WEEK ONE
I know you guys have been calling me to the DR for a while now, but beast mode has been busy. But I finally have some time to break things down for you. It was a fairly easy first week, and relationships are starting to take shape.
When things kicked off and we learnt about the twists, I knew that I needed to not get stuck in thinking I just had to work with Jupiter. This game isn't going to be that way for long, and votes are always going to come from other houses. And they will be the ones to nominate me. So I started talking to everyone I could. For the most part people seemed chill. Some more than others, some seemed odd, some were boring. So lets just get right into my first week impressions.
Like I mentioned in my DR questions, Britney gave off a very good first impression. It was so easy for us to chat, and she pointed that out fairly quickly. I always love people who pick Britney as a character, and they are always here to play. I would love to build an alliance with her, but I also know that I will have some competition. She's the type of player that has an impeccable social game, so I want to work with her now, but also keep every eye on her. Gotta make sure I am near the top of her list.
Convenient that these two are the first on the memory wall, because they are the two highest on my list right now. Nick is so easy to talk to, and we clicked so well. We are already sharing a lot of info with each other, and he told me about alliances that are being built. Nothing major, and its more laughable than anything. I guess Laura formed some group in an Audrey sort of fashion. Im not worried. The fact that Nick tells me stuff shows a lot. We will be working very closely together.
I do like Day, but sometimes I find it a struggle to keep the convo going with her. So I will need to work on that. She's really taking the alias thing to heart. When I asked what she did for work, she said poker dealer. So she's one of those. Which isn't a bad thing at all. I just have zero read on her right now.
Nothing bad to say about Casey, but also nothing good to say about him. Chats are ok, but lack a bit of life. I will keep talking to him, because I know that Nick seems to like him a lot.
Apparently she is going to be a big player this game??? That is so not the impression I got from our first talk. But Nick and Brit are saying she is already playing very hard. fine by me! I love when people play hard out of the gates, chances are they leave before jury, or are one of the first members. My friends are close to her it seems, so I am starting to talk to her more to try to get in there.
Who the fuck doesn't talk to people when they get nominated??? Good thing he won veto, or he was leaving.
Very sweet girl! We kicked things off quite well. Obviously not well enough for her to want me in alliances, but I really don't care. I don't think she is a very good player, and people will be able to use her.
Good enough impression of her. But apparently she is kinda of vapid. Laura was going to nominate her as replacement before people spoke up about just getting Ali out.
*see Jessie
Rachel is a lot of fun! I had some great chats with her, and I look forward to getting to know her a bit more. Another person who is in good with my friends. So chances are we will work together in some way.
Steve seems like a really really nice guy. I would love to work with him. Nick and I have been tossing around alliance ideas, and Steve is always in the mix. So watch out for a pairing here.
Very quick convo the other night. So no real impression right now.
My bro!!! Jace is fucking awesome, and we have so much in common. I love talking to him. Its strange that he doesn't pop up as someone everyone likes. Cause I just have such an easy time getting to know him. I will make sure he is in the mix as well.
Nice enough. But not many convos to base anything off.
And thats that!! No need to talk about Ali obviously. Im just trying to lay back a bit right now and get as much info as possible. I am not going to be the one to form any large groups. I know I will be getting info from high up people, so I will know whats going on, and know where I need to be.
