Phew! You guys came up with some wild questions. My hope is that I did better than at least one person. Then I can feel better about myself. Aw, screw it, I feel proud of myself anyway. I gave it my best shot.

1. How are you feeling as a tribe? Are you bonding with everyone well? Are there any rifts or issues, or is everyone pretty much on the same page?
For the most part, pretty good. I'm the closest with Kestrel, Butterfly, and Snowy Owl. Dog isn't very loquacious, so it's been hard connecting to them. They often don't follow the "yes, and" rule, so I feel like I'm carrying most of the weight of the conversation. Maybe they don't like me. Or maybe they have some strange strategy behind it. I don't know. I wouldn't miss them if they were voted out. And Chickadee? We're about where we were last time I talked about them. We chat with each other like coworkers. We're in the same place, we're pleasant with each other, but we're not going to make plans to hang out later, you know what I mean? And Eagle? Their stylized writing is fun, but it's also getting to be a bit much. Like, drop the act, talk to me like a human being, not like you're a literal Eagle narrating a novel. I mean, they're fine. I'd keep them around as opposed to Dog, I think.
2. Some players did better than others at the challenge. Where does challenge performance fit into your vote? Does it matter at all?
To be honest, the questions for Jeopardy were hard enough that I want to cut people some slack. It's tempting to choose the person who got the least amount of points, but for all I know, they tried to do a bunch of the higher point options to help out the team, and they got questions they didn't know the answers to. That's just how it goes. It doesn't mean they're not an asset to the tribe. Maybe it depends on which questions they got wrong, which ones they got right, and which ones they attempted. I want to know their *thought process* behind it. Without that, how can I know who would benefit the team, and who would hold us back?
3. What will factor in who you are voting for?
Other than what I said above, I'm going to consider how I vibe with them personally. At least this early on in the game. I want to enjoy the game and the company I experience it with.
4. How does the Fitness Challenge affect your vote, if at all?
I think it gives me something to think about. Like, if they did really well or if they gave it their all, I'm going to want them in the tribe more. If they didn't do well or gave up or something like that, I may say, "Kick 'em out." Nicely, that is. I don't want to be mean. Gosh, maybe this game will help me grow a backbone.

Yep! I know 😊 Thanks for making sure that I'm on the same page, though. I am slowly but surely getting to the point where I'm like, "Hey, I get it!"

Okay, I changed my mind about Eagle's stylized writing. It is brilliant and hilarious and the nectar of the GODS! That whole thing where they shared a picture of the fish and wrote "Property of Eagle"? I FREAKING DIED!!! I need to keep them in my life.

Also, I sincerely hope Shark chose that spot on purpose. I have a feeling that bothering Eagle will lead to more chaotic hilarity and fun. I don't know if I would personally want to be the one to do it, but I will watch it with glee.

Reading all the banter on the Watering Hole forum is EXACTLY what I needed in my life today. They're all so freaking funny.

Clarification: for the Idol Hunt, do we move every day, or how often does a new round begin?

Got it. Can I tell you guys my move any time before then, or should I wait?

The mystery of the jetpacks has been resolved! It appears that Moth was the one who suggested it. Somehow, I missed that before.
Still doesn't change the fact that Dog is hard to connect to. I did teach them about Apples to Apples and Cards Against Humanity, though, which was fun.

You've implied that you're learning how everything works, does that mean this is your first ever tribal council? Either way, how are you finding it? How do you think things will play out? Do you have a plan?
