@boltfromtheblue98
Hi bethany! Nice to meet you!
@videoburger
hi jack! great to meet you too
how you doing tonight?
@boltfromtheblue98
Pretty good! Just made some pesto for dinner for tomorrow and relaxing now
Whats your availability like for this challenge tomorrow?
@videoburger
I'm pretty open, I'll be working at home thankfully so can squeeze it in most places. best time would be my lunch which is 12-1pst but otherwise we can talk
@boltfromtheblue98
Cool, 3 est for me is perfect
Where do you live?
@videoburger
I'm in california near sacramento!
what about you
@boltfromtheblue98
Oh, towards napa or more central valley?
And I'm in north carolina, about an hour or so from the coast
@videoburger
sorry about that, had to pack and get home from my friends place
it's more central about 2 hours from san francisco, lake tahoe, or reno, in different directions
And I'm in north carolina, about an hour or so from the coast
I visited asheville for a festival years ago and thought the area was so beautiful and in awe of the cost of living difference compared to out here. I hope I can visit again someday
@boltfromtheblue98
Good morning!
You are all good dont worry
Asheville is really nice though, we go to a place about 45 minutes north of there called blowing rock on vacation during the summer when it gets too hot
Believe its one of only 2 or 3 rainforests in the lower 48 too
@videoburger
good morning!
Believe its one of only 2 or 3 rainforests in the lower 48 too
really, that's interesting. I had no idea something like that would be in north carolina. just another reason to visit again. though I really want to visit florida so I can swim with the manatees
how have you been enjoying the game so far? that really sucks you had to go to back to back tribals
@boltfromtheblue98
ah its alright, we made it through and thats whats important y'know
❤️ 1
but yeah, the pisgah! highly recommend
@videoburger
it looks lovely!
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah its gorgeous out there for sure!
hows the game been for you?
@videoburger
not bad, people have been nice, and the only tribal I've been to was for molly and she volunteered to go, so I've been lucky in that regard
@boltfromtheblue98
well that makes things quite nice haha
@videoburger
I would love to keep that going here but between you and me I haven't been flourishing in my blacktea practice soo 🤷♀️
@boltfromtheblue98
lol
I havent practiced at all
wanna just go for it? rip the bandaid off?
@videoburger
yes but also no lol
I'm technically working so I'd rather wait til I can give it full focus. I'm bullshiting practice between other items rn
@boltfromtheblue98
gotcha gotcha
@videoburger
but also like, this is so luck of the draw. some of these combos dont have a lot of words. it's annoying
@boltfromtheblue98
oh really
does it have to be in the exact order
@videoburger
yes
a couple I fumbled because I typoed
@boltfromtheblue98
oooooh unforgiving
@videoburger
yeah it's a cruel game but better than that word search from before
@boltfromtheblue98
oh jesus I heard about that
I got the jigsaw which was cruel but at least doable
@videoburger
i'm glad this challenge will be over in 5 minutes vs the hour I spent on that beast
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah for sure
just shoot me a ping when you're ready to go!
@videoburger
@Jack {S1} ready as I'll ever be
@boltfromtheblue98

@videoburger

@boltfromtheblue98
Im willing to just give you the win here
Gotta go get my kid from daycare
And you beat me fair and square
@videoburger
really? we could do the next round later. just wanna be sure
@boltfromtheblue98
No because im not sure when i be around by deadline and you have work
would feel cheap for me to back out otherwise
@videoburger
hey I mean I'll take it. best of 1 it is?
@goldensaturn
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah sorry it was anticlimactic lol
but fair is fair is fair
Good luck on your new tribe!
@videoburger
hey thank you! and thanks for being a good sport. best of luck to you too
@boltfromtheblue98
thank you! Think we'll need it, seems like this was a blowout
@videoburger
yeahh I have heard a few others have won over here so you might be right
@boltfromtheblue98
haha no worries
unless I get voted out
@videoburger
I hope not. you've been cool to talk to so far
@boltfromtheblue98
thanks! I try
I feel ok over here but the knives can obviously come out whenever

heya jack great to see you again
@boltfromtheblue98
Hey bethany! How are you?
Long time no see
@videoburger
I've been ok!! kindna stressed about all this but otherwise good
how have you been?
@boltfromtheblue98
you're describing how i feel to a t honestly
Freaked out by the other tribe vote thing
Especially considering I have met exactly one person on the other tribe!
@videoburger
Especially considering I have met exactly one person on the other tribe!
oh my gosh. who do you know already? I have to meet 4 new people now I think. 5 if I include you
@boltfromtheblue98
star
and I've talked to you and fuggles obviously but never shared a tribe
@videoburger
right yeah. dang lot of new people to talk to this is a Lot
how did your tribal go? ours was ok even though it felt tense at times people came around to corny for being less active basically. it sucked because he was nice but just not able to keep up as much
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah pretty much how the last one went down with omar
especially given the shitstorm of the ak voteout not sure if anyone told you what went down there yet
@videoburger
especially given the shitstorm of the ak voteout not sure if anyone told you wha...
I understand void idoled and there was a tie with AK and andrew but idk who voted for who or anything
@boltfromtheblue98
hahahahaha
Yeah give me a sec i'll explain
@boltfromtheblue98
@Everest Hub Bot#0212
basically, as soon as we went to Tribal, it was pretty clear that there were like two very clear groups, which were Andrew, Clint, Ryan, and then AK, AK, I don't know, Omar, and Brie. And then Void, myself, and Sam's kind of floating in the middle because we had decent relationships on both sides. and nobody said anything until like an hour before tribal and aka and uh andrew it seemed like kind of just came to a consensus like okay let's just do void whatever and so everyone voted void and then votes locked void is like i'm playing my idol good luck and when he says that i'm like what the fuck does that mean? Like, am I about to get idled out with one vote? So I threw the vote on AK, and then AK Andrew, vote tied, and then Voight and I, basically, we voted to keep Andrew, and then last time we were like, okay, let's just vote Omar out, and it ended up being a split on Brie, which I think was kind of like reinventing the wheel for no reason, because I really, I don't think anyone thought there was actually an idol. But I was happy to have an excuse not to vote Omar out, because I really liked them, and I felt bad that they were going home. But yeah, it was a nightmare. And I am nervous today.hey I am nervous as hell too this is an overwhelming siutation and the mystery around tribal really sucks
for what it's worth I have no reason not to have your back regardless of how we need to go to tribal here. I wanted to leave a vm in kind but am in a loud place right now
@boltfromtheblue98
hahaha no worries
I've got your back here 100%
@videoburger
:D I'm happy to hear that
@boltfromtheblue98
oh yeah of course
@videoburger
gmorning! how you doing today
@boltfromtheblue98
morning!
I'm doing pretty well, how are you?
@videoburger
bored at work honestly. I asked my boss for extra work like a crazy person. I really hate sitting here without stuff to do. so I'm dilly dallying til quitting time
@boltfromtheblue98
lol I get it
sometimes the boredom is worse than any of the work would be
@videoburger
it really is. I used to work at a record store and it was always go go go so time went by so fast and it was way more fun than this but also stressful
i don't want to work a job where I interact with the public ever again lol
@boltfromtheblue98
oh yeah retail is brutal. I used to work at a high end italian market place in college and it was fun but man the shifts were brutal
@mikeramp72
i worked at a supermarket for a month and a half and i was begging for the sweet release of death
@boltfromtheblue98
lol
my title was cheesemonger
I worked the artisan cheese counter and had to lug 90 pound wheels of parm around all the time
didnt need a gym membership for that semester though!
@mikeramp72
my title was cheesemonger
incredible title tbh
@boltfromtheblue98
oh it was so good
@boltfromtheblue98
Morning bethany!
How's it going?
@videoburger
heya jack, good morning! going ok, busy work day for me unfortunately. how are you doing?
@boltfromtheblue98
I'm good! Been running around a bunch too this afternoon so no worries
How are you feeling about the vote here?
@videoburger
like shit honestly. our destinies aren't in our own hands and I hate this twist. I'm trying to be cool but I'm depressed about it
@boltfromtheblue98
Yeah it sucks
It seems like everyone's pretty much in agreement on that
@boltfromtheblue98
morning bethany! hope work's going well for you this morning
@videoburger
thanks jack, good morning. it's been busy as hell, we're trying to get a bunch of invoices processed since the fiscal year is ending. thrilling stuff I know!
how are you doing today?
@boltfromtheblue98
ooh yeah just two more weeks
I believe in you 🫡
@videoburger
thank you! i'll be ok
so how did you come to play at this org?
@boltfromtheblue98
not sure haha
I've known mike like 6 years or so, he sent me the link and I hadn't played one of these since 2023 I think. I had fallen off watching survivor for a few years prior to 50 and then got back into it last season so I just kinda wanted to see if I could still play one of these and do ok. I made merge so mission accomplished for me on that front!
what about you?
@videoburger
I've known mike like 6 years or so, he sent me the link and I hadn't played one ...
hmm interesting it seems like a lot of people got recruited here. I didnt know anyone yet, I applied 100% because I'm a huge fan of twin peaks and couldn't pass it up! I'm a sucker for theming in orgs so I was excited to see the ad on reddit
I've known mike like 6 years or so, he sent me the link and I hadn't played one ...
and yes congrats to us for making merge. it's a huge relief for me. in the last game I played I was 3rd out and it really sucked and I was so I think understandably disappointed. but seeing this org made me want to play again so here we are
@boltfromtheblue98
Oh thats awesome!
I've never seen twin peaks but like a lot of lynch's other stuff. Think I'm going to finally dive into it once this season's over
I was going to start it last week but then the idol hunt drove me so nuts I'm now waiting out of spite
@videoburger
I've never seen twin peaks but like a lot of lynch's other stuff. Think I'm goin...
yesss I hope you do! I love lynch too but I haven't seen all his stuff
@boltfromtheblue98
I started with lost highway which is probably not his most accessible in retrospect?
@videoburger
I was going to start it last week but then the idol hunt drove me so nuts I'm no...
this idol hunt has been disgusting. I felt a lot better when prod eventually has to just dump all the clues because it's too hard
I started with lost highway which is probably not his most accessible in retrosp...
probably not??? also probably my favorite. at least you didnt start with inland empire
@boltfromtheblue98
oh yeah it was awesome
Bill pullman sax solo is crazy
That one guy is the creepiest thing i've ever seen
but yeah I watched blue velvet right before we started and I was like ohhhhh ok this is like halfway between lost highway and a regular drama
Could see the progression and it was cool
this idol hunt has been disgusting. I felt a lot better when prod eventually has...
ok here's my official throwing of the hat into the ring for trust's sake
Did you get the second command after the hint eventually?
Like for the four words
@videoburger
the closure one? yeah
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah
Did you get the command after that?
@videoburger
nope I am stuck there
@boltfromtheblue98
Well it's gone
?tv-5
@Everest Hub Bot#0212
?tv-5
WHAT WAS ONCE HERE HAS BEEN FOUND BY ANOTHER.
@boltfromtheblue98
So somebody's got it and beat me to it
😭 1
@videoburger
?tv-5
yeah I would never have gotten that. what a sick joke
@boltfromtheblue98
its fucked
@videoburger
well thanks I'm sure prod is happy now someone got it
@boltfromtheblue98
hahahahahaha
I asked how we were supposed to get it and they said "I do not know"
lol
@boltfromtheblue98
hey just want to let you know I'm thinking of you right now. take all the time you need for your dog. no way i'm writing your name and I hope everything goes as well as possible
@videoburger
thank you jack. those are really kind words. it's a waiting game now but I just called and the tech and he said she was doing better and resting🥰
I feel like I don't totally deserve your promise considering the last vote. still, thank you and I'm not writing your name either. I know if we had been on a tribe together earlier maybe we could be running this shit
@boltfromtheblue98
nah you're all good. you guys had a very good reason not to tell me and there's no hard feelings. I know you don't know me from a hole in the ground but I think if we can work together here it can go a long way
@videoburger
yeah, agreed and I don't see a reason to close the door either so. what have you been hearing? I know I've had fewer talks this round but my current understanding is fuggles is out there along with theo
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah it seems like thats the general vibe
A ricci undercurrent as well definitely possible but it seems like those are the two main
@videoburger
gotcha ok. what do you think? fuggles is threatening socially and theo for me is a mystery to me and doesnt talk game w me. so idk where I land yet
@boltfromtheblue98
I'm leaning theo at this point
The whole thing feels fishy to me. Dont see his angle and he's a total wild card, I think the lodge time is making him feel like he needs to overplay to win and I don't love that
@videoburger
hey well done. I voted for theo on principle lol. I heard about some funny stuff but didnt see any firsthand so it felt off voting for you here
@boltfromtheblue98
lolol
I think gem would strangle me if she could right now
@videoburger
sounded like they clocked you some pitting them against each other. wtf happened from your perspective?
@boltfromtheblue98
Basically the plan was ricci, marissa was (seemingly) being very obvious that they weren't going with the plan so I told clint I was voting theo. Not sure what happened after that
@videoburger
yeah I heard it changed a few times over a short amount of time. why tell clint theo if you voted for ricci?
@boltfromtheblue98
Because a person who shall remain nameless told me ricci flipped it on me
Was a last minute call
Mine was the crossout
@videoburger
I see, alright then
thank you. what a clusterfuck
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah thats an understatement
@boltfromtheblue98
Morning bethany! How are you?
@videoburger
hi jack! could be better. dog is still recovering and it's day-by-day. otherwise hanging in there. we ordered a damn doggy wheelchair for her coming today lmao. how about you?
@boltfromtheblue98
I'm really sorry to hear that
Hope your pup's able to recover soon, its awful to see them in pain
@videoburger
tell me about it
@boltfromtheblue98
Yeah we got our dog as a rescue and she had heartworms
Was a really long process but thankfully she's all good now
@videoburger
rescue dogs are the best! that's where I found miss havana
I'm glad your dog is healthy now
@boltfromtheblue98
Thank you! She had a really tough life before us but the last 5 years or so she's been very spoiled
This is winnie
@videoburger
dawww she looks like a sweetheart. does she like to cuddle?
@boltfromtheblue98
Yeah, she was really hesitant at first but she's a big old mush now
🥹 1
ok apologies for cutting to the chase here but i dont have a lot of time today
Is there any way I can not go home at this tribal
@videoburger
I'm open to it, and haven't heard any names out. apparently you made some people upset the other day but I wasn't witness to it. that's part of the reason I voted for theo over you is because I didnt feel like voting for you, basically. you at least kinda talk game with me where theo hadn't
@boltfromtheblue98
yeah I think gem and theo were upset that I leaked their plan but also
it was a dumb plan, and the only reason i voted ricci in the end is because I found out I was getting votes ten minutes before tribal and clints ricci vote was the only thing I could trust
and theo refused to talk any game with me until suddenly im supposed to go along with it. Mega red flag for me
I get if I just overplayed my hand out of the game but if you've got any other ideas I think everyone is pretty convinced that i'm the easy vote and everyone can chill, which makes it a lot easier to make a move
@videoburger
I get if I just overplayed my hand out of the game but if you've got any other i...
you might be right jack but with how quiet it's been for me today Idk what energy there is for one tbh. did you have something in mind?
@boltfromtheblue98
I mean if i'm in your shoes
Theo's sitting on an EV plus a mystery advantage, and clearly wants to flip on you
In one fell swoop next round he can pretty singlehandedly decide who's going
The clearly fake story that clint is being fed is you
@videoburger
The clearly fake story that clint is being fed is you
oof thanks for the heads up
@boltfromtheblue98
so maybe you're the target of that
I get not wanting to rock the boat but sometimes thats to some people's detriment
@videoburger
absolutely, you're not wrong or about theo either
@boltfromtheblue98
If I go here I go here but I'll say this
Theo is dangerous because he has nothing to lose
And sometimes the obvious choice is the wrong one
I will legitimately be rooting for you from the jury. Couple other people too, some obvious, some not.
❤️ 1
Mine's going theo so if you wanna join in by all means
@videoburger
I will consider it jack, I havent submitted yet. and if either of us goes here I'll say it's been great playing with you in this short time
@boltfromtheblue98
I'd agree
