Winning is fun though.
I hope you're both able to survive these class trials you're facing. From my lack of knowledge of everyone else there, I assume you'll be fine though.

I’m struggling. It’s hard, trying to choose which friend to execute.
It’s not fair.

I think the vote is settled here! If there's a swap maybe some of us will get a chance to meet up? Not sure when cliques are coming into play. There must be something to it.

Cliques just seem to be a communication bridge between teams. Teams are important, right?
Also, looks like we’re in over here too.

Kaede, having yourself die doesn't save your friends.

Oh no Kaede I liked her too. I was gonna tell her I played piano and like classical music too I guess this is sort of a PM chat now? Or is there some reason we should be wary? How you doing ultimate Chef! As you can tell I am a princess with strong biceps.

I don't trust this image of Kaede at the front to know she's gone for good. Makes me think there's a chance of revival. But I guess in the meantime it's pretty much a PM chat anyway. I'm doing well thanks Ultimate Princess. At least I think I've now got connections that will keep me in this tribe, can't exactly test it while we're not in tribal, but also happy to not be there. I assume I'm combing my hair to make sure none gets into the food I'm cooking, sounds like a good reason. Also because I like nice hair.

I wouldn't be surprised if the eliminated players still have a role to play in the game of some kind. That's kind of a hallmark of bastard games!
Yeah I'm jealous of your wins
I guess you haven't played DR then? Your character likes to flirt a lot so that's probably why he's combing his hair. But your explanation is good too
Gotta sleep now but I'll keep up with this clique more now! Its surprisingly awkward with 3 people.

I know if I hear bastard I expect eliminated players still participate. So I guess that means we should take it to actual PMs, when we're allowed to actually chat to be safe. Which would involve potentially voting people out of a tribe we share, so yeah different in that case.
I haven't played DR, but I have heard about my characters "flirtliness". I was trying to hint at it with the second one on that reason, but yeah it's also good thing to do anyway. *goes to comb my actual hair* I wasn't sure if you were joking about your biceps being strong, as I can't actually tell how strong someone's biceps are by them doing that pose. But then having watched one of the shrek movies and seen princess bicep power in actual, I'd believe it.
Might have been better without Junko to start with, idk - I guess if you have a 3 person chat, you actually want to choose the 3 people in there if possible - but gorup PMs weren't allowed here. But I also understand because I had no idea where to start with the clique either.

And at least we can both win immunity this time. If the last challenge had two victorious tribes we'd have been fine, although nothing that could have been done about losing Kaede.

Post by Sonia Nevermind on Aug 25, 2018 17:34:56 GMT
Yeah I agree with that. But I think we're safe to talk a bit freely at least here. I mean its kind of expected!
I don't know if the mods gave you that character of if you picked it. He's not a very well liked character >_<
I'm glad you believe me! You should fear my spectacular strength.
Junko definitely gave us a rough start. For the first 20 hours or so we weren't sure she'd show up at all so it was all just waiting. I definitely hope we can both win immunity. We did both do pretty well on the last challenge though our tribe was just a bit less so.

Yeah, they clearing have these cross-tribal lines in place for a reason, so we'd better use them. I assume spectators can probably also read these conversations, but that's just useful for them.
The mods gave me my character, the option was there, so might as well have them choose someone to improve the character of than me throwing darts at a list of names to get a character.
If we get a physical challenge I know my winning streak might come to an end, well judging just based on the facts of muscles that we have.
Well if she didn't I guess that means I would have actually entered the game sooner than when I did replace in - unless one of the transfer students took over, but my assumption is they were destined to start playing in that second round anyway.
We got the immunties, and my tribe didn't actually win that one, so well done to your tribe. I wasn't nearly as good at those challenges as the last one, but I think that might have been be me starting with the wrong numbers as to my abilities - although kind of ruined my jigsaw planet being down or something while we were doing it. (if you were wondering why/how we got a half point).
It'll be interesting to see what is next.

Very true! But I guess not much of interest is happening over on your tribe since you haven't needed to vote anyone off? Could be a bad assumption. Not sure if I went into any detail about our boots. Toko was a sort of combination of not very active + roleplaying way too hard + asking strange questions so that was easy for us. Kirumi was kind of overly formal and hard to talk to I guess. I guess that's one way of looking at it. You can improve the character for everyone now! You could probably still win a physical challenge since you have Gonta! He looks even stronger than me! Maybe? I wonder if Korekiyo knows anything about that. I'm surprised at how well we ended up doing! You lucky ducks still didn't have to go to tribal though I did like that challenge quite a bit. Its a good thing that the Jigsaw didn't end up impacting anything! That would've been kind of rough. A swap? Otherwise we'd have to wait 2 more boots and that seems a bit more than the usual. I could see 2 tribes or 4 tribes either as possible. Of course, there's always a chance some numbers get played around with again, you never know with this setup. They could just keep adding in new players so the game goes on forever I suppose >_<

Yeah it's getting quite stale, we made brief plans of possibly taking action in one direction before we won the second challenge of these tribes - I assume everyone else had made brief plans during the first challenge that Junko would die. You hadn't mentione your boots here other than Toko being something else, but since this is still early game and people I never met, the reasons why someone gets booted don't really matter to me, unless it's exciting with big lines across the tribe. I now that my perspective on characters has definitely changed in some cases from previous survivor games, with imaging the person that played the character is the actual character. Don't know if I can really do much for Teruteru, as the reason people hate him will still be there. I'd hate me to if I was actually like that. Gonta has been pretty strong in the challenges we've had so far, so assuming individual ones later in the game it'll be fairly unknown. I will have to ask Korekiyo what the mods actually told them when they received their acceptance PM. Not entirely sure how to go about that, or if I care enough. Just keep avoiding tribal, good enough for me. Only 3 of my tribe have been at all. Well if the jigsaw was working it would have been completed, I was quite annoyed I didn't get to do it tbh, but then it worked later and I didn't bother. I think based on the 'exile island' thread that's just been posted means that a swap is coming. Possibly with a returning player. I don't think they're be adding any new players, Masaru Daimon and Teruteru Hanamura don't seem to have logged in, so there's not likely any people left that could come in, so thankfully we shouldn't have to deal with those. Could also go up to 5 tribes, but I think they'd have done their one session of 4 people tribes for the game. I hope they have anyway.

I assume we should just rank each other high in the popularity contest. As there's a whole third of the game I'm going to be able to know nothing about. (Well actually less since you have met two of them), and it shouldn't matter too much where everyone else goes, I think just place them randomly.

Post by Sonia Nevermind on Aug 27, 2018 8:14:43 GMT
They could always come back you know! I doubt either of them would do well in any exile sort of thing though.
I kind of feel like the opposite. If I play Dangan Ronpa again its gonna be like "Oh, its that guy/girl who was really X". I'm sure that my impressions have been slightly altered by characters here though! (I might have judged you a bit if you had picked Teruteru knowingly lol)
(I meant his avatar lol I don't know how he's been from here. Didn't really read the other subforums too much)
Might be something there with Korekiyo. I kind of doubt it.
I guess the other 5 of you are the only ones that haven't been to tribal!
A returnee sounds possible. That raises all sorts of questions too. Probably not worth losing sleep over it yet.
Without really knowing anything about what the purpose of the ranking is, I'm not sure what to do. I'd like to not come last and that's about it. I'll put you as my number one if you like since answers aren't revealed. Could be swap related... could also be something for most and least popular. Hopefully having each other near the top is beneficial in some way though.
Good luck with the challenge! You've done well so far so I don't think I should have to worry about you too much there. I'm pretty nervous about it but probably for nothing.

I'm not fussed where you actually place me. If I try doing anything with names I haven't met, kaede's tribe will go low because they voted her out.
I still need to think, which I probably don't have time to do, but I assume rating well is a thing you want to do.
When the challenge gives prizes, it would make sense that this popularity contest will give prizes as well. (Or just determine new tribes)

I ghuess I'd better get to the rest of your message, just wanted to add stuff about the popularity poll while I was there. and then I forgot to come back to this after I got home and did the challenge.
Looks like Kirumi has managed to come back. I hope that doesn't effect you later on down the track. I thought exile beach was only a new thing on australian survivor, not coming back with returnee challenges already in this game. Himiko leaving is probably find though, they were highly likely to be the boot on my tribe had we gone to tribal council.
I hope if I ever decide to play danganronpa I can think oh it's that person, but then it'll be even sadder when they die - therefore I now have extra reason to never play it. I guess you were judging Junko when she never showed up right at the start making this a mean clique. i haven't really looked at his avatar, he talked a bit right at the start and then went quiet on me, so I've forgotten what he actually looks like.
Korekiyo came up with the same assumption I made that they would have replaced in had someone vanished/quit during the first day.
The purpose of the ranking was always going to be new tribes, it's just whether they did anything else silly with it. I would assume you're not actually the bottom, but that's way too low for the person I had at the top of my list. At least you should have some potential easy boots on that tribe if it doesn't work out well in future challenges.
The videos were easier than I thought to put back together, watching the source ones I thought it was going to be an unfair disadvantage to me that's never played any. But I guess there was no footage that almost repeated, so it was simple enough to complete. On to the next round,. This game is going to be slow in having people get eliminated it seems.

if someone has seen the dangan ronpa island theme video enough to be able to solve that challenge on memory alone, then there's something seriously wrong with their life and i'm okay with them having an advantage

That's a lot of potential for prizes... but this is a bastard game. Its going to be a bit awkward with Kirumi since we're on the same tribe again. I did vote for her, so there's going to be a lot of questions. Hopefully I handle it well! Feel bad for Himiko but at least nobody who was doing well had a surprise death. I'm not too worried about not being popular Its sad but probably because I don't have a lot of public posts. Or so I hope. At least I haven't heard anyone say bad things about me yet... I dunno how the dynamics of this tribe will be, its kind of a weird thing. Yeah with all the names and stuff it wasn't as bad as it could've been. I still took pretty long to check everything because I felt sure someone would make mistakes. I don't mind the pace of this game! Its nice getting to meet people and stuff.

Prizes possibly equal empty boxes, or just challenge advantages that Makoto has already pulled from somewhere.
As long as her vote didn't get directed at you last time, I think you should be fine, I have faith that you'll be able to handle it anyway. You've also got Mikan and Shuichi there, so that probably means you're able to just vote her out again. I am surprised to learn that 3 of the bottom four people in the poll came from the same tribe. Pity you're therefore only being Sayaka for the first time, but I do know her message quality dropped off at the end of the previous tribal phase. I hope she can bring it up well again, but I'm not fussed.
I didn't even think about looking at public posts for inspiration while casting popularity votes. I don't think my public posts would have got me as high as I got. I have no idea how the dynamics of my new tribe will be either, other than very likely complicated. It's a lot harder to judge when you end up with everyone actually messaging - I guess it will depend where it ends up going.
True, and with it being a bstard game, I suppose it should be expected that twists and things will happen and slow it down. The last survivor I played just seemed a lot quicker, probably because of much simpler stuff in it's design.

Thing is that Shuichi wasn't really in on that vote, and might not be very happy about it. I mean he was Kirumi's "pair" so there's a thing there. I think I'll still be fine, its just a bit uncomfortable. Trying to patch things over and it seems to be going well. We'll have to see what ends up happening. Obviously its best if we just don't go to tribal at all. I'm guessing the dynamic with Shoe screwed with the numbers. He could've ranked a lot of us low and I imagine some people did the same with him. Sayaka is alright. She asks many many questions! I don't mind that though, its a fast way to learn about someone I suppose. To be fair, you were on the biggest tribe. Plus I ranked you up high. And its only the third most popular anyways Yep! Twists certainly add onto the time, as well as longer challenges. Its not a big deal to me though.

Oh of course that makes sense. That makes it all the more complicated. But since she wouldn't have any idea Kirumi was coming back, I don't think much would be that way. - Unless her clique includes sayaka and they're seeking revenge already, then that would be a problem. And what cliques I know of don't include sayakas, but then I only know people that are in three of them including our own, so best to leave that be. But if Shoe did organise such a fallout with her clique, it could make sense that they'd rate themselves low instead of high. And if that is the case, I'm sorry for helping send those two there. I got sick of the lack of information sayaka was willing to share with me and rated her low, and then thought it was amusing that there was only one friend left and rated shoe low as well because of that, but that doesn't really mean too much.
I don't think the size of the tribes has much to do with it, I can't see any way that our tribe would want to stick together as a whole, other than we seemed unstoppable at immunity challenges.
I knew upon signing up that it would like all survivor games be a 2 month+ commitment, so yeah the length of time it takes to complete doesn't actually worry me too much, it just seems daunting if you stop to think about how many more people we have to outlast to even reach merge.

Sending me messages right before the challenge starts. How evil!
Yeah Sayaka is not in a clique with Kirumi or Shoe, I know that much. I dunno how much you're willing to exchange that kind of info right now so I'll leave it at that. I think I'll be able to pull Saya in if I need to, but any advice you might have would be appreciated!
Oh boy we're going to tribal... I'm not feeling so secure right now but I'll update you a bit as we go along.
I can't blame you for that! Nobody really knew how the results were going to end up.
True, there's a long way to go! But that's also kind of exciting, isn't it?
