Whenever I see someone less clinical than I
(and let's face it—who isn't less clinical than I?)
My lizard brain
Drives me insane
And when someone's stats are broken over
I simply have to take over
I know, I know exactly what they need
And even in this case
Though it's the toughest case I've yet to face
Don't worry—I'm determined to succeed
Follow my lead
And yes, indeed
We will be...

Optimal!
We're gonna be optimal!
I'll teach you the proper stats
To get left and right
Little ways to tweak and change
I'll show you where positions go
How to save the goal!
Everything that really counts

To be optimal!
I'll help us be optimal!
We'll hang with the right cohorts
We'll be good at sports
Know the slang we've got to know
So let's start
'Cause we've got an awfully long way to go...

Don't be offended by my frank analysis
The jargon makes a bigger job of fixing this
Now that I've chosen to become a team, a pla-
yer and drafter
There's nobody wiser

Not when it comes to optimal!
I know about optimal!
And with an assist from me
The best team we'll be!
Instead of dreary who-you-were... or are...
There's nothing that can stop us
From becoming optimal-laaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!

Hey, bud. Interesting game eh. I do not know much aboot soccer but I know lots aboot Hockey, eh. Portland does not have a Hockey team to cheer for so I guess that means I don't need to root against ya eh. SORRY TO BE BLUNT but I heard the Arizona Coyotes are thinking aboot joining and becoming a Portland team eh. Sorry but I one of these days we may clash a bit bud if that were to happen. My fellow Canadiens say I sometimes have a temper when it comes to hockey. I once raised my voice a bit when the opposing team got a puck in my net, bud. Not my proudest moment, eh. I think we all have our vices but you just have got to know how to deal with your anger, eh? Understand how to forgive and just learn to say "Sorry!". Its the Canadien way, eh?

Sorry if you encounter any of my outbursts during the game, eh. Sorry to be blunt... but I don't now how you brave southerners do it, eh. You Americans sure get up to some wacky stuff down there, eh? Don't want to talk politics but sorry to say it but I would not want to get injured down south if you know what I mean eh?

I actually am a lumberjack eh? Down here in Quebec forestry is one of the lifebloods of our economy, eh. Fun fact eh? I know more aboot wood than just aboot anyone else in this game I reckon. Maybe that can help us have some common ground to talk aboot. Or will I have to chop you down? Time will tell eh. Sorry if I got to to do that. Je suis comme ci comme sa if that were to happen, eh!

"I am as if like that"? I would say no one cares about hockey but someone picked the Maple Leafs.

Maybe I was overthinking this. Houston said he got code players. So this was probably a soccer guy.

Hello teams,

Below are a few burning questions I'd just love to know the answers to. If you answer these in your confessionals to my satisfaction, you may gain access to something fun tomorrow. No spoilers!

[1] Both divisions have now had one Draft Order ranking. What surprised you about your division's ranking? Are you happy with where you fell?
[2] Have you formed any alliances yet? If so, with whom? What is the purpose of this alliance? Are alliances even relevant in this gamemode?
[3] From Bowser Jr: If you were going to TC, who would you want to vote out? Do you think you could get the support needed to make that happen? If so, who would be voting with you?
[4] What is your favorite sports joke? Mine is referring to ice skates as "dangerous knife shoes."
[5] Have you devoted any thought to Idols? Who do you think will get the Supporter's Shield? Have you made any progress on the Lamar Hunt Idol?

1: How the NAUGHTY WORD did Houston get so high? Colorado and I collaborated our results to rank San Jose, Vancouver and Kansas low so.. it's likely I was 7th otherwise. It makes one nervous. Portland appeared to be making a bad impression on people via not being present so I expected not to be too high but.. with San Jose and Colorado promising higher results I thought 4/5 could be possible. It probably means someone really doesn't like me.
2: Colorado is sworn to me, San Jose has an alliance, I've told Seattle I'd do whatever he commands and he's offered to trade me players if I don't get enough. Everyone else is socially okay in some form. Colorado might be my most important alliance because no one else is working with him. I believe when it becomes clear he's fucked he will be willing to give me his best players to make sure I do well.
3: LA Galaxy because he's not present. The vote order would go Galaxy and Dallas, then I'd want Vancouver to go. Because there isn't a vote and elimination like that I'm not working alliances in terms of having to 'save' people like Colorado because I can't.
4: The Toronto Maple Leafs.
5: Here's how much progress I've made on the Lamar Idol: Zero! I haven't touched it. No one is talking about it.. Galaxy was before he disappeared, I gave what I found to Colorado and he hasn't done anything with it. Supporter Shield isn't me so I'm not much fussed. It'll probably go to whoever keeps winning the puzzle draft. That appears to be someone on the other team.

Speaking of the other team, I should PM them. Portland didn't.

Seattle told me to stop drafting people under 70 strength.
Counterpoint: There are like three USA people with 70 or higher and I have one of them, 68-69 is not bad.

Seattle congratulated me on getting someone over 70 strength
I'm like
This guy isn't really that good

Maybe on this tribe it'll be enough to get sixth. :/

Game design note:

I'm a little sad that this game is soccer simulator until pre-merge and then plain survivor afterwards. Sad!
I like the teams counting in ties thing, but this could have been taken a step further: Soccer teams could have been like VPL and team strength = voting strength. Then the daily puzzles for players and random soccer guy awards could have continued. Either way I'll miss doing them!
