🤝 Welcome!

This is a private 1-on-1 for:
• @Ricci
• @Sams

What’s up ricci!

Hello! Nice to finally meet you, i’ve only heard great things

How much fun was exile

Thanks beast, likewise

I have a very serious and important question for you

During that song challenge, did you actually know the songs or were you looking up the lyrics?

It was just as lame as the first time

Was nice to not to have to worry about texting people

But I had no real say in what soul did

Can’t convince the guy to vote himself out obviously

LMAO this is a hilarious intro. I can’t say I remember this challenge all too well still - but I remember at least one song where literally nobody answered for 5 seconds so I swiped out and looked up a lyric to find it. But pretty much everything was off the dome, I only have discord on my phone so it would be hard to multitask that

I got some soft balls and they picked meme songs from my childhood, did you look any up?

And yeah 😭😭 as soon as I saw this I knew there would be a double tribal because who would volunteer to lose for the sake of everyone else merging lol

Ricci I will be so honest with you man

I’ve heard great things about you so I’ll trust you with this secret I haven’t told anyone

I looked up every damn song 😭

There was no rules against it and I knew for sure I didn’t know most of those

I was really mad Clint got WAP tho

I really wanted to answer that one

I guess it makes sense for the lore but still

Kinda dumb that my advantage only put me in there

When instead I could’ve gotten something cool like a half idol or I guess a safety without power advantage

😭😭😭

I don’t blame you at all

This is pretty fucked up, basically everyone that has been to the lodge so far has gotten some form of idol or advantage and THATS what you get?

I think we’re on the same page though, you’re safe with us

Dude I felt so scummy

But I guess that was a part of the game

I think regardless of if I looked stuff up, the other tribe was loosing

Corny lowk got screwed

Dude got quizzed on American music

And the dudes German

Tragic

LITERALLY

I’m pissed but whatever

I was worried it would put a target on my back, but now hopefully people see I don’t have shit 😭

You mean like for the vote?

Yes 🫡

Oh shit

Dude if that’s the case then I would be so grateful

Because this vote is so scary

I was saying earlier it’s like a game of Russian rullette where the person controlling the gun wants you and all your friends dead

I’m not sure if you have any nerves about this vote, but I haven’t heard your name like at all and I can confidently say you are straight chilling

This is great LMAO, I don’t think any one of us is solely holding the gun but I think we’re all pretty easily decided that the consensus vote for Bree is the right move for everybody

If it’s any consolation, I personally don’t want you and your friends dead! 😁😁😁😭

I appreciate this, it’s insanely nerve wracking just since there’s only 5 options on the table to be booted - but i’ve heard it’s not me so i’m hoping that ends up being the case 🤞🏼

Okay yeah I’ve heard this from a few people now which would literally cause the least amount of chaos possible

Idk if Bree has even been on in a while

Unfortunately she was prob the next person to go home

This is amazing consolation lmaoooo

The consolation goes both ways for me 😁

There being only 5 people available to be voted is very very scary, but again yeah I think you’d be the last person getting votes. Clint Andrew and Ryan have spoken very highly of you

Uhhhh hey man

Hey man, sorry i’ve been busy for the last hour or so but I definitely wanted to reach out because I owe you an explanation. Pretty last minute multiple people came out saying that Andrew was freaking them out by messaging them and saying that there was a plan against him and that everyone knows about it - paranoia hit that there was gonna be a move made against someone else so andrew got thrown out for acting suspicious. I hope you don’t take this as a shot against you, although you definitely have no reason to believe what I say at this point. You were never a consideration to be voted out in the slightest for me or anybody else here as far as I know

I appreciate that

It just kinda sucks

Like obviously I want to work with you

I hope I’ve made that clear

All I can really do is try and being honest and sincere about my game

I just don’t really know what to do moving forward

It seems like everything’s already been decided for me lol

You absolutely have made that clear and I hope you can understand that you were never a consideration - we just had to keep certain people in the dark when it came together so that there wouldn’t be any blowback. Andrew just made way too many people skeptical of what was being planned and it felt like the right thing to do

I honestly think people were just scared of an Observed 1.0 steamroll all the way to F5 because that’s essentially the majority alliance Andrew was pitching + a few stragglers

So I would hope your game isn’t decided for you already, I think the door is absolutely still open for me - and obviously I could only gain trust through action

I totally get that

Obviously in a perfect world I would be told about it

But let’s not shit each other

I’d def tell Andrew 😂

And so if that’s the decision then I really can’t be too upset about how yall handled it

All I can control is how I act and so I can just hope y’all don’t snipe me like Andrew

But also I don’t plan on freaking out and giving any reasons to be voted out

I’m realizing now this sounds so cryptic for no reason

But yes my door is still wide open and I would love for my new friend Ricci to walk in the door so we can work together in the game

Bc as of rn there’s not looking like many options 😁😁😁

I don’t think you’ve given anybody any reasons to come for you, this twist just made it impossible to share a plan across tribal lines due to how it could blow up and get one of us voted out before we could explain why it happened

I hope to be able to be truthful with you on these next couple votes so that you can trust me and the fact that I wasn’t hoping to take a shot at you with this vote

This is really valid

And I guess I am a bit to blame for not merging

But also not really bc the fact that I was even there is so dumb dude

It’s whatever 😒

I’m just a little jealous I couldn’t get something cooler

The twist was very dumb because yeah you can control who your side votes for but not the other side

So I understand 100% why that was kept from us

Yeah dude it’s water under the bridge

Now that we’re all the way merged, the game can really get started now

Very very happy to have made it this far

No seriously, you got shafted 😭 Everyone else coming from the lodge got some sort of idol, safety, or vote modifier - and you got… the privilege of knowing the information early that Soul wouldn’t be sacrificing himself in the game for everyone else’s benefit

Yeah, obviously I need to gain your trust through actions since I broke your trust - but hopefully you understand why it happened that way. I think it’s a clean slate now that we’re in merge. Everyone’s mind got fixated on the idea that Observed 1.0 would steamroll and I think now that the course has been changed, people will be wide open to new possibilities

I’m also just incredibly stunned i’ve made it this far, this is my first org that i’ve played so I wasn’t too sure how i’d handle it, but everything considered - i’m still having fun

Sorry I’m spotty rn, my mentor just scheduled a meeting for a project I lowkey haven’t touched in a month 😁

Yeah and me knowing early did like no good

I knew what was happening so it was kinda like I got to watch a movie early but I didn’t have the potential to threaten spoiling it to my friends

Seeing avengers infinity war early back in the day was like being royalty

Everyone had to treat you right or you’d just spoil the movie

Good times man

I think we’re definitely on the same page here

Obviously I cant help that my og tribe had a bunch of people still in but I’d feel the same way if any other tribe had that same amount of og members around

I’m very open to new possibilities

That’s insane dude, you’re doing really freaking good for your first org

I played orgs in high school, but I took like a 5 year break and now I’m back (kinda)

Not sure how likely I am to play another org during the school year

LMAO great times, I managed to see infinity war before seeing anything online; but got spoiled for endgame harddddd

I’m glad we’re on the same page, this game is gonna get broken wide open now that we’re here at merge so i’m certainly willing to keep the door open with you

& I appreciate this, I feel like it’s been a smooth ride for the most part but it’s definitely hit some rocky points with this last vote, and I know yall have been having madness happen over on the Loved 3.0 tribe

I feel like I would flop so hard if I was doing an org while still in school, not sure whether i’d flop at the org or school but it would definitely be one of the two

Oh damn dude that’s the worst

Those were coming out when I was in like 7th grade so me and my buddies would like ride our bikes to the movies to watch

We made a fuck ass infinity gauntlet out of paper

It was a core memory tho

100% it’s gonna be open

Very interested to see how people start moving now that the twist is gone

I guess we’ll have to wait and see after the challenge finished up

I AM NOT a fan of the madness man

Maybe it’s fun for the specs to watch me suffer

But I’m not happy

As lame as it sounds, I want nothing more than to ride out with a majority alliance

But I know that can’t happen 😒

Dude let me tell you now, orgs and social lives don’t mix well at all

They just take up so much time

Maybe it’s because I’m in college

But dude it’s insane having to balance on campus commitments with social gaming 😂

That was sort of the thing I was trying to avoid with that last round 😭

People will definitely be more willing to be open in conversations about game talk, that twist just made it so suffocating for the fear of someone retaliating

Is this the first org you’re playing since the 5 year break?

Yeah I’ve actually already started to see the differences which has been very nice

Even though I’ve been hearing it could be Jack or Clint it’s still nice to be in the loop

I played one in the fall and then one in the spring

Both not great choices

The first season back had 43 people in it 💀

Oh where have you been hearing this from? I’m personally waiting until after immunity to make any decisions on who I want to vote for

jesus lmao

I couldn’t possibly manage

I was annoyed when I saw this was 24 😭

Kinda all over the place I guess? I could look back and see who said it first if you’d like

I don’t think it’s set on them at all or anything

I’m just saying it’s nice to hear people saying names to me

Even though I don’t want either of them to go

Yeah man even this has taken crazy long

But it was a returners season

And it was a final chance kinda vibe

But it took so damn long

Morning! And oh okay that makes sense, I hadn’t heard any names directly that were being thrown out to be voted this round - but I guess that makes sense that’s going around. Jack has been pretty chill about things but Clint isn’t taking it all too well

Good morning beast!

Apparently void is kinda spreading it around

And I was talking to him and he just said that since he didn’t trust Jack that he didn’t trust me either

And I was just kinda like what the heck dude

I guess I’m guilty by association

Idk man

I’m sure things will heat up after the tribal

Yeah i’m sure, to be honest with you I really don’t group all of yall together like that. It mainly seemed like it was Andrew/Clint that were trying to push an alliance of all of Observed 1.0 together. I was especially thrown off by trying to include Soul on this after I had been getting told by Andy/Clint on Failed 2.0 that Soul meant nothing to them and they were looking for new bonds

I’m sure it feels like heat is on you at the moment by association and are especially feeling worried with this first vote - but I really don’t think you’re going anywhere

I have heard people say Andrew has been shady and at first I was kinda confused because I never really saw that side of him

Like I wasn’t close close, but we had a working relationship

But then I heard about all these damn plans and alliances that I never caught wind of and it kinda seems like yall did me a favor lol

This is really reassuring to hear man I seriously appreciate it

I’ve learned after the fact that these alliances he was pitching were not actually agreed upon by all of you guys and they were just being pitched out of paranoia I guess

Yeah I think a lot of things were just sort of said without my consent or knowledge

It’s so weird dude

I’m really trying to play this game knowing I’m not in power and it feels like my game is being played for me of that makes sense

Idk how to explain

But I’m getting grouped into things and targeted for stuff I’m not actively doing

I’m sorta just around

Good morning man! I’ve heard what’s been getting tossed around to both sides at this point and it seems like there’s one specific person trying to pit us against each other

I just want you to know my intention was never this “split vote plan” that Theo is pushing with intense dishonesty

Morning dude

So the idea to potentially vote me incase of an idol or something was not at all your idea?

No, it was the same person coming to you and saying to vote me out

We’re being pinned against each other

I have no reason to want to take you out

then i’m just next

Oh you mean Theo?

Yeah I’ll be completely honest I think the dude is just full of shit at the moment

Pretty sure he wants fuggles out now

But real shit I appreciate you coming to be and addressing the rumors of you wanting to vote for me

If we could come together and make shit work then it would be so nice and I feel like the game would open up

Right now I’m hearing that gem and Marissa could be working with Theo to target either you or fuggles

Which confuses the fuck out of me

I can’t tell what real or not

But what I do know is that this vote is messy as shit

See i’ve heard this same thing

So i’m inclined to believe it’s true, if not why would we both be hearing that when we’re supposed to be on “opposite sides”

I’m probably voting Theo now tonight, but I want you to know that even before all this started happening - I was never writing down you clint or Jack’s names

So hopefully we can take that and bring it into the next few rounds to build some trust

Dude I really want to believe that because there’s nothing I want more than to trust you and move forward

But I keep on hearing that it was you who suggested voting one of the three of us out

Which honestly isn’t the end of the world if one of them went out if it meant I could play my own game

But idk why I’m hearing from multiple people it came from you

I can’t say I know who exactly would be saying that, but I’m gonna take a stab at the idea that it would be Theo, Marissa or Gem and their intentions would be getting into the ‘middle’ and have us shooting at each other so that they get by. I have shit talked Clint to those people simply cause he and Andrew were a duo and that’s the easy thing to say to keep people on edge until immunity happens and real plans can form - and that may have been twisted into me continuing to target yall as a direct result of the Andrew vote

I’ve said this to Clint and Jack as well now, but honestly I see no long term benefit to my game in taking yall out - it’ll just get flipped on me as soon as there’s an open shot. I think people are recognizing that this last vote created a chasm and are trying to sit in it and allow us to take each other out

Okay I’m sorry for taking so long to respond, but I wanted to confirm what was said and by who and all the he said she said. I’ll be completely honest and I was concerned by people telling me you mentioned a plan of going after one of time Jack or Clint. I’m realizing now that that was never a serious consideration and I really really appreciate you coming forward and telling me what went down. Obviously you know your name is out there and I want to come forward and say that I will not be voting for you and I seriously want to grow a strategic relationship with you dude

There is so much shit being thrown around, but I trust you man and I really just feel like people are telling me shit to cause chaos

No worries man, and I appreciate the checking in - it shows me that you want to build that bond with me, so hopefully we can build some trust through this vote. There is a ton of misinformation being thrown around right now so it’s hard to dodge around what’s true and what’s not. I’m not entirely sure who’s really throwing out my name right now but i’ll know after the vote if I manage to stay. I appreciate you not voting for me, i’m obviously not voting for you

Oh it’s Theo

I thought that was common knowledge

He’s kinda been leading the charge ig

First he was wanting fuggles maybe

At least I think so

A lot of the things I hear have a like second hand

That’s crazy work from Theo 😭😭 He was pitching for you guys to me

Dawg

See yeah this is what I’m talking about

I seriously cannot trust a single thing I hear from anyone

I guess it’s because I haven’t voted with most of these people

It’s why I want to vote with you

I feel like we can actually vote Theo and avoid the unnecessary bullshit

It will be a beautiful feeling to know someone is actually telling the truth

Apparently Theo is scrambling really hard right now, he personally hasn’t said anything to me in a while

Is it possible Theo has the idol with how erratic he’s playing?

Somebody with an idol doesn’t not act this fucking insane dude

When void had an idol he was worried but not scrambling

Also I just don’t think Theo is capable of finding an idol 😂😂😂

Dude
