The Syndicate

Will combining assets and sharing rewards be allowed in the auction, ScottJeff?

MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR. Maybe I should have been getting all hardcore and only eating fish and rice in real life those donuts would taste so much sweeter! I ain't sleeping outside in this weather though... Ready to get our auction on!

Seriously.

I'm putting in for btsc with opt and lorab. Svs, I can also get btsc with you a different way today. That leaves elo and inh for tomorrow and I think I will have gotten around everyone.

Oh yeah to hell with that. We worked hard yesterday, dude... anyone else willing to take a crack at it this time? I need to nap soon

Whether or not you may share reward will be explicitly stated for each item.

Hell yeah! Love Survivor Auctions!

I'm also open for BTSC requests for tonight. I promise I won't screw up again. Say what you will about me, but I never make the same mistake twice. I take pride in my ability to innovate and constantly come up with novel methods of self-sabotage.

I'll try my hand at the shelter.

Thanks for the cure df!

I'm getting thirsty at this point, so there is every chance I'll spend my money at the auction on liquids.

Good luck everyone. I'll be watching you.

If I have to do anything to make this happen let me know.

I will join in on the shelter.

And can Survivor fans explain the auction for those of us unfamiliar? Thanks!

Sorsha and speedchuck, wanna be BTSC buddies tonight?

Opt and Sorsha, want to talk?

As for the auction, the way it works is (assuming it follows the actual shows concept to a T) Scotty will reveal an item, which will usually be food, some form of comfort, a trick, or an advantage, and we will auction our $500 on them. Sometimes items are revealed before we bet, and sometimes we're betting on an item that won't be revealed until somebody buys it.

I need to set an alarm for this k

I'd like to talk to chuck today. Anyone else want to talk?

Also, if I attempt to fish, can someone stoke the fire?

I didn't even know bulimia was a thing in this.

I ate three fish and my hunger didn't budge.

When I saw Sawyers role, it made me think of when you asked me if I had given you that fish since your hunger went down, not up:

Each night, he can bark orders at one target, making them expend 2 energy and either 2 hunger or 2 thirst during the night instead of 1 each.
Army Sergeant does not get as thirsty as most, and as such, starts with a higher thirst level.

Maybe he targeted you a few times? This might account for some of your drop if he targeted you every other night. This is the Double Targeting rule:

4. You may not target the same player with a Day or Night power two times in a row. This does not include voting for someone at tribal council.

Becasue the first BTSC chats we had at Atamai, he told me he took food from Sorsha. He used a word that seemed more aggressive to me than just "took" but I don't recall what the word was. When Sorsha said in thread that she had fed him, I thought that maybe I misinterpreted what he said out of generic paranoia. Now seeing his role, maybe not.

If this is true, and he was trying to slowly starve you to death, I would guess that if your hunger stops falling, that might be at least part of the answer.

Has anyone else had mysterious drops in food/water? Does anyone know if powers go through on a night you are voted out?

Now that I look back on my PMs, I think my thirst fluctuated more than it should have. Although it is hard to say with having been sick. If he WAS in league with LC, I could actually totally see LC wanting to target both of us in this way.

Both of us tend to be fighters, and making us waste away in the night might be an easier way to get rid of us than direct confrontation via tribal council. He and I were pushing against each other fairly strongly when the tribes split. Although as I said, I am not 100% sure I was targeted since there was the sickness, and I don't know how much water going to the well brings, etc. But even if he did not target me, I still think it is pretty clear he targeted you, Epi.

And I'll go walk in the weeds. Building a destroyed hut and healing Golden has left me weary.

Well, there's your problem right there. You were trying to build an entire hut!

Golden with the jokes.This was the second shelter I built, so at a certain point it starts to seem like an exercise in futility.


P.S. I'm aware that hut and Hutt are spelled differently. My nerd cred remains intact.

INH and Chuch confirmed

sorry, chuck*

Also, I need to try to get fish. Someone needs to stoke the fire so it doesn't go out.

Yo, Faraday, you want to fill each other's BTSC slots?

Didn't we decide we probably needed at least 3 to build a shelter? DF and/or golden. Can one or both of you help?

Sounds like a plan.

Moved to stoke the fire.

I think we need four on shelter. If someone feeds me, I'll lend a hand.

LoRab wrote:Didn't we decide we probably needed at least 3 to build a shelter? DF and/or golden. Can one or both of you help?

I cannot. My vote has been forced.

I think whoever is the construction worker could? Unless they already are. And someone does need to do the fire. Maybe one of the nappers could wait a day for the map in exchange for some auction promises?

Epignosis wrote:I think we need four on shelter. If someone feeds me, I'll lend a hand.

We aren't allowed to feed each other anymore.

I want to send in my PM; I offered, do you accept or not?

Perhaps some people can move there depending on the outcome of the auction, they may feel better off at that point.

Does this start in 5 minutes or 1 hour and 5 minutes?

Give or take 5 minutes
