~~Welcome to your Confessional~~
Welcome to your confessional for CYS 15: Chernobyl. It is in this thread you will confess your thoughts about the game, the players, and anything else you wish to say.
Following this season, I will be making a "season in review". Pretty much that means a season recap like the ones they do in the first few minutes of the season finale. See the video below for an example.
Because of this, I am asking that everyone does video confessionals. This will make it much easier to create the recap at the end of the season and it makes it much more interesting from a viewer's perspective. The more videos you make, the better edit you will get.
In order to upload a video confessional, go to Youtube, click upload, and upload your video as an unlisted video. Making the video unlisted is the most important part! This makes it so we can see the video but no one else can.
If you want a Production member to record a live confessional, just contact one of us and we will be happy to do it.
Again, video confessionals are not required but recommended. What is required is at least two confessional posts per round. This can (and should) be in the form of a video, but can also be in the form of text, pictures, gifs, or audio. If you do not post two confessionals for a given round, you will receive a disadvantage at the next challenge, whether it be tribal or individual immunity on the line.
I look forward to watching you play this season and I can't wait to see you all fight for that number one spot! Good luck! <3

1. Name/Age? Spencer, 16
2. Current Residence? Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
3. Personal Claim to Fame? Being casted in CYS:15 of course.
4. Inspiration in Life? Myself, I'm the best.
But really, I don't find inspiration in other people. I live my life in a way that I try to benefit myself both by improving my standing in life and strengthening my mental state. I am given inspiration in the fact that it will make me a better me.
5. Hobbies? Video games, ORGs, Television (dramas and reality).
6. Pet Peeves? When people complain about trivial things that I don't care about. When people refuse to make even the slightest attempt to accommodate for somebody else due to their own massive ego. People who treat others as inferior.
7. Three Words to Describe You? Calm, adaptable, idealistic.
8. If you could have 3 things on an island, what would they be and why? Sunscreen because sunburn hurts like hell. A hidden supply of food so I don't have to eat roasted eel or whatever stupid shit they found on the ground today. A deck of cards for entertainment.
9. Survivor contestant you are most like? Rob Cesternino, I think we have a similar outlook on the game.
10. Reason for being on CYS? To win. And meeting people is cool I guess.
11. Why do think you will be Sole CYSurvivor? I think I'll be the Sole CYSurvivor because of my tendency to be in the middle of the pack. This keeps me safe for long enough for me to be able to lead my game in the direction that I want it. By playing a calm and focused demeanor, I can divert the attention away from me and towards the bigger social threats. The challenge comes in during the middle-end of the game, where I need to make sure that I have the bonds required to pull me forward, but I believe I will be able to do this.
I can survive ;3

Sorry for no video, I'm at work. I'll get a video going more in depth and going into future plans later this afternoon. Also sorry for no confessionals this round, I'll explain why in a minute.
So the challenge was revealed, and I was pretty pumped actually because here was a chance to show my dedication to the tribe by being on the full 24 hours and catching everybody right? So I chose to be a predator, but at around 5PM before the challenge started I started to get pretty bad acid reflux. By around 11 that night, it had escalated worse than I've ever had it, so I just had to get off, and ended up going to the hospital. (Don't worry I'm fine now c:)
So because of that I kind of left the entire night to Tommy. He pulled through, and I was able to somewhat redeem myself by watching the next day while he was at school and napping, but he still ended up catching the last prey either way, so statistically he kind of did all the capturing.
Anyways I'm glad that challenge is over, it was pretty annoying to have to check back so often. My team seems to understand that I had to go so that's good, but I'm glad we didn't have to go to tribal anyways. Even if I wasn't at risk, I'd hate to bring us down to 4 so quickly, because although we assume a swap in the next 3 rounds, I'd be at huge risk if we ended up at TC yet again.
So again, I'll try to have a video up later today, meant to do one yesterday but really felt like shit. I'll try my best to be more regular with them from now on.
On the bright side, I have spring break this coming week, so tons of time to work on bonding and challenge whore it up.

So again, no video for now because I look like shit because I was super lazy all day and never got dressed.
Basically, I've done absolutely nothing all round. I feel kind of bad about it, and I really don't like my chances if we have to go to TC, but at the same time I really wasn't going to be able to help with the challenge anyways. I'm a lot lazier about this game than I really should be, but just getting sidetracked by other things that take less effort. I hope that if I last a few more rounds I can actually gather the will to go hard at the game, but as for now I'm just kind of sitting back.
On the bright side, it seems like the others really aren't too fond of Ed, and with a swap looming over our shoulder I'm assuming that they'll look more at who is loyal to them as to challenge prowess that I haven't shown. I should be fine for the next little bit, but once swap comes I'm really going to have to bust my ass and actually get working and communicating.
I dunno, as I've mentioned before, while I like my tribe as people, they're not really people I can just hang out and chat with. This makes it take effort to keep a conversation going on both of our ends, and while it may kill me in the long run, I just really don't want to force it any more for now.

Eyy, so I don't really have enough to say to warrant a video, but I'll get back on that as soon as I do.
Big props to my team for winning this challenge, I did absolutely nothing in the end, but it's nice to be first anyways. I doubt there will be a swap this round, so I'll just put in some effort next challenge in order to get back into their good books before we swap.
Still not much communication, I'll maybe start some casual conversation tonight, but again, not really going to force anything if people are doing other things.
So yeah, no real new news, just the same as always. I think the game will start picking up when we swap/merge, so hopefully I'm ready to kick some ass when that rolls around.

So I'll cover things in more detail later tonight when I can make a video.
Basically, the goal this round is to get Ed home, it seems to be going fine. Brandon wanted to vote out Owen this week, but I really didn't want to lose my half life partner, so I pushed towards Ed and it worked. We got Anie and Owen on call and us 5 plan to vote out Ed. There is some room for error, and I'm a little worried something could still go wrong, but should be fine.
Really like this tribe, would be cool if we could have one more round together before merge, and hope we can stay together after merge for the first bit.

So like... I think I'm going?
I mean, either I'm going or I'm on the distant outs of my alliance, because I haven't heard anything since the IC ended. I talked to some people, but it wasn't about the game or anything. I'll try see if anybody will talk to me, but I don't have high hopes.
I'm not going to fight it too hard if I find out I'm the main target, obviously I'd prefer to stay, but juggling the game with school is more draining than I expected and I'm starting to get lazy with the game anyways.
I'll see what I find out, but I think this might be the end of me.
