This is a space that only you can see (and spectators). This is where you will cast votes and do challenges.
You may also use this space to make threads where you can talk about the game, like a diary.
If you gain an item or advantage of some sort, it will appear here.

Hello! I'm assuming I'm not allowed to out my identity here, correct?

Utgard is home of the giants, who frequently conflict with the gods of the Aesir. The members of this tribe are... Athena, Heimdall, Loki, Odin, Thor, and Typhon You know one of these days I was hoping for a functional tribe, but this works too

I would prefer that you didn't yeah
Its not as big of a deal though so if you compared your game to how you played in past games that'd be fine

To-do list: -Make notes of what to do and what not to do (might just copy+paste old ones) -Organize confessional and lay down groundwork for how I'm going to be posting here -Work out challenge with tribe -Start PMing people

Don’t rely on allies to form connections for you Try to appear as open and honest as possible with people Don’t give somebody significantly less than they gave you Make sure that you give something that the other person can easily reply to Try to talk about the other people in the game Do your best to form connections with people even if you want them gone Start new conversation topics when old ones die out Stay confident, and never give up until you’re eliminated Take a moment to step back and think every so often
This is a copy+paste but I still do think it applies here, the bolded are ones I want to focus on especially.

How I'm going to post in my confessional: At the end of every episode (TC), I will give my thoughts on what happened and how it's good and bad for me. Along with this, I'll do my normal posting about events that occur.

Hmm that post looks familiar
Like that you're using your confessional actively!

Thank you! Talking to basically myself is easier than talking to other people.
I have two PMs, will check those out now then report back.

So my two messages were both pretty generic from Heimdall and Typhos. Typhos opened with a compliment, which is probably a good thing because they care about how other people view them and probably want to be liked, so if I like them (which I do so far) they could make a solid ally.
side note: why am I incapable of not being consistently upbeat and enthusiastic in public when anonymous

How to PM effectively (from expierience so far):
-You can respond to statements like they were questions. -Make sure your PMs have a "flow" to them -End with a question -Split conversations to increase length naturally

People are being so much more talkative here than they were in WT. It makes it easier to get an idea of how everyone thinks, but it's kind of difficult to keep up with.
Gonna keep it up though! Also there was something I wanted to post here because it was funny so I'll go find that now.

Are you implying that Loki, Odin and Thor may detonate it? Care to expand on that? Those three have...a history together. Clearly our avian overlord has a sense of humor putting them together. It's not that funny

Since scheduling for the quiz didn't work out, I will send each player the questions individually. You will have to be trusted not to google or look up the answers. Good luck!
1. What is the name of the Norse god whom gets his hand bitten off by Fenrir? 2. How many strings does a violin typically have? 3. How many moons does Mars have? 4. The first creature in Norse mythology is a frost giant named Ymir. Ymir's animal companion, Audhumla, is what kind of animal? 5. A meringue could be made using cream of tartar, sugar, and what other ingredient? 6. Who wrote "The Cask of Amontillado", a horror story about a man being sealed behind a wall of bricks? 7. How many bits are in a kilobyte? 8. What tragic Greek hero solves the riddle of the Sphinx, kills his father, and marries his mother? 9. If you get 3 strikes in a row when bowling, it is called what? 10. What is the name of Odin's spear, which never missed a target? 11. What type of animal is a silverfish? 12. What type of rock, produced from a volcano, will float in water? 13. Who will kill Loki during Ragnarok, the battle at the end of the world? 14. In poker, if you have 3 of a kind and a pair in the same hand, what is it called? 15. Machu Picchu was constructed by what civilization?

Okay. So. Tribal Council.
Ideal order is Thor > Odin > Loki > Heimdall > Typhos on this tribe. Typhos told me he solved the idol clue before I did, so I'm waiting back on details from that.
I haven't talked with Thor or Odin, but I'm getting slightly better SPV for Odin. Loki I've just started talking with. I'm on my second page of PMs with both Heimdall and Typhos, and Typhos seems really committed to being my ally. It's definitely a good thing in the short term, but it could make him a potential jury threat.

Athena, I must tell you some important news madam. Typhon wants you out of the game and he’s trying to use me to get the votes so that he can stay in the clear! How about we do one against him? ?!?! feel like this isn’t true, will need to think of a way to respond to it
