Tribal Council #12 - Discussion

Tribal Council

    

Hello Malamalama and welcome to Tribal Council.

Let's get right to the questions.

Morgan - Congratulations on winning individual Immunity! Along with Immunity you earned yourself a visit to Treasure Trove and a secured spot in the Final 5. How important is Immunity to you now that the game is entering the final stages? Would you consider it more important than the social game, or of equal or lesser importance?

Jaclyn - You received votes in the last Tribal Council. The closer we get to the Finals, does seeing your name draw even more concern? There has been a lot of shifting of allegiances in this game, do you think this trend will continue or have allegiances solidified?

Brenda and Courtney - The Finals are approaching and the number of remaining players in the game is dwindling. How important is it to take into consideration who you can beat in the end? At this stage have you begun thinking about how you can win the game, or is this something that you have been thinking of the whole time?

Bob and Pete - This game has been all about blindsides and shifting allegiances. How have you been able to make your way through this rocky waters and get yourself to this point? Do you think there will still be blindsides up until the Final Tribal Council? How do you prevent yourself from being blindsided?

The voting deadline is Monday February 2nd at 10:30pm EST. If you do not vote by this time, you will receive a self-vote. As you already know, voting is to be done in your thread titled "Voting History" using the parchment below. Good luck!

interesting question. it is concerning, but at the end of the day there's not much i can do about it. people have been shifting and changing, but i think people realize when there's a time to stop because if you flip every single round you're just going to end up with 8 or 9 pissed off people looking at you from the jury bench, and i don't think anyone here is playing for that outcome. it's possible it will continue but like i said there's a limit to what you should try and do in regards to that strategy. too much fucks you over.

ALSO

i'm using this on myself tonight ^_^



team jaclyn is blasting off again weeeeeeeeee

Jaclyn has used the Cannonball on herself.

The Cannonball removes someone from Tribal Council, therefore, Jaclyn cannot receive any votes nor can she vote.

Tribal Council will continue as scheduled. The voting deadline is still February 2nd at 10:30pm EST.

So... that happened.

Brenda and Courtney - The Finals are approaching and the number of remaining players in the game is dwindling. How important is it to take into consideration who you can beat in the end? At this stage have you begun thinking about how you can win the game, or is this something that you have been thinking of the whole time?

I think it is extremely important to be thinking about who you can beat in the end. If you haven't been thinking about it than you've already lost the game. Sucks to be you.

I think it's mostly the events that happened at final 10 that made me able to just stay out of trouble for this long. I minded my business, and it paid off.

Plan for blindsides forever and always, sadly. I don't want to think "hey I'm doing OK!" and then suddenly not do OK.

Main plan to not be blindsided is to get immunity. If I don't do that, then all bets are off and just cross your fingers. Survivor's a bit of a bumpy ride.

~I mean I feel like if you are truly playing this game this is something you are constantly thinking about and going over dozens of scenarios in your head. Sometimes you gotta do things that might not be what you want exactly.

It's definitely important because there's been tons of people flipping throughout the game but I don't think a jury member will be happy with someone who just flipped back and forth. I think the social game is always important.
