SoS (((hugs)))

I admire you for having the courage of your convictions. :) I did too
a while back and have never looked back. CitBingo is going to be poorer
for your loss and AWBingo, richer. When we can all learn that our
worlds... be it real or in AW... is made up of people with feelings and with
different lifestyles, cultures, races, classes and religions our lives will
be happier. Alas.. some of us are slow at learning.

Dear Diary,

Well.. that was fun. I watched as eveyone jumped onto little disks and
tribes were formed.

Cant wait to meet the rest of my tribe, so far we all seem to be a pretty
sane and level-headed bunch. What I liked about my fellow tribe members is
their quiet mature behaviour.



I don't think us older tribe member are at a disadVINTAGE and I will not
believe that being the only female in my tribe is going to put me at a
disadvantage. Im pretty good at cooking a great wild African meal.
mopani worms and flying ants.. plentiful at our camp site, very rich in
protein and carbohydrates and make a delicious curry along with the rice.rwx
that I think we may be supplied with as our stable diet. Just what we need
to build up strength to win those immunity challenges. I think NEBEWI is
going to be a force to contend with. We may have the majority of
newbies... but that could be to our advantage. I don't think any of us feel
threatened by the Robego members. Our emblem may be a deer.. but they are
elusive, alert and quick moving J



To all my tribe members. lets not think about who we will vote off from our
team. rather use the brain power to concentrate on working as a team,
winning the first immunity challenge and placing that worry onto Robego!

They are already feeling threatened by one another.

Gandalf, Mongo, Shorah, Maka, pixelot, Joeman and Koolcat hope you don't
mind me putting you all on my contact list.. please put me on yours.. my
name in worlds is Ambient Spirit.



GO NEBEWI!!



PS: Mongo, look at it this way, your newly acquired plumbing skills are
going to come in very handy for our tribe! :)

Hi Jerme!! If you were there, I promise I wouldnt have gotten confuzzed!
Looking forward to meeting you.

Jul 6, 2002, 1:41pm

Dear Diary,

Yeah... the games have certainly begun!! Today some sneak went and
removed the roof and backdrop to the VERY crude shelter i was able to make
for myself . Two items... thats all i took from the supply made
available to us and someone thought that it was very funny to either hide it
or delete it totally. Was it a member of my own tribe.. or a member of
Robego? Well, i do not know who it was... but i know for sure who the
people are that it wasn't. Someone out there is feeling pleased with
themselves.. and i am glad i could oblige.

Jul 9, 2002, 4:54am

Dear Diary,

A week passes and we are minus a tribe mate. :( It is dark, cold,
windy and we are still without fire and light. I am sitting in my little
hut after having replaced my backdrop with palms and draped ivy at the
entrance for a bit of privacy. The wind howls through every crevice.
Shivering, I stare through one little crack at Mongos' warm tent across the
way from me and am tempted to move my pillow in there, but what would the
rest of the tribe think? I mean, I see that Maka and Gandalf are
sharing a tent too and the mind boggles at what thoughts that might arouse!

This first week I have gotten to know a bit about the tribe members that are
at campsite. The new week brings new challenges and meeting new tribe
mates that due to different reasons could not be here. Jerme, welcome
home! Shorah, I hope you get your butt into camp soon! We need all 7
of us to be active in tribe activities and as a team if we are to get Robego
to face Tribal Council next week! I know we all come from different time
zones and cannot all be together all of the time, but how about we keep in
touch via grams, or maybe inscribe a message for one another on the rocks
in the fire pit?

Oh geeez.... now to try and go and and sink those rafts! *puts on Daffy
Duck clothes... looks at Porky on the opposite platform.... You're
dithpicable'!!!

We did have Tribunal Council and lost another tribe Member.
My thoughts on the whole thing? Someone is there in the shape of a little
black raven or crow... aptly named "The Survivor" and flitting around the
world...
sticking his beak where it shouldnt be. He is playing mind games with
us?
Could this be our Nornny? How would he know that the OP is off line?

I was not even in the Survivor world... and was grammed by this foul fowl
and told to go to Robegos' camp site because Eric had left a note calling
for a truce. I wonder if TS asked any other Nebewi peeps to go? Or is
he just after MY blood??
I told him that I did not want to go there and he replied that there was
no one there at the time and to go quickly. What a dimwit i was!! Unknown
to me,
he was waiting there... took a screenshot of me to keep and use as he
pleases!!

He then informed a Robego member that I was responsible for the destruction
of their campsite and produced the pic of me standing there. I have
NEVER
touched Robegos campsite! The worst I have done is lurk. Its up to you
guys
to believe him.. or me. Just watch your backs :(

OMG!!!!! I just checked that link!!!!! He removed the pics he took of me

and replaced it with something else :( Don't go there!! And NO!!..
that is NOT me!!

Jul 18, 2002, 10:01am

PS
The Survivor!!!... you are a piece of chicken *you know what*!!!!!!

Jul 20, 2002, 9:13am

I am very pleased to see that the pic has been removed. Whoever took it
down.. a BIG thankyou.
It has also come to my attention, that The Survivor was NOT responsible for
that... I now know who was *evil grin*
So to The Survivor, I apologise. To the person who did it... Im
watching you :)

Jul 31, 2002, 12:45pm

Dear Diary,
Been to the campsite everyday this week... and not seen any one of my tribe
members :( I'm hoping its just the time difference and nothing else.
With Maka gone, I feel a bit empty. he was a real mate and we had lots of
chats together. If you are reading this Maka... we miss you! You always
had a smile ready.
Now, standing at the campsite, I look around and see total devastation...
scorched earth. Where there used to be verdant grass we now have
semi-desert, trees are dead and gone, no water and very weak looking
flames. It is cold and more unwelcome than it was before. I even find
myself missing
'The Survivor' with his little bits of advice and cryptic messages. In
less that 8 hours we have another Immunity Challenge and I wonder what that
will hold for all of us... will we lose yet another tribe member.. bringing
our numbers down to half of Robegos?

*Crawls out of makeshift home*
Dear Diary
After having spent the best part of 5 cold days and nights wrapped up in a
sleeping bag, coughing, sneezing and trying to break a fever in this hell
hole, I have finally emerged with a chapped nose, watery eyes and no voice.
Not a tribe member in sight and I havent seen one in our new camp since the
Tiveac Tribe came into existence :(
I missed the immunity challenge and asked my team mates to please try and
fill in for me. Gandalf (who moved into the new tribe with me) having
seemingly suffered with the same illness couldnt attend either, and our
other two new members GameCube and D A N didnt make it. I am beginning to
wonder about the committment of everyone in Tiveac, are we team players or
are we all just watching our own backs? I suspect being the only female
and an older one at that, is not going to stand me in good stead with this
group at all.
The web challenge has been responsible for the abuse metered out by me to my
keyboard and mouse out of sheer frustration! I have not seen ONE deer
after hours of sitting and listening to peculiar noises that I dont
recognise. At one stage I was convinced there was a cricket trapped in my
speakers! I have pulled deer hair off from trees, stepped in deer
droppings, which royally cheesed me off... and found their resting
places.. but they continue to be so elusive. I am hoping my male team
mates are better at this than I am cos if they are relying on me to bring
meat back to the camp, they are going to starve. All I can offer them
are bbq apples from the apple trees I planted on the far side of our
campsite. How I would love to down a tequila sunrise right now!!

I look back at the passed weeks since Survivor 2 started and am in awe that
I am still here.

When the tribes were chosen, I and the only other female in the game,
Lioness were the *leftovers" and we were at the mercy of being chosen by any
tribe that wanted to have us. After announcing that I cook well lol I was
eventually chosed by the Nebewi tribe. Pixelot, Joeman, Gandalf, Mongo,
Jerme, Shorah and Maka were my tribemates. I was so hoping that I would have
a female companion with me! I knew none of these people at all.. never
spoken to them, and wondered how I was going to be viewed by them.. as a
threat.. a friend or simply someone to vote out when the time came.

It wasnt long before I was asked to join an alliance, and yes.. I did. Not
knowing anyone it had to be the only way I would get to know my fellow tribe
mates that were actively taking part in the game. Strange things start
happening in camp. I thought I would leave the tents to the guys and made
myself a make shift from trees, vines and floors. On returning to camp after
a while I found my humble abode had been ruined. I couldnt believe it was
one of my own tribemates and spent hours investigating.. with no luck! Then
Joemans tent caught alight.. and Makas.... we didnt even have the luxury of
fire! So..... off I went to Robegos camp... thinking they were the culprits.
I arrived there.. thought hard.. and then not really having any proof that
they were responsible.. left again. I had the Immunity challenge on my mind.
Nebewi were well represented but we lost the challenge and had to fo to
Tribal Council :(

I had no idea who to vote for.. so I voted for the person who had to date
been the most inactive on our tribe...Pixelot. Nothing personal hon... just
didnt get to know you ;(

Along came week2. I spent time trying to make our camp look comfortable..
Maka helped me. I was royally cheesed off that Jerme complained about our
camp looking like crap! He had not done a thing.. and Maka took ages
planting those trees.. albeit all in a row! At least he did something! Then
on top of it.. more items disappear.

I became increasingly more suspicious of a member on my own tribe.. but say
nothing to anyone. Time for the second Immunity Challenge arrives. It was
hilarious! I have to admire maki for his quick thinking! Although, Mongo,
one of my own tribe and the whole tribe suffered as result.. I felt it was a
brilliant move and wished that I had thought of it. I comforted myself
knowing that my time to be sneaky would come :) Again Robego win the
challenge and we face Tribunal Council again! This time I voted for Shorah..
another tribe mate that I had not got to know and who had not helped in
camp, attended any Challenge or Council to date. Our Web challenge gave us a
chance to win some cool signs... I wished it was fire.. but that was not to
be.

Joeman.. well done... but sadly, as Maki leaves... his warning of you
playing both sides makes me very nervous! LOL

Standing alone in camp... feeling on edge.. I swing arond and see a black
raven fluttering its wings.. not saying a word to me..! I said hello.. and
he disappeared. This continued for a few days.. I was really starting to
become unnerved! He kept appearing, just hanging there watching me, not
saying a word when I asked who he was.. then disappearing. Finally.. he
appears again and makes his identity known! "The Survivor" He warns me
against members in my own tribe without giving names.. He tells me things
are "not what they seem" and members of my tribe are also responsible for
destroying ours and Robegos campsite! I am shocked.. and have a hard time
believing him. I asked him who he was.. and all he would say was "I see all,
this is a warning, be aware, I am helping you" He then proceeds to give me a
url at Robegos camp.. where there has been considerable damage and tells me
to go and look, then once again.. he disappears. Like a puppy on a leash I
go and am shocked at the state of their camp.. and then I receive a URL from
The Survivor which I visit and it shows me at Robegos site and suspicion is
immediatly cast on me as being the culprit! I was furious!! LOL I
immediately went to the NGs and wrote telling all that there was a pic of me
at Robego and that it was a setup and supplied the URL. On visiting the
website a little later I was horrified that the pic of me at Robegos
Campsite had been replaced with with a topless woman romping on a bed! This
time... I spat venom! It was not long though before the culprit changed it.
I never again saw "The Survivor" after that incident and in a strange sort
of way miss him.

And so the following week arrives.. another Immunity Challenge, another
failure for Nebewi :( Our chances are being dashed more and more. At
Tribal Council I cast my vote... remebering the warning maka gave us, I vote
for Joeman Robego win lots of awesome objects. And still we have no
fire or water . My mind went into overdrive.. Maybe . just maybe I am
learningto be sneaky too and with the help of a friend whom I give my priv
passward too I sneak way down under Robegos camp and build layer upon
layer.. and still layer upon layer of invisible rows of floor to use up all
the cell space so that they cannot use their new obs :) I cracked up,
while still in sneak mode, when a couple of the Robego mates arrived to try
and build.. all they got was a rude note from the Building Inspector J

The following week saw the switch... three tribes instead of two. I felt my
world had been turned upside down! Dan, Gamecube, Gandalf and I are not
picked to join any tribe.. and the third tribe Tiveac is born. Only Gandalf
and I are from Nebewi. We are given a new site with lots of obs to build
with and I try not to think about what the week ahead holds and then I find
out i have to swim across aligator infested waters!! sheesh!!! Well that
event landed me in bed with bronchitis for almost 5 days and I missed my
first Immunity Challenge :(( And once again we face Tribunal Council. LOL I
hated this sesson more than any other because my vote was based only on not
knowing him. DAN. Off to deer hunting.. I never saw one of them!

At last the week arrives where we win our FIRST Immunity Challenge!!!
Whooohoo!! I could not contain my excitement... Our little SOS sign won!!!!
Finally we would not have to face Council!! I hugged that Immunity Idol!!
LOL. Jerme got voted off... and not knowing him.. his leaving didnt really
affect me

And so the games go on. We are fortunate to win the next Web challenge
and that in turn gives me the choice of taking part in the next Immunity
Challenge or opting to go to Tribal Reckoning instead. None of my
tribemates are on line so I decide on Reckoning to ensure Tiveac go through
to the merge. Then, Mongo.. anther person I got on well with is voted
off.

Merge week arrives and I am given the privilege of naming the new tribe.
After surfing the web and looking up Tribal Names I decide on Nonondago,
which means people on the hill. Before we know it. its time again for the
next challenge and maki is up to his wonderful tricks again LOL...only
problem is.. he booted himself out of the world too! hey i still admire his
antics! lol Lioness the Brave.. wins yet again... yayyy for the female
race!

And on to the next Next web challenge... a pot bellied beer drinking savage
throwing a spear. No matter how hard I tried.. I could get no where near
where I wanted to. Who was I thinking of when aiming that spear?? Thats for
me to know and you to find out ;)) Tribal Council comes round yet again and
I vote GameCube and because of cheating by an ex tribe mate, BB resigns
from the game> I was very sad to see him go:( and at the same time I
feel a selfish sense of relief cos my vote which was a 'draw from the hat"
type vote saves the person I nominated.

Another Web challenge.. I win! not really wanting a t-shirt seeing it costs
me 200 bucks to clear at the PO here...

oh sheesh!!!!!!! What am I doing this weeks Challenge in the NG for!! To
win yet another T-Shirt!! This is as far as I go! I am not about to lay my
cards open. to pay 200 bucks for a T-shirt!!

The only other thing I have to say is this.. I am aware that alliances are
switching. The ladies and "oldies" are being gunned for by the AWTeeners.
May the best person win!! J

Dear Diary,

I am cut to the quick! Accused of backstabbing!! That was no backstab.. I
call it self-preservation!! :)
What is a girl to do? There have only been two females in the tribe from
the outset! We need each others support, along with a few genuine male
supporters. I was asked to vote with the Goosie Goosie Gandy alliance and
was told that one of their own AWTeeners was in the firing line.. and then..
out of the blue I receive information from someone not in that alliance or
the game, that in actual fact, Lioness is their next target . Well, I
just could not let that happen, I would be the last remaining female in
the tribe... and I would be eaten for breakfast! On top of it I felt
side-lined! Why didnt the alliance let me know themselves???

As I see it now, there are 2 sides... 4 against 3.. We do not have an
alliance.. we just seem to be thinking along the same lines.. How long it
will last?.... who knows :P I have got this far.. having made no
enemies that I am aware of and I am ecstatic! If I have to go next it
will be with grace and aplomb :)) Gandy... well played and enjoy your seat
on the jury, It should be very interesting.. you and the person you voted
to leave.... maki.
