Okay thank, I understand. I'll probably aim to do the challenge in the next couple of hours. Hmm so everybody voted for me except for one person who might have been Maylene self-voting. Can I PM people after the challenge before I make my decision about where I would like to go should I win? |

You have to make an initial decision once you complete the challenge, but you are free to PM people & change your mind on where to go up until both duelists have finished and the results are revealed. |

Basically how it'll work is that I will turn off your messages during the challenge, then when you have finished I will ask you where you would like to go and then turn them back on. You are allowed to change that decision if you wish later on before your opponent has finished, but I need to have something as soon as you are done to avoid the scenario of say an Internet failure meaning no choice is made before the next voting deadline. If Flannery does the challenge before you do tho then I will do the reveal as soon as you give me your choice. Does all that make sense? |

Welcome back Gardenia! Congratulations on your win ![]() You chose to return to the tribe that just voted you out. Do you trust that you won't be voted out instead? What is your plan to re-integrate yourself back in to the tribe? |

Sabrina, I can't believe you ~knew~ I was going to win that battle and let me stress like that without saying anything! Thanks Blue! It’s good to be back ![]() When I first learned that the vote for me was unanimous except for Maylene’s self-vote, I thought it would be best for me to go to Hoenn. However, I was told that a lot of drama had unfolded between Fantina and Crasher Wake while I was in the Arena, so I changed my mind and decided to return to Sinnoh. I have good allies there in Lucas, Candice, and to a lesser extent Maylene, plus I had made Roark feel quite bad about voting me out so I figured it wouldn't be an easy re-vote like it was when Volkner returned. As it turns out, I don’t think I’m at any risk of being voted out tonight and have actually worked my way into a very nice position. Candice and Lucas are looking to me for guidance over what the three of us should do tonight: Option a) Side with Crasher and Byron and vote off Fantina or Roark. This fivesome would be great for me because I would be the swing vote between the two solid pairs. I’m already tight with Candice/Lucas, and Byron wants to pull together who he perceives to be the outsiders (he, Crasher, and I) to be the core threesome within the five. Option Go along with Fantina’s vote for Crasher. This option will lead to much less drama, with a presumably straight-forward booting of Byron tomorrow, but it’s hard for me to trust Fantina since she had a strong hand in why I was sent to the Arena last time. Also, my first instincts about people tend to be pretty good and something about Fantina rubbed me the wrong way from the very beginning. I will also get the idol if Fantina is voted off and loses the battle, but I’m not sure that I necessarily want that target to be on me right away.Anyway I better get back to it and make a decision soon! |

Gardenia, my child. If I told you you were to win the duel, you may have grown complacent and affected your performance. I could not have that happen! The future must remain a mystery except to those who possess the power of the Sight. |

Hey! Thanks, I'm so glad to have survived that pre-merge. It sure wasn't easy!I have a three day weekend coming up and intend to do a write-up on my journey so far and my thoughts on the other players in that time, but for now I'll quickly explain my current position. I immediately flipped to Hoenn at the merge and Dawn, Volkner, Wattson, and Norman all embraced me with open arms. So far, nobody from Sinnoh knows this. I've spoken to May and Wallace about a potential flip for the three of us, but that's it. So I'm playing Sinnoh and I'm playing them pretty damn well I think. They're telling me their plans - Maylene in particular - and the fact that I voted with them tonight should allow that to continue. The perfect part about this vote was that I didn't even have to suggest to the Hoenn gang that I should continue to vote with Sinnoh and act as a double-agent. Wattson and I (a secret partnership) discussed that it would be good for both of us as it keeps me off the Sinnoh radar and I can dissuade them from targeting Wattson, and then Wattson suggested it to the group. They all thought it was a great idea! I was able to vote with Sinnoh and gain the trust of Hoenn in one foul swoop. This game format is unpredictable and difficult to control with so much relying on battle results, but for now I feel like I'm in a secure position. I have influence on the Hoenn side and a non-threatening presence on the Sinnoh side. I don't foresee my name coming up any time in the immediate future, but only Sabrina can know for sure. |

Can I just say that I am loving this post-merge so far! I am in a killer position. Let me explain tonight’s vote before I go to sleep. So the Sinnoh group think they have six people – Fantina/Roark/Maylene/May/Wallace/Gardenia – against the Hoenn three – Volkner/Dawn/Wattson – and hence want to cause a 3-3-3 tie in order to send two Hoenn’s into the Stadium (which I just realised tonight I’ve been calling the Arena the entire game :lol: ). Given that I’m actually secretly with the Hoenn group I didn’t want this to happen, especially as Wattson was one of the two targets and I’m looking out for him. Now, the way the split vote was supposed to work was that Maylene, Wallace, and May would vote for Volkner, while Fantina, Roark, and I would vote for Wattson. I simply voted for Volkner instead of Wattson and caused the 4-3-2 result. In doing so I was able to protect Wattson, send Roark into battle, and maintain my undercover status within Sinnoh. I was prepared to chalk my “mistake” up to the fact that I had barely been online and got confused, but fortuitously, May had mixed up her and my name when telling me about the plan so I have been able to point to that and, so far, there doesn’t seem to be any suspicion of foul play on my part. Hehehe. Oh, one more thing on this. I told Wallace about what I did because he’s already strongly considering flipping and I want to continue to engender his trusting of me by telling him some secrets. Moving forward, if Roark returns, I have been in discussion with May and Wallace about the three of us flipping to Hoenn to make a fivesome with Wattson and Dawn. May and Wallace think they’re convincing me why it would be a good move, when really I’ve already flipped and am trying to get them to join me! I think they’ll do it. If they see me as their third person we would have three in an alliance of five, as opposed to three against the tight threesome of Fantina, Roark, and Maylene. If Volkner returns they’ll be less inclined to do it as they’re afraid of how close Hoenn are at the moment. Anyway I have until Sunday night to work out the best course of action depending on who wins the battle. |

If it goes to plan, tonight's vote is going to be awesome. 3-2-2-1 sending Maylene and Fantina into the Arena to face each other. I don't think they see this coming at all! I'm right in the middle of the new fivesome too - both Wattson/Dawn and May/Wallace believe I'm with them until the end. |
