Talked with Estelle, Gina Marie, Helen, and Rhian on AIM. Dixie a bit via PM...
So, a few nights ago, I managed to catch up with David and Joe. David and I didn't talk too much game, but I did share with him how I knew that the winners were all connected via a friendship with Jake (Mariah). This somehow transferred into me saying something about, "yeah I'm worried if a winner's alliance comes about that I'd be at the bottom of that totem pole." It really was me just kind of analyzing the cast with him, clearly since he was the FIRST person I talked to, I hadn't made any deals yet. Apparently, he felt otherwise (or is just trying to stir shit).
After talking with Estelle for a bit, she flat out asks me if I told people that we had a winners' alliance, because apparently David, Talla, and Andrew all approached her or heard something about her coming to me and proposing an alliance. God. People take one thing and turn it into a shit-show. Either way, the fact that Estelle was blunt with me made me very happy because, of all the winners, I DO wanna work with her most. And now, I know that David can't be trusted with any information. Sad... because I like the guy.
As for Joe, he apparently is happy to have the chance to play with me again. But I don't know if that means I can trust him.
Gina Marie, Helen, and Rhian all seem cool. I actually enjoyed Helen the most, but Rhian and I connected well. Gina Marie didn't have a lot of time for me to get a good read.
Either way, I think I have my first official alliance with Estelle, though everyone apparently is already assuming it's the case. Now we just gotta do damage control and throw people off our scent. Gonna keep David REALLY close, now that I know he's flapping his lips to whoever will listen. This could help me make sure that the right information gets shared out, while keeping the truth from him in the end. Oh David... you had to go and ruin our run as being best duo. Frankly, I'm just glad I found out now rather than later.
As for Andrew, I want to catch him and propose an alliance because I think I can trust him. And Talla will be aligning with everyone, I'm sure. Dixie is playing a "fun" game (which I found out it's Shadow), so I might be able to work with her too.
Here's to the game already starting, and I've only really been playing (on AIM) for the past hour or so. God, I just wanted round 1 to be easy.... Was that too much to ask?
