AFTER THE VOTE
OK, the first strike of the Seven Deadly Sins (7DS) was a success. And there will be a couple very frustrated folks, after the results of this Tribal. Jeffy, of course, but also Lexi, who's probably very scared right now, and Brookie, who's probably relieved... or won't be sure she wasn't voted out until sometime next week, when she finally asks what happened tonight. (sigh)
Now, about our name. I heard a rumor we were being called by Production the Magnificent Seven. First off, that's a pretty awesome name, but kinda, "y'know, it was obvious and shit". Which is why we as a group put our heads together and come up with a name that is ACTUALLY awesome:
That should be amusing for awhile.
7 would normally be an unmanageably large alliance, in most games, but with the (practical) lack of tribes, and things switching up each episode, I think we hit on the right number. And again, that credit has to go to Fei. She had these numbers all worked out before she even started talking to me. Smart girl, and one that I don't want lasting too far past F14 if I can help it. But for now, I'm happy to use her intellect to find the cracks I miss and to win her way into the Brahmin circle as often as possible.
Since I started:
Greg: pretty bright and definitely Fei's partner. He's probably more manageable than Fei is, but I'm a little suspicious that he and I don't talk unless I initiate the conversation. Hopefully it just means that he doesn't fear me. He should. My long term plans don't include him, right now.
Brenda: Her partner is Aaron, I think, but I'm fine with that. I'm getting closer to Aaron, and when it's time to dissolve the 7, Brenda and Aaron might be the tool to make that happen.
Ricky: He does what he does - makes himself the good guy. That's fine, I'm happy to let him play his game. We're loyal to each other, and that's what matters right now. I'm not going to waste a lot of time being the hero to people who might not be here when the jury starts to be selected (assuming there will even BE a jury). We trust each other, and that's good enough for me.
Nicole: SO easy to discount her. She's not very talkative, and people just forget she's there. Good for her. This is her strategy for the early game (even if it does come naturally), and I'm glad she's keeping safe. Still trusting her completely, but I'd like to have a better idea of who she's connecting with.
OK, and that's 7SD for you. It's short. I'll get more in-depth as time passes, I'm sure.
