So the board is sideways. What of it? Everything is totally under control. At least on my end. I'm completely fine. FINE! Holding it together better than you, right. Right? Right... well here are some questions which should help you distract me from my woes for long enough to make the hackers think I don't care enough to raise their ransom so they might as well give up! Um... just tell me how you're doing, please.
ǝuo - How did your brief engagement work out last Episode? Were you happy to see Deer Head and Justice leave? What do you think would have happened if Justice had been able to stay and engage with the Format?
oʍʇ - With only eight of you remaining, walk us through the relationships and dynamics within the group, as you see them. Who is friendly? Who is aligned?
ǝǝɹɥʇ - Who are you closest to, and who do you feel the least connected to? Who would you be targeting, were you able to freely cast a Vote this round?
ǝʌᴉɟ - Weigh up the risk and reward of playing this Episode's Challenge early in the Inheritance Order, or later on. Which position would you ideally like to take? And can you do anything to make sure you land in that spot?
osꞁɐ - Once you've been given a spot in the Inheritance Order and are prepared to play the Challenge, ending your ability to communicate this Episode. You should use the Password in my next post below, and put it at the end of the URL you are given for the Randomised Roller.

Ooof that's terrible. So sorry you're going through that, and the hospital visit too I hope things return to normal as quickly as possible, and that this Game can be a helpful distraction in some way, in the meantime ![:<3](http://i.imgur.com/L3NpwEv.gif)

Now I'm less stressed about my general orientation issues causing me to completely fuck that challenge, I can reply to these. Thank you for the swirly arrows! My brain registered these appropriately! a) My brief engagement with Richard was actually pretty great? He seems a lot like me, basically running around telling everyone want he thinks they want to hear with impunity - right in front of me. #shameless and I loved it. I was happy to see Deer Head go, because although he was kinda genius, and I loved interracting with him on that level, forming a solid bond was almost impossible. It felt like there was a wall up. I didn't want to see Shawcroft leave. Not that I particularly wanted to see anyone else leave, I like everyone and they've been fun to play with. But the Roberts as a pair were an obvious threat that everyone could point to. Shawcroft was generally seen as the more disposable of the two, so that litle safety net is gone. The Narrators vs the Roberts was an impending battle, so now maybe the Chrises may get more attention. Especially since I chose the Prince in the inheretance order. ii) The relationships in this group are complicated. I'd say everyone is in some way connected to everyone else. Trumpeter is close with Suchet/Diana (who I see as kinda a pair at this point) as well as the Prince. But he's also closely connected with me, and to a lesser extent Margaret and Wimblegate. I'm not sure Wimblegate is all that closely connected outside of me and Suchet. her names certainly cmoes up a lot as the path of least resistance. Camille is closely assicated with everyone and I don't know where her heart lies. So too Margaret. I need some one on one time with them both to reconnect. I hope I don't appear too close to any one individual, and choosing Richard in the inheretance order was designed to maintain that. We've never tribed together. More on my choice later, because I've read ahead to the spoilers on question five. 3) Who am I closest to? arrrgh, that's a hard question. I've felt closest to most of them at varying times. On the surface I've spent the most time with Wimblegate, but she's a little sporadic with the communications, so we've never gotten that deep. I think we could tryst one another though. Suchet, I do think he still sees me as his number 1. Increasingly, I'm warming back up to him, and him giving me second in the inheretance order was something of a life saver I also feel quite bonded to Diana's no-nonsense approach. It must have sucked knowing Deer Head was the target last round, and that her divorce was inevitable. She handled that situation like a fucking pro. I will work with anyone, literally anyone. But in the absence of communication, my plan is to connect with Diana and Suchet to avoid Rutaing myself. I fucking hate how bad I suck at getting this balance right. Yam Yam went through about 20 odd rounds of a 36 player game, all the way to FTC without a vote against him. But ended up losing 6-6-3 due to his slightly lower profile. Hiding your power gives you longevity, but not a win. Ruta's profile was so ridiculously OTT that she had no hope of getting to FTC without immunity. Challenges are not my strength, I'm almost entirely social game, as I don't play enough these days to reach the dizzy heights of when I was mildly competent. five) That was interesting. I thought, in the absence of cataclysmic failure, that the fail point would be around 4 or 5 in the list. I was very much hoping for dead last, as challenges make me panic when there's so much riding on them. Together with my orientation issues. 1 and 2 are obviously the best spots if you can't hide further down on the list. after that I'd want to be as low as possible. Who knows, ever Suchet could have turned an image the wrong way. Then everyone would be safe. But I hope he didn't, because I need him, and like him. I was tempted to choose Diana in third, but didn't for the sake of appearances. Getting that trust with Richard was important too, and I knew he would choose Diana. I didn't think it would take him 12+ hours to fucking do it though ![:lol](https://i.imgur.com/X4ixXao.gif) I think the failure will be somewhere between Richard, Diana, and Camille. Like nothing went wrong for me, and I only had a couple of minutes to spare. In my head, Wimblegate and Margaret should be safe, but I could be very very wrong. I think my pick could be explained to them though, with that in mind, and that was my hoest thought. I will need to create a real alliance as soon as the format permits. I'm very open to who will be in it.
