We should all decline a third hand, right? So if we have to vote someone at the end of this challenge, we keep our majority (since everyone on Gemini won't have a freaking mayo).

That's what I was thinking. Since even if we have to vote out two people, we can just target two Geminis.

Definitely not smart to take a 3rd hand, yeah.

Yeah, while we need to make sure that we, as a tribe are stronger than ivory at the merge, if we lose control of the numbers on this tribe, we're done. So keeping our numbers edge, and not having votes nullified, is more important right now. Hopefully the other tribe thinks the same thing, so that we have a chance of doing well against them in the challenge too, but we can only control what we do.

Damn, there's a chance for an immunity ring.

Hopefully Dream doesn't get it, as I'm sure he'll try for it

I love how quickly this game went from teams versus teams to teams versus teams with teams versing teams within the teams XD

Well, this challenge is essentially an individual challenge. Its not a true team challenge that requires actual teamwork >.>

The only reason to take a third hand is to either A) Try to beat the other team or B) Ty and get an immunity ring. A doesn't really matter, and B only matters if we don't have a majority of the votes. So while obviously I can't stop you, it doesn't seem like it really helps in the ultimate goal.

ok i sent no. i don't want to hurt our numbers. i really don't like the idea of one or more of them getting a ring and none of us.


i'm still bitter about how that vote went, too. so i want to get rid of them any means possible... lets hope they can't pull off any of those rings.

So I screwed up guys.

I didn't have access to internet for a while, and I ended up not being able to send anything in before the first deadline. Machete locked in my hand and I can't alter it :/

At least I scored a three of a kind for our team, but again guys, I'm soooo sorry.

Can we keep this a secret between us though? I don't want Dream and the others to know

Alright, so it looks like no one got any shutthef***ups (unless Machete forgot to say if anyone did). A few people on the other team got an immunity ring though.

Should we vote out Dream in the first or second vote? I'm leaning towards voting him out in the second vote, in case someone that got an immunity ring on Ivory gives it to him.

I'm thinking we should vote Choco (or any of the other Gemini guys, doesn't matter who) in the first vote and vote Dream in the second vote. Thoughts?

FvP and dragon say that they didn't get any. Beyond that, I don't know. Likely, if any of them took any penalties, we'll find out hopefully next challenge, which one can assume translate to rings (though they can be passed around if people want).

If we want to make sure we get geminis out for sure, then yeah, not going for dream first makes good sense. I'm not sure about choco first though. We'll want to get out anyone we think is vulnerable in the first vote, which he'd be next most likely after dream to get one, but most importantly we'll be 2 players down on ivory, and we need to claw that back to do decent in the final phase of the game. If we get out both dream and choco, then we'll hurt our challenge chances. If we get out dream, then we'll conversely need to keep choco around as long as possible to help in challenges to compensate for losing dream. If we want somebody weak out first, maybe either Rad or Rob first, and then dream second?

I got a message from Dream on steam a little after the challenge ended. Here it is.

Dream and Link Chats
Sep 26 2014, 10:07 AM

Dreamwalker: hey, want to vote out Jet?
Link43130: I'm not Jet so sure.
Dreamwalker: okay
Dreamwalker: I figure it's a fair compromise. People probably think Jet is with Gemini and he probably is actually closer to us than anyone else (I think?), but I can't see us saving him with a ring and since he's basically playing solo I don't see anyone else saving him with a ring either
Dreamwalker: so this lets non-gemini kind of reduce gemini's power without risk that it would backfire on you guys due to us using an immunity ring on the right gemini person
Dreamwalker: so I think it's a good move for everyone


As for who we vote for, I agree that Dream should be second since if anyone on that team is able to get a Ring it'll be him and he'll probably burn it on the first vote. I don't have any strong opinions on the other person we vote for, so I'll just go with the flow here.

Yeah, this makes sense. We need to make sure we have at least 8 at the merge (if its going to be a merge at 16 players left). I'm thinking Rob. He's more dangerous then Rad.

Dream also sent me a message about voting for Jet... Gemini is throwing their closest ally under the bus.
Dream's logic for voting Jet doesn't make any sense though. Surely he's aware there's a second vote and that trying to find a compromise between Gemini and "non-Gemini" for the first vote doesn't change how the second vote will go.

I took it as him just trying to redirect votes honestly. Not to mention in the chat he was trying super hard to imply that they have at least one ring. If I had to guess, they're hoping we split our vote in such a way that they can outnumber us for round one and then use a ring (or threat of a ring) in Round 2. I don't buy it, but we won't know for sure until vote count comes in for this first vote.

I'd definitely say we save dream for the second vote, he's squirming so hard to save himself. Rob seems like a good choice to vote for first as well.

Is that the plan then? Vote off Rob, then Dream?

I'll vote Rob then Dream if that's the consensus. It will be interesting to see the vote totals if all of them go for Jet and we go for Rob.

Okay, I voted for Rob.

So the vote should be 8 Rob, 5 Jet (unless Dreamini changes their votes), and 1 whoever Jet voted for.
