Immunity Challenge #5
Welcome to tod.......wait.......do you guys feel that. That.......that breeze, oh man these winds are picking up. You know what that means...
DROP YOUR BUFFS
We are switching tribes. Each tribe was responsible for selecting a tribe captain. Jaclyn and Alec were chosen and were responsible for selecting the new tribes. They alternated choosing from the opposite tribe and from their own. Here is how the tribes shook out.
Bob
Courtney
Jaclyn
Morgan
Pete
Sandra
Alec
Brenda
Cao
Cochran
Elyse
Hope
Jefra
Your new tribe camps will be set up shortly. Graphics will be updated throughout the evening
_______________________________________________________
Now onto today's challenge titled "Face Off", which will test your ability to endure.
You will each be holding yourselves up on 3 ledges each varying in sizes. The first is a large ledge, fairly easy to stand on. The second slightly smaller than the first and a little more challenging. The final ledge is significantly smaller than the first, and much more difficult to keep your balance.
To begin the challenge you must post the following phrase:
(Castaway) steps onto ledge #1.
You will spend the first 30 minutes of the challenge on the first ledge, the next 30 minutes on the second ledge, and the remainder of the challenge on the final ledge.
On the first ledge you will have to post the following phrase every 10 minutes for 30 minutes, which will be 3 times:
(Castaway) is balanced on ledge #1.
On the second ledge you will have to post the following phrase every 5 minutes for 30 minutes, which will be 6 times:
(Castaway) is balanced on ledge #2.
On the final ledge you will have to post the following phrase every minute until you fall off:
(Castaway) is balanced on ledge #3.
There is no break in between ledges, if you do not post at the correct times you will be out of the challenge. You are NOT allowed to modify posts.
Here is an example of how this will look time wise:
10:00 - Jeff steps on to ledge #1.
10:10 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #1.
10:20 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #1.
10:30 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #1.
10:35 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
10:40 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
10:45 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
10:50 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
10:55 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
11:00 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #2.
11:01 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #3.
11:02 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #3.
11:03 - Jeff is balanced on ledge #3.
...
Now the reason this challeng is called "Face Off" is because you will be competing to beat someone from the opposing tribe to score a point for your own tribe. The face offs were chosen by Jaclyn and Alec as leaders and are as follows:
Jaclyn vs Alec
Sandra vs Cao Boi
Pete vs Jefra
Morgan vs Cochran
Bob vs Hope
Courtney vs Elyse
Sitout: Brenda
The tribe with the most points by the end of the challenge wins Immunity. If there is a tie the tribe with the person who lasted the longest overall will win Immunity.
That's not all though, if you think the tribe swap was the only twist coming your way with this challenge you are mistaken. There are two more. First, the individual that lasts the longest on the losing tribe will also win Immunity, and the individual that lasts the longest on the winning tribe will get to attend Tribal Council with the losing tribe.
Also the member of the winning team that attends the losing tribes Tribal Council will bring with them the following message in a bottle to be opened after the vote is revealed.
You have until Sunday January 18th at 6:00pm EST to complete this challenge. This challenge is to be done in your confessionals. There's a lot at stake with this one so make sure you give it all you got!
Since there was a tribe swap this round, no powers from Treasure Trove can be used at this challenge.
Good luck everyone!
Survivors ready? GO!
