Regan is very unique and occasionally very confrontational. She can be charming if you get to know her, but based on first impressions I'm really not sure how she'll gel with this cast.
Chaos Casey <3 love her! I'm glad she's branching out and doing these games because I think she can definitely excel here, especially when her reputation doesn't necessarily precede her. She tends to think of one scenario and isn't the best at adapting as the game changes so I'm interested to see how much she's learned from the past few games she's played, but she's very likable and frequently ends up in the majority from the get go so I have high hopes.
Lindsay is such a sweetheart. I think she's a great player who always learns from her past mistakes. As long as she remains focused and doesn't get too shady, she's incredibly likable and will go a long way.
Saxon applied for my game on Tumblr, but we didn't end up casting him because apparently he made some people uncomfortable in another game. I sorta wanted to cast him anyway but we had to narrow down 18 players from 30 so I decided to heed the advice and not go with him. Suffice to say, I'm very interested in seeing him play here!
Blake is hilarious, but can definitely be offensive, so it all depends on the people on his tribe. I think he's definitely likable enough, but it depends how ~problematic he is and how people respond to that. I think that'll dictate his longevity in the game.
Brandon likes to play incredibly fast and hard from the get go, which in a way I expect. It's a game, go hard or go home. However, he has to realize that going super hard from the beginning is going to take him out of the game sooner than he'd hope, and I definitely think after hosting CYS he's probably learned a lot about strategy so I'm excited to see what happens.
Stephen played as a favorite in the first Tumblr season I hosted and unfortunately he left too early to do anything substantial. He's a likable guy all around and has a good grasp on strategy, but I really think he could go either way in this game.
And that, my friends, is your #TumblrScum report courtesy of moi.

The intro was amazing. I'm excited to see this cast play because I think the orange tribe could end up being a train wreck, which could leave people on the purple tribe in a decent position come a swap.

I actually think that although there will be more drama on the orange tribe, they'll perform better overall, at least in the first few rounds.

Oh man the game is afoot! What a start, both tribes had calls, 6 of one tribe were all present, 7 of the other tribe over the course of the night. Pretty good turnout for a Friday night. The reason we do the slow start is to give people who miss the first night a chance to still bond and to let people really get to know each other. Last season Erik missed out on the first night, and he made it all the way to the Finals. Never count anyone out, first impressions are important, but bad first impressions can ruin a game.HOSVIK
Our "crazy" tribe, was extremely chill. They're going to be a slow burn into full chaos, but overall this is a very cohesive tribe. Stephen, Saxon, Brandon and Casey were online the most over the course of the night. Feji was also online for a large portion of the night as well and Corey popped in and out. Honestly though, we had someone way wrong in our pre-game assessments and if you haven't made your fantasy picks, you may want to consider this guy... Honestly first night I'm very impressed with Saxon, he's been on call, but has been low key. He's playing perfectly, already wanting to stay back, let other's call the shots and just go with it and try for power later. I thought he would be a lot more over the top on call, but he's a good mix of reserved because he doesn't talk since I guess his parents are around, and yet very dynamic due to his physical motions. I think he'll easily find his place in the majority alliance and will bide his time before trying something.This tribe already seems like it will be cohesive and likely good at challenges. It's going to be a fight for power though!VAGAR
Remember when I said the orange tribe would be crazy, well clearly I underestimated the power of Patrick and Joshua. These two are going to clash, and if they don't and try to work together it will be a huge mistake. This tribe definitely had the most people online for the longest period of time. Only Kyle and Regan were MIA, though Regan told me she would be at a church retreat until Sunday. Lindsay appeared early on, and I think the Johns are likely in a great spot. They were both silent yet present throughout the whole call, which is smart when you have someone like Patrick be so open saying things like "Eric is such a good player that he intimidates me" or Joshua saying "I hate feminism". And then when the two of them get in a heated debate over BB14 and Patrick is almost legit yelling, haha, I would stay quiet too. My favourite part of everything though is Mike Reilly. He is the "ice-breaker" of the tribe, it's like he's not even phased by drama in the slightest, he is just on his own planet and it's amazing. Joshua is also very hung up on being the only person from outside of North America. Him and Patrick can be very pointed in the call and I think it may be problematic for them. They will definitely be the two leading the charges for alliances on that tribe.Oh man, that Hunter guy on Facebook posting about Regan and Casey. First think Patrick says when he sees it "I think Regan and Casey are related, they look similar".......CALM DOWN PATRICK! So funny, but oh man. He's going to play himself right out of this game if he's not careful, I think he's just a bit too excited, and I love that in a player, but he needs to calm down.They also love Blake, but I mean who doesn't, he's amazing!

On a call with the first alliance of the season the #FejiFans -- Corey/Stephen/Brandon and tomorrow morning will include Feji. Remember how I said the above about Saxon, SCRATCH THAT, haha. Legit might be first boot because Casey and Saxon have both not gotten on Corey Morgan's good side. And let's be real, that's not a good place to be. I'm surprised Corey and Brandon hit it off so quick, because I assumed they would both want to call the shots, but Corey has definitely taken the lead here. Which is really good for Brandon, because his fatal flaw is usually playing too hard, they are starting off quick, but it's subtle.
Also I'm super impressed by Stephen tonight. He is top notch social, he's already in with all the right people. Dark horse people, Stephen is a dark horse in this game.
Great first night to the game, we'll see what day 2 brings, whether first impressions will stick or change. Should be an interesting day!

Interesting start so far. Getting a little nervous about #FejiFans thinking it's a good idea to add her into a group chat even if it is named in her honor. Having bad flashbacks of Spencer.

To be fair I think they'll likely make a whole new chat and alliance name. They just made that one so the 3 of them could all get on call. |

I hope I don't sound like an asshole here, but does anybody else find it funny that Corey of all people is annoyed at Casey for her voice?
