Also, I'm gonna get on my soapbox here for a minute: fuck the way social game works in these games.
Yes, I absolutely do not have the time or energy to carry on constant conversations with twelve people, all of whom are pretending to be slightly different people to avoid being identified. I refuse to apologize for this.
At this point I've met everyone in this game, I know what they're about. I want to talk about the game. I want to talk about things that matter here, I don't have the energy to trade fluff about absolute nonsense. If it comes up? Great, sure, okay, no problem there. But I only have the spoons for so much, and I can't pretend otherwise much longer.

CONGRATS ON THE SUCCESSFUL IDOL PLAY, ELORITU!
CAN YOU WALK US THROUGH YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS FOR CHOOSING TO IDOL P&D AND FOR CHOOSING LOKI AS YOUR TARGET?

Why Did Eloritu Play An Idol? An Explanation, by Eloritu
1) Eloritu did not have power. Eloritu likes to have power, and Eloritu does not like to be talked down to. It was very clear that Poppy, Loki and Viy all got together and discussed, without Eloritu, and decided it was Phobos and Deimos' time to go. Inherently, I truly do not care if they go home. However, I don't like not being consulted. Especially when Loki and Poppy both talk big game about wanting to work with me, trusting me, etc. Doing that, and then ALSO using me as the decoy vote? It's not a cute look. I don't like it, I don't want it.
2) I know that there is at least one more round in these tribes. How? Two simple reasons: a) Poppy still has two vote nullification arrows. Assuming minimum usage, they would expire next round, which would also be an excellent time for merge ii) The divine intervention that Athena et al had to submit was submitted ages ago and hadn't come up yet. It would be very cruel to make them make a choice for a post-merge Intervention pre-merge, as they would surely make different choices otherwise. ergo, one more round in these tribes.
3) If we stay in these tribes, and lose again, AND Phobos and Deimos are gone, the vote is likely between me and Hades. That's bad. Don't like it. However, if I disrupt the flow and bounce someone else out, Phobos and Deimos owe me their life, I have two extra votes, and it's a whole new ballgame let's go!!! honestly, even if I get voted out for making a move that's SO much better than getting voted out for not making a move.
4) It's the principle of the thing. Every vote so far has been "let's vote out the least chatty person" and fUCK that, my number's gonna come up on that list soon because I am not around 24/7 nor do I have the spoons for constant chat, so let's start actually playing, shall we?
5) chaos and it seemed fun
I hope the spectators are finally entertained! Please ask additional questions, I'm actually having fun now

In other news, I am probably gonna vote for Hermes in this Intervention. He is someone who everybody loves but who I have not vibed with at all, so it might be good to try and snipe him if I can.

DO YOU HAVE A PLAN FOR IF YOU ATTEND TRIBAL AGAIN?
IF YOU COULD MAKE A MERGE ALLIANCE OF ANY COMBINATION OF PLAYERS IN THE GAME STILL ALIVE, WHO WOULD YOU CHOOSE?

YEAH, DON'T GO TO TRIBAL
Really, if we go again on this tribe, I dunno. I don't want to wave my extra votes around as "hey don't fuck with me," but if I had to I would. I would......probably lean towards voting out Viy? That's who P/D wants, it keeps Poppy on my side for now and Viy is probably the best-connected person who wants to murder me on this tribe, so...yeah, that's probably what I'd push for if I had to.'
My ideal merge alliance would be me, Jael, P/D...Athena? Poppy? And then I dunno the sixth. But my goal for that would be to have people around who are bigger targets than me (see: Jael, Poppy) and one or two people I think wouldn't do much to overthrow me (P/D) and that I could beat at the end. Gods, imagine planning for endgame! Don't know her.

at least I feel justified in idoling last round because if I hadn't I would 100% be going home here, no questions asked

Poppy holds a lot of power here because she still has an arrow to negate a vote, so if she doesn't like the breakdown she could force a 2-2 tie
I also have two extra votes I could use to try and one-up that nonsense, but doing so would probably burn that bridge permanently
And gods only know how many vote steals there are, presumably P/D doesn't have one but Viy might.

I think this is 70% Viy goes home and everyone is real sad about it, 20% Eloritu is being lied to and goes home, 5% P/D go home because Hades/Poppy/Viy team up and 5% Chaos Option where items come into play and send everything weird.

Basically here is what's going on: P/D are in my pocket but want either Poppy or Viy out, preferrably Viy Hades and Poppy are together and don't want to vote each other out. My guess is that they probably would prefer to vote out P/D but I'm shielding them and they don't want to go through me to do it And Viy is on this tribe grasping at straws of, like, voting Poppy out but I don't think there are bites for that at this stage. I do want Poppy out eventually but not now.

They're both also telling me how sad they are to vote and I'm having to pretend I care when in reality these people just tried to eliminate me so I'm not feeling very merciful. we have no choice but to stan |
