his idol to get me out makes him a contender to go to the end. Somebody's gonna have to punch his ticket or hand him the win.

The funny part of that story. Bass_the_Clever was the last man alive in that situation, and Roxy (his mother) was one of the women.

I think Golden's got a good chance of winning, even if his time zone is a hindrance in the challenges.

Re: Spectator Thread
Reading through some of these BTSC chats I'm amazed that a few people aren't putting two and two together when it comes to role appropriation.
Listen, if you know anything about Survivor, you'll probably want to look at what the players did and why I would include them in the game. There's a lot to mirror. Granted, there's a few elements that make no sense for characters, but I'm still surprised that the threat of...say...the Crazy Hillbilly...is going unchecked.
Most of the talk is in the chats now, dear spectators, and I can assure you that everyone is trying to make backroom deals with each other. Because this is only a glimpse in a 1v1 chat, I don't know what everyone is thinking.
Except DH lol. He PMd me his ultimate strategy as he went along.
Should be an easy vote today. Key word "should".
Also to note: It's the merge, which means from here on out, survivors voted out will become part of the Jury. This will be a separate sub forum called "Ponderosa" to deliberate independently from outside sources. I'll let us observe them from the outside and we can talk about that here, but you won't be allowed to post there.
At this stage, it is up to the Jury to determine who they think deserves to win the game. So there's still participation past being voted out.

Oh thats great - I'm glad we get to see it (the jury thread). I hate that all the talk is taking place in btsc from the thread peeps.

If I were as active as I could be, I'd be relaying that here.
The pitfalls of looking into each BTSC is that, because people are pledging to each other similar final 5, 4, 3 deals, I don't know what they're really planning.
It would seem that Epi and Elo are going to be a threat down the line.
There is talk that Golden, Sorsha and Opt are looking to form a final 3, but Golden has also talked to Quin as if to bring him into the Mamana circle. Quin is throwing SVS to the curb in his convo with Golden.
INH forgot to send in his BTSC requests, so who knows what he's doing.
As of right now, because of the reward on Day 4, only Golden is left sick. When no one is sick, how useful will DF be to the tribe, really?
Could be that original Atamai is about to be picked off one by one unless something happens. If notsawyer goes home like people are suggesting, that is..

Re: Spectator Thread
Oh thanks Scotty thats some good juicy info. Can't believe Quin is going to throw over SVS after she stuck with him but I guess thats the way the game is played.
