Souls Suspended/Confessionals

Day 1
"limbo"

- So first hours or so in I'm kinda nervous. Huge casts are kinda draining because there's so many people to talk to. I'm assuming it's One World for now but I won't scramble and talk to everyone just yet. I'm kinda just chilling for now and letting people come to me. I'm trying to start a clean slate with everyone which is pretty easy because I've only played with two people here. Hesh and Sam. I always got along with Sam but the way the alliances worked out that season caused our own self-interests to not allow us to work together. Hesh is a tricky one. We were like oil and water and I could not hold a conversation with him because we were just so different. I have yet to talk to him but he seems to have changed according to his intro and it's been two years anyway so I'll be open with him. What WILL be confusing though is getting the two Aarons right. I'm not exactly sure which one is which just yet but hopefully they change their nicknames soon..

"limbo"

- First impression is not looking too good. I’m pretty unhappy with a lot of people I got stuck with, so hopefully I don’t end up on a tribe with too many of them. Half the reason I was glad to be playing this was that I’ve been away from the community for so long that I wasn’t going to have to worry about other games, but here I am stuck with people that I have a lot of previous beef or just potential friction with that I’m not too keen on. It’s not the worst thing in the world and I can overcome it or just live with it, but I would have preferred a clean slate and a fresh start, and having to play with people like Zach or Sam that have previously feuded with me in games can probably cause a bit of tension that I just really am too tired to deal with. Issac is someone that I don’t know how to feel about yet, because we have played together in amazing race as partners and he was not a very good partner to have, so my immediate thought would be to distance myself from Issac, but I know if anyone does their research on the wiki they’re going to see that Issac and I were amazing race partners and that’s going to put a target on our back as a pair despite the fact I don’t even want to work with him. That might be tricky to navigate but hopefully it doesn’t really have anything come up from it. I do feel good so far about- I think his name is Lex or Alex or something, but I actually have no idea, because he’s definitely the person that sticks out the most to me right now as being someone that I would want to stick with for a while just because we’re talking and it’s a good vibe and that’s basically the only thing I base allyship off. Similarly, I think I could probably work with Aaron just because he seems like a kid with a really good head on his shoulders and someone that’s a bit more levelheaded, and it’s just a lot easier to work with someone like that than someone that’s going to be trying to stir things up. So maybe it’s a bit more of a mixed bag and I’m overreacting thinking it’s all some negative thing but I guess time will tell and I’m going to have to wait and see as to how this whole thing is gonna go down because right now anything could happen. I am feeling like there’s going to be two people that get left off a tribe or something of the sort given that we haven’t started in tribes and there’s 22 of us. I think that would be an absolutely woeful way to start a returnee season, but so many ORGs tend to do that so who knows? Maybe I’m not even going to be around long enough to play with some of these people I’m dreading seeing.

"limbo"

- Wow, night one, and my brain is frying faster than a batch of McDonald's fries, tbh. Last season, I played with One World and it was hard to keep up with 23 people, so while two less is a welcome change, it really heightens my anxiety in a bad way having to try and cover my bases with everyone. I constantly worry that I've forgotten someone unintentionally and it'll come back to bite me, so, yeah, can't say I'm having a good time yet.

"limbo"

- After five years, I'm back on 703. I hosted six games in the span of a year so I felt like it was time to play again. I think I'll be in an ok position right now as I have a good relationship with most of the cast. My people I want as my main allies right now are Liam, Chloe, Tommy, and Lexi. I feel like they could be really loyal allies in this game and, well, I know them the most. It's day one but I think I could be in it for the long haul. We'll see

"limbo"

- Well, 1 night in, and I think we’re vibing well. But I swear to god, if Andrew makes any more jokes about Perry, he’s going in the volcano. Kidding. But I may or may not wind up anti-Andrew this season because of that. Let’s just see what happens.

"limbo"

- I mean, I’m just trying to escape from the hell that was Resurgence, and I’m not getting off to a great start. But time will tell.

"limbo"

- Day two has just started and honestly I’m feeling really good. I feel like I’m on pretty good terms with basically every single person I’ve spoken to thus far, even though there’s certain people I just don’t really get a good vibe from and probably aren’t too keen on working with in the future. A first impression isnt everything and it’s not like I dislike anyone though, so I have perfectly fine amounts of room to ebb and flow after this. Currently, I would say that Lex and older Aaron are my two favourite people, which is a nice surprise because they’re two people that I wouldn’t have really thought I would vibe with as much, but Lex is just a really sweet-seeming person and I love that, and Aaron has probably got the second best sense of humour in this cast - second to me - so he’s just good to talk to. Outside of that, Chloe, the other Aaron and Ian are really cool as well, and Liam, Lexi and I guess Issac too, all of whom I would gladly work with. That really only leaves me with a handful of people that I haven’t spoken to, and hopefully the five I haven’t spoken to come around and I can talk to them more today because I feel like something big is coming. I still can’t for the life of me pinpoint exactly what’s going to happen and I guess that’s the nature of things being twistful, but in the event that something goes south I do want to have a lot of people around me that want to work with me and so just having my bases covered with every single person feels like a really good idea. In the event that there’s some crazy 22 person tribal council or something and we don’t have tribes this whole round I feel like the person that will be targeted is just going to be someone that nobody talks to and so even just a few words here or there could save you in that situation. Alternatively, if it’s some sort of a schoolyard pick for tribes then, in the same sense, you want to have spoken to enough people that no matter who is picking, they’re going to pick you, especially in the event that someone might be getting left out of a tribe and just immediately getting dunked on like Rupert and Candice or Wanda and Jonathan. Either way, feeling good about everyone and feeling even better about myself, which is nice because I know I want to do well. Still just vibing for now, but it seems like I’m in a nice spot for once things actually start to pick up steam.

"limbo"

- Woo glad to be back on 703. Hopefully third time is the charm and can pull off a win. This cast wasn’t what I was expecting but I’ve also been MIA over the past 2 years so makes sense if others left the community or stopped playing as much too. I haven’t talked to or played with half the cast before which can be a good thing since they don’t know how I play or it can hinder if they want to vote me out for it.

Right now my main goal is just talk to everyone as much as I can. I’m not even surprised it’s one world considering all of my seasons on 703 have been one world so I’m probably cursed on that aspect. I think the whole limbo aspect is going to be doing a round or 2 as individuals and then get put into tribes at 20/21 people.

"limbo"

- Alright, so let’s do a breakdown of the game so far. I’m interested in what the twists are going to be and how that’ll shake up the game, but for now, I’m feeling like I’m in an okay position? I believe I’ve reached out to everyone or had people come to me first too. I’ve been working on a couple strong new connections, but also have some current/old relationships that I’ve got in the game too! Let’s start with Tommy, who I’ve hosted multiple seasons of his ORG, Destino with. Along with playing in multiple ORGs and working together then too. I trust him and hope we can make it to the end together. Chloe is someone I played with in 703, where I cut her and made that move to get her out. Since then we’ve played in multiple ORGs together and hosted together even too! She’s amazing and I hope we make the end together too. Next up we’ve got Liam, who I’ve hosted with too and adore him beyond words. I wanna utilize our relationship in this game and hope he’s down to ride with me the whole game. We’ve also got Elizabeth, who I played with in Louvre, but she cut me close to the end and was sneaky, so I need to watch out for her. Ian and I played together twice, but never really worked together, so I’m understanding more now why we didn’t, since we don’t hold conversations very easily together. Just not someone I click with immediately. Hesh is someone I’ve hosted, but he quit halfway through the game, so I know parts of his game and he’s chaotic...he says he wants to work with me, but I’m cautious since I know he’s dangerous af. Isaiah is someone I recently hosted and they made FTC, so I know how they play a bit. Hopefully we can stay on the same page and I can keep him close by and get to know more. Sam is someone I’ve connected with the most of the new people, so fingers crossed he’s genuine and we work well together!

As for now, that’s it. But more is soon to come!

"limbo"

- Hey everyone!! This season seems absolutely amazing so far and I'm so blown away by this cast!!!! I can already tell this season is gonna be so tough because everyone seems so nice and excited to be playing! As per usual at the start of a season, I like to do a cast assessment! I apologize cause this is gonna be so long, but it's not my fault because I didn't choose 22 person one world.

- Liz: Oh my gosh I am SO happy Liz is playing. I adore her so much. We've played together before and worked together previously. I'm hoping that we'll be able to work together again this season. The one thing that concerns me is that Liz said she doesn't know Discord too well, so I'm hoping that's a non-factor.

- Chloe: When I saw Chloe got revealed I kinda freaked out. We've played together before, but I thought she didn't like me for some reason or had something against me, but we had a really chill conversation last night and were on voice call with just us for a bit before other people joined. I really liked talking with her, so hopefully that continues!

- Andrew/Arlie: I just played Tumblr Survivor with Andrew/Arlie back in like July? We didn't work together, but I'm hoping we can put that behind us for this season! It's kinda nice to see him again :)

- Joe: I talked with Joe a bit more back at the start of summer! We played some Jackbox together and such, so I'm really glad that we get to play an org together! I like Joe a lot as a person so hopefully we can work together during this season!

- Tommy: Tommy was also in the Tumblr Survivor season I played this summer... and I voted him out first so ouch. I messaged him a bit but I'm not sure about our prospects of working together this season at this point.

- Isaiah: Isaiah just finished playing a Big Brother season (that Linus won), and I know he's in the Tunisia Final 3. He recognized me from cheering for Linus during the season, and he mentioned us representing Linus at the FTC- which is a big claim to make before we even have tribes. We didn't talk much, but with 22 people what do you really expect.

- AJ: AJ has played with Linus before, and we talked a bit last night. It didn't stand out as much as my convos with other people, but I know he was on the voice chat for a bit as well!

- Lex: I'm pretty excited to see Lex here! We hosted a season or 2 together, I think? And I know he's hosted me. I think we may have played together once? We talked a bit last night but not too much! But I still think we're on good terms?

- Ian: I played a Challenge game with Ian over the summer, and I really enjoyed talking to him throughout it! I didn't message him until today, but I think we had a good talk? I'm hoping we're on good terms already though!

- Aaron A.: I don't think I've talked to Aaron too much before this game? However I think I've talked to him the most since this org started. So that makes me feel pretty positive about him? I'd definitely be up for working with him!

- Sam: I also don't think I've ever played with Sam- however he played with Linus and apparently were closest allies before the merge. We had a really good talk yesterday with some personal aspects in it, so I feel really good about working with Sam!

- Brian: I've played with Brian before as well. We've talked some but nothing too substantial! I'm hoping we can change that in the future though!

- Aaron M: I've never played with this Aaron, and we didn't really get to talk until today and it wasn't very substantial. I don't have much to say about him currently.

- Vincent: Ooh Vincent is interesting. We played together in Tibet obviously, and I hope we're on good terms? We've talked a bit since cast reveal but not too much!

- Zachariah: I don't think I've ever played with him, and we talked a bit last night but not too much! I also don't think I have much to say about him right now.

- Shane: I recognize Shane because he just recently hosted Linus in a Survivor game, he seemed really excited for us to play together so I'm taking that as a positive sign!! I haven't talked with him too overly much since yesterday was such a rush, but here's hoping for today!

- Hesh: I've played with Hesh before, and we got kinda pitted against each other. I'm hoping that doesn't happen this season because he really does seem so nice. We talked a bit kinda catching up and discussing the season we played together before.

- Liam: I was shocked to see Liam here tbh. He's one of the few people I talk to from the community outside of playing together. That said I love Liam and I'm so excited to be playing with him!!!!!

- Felipe: Oh my gosh. I played like. multiple games with Felipe in a row. In Olympus I know we flipped on each other but before that we had a really positive relationship. I'm hoping we can get back to that and not have a Mount Olympus repeat!

- Isaac: I guess Isaac has played a game with Linus before, but I don't really know him. We talked a bit but not too much. Also his nickname is kinda weird and I don't really like it.

- Lora: Lora is the only person I haven't been able to message at all yet. I know she played with Linus, but I don't know much about her.

While I was typing all this the first challenge/twist got announced and I hate everything.

"limbo"

- I think the Limbo twist was something we were all kind of expecting but I guess a small glimmer of hope in me was hoping we would be put into tribes. I have talked to a few people who have reached out to me but there are quite a few people who I haven't had a single conversation with. Because of the announcement of this twist I'm gonna send a little check in to everyone and turn up the charm I guess. I'm definitely going to be gunning for immunity because I don't feel safe. It would be so easy to be like "Oh hey I haven't talked to Lora yet so I don't feel bad putting her name down."

In terms of what challenge I'm doing, I'm avoiding Mini Metro. It doesn't seem like my kind of game to grind and I'm sure we have people on our tribe who are awesome at it.

The jigsaw is enticing because I've been doing a lot of jigsaws lately, but the jigsaws I do have less pieces and have images and text to make it easier. I just know these hosts would give one of those blank jigsaws.

The other option is the math thing and while it does seem easy on the surface, I know my brain kind of explodes sometimes and I could easily flop. The saving grace is that I'm not sure how many people are going to do it. Some people say that it scares them and they're going to avoid it like the plague but they may be doing that to have less competition. I think I'm leaning towards the math right now but I'm worried my rusty math skills will catch up to me.

"limbo"

- wow this is too much for me

end cf

ok i'll actually say stuff.

so there's still a lot of people i hadn't spoken to yet (which you, person reading the cfs on the wiki, already know from how many people mentioned my name as someone they would be ok with voting)

Lex is the only one who has gotten strategic with me at all, albeit only with a simple pact to not target each other. No clue how many others he's done this with, but I figure it's better than nothing. Definitely don't see myself targeting him right off the bat.

I'd go into more depth with a cast assessment but there really isn't a ton of substance yet. sadly people aren't responding to my dms, i'm not sure why!!

uh..i am guessing i will be a possible target for elimination due to my lack of social prowess. so i've been dming people as much as i can but nothing much is happenign there for reasons i cant explain

but theres probably at least one person here worse than me in that regard so :shrug:

"limbo"

- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

"limbo"

- Alright SO....I think I'm a little calmer.

Just kidding! Day 2 tribals can suck my ass! I've opted to go for the math game because while I have very few braincells, I figured I'd just take my time with it. I don't expect to win immunity with this many people left in the game still, so this time I'll just have to rely on social skills! I really like everyone at least.

"limbo"

- To help cover my ass this tribal, I kinda extended an olive branch to Lexi and was like "Hey I'll watch out for you" and it's not like I expect anyone to ever respond badly to that but it's still nice to hear that she got a good vibe from me too. I sent a similar olive branch to Sam because I think we'd work well together this season and I feel like he would respond similarly. I want to make sure I'm well insulated which is pretty tough when there are so many angles to get picked off from. I have a hunch that Sam is going to hold a lot of power if not now then in the future and I want to be on his good side this time, because he'd make a good meat shield.

"limbo"

- I submitted my challenge and I don't think I did too great and I doubt I'll win immunity but hey, I guess we'll see.

In terms of the whole socializing thing, there are some people that I still haven't talked with and I'm going to be getting to that soon, but I mean, here's a thought. Why haven't they messaged me either? Yeah I get that we're supposed to reach out to each other, but I feel like it goes both ways. Yeah I seem kinda distant and anti-social but as far as I know, so do they. I hope that when we are put on tribes after this round that I am with people that I talked to because I'm sure it'll be awkward to do that whole "Hey, sorry I didn't talk with you during a crucial decision in the game, my bad!"

"limbo"

- oh god oh fuck why did my dumbass think coming back was a good idea

"limbo"

- Okay I did my first confessional a few hours ago, but wanted to update again tonight with thoughts on the challenge and this 22-person hell-tribal that's been announced. Also some updates!

- I got to talk to Lora finally! We didn't talk too much but she said she got good vibes from me, and she told me that she'd let me know if my name gets brought up. I kinda get the feeling she's been saying that to everyone, but what do I know? LOL

- On a similar note, Isaiah said he wanted to stick together because he doesn't know that many people in the game. I told him I'm also down to stick with him, though I could see him getting brought up just because he isn't as well connected.

- Felipe has said he isn't voting for me, and that he doesn't know others like he knows me. I'm kinda wary of trusting Felipe, but I'll go with it for at least this tribal.

- I messaged Arlie saying that maybe we can FINALLY work together this game and he kinda seemed to agree? I think we'll be good for this tribal at least

- As soon as everything was announced, Liam messaged me to keep him safe and I of course agreed and asked him to keep me safe <3 I love Liam so much.

So yeah, I messaged more people for a decent amount of time since the challenge was announced, but nothing was said concerning keeping each other safe or some such so I'm not including it here!

If I had to choose someone to leave at this point in time, I would probably choose Aaron M.? It shows him online a lot but I haven't had much time to message him, and I also don't know him from outside of the game so I don't really have any connection to him. Anywho that's my update for the night! <3 I'm sure I'll write more tomorrow after results!

"limbo"

- Okay, so after another day passes, I’ve made stronger connections with Hesh, Sam, Issac, and Lora. Those 4 I’m starting to build a really good relationship with and want to work with long term, but also want to protect and work with Tommy, Chloe, Liam, and even Elizabeth & Isaiah for now. There’s a lot brewing and I’m slowly starting to feel a little more safe than I did at the start of the game.

Hesh and I have done the most game talk, where we’ve discussed names on who we like and trust so far, so we’ve got a few people in mind when it comes to building new alliances after results if needed. Besides that, I’m already doing my strategy of befriending everyone, keeping up basic conversations, and being friendly as hell. These people love that and hopefully they see me as someone who can carry a conversation and that they can rely on me to provide feedback on their messages. I’ve also begun gathering info, mostly from Hesh, to determine where he stands with a lot of people. He threw out like 8 names on who he likes, along with info on who is connected from past ORGs and who he’s worked with before. I’ve simply noted this down and have information about a handful of players, which could save my ass in the long run. I didn’t have to throw out a single name, rather I just agreed with the names he said and that keeps my info and pre-season connections under wraps.

I don’t feel 100% solid about my performance in the IC Trails, but I’m happy there was a jigsaw puzzle regardless bc I love them so much! If I win, I’ll be able to gather more information than anyone else (unless the other 2 immunity winners have the same idea), but I can easily ask who they’d like me to vote and not have to throw a single name out there. If I don’t win immunity, I’ll let someone give me a name, spread it if I like the name, and try and get everyone I’m close with to spread it too. I just put the blame on others and let it fall onto them if word gets out they’re spreading it. Otherwise I believe I’ll be in a solid position after this round if I survive.

"limbo"

"limbo"

- day 1 and day 2 have been pretty laid back, obviously not a whole lot going on until after immunity happens. So far im thinking of voting for people who havent talked to me at this point. Which narrows it down to Lora, Ian, Andrew, and Sam. obviously thats not an indication as to who could get voted out as im a lone man with no power in a tribe of 22. Thats just where im leaning personally with my vote. Who knows it can and probably will change. If someone can convince me of doing something better then i'll probably go with that. My vote isn't really mine, it belongs to whoever wants it.

"limbo"

- So its Day 1 and I am actually really happy with the cast. The one world twist is overwhelming and I hope its over soon. I have alot of past relationships in this game. The strongest is Lex by far. I trust him. We were on a tribe that dwindled down to three and I had his back. Next is Shane he hosted me and I know hes a strong player so i want to align with him. I have a past relationship with Tommy as well. However, I consider him to be a weak player, so for now trust is good, but I don't want to be aligned with him too long. Pris (Lora) and I played in my 703 season and were not on the same side, however part of a second chance is working with the person you didn't the first time, plus i like her so shes high up there for me. Joey has hosted me before way back in the day, we arent quite clicking, but hes an option. Lexi and I never were aligned in our game, I am wary of her, but I think we can work together for now. Felipe and I were on totally opposite ends in our game, I want to keep him close. Aaron and I have spoken in the past, but hes dry toast, an early boot in my opinion. Now for the new people, Drachus by far my number 1 out of people I havent spoken to before, hes boys with brad, so hes good with me, and hes chill as fuck. Saddenedboi, turbofrog, and zachariahh also seem very chill and I've talked with the first two quite a bit, especially turbo, I think we can do somethings. I liek AJ as well. A big key for me this game is aligning with Chloe. I think she has a fantastic social game and I don't think she thought very highly of me coming in, so its importnat that I make that relationship strong with her. She will be a big key in me getting far. Vinnie I was excited to play with, but hes turned out to be very bland. I expect an early boot. Elizabeth and arlie are very vanilla. I like Lanni and Liam but we havent talked as much. Ian is super dry. I have alot of options, keeping that social game strong!!

"limbo"

- Playing an org while working full time is so much different than playing orgs while in school. I've been trying to talk with everyone whenever possible yet a few times I've found myself typing replies up but forgetting to hit send and noticing hours later whoops. I definitely need to be more careful with that because Zach finally messaged me again today which helped me realize I typed up a reply yesterday to him but never hit send.

I had a feeling since we weren't in tribes yet that it would be an anarchy round or two and that would be interesting if the 3 winners of the challenge pick their own tribes after this. I also appreciate the choice this challenge has because after MO I would not have enjoyed playing Mini Metro again since that's the game I lost to Brian during the round I got voted out so I know there was no chance at beating him in that again (also I tried playing it but it's laggy on my computer and I got impatient and quit after like 5 mins LOL). Right now I'm leaning towards the puzzle because I'm fairly decent at them and so far in the main chat people have talked about playing the flash game or the math puzzles so here's to hoping I'm the only one who does the puzzle and wins by default (jk I wish LOL)

"limbo"

- I'm so fucking nervous to see these results and get into this first TC vote. If I'm immune, I won't be nervous. However, if I lose this immunity, I'll be feeling the stress for the next 24 hours...y'all hosts are evil...

"limbo"

- I thought it would be fun if I wrote out my first impressions of everyone so that when the season is over we can all look back at how dumb I was. So ya first impressions!!

Chloe - dumb bitch, she should get first boot

Andrew - Ugh I just love him so much, he just got yeeted from tumblr survivor too early and I was robbed of a chance of playing with him because separate tribes but I am so so thakful that he is here in this game because I would very much like to have a redemption of the shit show that was tumblr survivor 98

Joe - The last time we played together was like 2 years ago if I'm correct and I fully hope he doesn't hold that game against me because I was highkey a crackhead and he was almost constantly a target. But aside from that I like him, will cut him though if I think he's not good enough for my game

Tommy - An absolute sweetheart, I love him so much, we've played about a million games together and it really is hit or miss whether we work together. Although the last time we played a survivor together he did throw away like his own entire game and get himself voted out so I could live one more round which is honestly super cute

Isaiah - I don't exactly know him, but he doesn't seem like the most boring person either, I think he could be good to keep around for a while as a possible vote

AJ - Literally have not spoken to him before tonight but I have immediately fallen in love, he seems so amazing, but he will definitely be someone I am watching out for. I feel like he could very much become a snake and be very convincing with his words

Elizabeth - My queen, I love her, but I'm pretty sure I fucked her over in a game once upon a time, that might fuck me up a little bit. Truly don't know how far I will be able to trust her but I'm very willing to give it a shot. I think she will become a major social threat though

Lex - I don't know him from before the game, but something is telling me he's about to become a comp threat. I feel like he's going to try to hide it for a bit and play it down but then go on this major immunity run

Ian - An actual sweetheart, someone I've played with yet again, I feel like he could be a super important connection for me to nail down and keep solid early on as he will become much more important in the later stage of the game

Aaron A - HOW DOES HE KEEP ENDING UP IN EVERY OTHER GAME I'M IN I JUST DONT GET IT. We NEVER are on the same page, and I don't try to like actively target him and I don't think he actively targets me but somehow we end up voting each other out at some point, usually me voting him out tbf but still !!

Sam - Highkey an icon, I love, probably going to be some massive strategic mastermind but is super good at hiding it and being under the radar. Reminds me of someone I know that does well in games but a bitter jury and one too many immunity wins makes him unable to win an FTC

Lexi - I once told my ex boyfriend to not trust her in a game and she's already spoken to me about it and I don't remember why I said to not trust her oops. She's nice but also she's TOO nice, so she's gotta go ugh. I really hope she doesn't hold what I said against me, I told her it was mostly my ex trolling bc that's his thing but yikes am I scared of her

Brian - yet again love him with my whole heart, I'm super excited to play with him and see what happens but I know he will cut me if the time comes, so I guess as long as I wanna work with him I gotta let him think he's in control of me and what I do

Aaron M - I don't have a lot to say yet, but I adore his vibe and definitely see him as someone I want to work with super closely. He just seems like a mood and I think we're going to get on pretty well

Vincent - I think he hates me, that's it. That's the first impression. Idk he just always seems so snakey and he definitely holds his cards close to his chest. Which I guess is important but I never truly understand his position in a game and sometimes he can be hard to talk to. Maybe this time it'll be different and work out better

Zach - My gut is telling me he's a fun crackhead, so I'm super excited to see if that ends up being true or not. I really want a proper balls to the walls person and this may be it.

Shane - The actual love of my life, if there is one person in this game that I would sell my soul for, it would be Shane. We've had a shaky moment or two in past games and then somehow ended up having a showmance in another and I completely fell for his charm. I know he's a very good all rounded player and he's so likeable you can't help but want to work with him and just let him get by being him. Which for now is nice, if Shane doesn't want me to be voted out, then I don't think I will be.

Hesh - Crackhead vibes that I love, he's so funny I'm so here for it. But I also believe he's probably a very well rounded player but likable in a different way to Shane where I think he's going to be seen as a threat possibly midway through the game

Liam - If I wasn't Shane's biggest simp then I would be Liam's biggest simp. Maybe I'm both their biggest simps. Liam I adore with my whole heart, he is one of the loveliest people I've met and I am so lucky to be graced with talking to him on a daily basis. Highkey am hoping to work with him nd kill everyone else with our cursed images.

Felipe - Seems nice but idk why I get lowkey gamebot vibes, not like massively. We've had a nice lil chit chat so far. Something is just telling me that he will create some massive mastermind plan and it's going to work for him and then he'll get cut at like 7th for being a threat

Isaac - If there was ever someone in an org that knew how to make a good first impression it would be him, he has had me laughing right from the start. I feel like we're on very similar wavelengths and he's just so enjoyable to talk to. I truly hope it continues.

Lora - Possibly the only person that I haven't spoken to yet, and I don't think has said anything in one world chat. So this will be updated when that happens

And that concludes this segment of Chloe writes dumb shit

"limbo"

- Jesus fuck, why did I do this?

I kid, of course. I applied, after all. Yes, it's me, "that" Isaac, the supremely annoying kid who somehow climbed the admin ranks of the main ORG to the chagrin of everyone else. Funnily enough, however, I actually did fairly well in 703 - I narrowly missed out on the merge, mainly because Austin was a paranoid mess. How long ago was this?

Five years.

I'm 20 now, and looking at this cast it's disturbing that I likely might be one of the older ones here. I'm also really surprised at how many of these people I recognize. AJ and Zucc I both know well from the hellish rankdown that we did with Josephine and Toby, among others. I also know Andrew quite well from a political chat we partake in, and I vaguely remember Aaron M, Ian, Joe, Lexi and Liam from the community. Everyone else is a stranger, which I'm actually pretty happy about.

Right out of the gate, I get a message from Brian. He's a pretty cool dude, although his previous rep as a challenge beast is a little scary. Can we really be picky in this scenario, though? I hit it off well with most of the others, specifically Clohie, Sean, Sam, Isaiah and a bunch of other fellas.

Am I on a tribe with any of them? No, because I'm not on a fucking tribe at all! Love a bit of cheeky Limbo, right? Wrong. Fuck you guys.

And such brings the end of our first day. As for now, my strategy is solely to not piss people off.

"limbo"

- Limbo comes, and Limbo will go. But they're taking one of us with it. We got three challenges, and woe behold, Mini Metro doesn't load on my computer. Sucks for me, right?

Alas, I go to the puzzle and total around 16 minutes. I think that's a good score? Oh wait, never mind - AJ got like six minutes. Figures.

Day 2
"limbo"

- I won immunity to the surprise of literally nobody. I knew all round that I was going to win even though I actually did pretty poorly by my standards on the puzzle. You just don’t mess with greatness and that is what I am in the world of jigsawplanet Survivor puzzles. A little disappointed andrew didn’t want me to give him immunity anymore because if he hadn’t have told me not to worry I legitimately was going to and that would’ve been fucking funny. Now I just have to pray that Lex and I don’t get automatically separated by the swap tomorrow for having immunity and furthermore when Brian inevitably survives this vote because I can’t convince twenty people to vote for someone because they told me to eat a meatball, I really hope he doesn’t end up on my tribe. Maybe I do though and him being on my tribe would be a dream scenario so I could bolt him. Time will tell, but right now he’s got my vote and the only other name seems to be Felipe whom I literally have no opinions of.

"limbo"

- Whom the FUCK does this Brian character think he is? Idk if it’s Posie rubbing off on me but I feel like it’s on sight for 703 Brian’s. I want him gone, fucken Toy Story Sid lookin headass manga and shit. He told me to eat a meatball and I’m using my Italian card to be offended and there’s nothing he can do to stop me. Will throw fisticuffs if I have to but at this point I’m safe idgaf about anything else I’m just voting for him and people can deal with it.

"limbo"

- I would like Lex to stop responding with one word responses please. Thank you

"limbo"

- Well, it’s Day 2, and I’ve spent the weekend basically being a circus performer, trying to juggle a shit ton of conversations. I literally don’t know who to vote, and I don’t know who anyone else might be thinking. Shit, 2 days in, and we’re already making hard decisions. This season’s definitely gonna be an uphill battle.

"limbo"

- I didn't win immunity, so, wah wah. Woulda been nice but luckily I didn't fully expect to win anyway. I think I've talked to pretty much everyone sans, Aaron M. I've had pretty good conversations and I think I'm pretty good with Sam, Hesh, and Lexi but the others are kinda mysteries to me still. I've thrown Aaron M's name out in the sense that I've told Joe and now Brian that I haven't really talked to him and he hasn't talked to me either. I know it is a two way street but better him than I. No one's given me any names yet but I imagine that all changes really close to the voting deadline.

"limbo"

- So it's day 2 and I started off quite well I think. I've spoken to everyone at least once, so I should hopefully have that going for me. I've got an alliance with Tommy and Shane which is cute, gonna see how long that lasts oof.

It's super nerve wracking going into a season that's one world with this many people, I really hope I can keep my stamina going with my social game because I think it's going to be my most important asset right now since I have no idea what is going to be thrown our way after this tribal.

It really sucks having to vote someone out so quickly and with this many people, everyone seems to be a bit on edge about throwing out a name, possibly because it means they're then going to become a target. I will absolutely not be the first person to throw a name, I don't have the balls for that. I very much just want to keep up with talking to everyone and see how far that gets me. I think people are warming up to me which is nice. I hope no one finds me annoying yet because I very much have one of those personalities that can be grating.

The thoughts are that the 3 people who won immunity are going to be tribe captains in a schoolyard pick after tribal. This also terrifies me because either I get picked early because of social game and then get called a social threat early on, or I get left until the end and everyone realises no one wants me and then I just become an easy boot because I'm not exactly the most useful in challenges.

I guess right now I need to just focus on getting through this tribal first. I'm preparing for a last minute scramble 2 hours before the vote so I'm definitely keeping that part of my day free.

"limbo"

- I've decided to do trust rankings each day, where I evaluate how I currently feel about each player and our connections. As for today, I've seen a lot of fluid movement between certain players. Some giving me better reads today than yesterday and some are declining.

My top few choices are currently Tommy, Chloe, Liam, Hesh, Isaac, Sam, and Brian. The bottom players would be Felipe, both Aaron's, Ian, Lexi, and AJ. There's no real connection and very little to no game talk between those handful of players. I can let them be cut or target them and not care at all about their departure currently. Maybe it'll change, but they haven't put in the effort that I've been trying to, so I'll let them take that bullet for me if needed.

I've got myself set up in 2 alliances as well, one with Chloe/Tommy and the other with Isaac/Brian. Both of these alliances are genuine and feel good. I'm working solo with Liam and Hesh currently, but hoping that changes soon. Sam is also someone I can see working with me long term, but I need to find a good alliance to build with him. Maybe between Hesh, Sam, and I, connecting us together and keeping my other alliance members out of the way and keeping me under the radar...but I don't wanna go too crazy right now, so I'll wait patiently.

I just know I've had over half the cast tell me they wanna work with me and trust me, so I agree, return the statement, and play nice. The others who haven't said much to me can go! I really need to work on my relationship with Lex, Lora, and Andrew. I feel like Lex has said good things about me to others and told me he likes me, but I don't have the best read on him yet. Lora and I have so many similar things in common and I wanna build our relationship off of that. As for Andrew, he's someone I haven't had the most game talk with, but he's giving me good vibes and I wanna build a connection there. As well, I have evidence that Lex threw out Andrew's name this round, so if needed I can try and use that information later in the game and keep Andrew safe, all while trying to save my ass. It's not the biggest info, but it's something.

I seriously have enjoyed a majority of these people and I'm so excited to play with them all, but I want to play a more intense game than ever before. I want to be cut throat and make bigger moves and be more abrasive with the moves I make and not apologize for them. The last ORG I played, I won, which was Twisted S13. I demolished that season and controlled every single vote I attended. People didn't realize I was running the show until F7, where I went on an immunity run to the end, called every shot, took out huge threats, and played very behind the scenes/sneaky. I want to do that again, but make it more flashy. I wanna win in a unanimous vote this time, fighting for it to the very end. I'm ready. I will try my damn best to be the winner this season.

"limbo"

- Hey there everyone! Super quick confessional before bed! As of 4am, there have been no names brought up for tribal council so like, that's awesome. No one's been particularly inactive and no one wants to be the first to throw out a name. My choice for a vote is still Aaron M. personally, but like- I don't want to be the one to bring it up in case it backfires LOL. I'm pretty happy with AJ, Lex, and Vincent winning immunity. They all are people I could see myself working with in the future so no complaints about that on my end! I'll probably have another confessional tomorrow when I actually know what's happening LOL

"limbo"

- So it's officially day two and AJ Vincent and lex all won immunity. Which is fine I seem to be cool with AJ and lex don't really know a whole lot about Vincent but whatever. So far a lot of people are pretty quiet but Liam seems to be saying Felipe That's the only name I've heard so far he says he's heard it from other people but I highly doubt it it definitely seems like Liam is pushing for Felipe. He's trying to do it subtly but I don't think he's being a subtle as he thinks he is. honestly I'd like to keep Felipe because he's got a pretty good relationship with my wife and we have a connection there so personally I wouldn't really want to vote out anyone I have a connection with so preferably I'd like for him to stay. However if I can't hear another name before it's time to vote Felipe is going to have to go because I can't put my name out there to save him If I try and fail it could be me going home. so hopefully I hear another name before the vote. If not it looks like it's going to be an easy vote and it'll be Felipe.

"limbo"

- How is it that we’re less than 9 hours from the deadline, and basically nobody knows who to vote? It’s madness. If I don’t give Resurgence credit for anything else, at least we were decisive back then. It’s like a massive high noon standoff right now.

"limbo"

- As we are soon going to find who's the first person voted out of this game, I thought it would appropriate to do a cast rundown since I've met everyone.

Aaron A. : Super good guy, I've know him for a long time. If he's active, he could definitely be a good ally, I think he's trustworthy.

Aaron M.: Seems like a good guy. I don't know much about him. Will have to keep a eye out.

AJ: So far, so good. We've bonded well. We're already allied and both of us are immuned!

Andrew: Have not spoken to him much. I really can't make any judgement at this point.

Brian: Cool dude, I see him as go-getter. From his wiki page, he's quite the challenge beast which I don't really like. I don't like people who are too dominant in challenges, because I like to be able to win them once in a while. So far, I got a win over him so we'll see.

Chloe: I'm having a hard time pinning her down. I think she will prove herself to be quite the player.

Elizabeth: LOVE HER! She is fantastic. Hopefully a good ally long-term.

Felipe: Nice guy, a bit quiet. I already know him. I don't know how our relationship will work, but he's a sensible guy and I certainly think we can work together if need be.

Hesh: My ride or die. He's awesome, he's wonderful. He's an active player, but he does have his shortcomings. He can get overconfidant and he likes to lead which can make him a big target. He 100% has the skills to stick around and I do hope he does.

Ian: Quiet guy, he's alright. I think he might be too quiet which could make him an early boot. We will see.

Isaac: Awesome, super cool. Allied with him. I think he'll be around for the long haul.

Isaiah: Seems really nice. Big question mark in terms of how good he is though. He's pretty new to the community, so I'll have to keep an eye on him.

Joe: Pretty cool. Haven't talked that much with him. Not part of my plans as of right now.

Lexi: Obviously she's incredibly nice and as a player I hold her in very high esteem. I think we most definitely can and probably will work together moving forward. She's pretty loyal. I think she's a good bet long term.

Liam: I don't know how good he is as a player, but he's chill guy. He's not part of any plan of mine so far.

Lora: She seems to have done very well on her season, so I think she knows what she's doing. So far, I like her vibe. I think we can connect well. That's it for now.

Sam: In my biased opinion, he's the most dangerous player here. He has always impressed me very much with his game. He has a very good, well-rounded game and very importantly: I believe he has a killer instinct. He will most definitely be a key player at some point. So far, we are on the same side.

Shane: More of a question mark, but from what I've seen from him, he's very dangerous as well. I do not doubt that he is here to win and that he has the skills to do so. So far, we are on very good terms.

Tommy: Great guy. We're already allied. I don't know if he will be invested enough to be a key player however. He is trustworthy though and I think will be a good ally for me.

Vincent: I don't he's a huge fan of mine. We get along well, but we just have a lot problems working together, because neither of us want to compromise. I have to keep an eye on him, because I'm certain he would love to get me out.

Zach: Awesome guy. We didn't manage to really bond in Annihilation, but now we got a good thing going. I think he's a good player and will be a very useful ally long term.

Overall, this is a strong cast worthy of an all returnee season. It's difficult to make predictions since the first tribal could go in so many ways and we have yet to have tribes formed. This is gonna be a fun ride.

"limbo"

- I've pushed for Felipe's name quite a bit, which is something I DIDN'T want to do, so I'm gonna step back and let others do the rest. I don't wanna appear as though I'm the one gunning for him, but I'm just nervous for this first vote and not a single person throwing names out there. I'm just playing it up that I don't know where it originated, but that I've heard it multiple times now, even though idk where it actually originated lol

I hope this doesn't put a target on my back for this round. However, I don't see even half of this cast voting for me this early, so I don't feel too much in danger.

Something that I'm more concerned about is how apparently Felipe wants to form some type of alliance with me, Liam, Elizabeth, Joe, Andrew, and Aaron M...but like I've had the least interaction with Felipe of anyone currently, so it's tough to say yes, but I def wouldn't say no if I was asked! Liam told me he talked with Felipe about it and that Felipe is throwing out Aaron A's name now, so it could be either of them going. Which works in my favor, since I ranked them both 3rd to last and last on my Trust Rankings! I hope it's just between them and I make it out alive and untouched.

"limbo"

- Commentary on the social politics and strategy of Survivor


 * 1) 1 Asking to form an alliance

I think it's very interesting what happens when you ask someone to be in an alliance because whoever you ask can't say no. Unless they're not very smart. Of course, their yes is thus meaningless, but when you're the one offering the alliance it does have a weight because it's understood you actually intend on working with that individual. It can open many doors and future possibilities since the person you asked, no matter how little they care, now count you as a number. They see you as someone they can use and thus, while it's possible they may not try to protect you when push comes to shove, they're much less likely to actively campaign against you and throw your name out. In fact, they're likely to get you in on their plan because they see you as an easy number. All of that because you made the first move of saying "hey, let's team up".

"limbo"

- Ugh honestly, this is too fucking much for me. I don't know if I still have it in me, I AIN'T QUITTING THO. But it's hard, like it's hard af because throwing out a name could either go good or backfire and I decided to take the initiative and throw out a name. I hope it works out for me and we'll, I stay but idk I just feel guilty cause Aaron A is such a good kid and so nice but I didn't really connect with him like I wanted to and I feel like he is an easy vote but it's hard. I feel awful like I remember back in MO I was thinking of playing like a bad bitch and I remember how ruthlessly I cut Matt first knowing that he didn't do well the first time. So now I am sitting here like, what the hell do I do now?

I definitely have grown a lot and along with that I've like become more emotional so voting out people is gonna be hard specially later on when I have to vote out close allies but I have to remember to myself that there is only one winner and I have to make sure that is me and to look for my own benefit.

"limbo"

- wow i won how did that happen?

i was hoping for an explosive tribal bc it's not like i'm getting voted out, but it turns out that all i had to do was wait and the thing i wanted to happen ended up happening anyway.

felipe seems to be the name for this vote, and if he's barely speaking to anyone then i guess i'm ok with that. i'd prefer to see sam go, but i do recognize that i'm tunneling in a bit on him so i'm not actively pursuing it. felipe has sent me two messages so it's not like him staying benefits me in any conceivable way.

after this we'll likely see tribes, and aj seems to think that the immunity winners are picking them. i don't really want to do that, but if i have to then i will make the best choices! no i won't :( but it does sound like a fun challenge though so i am lowkey looking forward to that

"limbo"

- So lex and I are as strong as ever. And he won immunity so I think he’ll be a captain of a tribe. We’ve gone over who we’d like on our tribe Sam, turbo, Shane, Lora, Zach, and a few others as we find them fitting to us and loyal and mesh with. Then we’d take a few sacrifices for the tribe like an Aaron Ian or Lexi people who will help us, but that we could easily vote out, he even threw Tommy on there. Because he’s loyal. Seems like Felipe is going, which I’m not mad about, you voted me out of bar dawg now you first out. Hesh social game strong!

"limbo"

- So far this tribal seems to be straight forward with a lot of people hearing Felipes name so hopefully he goes pretty unanimously. As much as I would rather vote someone i haven’t talked to as much (Priscilla, Aaron M or Andrew) I feel like it’s too late to try and do anything considering I worked all day and I think someone threw out Felipes name and everyone just took it and ran since a 22 person anarchy round is scary enough. I’m hoping we’re put into tribes after this because idk if my anxiety can handle another anarchy round. Going forward I’d really like to work with Sam, Shane, Vince and Lex forsure.

"limbo"

- I've already run out of witty things to say which kinda sucks BUT

I think I'm gonna be okay this tribal? It seems like it's going to be Aaron or Felipe at this point, and there's pros of both of them leaving, but there's also cons. I just wanna get onto a tribe where I'll feel much safer once I know who I'm with.

"limbo"

- So I just woke up, still groggy out of my damn mind and I guess I missed a lot. Somehow the target is Felipe, at least according to Lex. I mean it's not me or any of my allies so I'll just go with it for now. As much as I wanted to control the vote, I'd rather not be a big name right now. I messaged all the people I'm good with and let them know that Lex told me Felipe. I guess we'll see how it goes...

"limbo"

- I feel awful about voting Felipe. I like him as a person but I’m only one person and I can’t switch the votes to Aaron A. I think I know who I want to work with going forward, those people being Liam, Chloe, Isaac, Lora, and oddly enough Joe. Joe and I hated each other for years but neither of us are gonna let our former hatred of us blind us. I just hope I get put into a good tribe, that’s my biggest worry right now.

"limbo"

- ?idolplease

"limbo"

- God the first vote absolutely sucked. Felipe was a chill dude but once his name was out everyone just jumped on it. It was too risky to stick my neck out for him even if though I did want to work with him. I kind of wish I threw a vote but I couldn't. So now we're down to 21. Hopefully tribes start forming because Limbo sucks

"limbo"

- So it's day 2 and I started off quite well I think. I've spoken to everyone at least once, so I should hopefully have that going for me. I've got an alliance with Tommy and Shane which is cute, gonna see how long that lasts oof.

It's super nerve wracking going into a season that's one world with this many people, I really hope I can keep my stamina going with my social game because I think it's going to be my most important asset right now since I have no idea what is going to be thrown our way after this tribal.

It really sucks having to vote someone out so quickly and with this many people, everyone seems to be a bit on edge about throwing out a name, possibly because it means they're then going to become a target. I will absolutely not be the first person to throw a name, I don't have the balls for that. I very much just want to keep up with talking to everyone and see how far that gets me. I think people are warming up to me which is nice. I hope no one finds me annoying yet because I very much have one of those personalities that can be grating.

The thoughts are that the 3 people who won immunity are going to be tribe captains in a schoolyard pick after tribal. This also terrifies me because either I get picked early because of social game and then get called a social threat early on, or I get left until the end and everyone realises no one wants me and then I just become an easy boot because I'm not exactly the most useful in challenges.

I guess right now I need to just focus on getting through this tribal first. I'm preparing for a last minute scramble 2 hours before the vote so I'm definitely keeping that part of my day free.

"limbo"

- Sure enough, AJ got immunity for the puzzle. Lex got immunity for Metro, and Vince got immunity for the maths. This is pretty satisfying, if I'm honest - I've hit it off with Lex and Vince fairly well, and AJ and I are tight. Hoping they aren't in charge of picking tribes though.

As of now, I've got fairly good conversations cooking with the majority of this cast. Therein lies three exceptions - Elizabeth, Lora and Felipe. Elizabeth and Lora both seem to be quite introverted, whereas Felipe seems to be a bit busy. Potential targets? Hmmm.

Today I finally manage to talk to Hesh, and he and I hit it off exceptionally well. In the words of Borat, VERY NICE! He's someone I'd like to be close with, especially as we're both former pre-mergers without much of a target. Indeed, I don't think my threat level is that big in this group; that's their loss, because I'd argue I'm one of the biggest social threats they have at the moment. Nobody realises it yet, though.

Speaking of Brian, he's the first person I hear a name from: Felipe. Thanks Brian, that's all I needed! He apparently heard it from Liam, but that's not what matters to me. Immediately I get to work, floating the name to some of my other close contacts: AJ, Shane, Sam, Aaron A., Isaiah and Zucc are all told the intel as casually as possible.

Brian, Shane and I do a big cheeky and form a three-way alliance - I'm feeling good with these two, and for now I don't have any intentions on stabbing them in the back. On the other hand, I'm getting nervous about AJ. We've started an alliance up, just the two of us, and he's planning on throwing a donkey vote on Brian as a joke for a comment about eating meatballs. Bloody dingus, I swear.

I do feel a bit bad for Felipe, because he's really not done anything w r o n g perse. Ultimately though, when you've got Limbo you need to watch yourself and make sure you're socialising with EVERYONE. One slip up, and you're fucked.

We'll see how this goes.
