Ok so like so far the game has started out pretty chill. The teams were HILARIOUSLY unbalanced, like black were CLEARLY the weakest, Blue CLEARLY the strongest, then my team [RED] in the middle. My initial plan was to throw the first challenge to Black team. Blue were going to as well. I talked to Christian and Eric as I know they're in a fine spot, and the plan was gonna be for me to go into the first elim and turncoat, then Brittany go in the second, so we both landed on the blue team.
Issue? Black were incapable AF in the challenge to the point they had to pull out, so Blue took the win. The vote was kinda simple. Brittany told me she could get Nels and Michael, I know Tyler and Zach are close as Zach told me, and although I don't have the best relationship with Tyler, we both know we're the strongest two on our team so like yeah, so that kinda left Gera as the odd man out. I LIKE Gera, but yeah. He was understanding too, and almost... volunteered, saying he understood if we voted him, which realistically just made the decision easier for us all. Gera then WON the elim, and good on him! He stayed on the team too.
We lost the second challenge again, this wasn't one we could throw as such because like most my team AREN'T throwing so yeah, I put in effort but unfortunately we still lost. Tyler decided to make a chat with 5 of my 7 teammates, him, Brittany, Michael, Zach and myself. I said Gera had already earned his stripes , so doing Nels made sense for us, and that should be what happens tonight I guess.
Tyler ALSO said he wanted to throw to Black so CHRISTIAN could go into elimination and turncoat to us, which was just sorta funny in the regard I'd already planned that, but for ME to go in. But yeah there's many options for how the future could go right now. I know I'm fine on my team like being one of the strongest is useful in the regard it simply saves me, and we'll see where things go I guess! Definitely not against going into a few elims if needed though, and hopefully winning [obviously]. I'd rather have a more fun time and do more challenges and lose just before finals than have a gamebot SAFE SAFE SAFE chart the entire game and lose the final! But still early days.
