Okay so originally I was going to make a new thread for each day but I'm finding myself honestly just not having that much to say so it's hard to remember to.

So yeah, if I have thoughts from now on I'm going to post them here.

I really need to get better with PMing this game, I've been seriously slacking. It's just hard to find motivation to PM when you don't have any future votes to plan.

Yay, we won the challenge! Multiple people are telling me that I'm high on their ranking lists because they like me and my current team's shitty, so if they're honest hopefully I wind up with an okay spot. My suckage at puzzles might work to my advantage.

But people could easily lie about their rankings, there's nothing stopping them.

So basically my strategy is to just PM everyone trying to get them to put me high on their order, I want those high-points people.

I also need to start figuring out a configuration of players because right now I don't have any duplicate positions but I hope the people that I have do all fit into some sort of order.

Colorado literally just told me that if I was in trouble and needed players to make the merge, he'd be willing to trade with me to make sure that I was able to make it.

That's honestly so nice, I don't really know why he would do that, but it's absolutely the right thing to be saying to me right before I rank my fellow tribemates.

My team is going to suck when it comes to my own puzzle ability, but if I can get a high ranking on this draft I'm going to feel pretty good about my chances of at least making the merge, that's what I've just got to hope for anyway.

Seattle just offered to trade me Zusi at some point in order to keep me in the game too! It's honestly really sad, I'm not going to have these people's backs if they help me out. Like, I mean I guess if you trade me the player that I need to stay alive and sacrifice your chance at the idol in order to keep me in the game I'm basically forced to be loyal to you up until a point because you saved me and I look like an awful person if I turn my back on you after that. It's like I'm Jessica Lewis from MvGX and David saved me with an idol premerge, I can't openly target that person or I've basically given up whatever shot at winning the game I had. But at the same time, my loyalty only goes that far. There are definitely people who would be more loyal if they got saved than me, but I'm not in a position to tell people that. My team sucks, I'm in a position to smile and ask to be highly ranked. I'm in a position where I have to promise the world to every player or I'm going to be doomed and I can deal with the mess that I'm in come merge once the merge arrives.

I'm also being a hypocrite in my conversation with Colorado right now where we're saying that we only like to tell people that we feel close to them if we legitimately feel that way. I do legitimately like Colorado, but if someone tells me that they like me hell yeah I'm going to agree with them. I need players to be traded to me, what am I supposed to do? I either have to do that or die.

People that have claimed to have me as their number one: Houston and Sporting Kansas City.

People that have claimed to have me high: Seattle, Columbus

People that I haven't heard from since we won: Everyone else

I think San Jose will probably put me high and I have a chance with Salt Lake too. LA and Portland are enigmas though, who knows what they might do. I have a decent chance at a high spot though, most people seem on board. I'm hopeful anyway, this is the part of the game that I can actually game. I've got to succeed here or I'm doomed.

At this point I'm just promising the moon to everyone, I have so many number one allies it's actually ridiculous. I just need all of the help I can get if I'm going to live through this, but god, if I do make the merge I'm going to have to be a pretty shitty person if I'm going to stay around.

San Jose just told me that he put me at the top of his ranking. That's so awkward considering how low I ranked him, I hate situations like that. I'm being really tricky.

Also I sent RSL my entire team and he forwarded it to Sporting Kansas City, so that's annoying. I can't tell RSL things that I don't want getting around apparently.
