HELLO FOLKS! I'm back, don't worry and I'm here to save the day. A lot has happened since I last wrote, sorry for flopping so much, but things have HAPPENED. So I have yet to go to a tribal council! I mean it's only round 4, but still, I like this. No stress about having to play my idol or not, and more time to develop some relationships! Let's rewind to Round 2!.
I was pretty happy with the times of my fellow tribemates, and mine own, and we won! Mostly de to a missetp from the other tribe, but a win is a win! I shared my combination and guesses with Mirabella, but at that point, no one else had mentioned them to me, and it caused me to be somewhat worried. Why aren't people engagng with me? Why aren't people bringing up strategy? So it made me a little uncoforatble, but I knew things could be way worse, so I just let that round go. With Hagrid leaving, that eliminated the rest of the easy votes, and the inactive players are now gone! I never had a relationship with Hagrid, so him going is something that doesn't really affect me.

On to round 3... THE SWAP. I could kinda feel that was a switchup was coming, the tribes seemed kinda mismatched, and this game loves to have twists. So now, I'll do a little Assessment of my tribe, and where things stand.
Angelina is such a sweetie. She's the type that wants to get along with everyone, and hold the tribe together. She's positive energy, and for that alone I want to keep her around for a while. She is very bubbly, and I can see her making connections to MANY other people which is a big concern for me. The 3rd round we finally discussed the Huffle puff idol and our combinations, and she started telling me what mirabella and lilly were guessing. I'm thankful for her telling me this, but im worried about the 3 of them. They were in a grouing ,and got to talk to each other A LOT while that round was happening, so I really have to watch out, and keep my eyes open with that. I'm a little worried about what the fish and Angelina are doing regarding my role in the hufflepuff idol.. Hopefully they don't think I'm THAT sketchy. Back to angelina, I could see myself sticking with her for a while, and maybe an official alliance will happen should we need to go to tribal council. She's definitely my favorite of the new orange tribe! I know that she has talked to madam pomfrey about things happening on the other tribe and I might need to worry about that if we go to tribal. The fish talked to her about the message at the tribe camp! BUT THEY THINK IT HAPPENED AT THE SWAP SO I'M IN THE CLEAR. I played dumb, but not too dumb as to give it away that I already found it. I trust her for now, and I think she trusts me up to this point.
Oh snape. If you aren't nav you are doing a great nav impression. The dry dark side, coupled with the complimenting, sweet side in personal conversations.. We love to take jabs at each other, but recognize that both of us are very useful to the team and we can use each other to go far. Anytime i try to get personal and find stuff out about him, he shrugs it off and wants to talk game. That's kinda weird imo, but it does mean there isnt a dry conversation between us. Because of this, I wouldn't really have a problem taking him out because he is not wanting to develop a personal relationship with me, and itd be justifiable. We recently just discussed the idol information for hufflepuff and slytherin, so i feel that I'm on better terms with him! He can kinda rub people the wrong way, but he's a fun frenemy to keep around. I think he and the fish are tight, and I think him and angelina are also tight. one thing i noticed about snape was that he quoted the the welcome post, and I saw that he was looking at it. I knew he was trying to solve the cryptogram, and get the idol. 24 hrs later he told me to quote the welcome message, and i did then may have played it too dumb when he told me he didn't get the idol. He might suspect I have it, but I find it odd that he waited a whole day to tell me about it. I wonder who else he told that too?? OH WELL. I have the ravenclaw idol and he doesn't. He talked to Pomfrey about the curse and game related stuff, which means he has made inroads with her. Something to watch
I don't have much to say about her, i think she could be an easy boot if we happen to lose a challenge, She's pleasant, but doesn't really initiate conversations with me, isn't really engaged with me, hasn't brought up any strategy talk with me, I am clrearly not a priority of hers, so I'd prefer if she got booted. I'm not gonna be surprised if angelina and snape push for minerva, but we'll see. I have to work on my relationship with her!
She and I haven't talked in a while, I think she's a newbie and doesn't really know the game? She's not great at challenges and not social as far as I can tell. Maybe easily moldable, but I need to put in a ton of effort with her. She's funny, but a little bland. I don't have high hopes for her chances in a different swap. We haven't talked at all about the twists and advantages, and she hasnt talked about them with snape and angelina. She needs to put in more effort, but I do as well. Here's hioping I can connect with her and take her deep in the game! Right now, she's towards the bottom of the trust list.
That's about it for my tribe. We haven't had to go to tribal council, so who knows if the bods are real. I'm not gonna throw a challenge at all because tribes of 4 are scary as hell. Let's hope that we keep winning, and I can find more advantages! I'm loving the type of game I'm playing right now, gotta put in some more effort, but I think I'm on the right track! We're down to 15 right now which means a merge isnt TOO far away. I think that I have 2 buffers on this tribe, pomfrey and minerva to help shield me if we lose. Next time Ill right about my other relationships and my thoughts on the swaps and twists so far!
