Hey Mas, if some other animal has already completed the race, and if hare is currently in the lead of the race, does having 4 hare cards prevent it from moving?

no, it can still move. it does not consider being in the lead as an animal has already finished.

Questions for this round: 1) What do you feel about this Main Match being a garnet match? I kinda half expected a garnet match to come, personally I didnt worry as much, but of course the concern is that I dont have the highest garnet counts after giving so many to Arnold. And Arnold is still at last place after however much I gave him . So that is kinda worrying, and the solution out of this problem was if I became first and Arnold became not last. Thats the only way to guarantee both of our safety. But otherwise, going into the MM I thought my garnet count gave me a decent buffer..... who knew I was wrong
2) What do you feel about the Main Match when it was revealed? This MM seems fun, its like horror race, yet not like horror race, and it definitely have plenty of room to work around. The roles are pretty interesting and I guess there are ways for each character to win it. So I was excited to wait for how everything turn out to be!
3) Did you feel okay getting your 1st bet animal? And what were your thoughts on choosing your 2nd animal? Fox was pretty good, at first glance, Fox is a relatively high mobility animal and could theoretically make its way to the end if the right cards were played. Well before the howl was announced the power rankings of animals are in this order: Lamb -> Hare -> Fox -> Tortoise -> Wolf
So I guess the logical choice to pick was Lamb since I thought it could move very fast. And I thought there would be enough people going for lamb such that lamb would be supported to win it. That is the reason why I went for lamb ultimately, the other other animal I was juggling with was hare. But i guess ultimately I went with Lamb instead because I thought it could move so much more.4) What was your strategy on playing your Main Match? Well, strategy for starters is to find out who picks what characters. Which I did managed to find out pretty easily.
Step 2, working with others who have a common role with me, which is lamb with Kevin, and fox with Trevor.
Step 3, be consumed and confused by the fear and paranoia that everyone except me picked hare.
That was pretty bad because there was a huge chance that everyone would push for a hare victory and putting me in a lot of jeopardy. Which leads to me pushing for any other animal to win.
Soooo much has happened this MM, well, there were 3 possibly candidates to win it, I could win it, Trevor could win it and Rexxy could win it.
Initially Rexxy approached me to push for me to win by making lamb move all the way up followed by fox so that i could overtake Trevor in terms of ranking. Then he'll get the token. This seems really possible... until Arnold pulled o
Then knowing that Trevor could actually win it. I approached him for safety, since i thought there was a huge chance hare could win it, since hare is slowly inching forward 2 steps at a time...
However, closer to the end, wolf managed to have a huge move, putting it in a good position, so I guess in the end I was trying to push for wolf to finish first, since that would made sure that I wont end up last right now and I thought Rexxy would then give me the token of life to keep me safe.
I guess ultimately, I end up going from having a chance to being at the top, to having a chance to being at the bottom,went through a hell load of roller coaster and ending up not having the safety. That is not a good feeling . And this was one of my most poorly played MM since I've been trying to make deals with everyone to help almost everyone, this end up burning myself and putting myself in various bad spots, I doubt this outcome is optimal for me
Well have to go to work for now, shall continue with the confessionals later.

Continuing with the confession... 5) What were your thoughts going into the endgame? I believe the endgame means towards the end of the game.. I was running countless scenarios closer to the end, by then I am no where in contention for the win, but I have a really really good chance of going to be last... damn hare.. why does it has so much power closer to the end .
I really need to check in with various people just to make sure that I'm safe 6) Were you surprised at the outcome of the Main Match? Yes! I still am sooo unsure what went on.. why did Arnold play 3 wolves, why did I not play 1 tortoise... so many weird moves, especially the former. But I could have done things so much differently.
Well, I kinda expect the end result the moment Arnold put down 3 wolves. Basically the end was figuring out who's last , somehow, me thinking that I cant help Arnold decided to go with putting hare, I guess that kinda changed the outcome by a lot . Definitely need to see the conversation going on between Rexxy and Kevin and Rexxy and Arnold to get an idea of what happened.7) What are your thoughts on Kevin getting the token? I was sooo confused. I thought Rexxy and I had a thing going on which was the reason why I got so comfortable and decided go really go support Rexxy and his victory. And then he gave it to Kevin. It's not about the safety I guess, since I know I wont be going for the DM with like 90% chance. But its more of the thought that he might leave me high and dry when the time I need safety, hence I do wonder if Rexxy and Kevin actually have the intention to go against me and was hoping that I go to the DM this round.
Well, it's about time that they turned on me and I guess its time to fight back . Still not sure what's going on for sure, but I'm definitely keeping an eye on both of them. I want to make sure that they are not in the position to come against me for now. Well Rexxy said that he didnt choose me because he thought Arnold wont pick me, but I'm not sure what he was thinking in his mind, either he meant that, or he doesnt mind me going to the DM because it's like eliminating a threat to him. Guess I'll have to look at Rexxy's confessional at the end of the season.... well... first time vulnerable but yet safe .
8) Did you have any hesitation that Arnold might chose you for the Death Match? Not sure if you ask everyone this every round, really not used to this HAHA! I almost have no hesitation because I know of the deal Arnold and I have for the past couple months, and I seriously think that we're good. Well, he did ask me whether i want to goto the DM, but heck no! I would love to play a game with him someday, but not at final 5 in a DM context for now...
I certainly believe that Arnold wouldnt pick me right now because it makes more sense for us to work together moving onwards for this game, there's still alot of game to be played right now, and certainly a tight partnership would help a lot in F4 and beyond...
So I guess, I agree to his request, I believe he wont be picking me for now hehe. That's a perk of having a strong social game with enough people I guess 9) Who are you rooting for to stay in the Death Match? Definitely Arnold (sorry Trevor! He has been nice to me and offered me safety for this round but I kinda left him out in the open to hang... Gosh, if he lose I'd feel sobad hahha)
I guess working with Arnold would have such a huge advantage right now.. especially now that I'm not sure if I can trust Rexxy and Kevin as much. And I talked to Trevor the least, so I guess it's bettter for me to talk to Arnold since he give me more to work with..
But whoever is staying, I'm definitely trying to work with them a hell lot to make sure to pit him against Rexxy and Kevin, and meanwhile I'm still trying to see if I can repair relationships with Kevin and Rexxy, as much as possible to turn them against each other right now. Final 4 baby! things are getting tough right now but it's so close till the end and I'm really excited to see how everything turns out to be!! Let's hope I can pull off some great performance for the next couple games to make up for my really really poor performance for this MM.

Hey Mas, I'll be going to Malaysia from tonight to Wednesday evening, will try to find Wi-Fi if possible, but probably would be slow. Let's hope the next MM wouldn't have started, so that it doesnt affect the flow of the game. But shall see what I can do.
If anything, could you leave a message to everyone for me? Appreciate it!
"Going overseas for around 2 days. Trying to get Wi-Fi if possible. If the MM has been revealed, hit me up for anything!"
