Hi everyone.....my name is Robin....I'm 42.....I'm a secretary....mother of 2 girls, and I live in Pennsylvania. I'm looking forward to chatting with you all! My screen name is RckNRobn3.....feel free to IM me anytime, I love to chat. Talk to you all soon. GO RUTKINS! Hello Rutkins Tribemates! This is Ramiel. I am Klingon. I am pleased to be on the Rutkins tribe. I hope that we can work together to trounce the other teams. I am stationed in the Houston area serving the Intergalactic Klingon Empire. :) I will do what I can to blaze a path to Glory in Survivor X. OK OK I sure hope that that did not "alientate" me :). I am just a big Trek fan and would like to keep my Klingon persona for this game. I love Survivor. I have auditoned twice and am trying for a third time to be on Survivor7. E-Survivor has been a great alternative to the real thing. Let's get some introductions going. That way we know what each person brings to the table and we can coordinate some team effort. I guess I can go next, since Robin has already given us a brief statement. I serve aboard the Warhammer as tactical and communications officer. I am multilingual including Spanish French Italian English and tlhinganHol. I am learning Catalan and Portuguese. I am fiercely loyal. I seek the success of the team before anything. Eduardo, Would you introduce yourself next since you are third on the list? Hey Darren! I just looked up where you were in the world and saw that you are very far from where I am. That is what I love about this game! People can play from all over the world. I have family in Canada. Montreal and Toronto mostly. I think I have relaives in Winnepeg. I love Eastern CA. It is really beautiul country up there. qapla' Ramiel O cool That is so great. Yes it is very beautiful country :D .::Darren::. TRibe, It is very important that we try to include all the information that Sam asked for in our intratribe communications. The rat points can be a very integral part of a challenge. You want every little bit to help. Go Rutkins! Ramiel. Darren, I have Yahoo IM at my house and at my work place. right now I am at a workstation that does not have the software. I should be online tonight at about 6:30 PM Central ST. I guess that would be 4:30 Pacific time. Rutkins Rules!!! Ramiel. Robin, Unfortunately I do no have AIM. I have only yahoo. I will try to see what I can do for the game. On yahoo it is simply Sonofthunderike Rutkin Rampage! Ramiel Robin, No I don't have a screen name for AIM :( it looks like a lot of you prefer it. I will investigate about downloading it when I get home Rutkin Ra Ra Ra! Ramiel G'Day everyone My names blake and im from sydney australia and i just wanted to touch base before the challenge and see how everyone is doing etc so feel free to reply im just sittin here anyway lol lets go through with the six we have all the way to the end Catch yas later Blake Eduardo, Have you been getting the challenge messages? We need you to get on board! do you need some help? I have an atlas available to me or call you local library for an obscure city. That way we do not duplicate. Rutikns Rumba! Joel Hey tribe I think we are still doing OK With Blake in Australia, he has not yet seen the messages. If Sam sent the message out at 9:AM EST then it would have been at 5:00 PM his time Jan 2. I checked my e-mail at 6:00 PM CST and He still has not answered, it may be that it is already the next day to him. Or however that works. What I am getting at is that he gets the messages during his evening time! He might not see the challenge until later! That might have to temper our strategies and have him make sure to check his e-mail when he gets up or chek it very late at night. Good luck to us all, Rutkin Munchkins! Ramiel Blake I don't think you got the challenge. I am just making sure. Do you think you could reply to Sam soon? Ramiel Eduardo does exist! I think I'm going to like Ramiel the best on the tribe. He seems very active and very friendly. It's tough because he doesn't have AIM. He was going to see if he could download it but I haven't heard anything since. The only one I've talked to in IM so far is Darren. He's the only one I know of that has AIM. We'll have to figure something out......it's so much better when you can talk one on one and get to know each other better. -Robin Hi! I just wanted everyone to know that I have installed yahoo messenger. My name on there is robofab4. I'm new at this so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do next. Do I add everyone to my messenger list? Does everybody have yahoo messenger? And does it work just like AIM? HELP.....lol. Robin Robin, It is very easy. Just type in our Yahoo Ids. They will send us anmessage and we will accept. Or just accept someone elses invitation. Eduardo is terminator420111 Elisabeth is irigs_up I am sonofthunderike I hope it works! Ramiel I guess we know who the active ones are going to be on this tribe; me, Ramiel, Darren and Eduardo. Eduardo came through in the crunch for us!! I would like to get with Ramiel and discuss an alliance with him. I think he and I will get along great. I hope nobody else has gotten to him already. He seems like the strongest member of this tribe so far and that's who I usually like to go with. He also seems like a nice person too. I can't really criticize or diss anyone right now because I don't know everybody well enough yet. But I'm sure that will change. But participation in challenges means everything. It irritates me when people just sit back and let everyone else do the challenge. When you're part of a team, you act like it. You help out your team. -Robin Hi Everyone, My name is Elisabeth, Call me what you like. I am sorry that i was unavailable these past couple days but i was having internet trouble, We just got hit with a major storm and the power was out. I apologize to you all and hope that we can have a fresh start since we are not the ones that have to go to Tribal Council...!!! :) just so you know my yahoo ID is lrigs_up (Seriously, my nickname) My strategies for playing this game is to try to pull my weight and lay low. I am going to wait on building alliances. I think just the inactivity of Elisabeth and Blake will make them first targets if we loose a challenge. The great thing is that our team does not have to win big, we just have to not lose in a game with three teams. Second is not always so bad. I have to remeber to check my e-mail while I am at work. Unfortunately I can't realistically pay attention to the game during those those times but just checking in everyonce in a while will be beneficial. Ramiel Elisabeth, I am glad to see that you are up and running. I hope that this means that we can depend on your participation. I was really squirming when I saw only a few of us replying. But Here is the cool thing. Wdon th have to WIN, we just can't lose. Ya know what I mean? Well, Make sure to check your messages on Sunday that is when the next challenge comes. Don't forget your rat points! Rutkins rules! Ramiel Hi Rutkins Tribe! I am glad we were spared of the tribal council. Please make sure to check your e-mail every three days to see the challenges. I was just thinking that the sun never sets on the Rutkins tribe! Blake is in Sydney, Eduardo is in Puerto Rico, I am in Central USA, and Darren is in Western Canada. I think that is the greatest! We need to really strategize and organize ourselves. I think that our concerns are when Sam sends out messages that several of us get the messages at very strange times. For instance if Sam sends out a message at 9:00 AM. Blake gets the message at about 5:00 PM his time. I get it at 8: AM and Daren gets it at 6:00 AM. I encourage you to be diligent to check your e-mail and let's work together! Right-o Rutkins! Ramiel Rutkins Tribe, Darren, January 5th, 10: , 2002 This, I guess is my very first confessional. I have just today, struck a deal with Blake, that puts Me, Blake, and Elisabeth into an alliance. I think that this alliance will get me far in the game, and I hope to make a lasting relationship with everyone. We are a good tribe, and I dont want to merge into two tribes. This will obviously eventually happen, but there isnt much I can do about it. Next, I will describe what I think about each person. Robyn: She seems very nice though we rarely talk. Elisabeth We have talked, I dont mind her, but I dont really really like her either. It will be interesting to see what happens between us. Blake: He seems very nice, but hasnt been around lately. I just got to talking him tonight, so that is obviously not very good. Eduardo: He wasnt there to help for the first challenge, but he helped us out today. Not to bad of a guy at all. Ramiel He is very nice, active, and is a very big asset to this tribe. All in all, I think are tribe is very active, and I cant wait to play more of the game. .::Darren::. hey guys great job on the challenge seems like this tribes unbeatable anyways i just wanted to ask you guys where the best place to chat witht the whole tribe we should all get together and then we will be unbeatable the other tribes dont stand a chance so should i find you all on yahoo, msn ?????????? let me know guys lets keep kicking ass Later Blake hey ramiel we havent had a chance to talk yet so im in and i was just talking with liz she said she was gonna be back in like half an hour so at least thats half of us if anyone else gets this we might do it the best way would be yahoo i think cause darren has yahoo as do i, liz , and ramiel that i know of by the way my yahoo ID is themightyhulkster just so everyone doesnt get freaked when i message them ok guys talk soon to you all hopefully lts keep this six going to the end later Blake Hey robin i just wanted to thank you for the tip on my email i had alot of big files in folders that i didnt know were there thats why things were coming back anyway shout us back and then we can talk some more on the game do you have yahoo or msn? just makes it easier than email. well we are two for two in challenges and last night got pretty hectic with eduardo but we got it in the end im glad we dont have to go again gotta feel for quintric but it could be worse.......it could be us lol anyway talk to you later Blake Rutkins Tribe....Robin Wow...we won another! This is great. I hate voting people off. And we seem to be getting closer and closer every day. We just have to figure out a way to get everyone together to chat since not everyone has AIM. But I'm sure we will. The only one I've really talked to so far is Ramiel and he seems great..I think he and I are going to get along great. So far I can't really say anything bad about anybody on the tribe.....one, because I haven't talked to everybody yet (except in email) and two, because in the emails, they seem very nice. But hey! It's early! Things have a way of changing at a moment's notice....lol Hi Blake! You're very welcome. And yes, I am so glad we won immunity! Yes I do have MSN and Yahoo. My name on Yahoo is robofab4 and my name on MSN is RbnRbts. I'm looking forward to chatting with you! I just chatted to Elisabeth tonight on Yahoo for the first time tonight. It was great. Talk to you soon! Robin finally got to talk to Elisabeth last night. She mentioned something about us sticking together and then when I agreed, she hemmed and hawed. So I don't know what that was all about. I just hope we keep on winning challenges so we don't have to worry about all that yet. And Blake was really cool...sending me an email to thank me for letting him know what was going on. That was nice of him. And I still have a good feeling about Ramiel. We have to find a way to get the whole tribe together to have a chat between all of us. Email is nice but it's not the same as chatting. sonofthunderike: R u there? robofab4: Hi! robofab4: yes I'm here robofab4: :) sonofthunderike: Hi how are you? robofab4: I'm good...how are you? sonofthunderike: OK. When is the next challenge? robofab4: I'm not sure, I'm just reading my email now sonofthunderike: Saturday roght? robofab4: I'm looking......I think so robofab4: I don't know if he said, did he? robofab4: anything? robofab4: it's nice to finally talk to you sonofthunderike: I don;t remember. I already discarded the message robofab4: okay....I'll look robofab4: yep......Saturday robofab4: no time listed though sonofthunderike: yeah. it could come at anytime on saturday. robofab4: I should be around most of the day....my daughter has a basketball game but other than that, I'll be here sonofthunderike: I will be out of town but I will bring my comp with me robofab4: :) sonofthunderike: big beatles fan are ye? robofab4: yes....huge robofab4: lol, how'd ya guess? sonofthunderike: hmmmmm robofab4: haha sonofthunderike: any one approach you about alliances yet? robofab4: no...not at all robofab4: how about you? robofab4: I was talking to Elisabeth the other night but she never mentioned alliances robofab4: neither did I sonofthunderike: nope. I think I am ready. Blake and I have been able to talk alot, but I have not seen the others online robofab4: I've talked to Blake quite a bit through email robofab4: I think you, me and Blake would make a great team, we seem to be the ones on the most sonofthunderike: I am wondering if it is time. I like blake but he did not seem to get into the challenges very well. robofab4: you're probably right, it might be best just to wait a little while and see robofab4: since we've been kicking butt!! sonofthunderike: yeah. I agree. I think that things can wait. robofab4: k...sounds good sonofthunderike: I gotta do some stuff in dinotopia. I will be online for a while feel free to ring in! robofab4: okay.....sure! robofab4: I should be here for awhile myself The person I liked most from Survivor was Jenna. She made a very empathic impression to me. I like the players who work that way. Is this an alliance? no, but I am building trust and reinforcing friendships. I like to build relationships. So far Blake and Robin have been open chatters. I did e-mail back and forth with Eduardo, but I think his computer resources are limited. If i had to team up with people it would probaly be Blake and Robin. -Ramiel themightyhulkster: yo yo whats up sonofthunderike: NuqneH themightyhulkster: huh? sonofthunderike: Klingon greeting sonofthunderike: How is sydney? themightyhulkster: nice and hot brother sonofthunderike: Summer there now, No? themightyhulkster: yes sonofthunderike: I year for the summer to return. I hate cold weather. 80F is too cold for me sonofthunderike: yearn themightyhulkster: indeed i dont like cold themightyhulkster: dont get to much cold here sonofthunderike: How long have you lived in sydney? all your life? themightyhulkster: yeah sonofthunderike: kul themightyhulkster: so we are safe again sonofthunderike: yeah I think it's a good day. I am glad that we don't have to go to tribal. themightyhulkster: indeed themightyhulkster: so did you do the challenge sonofthunderike: I forgot to log in! themightyhulkster: its ok we won anyway sonofthunderike: yeah, but when it comes down to the line I would not want to be the reason we lose a challenge sonofthunderike: Wait we have unbtil thursday? themightyhulkster: yeah well its ok you just have to keep checking all times day and night thats how you stay on top themightyhulkster: its finished check your email sonofthunderike: What time is it for you there? themightyhulkster: 12:48pm on thursday sonofthunderike: Oh early afternoon! themightyhulkster: it is sonofthunderike: How did you know the names of the other tribes? themightyhulkster: in the waiting room all tribes are up there sonofthunderike: e-gad I never thought of that! themightyhulkster: lol sonofthunderike: It's 7:52 pm HERE themightyhulkster: where are you sonofthunderike: Central USA sonofthunderike: Houston Tx themightyhulkster: cool themightyhulkster: gets hot there too huh? sonofthunderike: yea. It was very sunny here themightyhulkster: id liek it there then themightyhulkster: like themightyhulkster: so have you spoken to everyone in the tribe now sonofthunderike: 16 Hrs ahead Hmm? I have not spoken to every one. themightyhulkster: its weird huh sonofthunderike: IWell come to think of it I have spoken to everyone. sonofthunderike: Either through IM or e-mail sonofthunderike: I had been geetting my messages sent back from your box themightyhulkster: is ok now i fixed it had some major files hidden didnt know about thm but its fine now would you mind testing it out for me just send somethin sonofthunderike: 10-4 themightyhulkster: see if its cool everyone elses is coming through so just to be safe themightyhulkster: thanks buddy sonofthunderike: so what are you deep into? themightyhulkster: me cricket , rugby mainly themightyhulkster: aussie sports you might not have heard of them especially cricket sonofthunderike: Yeah?!? I am into soccer. My university had a rugby team. themightyhulkster: cool soccer is an awesome game too sonofthunderike: A few of us USAers are not as international dolts as some would have us think. sonofthunderike: I like watching cricket as much as I like watching Baseball. I know very little of either themightyhulkster: baseball sux themightyhulkster: cricket is awesome once you understand it sonofthunderike: Have you picts? of yourself? themightyhulkster: no but i lent my camera to my brother he is bringing it back sometime this week then i will start with pics and tuff themightyhulkster: stuff sonofthunderike: Okay. I am trying to figure out how to put mine up in my profile. themightyhulkster: ???????? themightyhulkster: i just truied for me and i didnt work themightyhulkster: i have some in my files sonofthunderike: profiles.yahoo.com themightyhulkster: yeah Robin I have no idea where that came from. I think you are one of the stronger members because you spend a lot of time online. I was really surprised to see that you were even mentioned as the weakest member. But as far as Ican tell the other teams do not see any individual in our tribe as a real threat. Each of us was mentioned in the third question. Keep up the good work.

He seemed kind of reserved though. But he's very competitive and I like that. We need strong players like him. He doesn't seem to like Blake very much. He brought up the subject of an alliance and then dropped it just as quickly. So time will tell on that one I guess. Hopefully we won't have to worry about it anytime soon anyway -Robin Elisabeth: What do you think about today's challenge? I was relieved that as individuals we did not have to do anything. But I did not like the fact that we had to depend on others. Are you liking this game? Have you played before? What are you strategies? Ramiel Robin I want to give you a head's up. I really think that Blake is leaning to vote against you tonight. He may have been trying to convince me of the same. I just can't do that. You and he have been the only ones that have bothered to communicate with me. -Ramiel sonofthunderike: We Lost! sonofthunderike: ;( themightyhulkster: i know themightyhulkster: im pissed sonofthunderike: me too. themightyhulkster: very early on themightyhulkster: i sent it to robin themightyhulkster: so pissed we had a perfet record themightyhulkster: we have to vote was hoping we would keep missing it sonofthunderike: have you voted already? themightyhulkster: no but themightyhulkster: no on else deserves to go its a hard one but we lost themightyhulkster: i think i have to vote robin only cause we lost themightyhulkster: i dont know i was hoping our tribe would have a 6 people perfect record themightyhulkster: everyone else was here today except her and its a challenge day sonofthunderike: I know. I don't know what I am going to do. themightyhulkster: important to be online those days themightyhulkster: well i think we have to do the fair thing everyone else has been participating without a hitch but he lost us the challenge today so i have to do the fair thing themightyhulkster: she themightyhulkster: sorry sonofthunderike: You're really mad at her. themightyhulkster: no themightyhulkster: mad we lost themightyhulkster: it happens themightyhulkster: but no one else deserves to go themightyhulkster: how can i vote for anyone else themightyhulkster: do you see my point? sonofthunderike: It's funny but she's been online alot before. I have not seen anyone else but you and robin sonofthunderike: Am I missing somehting? themightyhulkster: darren is onlione alot and i talk to liz most days so far and you eduardo not so much and oly email with robin never chatted with her themightyhulkster: so you darren and liz mainly themightyhulkster: online alot us 4 lol themightyhulkster: internet junkies themightyhulkster: lol themightyhulkster: :) sonofthunderike: do you e-mail darren and liz? sonofthunderike: or IM? themightyhulkster: im mostly o everyone unless there is a challenge themightyhulkster: IM themightyhulkster: sorry themightyhulkster: lol themightyhulkster: typing bad today sonofthunderike: with yahoo? or the other IM services? themightyhulkster: yahoo for you and liz and darren , hotmail for eduardo themightyhulkster: so have you decided what your gonna do sonofthunderike: I am not sure. I have a feeling that Robin is more of an asset than eduardo. sonofthunderike: I keep getting mailerdaemons from elisabeth. Do you know what's up with her? sonofthunderike: irigs_up@yahoo.com right? themightyhulkster: yeah thats it name: Darren tribe: Rutkins vote: Robyn why: I am voting for her because she is the reason we lost. If she would have been on we would have won. name: Eduardo tribe: Rutkins vote: Elizabeth why: because I don't have a great comunication with her comparing with the others and I think she's the weakest member of the tribe name: Ramiel tribe: Rutkins vote: Eduardo why: I have not seen much onlince presence. Nothing personal but he is just not around name: Blake tribe: Rutkins vote: Eduardo why: Promise to ramiel and the BD BOYS have split it nicely LOL :) name: Robin tribe: Rutkins vote: Eduardo why: I know him the least and I'm going with the majority name: Elizabeth tribe: Rutkins vote: Eduardo why: HEs a rude person, even if he does speak english as good as a INSECT , we all know what happens to insects ...................SPLAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello Ramiel, I have voted :). Sry we havent talked much lol. I am on alot, you can go right ahead and msg me, or if I remember I will msg u The West Coast is great :D. We have no snow where I live now, I would love some though! .::Darren::. I finally had the chance to chat with Blake last night. Just in the nick of time too. I think he was planning on rallying people to vote for me. Ramiel said he wouldn't. I felt so bad about screwing up on the challenge. I wasn't around very much yesterday, just got on at 8:30 last night. And by then it was too late I think. Hopefully I can redeem myself. I'm good at challenges and I have to prove that to my team. But Blake sounds like a great guy and I'm so glad I had the chance to talk to him. I just have to remember to sign into Yahoo when I get on. Yahoo is new to me and I'm not used to it yet...lol. But I'm slowly getting there. -Robin
