Format is interesting - but yeah, we'll see how things go - I still think it's early days, I think for some people it's still getting to know you type pleasantries (I know that's the case for me), so yeah, don't worry too much about it - there's still like 48 hours or so left lol. I guess this format does favor challenge whores - so if you can start and continue your challenge whorey streak, you'll be fine In any case, you'll be high up on my list, and I think a number of the Cullens, so yeah. I don't think even Bella has a vendetta against you - I told her that your 'hatred' of her was purely schtick, and I think she's fine with that.Carlisle/you*Jasper were a go from when I mentioned it to you early on - I think it's important that we have other options though. People are latching onto the fact that Carlisle and I are close, and we really do need other options lest we be sitting ducks. Is there anyone on your end in Forks that can perhaps assist us in that regard? How have you been getting along with everyone? I'm still finding my way around lol. |

When I saw I only had 13 PMs back after not being around yesterday I was like WHICH PIECE OF COMPLETE GARBAGE IGNORED ME but then I saw you replied in here and I was like oh I love Jasper. It also means noone ignored me. Unless I got some double PMs. Haven't actually checked yet. This system means you'll basically always be getting priority :<3.Yeah I'm still in the getting to know you stage with a lot of people. A few I haven't been able to talk to at all because they logged right off Thursday night. Emmett, Victoria and Alec stand out there. Luckily you already did work for me with Emmett. Thank you SO much for all the work you did for me with those guys by the way :<3. I did my best to do the same for you with my two girls. I hope they have opened up to you a bit. It does favor people who are good at challenges. You don't even have to be the best, just good enough. Like from what I can tell eight people will be "safe" the first round? Like I feel pretty confident in being in the top eight with this group in most challenges. Unless its like a dropdown or really anything involving words. Then I'm fucked. So bad at word searches too and such. But yeah you'll be high on my list too. Probably behind only my girls, maybe even behind only Angie since I go back and forth on how much I trust Jessica. I just don't want to be caught picking anyone else over Angie after she picked me first in that pickem and all. You're one of the only people I can really trust having my back for real in this game. I can't lose you. And yeah I've got a good chat in with Bella already. I actually like her :lol:. Though Rosalie is the Cullen I've spoken to the most right now. Yeah that threesome with Carsile seems pretty set, but its true we need as much backup as possible. I'm chatting with everyone looking for support. My closest ins on Forks are with the girls, I've got shit relationship with Charlie and Seth is something I have to actively repair after fucking Mike kinda blew up our relationship. I'm doing well enough getting along. The people who seem to be warming up to me the best are also the ones who seem to have really good social games in general though. Rosalie, Irina. They stand out. But they're sweet talkers so I'm worried that thats just how they play and I know I can't trust them because they certainly will put their original tribemates and such first. |

Lmao just checked and you actually DID send me a PM so that means someone DID ignore me. And I just remembered the merge is actually 16 so... two people. Eh whatever. One of them is Esme though it worries me she didnt get back to me. Prod her at some point for me if you're comfortable. Does she often take awhile to get back? |

Yay, I get priority service I like this - if only I got priority service when boarding flights and I dunno, lining up for movie tickets and whatnot. ;_; Jesus, I think I'm getting less PMs generally - I never really see more than 5 or 6 at one time, but I figured that I generally do say a lot less than people, so there's less incentive to PM me - and particularly because I'm not hung up on the novellas that people write lol - I don't make judgments based on length of PM, but rather content of it.Thanks for hooking me up with Angela and Jessica? I think they're pretty cool as well I think with this format, and this stage of the game, it's all about just reaching out and introducing yourself to as many people as possible, and to get them to kinda remember you lol. Because ofc we'll have our allies at the top of our list (you'll be within the top 2 or 3 of my list), but, beyond that, when I get to around 10 and 12, I'll be like...um....scraping the bottom of the barrel in a way to try and remember which person I like more than the other kinda thing. So in that respect, it's kinda about being memorable, in a good way?Rosalie is great at talking - she's a great ally to have, and yeah, I hope we do get something going with her. Bella is great once you get past the whole.....schtick that she has going on. But I think, Carlisle is kinda lost for allies atm, so keeping him with us is the best way to go lol. And you touched on it a little bit with your last paragraph - social game, and jury threats. Carlisle perhaps isn't as threatening as some of the others out there, when it comes down to jury votes and whatnot, so it's best we keep him in our pocket. I guess the end of the game (should we both be fortunate enough to get there) is a long ways away, but at the same time, I think it's a tad prudent to pay a little bit of attention to that. |

Priority service indeed. Though I actually somehow by some miracle from heaven have a fully emptied PM box right now. I never thought it possible. Something about this format just pushes me into overdrive. I logged onto 13 Pms today since I had been away for a bit but I blew through them... welll not really. But the fact that I actually got to the end of my inbox is still really a pleasant surprise to me. I have to essay PM if I'm talking to essayers. And I'm a wordy person in general anyway. But I don't judge them for replying back say... only to my core thoughts and not mirroring my length. Like Emmett does that and I think thats fine. Good even, it makes responding to him easy because I don't have as much fluff to wade through figuring out what actually needs replying to. Not true with me since I ramble on forever. Sorry about that. Yeah no problem. I tried to talk you up as much as possible, with Seth and Charlie too. But I can't pretend you didn't do a much better sales pitch with your tribe for me than I did with mien for you. :lol: Every member of your tribe has been like "oh Jasper says such good things about you, he loves you, been looking forward to meeting you". And then Bella and Emmett mentioned you wanting to work as a threesome. Which makes us have a lot of those. :lol: But thats ok because this format makes alliance's weird anyway and it sort of is just... who survives this format that matters. But yeah I hope you're getting on with Jess and Angie well. Open up to them. Itll help us both options wise after this format shakes out, and hopefully put you higher on their lists. I think I have all of Forks agreeing to put you high on their lists because I have them thinking you're a potential person to flip from Cullens to Forks completely. I dont actually expect that, but thats what I'm selling them. :lol: Which has put Seth at least completely on board with putting you high. And yeah I'm doing my best to do that memorable in a good way with everyone. Its tough, but I just gotta be as charming as I can. :lol: The only member of your family that we arent trying to work closely with is queen be Esme it seems. Which is fine because she scares me. I like her but she's intimidating. I love the rest and I think they all have potential for us. But Bella does need some digging past the shtick. We talked about how you took awhile to figure the shtick out actually. :lol: And yeah like... long game wise if we can keep Carlisle in then thats great for us. He's not a jury threat, he's not going to betray us, he's not much of a threat it any big way really. He's perfect. The only danger is... 6 people are going to leave in this book. And not many other people will put him high, I'm trying to get the Forks people to do so but I'm sure almost all of them will put all their fellow forks, then James, and that puts BOTH YOU AND Carsile behind with them. Its frusterating. I'm gonna talk to Angie a bit abut making out game more individual, and whether we should really be ranking the Forks members first when this game got really individual really fast. |

ngl, I think the reason why my sales pitch was better was because you were a major part of the reason why they kept me around lol. I think I was in the doldrums for a bit, and the fact that I was offering them with this option of you being an ally and another option for them down the track was something that they couldn't give up perhaps? I'm more wary of James now - I've heard whatever you say to him in PM, he just flicks them onto someone else, so as to cause conflict in the group. This makes me incredibly wary of him - I'm unsure of your relationship with him, but I'm just cautious of anything I'll be saying to him in future now. Carlisle mentioned to me about a fiveway of you/me/Carlisle/Angie/Jess - and I'm fine with that - I get along wel lwith Angie and Jess just as I do with you and Carlisle. as you said, this format isn't exactly conducive to alliances, but I think it's something that we should keep in mind, and perhaps we can make it work down the track, as the numbers get smaller. That, in addition to our options with Rosalie, Emmet and Bella and even Esme on the side lol. You mentioned that you'll talk to Angie about a more individual approach - that's fine, try what you can, but dont be too concerned if you can't - I honestly think we'll be fine now, to me, Alec and James and stuff are kinda expendable to me down the track, and I'm only telling you that. |

Ooooh first of all very clever of you because I never think of stuff like that and second of all glad I could help Even if I wasn't actively doing so. And yeah James is really dangerous. Like I know thats his style yet I was actually being really open with him. I suppose if I get confronted on things I said I can just say that I was telling him what he needed to hear but I told him some stuff about say how I feel threatened by Jessica that he could easily use against me and well whoops. :lol: I guess it happens. Luckily James's reputation being a shit stirrer and words twister means noone will take anything he says seriously, hopefully.Yeah its too bad we're in a format where that fivesome couldn't work for us better, but we should confirm it if only because hopefully it means Jessica and Angie will keep both you and Carlsile very high on their lists. At the very least over James, if not also over Seth and Charlie as well. I'm not sure Jessica would do the later but Angie might. She wanted to bring someone other than James back in the outcast twist and so I know she's thinking more individually than tribe based. Which is good for us, especially if we all survive this format. Plus yeah our options with the Cullens help us out too and thank you for opening that up for me.

There was some pressure in a tribal sense to have him high honestly but I couldn't put him above a lot of people so if I win the challenge tonight I COULD be caught with my pants down depending on who's left when I pick. Like if its you, Carl, or anyone from Forks that ends up being picked noone will raise an eyebrow, but if its any of the other people I kind of sneaked above him people might go uhhh what. So hopefully... not the case. |

I was so nervous about that but I knew James would be either me or Jessica. Alec will pick Riley and that will be it for two of our allies though

lol, how are things amongst Forks? I really want to pick up the remnants of the Forks alliance that Carlisle tried to set up - you/me/Angie, and really try to push that forward, along with our alliances with Like Rosalie, Emmett and Bella and whatnot - I think it would be prudent to at least try and keep our options open? |

I think Angela is on board with our threesome? Is that what you're hearing? I'm just trying to work on her a little, try and solidify something a little omre long term. Also, having a bunch of people that'll put you relatively high up isn't necessarily a bad idea either? |

Hey Jasper sorry I kinda ran last night almost not being picked had me stressed and I needed a sleep, though I probably should have had the opposite reaction. :lol: Yeah we really need to get in close with Angie. Seth and Charlie are distant from me but desperate probably after losing Jessica. :lol: Yet at the same time Jessica was our link to them so they might drift entirely. This is gonna be interesting. |

I was kinda devastated when Angie used her idol, not that I'm not glad she used it - but that meant my list couldn't be used lol. And you would've been safe from my list lol, so yeah

Unless I keep myself in the upper half of the challenge results, of which there's a good chance.
In any case, you'll be high up on my list, and I think a number of the Cullens, so yeah. I don't think even Bella has a vendetta against you - I told her that your 'hatred' of her was purely schtick, and I think she's fine with that.
