Tribal Council #13

[Jeff Probst]

Let's welcome the members of the jury...

ARTIS, TINA, MORGAN, BRENDAN, and... ERINN, voted out last tribal council!

*Colby has immunity*

This is the first time we're doing a non live tribal council this season, I am not sure of my availability tomorrow, because I have a family thing. Here's how it will work :

Answer to all tribal council questions in here. Have your confessionals/interviews finished by the deadline, and send your vote to me by PM. Please use the BOARD, in case I would post results by mobile. Your vote must be casted BEFORE the deadline and you can change it anytime you want until deadline, I will post results as early as I can starting on midnight. In the event of a tie, there will be a challenge between the tied people.

Woah, Final four! SHIRIN, did you expect to make it this far in the game?

COLBY, with immunity, you have a lot more options than others do! Does that make your decision difficult tonight?

SHIRIN, on the other hand, you have only two options : Alina, and Cassandra. What are the positive points on keeping both of them?

CASSANDRA, what kind of player is the most dangerous at this point of the game?

ALINA, do you think alliances matter anymore at this point?

CASSANDRA, do you think you figured out the pairs that want to make it to the end together?

ALINA, this game is almost over, and there are more jurors than there are players left in the game. Do you think you've had a good impression on the jury so far?

COLBY, if you make it to the end, what do you think jury will think of your game?

COLBY, you have individual immunity, as always you can give it up to somebody else if you choose to, otherwise it is yours and you are SAFE?

DEADLINE = Next midnight! Not going to confuse you with the day of the week on this one!

[Cassandra]

CASSANDRA, what kind of player is the most dangerous at this point of the game?

Probably someone with a lot of time and patience, since the next challenge will most likely be endurance!

CASSANDRA, do you think you figured out the pairs that want to make it to the end together?

I think I have, yes.

[Alina]

ALINA, do you think alliances matter anymore at this point?

Absolutely, even at the final 4, all though its an individual game you have people you want to go to the end with and have formed a mutual bond. I think to go further you'd have to have an alliance, otherwise a 2 or a 3 is a lot better than a 1.

ALINA, this game is almost over, and there are more jurors than there are players left in the game. Do you think you've had a good impression on the jury so far?

I think I've had some good times with most of them, some were more brief than others but I just hope they'd appreciate my game so far. I may have hurt some feelings but you have to hope they don't take it personally and looked at it game wise.

[Colby]

COLBY, with immunity, you have a lot more options than others do! Does that make your decision difficult tonight?

Maybe a little bit. We only have two more days and every scenario is important.

COLBY, if you make it to the end, what do you think jury will think of your game?

Well I hope they think I'm playing a solid and loyal game so far and that I'm giving my all in these cruel challenges you give to us

COLBY, you have individual immunity, as always you can give it up to somebody else if you choose to, otherwise it is yours and you are SAFE?

I'mmm gonna keep it haha

[Shirin]

SHIRIN, did you expect to make it this far in the game?
no and by all rights I really shouldn't be here!

SHIRIN, on the other hand, you have only two options : Alina, and Cassandra. What are the positive points on keeping both of them?
I think everyone sees Cassandra as a massive jury threat. she's by far overcome the most adversity to make it here which I imagine would earn her major plus points at FTC. I personally really like Cassandra, and that's why I'd want to keep her. I like Alina too though so

[Jeff Probst]

We are tied!

You know the rules, we'll go down to a fire-making challenge. This is going to be a stressful one! Alina and Cassandra, you will contact me on AIM at the SAME TIME. I don't care at what time of the day, just find a common time as early as possible. This round has felt like forever to me... It will be a live duel on AIM, in a private chatroom with the three of us in order not to be interrupted by anyone. Others will also get an update on the tie-breaker as it goes on. The duel goes this way :

Each round, I will show you a series of 9 letters, like : [.U] [D] [G] [W] [X] [Y] [Y] [.B]

You want to reply as many of those letters as possible (one letter per entry). However, each letter can only be used once by the both of you, so first person to shout that letter, gets it. If a letter appears twice, it can be gotten twice. So the player to get five or more of those letters win the round.

Everytime you succeed a round against your opponent, you get one step closer to making your fire. Steps are :

1. You get sparks.
2. Steam comes off the coconut husk and you're blowing on it.
3. You get your first flame in your coconut husk.
4. Your flame gets bigger.
5. You begin adding wooden kindlings.
6. You finish your tipi.
7. Fire gets higher, at the level of the rope.
8. The fire burns through the rope = You win!

Alina says she is only available Monday, starting at 12pm.
Cassandra says she is available on Monday, but I don't know what range of time.
So if you guys can be around after 12pm, we could do the tie-breaker challenge then.

As for the three remaining players that there will be after that, I am thinking of holding the final immunity challenge on Monday evening, following the rites of passage and a quick interview with the three of you. It's an endurance challenge that is a classic to this series... but not this typical challenge that you're thinking of! It's live, and is much harder than you think. Despite a strong battle, it never lasted more than two hours in two seasons. So unless you beat that record, I guess it's over by that time. I am thinking 7pm in case it would last a while. But if that's too early, let me know, and I may push the time of the challenge.

[Alina]

Good luck Cass!

[Cassandra]

Thanks Alina, good luck to you too!! I'm free after 6pm!

[Shirin]

good luck gals <3

[Shirin]

p.s. 7pm Monday is a-ok by me

[Colby]

Good luck! Yes, 7 is great

[Shirin]

oops I take that back maybe. I just saw we were doing RoP and interviews first. I work this morning (I'm in a totally different timezone) so idk if I'll be around for the couple of hours before the challenge

[Alina]

Ya know, im not bitter. I'm not going to make it to a live tie breaker. I thought everything was happening earlier and I don't care enough to keep going out of my way for wifi and shit, it's like I only have windows and it's too much. I think duels don't have to be live but it's cool. Cass can have it, I hope you win same goes to you Shirin. Colby good luck but I hope you made a dumb move and only get Brendan's vote because he isn't here to change his bootlist. Good luck all 3. I'm outtie 5,000

Shirin, you're my hero

[Jeff Probst]

Alina has decided to give up on this tie-breaker. No need to do the fire-making challenge. Cassandra, you survive another day.

Alina, you may bring me your torch now!



Alina, tribe has spoken!

Now as to whether Alina is considered a quitter and if she has a jury vote or not, this will not be considered a quit, because we had gone through the process of a vote, and she received the votes that could send her home.

Definition of quitter is someone who leaves the game by themselves without the regular process of a vote.

This will save her jury vote, and she remains a juror.
