Episode 2 - "Still Alive" Confessionals

[Oswald]

OK so I survived the first Exile and the first Imprisonment. Whew!

Now on Team Live (to be alive) and all new people. So now I have to get to know all new folks.

I am still with Mei Yun and Levi, neither of which I really trust. In fact Levi has the worst case against him so far. Though I am hesitant to get rid of Levi as he is a cutie patootie, ha.

I am finding it very difficult to talk to Jenya, she seems to not remember anything and is hard to talk to. Gabriella seems nice and has the same theories as me (Levi). Ellis is hard to talk to, Faith has been brief.

So in short, I still have lots of digging to do.

Tricky.

Wanted to thank you for the thoughts you are able to write down. I know you're on AIM a lot trying to find Spies but I appreciate those, as well as the conversations you post for me here. When I visit the site trying to get the latest update of what's happened, I do prefer confessionals because they are easy to read but barring that I go through your conversations to get the latest news. So if you post those right away then it helps out!


We talked a little on AIM so I know the game is going better for you but I have some questions:



What do you think about the +/- voting system? How will you personally use your minus vote?


What do you think about the voting system twist of Spies 6? Do you think it will affect the game?


What kind of different voting systems do you think might be used?


Did anything exciting happen in your team in the hours before the last Exile? If so what?

What did you think about Robert being Imprisoned?


Do you think you are in danger of being chosen for Imprisonment?


Do you think you are in danger of being Exiled? If so how soon?


I'm curious and want to know more.

This is the most frustrating team in the world. None of them are ever on.

Why do I keep being painted as inactive by people watching and others in this game (Amelia) keep saying it too, it is really irritating me. We have a very inactive team and it is hard to assess the damages.

So far, I am fairly certain Mei, Ellis and Gabriela are citizens.

I'd like to think Faith, Levi and Khaled are.

From there I have no friggin clue. People have terrible conversations with me. Talking with Jenya privately is like pulling teeth. She acts flippant and totally unfocused, but when she is in group chats she's miss right to the point and right on top of it.

Faith, Iris and Paris...argh. Faith I have talked to a lot and aside from always giggling I think she's being sincere. Iris and Paris however defend themselves by just having a love fest for each other.

Paris' whole defense of himself tonight was to defend Iris and to tell me that Yvette says voting for Iris, him or Faith is silly.

Well thanks Yvette.

I am voting Paris.

Oh hey Sam, I didn't see your questions there, now that I know you like confessionals better you'll get more of those my friend. In the meantime here's the answers to your questions:

What do you think about the +/- voting system? How will you personally use your minus vote?
I like the idea of the +/- system, it gives us a chance to really save someone we feel passionately about. Perhaps Iris could have used it to help Calahan last round. I will be using my negative vote to help Levi. I think he's getting a bad wrap from people, and I think he is just a young guy who isn't necessarily as articulate as some of us old farts. I don't think that's reason to Exile him. Also I think people will take advantage of his being gone on emergency to cement their thoughts on him.


What do you think about the voting system twist of Spies 6? Do you think it will affect the game?
The fact that it changes every time? I think that's a neat idea. Of course without knowing how each round will change I can't really say what I like thus far. I do like the +/- thing so far.


What kind of different voting systems do you think might be used?
I think a committee system could be used. Or perhaps a ranking system of who is citizen and who isn't, and the lowest averages are out. Perhaps a blind popularity poll. The possibilities are endless I say!


Did anything exciting happen in your team in the hours before the last Exile? If so what?
Not really there was a lot of scrambling between everyone, but nothing super exciting. Mei and I had a long talk which made me switch from her to Donald. A move I am fine with.

What did you think about Robert being Imprisoned?
Its unfortunate because he was a Citizen, but I think he drew a lot of attention to himself. That's admirable but also dangerous at this point. I never spoke to him so I am sad about that.


Do you think you are in danger of being chosen for Imprisonment?
I honestly think that I am safe this time around. I am active and trying to find Spies but I am not a big loudmouth with a target like Mei right now, but who knows. The Spies are crafty.


Do you think you are in danger of being Exiled? If so how soon?
No, I think I am pretty safe for a while, I am in more danger of Imprisonment than Exile I think. I think I have made a pretty good case for myself that I am a Citizen and I think a lot of people agree, which I am, so that's a good thing. I guess it will depend if we keep switching teams too.

Man, I wish you had been able to stick around. You're a pretty sharp Spies player.

Oswald is my favorite inactive. EVER.
