So Dumbledore left in probably the most unceremonious tribal council I've ever been a part of. Nice not knowing ya!

I can't believe I was wanting a puzzle challenge so bad, only to end up flopping like I did. The cryptogram wasn't even that bad, I just choked under pressure. I just hope, regardless of if we win or not, that someone does worse than me on this challenge.It's okay though, I feel like I'm in a good position regardless and maybe this is good cause I won't be seen as a challenge threat? Which I'm not, so I don't know why I'm worried about people thinking that lmfao.

My relationship with Gilderoy is very interesting to say the least. I wish I could say I fully trust him because, he is the one person I talk to, and probably enjoy the most, and according to him it's the same the other way around, but I can't help but feel uneasy about him. He reminds me so much of Savage on Empire II, and for anyone that played or watched that, you all know how that went down. For now I'm proceeding with caution, but if he tried to get funny, I have a loaded gun and I'm ready to blast. Another thing is that I tried to bring up the whole code thing for the Hufflepuff Common Room, cause there's no ay I'll get in there by myself, and I told him what I guess and how many correct guesses I got, and conveniently forgot to send in his guess.


Whatever, now I'll just keep my guesses to myself unless he decides to actually share his with me first. I'm not trying to hand anybody an idol. Cormac also asked me about what I thought about the Ravenclaw idol and I decided to tell him about the secret advantage on the welcome post to like create trust, but I don't know if he'll think I snatched it or not. He thins that was for the Slytherin heir thing anyways and it's probably that, so I'm not too worried.

Honestly IP check Newt and Snape, they can't be real people. My edges? Gone. Snatched.

So whatever, we lost, Hagrid is most likely leaving. This is a pretty easy tribal council. The only thing that could fuck it up is an idol being used, and my only concern is that I could see Hagrid targetting me for getting the worst score on the challenge, because he's never here and probably has nothing else to base his vote on.

However, Gilderoy for some reason that I still don't understand decided that he wanted to vote for someone random just cause, and I think he settled on Cormac. I mean, I'm not complaining in the slightest, it could save me from an idol play but like, c'mon, no way Hagrid has an idol. But in case he actually ends up having one, I feel confident enough in my connections that I think I would stay over him if it came down to that.

This has been your boring update of the round. I don't see nothing too crazy happening before the deadline so I should be fine!
