Flavorwise, the Yule Ball is something that only happens for one night, and the light blue doesn't seem like a merge tribe color. I don't actually think this merge is going to be final, but it's here anyway. Anyway, I have no clue what I'm doing. I'm going to have to figure that out sooner rather than later, which isn't helped by the fact that I'm going to be unavailable for most of today. EDIT: Yeah, called it kind of. The only other thing that I've changed was adding + OotP to the title, and changing the tense of the description. Edited by Madame Hooch, Jun 20 2014, 10:36:34 PM.

Also, Hagrid and I asked the tribe forum whether we could see the seeker forums now that George found it, I don't know if you missed that. |

In addition to the fact that loading a page makes it actually load like three times, I now can't click and drag on here either. Something is really weird, and I'm not going to bother trying to figure it out. |

![]() Q1: How are you settling into your new tribe? How are your connections with the players you've already interacted with? Any new players you like? Q2: Did your placement and tribe surprise you? Q3: Did the placements of any other players surprise you? Q4: Did the Yule Ball yield any information that could help you? Q5: Do you see any former allies becoming less attached to you during this tribal phase? Q6: Who is the biggest threat on your tribe? |

1: Fair enough. I have an alliance with Figg and her pet, and I'm as cordial as I can be with everyone else considering the fact that I'm the slowest PM writer ever. (Which really may not be hyperbole.) 2: Somewhat, though I guess just under the bottom half isn't bad considering that everyone that I had no contact with, I really had no contact with and therefore was really low on quite a few people's while hopefully being in the top 4/5 of the rest of them. 3: Peeves. Seriously, I'm considering doing the math to figure out what the average placement would have been for him without me putting him second to last, and that sounds like a lot of work. I want him to be voted out this EC, but with him getting first place I don't see that happening. 4: A lot less than it should have. The main things though were that Figg seems to really want to work with me for some reason, which worked out really well for this tribe, (seriously, you can't beat simultaneous alliance offers.) and that I don't think Fenrir isn't angry at me because the first thing I did with regards to him was mention the Ravenclaw alliance, when he had apparently already got confirmation about it from two other people. If I want a chance to actually win this game instead of just getting decently far, Fenrir is probably going to need to play a big part in that. 5: Possibly. I think my ties to Fenrir/Luna are safe though. The person I am absolutely most worried about what they think of me is Tonks. I still have no clue where she stands other than with Fenrir, but if it's not with Peeves then I think it would be in my best interest to F3 with her and Fenrir, with Neville being the fourth if that ends up working out. As nice as all the Gryffindors are, they are all far too attached to each other to actually think that I'd have a chance against them en masse. This is still all purely theoretical though, so I'm barely going to try to nudge things in that direction. I still will if my relationship with Neville improves, but that is only an incredibly distant possibility at this point. 6: Myself really. Not as in I'm the biggest threat overall, just the biggest threat to my future specifically. I think I'm pretty much guaranteed to be safe for this entire phase unless I screw up massively. The biggest threat overall though would probably be Figg? |

... I really don't know what I have to say about this, other than the fact that I'm going to need to reread EVERYTHING I've heard about that EC with this statement in mind and see how much it affected things. |

Wait, I'm going through this PM of Neville's excruciatingly slowly, and I just noticed that he asked to work together at the bottom of it despite the fact that he sent it as I was just finishing up my question answers. This might actually work out. For now though, I'm closest to Figg. At early merge, I'll be closest to Luna, and if I can manage to stall a Neville vote for that length of time, then I'll consider backstabbing those two. I kind of want to do a full game runthrough of this strategy now and see exactly how feasible it is. I really need to wait for the results of this TC though before even considering that. No I'm not planning on picking one of EC or TC and sticking with it. |

I changed my mind. There is an external threat on this tribe: Hagrid. I need to stay allied with Figg in order to stay allied with Luna once we get to merge, but Hagrid needs to go before then or else the Gryffindors will just be far too powerful. How am I supposed to get to him though? I'm going to try to convince Figg that we need to just dump Voldemort now, because if that happens then Neville has a decent chance of becoming just as strong of an ally to both of us that Voldemort was, and Neville actually has a chance of making it past the first vote at merge. After Voldemort is gone I should play up this alliance with Neville while also continuing to string George along. Even in that scenario, I think Draco is the next one that gets voted out, and I don't think we're going to three TC's before merge. Actually, if Peeves is voted out then I probably should start trying to throw challenges... Anyway, I've done nothing but just think for like the past two hours, and this all goes to crap immediately if I'm reading Neville wrong. So much for waiting around and seeing how things go. |

I think this exchange warrants posting in my confessional, because I can't think of a better way to put it into words.
Right now, I think I have more people who truly trust me than I do words to describe how I feel about this. What am I doing? What am I going to do? What happened to me always being a boring UTR/MOR? Is everyone just going to hate me after this is over? Do I actually have a good chance to win this? |

Well, a Myrtle vote now is slightly problematic. The complete unknowns are still around, and every single EC from here on until the end of the tribal phase is probably going to be taking out a player that could have voted with us. Well, apparently Neville likes Peeves, so it looks like I might have to work with him after all. I don't think I've tanked him yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if I was at the bottom of his list, so I definitely have a ways to go. |
