Is my thing just going to be bitch and moan about getting eliminated every round? I seem to notice a trend here although in fairness, I really think I got lucky this last round.
@mods - What was the final vote count and were there any items played?
From what I can tell, Saya convinced Shui to vote with us and he didn't admit he would vote Kim until like... 22 hours in? I sent him a pretty hateful well... more like, threatening message about how I didn't agree with his play and felt he was being foolish fighting so hard for Kim.
He claims my threat did nothing to persuade him and he was voting Kim based off who he felt deserved to stay more. I was making a big case about how hard I've been trying this game to not get eliminated despite being on the outs every tribe somehow. I really can't believe these swaps and what I've had to go through to stay in this game >.>
Anyways, I made it through and that's whats important. I'm also super happy to get away from Shui and Saya who are probably going to be getting closer now. I wouldn't shed many tears if they got eliminated.
Looking at my new tribe, I only have Leon/Yasu who I recognize but I think there are a few people who have no connections so this will be a learning experience for everyone. Thank goodness!!! No more stupid premade power couples for me to have to deal with and a large tribe to hide in. This is where I shine and I feel like I can make good progress here not being targeted for once.

Yeah for real... no wonder I'm losing. I'm not as creative as these people when it comes to the internet. I just know how to play the game socially... I'm like the person in survivor who can't swim but rocks those tribal councils.
Also with creating stuff like invisible pixels and whatnot, it makes me realize how there could be so many different rewards out there in this game that I missed but like... how the hell is someone like me suppose to find them? There are probably people here who know how to code shit that can find it for them while I'm just clicking on the despair hyperlink over and over.
My tribe is cool. I like that we have some power players but also that I have people I feel I can trust (Ibuki/Yasu/Leon). There are also some weaker players here with Dancer Girl and Uhh.... Person who types sister? I don't remember who he was.
Makoto and Akane come off as good players and people that wouldn't be easy to vote out right now. It's also nowhere even close to my responsibility to vote them off considering my position.

It's the Monokuma file! 1. New tribes?!? What's it like? Are you nervous at all, or are you on top? 2. Who's at the bottom of the tribe and should be worried? 3. When thinking of who to vote out at this stage of the game, what factors come into play? 4. Is there a player on the other tribe you don't want to see when the merge hits? 5. Who is the mole?

I should update you guys.
So we won our first challenge and I'm placed on a tribe with: Korekiyo Makoto Hiyoko Yasuhiro Ibuki Leon Akane
This is a pretty strong tribe. I already have a connection with Leon/Ibuki/Yasuhiro so I knew between those three, I could figure something out.
Known Pairings: Leon/Makoto Yasu/Hiyoko Akane/Ibuki
Technically people know I'm in a clique with Leon but I sort of state I'm close to lots of people so I'm not sure how others view me and who they think I trust the most. I believe I'm considered to be a swing vote of sorts as several different people have approached me about forming an alliance.
What's interesting is that Makoto created a majority alliance with Leon/Makoto/Mikan/Akane/Ibuki right off and eventually added Korekiyo to that although I'm not sure why. I was hoping that Korekiyo would be the easy vote if we went to TC but now we have to pick between Yasu/Hiyoko who are both people I want to work with.
Yasu even confronted me about the vote being him or Hiyoko to which I replied "I haven't heard their name." At the time, that was true but post that... Makoto stated Korekiyo is in the alliance and so the vote would probably be Hiyoko. At this point, I should probably give a power ranking of the tribe to better explain my thoughts on each player individually.
Top: Makoto - This player created the alliance so as long as it's together, he holds good power on the tribe. The issue is that everyone knows he made the alliance and everyone knows he can't stay in power forever. If we were to merge, people will jump at the first opportunity to take out someone who can so easily be labeled a threat. My issue is I'm not that threatened by Makoto because of my connection with Leon. I think this is a player who could easily have an item and I want that person to be on my side. He takes charge which is unique in the survivor world, but that will ultimately hurt him come Merge, possibly before if an item were to be played.
Ibuki - Have to give this spot to Ibuki as she is in the majority but is also wanted by the minority. I'll go into further detail later but Hiyoko offered an alliance with me/ibuki/her/Yasu and the fact that everyone seems to want Ibuki in their group is fairly telling. Having Akane on your side is helpful too as she is a great social shield. Ibuki is just a well liked player and the only real enemy I can think she might have is Shui. I find her very opinionated and isn't afraid to take out threats (Gonta) so I would say I should be careful with how far I let her go. Unlike Makoto, she isn't as obvious a target for being an endgame threat, at least not yet.
Mikan - It's hard to not put myself here when I have solid connections with everyone on the tribe.
Akane - Socially, she isn't that interesting. She gives short replies that usually cut straight to the point or topic at hand. Most of our responses were about the last challenge and how we should do it. Clearly, her priorities are challenges and she flourishes with them. A challenge threat will become a target if she wins a couple of immunities in Merge. I wouldn't be surprised to see her have an item of some sort either. I would actually be shocked to find out she didn't!
Leon - I'm not saying that Leon would be the one eliminated if the majority had to vote one of it's own out, but I do think he hows the least amount of power just because he isn't as active as he was when he first started. He will be fine and probably in a solid spot come Merge but with Hiyoko so concerned about what Leon thinks, there could be confrontation later if they don't find a common ground. It could be irrelevant if Hiyoko just gets voted out I suppose. Leon is just very MOR right now.
Yasuhiro - Ibuki, Hiyoko, Myself all like Yasu to some extent so he won't be the first vote but I worry if we lost 2 he could be in trouble. It depends on how much Makoto wants to fight for Kore. Yasu isn't an idiot and is pushing to save himself but he might be a little too paranoid. We aren't going to vote him out yet and aren't even in TC so when you are pressuring me about this vote, I get nervous for no reason.
Korekiyo - I don't know what to say about this person. He will be a goat and I want him gone but for some reason, he is apart of the majority. Is that because Makoto wants to keep his goat? Screw that... I don't want him. I also am not convinced he is an actual player with his weird sister post restriction. My theory was that two people are playing the character.
Hiyoko - As much as I would like to save this person, it's possible I can't. When I'm being told she is the vote by the majority, I can't really refute without putting myself in a bad spot. Luckily, only Makoto said he wants Hiyoko gone and claims it's everyone so until I hear that from other people, maybe there is still a chance. She was proactive enough to offer an alliance with me/ibuki and her/Yasu so it's hard to put her on the bottom but the numbers are already being set.

Leon leaving is pretty bad for me. Maybe I can get lucky and gain a benefit for losing all my clique members but this sucks as Leon legit was one of my closer allies.
I have to fight hard to keep Yasu in now if we go to tribal as I don't want to lose another friend for nothing.

This sucks.
Since we last spoke, Leon had to leave. We can't do much about medvacs, they are unfortunate and hurt the game but real life is a thing. It wasn't a complete waste and I find it amusing that Leon gave me an item instead of Makoto which means he probably trusted me more. I think I would have rather had a player that I trusted still in the game then an idol finder although, it certainly can't hurt. If it turns out to just be a clue, I might as well forget it because the odds that I figured that clue out are Chick-Fil-A Sunday Dinner.
Power structure has now changed.
This is pretty huge considering there was a solid alliance that had formed but now is hurting thanks to Leon being gone. Makoto wasn't super well liked and now that he doesn't have Leon's support, people are willing to turn on him. Ibuki doesn't see any consequences and going for Makoto and will likely side with Yasu in order to not piss anyone off.
I also know that Akane/Ibuki are power players who will take out people they see as threats. I really really don't want to be seen as a threat.
At this stage in the game, I love how people approach me as sort of helpless? I have a solid story yet still I've managed to seem innocent and in need of others support. I've finally got options!!! Frankly, it might be hard to convince people end game what I did here but I know so much of the last few tribes was me playing my heart out.
Now I've slowed down and TC is upon us!!! Ibuki is being all nice and sweet to me and Yasu was sucking up hard when he thought Makoto was voting him. Now Makoto knows he is in trouble and is appealing to me for any info I might have while Hiyoko messaged me 10 minutes into this tribal saying, "so should we lock down Makoto or Korekiyo?" These people all want me to play nice and be their friends which is annoying as shit but also means I'm in a good place so I guess I'll roll with it.
I think that Makoto has the highest chance of going home tonight. It's hard to fight for him and no one aside me seems genuinely interested in voting out Korekiyo. I don't get why people want to keep Kore around other then they just want to use him as goat. The guy doesn't come off as a great player :/

Nope, Korekiyo will be the vote unless Ibuki tells me otherwise. Makoto finally managed to talk himself into a better position with Hiyoko and Yasu so now I get my vote of Korekiyo yay!!!! Got to get hurt Ibuki's posse.
Next round we can eliminate Makoto.

I had a realization driving home and that made me change my vote.
Ibuki obviously didn't want Korekiyo to go home this round and was just entertaining everyone else but as soon as she realized she could manipulate me, she decided to push me to vote out Makoto. Makoto could probably have been a good ally for me but so is Ibuki and I need a reason to turn on her later on without her being upset.
I get the least amount of flak voting for Makoto.
Now, I can point out that Ibuki has 2 people in her clique still in the game on her tribe and that she essentially can control votes. I needed a reason to put a target on her head.
I think it also helps eliminating people to give me a greater chance of having a new clique member. If I voted off Korekiyo, I wouldn't gain a new member because Akane/Ibuki are both still in. I don't remember who Makoto's partner was but I'll take em if they are alone. Hopefully they are on the other tribe.

Well, Space was NEET, but I got bored and decided to come back to Earth. As a result of my trip, I've lost a couple Warriors of Hope. Sooooooo you know what that means, more questions! 1. I was gone for quite some time, are you going to be ultra pissed about answering questions that you may have already answered? (please say yes <3) 2. Which elimination have you been the most conflicted about thus far? Why? 3. Do you feel you are currently in danger on your tribe? Do you have a plan to fix that if you do? If not, are you worried about anyone else on your tribe flipping a vote? 4. Do you think the final merge is coming soon? What do you think you think your odds of making it are? 5. Do you have an ally or alliance that you feel very strongly about? Do you think they reciprocate your feelings or is it just a temporary thing? 6. How worried are you about items or idols? Do you have any guesses or thoughts about who might have them if you believe they exist? 7. Who do you feel is the biggest threat to win the game at the moment? 8. Did you save me any Kandy? 9. Am I the mole? 10. Are you the mole? 11. Have I asked too many questions? 12. Do you think you are more of a Brain, a Brawn, or a Beauty? Why? That's all for now. I'm hoping your responses will catch me up on anything I've missed thus far. Until next time xoxo <3

Why is no one from my tribe on at all today? Do they all have busy lives at the same time? Is my life just so boring that I can constantly check this thread?
How hard is it to post a word?

I was gone for quite some time, are you going to be ultra pissed about answering questions that you may have already answered? (please say yes <3) Probably2. Which elimination have you been the most conflicted about thus far? Why? Ohhh hmmm..... Sonia sucked but I didn't have a hand in that. Kirumi wasn't actually easy to vote off because when people tell you they want to work with you but you just keep voting them, that can feel bad. I didn't care that much Makoto left even though he could have been a partner. I have enough potentials, I don't need him.3. Do you feel you are currently in danger on your tribe? Do you have a plan to fix that if you do? If not, are you worried about anyone else on your tribe flipping a vote? Nah not really. I'm in a good spot so long as I don't piss off too many people. I need to keep pushing blame on Ibuki for problems the tribe has. If someone was wanting me to go home, it could be Yasu as he feels like I'm not his number 1. Yasu seems like the type that wants whoever is his friend to be 100% devoted to just him. Ibuki also takes out threats so if I somehow am being viewed as a threat, that would be bad.4. Do you think the final merge is coming soon? What do you think you think your odds of making it are? Meh, can't say. It would make sense for us to merge at 12 but also game is hard when things are labeled bastard. 5. Do you have an ally or alliance that you feel very strongly about? Do you think they reciprocate your feelings or is it just a temporary thing? Not anymore. I'm trying really hard to make it seem like I'm willing to work with everyone without them figuring out I'm playing the field. Leon was my closest ally so now I'm needing to figure out the backup plan.6. How worried are you about items or idols? Do you have any guesses or thoughts about who might have them if you believe they exist? No idea. I got one from Leon so thats cool... Shuichi/Akane are both strong competitors, maybe they have something.7. Who do you feel is the biggest threat to win the game at the moment? Uhhhh.... I hear rumors that Cele is really strong and Chihiro is a good player. From my tribe, Yasu could squirm his way to the end and have a solid case. Ibuki is probably in the best spot.8. Did you save me any Kandy? >.> 9. Am I the mole? <.< 10. Are you the mole? ^.^ 11. Have I asked too many questions? T-T 12. Do you think you are more of a Brain, a Brawn, or a Beauty? Why? YesThat's all for now. I'm hoping your responses will catch me up on anything I've missed thus far. Until next time xoxo <3

Hellooooooooooo~ Mona-kuma is back for another round of riveting Warriors of Hope Recruitment questions! 1. You lost how saaaaad (or as big sis Junko would say HOW WONDERFUL!!!) Do you feel that you have a good idea of how the vote is going to play out? If so, who do you expect will go home? If not, do you fear it could be you? 2. Do you value your clique much at all? Has it proven useful or a waste of your time? Do you see it being helpful if and when the merge comes? Or have you basically written it off as useless at this point? 3. What do you value more in life, Emotions or Logic? Have either of these played a part in your game thus far? 4. Are you looking long term in this game yet? Do you think you have some idea of who on the other tribe you can work with come merge? 5. What would be the craziest connection you could make at this point? Is it an option you have considered, or are you basically sure that the door will never open? 6. If recruited to the Warriors of Hope, what survivor based attribute do you think would make you an asset to our team? If possible please put it into an "Ultimate" format. For example, I am Li'l Ultimate Homeroom. That's all for now. I wish you the bear-y best of luck puhuhu~

What would be the craziest connection you could make at this point? Is it an option you have considered, or are you basically sure that the door will never open? 6. If recruited to the Warriors of Hope, what survivor based attribute do you think would make you an asset to our team? If possible please put it into an "Ultimate" format. For example, I am Li'l Ultimate Homeroom. 1.) Losing that does suck but only because going to a tribal means I could potentially go home. We are all assuming this is the last TC before merge which means that the game is about to kick into high gear. I don't think I'm going because that feud between Hiyoko/Korekiyo is a bit too strong so the vote should be between them.
2.) Not anymore. I'm happy I got an early start talking with someone I didn't know but Kyoko isn't who I wanted to be paired with. Leon was very helpful though. Once Merge hits, I don't see how it's useful at all.
3.) Logic. I dabble in emotion from times because logically... emotion is what keeps people closer to you. If I don't find a way to develop connections then they won't have much of a reason of keeping me without proving to them logically that I'm helpful. Logic is what drives me to make decisions but if I can't use emotions to assist me along the way, I won't reach FTC.
4.) Sure, I'm trying not to make it as obvious as like... Ibuki who is constantly thinking about how her moves effect the future. It's important to consider reaching FTC but I don't want to get lost writing my speech when I haven't even gotten there yet. I need to know how to adapt to the current situation. I'll probably try to latch onto Chihiro from the other tribe.
5.) Ehh... Shuichi? I think enough people know that we have both been on opposite side of votes but also, I'm probably recognized as a "nice" player and someone who would be willing to work with anyone. I think my downfall will be someone calling me out for playing the field and everyone getting worried about that.
6.) Ultimate Survivor... yeah not like the title dictates, but more so I've been in lots of risky situations and tribal councils but still somehow, I survive. I think this is going to play a major part in my FTC story if I can reach there.

I'm actually a little nervous but only because people are being brief with me. I don't see a valid reason for me to be blindsided here though.
