[Austin Carty]

1. I have read the confessional guidelines, and I the little hamster on the wheel running in my head seems to have acknowledged it.

2. I found the ad on the Epic SBB forum.

3. I selected Austin for a variety of reasons. First, and least relevant, he's a writer, which is something I want to do and a profession I see myself in. More importantly, he's the right balance of threatening and non-threatening. He made it decently far into the game, being the first member of the jury. It's good to not do a pre-merge boot, because then you may be seen as less serious than others, but if you choose an obvious persona, like a winner or huge player, than you may be seen as less competent because you appear to have a lesser breadth of knowledge.

4. I do not know anyone else playing the game, so no pre-game alliances it seems, haha.

5. The alphabet strategy, of course. In all seriousness, you can't have a set strategy in a game like this. Flexibility is the name of the game, and I'll adjust to how my competition acts.
