I'm not quite as confident about this swap as my last message in thread 5 would have you believe. I'd woken up at 6am, grabbed my phone to see results, quickly wrote that without thinking and went back to sleep again.
Yes, I'm in two majorities on this tribe, but they are obvious majorities and that could be a problem. Gundham has definitely realised what the situation means for him - he said in his message to me that the swap was particularly good for Leon and I - and if Chihiro realises the same thing, they might see their best chance as teaming up with Chiaki and taking out both Leon and I rather than teaming up with Leon and I and having to hope we'd take their side in a second TC.
I think Chiaki might have been Chihiro's Clique member too? I can't verify it because the board is gone, but that could be a huge problem if true...

Sorry I’m late to the spec party here, the mailman came and I absolutely HAD to chase him around for the past couple weeks. How would you summarize your current game so I, the goodest boy, should root for you?

Didja miss me?  The warriors of hope have suffered a loss today, apparently one of us forgot a juice box and as a result, they had to take a leave of absence to go find it and take their sadness out on the dumb adults (that are totally gonna die). As a result a spot has opened up!!! Soooooo you know what that means!!! More interview questions!  1. You recently rated your peers in terms of popularity. Do you feel the results match what you were thinking? Or were there some genuine surprises? 2. Did your personal placement surprise you? If so, were you pleasantly surprised and do you feel this paints a target on you? If not, are you disappointed and feeling like people underestimate you? 3. How do you feel your talent has been personified in your game? (aka if you were Junko, how do you believe that "Ultimate Fashionista" has played into your game) 4. If you could swap one member of your tribe for a member of another tribe, which two people would you swap and why? 5. Do you think you have what it takes to survive a trial if you lose this challenge? If so, then who do you think is going? If not, then what do you plan to do to try and increase your odds? 6. What title would you give yourself if you could be a self proclaimed ultimate? I'll answer this one, I believe I would be the Ultimate Stranger Things Fan. ^_^ Your turn. As far as more questions, unfortunately there will be a delay as I deliberate the answers with my other interviewers. Plus I have some... "special plans" to go cook up.  Soooo while I'm doing that, you may have a bit of a lapse between now and my next questions. Try not to die in the interim. That would fill me with lots of despair.  |

Sorry I’m late to the spec party here, the mailman came and I absolutely HAD to chase him around for the past couple weeks. How would you summarize your current game so I, the goodest boy, should root for you? Greetings Doggo  Welcome to the party!
My game thus far has been remarkably uneventful because my tribe keeps winning challenges. I'm one of six people in this game to have never attended Tribal - the others being Leon, Gonta, Sayaka, Korekiyo and Teruteru - and I fully intend to stay on that list. I really enjoy the strategic aspect of Survivor, but I always overplay too much and I've never made the merge before - this is the game I want to achieve at least that in, if not winning the entire thing.
The whole not going to tribals thing has changed my outlook on the game a little. I usually come into these with the mindset of 'I need to find a majority, I need to make moves that get rid of stronger opponents and align weaker opponents with me' - but in this game, I've had far more time to get to know people without being thrown into the frenzied mess that my TCs usually become. I'm starting to realise how this might be helpful - pitching people against you by dividing your tribe is not as good as keeping everyone half-onside, even if it gives you that extra layer of safety in a majority, because you get far more information if you stay on good terms with everyone.
I don't doubt that I'll do something dumb at some point when I start going to tribals and will make myself a huge target, but for now I want to be the good guy. I'm helping my tribe and winning immunities - that's what's important to me right now. I don't want to think too much about what will happen if we go to Tribal unless we do end up going to Tribal, because I don't want to break out of this tranquility.

What title would you give yourself if you could be a self proclaimed ultimate? I'll answer this one, I believe I would be the Ultimate Stranger Things Fan. ^_^ Your turn. 1. I think they more or less matched my thoughts. I'm surprised Chihiro is as high up as he is, but that might be because when I was with him all I had to compare him to were Leon and Ibuki, who were both incredible. Sayaka being in the last group is weird, but she had a long period of inactivity so that probably accounts for it - Teruteru and Korekiyo are the biggest surprises to me because they were solid talkers, but I think maybe other tribes rated them lower because they were replacements.
2. I'm glad that I'm in the top half because it makes me feel a bit better about my PMing - it's been slow with long messages, which isn't a style mafiascum players usually appreciate I think, so it's nice to know it's not made people dislike me. I'm even more glad that I'm not in the top quarter, because the competition is going to be cutthroat on that tribe if they head to a tribal. This one probably will be too, but I'm in with 1 person from my original tribe, 1 person from my second tribe, and 1 person who's been with me all the way through - I should theoretically have the advantage here.
3. Can't get more lucky than never going to tribal! Oh wait, you can, you could never go to tribal and win two advantages. The luck is going strong right now and hopefully will continue 
4. I'd swap Chiaki for someone like Hiyoko, someone nobody on our tribe had been in contact with before and who would be an easier first boot. The fact that Chihiro and Chiaki are in a Clique together is very worrying to me because I really don't want Gundham or Leon to go home, and at the same time I want the vote to be 4-1 if it does come to tribal so we don't make ourselves any enemies.
5. Yes, I believe I do, and if I get my way... probably Chihiro, weirdly. Chiaki seems more friendly right off the bat and I wonder if she'd be willing to throw Chihiro under the bus, since she seems like the obvious target otherwise. I have no idea whether that will come to be, though, it probably depends on whether Leon is willing to kill Chihiro over Chiaki. I believe Gundham will go along with what we do but I'm not 100% sure on that.
6. I'd love to be the Ultimate Idol Hunter but I don't think that quite works given that I didn't manage to figure out any of the idol clues. Ultimate Lucky Student probably works pretty well for me right now though.

So... I think this vote is going to go 4-1 against Chiaki, but I know Chiaki is targeting me. That's entirely my fault, I dropped my PMing frequency to her by way too much and that's an obvious tell that I had no intention of keeping her around. The biggest worry was Chihiro having been in a Clique with Chiaki, but she (sorry, I've slipped into using she for Chihiro to avoid spoilers at the start and now it's habit) says that Chiaki has been relatively inactive in the Clique and she wouldn't mind it becoming a 1-on-1 with Sayaka anyway - it would make it more comfortable to talk there.
I believe the three of them when they say they're voting Chiaki. If they're lying to me, they're doing an incredible job. In any case, at this point I don't think going for anything else is a good plan - shaking things up will more than likely backfire on me.
