You may not want to waste your follow up on her but I'd be interested to know in which part exactly was she deluded when you just said this:
As for our boot order I think it would have gone Trin/MR - MR/Trin -
Kaylee and then possibly Selene if Kaylee actually the third to go there.
This one longer and I hate when people do this but lets break it down.
Let's just start with there ain't no respect here, and this the type of passive aggressive shit get under my skin. Be one or the other but not both. And if you being aggressive then don't claim like you're not.
Okay 1, I asked about the final round on Slutaco not this strawman tangent she gone on. But 2, those three girls
always going to be a target and a shield, Selene's plays to keep up the divide in Blue didn't
make them any more of a shield, just delayed when people could go for them. There were rounds there after the merge where those three were the safest in the game. That's not how a shield works
If anything, she made the entirety of both sides of Blue a shield *for* the Green three. Because we couldn't trust each other enough to target them. So we all forced to try ensure they on our side and not the other side of Blues. Thereby creating a situation where everyone is forced to let them get to F7. And when it gets to there, well then your hands are tied on every vote after that point and controlled by immunities
too. How easy it become now for Alice or Jess to immunity through four little rounds and make the end? This is not good play. So she creates a situation where they can't be targetted merge till F7, and then from F7 to F3 everyone's hands are tied again and now their fingers gotta be crossed too.
I can't know how long she last or I last in some alternate playdown, but either way she would be the one that outlasts Kaylee, and maybe Babydoll depending how things play out. And let's be honest she probably outlasts me too. And this shit about once the crack was made blowing it up? I talked about why she make the crack in the first place. Don't frame it like you picking up the pieces of someone else's mistake if it your own.
No fucking shit that's not what happened. This has about as much relevance as my little fantasy rundown post above this. Only thing it highlights here is how fucking flawed this amazing plan was in the first place, and how soon it fell to shit and she lucky to be the one dead cert flop fish from that trio or she'd be out and probably Babydoll sticks around instead.
This is just like more conjecture about how the plan had worked how great it would have been. Except that it didn't.
Like what even is this paragraph? For one, here is another plan that didn't work. Just for the one round this time. You can't take credit for designing a grand plan that did not and was not going to ever work.
Of course Nostromo going to make their own plans for this particular TC, and to think the right thing the push was targeting the girl that's been over there working an extra round of connections is the right call and feasible is madness. And then to swallow it and run with it even when she hearing back from her big insider Mother Russia that it's on Storm, and from a few more of us saying the same thing. I mean fair enough if she'd been in on the Storm vote, or even if she and the two Cherry voters had gone the same way. Like wtf was the me/Cherry split? Covering her bases in case Blue said Cherry then went me or said me then went Cherry? This is just sloppy play now.
I don't even fucking know with this. Like, I was under the impression (which does now seem to not be right), that the shit "I was up to" on the original Sulaco is the same shit anyone else was doing. Making bonds and talking with lots of people and keeping myself in a place where I had enough links to keep myself safe. And that the bussing of Noxy came after my mutiny because finally some excitement and now you can push a name around knowing it no longer going to bite you. But I guess not and it was happening earlier than that. Hell I quite liked Selene if not for her ridiculously long essays and too much RL shit that made me uncomfortable to the point of putting a probably accurate ID guess in my confessional. No I don't want to talk about your cats or your family - I don't even want to talk about my timezone except that it unavoidable. We can talk RL without specifics thanks.
Except so now while I was thinking we had some nice boots lined up in Trin and Mother Russia for when we eventually lost one, it seems like the shit I was up to is exactly the shit Selene was acting on. So fuck that.
This is no fact, this is all perception. And it's an foggy muddled perception.
She outlasted me. But lol at outplaying
Mother Russia, now there's a girl that outplayed me.
I mean, I was happy to not vote for her here and just send it Xena's way with an outside chance of Mother Russia. I do think Russia played a strategically better game than Xena, and I do think Xena played a better social game than Selene. But now I feel like she's riled me up so much I'm actively campaigning against her and what the fuck does that say about her game? Maybe it's just me.
