Tribal Council #3 - Discussion

[Jeff Probst]

Tribal Council

        

Hello Huaiyu and welcome to Tribal Council, behind you are torches. Please grab one, approach the flame, and light your torch. In this game fire represents life, and once your fire is out, as is your time in this game.

Now, let's get to the business portion of Tribal Council. We will begin with a question period, where I will ask each of you questions. From now until the deadline you are responsible for answering your questions and posting your votes in the thread in you confessional titled "Voting History". You will vote by modifying the following parchment. 

Using editing software you must write the name of who you are voting out on the parchment. You must then upload it (imgur.com is suggested as your ideal uploader) and post it in your "Voting History" thread. If you have any problems with this, please come to me for assistance.

If you fail to do vote before the deadline, you will receive a self-vote, and if you self-vote twice in a row you will be removed from the game. More rules regarding Tribal Council can be found in the thread titled Tribal Council Rules.

Now let's get to the questions.

Questions for everyone to answer:

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?

The voting deadline is Friday, March 13th at 11:00pm EST. If you do not vote by this time, you will receive a self-vote. As I have previously stated voting is to be done in your confessional, in a thread titled "Voting History", that has already been created.

Good luck!

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates? 


I like this tribe a lot. We have some very strong players and I am glad I started off on this tribe instead of Wuyi.

How does it feel to lose your first challenge? 


I think it stung even harder than it normally would just because how confusing that end of that challenge was. 

What will you be basing your vote on tonight? 


Keeping the tribe happy and hopefully stronger.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?


It really hasn't had much of an effect on the game as of yet, so for now it's had little effect on my game.

[Tyson]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?
Well we kicked butt in the first two challenges and get along pretty well. I think we are a stronger tribe overall and hopefully we get to stick together for a little longer.

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?
Its frustrating. At the same time it gives us an opportunity to build trust in one another. Past Survivor seasons have shown us that the tribe that consistently wins tends to turn on eachother post merge (Galu, Tandang)

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?
Keeping this tribe strong so we don't have to go to tribal council.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?
I don't think its made much of a different. I am sure down the road when tribal lines become blur and votes are less obvious it may come into effect. But for this vote it is a moot point.

[Chris]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?


I think the entire has opened up their hearts (and back doors) to me, and I think going forward we have a very good shot of staying very close together.

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?


You ever made plans to make a move on that girl you like and then she says "I dunno, I'mma have to ask my boyfriend?" Yeah, that's what that felt like.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?


My vote will be based on what I think will keep this tribe away from Tribal Council for at least a little while.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?
Not yet, though it very well may in the future.

[Marty]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?

I like everybody so far actually. We all seem pretty active and the fact that we came out on top of two challenges in a row shows we can work together well.


How does it feel to lose your first challenge?

It absolutely sucks to be here at Tribal Council right now. Especially since it isn't really anybody's fault.


What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

Unity. I want us to be on the same page as much as possible.


How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?

It hasn't really affected how I play that much. Sure it's something different, but the basic principles of Survivor still apply.

[So]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?

So far everyone on my tribe seems great! Some people are obviously pulling their weight more than others lol but there's still room for improvement!

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?

It definitely sucks losing, especially after I said I would be online at 10pm EST and then completely forgot about it! I do feel vulnerable because of that mishap.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

I'm honestly just going to try and find who everyone else is voting for and as long as it's not me, just stick with them!

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?

It hasn't yet.

[Joe]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates? 

I'm on tribe of a bunch of amazing people and its going to be really hard voting someone out.

How does it feel to lose your first challenge? 

It sucks allot since we lost because of a bunch of rules!

What will you be basing your vote on tonight? 

I'm basing my vote on what will strengthen our tribe the most.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game? 
It really hasn't caused any commotion or damage yet so it really hasn't affected it much to be honest.

[Lindsey]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?


I think that I have an amazing tribe. It's filled with great people. I love talking to each and every one of them. It'll suck that one of them has to go tonight.



How does it feel to lose your first challenge?


It's a little disheartening. We've won twice is a row, we were hoping to continue our winning streak but that obviously didn't work out the way we planned. It is what it is.



What will you be basing your vote on tonight?


I'll be basing my vote on the majority. Right now is not the time to vote in the minority, if you do, you might become the next target.



How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?


I honestly don't think it effected my game that much. Sometimes I even forget it's there, and I WENT. So it causes very little stress for me.

[Andrea]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?

I love everyone we're a good active bunch they're all great

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?

it definitely sucks we were on the short end of the stick. partially because we would have won had we known the rules more clearly.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

based on what ever will help me and my tribe get further.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?

it hasn't yet. but i'm sure it will soon!

[Malcolm]

What are you first impressions of your tribe mates?
Tribe mates seem really hard-working, and they are also doing a good job. I thought it would be harder for me to get in touch with them, but they are all being super friendly, so I am feeling great right now

How does it feel to lose your first challenge?
Well, I cannot complain much because my mates did the best they could, and it came down to speed on posting everything at a time. That is why it really sucks, but I trusted their effort, and I thank them because of their huge effort.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?
I haven't been able to socialise a lot until now, so my vote tonight is just an "As long as it's not me" kind of voting.

How has the Temple of Fate effected how you're playing this game?
I still don't know how it works perfectly, so I don't really think it influences us. I think both people going to the Temple cannot talk between themselves, so there is no strategy going on, and that means, there can be no cooperation. That means, it doesn't really affect the gameplay as of now, I think.
