Alright friends, it's time to get back in to Stranded and I'm very excited. I'll be posting in here whenever I feel like reading through everything and updating you all on how I feel about people in this game. Yay. This first post will be about Nauru (my faves castwise) and then I'll do others by post.
- Their board presences are really fun. I really like how Sugar made the "getting to know you" thread, and then Drew immediately comes in and is a smarmy little Drew It's good shit. Dale and flicka also really grabbed at me more than I'd thought they would've which is a pleasant surprise.
- Going down the line in confessionals, Dale's first. he's really good actually. It's a very solid confessional and since I'm not totally familiar with him, I'm liking him so far. I do find it funny that he's bashing Missy in his confessional too, which is especially funny. As of right now he's doing pretty well for himself and I can see him surviving in this tribe. His only neg is targeting Laura B which is a big no no
- Next is Drew. Maybe starting with Dale was a bad idea, but Drew's fun, in a different way. Drew is very excited to play which is good, and his personality matches the actual Drew, which I can appreciate. I find it cute that both Dale and Drew want to keep each other safe for the sake fo being partners, which it's like, totally not in their best interests for a little while.
- Flicka is someone I was always planning on watching and she's really bringing it which is fun. Audio confessionals are always fun, even if they do make for finding specific evidence a little difficult. (tangent: IDK, if I would do audio confeshes since I like to be able to look back on what I've written and go from there, but I can understand the value of them). alol, though the first thing about the confessional being about Lilliana I am so thrilled to see things pan on out with her, I just want her to get a bit more self-confidence and then things will be good.
- YASSSSSSSSSS my girl Laura B. For the record, she and I are good friends outside of this game and it's always fun to watch a friedn really play. I was told before hand that she was going to play up the midwestern mom things, which won't end well for her, but at least it'll be fun to watch. At least she's bringing it hardcore with confessionals. I'm thrilled she did well in the first puzzle though because she would probably be a target prettty soon if not for that performance. But hey, still rooting for her.
- I'm also really fixated on Liliana since they whole feud with Flicka. While she hasn't given us much to work with, there's a lot we can infer about her. She's doing alright socially, and she's on the same ground as Rocky so it seems, She's trying to be less cringey, but like, girl, it ain't that easy (speaking from experience). I'll keep my eye on her.
- Rachel is going to be lazy and that's really a shame for her, though maybe she lucked out? It seems liekthe vibe over here is that everyone is sending quicker shorter messages, which kinda lines up well for Rachel... though if she's really gonna try to glide by, I could see Laura being cutthroat and just dumping her when people start getting anti-Rachel. I guess we'll see what happens.
- Rocky is about what I expected. I guess he'll be ok, since he seems to be integrating himself decently well. IDK about him though.
- Sugar is cute and she's very excited. apparently she writes good confessionals? IDK, I guess we'll see about that. She seems to be doing decently well socially, which is a positive for her though. Her plans seem to revolve aroundbeing super tight to her initial tribe which like, if that even comes to fruition, that oculd come in to bite her in the long haul, but then again that's very far off.
