Chihiro was my secret (?) #1. Like, threatening Chihiro means all bets are off. That alliance you said, it was totally a thing but, when they started making noises Chihiro's way I was done. Plus Kyoko and Gundham couldn't care less if I got hit by a bus. Also I clicked super well with Sayaka early, I was working to keep her safe too.

ahahahahahahahahhahahaahhahahaha

Juror 4: Hiyoko Yasuhiro

Well Julie, anything can happen in survivor. Celeste and I are back together, and I learned from Celeste that Hiyoko is sticking to the greys like some gum on a shoe, trying to stick onto the big shoe that is walking forwards in the game, until it sticks to the ground and makes the big shoe trip and fall

Unfortunately for her, greys were telling me they just wanted to cut her in F8 since they didn't trust her. lol, you really destroyed your reputation this game.

It's a big brother round, time to start playing big brother. There's a conflict currently going on, involving Celeste, Hiyoko, Sayaka, Mikan... ie. there's no way I'm ever going to get put on the block. I throw the HOH competition to avoid drawing attention to myself.

Kyoko ends up winning it, cool. She's not gonna put me up. She consults with Celeste and myself in very quick chatroom paced messages. Celeste and I are telling her "Put up Sayaka next to Hiyoko and who cares who goes out!! However, Kyoko tells me that she wants to go after a big threat. That gives me a spook because I was pretty sure I was a big threat, but no, she actually meant Yasuhiro and Mikan. So this is potentially nightmare scenario for me, since Mikan would die with that idol that she can't even play and I'd be screwed. Fortunately, she is put up but not as a target at all. Kyoko tells me that Hiyoko would be the replacement, which is fine by me.

So Sayaka wins veto, takes down Mikan, puts up Hiyoko. Perfect. Now is my chance to get rid of the 4th member of the grey triangle and then start voting them off (except for Celeste)!!! I start campaigning hard for Hiyoko. I write huge essays to Kyoko/Celeste to say that "she literally backstabs all her allies and you're going to be next". They tell me that she will just be the next vote so it's okay. I still want her out now!!!

So at this point I've pleaded my case to everybody except for Gundham, I haven't changed anybody's mind and it is already becoming night. Gundham, feeling left out, comes to me and says "why haven't you sold your case to me yet?" so we engage in some discussion, and the absolute madman actually convinces me that it's in my best interest to vote for Yasuhiro here instead of Hiyoko. He talks to me about power rankings, and how I'm going to be seen as a threat and people are gonna come after me if I just take out the two easy votes (HiyokoSayaka) back to back. I really think about this for a bit, and I realize the only people I don't really have a plan on how to get rid of are Yasuhiro and Shuichi. So wouldn't it be nice if I got one of them now? But I just spent my whole day pushing for Hiyoko! It's time to make a move that's best for me and me alone, and then lie about it to everyone in the game to make sure it doesn't get out.

The plan is set. I tell Gundham "good points, but I respectfully disagree with you." I go and wish Hiyoko a personal goodbye message, for added effect. I change my vote to Yasuhiro, embracing my role as anime villain, planning to frame shuichi for the stray vote 'cause he's sketch, and I go to bed.
...
...
...i can't sleep. what if people figure out it's me. what if this destroys my reputation. what if i slip up. no.... I need to rethink this. I go back to the computer. I go over my notes, I weigh both sides of it. I can safely vote out Hiyoko here, it's all good. The numbers are still with me. I change my vote to Hiyoko and go back to bed.
...
...
...i still can't sleep. what if i'm throwing away a good move. yasuhiro is going to steal my seat in FTC. i need to make some plays for my FTC resume. I go back to the computer. I look at my notes in my confessional again. Nope, it's all good. We can safely vote for Hiyoko here. All is well. Just take it easy, go to bed. You're going to be fine.
...
...
...I wake up. It's about 10 min to the deadline. I go to the computer. There's still time to change my vote. I can make the play. What was the point in all those theatrics with Gundham and Hiyoko if I don't do anything with it? I can't just let that go to waste. 3 seconds before the deadline, I change my vote to Yasuhiro, pop out of my chair, and start pacing around the room.

Everyone has a great laugh at the hilarious eviction ceremony that takes place. Now, I learned from Hiyoko how NOT to go about telling a lie, so I start playing this one subtly. I only speak about this when spoken to, I don't try to push anything too fast. I play it by ear. Shuichi isn't looking like a good target to frame anymore since he's just laughing everything off, so I switch gears and start spreading to a few people that Sayaka flipped the vote to try to bump herself one position forward in the boot order so she wouldn't be next. Sayaka doesn't trust me anymore, but that's fine, she won't last long.

Next vote will be Hiyoko VS Sayaka 2: Sayaka's Revenge, and it's like Yasuhiro was never in the game. I am beginning to feel a bit better about my chances of winning. To be continued..

Juror 5: Hiyoko

So yeah now it was time to get rid of easy boots Hiyoko/Sayaka since they destroyed their reputations and no one wanted to align with them. I was on the fence between Hiyoko and Sayaka for a bit, but Hiyoko made a few things very clear.

1. she was aligning with greys (bad! don't want them to have majority!)
2. she was going to fight for her life!!! if i kept her (so why would i ever want to keep her)

Then for some reason I got a leaked plan from Hiyoko & Celeste that Sayaka was trying to blindside me which at first I didn't believe, but then I realized it was totally true so basically it killed any hope she had of me trying to save her next round. However it was still best for me to vote out Hiyoko so I did.

Juror 6: Sayaka

absolutely no one needed her in the game anymore for any reason so we just voted her out and kind of laughed behind her back at all her plans, it kept things entertaining tbh. Myself (and maybe Nagito? no one claimed to be the second vote) voted for Gundham in case of an idol. something i should have stayed in the habit of doing

Coming up next Kyoko vote (mostly doing this series for Ibuki & the early jurors)

I kept asking people if they had advantages and hearing "what's an advatage" turns out basically everyone except for me in this merge had something lmao. Classic. Looks like you went 4-2 anyway which I think is nuts for Celestia and yeah I was definitely rooting against you but during the game and now I knew you were playing hard.

thinking about it you were the only person who actually told me they wanted that vote. you did it in a clever way as well. well done.

that's a good play, but I think shuichi and chichi really did individually want to vote her out too. I guess you pushed it to everybody else? Good on that.

When you were talking with me throughout this game, you kind of gave the impression you didn't want to work with me. On the subject of Hiyoko, when I was suggesting I replace her with myself, you said something like "I don't make many allies, but I put blind faith in the ones I do make" which read to me like "sorry, I've given up, we can't be allies, i'm doomed".

Ibuki was like...my third favorite vote at that point, if I were to have ranked it? Maybe fourth? I was fine with it but yeah Kyoko was definitely pushing it very hard

Also the reason celes played the idol there was that it was f6 only
