It feels like I was playing a strong game until the popularity twist, to where it would have been a mistake to force rocks at F6 just for the sake of rocks because I could have had a good path to the end and I'd be screwing with it just to be a memelord. But now I'm so exposed as a threat that just clawing my way to F6 and forcing rocks may actually be my optimal move to create a post F6 environment that I still have a chance to move forward in. This is what I get for putting that energy out into the universe.
On the other hand, somehow I came through that twist playing carrier pigeon for various communications between cut off people in order to orchestrate a blindside on the player I was perceived to be ride/die with and still wasn't targeted or even at risk of being bounced by an idol play in the following round. As far as I can tell I have the most rupees and no one is paying them any mind, so I'm in a good spot to utilize them if they're more than just a clever trolling mechanic. I have Kass's vote steal, the two half idols from exile somehow remain completely secret and there isn't even any chatter suspecting I would have been given something there. I'm still in a strong position, I just can't really hope to stay under the radar anymore. Although I'll still try to keep as low a profile as I can.
Kohga - explicit F2 agreement, half idol bros
Urbosa - implied F2 agreement, wisdom bros
Revali - assumed F2 agreement carrying over from explicit F3 w/ Horse, #TeamWinner bros
Kass - assumed F3 with Kohga, no more conflicting loyalty w/ Patty off the board
Sidon - implied closest remaining ally w/ Horse off the board
Oven & Oaki - incredibly they could both also be looking at me as among their best options to move forward with
Returning Player - More bad possibilities than good, given my strong connections with most players still in the game it is almost certainly in my best interest for any new Returnee to be shown the revolving door immediately
