Here is where I'm going to fill you in on what I think of everybody that I've talked to so far and I'll update it in the next few days as I get to talk to everybody
Adam Gentry
I've played with Adam before although I don't believe he knows that. I haven't really given away too much as to who I am and I don't know if I really intend on it either. Adam and I have gotten along very well in games in the past and the conversation I did have with him also went well. We didn't talk about the game a lot other than the fact that we hoped we were both on the same tribe. Of course almost everybody will say that to you this early in the game just to make conversation and to make it seem like they're actually interested in aligning with you in case it does happen.
Parvati Shallow
I talked to Parvati for a little bit and she seems really nice. She's definitely somebody that is easy to talk to, which is hard to come by at times in games like this. Her and I decided that dinosaurs must have been gay and that's why they became extinct. She agreed that she should sell that idea to all the science textbooks. We didn't talk about the game a lot but it's a little too soon to be doing that too much. Baby steps with this early in the game.
Chad Crittenden
Chad and I are your standard pre-game alliance. We have played numerous times in the past and at times don't see eye to eye but we always have that one common goal: to get to the end and win. That's probably why we get along so well. Even if he can be a total dumbass at times. We have already dubbed our alliance the "Gimp Alliance." I'm sure we may come up with a catchier name along the course of the game.
Misty Giles
I have also played with Misty before but in the last game I played with her I didn't talk to her a whole lot. Then again I wasn't even half as interested in that game as I was this one. Misty's really nice and easy to talk to most of the time. She's already admitted to me that she's never played this series before. And told me she's from Malaysia. I lied and told her I was from Ohio just in case she remembered me if I told her where I was really from.
NaOnka Mixon
I haven't had too much of a conversation with Nay. Her and I have sent a few messages back and forth on the board and she seems like she's trying to publicly play the part of the character that she's chosen but behind the scenes she's not like that all besides just typing the way Nay talks. She seems like a good competitor and at least easy to carry on a conversation through PMs but we'll see how it goes when she actually logs into AIM and starts talking. She said she was going to be logging on but she hasn't yet and I'm leaving soon since I have to get up at 6:30 for work
Burton Roberts
Burton seems alright. Kinda boring when you first start talking to him and he's slow to respond which makes me think he's anti-social or talking to everybody at once. Considering the fact that nobody else is really talking right now it would have to mean he was in another game besides this one. I just found out that he's probably 18, just out of high school and doesn't have much of a social life since he admitted that he doesn't have much to do lately that determines weekdays from weekends. Probably why he doesn't talk much, he has nobody to practice his social skills on. And he just used the word 'alas.' I don't think many people in their twenties even use that word let alone an 18 year old.
