Tribal Council IX: Ngalu

[Amanda Kimmel]

Well, you're all here together! Get used to it.


1) Voting deadline will always be posted below the TC. It's typically about 24 hours. Remember: No late votes are accepted.
2) You are to make a voting history topic in your confessional. ALL VOTES must be placed in that topic - if they aren't, they won't count.
3) If you want to change your vote, you may, just please edit the SAME post - I don't want to have to decide which parchment to use. You don't need to tell me you changed it, I'll look at the deadline.
4) If you have a reward to play, do it in the SAME POST as your vote. Edit it in if it changes! Also remember - this season, you may only play one reward per round. You may play a multiplier on another person's vote, but if they play a multiplier too, yours will be refunded. Multiple nullifiers will not be refunded; two vote changers used on the same vote will CANCEL each other.
5) With your vote, please state a reason WHY you are voting the way you are. At least one sentence, doesn't have to be spectacular.
6) To ensure your vote counts, you MUST answer your question here at Tribal and write at least one confessional for the round. You HAVE to do this to show WHY you deserve to be here.
7) You MUST use this parchment if you are able to:

IMMUNE: CHELSEA, DD

Same questions to all 11 of you!


1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?


Votes will be due at 11:15 pm Eastern tomorrow. Good luck!

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

Response: Well in Colleens case she met every expectation I had of her coming into this so she didn't disappoint. I think that's really all I have to say about it because its not really worth saying much more.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

Response: I think that's a good thing that you point out Amanda. All of us did play in AS2 and someone from AS2 will win this game. I think it's a big deal in terms of people are always going to remember AS2 and the relationships that were formed there, but they also know that this is a new game and new things are going to happen. I think new alliances are probably forming as we speak.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

Response: My vote is completely based on numbers. I think everyone here knows that I didn't play last time personal and I didn't come here again for a 3rd time to change my strategy. People should really think about the moves they make here because if they make a move at the wrong time its going to end up screwing them. So my vote is completely based on voting for someone who should leave now, not someone that can be voted for later. The Jury also has no barring on my vote tonight.

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

It definitely impacted the game. Those two were a strong pair and now they're just gone. It certainly is strange for me, just because I've spent so much of the game playing with them. It has its pros and cons though.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

I don't think AS2 impacts this game too much. So much has changed since then, and things are still changing now. The game is likely going to be very volatile.
[Parvati didn't!]

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

On what's best for me. And no, the jury doesn't really play into this decision.

[Parvati Shallow]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

(Yawn)

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

AS2 is a huge deal, since I totally played there. Every single thing I did in that game is going to have a massive impact on my alliances, and how the rest of this game shapes up.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

Jury never really plays into it for me. There's no point basing your decisions on the jury, because the odds of being the person who winds up facing it are so small.

[Pimpthony Robinson]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?
It did not impact the game that much, it just uglified the board. It feels like the pre-merge phase to this game was quite short.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?
Most likely new alliances are forming, everyone knows. Former games are a big deal in general, since people will base decisions partly on them.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?
I don't know on what I'm basing it yet. I never really play with the end game in mind, let alone jury, so no.

[Tracy]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?
They were going to be leaving early anyway so it's not a big deal, just less immature shit to listen to coming out of their mouths. They really were the most immature duo I've seen in a game ever and I've played with them before so I was kind of shocked. I'm just happy to see Candey gone and a bit surprised with Colleen.


2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?
Probably. Not sure lol


3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?
Hmmmm I don't know if Jury ever really comes into play with my decisions. I play this game the way it's meant to be played and the jury will always be the same. There's no way to make everyone happy all the time.

[Brenda Lowe]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

— It made things speed up. For all of the nothing that happened on AS2 Tribe all premerge, it made even more nothing happen. Yay.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

— Haven't seen many people online tbh so if they are sucks to be me. AS2 is not a big deal. Though I do pride myself in being the earliest boot left Also with Yau. Yay earlyboot Asians!

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

— No, it does not. The vote will be whatever looks like a better move in the long run. It has nothing to do with Jury.

[Yau-Jess]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

The situation is unfortunate but it rocketed all of us left, two spots forward in the game, so there is not much cause to complain in my books.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

AS2? Whats that, oh the game I got shanked in early.... For me it obviously does not play in cause almost all of my tribe sent me backing before I could blink. People who were close or enemies in AS2 raise an eyebrow but for the most part Survivor is ALWAYS changing and anything could happen.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

I honor my word and hope that is enough. Jury is just beginning and we do all face each other in the end but if you focus on that alone, you will end up on the jury itself.

[Misty Giles]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

~ I was surprised to see them gone just like that. As for the impact of their decision, I don't think it will give a big impact to the game

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

~ I'm not a person who hold grudges against other people, so anything happened during AS2 is a past for me. As for the new alliances, I don't know about other people. But I don't make any new alliances.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

~ Yeah. Last season, my relationship with the jury was pretty bad and it really affect my gameplay and decision in this game so hopefully it will be better this time.

[Austin Carty-Gonzalez-Angarita]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

It probably affects myself and Danielle more than others left in the game. There was always a chance to have 3 of us at merge instead of 2, but one person doesn't always make a difference. I felt thhose girls were classier than their exits made them out to be.

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?
Austin didn't play in AS2 but at this point I don't really think alliances, at least with me, are being forged.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

I most likely won't make the finals so the jury doesn't really play into my vote. At this point it's about staying alive.

[Chelsea Meissner]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

At least we no longer have to hear the term "Boom. Toasted."

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

AS2 isn't a big deal, that was a separate game from this and I don't think those relationships are really a huge deal.

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

You have to base your vote on what's best for you.

[Heidi]

1) How did the two babies quitting last round impact the game? What's being felt because of it?

Less drama threads and smiting, thats about all. I really have no feelings about it, I didn't know them other than what I saw on the boards and from that I didn't really want to know them either

2) Now that you're all together, are new alliances forming? Is AS2 still a big deal, since all of you played there?

If new alliances are forming I don't know about them. AS2 isn't a big deal for me at all, that was a different game and I don't plan to play this one based on anything that happened there

3) How do you base your vote tonight? Does the jury at all play into this?

Jury does not have anything to do with my vote tonight. I am voting based on what I think will help me down the line

[Amanda Kimmel]

I'm here! Sorry for the wait, was just doing some bonding.

Give me a little to post results. I gotta catch up.
