Round 1 Discussion

Sad faces just mean he's spamming question marks. 3 question marks turns into .

You see what I mean when I say that everyone on this tribe is somehow being blindsided all at once? Everyone has a totally different agenda and no one is talking to each other. This tribe is the best powder keg I have ever seen and the next 24 hours should be absolutely glorious to watch.

Horse and Robbie want Chio gone because he's an annoying memer. Despite being the ones on the outs, they seem to act like Chio and Link are the ones on the outs.
Robbie just generally hates link and chio.
Link wants Robbie because he's #CourageStrong, and robbie is the least active.
We don't really know what Riju wants, but she's close with link so she would probably follow him. She seems to only dislike horse.
Chio doesn't like that Riju is #couragestrong, and wants her dead. But apparently he likes link.
Oaki and Sidon are fangirling over blindsiding Link, 'cause they think he's the kingpin and they don't like his idea of making a 5-person alliance that excludes robbie/horse. Also they want control for themselves.

All they really need to do is talk to Robbie and Horse, because Robbie/Horse are both down to target both link.

Chio is going to be a major factor in whether or not this whole thing blows up, because he hates riju and is close with oaki, so if he pushes riju too hard that will probably give robbie/horse the push they need to go all in on targeting him and cause fireworks to go off.

Would Kass' best move been to just let patricia die so nobody sees how good his position is?

It's not that hard to play good when there's just one guy who nobody talks to that you can just vote out and be done with

OH WAIT ALL THREE TRIBES HAVE ONE OF THOSE

If we're making hamfisted connections to theme, I think Courage people in general probably are inclined to underestimate how threatening they are to other people and overestimate how safe they will continue to be moving forward. When you're a social person, you're used to feeling connected and safe, so you think you have the agency to make moves, but you also don't see yourself as as big of a target as other people see you (because you aren't interacting with yourself and seeing how social you are), so it's easy to want to do things because you think you have the power to do them and you don't realize that it will only increase your threat level because you don't see yourself as threatening.

I don't necessarily think this will play out, and Sidon and Oaki will probably survive this tribe, but people are already talking about at least Oaki as a potential threat, and doing shit like making a huge move at the very first TC is going to do the opposite of help that perception.

Meanwhile with Power, idk harder to psychoanalyze tbh, but Kass definitely has some weird power complex and need to exert his will over others.

And the Wisdom people are actually being smart. Who'd have thunk?

He was just shy of it until his score got better and Kohga changed to advantage. I'm curious how that'll play out.

Hilariously Revali has no idea he almost died, he thinks he didn't need immunity. And then Kass is losing his shit over the one person who needed to not win it, having it.
