Not doing a garnet deposit. No offense, but both you and Nyx are the only 2 people who have explicitly lied to me in this game. When Mas first started this game, you gave me false information and tried to con me out of the game. In this incarnation, Nyx tried to con me out of the garnets we agreed to (for a match I could've easily won, but let her have it), and last round she lied to me about her character.
So there is absolutely no way I'm trusting either of you with garnets. If you wish to have Switza or Rachael hold the deposits, I'll agree to it - but not you or Nyx. You and Nyx are both great players, and clearly love this game, which I respect. I like you both, and understand deception is part of the game. But it is a game, and as it stands, you are the only 2 people who have explicitly lied to me. As it stands, Sam and Modica are my targets, since they're largely inactive and are impossible to work with. So, I'll make you this counter offer - I will be bidding $5 on watermelon this round, and if either you or Nyx explicitly lies to me or tries to screw me over again, you will both also become impossible for me to work with... If you want to do the garnet deposit thing, I'll go along with it - but someone else holds the deposit, not you.

However, you should understand - each and every tries to survive. Each person has his own technique. You are one of the strongest opponents in the game, and I appreciate a chance to play with you.

Yeah, no offense was meant. I think you're brilliant, especially for being so young. Complete respect. And that is the game. But what Nyx especially needs to understand is that doing that also makes you a valid target to people. Pete and I tried to nicely get that across to her in the thread she was laying out the plan to target Tara - in a thread Tara could've signed on and seen at any moment - while also kind of outing your entire alliance to me (I haven't told that I picked up on that, don't worry). heh.
Lying may be part of the game for some, and deception/omitting information is definitely necessary each round. But when you overtly lie to someone multiple times - lies that they see are lies immediately - it does create a target on the person lying, which is an equally valid aspect of gameplay (if you anticipate someone will lie to you each round, there's no sense in trying to work with them).
This round, the only way for you and I to win is to trust each other and both bet $5. If either of us goes back on that, we both lessen our odds of winning (and destroy the possibility of pulling this off next round). There's no reason to make it more than that.

Hey. so, all of the above aside (lol, sorry), you've proven to be a great player. Should be a fun Death Match. I didn't give any garnets away, so if you win, you'll have a ton - seems fair that the winner get them. Goodluck!
