A few questions...
1. Can we give our Change and Secret to other players?
2. If we do give our Change or Secret to another player, does that count as using it? For example, if I give Misty my Change, can I still use the Secret or not?
3. What happens if everyone offers $1 for every fruit, every round? Who goes to the Death Match then?

Also, per Lukas' question in the thread:
4. Can we use multiple of the same item? For example, if I were get Secret from 2 other people, and had 3, could I use 3 Secrets?

Everyone can only use either of them once. They can't use both items. 2. No exchanging so this question is invalid. 3. If everyone has the same total, the person with the most garnets get to choose who goes to the death match 4. Has been answered. This scenario is not valid

1) How have you found the first 2 rounds of the game so far? They've been fun. It's funny, though... 1st Season, the challenges were really about challenges. Yes, there was plotting, but it was all strategic. This time around, Lukas and Nyx have introduced a little drama... not much, definitely not IMDb-level drama. But it's still there. So there's the issue of attacking the social angle beyond just strategic/alliance-based plotting. Needless to say, I'm fed up with both of them. 2) What do you think about Tara not showing up for the Death Match? It wasn't entirely unexpected. I like Tara from the little I've seen of her on IMDb, but here... Seriously, you can't sign on to post one word ("moon", "star", or "sun") once every few hours? Oi. 3) What do you think about the pace of the game? I think it will improve from now on. The Death Match really wasn't that long... one day longer than usual, except nothing actually happened during that time. Aside from that, the pace is going well. 4) What do you think of the Main Match? I actually admire Sam's move to screw over Cherry and Misty. I just hope she was actually playing, rather than her not even bothering to look at their thread. Heh. Overall, it's a surprisingly interesting match and the social dynamic of it is in full swing. I'm all for that. Very excited about this match. 5) Were you alrite with the allocation of fruits to all players? Yeah. I mean, none of the distribution was ideal for controlling the match, but that doesn't matter. Makes the challenge more interesting. 6) Any strategy for the game? I feel like that's been summed up in the various boards I have. 7) Tomcat, what do you feel about hearing Lukas mentioning you as someone to look out for? It really doesn't bother me. Lukas is smart, but he's also sloppy... he's not Mets, who is both smart and knows how to cover his bases/read people, and overall likable and a great guy (which is in itself threatening in these games). I'm really not concerned about going to a Death Match against him. The reality is that Lukas (between both attempts at this game) has lied to me a couple times, as has Nyx. I've kept information from them, and coordinated with Adam and Pete about what to share, but I haven't overtly lied to them. So it's a little hypocritical that Lukas is going on about how I'm the one not to trust, when he and Nyx are the people who have explicitly lied and tried to steamroll the entire thing without their alliance's input. Admittedly, I sort of did that with Cherry/Misty, or tried before Sam screwed them, to counter Lukas and Nyx. At this point, it looks like Pete will either win or tie with Sam, leaving at least one (if not 2) easy targets for whoever loses. And if Lukas/Nyx screw me over again, it gives me great justification to target them next round, which I've wanted to do anyway, but have tried to play nice. Honestly, I can't really blame Lukas for targeting me, since I was tentatively targeting him once inactives were gone - fair play... but I was targeting Nyx more, so this only changes things for me slightly and speeds up the process by a round or so.

I'm not trying to stir drama, honestly. I'm just trying to egg Nyx into challenging me to the Death Match, or vice versa justification. She's impossible to work with, there's absolutely no point in trying. Someone has to go against her, and everyone else is too afraid to. So what the hell, I'm giving it a shot.
I think last game we waited too long until Mets/Nat had the upperhand. Some of it is down to the luck of the challenge (read: whether or not I'm good at it). Nyx is very smart, and I wouldn't take a Death Match against her likely. But she also lacks the awareness, self-awareness, and ability to read people that Mets has. So I'm cautiously optimistic.
Sorry for ruining your game, but I honestly just can't stand Nyx. She has a sense of self-delusion that rivals *he whose name we dare not speak from IMDb*. It's driving me crazy having to play with her. I feel like this game has become less about the challenges and more about babysitting Nyx and making sure she's fed on time so she doesn't get cranky.

PS: I'm doing the no bid thing so that Adam/Lukas/Rachael get more money from it, thus putting them in the lead so she hopefully doesn't win. It might be too late for me to lose, sadly... But, next round.

(screw it, I'll play the challenge how it's intended... but next round I'm finding a way to play the challenge correctly and get Nyx to lose)
