Dylan (DBWs) Confessional EP:1
So I'm going to mix it up and do a writing confessional every other day and a video confessional every other day. Because, frankly, I hated doing that it felt so forced. But I'm around another day so you'll get to see my crusty ass face another day. Unless I evac out to save Lexie.
#LexieMustWin. After the first day included an Olive Garden sponsored challenge where we Cole was chopped from the competition, we finally found out our tribes! Huzzah!
Going into the tribe selections, I really wanted at least 1 of Lexie (but not too much because that's kinda too much of a target), Eric (we bond over both being Washed up burnt old toast), Brandon, Newz, and like MAYBE Ray because I think he really buys into the fact that he's some huge target people will risk their games to take out. He always does a good job of starting alliances, and the early game is really 90% about people taking the incisive, and he does that. I'm not sure why I just got so sidetracked on Ray but there's your episode soundbite for the me and Ray storyline that I'm sure will be overplayed. I do trust him though for now, and I need as many allies as I can get with this swap every 2 rounds.
So the tribes get selected, and I'm on a tribe with Brandon, which I wanted, but with 3 people I was very iffy about, Mike, Joey, and Brandan. Lexie has beef with Mike (I'm fine w him personally, but I think we're at odds in the game), Joey and I never talked in the past and I was a big part of why he was robbed of China, and Brandan and my past is a bit muddled. Luckily, Brandon is close with Joey so he is being my keeper right now as I try to get in with Joey more. Mike, Joey, Brandon, and I apparently are a loose group because Brandon/Joey are in control and told me they have Mike, which is fine, we're gonna swap before we got to tribal likely. Joe exists? I'll try to reach out to him. Also I get to sit out in the challenge! Thanks chatzy! In fact the chatzy really fucked over Lexie by making Ray sit out, the only other one who would do the challenge apparently. People also got to see my creepy face peering out into the logo was fun. I'm more of a school shooter than Qaz will ever be that's for sure.
Luckily we won the challenge, I wasn't too worried if we lost, I think Brandan/Joe would be on the bottom. Lexie is going to tribal though, despite getting 2nd to challenge beast Jacob, which sucks. However, I think Ray will always be a target over her, and she'll likely be in a swing position which is great when tribes are going to swap as much as they are. You can make a lot of moves with near zero immediate repercussions! Wow we love a gamebot. I did go out idol hunting, but instead decided I needed to break into Bidoof's camp to get some Survivor loving. Ew. Oh god that was so bad. I'm not deleting it though, I don't deserve it. Anyway I found the idol at the babadook idol, sent that baby over to Lexie, and she found it! All the while I'm also helping Eric search for his tribe's idol.
I'm off to a better than expected start, but tribe swaps are gonna be aplenty and this game is going to largely be about the luck of the draw so I just gotta hold onto my buttcheeks, and cut the cheese. That's my conclusion paragraph thank you and happy santacon
