I know I know I'm sorry, my confessional is dog poop. I only ever really post here if I need to vent or have too much time and need to think. I'll do my best to catch you up with whats happening on the tribe as well as what my intentions are right now.
Tribe Dynamics:
Sloth used a map idol to eliminate Moth. Obvious statement is obvious. The power structure was very lose at the time and no one from terraria was particularly aggressive. That let Moth take over pretty easily pulling in capy which pulled in frog which pulled in lion and so on so forth. Butterfly and I were just there for the ride but neither of us felt a strong lasting attachment to Moth. This could be because of me confronting Butterfly during Aeria about pushing my name.
As it so happened, my name was mentioned casually to Moth and it sparked a bit of animosity. I was ok with fueling that as best I can saying I would be there for Butterfly and painting Moth up to be this overplaying gamebot who we should side with for now but let go eventually. That eventually happened way sooner then I want but I gained new things out of it.
Sloth/Mongoose pairing for one. After the Idol play, Sloth/Mongoose needed new allies and I was already there with them. I knew about the idol and the three of us had a chat to discuss who should be eliminated. I had already pointed out Moth as the mastermind behind the vote against Sloth and this water/air alliance so it was pretty straight forward for Sloth to pick Moth as the Idol target. Again, not great but I'm not going to stop it. I got rid of one scape goat ally for two. Sloth has some attention on him now and I can hide (sorta) behind that. I say sorta because I think some players are a bit warry of me. Hedgehog/Lion in particular. As of now though, I have an alliance with Butterfly/Sloth/Mongoose.
Players:
I have sort of a meta read on Hedgehog which could be good or bad... I'm not sure. If they are who I suspect, then I don't trust myself to go very far with them. Either way, it's going to be stuck in my head for a while... I'm validating wanting to vote them off by looking at the idol map and saying, "well they are close to me so if I vote them then they can't take my spots!"
Unfortunately, Hedgehog is a rather likable person and while her relationship to Sloth has been damaged a little, Butterfly/Frog/Lion probably all enjoy her enough to not vote her out yet.
Capybara would likely be the immediate vote or at least, the first vote purposed. They have already had pressure on them and most players seem very indifferent on if they stay. I can tell they are trying really hard with me though so I'll gladly fight for them as long as they don't push Sloth again. I would like to put it in their head that Lion/Hedgehog are good votes but not sure how to do that.
Frog is a solid player who I want to work with but have priorities elsewhere currently. I can see a world where we swap and I'm forced to work with Frog as the Sloth alliance gets split up. Lets be real, mods love to split up alliances in these games and it makes sense to do it.
Lion is just a nice person that likes their exclamation marks. I don't ever expect to have a believable strategy talk with them so I'm hoping they are gone before Merge.
I've been pushing this narrative that Rat is a massive challenge threat in hopes that he gets targeted too once we hit another swap. It's not exactly wrong of me to think that either.
I imagine this round, Dog finally goes. No other player is as weak as him and if he does stay, then someone on that team is trying to use him for an extra vote. I just don't know who.
