I feel like if you think too much about the first vote, you're doing it wrong. It's way too early in the game to decide who's going to impact your game strategically, therefore I think a lot of it based more on communication than strategy, then you just pray to the gods you made a good shot in the dark.

So far my time in the game has been outrageous, curious and interesting? I mean it's been a lot of people in a different twist I've yet to have experienced. I've played these games for like a really long time. So many different variations. I mean this has been outrageous to say the least and I am very curious to see where things go and I just find it extremely interesting how things are panning out.
When I write this I don't know who I am voting out, actually. People have been throwing names out there so far and I mean no one has said one hundred percent confirmation yet who we want. To the people who's names who are coming up I mean I think it's just a matter of the first round scramble? In the end of the day it's round one and no one wants to ruffle feathers or to cause a scene. You don't want to take someone out and piss off people, take out the wrong person because a majority says DO IT! It's a matter of just like tribe unity... I guess? Like we're not a permanent tribe but I mean we all want to appease each other I am sure. So in the end we're going to do what the majority wants Im thinking. So m advice is stay in the majority, it's where its safe.

How have you been coping with being the oldest person in the game? Do you think you're at a disadvantage being surround with a lot of 20somethings? Explain.
I'm the oldest? I hadn't noticed...  Seriously though, it's not something I have to "cope" with. I mean, sure, my birth certificate says I'm 48 years old, but if anybody is particularly affected by that fact then they're doing it wrong. I'm not 48, I'm whatever age I feel like being. I don't have to cope, and so obviously, it's no disadvantage. See, I don't spend my leisure time with people my own age, because for the most part they're boring as hell. People my age are married with children, working hard for their impending retirement, struggling to make house payments, worried whether the kids will ever come by to visit... screw that. The things I like to do with my life are dominated by people half my age. 20-somethings, as you put it. That's where you'll find me. So no, unless someone in this game is so hung up on the idea of age that they refuse to see who I am, I don't think it's any kind of disadvantage at all.

Jeffy: With this Caste System put in place, how different will this game be from your traditional Survivor game? Explain. Because of the ever changing nature of the 'caste system' this game is COMPLETELY different than traditional survivor. Instead of trying to create really solid bonds with lets say, 6 other people that are on your tribe, you now have to try and create bonds with 20 other people, because you never know how you are going to score in a challenge and who is going to be on your tribe. For me this is going to be the hardest change, because as much as I love getting to know other people, 20 others is a handful, and sometimes it hard to balance talking to everyone and doing other stuff in life.
Its a very big 'what-if' because like I said, you are never fully going to be aware of who is on your tribe UNTIL you are set to go to tribal council, and at that point, if relationships are already made, your coffin may be. So overall, the twist is scary. VERY scary!

Brenda: You come from a gaming community much different than proboards. How have the first few days in the game been for you? Explain. It's a little different to say the least eh? My first few days have been hectic to put it mildly. It's like being thrown into the deep end of a swimming pool, while holding bricks and being told you're on your own. It took a little bit of time to get fully comfortable with this board and I think I've adapted to this quite well, the social side of the game took a little longer, in that I've never played a game where I had to be social (or to this extent) so it took some getting used to. The first day was overwhelming, but now it's actually quite enjoyable.  |

I actually enjoyed the first challenge. I'm glad it wasnt some lame 5 minute thing but it actually took some time and just because I didnt know the trivia I wasnt fucking since we also had to do pictures. My vote tonight is based on what is best for me and my other tribe-mates moving forward. Its a tough decision, and no one is really stating who they are going to vote for. Who knows whats going to happen tonight!

Jermaine: Feeling vulnerable tonight being a winner and sitting here at Tribal? Explain. What do you think of the group of people who ended up on this tribe with you? Pleased? Explain.Oh lordyyyy! I most certainly do!!! The easiest and most obvious move would be to go for the returning player so im expecting people to go with the obvious since it is only the first tribal. As for the group of people I ended up with, I think I got a real fun, interesting group. Just look at them! I am pleased to be with people whom I can actually communicate with and I feel are willing to at least give me a chance. Nobody likes to frozen out so early on
