Stranded in Mykonos

It's back. You're back. We're back. LET'S GO!!!

As you should remember from last season, this is your very own confessional space to say whatever it is you want. It's where you will cast votes and change the fate of many in this game. Only hosts and alumni can view this space. Talk here anytime to ask the hosts questions, let us in about alliances you have and which ones are fake or real, who you are vibing with and who you want out, or just straight up nonsensical venting. We love a good and active confessional, we want to see your arc evolve from S40: Stranded in the Aegean Sea! All us hosts and viewers are excited to have you back once again, so we appreciate you being here.

---

Here are some questions to get back into the swing of things:

1. How excited are you to be back playing Stranded again? Tell us what's been going on in your life since Aegean Sea happened. What made you come back once more?
2. Look around you. What are some initial thoughts about who is on this season of Mykonos with you? Are you surprised to see anyone, or not see anyone? Anyone that you are excited to play with, or not play with?
3. How are you feeling about the contrast of playing on a smaller and shorter season this time compared to the (surprise!) cast of 40 players last time?
4. Think about your previous game, where you sadly were a pre-juror. Why do you think you went out when you did? If you could change one thing you did last season, what would you do different? Are there any experiences from last season that you will put into this season?
5. Are you going to play similarly to how you did during S40, or do you have a different strategy going into this?

Good luck and best wishes to you!

Queen Hali  Glad to see you back. 

Rooting for you hard here (obviously haha). Can you post a confesh when you get a chance so we know what's going on in your head good luck, you're maybe my favorite. 

Hi everyone!!! Confessional coming soon, promise!!

Hello again!!

You probably have seen that I've been a little MIA with being on a mini vacation but I am finally back and ready to play! 

1. How excited are you to be back playing Stranded again? Tell us what's been going on in your life since Aegean Sea happened. What made you come back once more?
   • I am very excited but also extremely nervous to be playing again. Nothing much has been going on in my life since the last game, just been working and planning a wedding! How could I not come back?! I came pretty close to jury so I would love to at least make it that far this go around!
2. Look around you. What are some initial thoughts about who is on this season of Mykonos with you? Are you surprised to see anyone, or not see anyone? Anyone that you are excited to play with, or not play with?
   • I was in total shock to see rodney, I can't believe he singed up for this again lol. I was happy to see Mike and even Carolyn, it was comforting to know some people prior and skip through the get to know you phase of chatting. I am so surprised that Dom isn't playing??? I'm got a little nervous seeing Steph her since I voted her off last time, I hope she won't hold that grudge against me. 
3. How are you feeling about the contrast of playing on a smaller and shorter season this time compared to the (surprise!) cast of 40 players last time?
   • I am happy that this is shorter, because last time felt like it was never going to end haha. But then again I think its going to be super tough to trust people that quick and its going to go by so quick.
4. Think about your previous game, where you sadly were a pre-juror. Why do you think you went out when you did? If you could change one thing you did last season, what would you do different? Are there any experiences from last season that you will put into this season?
   • After lots of time to think about it, I think my real fault last season was not playing hard enough and underestimating people. I need to remember just because someone isn't talking game with me it does not mean they aren't talking game at all. I think I need to be a little more aggressive, but still stay true to being a nice person people can talk to about anything and not just game. Playing a very strong social game is extremely important!!
5. Are you going to play similarly to how you did during S40, or do you have a different strategy going into this?
   • ​​​​​​​I think I'll try to stay low-key at first but still making alliances, but I want to make sure I make my own name for myself in this game as well when it gets down to it. We all know how iconic #Halsey was but i need to bring out more of Hali and really try my best to make it far this time!!

Just some side notes...

It seems the most active people so far are James and Mike, not very surprising at all. Thankfully mike has been putting my name out there in a positive light, so I know I can trust him at least for now. 
I think a group that could possibly be formed is me, James, Mike, Michelle, Paul, and Morgan. Then there's naseer and steph who also seem to be chatting a bunch. Sydney, voce, Carolyn, and rodney aren't as active (from at least what I've seen)
I feel like Sydney and voce are both big wild cards. 
I want to work on game stuff with Stephanie but even last season it was kind of weird between us but I don't know if that's just a one sided thing.
For the most part I really like Mike, James, and Morgan as far as personal and game conversations.
This bounty twist, I have Michelle, I don't really see me being able to do much about that, she's a core person who is very liked so far, I wish I got someone easy like carolyn or rodney lmao, but I'll keep it in mind to see what can be done.

Okay that is all, I wanted to utilize this space more this season!!!

Miss you in this game lindsey, I hope I can make #halsey proud!

Miss you too girl! Kill it. Can't wait to see what you do in this game. 

So good to see you back Hali! Best of luck!
