OKay it's taken me 25 minutes just to read the host blog so far :lol: I will struggle on through confessionals for an hour and come to some sort of opinion. I've been busy making Gategod's avatars so you're welcome :bz :lol:

An hour? That's ambitious, unless you only have to catch up on about 4 hours of posts! alol, Heimdall gave away his SG within like 10 minutes? Maybe that will be "that tribe" that seems to spill them immediately rather than being more coy about them. That group is probably going to rush out and try to trade group IDs asap though. Since they can't get last stand anyway, they may as well try to make something of their group before it's too late.

I don't even know all the twists yet or the formats. I only got to the board a few days ago and was busy getting a new job. :lol: I can't sit at the computer much longer so I'll have to catch up in bits and pieces.

I'm basically getting my thoughts out and then checking who they are.

Asteroid M thoughts:

Azazel:

wtf?? Lay off the caffeinated beverages son. alol at that message from Susan Storm and then they ended up on different tribes? :lol:

OKay so this is Gategod? :lol: I haven't seen him play before I don't think. He's gonna burst something if he keeps this up. He knows people sleep right?

Clint Barton:

Holy fuck at these confessionals. So far the first two people have confessionalled more than I think I did in the whole last game I played. There's 49 other players out there and they waste that much time talking to us? I used to be that person. No longer am. I don't know gerbil_george but he seems like a pretty cluey player. I'm liking him a lot. Unlike Azazel he has some idea that it's not a sprint but a marathon. Still, he's put in a lot of work so far so I have to wish him well for that alone. I will try to keep my eye on him.

Hank McCoy:

No real insight into his strategy but so early in the game I think that's probably a good sign in a confessional. The game is heavy in round one without constructing elaborate plans and spending hours writing about him. Strikes me as a more fluid player but his X-Men together strategy bores me a bit. I'm sure we'll see something more interesting develop from Cards.

Ivan Vanko:

He made me giggle. I love that he did almost what I did. Come in and go 50 people?? Fuck this. Then sit and wait and take the lazy route. I was tempted to pop by at the merge and just meet like 20 people and pretend it was a new game. *checks* OMG it's Level Banks! he's gonna be fun. He knows when to hold em and when to fold em. Now is definitely time to hold them.

Justin Hammer:

Opening statement:

50 people? Are you kidding? *quit*

:lol: That was my first reaction too so I auto-like this guy. He's soldiering on though. Not super familiar with orthinomax but damn this seems like an active tribe so far. I'm kinda rooting for them all atm.

Odin:

As I say that. ....... xo Odin

One who has given us nothing. I was almost relieved.

Charles Xavier:

OKay this is my buddy Parsons' hero. So I'm kinda rooting for this character by proxy without even knowing who is playing or if he's any good. He's planning a UTRP game. Not an easy one to master and I would recommend the MORP as a more winnable option. But we'll see. Oh he's a fantastic Charles Xavier - I'm liking his confesh a lot. *goes to check* Oh FUCK off Daz!!! No way am I rooting for you again. I'm getting way too predictable.

Raven:

Okay this bitch had better be good. I have wanted to play Mystique in a game for a very long time. Ugh! No confessional. If she's inactive I will die. That is too great a character to waste so at least log in and be amazing bitch. *checks* O it's Andr913. Nice choice. He'll be a good Mystique. I feel assured. Just log in and win people over and I'll check your confesh again in a few days. :P And you better be there bitch!

Scott Summers:

I hate this character. I will try to keep an open mind as I read his thoughts.

"My strategy for now is to be pretty casual about it and slow paced so I don't burn myself out by Saturday"

Good thinking Scott.

alol

"I'm voting out Nick Fury first."

If you make me like this douche of a character I will never forgive you - whomever you are. *checks* KMKinCB, hmmm interesting. I wish him luck.

Counter Earth thoughts:

Benjamin Grimm:

He loves his character and wants to do him justice. That's nice to see. he's having fun even though he's pushed for time and overwhelmed by all the activity. (*we all are babe). He's kinda adorable and making me want to root for him with all his positivity. *checks* OMG it's Taterman. Love you already babe. glsm.

Bobby Drake:

ewww, I don't like this character. Let's see if this guy can change my mind. Seemed to have a boring plan of X-Men together but now seems to have a decent strategy update so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Unlikely he's gonna be a favourite of mine though. notes: dunno notre

Heimdall:

...

Johann Schmit:

Another one who seems very fond of Loki. Johann seems to be working pretty well and not hated which is a good spot to be in. He's not making me dive in and wanna love him just yet but he seems to be doing all the right things. Ahhh Eyka. He'll be fantastic.

Loki:

The person they all seem to be smitten with. Let's see what there is to love. his confessional is not giving me a lot and it seems his early plans didn't work out and now he's spat it? Doesn't seem like my kinda player. I hope he picks up cos he seems to be really well liked in his tribe. FallenTorch - ahhh. I don't think we've played together before. Be interesting to see if I end up loving him.

Reed Richards:

..... Makes my life easy.

Susan Storm:

She seems to have impressed a few people and then not acted as she said she was gonna? idk. Her PMs seem impressive and it makes me hope she's not overplaying at this delicate juncture. mistresstara - hmm... I can't remember which game I remember her from. Look forward to seeing her in this. and this:

"Because I rather spend my time talking with who are important atm :<3 "

Smart girl. Hosts aren't gonna vote you out so go be where you need to be. Points from me. Talking yourself up in your confessional on day one may make you look good to the hosts, but it aint worth shit if you haven't wooed all the right people.

Vincent Von Doom:

likes Jean Gray and Bruce Banner - who aren't on his tribe :( The this:

"I want to forge alliances right away"

Ding Ding Ding Ding

wtf are you thinking??? There's 50 people in this game and plenty of places to hide until at least F30 or so. Why make yourself a target and make your job hard? idk you Tracy but I hope this works out for you and that you don't have a breakdown trying to juggle it all.

Yuriko Oyama:

"I guess I'm being sort of a lazy bitch atm. Kind of just replying to people whi send me shit and maybe pming a few others here and there. "

This is exactly what I would have started out like. Makes sense to me. Keep us in the loop but keep it simple. We're not that important right now. Just chill girl <3 *checks* RDN!! OMG I love you please win.

Try to get the names from people by being like "oh man!! I trust you so much and my group is actually really close to getting the idols!!! One piece of info we don't have is the name of your group!! Please help!!" Should work.

ok, that made me laugh. I actually can't wait to see reactions from certain people if they receive something like that.

How completely naive. Then again, I don't think he was around too much this night when people were going hella to try to figure them out. In fairness, this was more hardcore than other games I've seen when people are totally out to figure them out like immediately.

Just got through these confessionals. This tribe is a bit more complex than I originally thought. There seems to have been a kinda alliance between six of them before the tribe pick thing. Idk, it consists of 1- Azazel, Clint, Odin, Erik, Raven, Justin. But there are some of them that seem to love this group (Azazel, Justin) and others that barely even mentioned it (Raven, Odin). It is interesting though b/c Hank, X, Scott seem pretty active and well liked, they just might be left out a little here. Although many people mention groups with them so who really knows. There doesn't seem to be a group of X-men that will dominate this tribes, despite it seeming like an easy group to get together.

Ivan will probably end up going first but McCoy has targeted Justin b/c he sucks and he has an idol. Justin has responding by targeting him, and he may have back up? Although whatever Justin says I take with a grain of salt b/c they could be building him up so he feels safe and doesn't play the idol. Either way if he gets his way they would blindside Hank which would just be crazy for this early. I think they will all eventually boot Ivan though, he seems to pop up in all confessionals as the "easy first boot"

The most interesting people on this tribe are easily Azazel and Hank. Azazel has an eerie amount of cockiness that I'm trying to figure out where it is coming from. Most people play cocky up sometimes, but this guy legit thinks he is untouchable. It actually makes for a fun confessional b/c when he ever gets voted out it would be a blow to his psyche. But he is doing well. Hank is overplaying a bit here but he kinda needs to. I don't think he realizes about that alliance of six thing, but it might not be secure or what not. I like him being aggressive a bit though here. Def not taking a back seat to the action. I hate idols to, get rid of that shit. [/align]

I said last night that I would expect them to be claimed by about noon today. I don't even know how to describe this cast. It's not like once someone hears something, half the tribe will know in 15 minutes. It's more like once someone hears something, the rest of the game will know about it within an hour. For all the complaining about people blabbing shit too much, like 2/3 of the cast can be accused of that.

:lol: @ Doom telling "only his allies" because they obviously wouldn't spread it around and they immediately get it spread through the other tribes. I'm surprised at Parker actually revealing all the groups though I guess they'd probably harass him for the list anyway, so w/e.

Also, who the hell asked if every group that guessed them would get idols or something?

Emma Frost's pre-vote :<3 I hope they do blindside Vincent Von Doom. He really has been horrible. I told that person playing him to not ruin him, but wow have they. I also gave them advice on how NOT to play. Because everything they did in JayJayBlue's game, they did here again. After I said it's stupid and no one would ever like how they operate. Not just in their confessional here. But my entire FTC speech was about them using this :) stupid shit. And creating alliances and then booting people out of them without any fucking caution.

It's sloppy, it's ridiculous and no one trusts him. The worst part though is the hubris. Not having an ounce of self-awareness that they are doing everything wrong. When it's the same formula as last game. Everything I nitpicked and said they should not do, have been done ten fold.

They won JayJayBlue's game, but I did the Bz FTC action against Allie and for Tracy, lul Because even with all her major flaws, she had people loyal to her. But her deliver is awful and like she said with this cast, it's going to be harder. And it is. People who aren't noobs do not appreciate her gameplay and they never will.

So a blindside would be so delicious. Praying for that, not gonna lie.
