Well done for making it to a Tribe Swap ![:fan](https://i.imgur.com/074wyXd.gif) where you now get to play with people you may or may not have already met anyway! Just another day in The Goes Wrong ORG, but perhaps a quieter one... for now... ![:giggle](https://i.imgur.com/GdXDrBY.gif) 7. Tell us about that Tribal Council that wasn't! What do you think/hope would have happened, had the Votes been read? And how did the Rooms format impact the course of the round? 9. How did you leave things with each of the remaining Team Suchet players? To what extent would you trust them, or want to work together with them in the future? 5. Did you follow, interfere, or even pay attention to anything beyond your own Tribe last round? If so, what did you make of the events on Team Rigg and Team Harris? And did anyone or anything stand out to you in your Rooms as particularly interesting, or important moving forward? 8. Give us your first impressions of your new Tribe! Who are you PMing for the first time and what do you think of them? Do you have any plans yet for how to play with (or around) the mystery, teensy Voting Rooms format?

I will have another letter of complaint up tonight, hopefully (my complaints are in jest - trust I'm having a ball) This was a bare-faced lie. It's after 2am and I'm too tired to speak. And I still havent gotten back to the Deer head properly. Please send your complaints directly to the BBC if you were hoping for an update.

Head Righter how long will we be in the voting rooms? because that's 2.30am for me, and I have clients in the morning so won't be around at all.

Head Righter how long will we be in the voting rooms? because that's 2.30am for me, and I have clients in the morning so won't be around at all. More than long enough, I promise. It's not in any way a live round, and the schedule is intentionally spaced out to be friendly to all timezones. So whenever you get there, it will be fine.

Isn't 2:30 AM usually when the Ghost of Christmases Yet To Come pays you a visit?

I think this is a very clever concept, even if it results in my death!

This is probably my epitaph, so I'll leave the schtick behind.
Coming into this round, I have that feeling of dread that I get, when I just know things will go wrong. Mid Week merge, none of my close allies with me, and then I got a migraine.
Statsitically, I know people don't rank for these things based on what they actually think. They tend to be strategic about it, which is fine. Almost everyone lied to me about what position they ranked me in, which I expected. Even Croc!
So yeah, much as I talk up our chances of being most popular, I don't think it will wash out that way. I didn't want to vote until I got more feedback from Camille. Cos she was being very coy. But then Croc voted, and I thought I'd look shady (like Camille) if I didn't follow through. I always value long term trust ahead of short term risk. But couple that with the fact I did the challenge with a migraine (I was in bed all day praying for death) it turned out I couldn't successfully count to three. I'm an accountant - but don't worry, I didn't do any work yesterday. My client's files are perfectly safe. I was unsurprised when Camille flagged she'd probably vote me to avoid the tie. I almost expected it.
But I also don't think the saves will go the way we hope. idk. My gut is usually right abou stuff, and I made some awful choices. I should have told croc to hold off on voting until we'd consulted Camille. I should have waited to see if my migraine passed before attempting the challenge. And I kinda had shit luck with this grouping. It happens, and I can't be mad at anyone except myself at the end of the day. My real life will appreciate me being freed up and not having to message at 2am, so there's that.
I won't say thanks and good bye yet... that will undoubtedly be in my next update.

Ebenezer Scrooge Newman's Court Off Cornhill London The Director BBC 101 Wood Lane London 10th March 2024 Dear Sir I refer to my letter of 3rd March 2024, in relation to an amateur production by the name of The Goes Wrong Show ORG, and regret to advise that complaints lodged to date have as yet failed to have an impact on improving the quality of the production. Having my name associated with this play had better not destroy my chances of landing that advertisement role. The sets for the third round were built in the excessively haunted lodge, leaving us having to make our own rooms with which to converse. This is important to the ghosts who visit me at night, that I should be more friendly, but the rest of the cast did not get the memo. Somehow the actors almost all missed the fact that the grouchy old miser was by far the most charming and engaging person in this production. Only three of them thought to invite me into their rooms. I did, however, manage to get a couple of recommendations to get some extra votes, presumably from the Crocodile and the Prince. Team Harris requested tribal immunity owing to their awkward Trevor situation. I did oblige, as I had given my word. But reflection showed me they had two people who they had little attachment to, unlike us who would have had to remove the plate. The Plate got very unlucky in his connections, but is a stellar conversationalist. So I was relieved when everyone else seemd to disagree and rightly gave immunity to Team Suchet. The more exciting part of that round was that Team Rigg was an explosion of overplaying, and insensitivity to the format. Mostly because of Robert, dressed as a Trumpeter - the man is such a ham. As much as I delight in his hostile company, staging a coup against the tribe namesake, when the only communication possible is in the form of public Chinese whispers, can only be described as lunacy. It must be said though, it was by far the most entertaining role Robert has ever played. Though this was not his best work. The other tribes made the necessary dispatches of Tootles (how she survived over the butler is a crime) and Shawcroft - who seemed a decent sort of chap, but was a name apparently passed around before the round began. Changing that perception, with such limited communication, would have been an uphill battle. My sympathies go to him. RIP deadRobert. If you thought the sets in episode 3 were poorly thought out, round four says hold my beer. Somehow they were built to a 4-1 scale, which meant we could only fit 3-4 people in each room. Power would be determined by a challenge so frought with error that barely anyone successfully completed it. I identified straight away that the Deer Head had won, and chummied up to him long before he made it known that he had power. Easy done to be honest, he is a very underrated player, and far better to speak to than expected. Although he explained this by the fact he was letting Dennis drive the ship early, and has now taken control of his character using his whole Deer Head. In the Judges chambers, we were banking on having won protection. All logic pointed to that being the case, but one can never be sure. And when I say WE were banking on protection, I really meant me. I'll tell you why. Production demanded we count some money out to assist with the continued costs of this play. Generously, I chipped in 2 pounds, but let it be known, I still expect change. It was more than this show is worth, and surely doubled the production budget to date. Our tie breaker would be detemined by who gave the closest to average, and apparently my 2 pounds was the meanest contribution in our group. For that I am quite proud, as I don't believe in overpaying. To make matters worse, apparently this counting will also be significant in the upcoming round. Will my meanness be exposed? One thing is for sure, I may need to start doing some heavier lifting in the challenge department if they will be so important. Although it did Deer Head no good as he couldn't even protect his own group. I think the relative popularity was easy enough to predict though. I never met Trevor, and Mick was awful and should have been gone first round. The only exits I will miss to date are the butler and Shawcroft. But I don't wish to join them any time soon. Yours in legal obligation Ebenezer Scrooge

Ohhh get fucked at that challenge for money isn't going to have a second swing at eliminating me.
On the same day, I could not think of the word "cat". Dead set. I was showing my partner a pic sent to me, and called it a dog. I knew it wasn't a dog, but couldn't think of the word for cat.
Miracle I counted to 2 on reflection
