:heart: :heart: :heart:
are your pronouns she/her? i dont actually watch a ton of survivor so idk who silas is lmfao
it looks like it's a guy according to google

[Silas]

Jamal has got to go. He's on my hit list. He's a bro, but it's hard for us to relate, and he seems really threatening socially. Also he seems like he prefers to dominate discourse of stuff.
Jamie too, overall, cuz even if she is Pacman, I don't feel like we can work together as alias LMAO. If she is NOT that person, then she's gotta go after Jamal. I get stone-cold assassin vibes.

Didn't imagine first impressions would be about how people should start dropping like flies.

[Silas]

I know I'm going cray cray too early, but Jamal totally gives me SHADOW: PANAMA AUSTIN VIBES. -_- butttt, I'm playing as a guy, and I know if it were him, he would be easily tricked by the more flirty girls, so it wouldn't work out between us. but not jumping to conclusions as to who is who. he's still gotta go.

[Silas]

Oh wait, I think Jamal might be the host of a series on Yuku that I played, Aaron (Tom in Warriors 7). Forgot the name. Ugh, we don't vibe too well still, and no matter who he is, I have a feeling him-Jamie might be a pair that needs to be kept an eye on. They are like these "above others" attitudes, he even said he expected this to be a cast of "teenagers", and I feel like him and Jaime are trying to transcend a more mature vibe. I mean I'm 26, but I know how to be still a goof. Joke better be on them at the end of this.

[Silas]

Okay, to be honest, Chelsea seems to like to take the leadership, which is perfectly fine by me. If my assumptions were correct, she would like to have an alliance of her-Jaime-me-Brenda. We would need a 5th, maybe based on the chall performance tomorrow. I'm glad she hasn't brought up Jamal yet. And Chelsea is really business like, lol, that will be her downfall.

[Silas]

A little sum up so far, it's mainly my gut feelings. I've spoken to Chelsea, Brenda, Jaime and Jamal. A little interaction with Phoebe just now and some observations on Marcus/James based on the chat/tribe posts.

I'll do it like this, here are the people I believe will vibe the best with e/o: Jaime-Phoebe, Marcus-Jamal, me-Brenda and not certain about James and Chelsea yet. Chelsea says she vibed best with me, but there is something in me that makes me cautious of her. Maybe it's her trying to "flirt" with me that totally failed. But if that helps me land in a majority alliance, then it'd be worth it.

Many people believe being present the first day is a good thing, but I think the first challenge is more crucial. A lot of stuff will be more set tomorrow during/after it. Jamal not being present to attend the challenge is music to my earsss. PLZ EVERYONE ELSE, BE PRESENT. or else I'll grumpy.

[Silas]

Onto today, I do have some bad flashbacks from before after our lively tribe chat last night. Unless it's a Live Chall, I don't force myself to do all nighters every day, and I miss out the most crucial time of the day (afternoon, early night), cuz that's around 3-7AM in my TZ. That is what happened last night too, but I will have to somehow work around it, I guess. I assume that is a reason ppl may find me "boring", cuz when they are "partying" I am sleeping, lol. Screw that.

Other than that, my awareness on Jamal has risen multiple times. He is what I perceive him to be, and that is a huge threat. He is funny in a not-OTT, fake way, it feels authentic. And I know this other series on Yuku (rly need to dig out those links, lol) that he won as a super villain, not gonna allow history to repeat itself here. Plus, as I said in my app, I tend to believe hosts are stronger overall players, esps in challs, and he admitted he has hosted a lot. That itself may be the reason I will be gunning for him from the shadows.

I actually kind of like Marcus (no, not cuz of that gif out there from Gabon xD), even if we spoke for 10 seconds, he seems like a genuinely polite guy, and has a way with words that feels regal. I feel he's going to be like this type of guy I want to befriend in RL, but sometimes fall for? Lmfao. Which means he will have to go at some point, cuz I only lean towards threatening people in ORGs, and to keep my sanity. Nonetheless, I might very well substitute Marcus with Spencer in the Jamal-Marcus duo.

Besides that, Brenda and Jaime (just now) are approaching me for a separate alliances, a duos in a way. Me-Brenda can totally be babesRUS, cuz I resonate to her OTT side. Jaime, I will keep an eye on, but there is this saying "keep your friends close, your enemies closer". I feel she is a smooth killer, as I said before. Chelsea also tried to form a quick alliance. Not sure if it's these people being eager to form an alliance, but as long as they come to me, why not. I just hope they don't totally hate me in the end if I end up voting them out. You know, IRL dating, I have always preferred to choose who I like, and neglect those who like me. But in ORGs I still need those #s. I do assume this is one of the reasons many people turn to be bitter towards me if I end up at the end, cuz "they never saw it happening". Oh well to that.

Silas Today at 5:59 PM
Me too, I think that would work really well
Have you had the time to think who would you want these other 2 people to be?
chinajaime Today at 6:05 PM
Based on conversations, I would say Jamal?
I think he is someone who is usually around to talk and seems to be easy going.
What about you?

u no say.




Call me the Seer, soon to become Hitman

[Silas]

Okay, I found it, yay.
Jamal is Aaron, the host of Survivor Chronicles, and he was the villain in Survivor Offensive, a long time ago. He's not being careful enough with me and hopefully that's his downfall, but unfortunately, it seems not yet.
Jaime is Dust1330, here is quick bio of his; dustynsurvivor.fandom.com/wiki/Online_Reality_Games
Maybe he always figured out who I am, so he approached me? We shall see. IK we tend to get along, but he ain't a good ally overall, he doesn't win cuz he is a little distant and gamebotty (coming from me -_-) (still love ya <3).

If I am wrong, I shall bear all the pranking at the end of this, lol.

But, it seems like an alliance is forming, that is me-Brenda-Chels-Jaime-Jamal. You have to imagine this is not my ideal group of peeps. But, James-Marcus (and to an extent Phoebe) haven't been around to build a rapport and it might bite them in the ass. I'd rock the boat with Marcus, but not so much with James-Phoebe. Ugh. Hopefully they show up and do well @ the chall, otherwise my game might not start as I would like it toooo.

[Silas]

GUESS WHO FELL ASLEEP AROUND 2 AM WHEN THE CHALL WAS AT 4 AND JUST WOKE UP? >_<
Ughhhh, it's not so much that I didn't participate, it's just that I feel bed I let me tribemates down.
Now bout Spencer/James. Keep your pants intact, babes, I will get in Dr. Will mode here. Come at me, you'll be sent packing.

[Silas]

A few quick updates from your boy Silas.

About last night and that challengeeeeee. Around 2 AM I was waiting for the chall to start , thinking 9PM=3AM my time, then double-checked and saw it's actually 4. I decided to lay down for 1 second in my bed, which is next to my desk, to get a rest before it starts. Who would've thought (probs everyone that's not me) I'd fall asleep! UGH. Then I woke up at 5.30 being really hectic, throwing a tantrum @ my house and giving a really quick look at the board. Before I even see results, I have people going cray @ me on Discord, lmfao.

In short, Spencer and James were trying to rally the vote on me. I see where you guys are coming from, but GL with that, lol. Especially Spencer, he's such a try-hard, sit down kiddo and be schooled.



First thing he messaged me pre-chall was "It's quiet around camp, makes me feel on the outs". Should I care you weren't around when it was most crucial？I won't break a sweat for you, buddy.

To be perfectly honest, if I were my tribemates, I maybe would have voted out myself at this point, lol. After all I was kind of contemplating to do that to Jamal, oopsie. ：-X Turns out he showed up. Actually, I was thinking he might have done a prank on us and be like, uh-oh I'm just gonna watch these fools do the chall while I chill, pretending to be out （quarantine time, hello）and still be safe. Maybe he saw I wasn't making it so he joined. Anyway, he was one of the few people that apparently stood up for me （Chels-Jaime-him）, so ty for that.

Basically I had Brenda, Chels, Jaime and Jamal telling me what Spenc/James were trying to do. It seems like the vote has been shifted on Marcus, which is a little sad, but if he were to survive he would be a free agent after almost going the first round with no relationships. I like the guy, but he gotta go. And he's likeable, so he is more threatening than Spencer, who will screw himself with overplaying.

Other than that, I have come to the realization that James is a huge threat too. He seems to be good strategically, but fails @ the social aspect. If he gained some momentum he'd be someone to look out for.

I think I'd categorise my tribemates based on their skills like that at this point:

Social: Jamal, Brenda, me(?)
Strategic: Chelsea, Jaime, James
Challenges: Spencer

Phoebe is semi-active rn, but she leans more towards the social group I think. Marcus would be there too, if he was around more.

I was trying to cause some chaos yesterday, trying to not associate myself too much with Jamal when asked of the 5-person alliance, and realized everyone was loving him. I guess it'll be a battle between me & him for Mr. Popular among the girls (tribe). I have also tried to paint Spencer as this paranoid creep, trying to see what people would say about him, hoping we may shift the vote on him, but that won't be happening and I am not in a position to rock the boat rn.

Lastly, I'm happy I overslept the chall, cuz now people like Spencer-James-Phoebe will see me as unimportant and underestimate me. Plus, I will have to read more about me after the game, given I may still go home this round. xD

[Silas]

Me & Jaime (mostly me, tho) came up with a sweet idea that'd make Spencer shake in his boots (or screw my game for the upcoming rounds):

chinajaimeToday at 5:35 PM
I'm here now!
Sorry, breakfast took more than I'd have wanted.
What worries me is Marcus lack of scrambling.
SilasToday at 5:41 PM
No worries
That's what happens to me every day
Yeah, I hear you, I'm not sure it's because he is moving (not being around) or for some other reason
chinajaimeToday at 5:43 PM
Yeah.. I'm torn between him not been around because he's moving OR he won the reward challenge.
What if it was a HII for his first TC?
SilasToday at 5:44 PM
Yeah, that's not impossible, now that you put it this way.
What do you think we should do just in case?
chinajaimeToday at 5:45 PM
But I really don't want us to be like super aggressive from the get go.
SilasToday at 5:45 PM
How did he do last night in the challenge?
IDK how James/Spencer will vote
If everyone is voting Marcus, and Marcus voting somebody else, I may throw a vote @ let's say Spencer
if he had an idol it'd be 1-1 at worst
only if everyone else votes Marcus
chinajaimeToday at 5:46 PM
Yeah
SilasToday at 5:46 PM
and no one would expect me-you-chels-jamal-brenda
having an alliance too
it'd look logical
chinajaimeToday at 5:46 PM
That's a good idea.
SilasToday at 5:46 PM
i was out of the loop or smth

We'd have to coordinate this with Jamal-Chels-Brenda obvs and I need to come up with an excuse why I voted that way to Spencer. Maybe tell him Marcus was pushing for him, cuz he felt Spencer was pushing for him being on the outs? It's a possibility tbh, but not the best case scenario rn, esp if I am not 100% sure everyone is voting Marcus.

[Silas]

I am contemplating right now, would it be appropriate to rock the boat and save Marcus rn? In order to vote out James/Spencer. But he seems reluctant to do that and wants to vote me? Um, I wanted to help you here, Marcus, and you'll see it post-game. I guess you should just go. (happening rn)

[Silas]

Marcus might stay and James might be going. That's what you get for plotting against me (as Sandra would say).

[Silas]

CHELSEA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU ARE PUTTING A TARGET ON YOUR BACK FOR NEXT ROUNDS. Btw, I heard about the girls' alliance too, will be dealt with later.
