Traditionally, everybody posted like crazy. SPAM everywhere, I couldn't keep up, but I've learnt from past games that this doesn't mean a thing in regards to strategy and who survives over someone who doesn't post like crazy so I'm making no attempt to join in with the posting craze because I've no desire or time to post so much.
I spoke to a few people before the tribe division; Silas, Ozzy, Kathy, Alicia, James, Aras, Stacy & Tina. Silas messaged me first surprisingly saying he was happy I was chosen; I was pretty shocked but happy because of the latest Survivor we played together, I wanted him out at the first chance so I thought he'd have used this game for "revenge" ... fortuneately it looks like he doesn't play like that which is good for me.
From our messages I liked them all except for Aras. He's not much of a conversationist, he replied to one messsage and then stopped there which I didn't like, it was after I told him who I played as in his series though.
Everyone is friendly but I got on particulary well with Kathy. She makes an effort, she takes an interest in you rather than giving you one word responses like a lot of people cause they can't be arsed. Instantly because of that she was my favourite as yeah, I go into ORGs to win, no doubt about it but it's also nice to get to know the people, after all, there are 20 people in this game, I'm the only person here from my country, to me it's interesting to get to know the other 19 people, see how different, if atall, their country, lives are etc. I'd never let personal feelings get in the way of gameplay but the fact I was able to talk to Kathy so easily and vice versa, it was the start of a beautiful partnership.
