# ‼️ | _CONF QUESTIONS [Ep. 1]_
> Hey <@&1414008636451197038>! Your favorite host here with some confessional questions. If you could reply to these questions with your honest thoughts, it would be greatly appreciated!
—~—~—~—~—
_1.)_ | What brought you here to play Fiovivor? What's your goal for the season, and how do you plan on achieving it?
_2.)_ | You've been here for about ten hours and Day 1 is coming to a close. How's the vibe so far, what are your first impressions of people so far?
_3.)_ | If you would be so inclined to share, who is your partner in this game and how do you anticipate the season will play out for you guys? Do you anticipate some good chemistry or things to be a bit more on the messy side?
_4.)_ | What are your thoughts on the twists and first Immunity Challenge? Would you consider Sandbagging, or perhaps you have plans to get yourself or an ally sent to Rehab to skip Tribal Council?
_5.)_ | Trust rankings of your tribe perchance? Or perhaps any other comments of notability? :3

TRUST RANKINGS
1. Soul
2. Mish
3. Hailey
4. Lime
5. Speed
6. Sin

well yeah soul apart from the fact mine is pretty

and yours is well…

made by a man x

but ntm on soul he seems cool so far

better than sin / speed where i feel like im tryna interrogate a brick wall

Lime seems sweet but I’m not really a fan of super deep chats in orgs (especially not straight away), i respect their take abt raising awareness but I’m tryna jus take this game light heartedly

# DINO’s RANKINGS
> EPISODE 1

So its only been one day, I’m expecting this to change.

Definitely spoken to Soul the most out of everyone, I can see us working together for a while but I predict a “I cant end with you” dynamic later on in the game because we will probably both grow to see each other as threats. Just gonna see how that goes & hopefully I can reduce my threat level somewhat at the moment & try to sus Soul out a little more.

Mish just seems fun, I really like her energy through message and can see us getting along. My only criticism is that so far we havent spoken much so shes slightly below Soul in that regard. I would love to work with her though.

Hailey is kinda in between the idk and I like u category, she seems nice but also we havent spoken too much & the initial convo kinda died out.

Lime seems sweet, I don’t think we align much based on personality and stuff but that doesnt mean I couldnt work with him in the game. Might try to sus him out a bit more.

Speed wasn’t very chatty, one of the people I kinda felt like I was jus talking to myself with. Although I guess there isnt a WHOLEEEE lot to talk about rn, so I’m tryna keep an open mind. Only in the grumpy category because I havent sussed the vibe but I don’t like dry texters.

Sin idek, has a black cat i think?? We havent spoken like at all, all I’ve heard from them so far is a “Hi” so idk about that. Hence the grumpy category for the same logic as speed. Still tryna be open minded though and I feel like w Sin it might be a bit of a timezone issue potentially? We’ll see

<@374099594016980997> her chart is so cute

blushing

I love chart appreciation

<a:dinodance:1442307366572916867>

this is really pretty

# EPISODE TWO
—~—~—~—

# DINO HAS AN IDOL

okay so, Soul told me where to find the idol clue, which is like a huge gain of trust between us. We were working on it together & I wouldnt have it without him so as soon as I found out I had it I wanted to tell him.

I would have loveddd for it to be a secret idol, but I think with the “get 5 people to…” there was no way i could have done it completely alone.

Him knowing I have it should probably help us to build some trust & tbh I feel good about Soul rn so I’m not worried about it. I do wanna work w him. However, I’m not naive enough to think that I wont be seen as a threat, especially him knowing I have the idol.

# FIRST TRIBAL

okay so I woke up to find out I have an idol, and also to see that my tribe is at tribal 🧍‍♀️

although weirdly I’m kind of happy to be at tribal rn

because i think its a great opportunity to figure out where people stand

and going through the first tribal will help me to sus out this tribe

Before tribal - I think the people I spoke to most were Soul, Hailey then lime/mish (in that order).

Since tribal - Sin and Speed have actually replied to me😭, honestly I think its just because its tribal and they realise being inactive in 1-1s will cause some issues

I really don’t want to vote out hailey here, and I’d feel bad voting out lime or mish. So in my ideal world it would be speed or sin that goes here.

But I also don’t want to seem like I’m controlling the vote too early, so I’m just gonna see how the talks go and if people offer up names maybe I can guide them in the right direction

NOTES
> Soul went to rehab

> Soul told lime about the idol (interesting that lime was the first person soul decided to tell, that shows me his hand a little bit there)

> Sin and speed are tryna make up for lost time, I think they realise that them being less social to begin with puts them in an awkward spot.

> Mish immediately asked me how I was feeling about tribal, its interesting that they didnt try to ease into the convo & went straight to game talk. I don’t mind it but it also makes me think that Mish is probably trying to control this vote & being proactive about it

Okay so Sin is actually making more of an effort to talk to me

I can feel my opinion changing slightly

Right now I’m thinking to vote Speed tbh

cause I’ve def spoken to them the least after my chat w Sin earlier

and on top of that they did the worst in the comp

which i guess isnt a very fair way to judge

but I’m between sin and speed rn

could go either way

Keeping an eye on lime 👀

firstly, yes lime I already know about that idol and I have it - its interesting cause I know that soul told Lime, but Lime leaves that part out here

so thats very interesting

also tea

Lime spoke to speed about the vote too

So to my knowledge. Lime is close w Soul (close enough that soul trusted them to tell them abt the idol clue)

Lime is in talks w Speed, and wants to vote Sin

I was between Sin and Speed, but Sin clearly only wanted to talk to protect themselves from the vote

and I’d rather jump on this vote and make out like its Lime’s idea

hehe

its what I wanna do anyway

but I’ll let Lime think that theyre controlling it

# DINO’s RANKINGS
> EPISODE 2

Okay so we’ve had some changes.

Soul is staying in the top spot for now, I did debate moving him up to Angel tier but I am cautious to do that since its pretty obvious that he’s very social with everyone. However, him telling me where to find the idol clue is the whole reason I got the idol rn, so that does help to build some trust between us. I’m not naive enough to think that its from a completely selfless place though, him using that to build trust is just as valuable for him as me actually owning the idol is for me. He knew he couldnt get it with the “fuck you” command, so helping me get it is the next best option for him. Sooo I moved him slightly to the top of the cupcake tier.

Mish has moved down slightly just because we havent really talked much, she does seem nice but a bit guarded.

Hailey has moved up a bit, even though we havent had much time to talk I do really like her so far.

Speed moved up, I’m no longer grumpy with him, we spoke a lot more this round. Which makes it pretty clear to me that voting Sin is my best option. However - I am cautious about the dynamic between Lime and Speed, but rn I think they both see me as a number they can use so thats exactly the position I want to be in rn.

Sin has stayed near the bottom as per, they did make more of an effort this round but considering its tribal it doesnt come across entirely genuine. If I had it my way I’d honestly vote out Lime rn, but I think I can keep Lime around a bit longer, other people are gonna get annoyed about Lime seemingly playing all sides sooner or later. So sin is my easy option vote.

Lime has massively fallen down the tiers this episode. He didn’t exactly do anything horrible, but something fishy is going on there. Soul told lime about the idol and where to find it, then Lime told me about it (just to get me to say the command for him) then Lime says he wants to get the idol to share between me, speed and soul. He’s playing a messy game so far and exposing his hand, I’m sure it’ll bite him sooner or later, but for now I just need to make sure I’m on Lime’s good side so I can hide behind him when others start to consider going after a bigger target. I don’t think Lime is actually a threat, because I think at merge people will start to gun for him. But as of rn I’m happy to be positioned in the middle.

# EPISODE EIGHT
# —~—~—~—

HELLO EVERYONE

birthday celebrations are overre

so im back

I genuinely dont know what to do this tribal

cause its gotta be between grey or riley

and i fully like both of them

so idek

I’m just gonna see what the others say

also grey is fazz’s duo

and i do like fazz

so hm

Okay what the fuck.

why is it a tie between wall and mike

🙆🏻‍♀️

mike is my number 1 in this game

but wall is my duo

im genuinely considering voting wall here

and i did tell wall i wouldnt vote mike out

if he put it on grey then id choose him over grey

but him n mike

ehhhh idk

soul has leaked my idol too

which is so silly of him

UGHHHH

i need mike here

coz it puts me in such an awkward spot

and i literally dont talk game w wall

he likes all the ppl i dont like

🧍‍♀️

SO WHAT DO I DOOOO

if i send wall home he’ll hate me

IDK IM TORN

why tf would wall vote for mike

i think atp ill just vote wall

cause i told him that mike was my number 1

and its like i have to choose between my number 1 vs someone who voted my number 1

agrgehduenwhdbfu

but wall is gonna be pisssed

likee not happy at alllll

so WHAT DO I DO

ARGH

okay so

heres how i see it

if i vote mike out im losing my closest ally

and me n wall dont agree on votes anyways likeee

so its not like i can work w wall properly

i want to vote wall

but its jus the aftermath that would pmo

but tbh he put himself in that position

BUT he very much could have voted me

and didnt

so its likeeee

I DONT WANNA VOTE MIKE

if i vote mike then its like a “oh yeah so when it comes down to it ur duo comes first”

whereas voting wall would also reduce my threat level of like “you having a duo”

and to be so honest ppl have wanted to vote wall before

UGH IDK

i kinda need to know the tea tho

and its not like quas would be honest

wall said soul was pushinggg for them to vote me

meanwhile soul is the only person who knows about my idol

like ONLY person

i didnt even tell wall

i also gotta think like

its merge after this

if i keep wall thats a potential link to sort things w quas

whereas if i get rid of wall me n quas are gonna be ops

but tbf others dont like quas anyway

from the sounds of it

now thinking about comps

wall is an insane comp beast

so ppl are naturally gonna target him at merge

but so is soul / quas

omfg wall and grey

theyre literally shouting at each other

wall said that he wanted to split up when we get to merge

so whats the point in me keeping him in rn

im holding both my titties together rn

this is so scary

am i evil?

maybe

I’ll do a big confessional catch up later

hey at least im providing entertainment

<:6plead:1421964504463446086>

OH!

in all fairness that was sent at midnight my time and I’ve only just come online

1. yeah that whole pre-merge was insane, in the 2 most recent tribals ppl left slating me n telling everyone to vote me out so thats GREAT😭. Sometimes these games genuinely make me realise that my autism does impact more than I realise when it comes to socialising. With Lime I was genuinely oblivious to how close he thought we were, obviously seeing him upset was a shock to me and I don’t wanna make anyone feel upset. Even with Wall, the last convo we had before tribal he said he wanted to split up after merge. So to me it made more sense to vote him rather than Mike when Mike is my close ally and Wall is friends w the ppl who want me out - especially if we werent gonna play as duos anyway. We had this convo and I said that to him, then he said how he wont take anything game related personally. But when he got voted out he crashed out at me and it actually had me so confused. We spoke a bit in dms about it and he said he didnt mean the splitting off comment and it was supposed to be a way to say why us sticking together was better (although I literally dont understand how that works).

So I think both of these situations were very much amplified by how I am & how I just didnt realise what was really going on. I also look at stuff quite objectively when I play games, rather than on a personal level. I thought Lime was cool but we werent allies (from my pov) whereas me n corny WERE so I didn’t wanna throw an ally utb just because Lime was cool too?

With Wall after he said the splitting off comment and stuff, it ended up coming down to “well if mike stays thats a strong trio with me / mike / grey, whereas if mike goes, wall/quas/soul will be a trio against me. So logically keeping Mike was better for my game

2. I think me, grey and mike are very solid now tbh, we’ve really BEEN THROUGH IT together. Which also means corny and fazz are extended allies here. Initially I was closer w fazz than grey in the first place, and I was a big part in saving corny in the corny/lime vote, so I do see both of them as genuine allies as of rn.

Soul and quas need to go asap. I think it was such a stupid move from soul to throw me utb unnecessarily and expose my idol, when him keeping that to himself gave him more of a control over me. Now he’s completely burnt that bridge and I think his plan is to just go full on dino smear campaign. We’ll see.

Quas I actually think is a cool dude, and it sucks that our tribe was so stacked bc I acc didnt want to vote any of them. But because of his proximity to Soul, he’s the next best target.

3. Rehab (cool but very dependent on who was active to join vcs / who already knew each other coming into the game). I never really got into that twist or thought much on it. It is cool cause its like the reward trips in survivor.

Sandbagging - good twist, but I never entertained the idea of doing it while on a team comp because its a short term protection that might end up screwing you over in the long run. I think if it was secretive somehow, and only revealed if that person got the most votes (so functions kind of like an idol) then I would have been way more inclined to play along with it. Especially if it was transferable, I think it would have added a cool secretive layer to the game.

Cross tribe VC was cool, but VCs do naturally make the game harder for people who cant be online 24/7 or arent as good at talking / as confident. But its a hard thing to balance and I think it was done well by the fact it was the only VC

4. Assuming this means like fave n least fave times, my fave would be the cute vc I had with Mike n Grey. Least fave would be anything Lime/Wall/Soul related lmao

5 I mean I would have rather Wall still be here, but not moreso than Mike. The benefit of me not having a duo in game now does make me seem like less of a threat in the way that I dont have a guaranteed jury vote like others do. I think the big blow up also makes me seem to be in a bad spot / on the outside, which isnt really the case but I’m happy for it to come across that way. This makes me think that if theyre smart about eliminating threats I wont be top of the list rn.

I do think it puts me at a disadvantage to people with duos, because theres no one else to worry about when voting me out. Whereas if me n wall worked together here I think he’d have been able to keep soul and quas from voting me immediately (albeit not for very long). Another issue w that is Wall seemed to want to impress them and agree w them a lot, I think he bought in a bit too much to the soul fan club

# MY LIFE OUTSIDE

This weekend my family’s coming up to visit me for my birthday (they were away on my actual birthday weekend so we’ve made plans for saturday instead). I’m excited to see them.

Thennn after that the guy I’ve been dating is coming over to see me, and he said he got me a gift so I’m soo curious what that could be. We havent been seeing each other very long but hes actually just great.

I feel like grey has given up since fazz had to leave? maybe?

idk but I havent heard anything from him in a minuteeee

# —~—~—~—
# EPISODE TEN
# —~—~—~—

Right so I have a little plan

that I might try

hm

So Ive got a temporary idol

if I sacrifice my vote I can keep it for an extra round

Soul definitely has an idol

i dont think he’ll play it immediately if he doesnt think he needs to

so my thing is

if the vote is going towards someone I ideally dont want going

then I’m gonna idol that person with my temp idol n try to get soul out 🤭

however, this only works if its an almost unan vote or the other votes are also on soul and if soul doesnt feel worried / doesnt feel the need to idol himself here

but also like he might idol himself cause he knows hes good at comps so he could be like “this is one of the only times i wont be safe”

i see what you did there

good to see the hosting team is having fun

realising that soul was just cosplaying being nice at first & now he’s full fledged asshole 😭

and seeing katie be all shady too, they are a good match

let me not even

I’m alive and well

I think corny has finalllllyyy realised that soul actually jus needs to go

idk why mike even bothers replying to him ive been ignoring him for 2 days

i think its a boy thing

me, riley, virgo are a cute trio with no duos in game too, i think thatll strengthen us

then if mike n corny sort stuff out

thats a strong 5 right there

also

unpopular opinion i guess but personal insults as a form of survivor strategy is a wild take

okay so that kindness comp did wonders

i like it

I’m in my kind era xxx

I actually really love giving sincere compliments to people, in another survivor game I played there was this guy called Jacob and we were ENEMIES alllll game. Then at F5 we had a huge heart to heart and both said some lovely stuff about each other, we’ve been friends ever since🥹🥹

I think sometimes we all misjudge people, and its so easy to do in games like this. I don’t believe that anyone is 100% evil (well apart from trump)

# Life Yap

So today was literally hell, like it was one bad thing after another u genuinely cant make it up. I called my mum and just word vomited at her about my day and she was like WOAH it was so bad😭. BUT ITS OKAY, I’ve managed to cheer myself up & try to look at the positives.

Also tomorrow I start ADHD meds (well i have an appointment where they’ll put me on the first ones so it might be the day after that I actually start takinggg them but yah) so im kinda nervy but also this is HUGE for me and I’ve been on the waitlist for so long

i’m crine

so you totally ate this season up i was praying you’d play your idol queen but we loved having you 😭 <:dino:1460889977733779498> 🦕 genuinely one of the most refreshing strategic games i’ve seen in orgs. you play very cutthroat and it’s very satisfying to see, this is NOT what i wanted to happen girl at allllll

💔

israel won

AWW ILY

thanks cuties

I hope you come back like this mom omg

honestly when corny, mateo n lezaria all messaged me at the same time talking about flipping on katie i knew it was jus to make me feel safe

but like whats the point, even if katie got out and i stayed here the others arent playing

# Who do I want to win?

1. Katie - Genuinely has played the best game so far socially and strategically. Clear front runner right now.
2. Soul - Played a very good physical game but that doesn’t hold much weight for me. The reason he’s 2nd here is because out of everyone he has actually been strategic & made the best moves for his game (at least recently). He did tank his social game early on but managed to pull it back with the utr ppl. Idk why people work w him, but they do so that says something in itself.
3. Riley - I really hope she pulls off some good moves because I’d love to see her go from being almost voted out to winning. She has had a strategic mindset while also being social, but I worry she’s next on the chopping block because soul knows faye n virgo will be voting her if shes an option.
4. Corny - The only logic I can think of for corny to want to stick with soul/katie is to play the “I wanted to use them as shields” but its not very effective when the shields are still in the game this late. Also corny has been a more utr player so shields arent needed. & then theres the “everyone hates soul so hes actually good to have on ftc” argument, which is true yes, but I don’t wanna see a winner here where its just the least hated ftc member.
5. Mike - I’d lovee for mike to win but I don’t think I can vote for him knowing how many times he played right into what soul / corny planned. Pros are that he knew soul/katie needed to go, cons are that corny was able to trick him over and over.
6. Mateo - Mateo seems to be a strategic thinker (despite him not actually making any moves yet, I think he could)
7. Lezaria - an utr game, slid by and got far, but I don’t know if she can pitch well enough to change the pov on her, right now she hasn’t done much to be a winner.

Is it crazy to say that I think I was actually the last person left in the game that could have been a deserving winner that isn’t hated by the jury??

Although I do think Riley fits that too, especially if she manages to get herself to the end when shes on the bottom rn

I would have voted Mike if it was a mike, mateo, lezaria ftc. But tbh its hard not to vote soul here when he has objectively played the better game of the 3.

Voting Mike here would have just been because of our friendship & bc I disagree w how Soul handled things / the way he treated people.

But honestly, even that isnt strong enough. Soul played both of them well, and even tho I saw through Soul’s gameplay I’ve got to hand it to him that he was good at convincing the others to work with him

Like it genuinely still baffles me how any of them didn’t think Soul being in ftc would be an issue😭

But sigh, I wish Riley was there instead bc she would have been a great winner
