Greetings, my spectating friends! I hope I will not fail to entertain you!

In short, my "strategy" for this first day is to just be myself! And by myself, I mean Starfire, which means I will be very nice and open to new friends. I plan to be a floater and a neutral entity for the most part, using my friendships to keep me safe without making many deals.

So far, I have only met Zatanna. She seems like a terrific friend! We have made quite a few "jokes," and she has hinted at the fact that she is interested in working with me:
Zatanna
 
If we've already discovered one truth, what else can the two of us do together, hmm?

Wait, sorry, that sounds like something a villain would say, ignore that. Or flirting. Ignore that too.

However, I am going to let that sit for a while, because I do not want to make strong deals early on.

I have not received a message from Robin yet, but I get the impression that he is not a very social person. Zatanna and I have also discovered that Robin's true identity is Kevin Bacon!

Joke Ahead!

ohmygoshaperson! Where did you come from? How did you get here? What's your favorite color? And do you wish to be my friend?

*Rorschach leaves*

Robin has finally arrived. He is nothing special so far, but I hold him in higher regard because he was a friend before we even got here! Hopefully, he will stay a friend.

We have now discovered that Red Hood might be our Robin... If this is true, that means Red Hood has to be Kevin Bacon, too! :o

Oh, Rorschach... How long does it take for you to understand the rules of the game? He has been staring at the General Rules page for who knows how long, while he has a message from me waiting in his inbox!

Zat does not seem to like my old friend Robin very much.

Starfire
 
Robin and I have a lengthy history, but he does not seem very interested in the "small talk". He prefers to get right to the point. He does seem to know what he is doing, though!

How is it going for you?

Zatanna
 
Eh, about the same. He thought he was being clever about the challenge and I shut him down so he may be peeved at me. Also he appears paranoid about dumb things. :roll:

Starfire
 
He did tell me about that! You may have just crushed his hopes and dreams by proving his incredible theory false... be more considerate next time! Oh, really? How so? There is almost nothing to be paranoid about at this point. :P

Zatanna
 
yeah, well he's all "well what if they're gonna tribe swap us right away" which is, um, absurd?

I do not mind Robin. That may be because I do not have a strong impression on him yet, though.

America used to love beards, but when was the last time a bearded player won Survivor, HMMM????

Rorschach has finally started talking! I enjoy him. He made some references that I did not understand, and I embarrassed myself, but hopefully, I did not ruin his impression of me.

Zat and I have "officially" agreed to join forces. I am okay with that; she is most likely the person on this tribe I will be closest to. She is showing her crafty side, though...

Zatanna
 
nah let's not ally, alliances are dumb and I don't need them

(yes of COURSE we're joining forces is that a QUESTION)

As I recall it was China > FvF > Gabon > Tocantins > Samaoa > HvV, yes. But my memory might be fuzzy.

And in the category of formal proposals, not that we should necessarily be acting on it yet, but what I think may be a good play is if we each pick a person to pull into a foursome with the illusion that it's an equal footing (and hell, tell our person that we're taking them to the end, whatever), but with the two of us staying strong. Not something that needs to be determined until we hit Tribal, IMO, but just food for thought.


Obviously, she has some smarts in her. This is a good thing and a bad thing. I have a smart ally, but if I want to win the game with my strategy, Zatanna will have to be voted out at some point. I need to keep that in mind, but for now, she is a good friend!

Wonder Woman has arrived, and she is delightful! We are having a great conversation about Big Brother and our love of helping people. As her name implies, she is wonderful.

The first twenty-four hours are over.

Zatanna is my only "ally" so far. She is very intelligent, has plenty of the "sarcasm," and most importantly, is interested in joining forces with me. I predict that she will make and break many deals over the course of this game, but if she feels she has a strong bond with me, and I do not appear threatening to her, I feel she will stay loyal to me. I know I will have to "cut her loosely" (I hope that is the correct Earthling term!) eventually, but she is not threatening to me at the moment. She should have a lot of power and influence over the course of the game, so I will happily be her friend and ally for now!

Similarly, the Woman of Wonder is my favorite person personally. I talked to her before anyone else did, and I believe we have a formidable friendship based on discussion about children and Disney movies. We have not talked very much about the game, but I am okay with that for now! I see her being well-liked by all, and similar to myself socially. We will be great friends during this game if I have anything to say about it, and I would like to go far into the game with her!

Robin, my friend from the past, is very short for words. I have received one message from him that is longer than one line. He is also very straightforward, and would rather discuss the game than have the "small talk." He is at least friendly, though, and I do not dislike him. Zatanna seems to not enjoy him very much, so he may be en danger early on, but I am still going to attempt to form a friendship with him. He will have to open up more, though, to have a chance of doing well in this game.

I have received a total of two blocks of messages from Rorschach, and they have not impressed me very much yet. He still has a new, distant feeling surrounding him. He seems intelligent, but not very interested in talking. I do hope we get a chance to talk more than we have.

There is a new replacement for Black Canary, but she has not arrived yet. With the lack of activity in our tribe, this new player still has a chance to make a strong impression. I hope the heroes receive another strong competitor!

Overall, I believe I have accidentally put myself in a strong spot! It is not the worst thing in the universe, but I will have to "lay back" a little to stay under the radar. I will make it through the early part of this game by letting Zat have the power and relying on her loyalty to me. Meanwhile, I will build a stronger friendship with the Woman of Wonder, and I will attempt to befriend the rest of my tribe without being very serious. That will set me up for the rest of the game.
