User blog comment:Nalyd Renrut/The Game: The Sequel - Day Thirty/@comment-1773274-20120401234848

The Game: The Sequel just ended, and throughout the course of the competition, I have been documenting everything that went on behind the scenes, much like Feds with his Countdown blogs. This is through my POV, I don't know everything!

Before The Game
Before The Game: The Sequel made its debut, I knew I needed to have an alliance. So, I got onto the IRC, and the one person I wanted to ask was currently in it. So I asked TDA15 if he wanted an alliance with myself, and he accepted. He was my strongest ally, and we were supposed to make the finals. MTDM So, how would you feel if I asked you that we can rocket through this game with an alliance? 22:26 TDAwesome15 Mkay 22:26 MTDM kk. 22:26 MTDM Want to rocket through this game with an alliance? 22:26 TDAwesome15 Sure 22:27 MTDM yay 22:28 MTDM kso 22:28 MTDM we need numbers? 22:28 MTDM Who should be an add-on? 22:28 TDAwesome15 We don't need any 22:28 MTDM kk. 22:29 MTDM This alliance is /secret/. 22:29

Day Three
When I found out TDA15 was eliminated, I was stunned, to say the least. I knew I couldn't go through The Game without a strong ally, so I once again headed onto the IRC to find another. MTDM solykiwaswondering what would you say If I proposed an alliance? ;) 19:46 Anne_MariaI 'd say bushaga barghun. 19:46 MTDM yes or no >.> 19:48 Anne_Maria Nuhz. 19:49 MTDM k jw 19:54 Bigez said no. What's going to happen now? He'll try to gather votes thinking I'm going around for alliances? When that thought came to me, I knew I needed another two-person alliance, so I asked Ryan. MTDM Hey, um. If I were to ask you if we can rocket through this game with an alliance, your answer would be? 19:59 DakotaMilton Sure. 19:59 MTDM kk. Want to rocket through this game with an alliance? c: 20:00 DakotaMilton k 20:01 MTDM yay, now we wait for tomorrow. :D 20:01

Eliminated: TDA15

Day Four
After seeing WM comment on the Day Four blog he might consider sending my ally home, I got scared again. Why's it always my allies!? I quickly headed onto the IRC to see if he wa there, and he wasn't. I returned an hour later, and sure enough, WM was there. MTDM Hai. 9:16 MTDM Who are you planning to vote for? Just wonderin'. 9:16 WebkinzMania tanooki. 9:21 WebkinzMania Simple choice. 9:21 MTDM Kay. 9:21 MTDM True, true. 9:21 WebkinzMania Tanooki, b/c he's been stirring up drama and putting up false information. 9:23 WebkinzMania Plus, he's in that BarBar alliance. 9:23 MTDM Mmhmm. 9:24 So I sent Ryan a memo to vote for Nook so he'll be eliminated. But I'm still a bit suspicious if WM's lying or not...

Then Nook called me, and every other Domination member, to the IRC. He asked me if I voted yet, I said no. He told me he voted off Ryan, and was trying to get TDN and NegativeNoah666 to vote Ryan out with him, assuming I'd do what he said and vote my ally out. He told me if I get the chance to try and get NegativeNoah666 and TDN to vote out Ryan, with a side-note of not to tell WM. Nook said he thought WM was going to vote him off, but he just told all his plans to me, someone in his target's alliance, and the one who also voted him out. So I went ahead and told WM. WM said that we still shouldn't trust Nook, even though I never have. If all goes through, Bigez should be the swing vote... and that's not good for me. What if he's told to vote Nook out and declines and tells everyone to get rid of me? All I have is hope. A little later, Nook asked me if I voted for Ryan, and I said yes.

A few minutes later, an "Anon Message" on Aimers' prediction blog popped up. “Tanooki told me that he wants to eliminate Ryan, so I have a few more people to convince in order to get him eliminated!” Tanooki said in #TDWIKI-CHAT that he would never vote Ryan out, because Ryan's his, quote on quote, "bestie." BarBar tried to help out his assumed opposite-teamed alliance member that the quote can be a lie.

Later, I returned to the IRC, and both CD-TDA and BarBar private messaged me asking who I voted for. I guess there was no harm in telling CD-TDA the truth, so I said Nook. But to BarBar, I just told him what he wants to hear: I don't know yet. I thought he was going to encourage me to vote Ryan out, but now I'm thinking he thought Nook never asked me yet; he was just trying to cover up their alliance. I asked both who they voted out, and both said they don't know yet.

Day Five
This is it. The day I find out if my ally will be voted out for a second time. I went on the IRC, and asked TDN who he voted for, and best came to best when he said NegativeNoah666. Even if NegativeNoah666 votes Ryan and Bigez doesn't vote, it'd still be a 3-2-1 vote, with Nook getting voted out.

Nalyd revealed both votes being 4-2-1, and I knew Nook was the only one to vote Ryan and NegativeNoah666 didn't vote. So best came to best, and (not to toot my own horn or anything) I seem to be controlling my team now.

Eliminated [Devastating Domination]: Nook (4—2—1) Eliminated [Lava Lamps]: Kota (4—2—1)

Day Six
After the voting results were posted, I commented on the Day Five blog the following: “''Lamps, I hope you didn't forget that BarBar, Codyfan and That Epic are in an alliance. Now that they have the numbers, they can beat you. If they vote Nduke or CD, it won't matter who you vote because Nduke or CD will be out.''” I tried to stir up drama, but I don't know if it'd work.

I went on the IRC to try to help with the captions, but apparently mine just weren't good enough. Later in the day, TDN, Bigez, Ryan and WM already thought of seven captions. Meaning, if we lose, it's either me or NegativeNoah666 for elimination. I was hoping my ally would pull through for me, like I did for him.

Day Seven
Well, best case scenario happened when my team won the challenge. But bad news is WM gets to pick who an Immunity Idol is going to. All I can hope for is he gives it to Ryan or I. He's obviously not giving it to NegativeNoah666 (or is he?), so it's down to the [insert alliance name here], Bigez and TDN to get that Idol.

Winner: Devastating Domination

Day Eight
I didn't do much today — just sat back and waited for the vote.

Eliminated: Codyfan1000 (4—2)

Day Nine
Bigez and I had the same answers. I saw BarBar commenting he already sent them in before being allowed, and I mentioned that to Bigez, who mentioned that in #tdwiki-chat.

Winner: Devastating Domination

Day Ten
Once again, didn't do nothing.

Eliminated: Nduke (4—1)

Day Twelve
Eliminated: NegativeNoah666

Day Thirteen
Oh gawrsh. A team switch... WM and BarBar are, once again, picking their teams. After seeing WM publicly saying he picked Ryan first, I was relieved...but I knew he'd pick Bigez and TDN, too. And BarBar will obviously pick his original team and/or alliance. Hopefully I get surprised and get picked by WM to be in his team...

“No, we pick one person to switch teams.” - WM I immediately realized I was still in the game, but I was on opposing teams with my ally... Then Nalyd posts the new teams, and WM lied entirely. Although Ryan and I are on different teams, we are on the different ones I've expected.

WM, Bigez, and Ryan completely used me, and once they thought they didn't need me anymore, they threw me away. Bigez said no to the alliance I offered. Saying no to an alliance usually means you're in one. Ryan really didn't care about my alliance with him, so I knew something was fishy. WM seemed to only care about the information I fed him. Now that I'm on the Lava Lamps, I need to get comfortable. I asked CD-TDA for a deal: If the Lava Lamps ever lose, we make a pact and vote one of the other two out. If we win every challenge till the merge, we have a final four deal. Why'd I do this? Because I'm obviously first on the chopping block being a new member.

Day Fourteen
I told TDN everything I'm assuming about WM, Bigez and Ryan.

Day Fifteen
Winner: Devastating Domination

...WHAT THE HELL. I GAVE A SUGGESTION WHY DID NOBODY SEND AN EMAIL.

Anyways, I met up with CD and told her to side with me and vote out BarBar. Why? The merge is soon, and Nalyd mentioned team captains get an advantage later on. CD told me it'd be a split 2-2 vote, and I agreed with her...but I didn't go down without a fight. I invited BarBar and CD to #lavalamps, and CD and I made sure that BarBar's going home by telling him to vote for That Epic, sending That Epic home in a 3-1 vote.

He told me he needed to talk to CD about it. A few minutes later, CD asked me if I had the Idol, and I knew BarBar was trying to vote me out. But CD assured me that he's voting off That Epic, sending the team captain home in a 2-1-1 vote, assuming That Epic will vote CD or I out.

I'm playing the game.

Eliminated: BarBar (2—1—1)

Day Sixteen
I brought up a proposal to CD that maybe we can throw the challenge and vote That Epic out of the game, and let Bruno and TDN side with us. But we both decided against it, since it'd be to risky.

Day Seventeen
Winner: Devastating Domination

I came onto the IRC, and Ryan encouraged me to vote out CD, thinking I'd still be his ally. I lied to him saying I did. Once Nalyd posted the votes, Ryan told me he didn't have to lie to me and how is he supposed to trust me now. I told him if I voted CD it would've went to tie and I couldn't take that risk. He believed me, and regained trust in me. I'm obviously his add-on, and he thinks I'm too oblivious to realize that.

Eliminated: That Epic (2—1)

Day Eighteen
Winner: CD

The merge. What CD and I have been waiting for. On the IRC, we reeled in TDN and Bruno, and we all made sure eachother voted out our first target, Ryan.

Meanwhile, Ryan PMed me asking me who I voted for. I quickly saw a memo from him saying "We're voting out Bruno," so I lied and said Bruno because he replaced me on the Devastating Domination. He asked me if he knew who WM was voting (so I'm assuming he secured Bigez's vote). I told him that WM won't talk to me. I said I'm The Game-wise mad at him for taking me out of his team, and Ryan said he forgot about that. He said we'll deal with all this drama later; first he "needs to know who everybody is voting for."

Day Nineteen
Eliminated: Ryan (4—3)

Ryan confronted me, calling me a backstabber.

Day Twenty
Ryan continued to call me [and TDN] a backstabber, because I was on his side. Aimers, last season's winner, respected my game move. Bigez, competitor this season, said you won't go far without backstabbing anyone.

Winner: CD

Day Twenty-One
Eliminated: WM (4—2)

A huge riot went down between myself and Ryan [and Bruno and WM]. More info can be found in the first comment on the Day 21 blog.

Day Twenty-Three
Winner: Bigez

Bigez memoed me to vote for CD if I actually want a chance to win, but he sent a second memo remembering that he has the sole vote. I told Bigez that I was thinking of blindsiding TDN. Bigez assured me he's voting for CD, telling me we could do that next time. I told him what he wants to hear, and I guess we made a final three alliance. But the thing is, I don't know if I'll go through with Bigez or TDN and Bruno...

Eliminated: CD (1)

Day Twenty-Four
Winner: Bruno

Day Twenty-Five
After Bruno won immunity, I knew I needed to stick with him and vote out Bigez. But I got really desperate and random.org-ed it, and ultimately voted for TDN. But now I don't know if I should take Bruno with me, or Bigez. Either way, I'm in the final two 'cause Bruno probably thinks TDN didn't vote, and Bigez thinks I'm with him all the way. I need to do what's best for me, at this point.

Eliminated: TDN (2—2)

Day Twenty-Six
Now I have no idea what's going to happen! I immediately regret my decision by siding with Bigez. Only time will tell what will happen!

Eliminated: MTDM

I hate you, time. :|

Day Twenty-Seven
I voted for Bigez because Bruno tried to get votes by thanking all Jurors (except Ryan) in his speech, and in my opinion Bruno was a coattail rider. (You know I love you, Bruno.)

Day Twenty-Nine
Winner: Bigez

Day Thirty
Good job.
