Ep. 2 -Ā āI'd like to speak with the managerā - Maxyne
cranjes
lol cool so iām in a majority alliance without having to lift a finger? fuckin love that. the challenge is a shit ton of greek letters and i cant like be literate in english so i volunteered to sit out. i have enough charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent to get through if we lose.
Gregg
Well, tribal went according to what was said and honestly that was nice. Know i hope we can win immunity because dont want to go to tribal again. Im talking to people but not im not like fitting in with people it seems. I might be an outsider. So hoping i can live long enough to survive and live for a swap time.
Elle
Dusty started an alliance chat with myself, Fae, Erick, Cranjes, and Van which I agree with. I really like Van and Fae, but I do not necessarily trust Cranjes and Erick. However, it is good that we have a majority alliance at this stage in the game. I want to be able to protect Maxyne, but I am not sure what the group will decide. For now, I should be content with not imposing my will on votes and being a follower. It will serve me well in the long run.Ā
Elle
After a drunk night, I can say for sure that I am well-established in this tribe. I think Sasha and Frank are in the most danger. Cranjes did not even know Frank existed until tonight, so it seems like they could be the easy vote this time around. I would not be mad at it at all. I want to keep Maxyne safe, after all, since they are someone who I feel I have a deep connection with. The duolingo challenge could prove troublesome, but I am hoping that the tribe pulls through together in order to negate the disadvantages we received.Ā Ā
Tristin
Ok so we lost the challenge and we just have to recover and win this one!!! The challenge is duolingo and I-. I hate. The language is Greek. I wish that it was a language that I knew like Arabic or English but rip. Lucking I joined a Greek letter Fraternity so the alphabet is easy for me but everything else... whew child.Ā
Eliza
Greek is so fucked, I know how to say xylophone but not hi????
Franco
I miss Susan. She was fun... Even if i did help orchestrate a unanimous vote against her :(
Anyway. Moving on!! This challenge is hard and Greek is hard. I underestimated how difficult it would be to learn an entire new alphabet. Odds are in our favor because Plati has a 40% disadvantage (which is HUGE), but I'm still a lil worried. A lot of people on Nera either seem busy or not invested. The running score should not be as close as it is right now, we should be steamrolling!!!
Sasha
right, okay, god damn I need to get in this. high key. well, I'm trying but in the midst of everything happening irl, I'm a mess lmao. Jay sent out an edgic with no names to the tribe chat and I was like "okay which INV one is me" because that's already obvious. I need to like, actually do stuff so if we lose this challenge I don't be the first boot of my tribe asdfgnjhbcdsge
Elle
Once again I am the sole provider of the tribe win challenges because my back is hurting from carrying all these people. Since it is Raffy-proofed meaning that it is averaged, I just have to pray to god that people do as well as me. Like I even helped them in the tribe chat. If that was not enough then I do not know what will help these people. All I know is that I will not be going home since I am strong in challenges and they will need me for later.
Elle
Because I know this will come up eventually (and I want the proof here) these are my guesses for who people are:
Sasha - Dylan
Cranjes - John
Fae - Birch
Maxyne - Colin? Duncan?
Anyways love. I hope we win the challenge xoxo
Maxyne
PLS EVERYONE DOING 30-40 LESSONS AND I'VE 14 I'M GOING TO ĪĪ¹Īµ
cranjes
well shoot. oh well. gotta yeet a hoe.
michele
greek stinks, not even mad about only getting 7ļæ½ļæ½
Sasha
when you had the lowest score of everyone in the tribe, excluding the one who was exempted from the challenge : )
Maxyne
They better hide their damn ankles, cause whoever sprain their ankles during the hunt, imma shatter the next one >:(
Elle
It sucks that we are going to tribal, but I already know who I want to vote out: Frank. They are not very active and they did the worst in both challenges. So, for me, this is a no brainer vote of getting them out. Cranjes did not even know they existed until yesterday. I feel pretty confident at the moment.
Rain
Yay, we won immunity!
Finally made an alliance chat with Franco, Michele, and Eliza. We are a fantastic quadrant, and we make a tidy majority, though Iām sure weāre gonna have swap soon.
Iām honestly not feeling Gregg anymore. If we had gone to tribal, I would have pushed to get him voted out but like, not pushy like because thatās how the vote gets flipped on you.
Lenny might be a weak link too? Who knows.
At least worm is excellent.
I hope susan gets eliminated from redemption. Honestly... I respect her, but I donāt miss the energy.Ā
Elle
Also, earlier in the day, Maxyne and I had a little chat about working closely together in the game. I really like Maxyne, so this works out for me. I will keep them as a covert operator away from my big majority alliance. Eventually things are going to shake down such that the alliance crumbles, so I need to make sure people will have my back when it does.Ā
Sasha
wait I didnāt actually score the Lowest Iām just dummy ckkaskfbak
cranjes
who the fuck is frank
cranjes
i have no idea whoās gonna get the yeet. iām being told itās either maxyne, sasha or frank. but who is frank.
Dusty
Sooooo we lost the immunity challenge, which Iām not surprised about because I personally had no motivation to try and learn a whole new language and alphabet...But regardless I did my best and at least not he worst. Iām fine with us losing because it just means losing a less-active player, and gives us a tribal to strengthen the alliance that is myself, Erick, fae, Elle, cranjes, and Van. I really like this group of people. Erik, fae, elle, and I have been working together to try and find a damn idol but so far our hunt has only brought us to the other tribes camp
Franco
AHHHH WE WON. IM SO GLAD we don't have to do tribal again. I know I wouldn't be in danger but the less risk the better???
Anyway!! I now have 2 alliances!! Rain has been talking to me about getting an alliance for a while now, but they arent,,, the best at consistent communication and enacting plans. But I can't judge because that's definitely not my strongest suit either. They brought in Michele and Eliza which i think is HILARIOUS since us three already have our own alliance.
It just kinda works. Rain doesn't strike me as a super strong player but theyre fun to have around, at the very least it's another number and perspective for Michele, Eliza, and I. It just makes our trio stronger than we already are!!
Fae
Hi!!! I donāt have much to say, but here are some predictions on who is who.
Van = Zach
Erick = John maybe? Not 100% sure on that one.
Thatās all I have but I Think Maynor might be also be playing, but he is also currently about to win an atomic so maybe not? Zoe and Ellie are probably here too. Maybe Stephen? Is that a stretch? Only time will tell. Ā
cranjes
OHMYGOD I FOUND AN IDOL
this is what happened oh my god iām screaming
so i told erick i voted for him for the idol bc he started talking about ghost adventures and i love ghost adventures so in turn he shared the clue with me. it said something about tedious tasks, and idk why but i had to look at the top of the waterfall. under all the little stones. and there she was. iām gonna cry this is so exciting. is anyone gonna find out? no. hell to the motherfuckin no. this is my secret and my secret only.
Worm
So my tribe won immunity! That in its self is very exciting just because of how hard I work. We were very lucky though with all disadvantages because our asses would have been handed to us if not. Tribe wise, since we won I can take this chance to create tighter bonds with everyone. Part of me feels as though Jay may decide to add some twists to the game like an early tribe swap. If this does occur I want to be ready so I don't get swap fucked. Overall I think my relationships with everyone are good and can help me get to the merge. The only person that I don't have a decent bond with is Gregg, I don't think anyone does though. He isn't too active in the tribe so unless he is doing a lot of socializing behind the scenes I don't think anyone is too close to him. Now I know I'm safe so I shouldn't need to worrying about targets and who to get out when I have to go to my next tribal council, but I think I just like having a plan even if it doesn't need to come to fruition. So right now this plan is just in a passive state and is only told here.
Also fuck these idols. During my search I've only found a big egg and sand. What kind of tomfoolery is this! I have a feeling an idol has already been found, especially because Franco was given a clue to where it is hidden. But Im gonna keep going cause maybe I might find some more cool shit.
Frank
Iām quite concerned about possibly being voted out tonight because Iām not that social and that is concerning. Looking at all my messages though I have responded and the other people left me on read so like thatās why some conversations ended. Right now I get good vibes from Cranjes. Do I think Iām gonna go voted out though...yes, yes I do. Will I stay on redemption for a while...hopefully. But that doesnāt mean Iām giving up for the vote tonight, Iām going to try until the end because thatās what I know best.
Eliza
Dear diary....
Some of these damn people are gonna make me lose it, also at this point I think Iāve tried to clock my whole tribe + Elle as Raffy, I swear at least one of them is raffy, Franco and Michele Iām looking at you. I will find him. Anywho, I think itās about time I give my early game analysis of everyone! Iāll even give my analysis of the alliances Iām in for extra fun.Ā
Letās start with alliances!
Elfranchele: Includes: Eliza (Ellie), Franco, Michele
I honestly think this alliance could go far, my two beautiful meat shields whom I love ever so much! Right now at this pre merge stage I believe that weāre the core thatās going to be controlling the votes until swap/merge, and honestly Iām pretty ok with it. Iād love to go far with these two!
Named alliance: Includes: Eliza (Ellie), Franco, Michele, Rain
This alliance formed because rain wanted it to, they didnāt realize that elfranchele exists, and itās goo that no one knows of it. I like rain and think I could work with them but considering that someone already wants them out, Iāll be working with them for however long itās going to benefit my game, love then as a person but I donāt want a target on my back. (Yāall like the playing style Iām trying this time??? Itās new for me aināt it)
People!
Franco:
Ugh, Iād literally die for Franco, but I canāt attach myself to him, I need to remain a free agent although Franco is definitely my #1 as of now, I mean he gave me half of a super idol for fucks sake. As long as I find the idol before he does itāll be great, because I already know that both Franco and I are good social players, so having an idol that I donāt have to share with him/that he doesnāt know about? Beautiful! I want to go far with Franco, but Iād prefer to go a tad bit farther than him.
Michele:
We love Michele, her humor is great and I love the whole elfranchele alliance, Michele is the same story as Franco basically, minus the fact that she doesnāt know about the super idol. I think Michele and I could definitely work very well together because as of right now I have no reason not to trust her. Franco is still my top person right now but I still love Michele and want to go far with her.
Rain:
Rain is fun! We love them, people are already suspicious of them and that does not look very good, hopefully itās just Lenny overthinking but Iāll be wary of that. I love rain and want to work with them but theyāre not someone I absolutely NEED to go far with. This time Iām trying to stick with people only when they benefit me, thatās very new for me because Iām generally a very very strong social player that gets everyone to like them and then I pick a side and stay. But Iām try to branch out more this time!
Tristin and Worm:
These two are kinda the same story for me so Iām grouping them together before this gets too long, I love them both and they are generally great people to have conversations with. I could see myself working with them very long term. I told worm about Lenny wanting rain so that I could gain Wormās trust and it definitely worked so thatās great! I love these two and think that Iāll be able to work with them without anyone suspecting that weāre actually working together.
Gregg and Lenny:
They donāt really do anything, I mean Lenny wanted rain out but other than that? These two have made no real impact and havenāt done anything, if we lose again I see one of those two going.
Ok thatās it yāall, sorry if this was too long!! Have a great day.
Elle
Frank is definitely going to make their way out of the door today. He has not really been fighting for his spot at all, so it should be an easy vote. I felt like I got closer to Cranjes/John earlier in the day, so I feel good that we will be tight if I keep going for it. Finally, it seems someone has already found something in the idol hunt since I searched a spot that used to have something in it. I hope I grow close to whoever it is so that they will not use their item against me. But I feel pretty comfortable with my place in the tribe, however that is when I am the most vunerable.
cranjes
weāre voting frank. he just done been done too darn quiet until today. he made life a LOT easier by throwing a name out cough sasha who isnāt in the alliance of six (me, erick, van, dusty, fae and elle) and as far as i know it should shake out to be frank going to the redemption island duel. granted itās survivor so who knows BUT i donāt think i need to play my idol. so thatās where i stand.
Van Itās been a pretty chill day ngl. The Big Allianceā¢ļø has pretty much decided whoās going home due to inactivity and just generally not caring about the game. Talk of Sasha has gone around, but everyone is still voting frank as of right now.
Tristin
Iām super happy that we won the challenge. I donāt have to worry about sending another player from out tribe to redemption island. However, this round Michele tempted me with the possibility of voting out someone big. She didnāt say who but I told her I was interested. Iām here for chaos gorls. Currently Iām solidifying a F2 with Worm because theyāre cool and I like them. We also talked about voting off Gregg which is cool because Gregg is currently our weakest link. Also for the sake of the edgic, I must mention that I SEE lenny but she doesnāt do much which is a negative to me. Sheās just barely above Gregg on my totem poll.
Worm
So since we are safe my mind is wandering. After playing enough orgs, my gut is telling me that there is already an alliance in place on my tribe. I first suspected in when Franco won the reward with 5 votes. Then after we lost I talked to Michele maybe 5 minutes after it was posted and she said that she already talked to some people and that they all seem to be on board with getting rid of Susan. And then today, Eliza told me that Lenny wanted to get rid of Rain last round and that her and a few others got Lenny to change her mind and go for Susan. This conversation had me concerned cause I haven't had many conversation about strategy other than confirming the Susan vote and few people saying they want to work with me.I digress on that. As I continued to talk to Eliza she then mentioned that Rain doesn't know about Lenny targeting them unless either Michele or Franco told them. So my brain connected some possible dots I kinda came to the conclusion that Eliza, Franco, Lenny, and Michele are working together (or at least Eliza, Franco, and Michele). I don't want to put the cart before the horse but I might need to see if I can solidify an alliance with Tristin and Rain (if they would only communicate with me :'( ). Not gonna reveal any of theses gut feelings yet but I'm gonna keep researching and seeing if my gut feelings are correct. And if the are I need to figure out if I wanna be messy if we go to tribal soon or just ride it until merge. I can go with the flow and just be social and go with the numbers but that might not be whats best for the long term of my game. There is so much mystery in this game that everything feels like a poor decision. I feel like the confused lady meme right now and its only the second round.

Erick
We lost the challenge :( Ā I had to exempt myself for medical reasons so I canāt help but feel partially responsible. But I feel safe in my alliance, and I feel confident we are voting out Frank.
Frank
Iām feeling a bit better about tribal. I said Sashaās name before and now thatās spreading apparently since now Iāve heard their name from others. For right now I am happy but I am fully aware that anything can happen in the next few hours. I am going to try and maintain the conversations that Iāve had today throughout the game so I can be seen as more social. I just want to do well.
Lenny
I hope people in the tribe like me. I am not sure if I want to start an alliance with franco and worm or one with michele and eliza or both. I also think Tristan is a good person to have on my side. Very grateful we won this past challenge because I couldāve been in jeopardy with my performance in the duolingo. Why is the greek keyboard so anxiety provoking.
Maxyne
Okie dokie, so long story short we lost challenge and I think the plan is to vote Frank off unless it's a ruse to kill me instead. Tribals are always nerve wracking cause you never know what's gonna happen until it happens, and when it does happen... it's too late. I think i've been making good progress socially. I'm playing up the humor side as I usually do cause every tribe needs a clown. I'd be happy to fill that role it'll take me far. I don't think I'm a social threat as of right now but I would like to say that my tribe likes me. I didn't build the connection as much as I would like to this round since people came to me and I didn't come to them which doesn't always fly well. Hopefully if i survive tribal which is *checks time* a few minutes from now, i'd like to work more on my connections. Right now, it seems like Elle is the top of my personal leaderboard but i wanna expand my options. Also the idol hunt? Trash. I'd like to speak with the manager. I highly doubt that everyone here sucks at the idol hunt. One of these bitches have it. I fuckin know it. Someone has to be lying about it. Still, I wanna do what I can to find it. It's probably not there anymore but I need to satisfy my need to hunt. Anyways, let's go snuff a torch and hope it's not mine.
