Welcome to the game!
This is your confessional, a private space for you to share your thoughts with the mods and spectators. Please use it liberally and answer any questions you receive truthfully. You will also cast your votes in your confessional.
Please make a post in this thread to confirm you are ready to play.

Oh what, the pear-shaped chubbster holding a tiny red thing which is a rose but you have to look reeeeeally close to see it? Yeah, it's fine ^_^ I'm going to try to be a LOT better about confessionals than I usually am, because I'm doing something SUPER EXTRA this game. What SUPER EXTRA thing is this, you ask? Well, mods already know, but specs will have to wait til tomorrow to find out! I'll draft a whole thread about my stealth gimmick tomorrow. It's 2AM and I'm tired. Micro abstract for the first evening: Rat and Bunny are great so far, and seem to get along as well. I hope they continue to be above par, having an early game trio is life goals. Lion and Mongoose are also talkative, though I had a bit of a slow start with the latter. I goofed and didn't send him a message, and then we both sent one to each other within minutes a few hours in. Sloth I've barely heard from, Genet is MIA so far. Grizzly...well... First few messages, PM thread titled "yo". Let's make this a learning experience, buddy.

FHAP(Fox Has a Podcast) That's right, it's time for your very first personally handcrafted questionnaire from yours truly! We here on FHAP pick only the most quality questions that are specific to you, [insert player name here] and nobody else! We're looking for all the hot goss and sweet deets you're willing to dish out. Since it's been a couple of hours since the game has started, now seems like the perfect time to ask you our burning questions!
1) By now you've hopefully had a chance to meet with and talk to most if not all of your tribemates. Who stands out among the rest? Is there somebody who makes you laugh the most? Are you feeling strategic bonds forming? Is there anyone you must drop in the nearest firepit?
2) Have you gotten a chance to check out what the game has to offer so far in terms of twists and mechanics and setup? How are you feeling about what you've seen? Got any suspicions of what could be in store for you?
3) If you had to describe your gameplay style as a weather phenomenon or natural disaster, which would you be and why?
4) Everyone comes into a game with different skills or hopes and goals. What are some of yours? What are you looking to achieve? What skills are you bringing to the table?
5) Why did you pick the animal you did? Are you hoping to channel anything from them? What other animal(or spectator) choices do you really enjoy?
Well that's all the time we have for our interview today. See you again at a later date when we ask the hard-hitting questions you expect from FHAP.
~Fox out!

Congrats on winning immunity!
Did you need it?
How do you feel about your current tribemates?
How do you feel about gaining a new tribemate?

Don't write me off yet, specs! Busy day today. I treat the first couple of days as a sprint, and focus on my relationships first, second, and third. I finally feel like I'm all caught up with everything and have the luxury of confessionalizing, but it's 3AM. Big infodump coming in the morning.

Tonight, my dear panther! The end of the week was...tumultuous. I was always either working, at a family event, tired out of my mind, or prioritizing PMs/challenges with my tribe.
Rest assured, I am not as flaky with my tribemates as I am with you, dear specs.
My priorities:
1) Real life stuff like family, work, and spouse 2) Maintaining a presence in PMs/tribe/challenges 3) Other things with deadlines 4) Self-care 5) Preparing for a major life event happening this month 6) Confessional
Regrettably, the intensity of #1-3 has left little time for #4, much less #5 or #6. The early game is intense, but I think I'm finally settled in.
Today I woke up late (#4), spent some time with family (#1), procrastinated on returning PMs (#2) due to how good a position I think I'm in, and spent the afternoon working on #5. I did the challenge (HC said my time would have beaten Rat's if I hadn't made the mistake that half the playerbase made) and am now working on addressing PMs and TC (#2). I am happy, refreshed, and have no other obligations this evening, so setting up my confessional properly has finally cycled to the surface! Hurray!

I would like to request that you please quote at least one of your PMs without any context for our entertainment.
Thanks for your consideration!

Oh my, *I* don't have that many. If you ask it the right questions, the interweb will simply hand you adorable images. You want a hedgy flying? Floating? Camping? Cooking? I can do those all. Moth might be a little more difficult, but with some creativity I'm sure you could find things. Moth reading: Snow Owl was asking me about Guardians of the Galaxy and their excellent soundtracks, and that got me going about superhero movies. Have you seen any good films lately? From the Guardians soundtracks: Oh damn, you right. I didn't even think of Janeway/Chakotay, but their evolution from hunter/quarry to antagonistic partners to averted lovers to finally settling into a comfortable companionship is just good storytelling. I am embarrassed to admit that, not only have I not read the Voyager novels, I actually *own* most of them. There was a used bookstore going out of business in my area a number of years ago, and I picked up most of them for a song. But when you buy thirty or so books and half of them are part of one big series, it's kind of natural to start smaller, and then you move house, and they get stacked in boxes in the basement...meanwhile I'm rereading my go-to novels for the thousandth time when I could be reading new things. Human nature, I suppose. I've only seen the Spiderman movies once each, and I wish I could see them again. When we finished Wandavision, I fixed my girlfriend and I a big meal, opened a bottle of wine, and we binged the entire thing again in one go. It's a whole *experience* that way. Suboptimal is a good word for it. There seem to be a lot of pairs and thruples, but no real establishment yet. I feel good about my relationships with Lion and Mongoose, and I've been getting along with Frog and Owl. Well, I'm not not getting along with anyone, there are just some people you click with more, you know? Moth and I keep missing one another, Capybara and I are still looking for a really good subject in common, and Sloth and I are making it work. I do feel quite good about how well you and I are getting along, though! I think what would be best is if some of those aforementioned pairs and trios were to align with one another. Hoo Hoo don't feel bad, I legit laughed (chuckled) when I realized what was happening. Please keep sending me videos just maybe, at a slightly lower pace XD LETS GET TO THAT SECOND PAGE BB!!! Wait wait you were a Guide? Like as a job you worked in the grand canyon? That's kind of insane to think about. Pretty cool! Looks like we are on the "pain" side of things. Oh... I misread. You said "relax or plan" not pain. My fault. Still feels like we are in pain though......

Questions like that are easy, they don't take me long to give a good response to I continue to apologize for my absence from my Confessional. I am having a nutty couple of weeks over here. I'm telling tribemates that my weekend should be a lot more flexible and that's a fucking lie. I'm painting and packing a house this weekend, I'm just willing to go into sleep debt and respond to PMs in the bathroom when I'm meant to be working in order to maintain the carefree and responsive attitude I've been trying to project. Regrettably, as lovely as you all are, my willingness to sacrifice myself on the altar of this game does not extend to hours in my confessional, which is what a catch-up would require. I put in some work compiling the Legend of Hedgehog stuff this afternoon, but it's not quite ready. I *might* have that up tomorrow.
