So here goes nothing!!!!
I am incredibly anxious at the beginning of this game, I am on a tribe where I have NEVER played with anyone before - which has it's own ups and downs and its own benefits as well.
I will be posting video confessionals as well, I just wanted to type one up tonight so there is something there for me to reflect on moving forward.
First let's start with first impressions on my tribe.
First we have Eric Brodin, this kid is no joke. I have known about him in some capacity for several years now, but we have never had true interaction, never played a game together, never really gotten to know each other. I know he is a good player but he also comes off pretty chill. I like Eric so far.
Secondly we have John Coffey - I have never heard of Coffey so I didn't have any opinions going into the call with him. He seemed pretty quiet but the type of person that if they are passionate about somethin they speak up. A man of few words - maybe hes a man of actions? Like him so far as well.
Thirdly we have Johnny Poteet who will be known to me in this game as Poteet. Poteet is 15 years old and does not seem that socially aware. I like the kid and think that he could potentially have a lot more up his sleeve than one would expect. He types VERY FUCKING LOUDLY!!!!
Fourth off we have Joshua Felix - Josh is the type of person who I am never sure with. I want to like him and play with him but I also can see him wanting to target me, I believe he thinks I have a reputation and that may make him nervous, but my LEGIT strategy is not to fuck with people or cause terror, but just play the game and play it as good as I possibly can. I don't want to backstab people, I'm not saying I wont, but that isn't my perogative entering the game.
Kyle and Regan have not been online yet so I will withhold all opinions until I meet them
Lindsay - Santiago was a real prick to her, and he really hurt her feelings I think - I don't know the entire scenario but I know he really dug deep and went super personal on her, which alienated him from some of her friends. I do not want to be linked with the Santiago tyrade situation because straight up, I think Lindsay is cool as shit. She seems super insightful, really outgoing, and actually has interesting stories to tell. I would love to get to know her more and hope that the situation with Santiago doesn't make her nervous about playing with me. If it does, there is nothing I can do about it - But I hope that's not the case.
Finally we have Mike Reilly - I will be the first to admit I was NOT a fan of the whole seashell thing, but I think that it is part of who he is as silly as that says to put into words. He seems a little free spirited, calm, and incredibly likable. He gives me a really warm positive aura and I hope to keep getting to know him more moving forward. Well I want that with everyone on my tribe, but he just seems like the type of person I would really enjoy.
The other tribe has Corey Morgan and Brandon Clark, who to put it blunt - HATE MY GUTS. Corey and me have had problems with each other for years now, and I don't think he will ever come around no matter how many times I try.
Brandon Clark on the other hand is someone who I originally thought was a GEM - I Truly thought he seemed so nice and cool, until he betrayed me n Prosurvivor. Since then he has just had a clear dislike for me, which I hope I can change some day but I am also not going to try and force anything.
I leave off this first confessional with a big thanks to STEPH HODGES AND JOHN for letting me play this season and I'm Super stoked!!!
I want to win challenges, play a good social and strategic game, and hopefully see some improvement from my previous games.
Good night Faroe Islands. <3
