WHOOOA, I've finally got some conversation worth posting here. Before we shuffled, we had a suspicion something like this would happen, and Bella and I spoke about different scenarios for the shuffle. Well, me and Mike are currently in one of those situations. We're on a tribe with two Bon Temps members + Sookie (who is not active from what we can see).
If that is the case, then he suggested we throw the challenge, lose, and try to use the potential self-vote and penalty vote that Sookie would receive from being inactive in our favor. That would put us two and two over here, and four on five overall. Then we'd be able to work from there. Well, I guess he pitched the idea to Mike too, and we've been talking about it:
bballchris878 (6:46:22 PM): haiiii
bballchris878 (6:46:33 PM): its Mike Newton from ORG
belmontjay72 (6:46:40 PM): Hey there
bballchris878 (6:46:50 PM): ...or Finklestein. Whichever you prefer. xD
belmontjay72 (6:46:58 PM): Ahh, that helps, lol
bballchris878 (6:47:05 PM): lol
belmontjay72 (6:47:09 PM): What's up?
bballchris878 (6:47:23 PM): nothing much, a bit tired, how about you?
belmontjay72 (6:47:30 PM): Meh, not a whole lot
belmontjay72 (6:47:37 PM): just waiting on the challenge. 7, right?
bballchris878 (6:47:47 PM): indeed.
belmontjay72 (6:48:04 PM): ugh, we need to win this :\
bballchris878 (6:48:09 PM): Did you talk to cournojo before the shuffle?
belmontjay72 (6:48:18 PM): Yeah, a bit
belmontjay72 (6:49:19 PM): It's a huge risk. i mean, assuming sookie won't participate is a big risk
belmontjay72 (6:49:23 PM): if she does, we're screwwed
bballchris878 (6:49:30 PM): yeahhh
belmontjay72 (6:49:35 PM): but i suppose either way, we're in a rough position
bballchris878 (6:49:41 PM): yes
bballchris878 (6:49:44 PM): it sucks
bballchris878 (6:49:57 PM): It's like the host wants us to lose, lol
belmontjay72 (6:50:24 PM): it just especially sucks, because he's not on forks, and if we lose, he sits pretty. i don't mean to sound like a douche (courn is cool in my book), but it's easy for him now
bballchris878 (6:50:44 PM): lol, so true.
belmontjay72 (6:50:56 PM): and who's to say that Bon temps won't be targeting sookie anyway
belmontjay72 (6:51:03 PM): considering if she doesn't play, she gets those two votes
bballchris878 (6:51:14 PM): thats true too.
belmontjay72 (6:51:15 PM): it'd be two, two, and two
belmontjay72 (6:51:21 PM): (if we don't vote for her)
belmontjay72 (6:51:24 PM): and they vote one of us
bballchris878 (6:51:38 PM): yeah.
belmontjay72 (6:52:07 PM): so the way I see it, if she doesn't compete, she's gone pretty much no matter what...unless she competes and comes back to vote...in which case...we don't stand a chance
belmontjay72 (6:52:16 PM): if she does compete, and we lose, we gotta do some big scrambling
bballchris878 (6:52:23 PM): mhmm
belmontjay72 (6:52:29 PM): essentially, i'd like to win, LOL
bballchris878 (6:52:35 PM): haha
belmontjay72 (6:52:40 PM): but that leaves ex-forks in the dust :\
belmontjay72 (6:52:43 PM): I don't really know what to do
bballchris878 (6:52:58 PM): me neither
bballchris878 (6:53:25 PM): what if we win every challenge until it turns into individual?
belmontjay72 (6:53:29 PM): it sucks, but the absolute safest thing for either one of us is to win
belmontjay72 (6:53:40 PM): then we're still in the minority
belmontjay72 (6:53:50 PM): assuming tribal lines stay in tact that whole time
bballchris878 (6:53:58 PM): yeah
bballchris878 (6:55:14 PM): meh, I think I have no chance at all, lol
belmontjay72 (6:55:21 PM): why's that?
belmontjay72 (6:55:37 PM): if sookie sucks as much as he thinks, and we lose, we're not especially close to a conventional merge
bballchris878 (6:55:38 PM): since I was inactive for the first 2 rounds and came back late in the game
belmontjay72 (6:55:53 PM): eh, we'll see. I wouldn't count you out yet!!
belmontjay72 (6:56:31 PM): If we bust our asses, the active Bon Temps might keep us...though it wouldn't exactly be smart on their part :\
bballchris878 (6:56:40 PM): yeah
belmontjay72 (6:56:51 PM): I say we compete
bballchris878 (6:57:04 PM): me too
belmontjay72 (6:57:08 PM): Cool
bballchris878 (6:57:22 PM): Are you a boy, or a girl?
belmontjay72 (6:57:43 PM): I'm a guy, lol. *offers handshake* I'm JB :]
bballchris878 (6:57:49 PM): hahahaha
bballchris878 (6:57:58 PM): what character do you play?
belmontjay72 (6:58:01 PM): Alice
bballchris878 (6:58:19 PM): oh idk who she is, lol. I don't watch Twilight or True Blood. xD
belmontjay72 (6:58:45 PM): she's from Twilight. the only character i knew besides Edward or Bella. I don't anything about them either, LOL
bballchris878 (6:58:57 PM): lol
bballchris878 (6:59:05 PM): idk who Mike Newton is either
bballchris878 (6:59:11 PM): and I play him
belmontjay72 (6:59:24 PM): *shrug* no idea
