So...I'm surprised...everyone on the Jaburu tribe seems to have checked in on Day 1. I haven't done a TON of these, but it seems like there's usually 1 or 2 complete no-shows in the first day or two. And, surprisingly, every seems pleasant...there's nobody that is leaping out as "Hey, this person is going to get on my last nerve repeatedly."

Which may mean I'm that "last nerve" person for others. :)

But here's the rundown...

  • Ryan and Daniel: Haven't heard much from them. Daniel seems very basic in his approach ("I like the color yellow"and "Let's win") while I think I've just received one note from Ryan. It's early, though, and both seem nice enough.
  • Christy and Janet: More chatty than R&D, and we've had some nice exchanges...but nothing that seems to have come close to traipsing along the edge of "game talk." But, I think I'd be willing to work with them at this point...especially since Joanna apparently has enjoyed their time chatting (which I heard from Rob).
  • Rob: So, I've chatted with him the most, I think...and we pretty much agreed (without saying the word "Alliance") that there seemed to be an immediate kindred approach that clicked for us both. Some comparing of notes was done, and he's at the top of my trust scale at the moment.
  • Joanna: Pretty much right up there with Rob...but maybe just a slight step behind him. I did come out to her and express my concern that I might be an early target because Jenna won Amazon before, and she shot this down as absurd and that anyone who took this approach wasn't playing the game well. Trying to continue to warm her up to me, although Rob told me she felt positive energy from me...so it may just be a matter of formalizing something a bit more. Not going to rush it, as we seem on a positive trajectory.
  • Roger: Wow...Roger. Right out of the gate, he invited me to a candlelit dinner and started referring to me as Mrs Sexton. It's mostly been playful banter, but I'm seeing where I can steer this...Roger is just a big question mark for me. But definitely behind Rob and Joanna in terms of where I place my initial trust.
Rob, notably, does seem to be at the center of all this. He's formed a good connection with me and Joanna. He's gotten Joanna to admit she also feels good about Christy and Janet. And he told me Roger asked him if anyone has been talking game yet (Rob said "no"). So...Rob has the potential to puppetmaster a lot of things. I want to trust him, but I also see him being a huge threat post-merge...so something to think about early on.

Thanks for the thorough posts! :D

Wondering if you'll also delve into Video Confessionals at some point, perhaps?

Probably not, as I actually hate how I look on camera. But we'll see. I'm better expressing myself in text than out loud. But that's just a knee-jerk reaction at 7:42am and I haven't taken a shower yet and feel icky.
