What are your guys' strategies for winning?

I'm not going to pretend I'm a huge Survivor fan (I've never watched the show), and I admit I joined this game only because I like Lord of the Rings. So basically I'm a LotR diehard and a Survivor newbie.

I'm slowly learning how it works but I'd like to get a bit of a jump on things so I won't be eliminated early. And I know it'd be you guys eliminating me, if that happens. But basically I want to be helpful enough to the team that I'm not eliminated early on, and hopefully make some friendships with people I wouldn't otherwise have met on the forum.

I would have made this thread in General Discussion (and I suppose perhaps I probably should have, in not-quite-hindsight), but I figure I'll post it here just to see how friendly you all are.


Haldir salutes you.

To be fair if Eomer submitted we would have won the challenge and he'd still be playing.

That's true. But perhaps he had an internet outage or a family emergency. I think he's paid enough of a price. We don't have to still beat him up over it.

SF, why are you worried about us winning? Is there a mechanic that if you win too much you get nerfed? Or is it just that you think the other teams will begin to team up against us?

Also, about my Blue Alliance thing, post your /in here if you're up for it. I think if we keep doing well, we should have little problem eliminating most other players before we begin to eliminate ourselves.

It seems you almost want us to lose, is all I'm saying. Or that you'd be relieved if we lost, because then we wouldn't seem so invincible.

Blues already lost this game
I see both of your sides, and you both are right. We don't want to appear as a super-unbeatable force, otherwise people would be scared of us (Shadowfax). But being strong doesn't necessarily make us a threat, nor is it a bad thing (Haldir).

Honestly, just keep playing the way we are. If you try to think TOO far into this game, one twist will fuck you over. Just keep taking this "day by day" and keep rocking the challenges. We lose, oh well. We win, YAY! Most people would love to be in our position, but that doesn't mean they want us out because of our success, they are just going to be motivated. As long as we, the Sapphire Slayers (of Hyrule) continue on our path, we will do wonders is we stick together as one tribe.

Hell if I would have known that we were the Sapphire Slayers of Hyrule then I would have never suggested anything different.

Anyway guys I'm gonna be increasing critical of all of you in public as time goes on, so don't be alarmed.

Fair warning is appreciated. Otherwise I might actually think you wanted me gone, which would be, shall we say, ah, unwise.

While winning is working against us to some degree there is never any good reason to intentionally lose a challenge.

You are wise beyond your years, horse. I appreciate your user title immensely, Shadowfax.

I say we just all select the most east/north tiles possible. We will probably be split east west or maybe north south.
