Heya!
This is just a little thing where I write something individually before the game starts. Because when that happens, I can not even mention like your past activities or how you did in other games or mention basically anything at all about you or your gameplay. Maybe I'll give some advice on what to do or just reminisce about the game you played in. Now remember I haven't like deeply studied the game and all the confessionals you wrote before typing this, so I'm just going off a general perspective of the really big things from my point of view. Some of the little details might be wrong but I'll try my best. So now the form letter part of this ends and the personalized part starts after this sentence. =)
Hey! I'm glad to see you come back for a real game. =) Normally I jump on my high horse and critique everybody's previous game that they played but I don't think I could that for you lol. (hey, I didn't mean that in a malicious way. ^^) Quite frankly I don't see where you went wrong in the 4 days in Zephyr. If you would have been more aggressive that probably would have made things worse. Of course I didn't like scrutinize the conversations you had in those days but maybe just 1 good conversation or making someone smile might turn tides away from you. Or actually I think you threatened somebody on Zephyr that also led to your demise, again, it's really hard to pinpoint there or learn anything from that. Either way, I think you've played some additional games since then and I bet you've learned some other Survivor techniques.
So rather than do that I'm going to give you some advice for this game. =) I think you've made some friends among the Alumni so those contacts will definitely help you. However you might be expendable to them because they have their own little clique, so you'll want to make lots of new friends wherever you are as well. It's hard to identify who the power players are, who the UTR players are, etc, but if you can do that after a few episodes it will definitely help. This *is* an All-Star game so looking at your tribemate's past history in the game they played can help you there. You'll want to keep your tribe organized as one cohesive unit - working together as one against other tribes is key in this game. Make a good effort to find another tribe though - I think the heat may be taken away from you if there is another tribe to demonize.
Watch out for some of the more experienced power players and be wary of trusting them. While you can't really trust anybody in Survivor, there are certainly varying degrees of trust and you don't want to give it to someone who doesn't give it back. I'm sure you'll do very well.
Good Luck! =)
