[align=center]Welcome to your Journal. In here you will be able to write your thoughts on the game, your suspicions on who the Mole is, what you think of your fellow players. Let me remind you though, this is not a confessional in the sense that you may not do thing such as ID guesses or post anything that could actually reveal your ID. The Lurkers are watching...[/align]

Mr. Wadsworth I do not see the quiz. Is this natural?

So if I am correct that this journal functions as a confessional, but one that the lurkers may be able to read?

Pretty much, yeah. If you want to say something you DON'T want the lurkers to see yet, use the Conservatory instead.

NINA'S JOURNAL - ROUND 2

Alright I believe I should take the time to resume my thoughts, feelings and plans for the upcoming round.

To begin this game is utterly exciting for me. I have just briefly seen the show 'The Mole', and as such I am coming into this blindly. Of course it seems a few of my fellow competitors are also new to this format.

To begin, I have no idea what I am doing. I immediately took the time to ask the other player's advice on what to do in this game while doing my own research. Here is what I learn so far... Yes I imagine a few of you will laugh at my ignorance, but for me these discoveries are ground brreaking.

First the goal of the game is to discover who the 'Mole' is while avoiding placing last on the quizzes. With that I should carefully answer the quiz in a way that would likely give me the most points. This is likely the best strategy in the first few rounds. There is too many options for who the 'Mole' may be and focusing on a single player is likely to result in a failure. I... I made that mistake last quiz when I put all my eggs into the Scarlet basket. The host gave a warning that someone failed the quiz... I feel awfully suspicious that it may have been me. I have to review my answers sometime tonight just to make sure.

This advice also comes from Scarlet who brag about how she spread her answers across and only... 'Stupid'... Players would do otherwise. A harsh taunt to the idiot, but a valuable lesson for me.

Second trading information seems to be a key in this game. Already the other players are asking for my opinions on the competition. The goal here, I believe, is to deceive the others. I must not let them know what my true attentions are. I must also try to gather as much information as I can. With that information I should do my best to cross-reference between the players so that I may see what is coming up as a bluff, and what seems to be a popular theory.

That is the current strategies that I have learn so far along with what I wrote in the individual note pages of each competitors. I took the time to write my opinions of my fellow contestants for easy reference. Bookkeeping is a valuable skill after all.

Right now I am fighting an uphill battle. I am still discovering new tricks to this game, but I would be arrogant to say I understood the format. I truly only know the basic layer of the strategies this game can have. I hope I can, with time, learn from the veterans at a quick enough pace.

As for the social aspect of the game... It's mediocre at best. Scarlet, Mustard and Brunette are by far the only players truly taking the effort to answer my messages with quality. Plum, White, Rose and Green do their best to answer. Plum at least tries but he's extremely wishy-washy. White is plain as her color, but she seems nice. Rose is obnoxious, and ignores everything you say. Lastly Green gave me some advice then vanish.

Oh there is also a player known as Gray but he's sorta not participating.

As it stands I feel I have a long road ahead. I hope to do my best, but my goal here is to win after all.

Learn. Adapt. Survive.

I need to remember those words.[/align]

You don't have to, but you might still want to take it anyway, just for the records.

Mrs. Peacock we do need you to take the quiz.

The records of the Quiz are the charts we release at the end of the game, how well people did on the quiz, who people answered for who the mole is, who could have potentially gone home if they did not have an Exemption...all those fun things :)

NINA'S JOURNAL - ROUND 2

I had little time for this game, and it is such a shame as the whole experience is new and exciting to me. As it stands I am thankful I was given the exemption this round, as I am so far behind in my notes. Luckily it seems being a little chirpy bird has at least given me a bit of time in this game to organize myself.

Overall it's very tough to say who the mole is Mr. Wadsworth. I look at the players, and I need to question what have they done. Scarlet has been providing hints and advice across the entire game. Extremely helpful in hunting down what the Mole should be. I don't see why a Mole would throw their game away like that so... I think I can write her off. She has questionable challenge records, but I'm not ready to jump on her just yet.

White seems a little more suspicious. She's doing an excellent job flying under the radar, not being helpful, and yet avoiding attention. I feel like she may be a suspect. I don't trust her at least. Her challenge record has been awful to this date.

Green is a bit similar to white, except he's a male variation. Also has this weird feud with Rose. I don't think Rose is the mole. Actually maybe she is. She just seems TOO obvious, but that can be a strategy right?

Brunette I suppose could maybe be the Mole? I just find him too helpful in challenges to end up being one. I doubt it.

Plum and Gray, I hope, aren't the Mole. Their inactivity is just too much on a hindrance in my opinion. I think as Rose mention... If they were the Mole it be... Disappointing.[/align]
