In which I dream of this game.; Day Two

I know I won't be doing daily updates to the extent of this for the duration of the game, so enjoy this while you can! Mostly they'll be round-to-round updates later, though that hardly means I'll only post once a round. Have no fear on that account.

So I stayed up til 3:30am my time and was on and off the board most of that time. I guess I was too into the game because I dreamt of it last night :lol: Frodo and Gollum had both won a challenge while I was gone and were so pissed at me that I wasn't there to win too and give us all HIIs that they threw me under the bus and got me into the arena. I was so mad when I logged on. Let's hope that doesn't bode for the future.


I've talked more at length with Legolas and think he's a good 'un. He is angling for a trio of me/ him/ Arwen, which I am alright with, but with Eomer knowing I like Arwen and Legolas, he will want to be part of it. I refuse to invite him in unless he does the legwork himself, though. That's been bad in the past, and positions me as the core which allows the others the option to flip more easily.

Boromir also has asked for a 'watch your back' type deal and misinterpreted my perception of Eowyn to mean that I loved her and now he's jumped on her love train after reading one message from her. :blink: I'm going to go ahead and admit that I do not care for Boromir all that much and think he may be the first back I have to stab. We'll see how it goes, however.

Galadriel also has shown up, which gives us 100% attendance in less than 12 hours, I believe. I'm so down with that. It makes the boots more difficult but I'd rather have active difficulty than inactive weakbitch.org. Besides, I'm feeling somewhat comfortable with my relationships and just need to forge ahead with them.

I have 'watch your back' deals with Eomer, Legolas, and Boromir. I have a longterm two-person alliance with Arwen. With Eowyn, I feel there is an unspoken 'watch your back' that soon will become official.

That makes 5/7 of my teammates that I have something going on with, but I don't think I'll get caught with my hand in the cookie jar since they're all such trivial deals and none hurt the other. Even if they were to see that I had all of those deals, it still leaves Faramir and Galadriel out which means I could be watching the other five backs all at the same time :P

I did like Faramir when he first was here and Eowyn mentioned that Galadriel seems to be a good character, so this first boot could be a random one. I feel that some may target Eomer because he is a nut that needs cracking; Boromir, perhaps, since he is a bit paranoid and not fully engaging; Arwen, because she sends lengthy novels and I feel she may not have the time to send them to everyone; Galadriel, because she showed so late; Faramir, because he only showed the one time.

But then again, we have the rest of the weekend. All through tonight and then tomorrow as well, and we'll see where it takes us.

She continues to send novels, which is just adorbs. She seems very needy and leaning upon me in her game, though, which I believe is a put-on but is still a bit frustrating. I think she definitely is setting me up as the bigger threat of our duo, but at this point I hope none would see us as a tight pairing. Though I have dedicated myself fully to her, I could see us splitting down the road. I respect her, but I feel that she may be high-maintenance.

He seems, dare I say it, amateurish? I hope that doesn't offend whoever is playing him and that I don't bite it for that comment! He claims to be madly in love with me or whatever, which I guess I kinda buy but it seems odd because I thought our messages have been mundane at best. Arwen likes him so I'll tolerate him and not go after him right now, and may even have to ally with him later, but I just haven't vibed with him yet.

Love him. I've easily exchanged more messages with him than anyone else and they range from real life talks to game talk to sex talk. We have fun in our talks and seem to have similar mindsets where the game is concerned and almost have a lackadaisical approach to it. Neither of us seem too paranoid or concerned at this early juncture and I think it can work wonders for our future. I just need to get others to see his potential so I don't have to go out on limbs to protect him early on (which I would be willing to do if the situation arose).

I said yesterday that things could change dramatically and they did! She sends beautiful novels of wonderful content, despite knowing practically nothing about the series. She's beyond literate and fun to talk to, and I light up when I see a message from her in my inbox. There seems to be potential for an Elrond/ Eomer/ Eowyn thing, and I would be ecstatic to have it fall into place because I enjoy talking to both of these two immensely. Make it so!

Well, he hasn't been around since my last update and it worries me. He seemed like a sweetheart but he may just be an inactive one now. I hope he shows, but at this point it looks to be between him and Galadriel.

Well, she offered me that F3 I hoped for yesterday!! We haven't decided who will be our third but I could care less. I think the two of us could knock shit out of the park in this game, and no one suspects us. I've even told a few people I would be willing to vote her into the Arena tomorrow, so no one has a hint that she and I are so tight. I'm loving this woman more than the rest.

He still could be worthy, but he continues to send only short messages that usually involve him saying goodbye as he heads out. I dunno why, but I want to say that this is 'holic. I don't ID guess because I'm always wrong, though, and I'm certain this is no exception. Regardless, he could be an ace in the hole for me so long as he manages to stay off others' radars. He's a bit of an enigma in my plans right now, so we'll see how he pans out.
