Tribal Council 2 - Questions

[Sam]

Respond to these questions in this topic!


Votes due Sunday at midnight.


For everybody to answer:



How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?



These are individual questions asked only to specific people:


Tyler and Valerie - Several people are not completing challenges, not exploring, and not doing Parlor Games. Who are these people? Who has excuses and who doesn't?


Hector and Garrey - How does the inactivity effect tribe morale?


Matt and Eric - Who were you most surprised to see on Ovambo when you first saw the tribes? Who were you happiest to see?


Jose and Jen - The map has expanded into a bigger field of view. What do you think the landmass you are on is? Is it a continent? A peninsula? Where do you plan on travelling?


Lew and Jake - Ask yourselves a question and answer it.

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

The first week of All-Stars has ROCKED. I've strengthened some previous bonds I had with people, and made some new bonds, and all in all, it has made for a pleasant experience. I don't believe I have any enemies on Ovambo, yet. And I hope it stays that way!

Tyler and Valerie - Several people are not completing challenges, not exploring, and not doing Parlor Games. Who are these people? Who has excuses and who doesn't?

Well, based on the list of who didn't do both the Parlor Games and the second immunity challenge (I'm much too tired to go checking to see who hasn't been exploring, because truth be told, I forget to explore every day), I would say Jen, Lew, and Jake are these people. Jen and Lew have an excuse, since their internet is down. And Jake...uhh...Jake...? I don't know what is up with Jake anymore. He mysteriously vanished and hasn't been seen since, except we received a message from his boyfriend.

[Hector]

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

I think everyone shared my excitement in seeing who we were paired with. Not only are we a very *hot* tribe, but we're all cool people. I was very pleased to see that we didn't have any trouble makers on our tribe. I've made 9 friends, and no enemies.

Hector and Garrey - How does the inactivity effect tribe morale?

Well Sam, I thank it totally brings the morale down. One of the initial reasons why I loved this tribe is that we are all known to be challenges whores. When people don't show up, it starts to make us feel hopeless. Sometimes, it makes us want to try harder. At least I know I'm going to work harder on the next challenge.

My first week was totally SWEET! I love just about everything about this tribe and we all know that to like a game it's all about tribe. I'm pretty sure I made some friends but no such enemies that I know of anyway.


Matt and Eric - Who were you most surprised to see on Ovambo when you first saw the tribes? Who were you happiest to see?

I wasn't really shocked to see anyone. Oh well ok maybe Tyler, but that's a good thing because I was happiest to see him too. He's like a familiar face. I like those, they make me feel all gushy soft inside. #wink#

The first week of All Stars was GREAT. I love my tribe. We are a great group of people. I feel so lucky to be with the people I am with. <3



Tyler and Valerie - Several people are not completing challenges, not exploring, and not doing Parlor Games. Who are these people? Who has excuses and who doesn't?

I think all the inactive people have their reasons. I was *very* sick, and it ended up making me not be able to compete in the latest IC....so I think I have an excuse. Same for Lew and Jenn. They have net problems, which can't be helped. Jake though, so far...it seems like he has just given up, and I don't really understand it.....it's like he just vanished

[garrey]

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

I <3'd it! MILES better than Sidestory, in my humble opinion.

Made a ton of friends, and no enemies. I mean...how could I hate these people?

Hector and Garrey - How does the inactivity effect tribe morale?

Definitely. It forces the people who's here to try extra harder, and not everyone can handle stress like that. I know I can't.

[José]

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

The first week of All-Stars was very hectic for me. I had work almost every night which usually never happens, and I didn't have much time to socialize. It wasn't the best expericence this first week because it felt like I missed a ton of stuff. I made friends with everyone I spoke to. Everyone is great and I love this tribe. No enemies yet.

Jose and Jen - The map has expanded into a bigger field of view. What do you think the landmass you are on is? Is it a continent? A peninsula? Where do you plan on travelling?

I think the landmass we started on is an island. I think Asteria is a group of many islands and we have to sail from on to another. I plan on traveling south west.

[Matt O.]

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

The first week was pretty good. We won a challenge and I got to know some great people. I would think I made 9 friends and no enemies.


Matt and Eric - Who were you most surprised to see on Ovambo when you first saw the tribes? Who were you happiest to see?

I was probably most suprised to see Jen and Lew on my tribe, together. I didn't think they would be together if they both got in, but I'm glad because they are good players. I was happiest to see people I already knew, beacuse I know they are good players and will try their hardest for the tribe.

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies?

Talk about your bittersweet occasions! I get invited to join an all-star game even though I was the first one voted out of Paradise. That's an incredible feeling. Then I lose all my connections and have to pray that I'll be able to stay in the game. I'd say my first week has been full of ups and downs.
I love our tribe. I know that we're all kind of obliged to say that in order to stay the game but I really think we have a good crew here. I think I've made a couple of friends in the time I've been able to work with. That will change in time though, I'm sure to piss somebody off .

Lew, what kind of effect do you think your being unavailable has had on your possibilities of staying in the game?

Considering the target that was on my back when Jen and I ended up on the same tribe to begin with, I don't think a temporary setback such as this could make that target a whole lot bigger. I think I now have almost as much of a chance as I did when the game started, say about 80% of the chance I had before.

How about a quick answer for the questions the other players had?

Tyler, Jen and I have explained our reasons. Jake is MIA.

Inactivity is death for tribe morale. From what I've noticed, those tribes that communicate the most, even if it's just BS, do the best together.

Surprise is what happens when you're expecting something and get something else. I had no expectations about my tribemates and therefore wasn't surprised. I'm happy to see what a good crew we have.

I agree with the theory that we are in an island chain. Where we're going is anyone's guess.

[Jen]

How was the first week of All-Stars for you? Did you make any friends? Enemies? During the first week that I was able to be apart of was great. I had just started talking with a lot of my tribe mates and then isp issues arrive and I can't do anything about it. I do think we have a great tribe very active. I think I have made friends and no enemys right now. And I hope when we do get our ISP back that I will have the chance to get to know and talk allot more with my tribemates.

Jose and Jen - The map has expanded into a bigger field of view. What do you think the landmass you are on is? Is it a continent? A peninsula? Where do you plan on travelling? Well I think we are on an island of our own. I also think that the other tribes are on a different island. and that is were we will find them.I plan on traveling as far as I can get to.
