Would you guys believe that going into the merge that Mikan is the person I have the most PMs with? Who would have thunk.

Sayaka:
"Any good plans to get everyone to like us?"

Lol, uhhhh talk to them? I love Sayaka whoever she is.

What a shitshow

I'm 95% sure Ibuki goes back to add typos in all her posts.

Monaca is so happy you made final merge!



As a result, you are a top contender to be part of the warriors of hope yaaay! More questions though!

1. What's got you feeling paranoid lately? And if you're not paranoid, why are you so cocky?

2. What is by far the strangest thing someone has told you this game? Have you been able to use this info somehow or did it just leave you completely baffled?

3. Are you worried about where you fall on alliance lines? If so, are you planning to switch things up to work in your favor? If not, how long do you think your alliance will last?

4. Do you suspect anyone of lying to you currently? Who and what?

5. Does Gundham winning the first immunity affect your plans? Is there anyone else who you would rather see not win immunity?

6. Is there anyone in game who isn't immune that you couldn't fathom being the next person voted out? Why do you feel this way about them?

That's all for now. Until next time.

1. I'd be very confident if tribal was in half an hour. But another 24 hours and who knows what can happen. Haven't heard my name mentioned yet. I've heard Hiyoko, Ibuki, Sayaka, and Nagito. My gut instinct is I'm not being tossed around as a vote yet.
Hiyoko is the easy vote that people default to if nothing else comes up.
Nagito not entirely sure why he's being mentioned, no one has directly told me why, which is concerning because it means I'm viewed as being pretty close with him. Don't want another Kirumi situation.
Sayaka is interesting in that she's trying to organize an Ibuki vote as far as I'm aware, and now Akane is hard throwing her under the bus saying Sayaka threw out Celestia's name to her and how Akane now feels so manipulated by her and wants to vote her out. Sayaka might be overplaying idk, but so far there hasn't been much to corroborate Akane's story. It doesn't make much sense. But this drama on Sayaka (even if it's a bit unfair from my perspective so far) makes her a great decoy boot.

Ibuki is the one I'm after. I've been throwing shade on her pretty much the entirety of last tribe for being manipulative and a liar. Korekiyo throwing shade like that in his dying throes was great for me. Plus, other people like Celestia and Kyoko are finally seeing how manipulative Ibuki is and want to take her out too. This Sayaka drama has people concerned, but I need to keep everyone focused on Ibuki. I'm pretty sure Celestia and Kyoko are on the same wavelength. We've got people like Nagito, Sayaka, Yasuhiro joining in I think. Mikan and Chihiro like Ibuki so not sure how they'll feel about her going. Mikan thinks Sayaka is still the vote right now, and it's still a long time before tribal so doing an intense push to see if everyone is on Ibuki right now is bad timing. I need to let it keep flowing naturally.

But I can almost feel Ibuki being voted out. I want to send a message to her right before saying "omg sorry bestie, I wanted to tell u you were the vote but I wasn't online in time and couldn't warn you in time" despite being online before deadline quite obviously. But jury management is a thing I guess so I won't do that. (Assuming we can keep the momentum going against her) This is going much easily than targeting Chihiro. But I have to remain humble and realize that I'm still a pretty minor cog in the wheel that finally is maybe getting Ibuki out. I feel like Kyoko, Celestia, and even Sayaka are even bigger cogs tbh.

2. Sayaka says very strange things to me sometimes. Her questions are just so random and sparse. I'd have nothing for 20 hours, and then a question like "how do you plan to get people to like us" or just randomly start talking about NFL football.

3. I feel like I've got a solid group with Kyoko, Celestia, and Nagito. Not as a four person tribe, but I work with all of them. Sayaka and Mikan are people I have on the side who I can hopefully work with. I feel like I have a really good relationship with Gundham too right now. Yasu I still want to get something more from him, but he is very delayed in responding to me and it's hard to progress far with him right now. I'm assuming he's just busy with 12 people for now.
This aint going to last because it's all going to explode soon.

4. Withholding truth from me? Probably everyone. Lying to me? Probably Akane (although I don't hold it against her).

5. No, Gundham winning immunity is fine. I wish I didn't get second. Speaking of which, I really wasn't trying to be that fast last challenge. But apparently I could have taken 24 hours and still won? How the heck did everyone get those questions wrong? I am going to have such a huge target on my back at this rate. I should be happy I won immunity, but I'm not honestly. But I didn't really try to throw it that hard anyway, so I guess I can't complain.

6. I'll go with Kyoko. Kyoko getting booted would be the biggest shock out of everyone still in the game non-immune.

I'm fine with the complete raw truth, but Celestia still wanted Ibuki over you. Now I'm not going to be so sure.

I'm getting the same feeling I got when I was blindsided on the Kirumi vote. CRAP

Celestia Ludenberg said:

"See I'm good at word puzzles and creativity. So I'll just keep riding on your coattails, k? Lmao"


Hmmmmm, even if this is a joke, Celestia saying she'll ride my coattails is a little suspicious. Why would she even say that. 
I might have a good justification for blindsiding her now. Saying she'll ride my coattails is I think a fair enough excuse to a jury for voting someone out.

So Akane, Hiyoko, Sayaka, Mikan, me, and Chihiro all seem to be in a group to blindside Celestia. Everyone is just assuming I'm totally okay with it which is a little weird because I've hinted so many times to most of them that I'm close with Celestia. So I am quite confused why they're all assuming I'm just on board without a second thought. They didn't ask me, they just said "it's all set, let's do it!"

I'm pretty tight with all three of Celestia/Kyoko/Gundham, and was hoping to ride this out a little longer before usurping them. If I vote against one the other two get angry. If I did one, it would be Celestia because I got a flimsy excuse that I could justify it with (she said she was going to ride my coattails). Kyoko is away because timezone, so it wouldn't be awkward talking to him about it leading up to the vote, and I might be able to frame it as him being seen as a power couple with Celetstia. And Gundham is someone I think I can logically get back on my side. He seems very practical and a bit alone.
Gundham was feeling pretty alone last vote because no one was talking to him despite people being online, so I bonded with him by pretending to be in the same situation. I think that was enough that I can get away with one blindside on him.

The alternative is voting out Sayaka (even though I'm soft pushing a Hiyoko vote with the other group). But that makes Akane and Mikan angry at me. I've gone against Mikan SO MANY TIMES and if I do it again without voting her out then...... I can't even. Thing is, the Celestia/Kyoko/Gundham/(throw in Nagito as well) group thinks Chihiro is with them too.

So both sides are expecting me and Chihiro to be with them. So we're the swing votes as far as I can tell.

So I tell Chihiro we need to actually work together pretty closely since we find ourselves in such a similar position.
And she says "I feel you're earnest, but I don't think Nagito likes me and I know you're buddies with him so that might be awkward in the future if we work too closely"
SERIOUSLY CHIHIRO? Now is not the time for that. WE'RE THE SWING VOTES AND WE HAVE TO ACT TOGETHER

Also as I type this, I just realized I have no idea where the heck Yasuhiro fits in this. I legitimately forgot about him.

Hellooo!!! I am Monaaaccaaaaaaaa!!!!



One of you has accepted the offer to become a Warrior of Hope! Praise Junko!!!



You are so close to the end, yet so far. How many more of you will I offer a spot to? Let's find out!

1. Does Mikan winning immunity change how you were planning to handle this tribal? If so, what were you planning prior? If not, do you have an idea how the current vote is going to go?

2. Are you starting to form thoughts about not only how to get to the end, but who to go with? If so, who and how? If not, what is your plan?

3. Who do you feel has the most influence in game right now?

4. Do you see this game as more alliance driven or are voting blocks (aka small groups of people) forming to vote whichever way is convenient? Have you identified any of these alliances or blocks? Feel free to let the specs know ^_^

5. Are you starting to think, oh god I really could win this? Or are you still paranoid as fuck?

6. Do you feel safe currently?

That's all for now, stay tuned for more interview questions! And remember, death to all adults!!!

I'm pretty sure the stress of the game got to Chihiro. My last message with her was her saying how miserable this merge is, and how no matter which side she went with, she'd be a backstabber. I tried to encourage her by saying we'd be backstabbers together and share the load. :/

Like, I totally get what she's feeling if that's what it is. I felt it during the Sonia vs. Kirumi vote. And the Kirumi vs. Mikan vote. I wanted to just get voted out then.
Best of luck Chihiro <3 You're too nice for this game.
