Round 1: Return of the King
I'm gonna post everything in one thread this time, but it'll be labeled. Don't worry, I got this.

All I want in life is episode titles, and I'd love getting the first episode title of this season. Why? I got the first one in Greece, I'm easily one of the most entertaining players the series has ever had and I love the hosts. Jumping back into a series I helped co-host in Bermuda and Japan/one I helped host in Egypt will be weird. I've either played with or seen everyone play in the cast, so that's an advantage for me. I've been active in the community, so I have closer bonds I can work with, but at the same time I carry a threat status. Some people from Greece might want revenge, people from other seasons will want to take out the host, and the people involved on the community least of all will see me as one of the most active members, so it's a toss up. I might do a great job, or I might do a bad job...but that's implying I'm going to try. I have no plans on actually winning, or even trying for that matter. I'm just here to have fun, and putting in the work to win just seems no fun. I'd rather fuck around for awhile and see how long I last.
I think it's fair to say I'm the Richard Hatch of the series. I didn't win, but I brought a lot of what Hatch did to the table. Cocky, arrogant, entertaining, and a tremendous player. (Until I voted out all of my allies, but that's not the point) In Round 6 of Greece, I named myself the king, and that wasn't a far-off statement. I ran the show, had everyone I needed either under my thumb or in my pocket, and tore it up for awhile. Clearly Jeremy and Aras agreed, and my tagline was "The King". I'm the King of Greece, no doubt there. Since then, upstarts have tried to jack my title or make theirs sound cooler like JFP's "The Emperor of Japan", Eliza's "The Gawdess of Japan", and Malcolm's "The God of Bermuda". None of those titles were appointed to them, or even accurate in their respective seasons. Alina earned hers, Dolly/CC both earned theirs, and JFP did as the main source of entertainment and drama in the game, but it shouldn't be self-appointed. Only I can crown people. It's part of the get-up.
I specifically requested confessional access early because I want to A. Get my post count up, B. Find a reason to visit the board more and C. Pure 2 sucks ass and I need a game where I can write confessionals and actually enjoy myself in. My plan in this game will be Dr. Sean's Alphabet Strategy. That ugly, ugly man and his creepy nipple ring (and Teresa) have inspired me to vote people out, from first name to last name. Easy. I have the blueprint for how I'll be doing things, so let's get to it. I'll post a full cast analysis when the cast is finalized, and do what I do best. Rank them. Give every person an edgic rating, describe how they play, talk about possible allies they might land Day 0, and give them where I think they'll end up going home. I know the usual clowns will be here, like Alina, Austin, Kass, JFP, and Teresa. A lot of people have signed up and registered on the board, but how many of them will be here when it's game time? Back-ups are supposedly being hired for Bermuda and Japan due to flakiness there, and let's be real, those are currently the bottom two seasons of the series. Egypt has an unlikable winner but a great cast and a lot of great moments, as the number one season. Greece is at two with a good cast minus a few very inactive players (Jay, Sabrina, Julie) and a very fun post-merge with a fun pre-merge. Bermuda has my favorite tribe ever in Dampier, and a kickass pre-merge with a pretty good cast, but a pretty boring post-merge. It's not a bad season by any means, it's still good - after we've had 12 seasons, Bermuda will be 6th best. Mark my words. Japan is the worst easily, with a mediocre cast, public rule-breaking, and a boring post-merge where gamebots fought other gamebots and killed each other while the OTTrio made the F3.
Anyway, that's enough from me for now. If there is an edgic, and you better be making one, I'll try and hog as much airtime as I can. Slap a CPN on me with a beautiful shade of purple (or that red if you just use default colors), and I'll be satisfied for life. This is Killa B, Brian of House Corridan, the King of Greece and future King of Sicily, signing off.
