Come on in, guys! Behind each of you is a torch, dip it in and get fire. In this game, fire represents your life. As long as your torch burns, you stay in the game; if your fire's gone, so are you. THE RULES: 1. Voting deadline is typically about 24 hours, however there will sometimes be an exception. Read the deadline at the bottom for the official time - no late votes will be accepted! 2. If you're playing a reward, please state so in the same post as your vote. 3. Please make a voting history thread and place all of your votes in that thread. If you wish to change your vote, feel free to do so! Please edit the SAME post so I know which parchment to use and everyone knows who you voted for when confessionals open. I will check votes at the deadline for the sake of posting them, so you don't need to tell me that you changed it. 4. When casting your vote, please state a reason WHY you are voting for that person. Doesn't have to be anything spectacular. 5. In order for your vote to count, you MUST answer your question here at Tribal and write at least one confessional for the round. Neither has to be anything fantastic - just do it. I will be a bit flexible with this early in the game, but later on I won't be. 6. FOR THIS ROUND, YOU ARE CASTING TWO VOTES. Please cast them in the same post. Please give reasons for both of them. I will be doing one massive vote reveal, and the two highest vote-getters get snuffed. 7. Please use the parchment! Continually not doing so will make you look too lazy to be an All-Star. The parchment:  IMMUNE: JEN, ANTHONY
SELF-VOTING: Sash, Angie Since this is the first round, three questions for everyone to answer: 1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself? 2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes? 3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy? Votes are due at 11:30 PM Eastern tomorrow (Friday). Good luck everyone! |

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
I think that a massive TC this early will help clear out the inactives! Which is my biggest pet peeve in ORG's!!
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Absolutely!
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
I think eventually we will be put on separate tribes and the twists will keep coming. Strategy isn't really there yet... Too early, lol... I think... {{{shrugs}}}

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?I am a HUGE fan of funky twists and turns of Survivor or any reality series in the ORGing world. My strategy is to listen to what the masses of this cast are leaning towards, and weed out those who don't seem to be lighting their torches with any pizazz!!!
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Challenge performance is a huge key in this game. Loyalty is a big strategy of Survivor but so is working with people who are fighters, who want to be here and do well. If someone cannot muster the time to even give reason why they cannot do the challenge, then why should they get to fight for a better placing over someone who did well. I know down the road this changes as the cast gets smaller but at the beginning of the game ANYTHING is possible!!
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
Survivors who think to many moves ahead in the game usually do not make it far because they forge to focus on the NOW!! Deception Valley is DEFIN. curious and I hope Jen and Anthony have fun. I suspect many twists and turns this game and am excited for the ride!.

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
Well, im sure it will show how much trustful people can be this early. And its going to make things harder to survive. I mean, sure there are a lot of people to target, but there is also a lot of votes casted!
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Probably, people defenitely want to have strong tribes so maybe weaker players will be targetted. However, we dont know if there is ever going to be tribes so maybe some people might want to get rid of threats? Pretty unlikely, but shouldnt be discarded as an option.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
If i'd knew what the future hold i wouldnt be sitting here. I'd probably be laying around in some remote luxury island owned by myself.. xD

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
Just trying to get rid of the dead weight in this game, and hopefully not get voted out myself.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Definitely. I want people who want to play in this game.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
Not too sure. I don't think we can plan too much into the future at the moment since we don't even know who will be split into which tribe or if we will ever be split into tribes. Too many twists and turns to account for in this game.

It doesn't change much. Weed out the ones who aren't contributing before you get to the real challenging votes.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Definitely.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
The future holds ice cream and tons of glitter. I'll take each day as it comes.

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
I don't think this massive tribal will be that much different from regular first round's tribal councils. It's just more people, and perhaps a tad more chaotic.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Yeah I think so. I don't think a first challenge says too much about people's overall challenge performance, but not doing a challenge may be an indication of someone's activity level.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
I'm thinking there will be tribes. However, I thought this challenge was going to be for team captains or something. Hence, I'm probably completely wrong. It's probably more efficient to just take things day by day.

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
Well, it certainly is a change from the expected, which is good I guess, it keeps people on their toes.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
I, uh, don't think I can say much here, considering my performance in the challenge.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
Well, I haven't got a clue.

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
It is definitely an interesting dynamic. Definitely makes everyone more social so they talk to formulate a vote for this tribal council.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
This vote should actually be really simple. To make it fair, there were two people who didnt attempt the challenge at all, I honestly thought the winners would be team captains so I wasn't extremely worried about the challenge, little did I know, assuming gets you nowhere.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
Well, you never know what is going to happen. There might be tribes, there might not be tribes who knows.

And, I just read the challenge and saw that you had a personal reason Angie, so I take back my comment about the 2 people, and its now the 1 person.  makes the vote a bit harder now. ;p |

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself? Well, there's two ways to look at it. One could be that there's less of a chance to get voted because Sash didn't attempt and alsooo there's just more people to vote for, but the other could be that there's more people voting and if the target's on you, it'll be a hell of a lot harder to save yourself. 2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes? Not too much, obviously. I didn't try as hard as I should have. 3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy? I think it holds awesome stuff |

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
It may be a little chaotic since there's going to be 36 votes and 18 people voting, but I don't think it's going to be that bad. We have one easy vote at least.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Of course, especially this early in the game.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
The future can hold anything, especially with this first round being so crazy.

A clarification:
I got this over PM, and from whom will remain anonymous:
The answer to this is the latter - you have to vote for TWO people this round, since two people are leaving. You may NOT cast two votes for one person.
Sorry for not making that clear!

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
Well, I can breathe easy with immunity, I think my strategy with so many people voting is to just go with the majority.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
I think so! Like some people said so early in the game we don't have a lot to judge on for voting except challenge performance.
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
I think in the near future we will be divided into 2 tribes, I can't wait to see who is going to be on which tribe!

1. How does this massive Tribal Council play into your voting strategy? How about saving yourself?
With so many choices it could be anybody... So if I do go I'm hoping it's like a 2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 vote.
2. Will challenge performance be reflected upon your votes?
Yea... *cough*SASH*cough*
3. What do you think the future holds? How will this play into your strategy?
I'm gonna wait until we have tribes before I start thinking strategy...
