Your post was perfect  Haha, thanks. It's a tricky subject to dance around. Would it be appropriate for you to clarify what would and wouldn't lead to a reprimand? I think it's ridiculous that some people believe (or claim to believe) Hongchul's comment would have been singled out by you IF he had used garnets. What if he hadn't used garnets? We're still not allowed to claim we have so the line would be drawn at the same place. |

You'll have to explain the "secret likes" thing to me at some point  |

 It was inspired by Dongmin and Hyunmin hiding secret notes under books in season 3. Credit goes to Hongchul for starting it, and to me for figuring out what he was getting at! Basically it was a way of giving each other insights into our thoughts, without having to do so in front of everyone else. For example, Hongchul liked this post of mine: Why do I get the feeling I'm going to be a citizen in all three rounds and not get to have as much fun with this  I wrote it in the second round, but he liked it in the third. This let me know he believed that I was a citizen. I had already convinced myself that Hongchul and Ahyoung were citizens and that Eunji and Sunggyu were criminals. When Hongchul suggested he would select a jury of himself, Ahyoung, and Sunggyu, I liked this post of his: Sunggyu, you are by far the hardest person to get a read on. Which resulted in him swapping out Sunggyu for myself  That sort of thing. It wasn't always easy finding a post that conveyed what I wanted to tell him, but we made it work. If I didn't already trust Hongchul from previous matches and from what I had worked out about his role and intentions from that round of the Jury Game, I may have been suspicious that he was trying to mislead me. It's a trick that would only work in certain circumstances, like this one. Feel free to use this as a flashforward to build excitement for the episode  It's a shame the game didn't end properly as we had figured out the correct team and our secret likes were very likely the reason for what could have been a come-from-behind citizen victory.

How did you enjoy The Jury Game?
What do you make of the public arguments that occured towards the end?
How will Kyunghoon's elimination affect the remaining 6 contestants?
Now that the episodes are airing, what are you expecting to come to light, or are afraid will be shown?

Playing as a criminal in The Jury Game would have been more fun, but I consider myself lucky to not have to. As a perpetual citizen, I was able to be honest and earnest at all times and not piss anyone off too much or be seen to be actively screwing anyone over. My only concern heading into the final round was the possibility of BOTH Ahyoung and Eunji being criminals and the criminals winning 3-0. That scenario would have landed me in last place. However, it fairly quickly became clear that Ahyoung and Eunji were on different teams and I wouldn't be heading to the Death Match. I'm confident that neither of them would have chosen me as their Death Match opponent, so I continued to play The Jury Game without too much consideration for the meta-game. I've been working closely with Ahyoung in the last few rounds, but she's also more threatening of a player than Eunji as she has very strong social connections with both Hongchul and Jinho. I've told Ahyoung and Hongchul since the match that I came around to their side after realising it was what I should be doing to keep Ahyoung safe, but in reality I would have gone with whichever side were the citizens to gain myself more points. I stayed out of the arguments that occurred towards the end of the Main Match. They were good for my game, placing me squarely in the middle of the opposing sides, but I don't really buy that they'll be long-lasting. In particular I find Sunggyu and Hongchul's attacks on each other in the schedule discussion to be a transparent case of "let's work together but fight in public - nobody would expect us to be aligned!!!"  I could be wrong, and would prefer that I was, so will likely find out in tonight's Main Match. Kyunghoon's elimination was frustrating in terms of when and how it occured, but I'm happy about it. I said in the last round that he and Jinho were the next two I wanted to go because I wasn't connecting with them like I was the others. Now that Kyunghoon is gone, however, I'm not sure that I want Jinho to be next. Jinho has lost a close ally and may be genuine in his agreement to work with me as the third pair moving forward. I think he's a strong competitor and a very smart guy, but in the meantime he could be more use to me in the game than out. So far I'm not bothered by anything that has aired in the episodes. If Dongmin was still in the game it would be different, but there's little harm done in people seeing that he and I were close now. It's going to take some time to get used to seeing an edited version of myself in the episodes - like where it looks like I cared about the strawberry alliance but I was just indulging/praising Dongmin's speculations as the good "follower" ally I was pretending to be. There's nothing I'm afraid of coming to light. That's mostly because I don't have a great memory for the details of what has transpired If anything, I think it will be too late before the Hongchul/Ahyoung/Kyungran trio comes to light. |
