Episode 0 - Almathea

[Almathea]

Hey all! I'm gonna start off by saying that I am spies4adelaide and spies5subhi!

My strategy this game was to play a happy go lucky character! Who is endearing and really likeable <3.

The person who is behind good ol' Almathea is supper stressed out, and highly emotional right now!

The idea is that citizens last a long time in the game when they are close to lots of people - and so do spies.

I reel players in with my bubbly nature! x then I form "deep" bonds with them over personal life issues - exam stress, break up, family problems!

At the same time I am seen as one of the hardcore players! I like to play gritty - its in my nature, there will be no stone left unturned.

Even as a spy, I am keeping record of every suspicion I find!

This is where my strategy unfolds more! I will be the leader of a little club called the Al's Question Club. Ally is not cliquey - but she will see more value in some players.

Each round (beggining really informally) I will pose a question to the Burg - specially crafted to see reactions.

For example, Round 1 will be "How much game analysis and scum finding do you think you have done so far?"

Then I will tell people how pleased I was with results of the question, so I take 2 people in and we devise another "tough" question.

Then I will say that I love these people I took in <3 and jokingly call ourselves the "Question Club". Each round a tough question will become eagerly awaited by the Burg.

With the question club I will form tight spy-citizen spy hunting bonds - in other words, I will form partnerships with citizens so that citizens not only like me but also think I am trying really hard to find spies.

With the Question Club I will have lengthy AIM chats about players!

Most importantly, this confessional will become a WEALTH of information readily accessible when I need to make some bullshit cases!

Cannot wait!

Subhi says:
Keep your chin up Ally! You and your gang need to be able to plan ahead but at the same time be ready to act for anything! Have a long term strategy and be able to have short term ones.

You are doing job so far, push your ideas through to the Spies - you know they are good so make them use them. Be a leader!

I am a trading card.

Adelaide says:
okkkies! i was seen as 100% citizen because I PUT ALL MY THOUGHTS ON THE LINE. do the same - but be more logical, back it all up with evidence, and be really transparent. you'll do fine!

[Almathea]

Just basically putting them there as a reminder to myself what my lessons were from previous games!

Talking to myself - insane :-|

[Judge Sam]

Woo first confessionals of spies 6! So exciting.


I'm very eager to see your spy strategy work out, one because it's unique for spies and two because you'll have the experience from last game to bring it to the next level. And I know you'll have fun with it!


The Question Club will be fun, you don't have to take my advice but maybe start off with it kinda informally at first and 'naturally' build into it... a lot of people are going to knock the idea and call it stupid / spy-ish but don't abandon it keep going. =)


lol and i like the advice from past characters. But you forgot:

FROM DA WINDOWS TO DA WALLS. LADY BALLS.

STRATEGY
Thanks I'm definitely going to make it informal, maybe (if I make it to) round 3 or 4 I'll say to my buddies "we are like a little club lol! Question Club !" and the kind of make it a joke name (but really its a very serious tool for the spies!)

[Almathea]

The way I'm going to work these confessionals is by making a seperate post for each contender, one for strategy and one finishing "diary" post (wait til you see!) just update them instead of posting anew. This way when you come back to read the thread, its so much easier

PETE

Cool guy, seems quite naive - could be a ploy to disguise being a past player, but I hate metagaming so I'm just gonna take it as it is - he is a bit naive about game rules. But he seems to be smart. Likes my ideas, I like his! We're even on the same wavelength regarding "cliques" sorry "cliches".

DONALD

I think Donald (and Jaya) is a bit more clued in than Pete! Im liking his ideas, but I hope they follow in my organisation!

[Almathea]

Confession
Dear diary;

Love the spies and their ideas! Hope they don't think I'm too bossy . Trynna get private jokes amongst us just as a source of morale - Jaya and Jason as a couple <3!

Cya, x .

[Almathea]

Confession
Dear diary;

Well in previous games I was the very first player on AIM and the Burg! So delaying it this time!

Yayness for being on the same team as Pete, and the two Jays!

I wonder which one of these guys will become question club!

I'm gonna make the threads in the Spy HQ now! I'll whip those spies into shape

Cya, x .

[Almathea]

CONFESSION
Dear diary;

Let Pete know I was mafia in mini game. Bad idea, he started messing around!

Getting close to Meiyun, and Tibz (tiberious)

In the mini game, me and pete were being heavily suspected at the hand! OH THE IRONY. Me and Mei swing votes to pete and mafia won.

[Almathea]

Tibz loves me, ROb suspects me go figure!

Just cos I asked Yvette a whimsical question!

[Almathea]

Told Rey in the Team Chat taht he is overdefensive! He reacted badly perfect!

Also laying foundations wiith Gabriella and Jenya!

[Almathea]

Paris - good ally for Question Club?

spies6almathea (00:22:56): you are impressive
spies6almathea (00:23:08): you stimulated more discussion than i ever could have with my thread
spies6Paris (00:23:11): In what regards lol. I just try to spark conversation
spies6almathea (00:23:15): answer my thread when you get the chance !
spies6Paris (00:23:22): which one is that
spies6Paris (00:23:27): if it refers to the inactive discussion
spies6Paris (00:23:31): i always stated my opinion on that
spies6Paris (00:23:33): but ill check again

[Almathea]

HUGE NEWS;

Jenya not looking favourable.

Went offline and then did a secret spy chat Revelaed I am in GMT so they know my weird activites.

[Almathea]

Didn't reveal my GMT actually

[Almathea]

Yesterday I think there was nothing wrong with Jenya pointing out Ellis' idea was spyish!

Rey is overdefensive, and come to think of it - he really was trying to over compensate on day 1 with his "now i am posting in my confessional".

He got super defensive when I informed him that i thought it was semi suspicious.

Then got even more defensive when I called him defensive!

Rey is #1 suspect.
Jaya was majorly lurking last night - she is my number 2!
Jason is very fence sitty, my #3.

Also I think Paris can join me and Tibz in my club! Hes very good!

[Almathea]

I'm up shit creek; just like I was with Adelaide - I sporadically spew out any thoughts I have. People see it as fence sitting.

Instead of changing I'm going to capitalise on it; with some more evidence and logic.

I'm going to continue; maybe come up with wacky theories.

I need to initiate my emotional connection side of my plan earlier than I expected - perhaps I shall start tonight; mention more about my mother's "engagement party" just 3 months after my father's wedding; oh and I can say I know my mother's fiance's daughter from high school and she's not nice (and I can't stand awkwardness when we meet up).

I'm going to be like "what do people expect? at least im putting my thoughts out there; I need to vocalize them to make myself understand them better".

Wacky theory #1 - Rey and Jenya are fake fighting; Jenya went ballistic to highlight Rey's abrasiveness; going to say the two of them fight and fight but Jenya seems to have no spy suspects and Rey leans spy on players like me.

Whacky theory #2 - Jaya and Paris.

[Almathea]

Robert suspected me over the Yvette thing NOTE: when it ocmes up again say the truth - i was tyring to copy and paste the question from proboards to AIM whcih crashed it.

Jenya saved my ass - told me i was suspected got me talking to everyone.

[Rey]

Jenya saved my ass - told me i was suspected got me talking to everyone.

Jenya, Jenya, Jenya.
Pete and Jason probably wouldn't have bussed her if you didn't do this.
Then again, she might not have been exiled altogether, so who knows!

Sadly I'd already chosen her as my first target so I was going to push for her regardless at that point Thus why I had to try to stop you guys from wavering on her!
