Hey Brendan,
Welcome to the Jellal tribe! I’m excited to see you all out here in Morocco. My name is Gary, and I'm one of the hosts for this season. From time to time we will be sliding into your confessionals. Our job as hosts is to help answer all of your questions, and drill you in confessionals to get the strategic gears in your brain turning.

Let’s start by running through the other members of your tribe. Who gave off the best first impression? Who gave off the worst? Are there any players here that you think will be an easy boot when you attend your first tribal? Do you think that three tribes is more difficult to manage than the typical 2? Do you think the smaller starting tribes will be beneficial for your game? Any other thoughts you’d like to share about the other tribes?
That’s all I’ve got for now. Enjoy getting to know your tribe, and let’s get this show on the road! Go win this thing!

So I've talked to everyone on my tribe but Angela. In terms of first impressions, Kellyn seems really well organized and a good thinker and Sebastian seems like a good guy. I'm hoping to work with them moving forward. Donathan and Chelsea give me the vibe that they're good people but not super sure of what they're doing. And for some reason my convo with Chris has been really stiff and awkward so that's not a great sign. But Angela not being here isn't a great sign for her either

[Brendan]

Okay update: Kellyn formed an alliance with herself, Chris, Chelsea, and me, henceforth known as "The Cool Kids". They want to target Donathan should we lose the challenge. Idk how I feel about that, Donathan seems like a nice guy. I think Chris or Kellyn should be the actual target as they seem far more on top of things and in control but I'm don't want to stick my neck out for the first vote. If Sebastian logs on beforehand I'll talk to him about it but I don't love the immediate dynamics of The Cool Kids. I definitely feel like the 4th in the alliance, which is not the ideal place.

The tuareng twist seems complicated but could work in my favor as it could allow me to hurt Chris and Kellyn without being caught doing so. I'm glad for 3 tribes as it gives my tribe a better chance at not losing.

Oh also I volunteer to be Tuareng

[Brendan]

I'm an idiot who is illiterate. Tuareg. I volunteer for tuareg not tuareng

[Brendan]

I'm extremely angry someone took my vote. I have to rely on the cool kids now and hope they save my ass
