We're probably going to win the challenge, so I'm sabotaging my times by about a second so I don't accidentally post first and have to calculate the score, but it still looks like I'm trying.
If we lose, Colby or Greg will go home. I'm not concerned. Greg has the potential to be one of the best social players in the game, but he's making it obvious he hardly cares about this game. Colby's a newbie who is trying too hard strategically to be comfortable. What he needs to do if he wants to stay is score points in the challenge. Not try to recruit a majority alliance on the tribe.
Ready for round 2.

Solid effort there Russell. What is Colby doing exactly? Just offering alliances to everyone? And what do you mean by your comment about Greg?

In our first conversation, Colby said something along the lines of thinking I was an honest guy, being nervous about the vote if we lost, and wanting to recruit other players into an alliance with us so we'd have the numbers. He then proceeded to ask me how much I've talked to each individual on tribe, which I answered honestly, so he's probably running to everyone I said the best things about trying to get an alliance going. He's just really annoying, and since he didn't do anything helpful in the challenge, no one is going to care about him enough to align with him. They should just fake-align with him like me to calm him down.
Greg joined our tribe's group chat for the challenge last night, said a few words, and left. Sarcastic comments were then made about how much he contributed to the chat and the challenge for our tribe. I know from other games, he has the potential to be a good player. But in this game, I get the impression that he isn't focused at all.
I like Richard the best on my tribe. We share a common love for the show LOST and have similar opinions on it. It's frustrating trying to talk to Bob because his responses are slow and overly simple. And I guess Chicken and Gary are decent, but they still seem pretty bland to me. During the challenge, my conversations with everyone were horribly repetitive and basically consisted of us saying, "Great round! Let's keep it up!" every thirty minutes. This group's going to be killer in the posting challenges, but I don't see myself getting along with them well enough to stick with them later in the game.
