Pregame Confessionals

[Kourtney Moon]

Oh, it really is surreal to be here! I'm starstruck, definitely. At least for now! But it's really strange to want to play for so long and then see your picture on the memory wall all of a sudden. I am basically the Erik Reichenbach or the season, just without all the stupidity.

:tarzan:

So, I check in, and around 10 minutes of me getting my text all pretty-fied, Tarzan shoots me a message on AIM.* So we talk a bit, about basically anything other than the game. Now, that's not bad, because I can tell he was just wanting a first impression or whatever, but I still think it'd be nice to just like, hint around at beating the favorites or anything like that. The most we did talking game wise is if we were avid watchers of the series or not. He definitely had a good time talking about me having Alzheimer's though, it "would be such an interesting case to study." He's definitely a character.

Midway through my conversation with Tarzan (which ended abruptly and without warning :( ), JT decides to say hello. Good thing he did because we definitely hit it off. We talked about memes and my bad luck and how silly Wanda was for choosing Wanda and food, so basically my favorite things. I totally see him fitting in the palm of my hand, though. Needless to say, he offered to work with me. Of course I said yes, and I told him what he wanted and needed to hear, and that was that, but I said we didn't need to try to get control early on, and that "nobody likes the attention seeking power hungry whores, now do they?" He agreed 100%, and he seems smart, so I'm glad we talked and he's easily the best person I've talked to.

Oh Wanda. At first I was going to wait for people to come to me, but JT said she was pretty cool and I couldn't wait, I wanted to get some conversation in before I went to sleep (which obviously didn't work out too well, I woke up at like 3 this morning, fml!), and she's not as much of a character as I thought she'd be. She's good at timing the songs and stuff so it's not obnoxious, but she sent me this song like 3 minutes into our conversation, and it sort of made my eye twitch. "Hey Kourtney, I like the things you do.. Hey Kourtney! If I could, I would do you! Too bad we are both women and you're a lot younger or I would sit upon your FACE! Kourtney's face is the best face... The end" But, needless to say, she's fun.

So, that's all that's happened thus far in the game. I talked to Bob a bit, but knowing him already, we didn't say much.

Until next time!

*I think it's important to let people come to me in this stage of the game, as jumping out and talking to every person you see could pose you as (a) a social threat or (b) an annoying fuck.

(P.S. I decided to do it in Episode Form :P )

This is really pretty. ♥

I'm centering this so I don't disrupt your flow.

[Kourtney Moon]

I guess I will too :P

But thank you! The boards are really pretty, so I'm just trying to stick with it :)

[Kim Powers]

I also think this is really pretty. Love it! <3

[Jonathan Penner]

How dare you disrupt her flow Kim?!

[Boston Rob]

I don't even know how to center!

[Kourtney Moon]

Idk either.

Btw, can we call Bob Dawg The Lol? Like, if he makes All Stars?

"This player played good etc blah..."

The Lol

That's all he ever says

[Jonathan Penner]

BTW you make some pretty sweet graphics

[John Cochran]

Dat hat.

[Kourtney Moon]

Thanks Penner! ;D

Dat Coch... ran.

Hello again! Not as much to say tonight as there was last time, but still some stuff worthy of going in here.

So I'm not exactly sure who I spoke to first today that's new, but I'm gonna say Coach. On the board, he's got the Coach character down, but in our conversation on AIM, he's a brick, and not in the brawny way. The whole time I kept talking to him, it just seemed like he was uninterested, which is either bad for me or bad for him, it seems. For real though, he couldn't have used a smiley just once?

And then sometime throughout the day I got to talk to Ace, who was very chill and laid back and witty. We talked about Big Brother and Survivor and whatnot, and his bald head looking like a butt. He's a cool guy it seems, but trying to keep my distance and not talk too much because he said he wasn't a fan of pregame talk.

Also talked to Darrah, who sent me a message promptly after she signed up, which is cool, I guess. Out of everyone new that I talked to today, she seemed to be the most likable, and she seemed to have liked me back. But her messaging me directly after checking in sort of sent up a red flag, she might be outta here if people can see that she's a clear social threat. It's the pregame stage though, I'm not too worried.

Talked to Mary too, who's obviously proving to be the flirt of the group. She's basically on the same level as Darrah, but Darrah didn't bring up sex as much so she got the edge. Don't mind me, though, everyone likes to sex it up, just don't make it the topic of conversation right off the bat, y'know?

vs.

Like I said, not much happened today communication wise, except maybe the bickering between Semhar and John, which I was rolling towards. Like for real, keep both of your panties in line, not everyone is even here already! Go write a poem about it, don't yell.

Until next time!

Hallo! Need one more confessional before the game starts, right?! It might be two or so days before the game actually starts, but I can already start to feel who's on the outs and who's not.

First up is this chica! I actually feel bad if she's waiting for the game to start to actually get online, because it's too little too late I think. And I was talking to JT today and he mentioned having a gut feeling she had some pregame connections with the favorites. Little does he know that this lil' charma does too ;) But JT mentioned wanting to get her out early based on his gut. We'll see.

And thisss is Kelly! Wanda and I decided today that Lex and Brett casted her as an easy vote, because she's not all there as Wawa says. I personally haven't spoken a word to her, but I probably will before it's said and done. I think it'll be too late though, the people that are consistently on AIM have sort of already silently decided she'll be an early boot I think.

I don't want to necessarily say he'll be an early vote, because he's on a lot, but to the people I'm talking to/liking, we never talk about him, which either puts him as an UTR radar or just a really boring person. I say the latter. Like I said, he's a character on the board and a brick off of it. Goodbye (probably/hopefully)!

I think I'd say that Tarzan is also on the outs of the tribe, but not as much of the others. He's definitely like the real Tarzan, always using words that no one knows either correctly or incorrectly. I can hold a conversation with him but not one that I particularly enjoy... And no one's told me directly but Frosti mentioned that some people are getting sort of annoyed at people talking in character on AIM. It's personally not too annoying to me, just make the character interesting. Don't be the dumbass who goes with the character the show made them or whatever, be interesting about it!

Oh yeah! Speaking of Frosti, I got to talk to him last night for a good while. He's a really cool dude, but didn't seem to know his stuff about Sausage at all. He's either playing dumb or is one of the dull tools in the shed... But needless to say, we had a really good conversation which included him sucking up and calling me his favorite. He's finally getting on AIM, which I mean it's only been 2 and a half days or whatever, but as you can see, it's been an important 2 and a half days imo. But we'll probably work together at least for the first few rounds, assuming that the tribes are Fans and Favorites. I'll cry if it's not.

Ooooh Wawa. She's so great. I'm her little Koko and she's my Wawa, haha. She came to me last night and mentioned that she'd like to work with me when the game starts, but she also said that I was one of the only people she really likes so far. Flattery, but I can't take that too seriously I don't think, I don't think I'm the only one she likes. But it's nice she talked to me about working together, I figured we'd end up doing that anyway, but it's great that she approached me instead of me approaching her, y'know?

Same goes to JT. Though he came to me much early than Wanda did, and was the first person in the game I talked to. So basically, seeing as Wanda, JT, and I were the first people to really be on AIM and talk to each other, I think that we'll end up in being a great trio. I'm just worried one of them or (ugh, it'll suck) even me might make it a tad too obvious. But I'm trying my hardest, and I think it's paying off. On top of that, JT and I talked and I think we "connected on a more personal level." ( ;) ) Nah, not like that. We just talked a bit more and opened up a little bit more, not by a lot though. Slowly but surely! He's really cool and laid back, hopefully he won't be some absolute mastermind when it comes to game, and hopefully he's not like HvV JT, running around and flip flopping at every chance he has. Doesn't seem like it though... I don't get that feeling.

So that's about it, might be a tad large post but I think it was necessary! Just trying to keep you guys updated or whateva!

Until next time!

[Kourtney Moon]

Seriously, John? Don't make me look like I like you by putting my last name as your display name and AIM name. It's not cute! I'm really trying to play a nice game but it'll be hard when there's someone associating me with them when I've seriously spoke not 1 word to them. I hope you go as soon as Bob Dawg mentioned, seriously... If you have a crush on me, you can just say it, for real!

[John Cochran]

Yo, I have a crush on you. Obviously.
