This game is playing out very similar to KSS now that I think about it. At least final 11 onward. Mespirit = Chihiro Two factions forming after merge starts. Mespirit and Chihiro kind of associated with both and medevacs. One faction clearly has numbers after this. (Grey tribe and friends + Mystics alliance are the counterparts) Uxie = Yasuhiro Most popular player in the minority alliance gets shockingly blindsided earlier than thought. Meltan =Sayaka Kind of a crazy player on the minority alliance getting dunked on by everyone. Cobalion = Kyoko Players in the middle take out threat on majority alliance team now Endgame is pretty much identical and it's players mopping up the biggest threats for a humble final 3 group. Poipoi = Akane The most threatening middle player gets idoled out. Hoopa = Celestia The leader of the original majority alliance gets taken out. Celebi = Mikan Last remnant of one team who has a shot at making to the end can't quite convince people to let them through. Tapu Lele = Gundham Player who people assumed was a goat, and hopefully proving jury wrong. Regigas = Nagito (whew lad) Deox = Shuichi (beep boop) The only people who don't really fit are Volvanion and Hiyoko who both had trainwrecks of a game and this comparison still kind of works. bitch im moderating this game i don't have to take these insults. smh.

Eh one question is waaaaay too limiting, even with a follow up. KSS having 3 was definitely better as it gave us a chance to get deeper insight about the thought process and values of the jurors without it becoming too overbearing. It also gave enough room for someone to completely flip the perspective of them, 24-30 questions can do that...8 really can't and it'll likely default mostly to the jurors thoughts going in rather than allowing a balance of that and FTC.

I mean, Hiyoko and Volcanon both posted terrible public fuckup posts... :thinking:

Tapu is continuing to impress me with her answers. She would have my vote 100% if I were on this jury.

Tapu is continuing to impress me with her answers. She would have my vote 100% if I were on this jury. I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT! I THINK TAPU IS LIKE, TELEPATHICALLY CHANNELING THE SPECS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WOW, I CAN ACTUALLY SEE HER FLIPPING VOTES WITH HOW EARNEST SHE IS BEING AND TRANSPARENT IN ADMITTING HER FAULTS. SHE ALSO IS SHOWING SHE HAD SOME GAME PLAY. I THINK SHE HAS COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT REGI AND DEO ARE GOING TO TEAR EACH OTHER APART IN THE JURY AND ALL SHE HAS TO DO IS SHOW AWARENESS OF HER GAME AND WHERE SHE CAN IMPROVE NEXT TIME. I'M ON BOARD, AND HONESTLY? I THINK SHE WOULD HAVE MY VOTE TOO AT THIS POINT. I PROBABLY WOULD BE PREDISPOSITIONED TO WANT TO VOTE FOR DEO OR REGI, BUT THEIR FTCS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS I WAS HOPING. REGI ESPECIALLY IS SORTA SPIRALING TBH. *SPIRALING HOWL OF DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

I like the SSB format because it allows finalists who excel at one area of the game to have a whole third of the FTC forum to highlight it instead of risking it slipping through the cracks when the jurors focus their questions into other areas.

I concur that I want to continue to see Tapu Sley Sley.
Also on the SSB format, I like the idea of it, but I feel it just makes the threads more cluttered and more likely that questions get lost in the shuffle whereas each independent topic allows you to focus on the jurors themselves and what they value. Talking all about an aspect a juror doesn't care about is just going to make it harder to convince them it should matter.

I HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH YOU. I FEEL LIKE REGI = AKANE *IF I COULD ROAR BACK TIME*

i'd probably be voting for deoxys here: i don't really respect lele's style of game so much and i reckon deo has done some impressive stuff. he won the two hard, skill-based puzzle challenges, he played an amazing strategic game and he's not as awful to deal with as Regi is. so i hope deo wins.

WITH MINIMAL EXCEPTION, I ACTUALLY FEEL LIKE THIS IS A PRETTY OPEN MINDED JURY WHICH IS KINDA RARE THESE DAYS. LIKE THERE'S ONE PERSON WHO I THINK IS BEING SORTA OFF PUTTING, BUT THE OTHER 7 JURY MEMBERS I FEEL ARE ASKING RELATIVELY FAIR QUESTIONS. *GROWLS LIKE IT'S 1999*

Okay, so I've just gotten home from work...there is so much more to read then when I had a glance in my break earlier
I certainly agree on having limits, also in the 1 or 2 threads I quickly looked at I see a lot of 'i answered this in another thread'
Anyone who has been following the whole thing got a summary of the general gist of what's being said? I really can't be bothered to read the whole lot xD haha

I WOULD PERSONALLY READ ALL THE THREADS AS MOST SPECS ARE SOMEWHAT DIVIDED.
FMPOV:
DEO HAS COME ACROSS AS A COLD MANIPULATIVE ROBOT, IS TRYING TO REDEEM HIMSELF TO BE THE PERSONABLE MASTERMIND HE WANTS TO PORTRAY HIMSELF AS, BUT IS KINDA JUST DOING SUBPAR RIGHT NOW.
REGI IS A DICK, BUT WHEN HAS THAT NOT BEEN TRUE? MOST PEOPLE ARE GETTING ABOUT WHAT THEY EXPECT FROM HIM.
LELE IS A GODDESS AND SHOULD WIN THIS GAME, IF THIS WERE SPECS DECIDE SURVIVOR. SOME PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING TO SEE WHAT SHE DID THIS GAME, BUT HER PORTRAYAL AND GAME AWARENESS IS LESS DELUSIONAL THAN THE OTHER TWO, IS SUPER HUMBLE ABOUT EVERYTHING. SHE'S ALSO FUNNY AND DOING EXACTLY WHAT SHE NEEDS TO BEST SELL HER GENUINE NATURE TO GET VOTES. WILL SHE? DEPENDS ON WHAT THE JURY MEMBERS RESPECT MOST. SPECS SURE HOPE SO.
*GROWLS AT BAD RECAP*

It looks like #TapuSlayLe is trending. I think we know who is going to be the Sprint Player of the Season.

She even legit explained why she voted out Celebi in a way that makes Tapu sound like she knew what she was doing. That's probably the answer that impressed me most. I'm the kind of person that usually votes the Deoxys player in these situations. I do think this is Deoxys's game to lose, but I always thought that his 'pretend im human BEEP' endgame plan was bad. Legit if he just presented himself as I WAS A STABBY ROBOT BEEP BOOP I OUTPLAYED YALL we'd be complaining about how boring all the votes being locked is.

BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING SABRINA, I'M NOT POSTING THIS INTO THE QUOTE THREAD AS I'M MOSTLY BRINGING IT UP FOR SPECTATING PURPOSES:
REGI: yeah, not really. the only person i felt any real connection with was volc and turns out he just lied about everything when I actually completely believed him and thought I could help someone else who was going through a stressful time in their life and give good advice to.
So I'm going to just give the same answer I got from volc to answer to this question at F11.
Q: How did you find people in merge? A: Not very interesting.
I FEEL LIKE, HONESTLY? THIS WOULD BE THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN FOR ME AS A JURY MEMBER. THE FACT THAT YOU CAN SPEND SO MANY WEEKS WITH PEOPLE AND HAVE NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT ANY OF THEM WOULD SINK ANY CHANCE OF EARNING MY RESPECT OR VOTE. I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHY POSTING STUFF LIKE THIS MAKES SENSE AS SOMEONE TRYING TO WIN A GAME. LIKE, YOU GET ALL THIS WAY JUST TO SAY "FUCK YOU ALL IM THE BEST" AND THATS IT? LIKE EAT A PIECE OF HUMBLE PIE AND SAY SOMETHING YOU LIKED ABOUT PEOPLE. AT LEAST DEO DID THAT. *SNARLS IN BELLOWING ANGRY*

The more that Regi does to tank his chances the more votes for Tapu Sley Le!

You know, maybe Tapu voting off Celebi instead of Regi was actually pure genius and the rest of us were just plain WRONG!

DEOXYS ACTUALLY MAKES A VALID POINT IN HIS CONFESSIONAL. BASED ON HOW MUCH HE'S TANKED BOTH TAPU & REGI IN PUBLIC, IT'S FAIR TO SAY IT'S DEFINITELY UP IN THE AIR IF EITHER OF THEM WOULD VOTE HIM IN A TIEBREAK SCENARIO.
THAT'S GENUINELY SOMETHING TO BE WORRIED ABOUT IF I WERE DEO. *YELLS IN ITALICIZED*
