Yep, and even then, after looking at that vote spread, it's slightly unorganized in BTSC. There were 5 different people getting votes last night- Quin voted Elo, but his vote was forced to Epi.

Once people that have been engaging in BTSC chats enter Ponderosa, they'll hear more from behind the scenes and how people have been scheming.

That's why I showboated so publicly. Gotta make this show interesting to watch as much as it is interesting to play.

Edit: As JC said, it's going to be very difficult for anyone to make a legit case on why they should win based on BTSC backroom dealings.

Had I made it all the way to the promised land, no one could refute my play because it was out in the open for anyone to see. People are going to have too hard a time selling themselves on backroom stuff unless we see a big shake up and a public display of power.

They must be thinking that their backroom play is influencing people who will be on the jury so there is no need for public play.

No, but I have a few good words I don't think many will have found. For fun we should try and come up with our own lists here. I'll start.

I wonder how many points that would be worth

If I understand his directions correctly, the letters have to adjoin in the proper sequence so for example p is not next to i even diagonally so you cant get "pioneer", s is not next to c so you cant get "scion" etc.

juliets wrote:So Scotty, anything exciting going on?

I've never seen such a dead thread.

Not a lot. Only have 2 votes in. The "Core" wants Epi out, but there hasn't been a public push yet.

Was notsawyer on your team when you got booted? I can't remember who was where.

juliets wrote: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.

A lot of this game is made up of hidden information and commitments.

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..

sawyer has had that as his avatar though since he came here. It's not new for this game.

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.

Scotty wrote:Them's the breaks man, I'm so sorry you were bamboozled like that. I was rooting for the king!

DharmaHelper wrote:SVS Knew he had the idol and let me go on thinking we were mending fences. I see how it is.

She told me via PM to tell you she feels real bad about it.

And yeah, she knew all along..she has had a tight bond with Quin since Day 1.
