This is your confessional! Please post here within the first 24 hours of the game, otherwise we will replace you. The confessional is for you to vent your feelings and thoughts about the game, as well as the place you submit your votes and other actions. You might see the following people in your confessional
Mods: Myself, Cynthia and Steven. Ask us if you have any questions.
Spectators: These guys are supposed to be unbiased and ask you what is going on in the game. They have access to all the confessionals, and are probably getting up to cool stuff in their area.
Your trainer: Your trainer only has access to your confessional. Everyone who doesn't have a ton of Survivor experience has a separate person whose job it is to answer your questions about gameplay and give you (general) advice. It isn't their job to play the game though, so don't ask them questions like "who should I vote out?".
Have a great game!
-Cynthia, Steven and I.

If you could snort the soul of any other player and absorb their powers, which player would you target? (Cephrir can answer all my questions too)

Wait you got Litwick?? I am so jealous. Literally the only thing that was tempting me not to play was that I couldn't be the Pokemon that I actually wanted! I think I picked well though. I am the sleepiest psychic boi.

Spectators just have a lot more rules about what they're allowed to say than I do. They can see everything, while I don't know any more than you write here.

Ok ok ok I'm finally here. My initial thoughts on the players:
Mesprit - Mesprit was the first to approach me with actual game talk, which I was down for. They mentioned foreseeing Regigigas as a major influencer, which suggests to me that they are both not super close with each other yet and that Mesprit thinks of them as a potential threat. I jumped on that to offer Buzzwole as another potential social threat, which segued nicely into me confessing that they were also pretty influential to me. It was a little cheesy, but I like them and I figure it makes a lot of sense for two lake trio boys to end up allying. Idk how serious it actually is, but they're the one I currently am into working with.
Buzzwole - I thought things were going really well to start with, but I guess I made the mistake of asking him about movies that he was interested in seeing, and I got a little iced out by an "I don't really watch movies" and that kinda killed the conversation thread. He mentioned being ready to sleep awhile ago, so I imagine that might be the case. I'm not really sure if I'm supposed to send him a new PM or how to really approach that whole thing.
Lugia - Lugia seems like a dear and I like them. We briefly chatted about board games, so that is something I figure I will try to play up going forward to maybe fuel future conversations? I haven't quite had a chance to discuss impressions of people yet outside of Mewtwo not being around, but we'll be getting to that probably later this evening?
Volcanion - I've literally sent one reply to them and I haven't heard back. I guess we'll see what happens when they eventually show back up?
More later

If that thing with buzzwole happened to me, I would probably try again with a new convo while also noting that that person is either socially unaware or doesn't like me very much
(Am I supposed to do running commentary? Do you want that?)

Victini - big fan of Victini and they're great conversation. They haven't left me in the cold yet, so I'm looking to get closer.
Mewtwo - an odd duck. Offered an f3 with Volcanion and me, and this has freaked Volcanion out a bit, apparently. I'm into this revelation because Volcanion is probably not going to get closer with Mewtwo and there may be a bit of a target on his back now. In the meantime Mewtwo still seems nice and relatively harmless, so I'm not prepared to write him off.
Regigas - He seems like a cool dude and is apparently the social hotness. Everyone is talking about the energy and how cool and friendly he is, so he is someone I want on my side. The issue is that he kinda feels out of my league? I don't know if that's a thing, but I'm apprehensive about putting a lot of time and effort getting him to like me when he's pretty much got his pick of the tribe. Does that make sense?
Tapu Lele - Tapu Lele is a peach and one of my fave players on the team. I want to broach working closer with them because they have been good conversation and just generally sound pleasant. Plus I think they get along well with Mesprit, so I smell a group collab.

I'd say if someone feels out of your league that's an opportunity to position yourself as their underling, if you want to. If they're very powerful you do want to make sure you aren't the one they like the least.
Nice to see you being aware on that front

Alright Volcanion is cool. He's into that board game lifestyle, which is something that I can basically discuss ad infinitum so that's a start. I plan on using the weird Mewtwo F3 offer as a natural segue into possibly working more closely together if he continues to be this cool and interesting. "Haha yeah that was super weird, but like you do seem cool and I would be interested in discussing game stuff with you going forward..." I'll think of a better way to phrase it going forward.
Additionally Tapu Lele and I seem to be getting on well. I could definitely see them getting looped in with Mesprit and me. I would like one of them to suggest it first, but we can see of the game develops.

Ok so Buzzwole keeps hard shutting down what I'm trying to say and I don't love this. I bring up that my favorite anime is Death Parade and you counter with your thoughts that it is a terrible mess and a disappointment? That's not super conducive to a conversation. ://////

Buzzy boy sounds not long for this world. If he's like this with everyone, you can bet they'll be trying to make him stop being alive real soon.

Ah, I guess prevailing opinion is that he's helping with the challenge a lot, huh. That might put a wrench in things.

Yeah he's close with Reggie I think, so I've gotta hope that I'm in good standing with my boy Regigigas. Fortunately Mewtwo I think is being teed up to be the first casualty. I'm still working a friendly enough angle with him, but I don't think he's someone I would stick my neck out to save if this goes poorly.

I suppose I'm not surprised mr. "numbers are more memorable than names" isn't exactly a social butterfly.

Mewtwo is mentioning that he feels closest with me, which is funny. I'm really hoping that we win challenge one so that I don't have to commit to making a decision on the first vote.

I'd say there is a very good chance that's true. It may be hard to save him, but he isn't any less likely to be loyal to you just because he's not chatty. Giving him a heads up to talk more could be dangerous/blow back on you so I wouldn't recommend hitching your wagon to his too hard or anything, but game winning decisions sometimes are the ones you make at the start.

To be clear I wasn't trying to recommend either course of action there; I'd probably take the safe route myself but as to which is actually correct I don't know.

Tbf chances are once you lose youll show up to 7 PMs that say gosh that mewtwo sure is quiet and it's already gg for him. But. Who knows.

Don't recommend specific courses of action involving specific votes. I don't think you have but just a reminder.
