I'm on the wrong tribe. Four people there online. Just me from ours. Three people basically haven't talked to people all swap (axol, dog, Genet), like...what?
Dog probably has the idol so if we go to Tc ten we'll split the votes.
Cat has suggested a group pm/alliance of me,leagle/cat/rat but also suggested leopard seal in that group. Rat asked me what I thought because he's barely chatted to seal - same, so the chat is just us four for now. I think cat is trying to get various groups of 5/6(aquatica, aeria and rat in various combos) but a) I don't know why she's so bothered as I can't see the next few votes not just being pure activity b) I joked about the idol clue as I assumed axol would've shared it with their bff cat , but they didn't seem to know, which would be a weird choice if they did? So I told them. I kinda wanna ask 'sooo...do you actually care for axol?'
On the same theme, I'm considering doing something really out of character for me - taking the acorns instead of contributing. Why should I contribute to people who aren't joining in?
There's also finally a structure in a tribe, but Its 100% based on activity. There's me/eagle/rat small gap cat fairly big gap bunny and leopard massive gap axol, dog, Genet.

You have until the timer runs out to make your decision about your rewards.

On a scale from 1-10 how do you rate this question?

I'd love to give you some thrilling updates, but my tribe is basically absent.
Dog is pming two sentences once every two days. Axol replied after a three day gap to apologise for not being around but adding no content, game or otherwise to their pm (rat got similar, eagle is saying he didn't even get that), and Genet has gone.
Talks have been had in our little group (Mez rat, cat and eagle, or as I named us 'tean reck') about playing around dog having an idol that expires this round if we go to Tc and cat seems pretty open to axol being the split target - I thought they might be more attached but as cat said to Me, they've voted axol out once already!
Eagle made a big thing in our group about 'protectibg kestrel from dogs idol', which was sweet but maybe unnecessary?
I told rat a bit more about moth and the last TC, because it doesn't seem like it can do us harm.
Everyone is assuming we go 5-5-5 here, which could be interesting - if we don't go to Tc, there's still pretty high odds that you end up swapped with someone relatively inactive, which might make next round easier.
However...I'm kind of ok with going to Tc - I don't want to swap with dog or axol, really, and the idea that we could reduce the terra majority by voting out dog -and- Genet is interesting.
If we go, and dog goes, we've got
Me 1 Eagle 1 Rat 2 Cat 3 Bunny 2 Leopard 3 Axol 3
And
Butterfly 1, Capybara, 3 Frog,3 Hedgehog 2, Lion 2, Mongoose, 2 Three-toed Sloth 2, Snowy Owl 1
Four og aeria, Five og aqua Six og terra.
...how do I convince people to throw, lol.

The eagle seems deep in thought.
"A rule of feather is to never throw a challenge. We do not know the dynamics of the other tribe, and for all we know, they could be ready to eliminate someone who could be problematic to us later. And to send yourself to tribal is always somewhat dangerous."
"But... perhaps in this specific situation it is reasonable. I do not see a world where either of us is eliminated at a tribal council here, and the Dog's departure prior to the swap is actually of some importance. I think if it is to be thrown, it needs to be done in a way that does not look like we are throwing it, though." Kestrel Carnivora

"Maybe the best thing to do is to try, but not as hard as we would if we were worried about the results of tc? If mistakes happen, they happen, but maybe you are right and we shouldn't force them?"

"It is easy to talk in circles on a subject like this, yes? I do appreciate you bringing it up in the first place."
"I think that is likely the correct way to 'throw'. Not giving best effort is throwing in a sense, and if the tribe still wins, then we did what we could for those on the other side. I do have the issue that I promised the tribe a dossier of information, though." Kestrel Carnivora

Congrats on surviving 1 tribal council on your tribe!
1. Did it go how you wanted?
2. What do you think happens if you go to tribal again?
3. Have items affected the game at all?
4. How would you rank your current tribemates?

I'm going to end up on a swap tribe with dog.
I feel the gods are just laughing at me this game.

This tribe is so low energy, another vote of just voting out the person who asked to Be. Not only does it take all the 'fun' and strategy out of a vote, it limits our options but is just super depressing - not only did moth and ele get voted out for nothing, we all wasted our time last night on the challenge. It's so hard to keep momentum and interest going and it sucks to see so many people struggling.
Also, can the semi live challenges maybe take a break for a moment? We've had a lot of 'you basically need to coordinate 6 people' and it feels like a lot of effort for low reward. Because of the level of inactivity it also ends up falling on the same people. I think with the responses you are getting, that people are clearly struggling, it might be worth reevalting what that looks like for a few rounds?
Maybe a swap will help. I've never been less excited to get this close to merge - playing against people's mental health and a pandemic just isn't fun.

Also, spectator staph, I love your trolling of eagle. I did tell him you needed to use a colon though....
