It's WAY past due for Challenge orders to be in.

For every hour they are late, starting 1 hour from now, the late team will suffer a -1 Morale Penalty.
Only someone with this much power could make this many frittatas without breaking any eggs.

"Survivors ready.... go!" And everyone takes off.

"Pensador's got Tulas Shorn in the ball and they're off down the course! Ruse is struggling to get a place on that ball, they're just pushing it too hard for him to keep up. It's a team challenge guys! Dureza's got a lot of good teamwork going on their side... good even pushing!"

"Ok, Alkend, push your side a bit... now Serc, you push. OK, Alkend and Barghast now... Serc and Anomandaris..." Kalse's voice comes across smoothly and calmly, even as he's suspended upside-down in the ball.

"Dureza making some good progress. They look really well prepared for this one! But Pensador's starting to click now!"

"Liosan, go go... Ruse, hold on a minute. I said wait! Ok, Gamelon and Eloth, together now... around the tree. Ruse, now push! Yeah, go!" Tulas Shorn's orders start to fall into place.

"Pensador trying to catch up... ooo! But Dureza's really not giving up! Kalse acts like he's done this before... the whole tribe is clicking! Pensador starting to look a little tired out there... maybe they need a little more sleep."

"Thanks, Jeff..." Tulas mumbles.

"Dureza moving along really well... they're almost through. Pensador starting to fall behind. Ruse looks exhausted. Liosan is getting tired. Eloth's having trouble staying in it... Dureza's still going full steam... and they're at the end! You gotta get Kalse moved into position so he can see the maze!"

"C'mon guys..." says Eloth, "Let's go..." Tulas follows with, "We can still win this!"

Meanwhile, Kalse has been placed upright and now begins supervising the blindfolded maze movers. "Merrid, lift your end... good, now put it even. D'riss, your turn now. You've got it... OK, good work. Now Merrid you're going left and D'riss you're going right... ready, set..."

Jeff keeps an eye on the scene. "Pensador finally getting to the end... they are way behind! Kalse really moving his tribe along... Pensador getting Tulas Shorn into position."

Tulas says, "Ok, Okaros, move yours left, no right... Karatallid... hold on a minute!"

"This challenge is almost a blow out... Dureza really close... they're on the last turn..." The ball slides a few inches and drops down a hole. "Dureza wins reward!"




"Dureza, congratulations, you have a fun afternoon planned ahead. Enjoy it. Pensador... got nothin' for you. Grab your stuff, head back to camp."

Dureza gains +1 Morale for winning the Reward.

Challenges will be reopened later for another Challenge later this afternoon.

"C'mon in guys!" Jeff Probst signals everyone to join him for the next Challenge. Players join him. The Dureza tribe is looking very pleased with themselves.

"OK guys, ready to get to today's challenge?" "Yeah!" "Alright, but first things first..." Jeff approaches Okaros and then Merrid, taking their necklaces back with him. "Today, Individual Immunity is not up for grabs. Instead..." he picks up the familiar totem, "Tribal Immunity is back on the line."

"Today, you will divide your tribe up into groups of players. Two players will man a large slingshot and a pile of bean bags. Everyone else will be assigned to a single post on the beach. Each post will have one member from each tribe on it, and these members will each have a net. They are arranged thusly (1 and 2 are the shooters, the letters are the posts).

1         D        
         B    
        A 
         C    
2         E


"On my go, the shooters will load a bean bag and fire it at one of the five posts. The two players at that post will have a chance to catch it. It doesn't matter which bag you catch, your bags or your opponents' bags all count the same. The first team to catch five bags wins immunity and is safe tonight. Losers going to Tribal Council with me where one of you will be voted out."

"I'll give you a few minutes to strategize and then we'll get started."




You have entered into an Immunity Challenge.

1) Two players must man a bean bag launcher. This task appears to have no particular skill associated with it.
2) Every other player will take one post (A, B, C, D, E) and attempt to catch bean bags. This appears to favor Strength.
3) After both teams have designated their post players, each team must submit (privately, in the Tribe Thread) 15 targets, determining the order in which they will shoot their bean bags. Targets may be selected back-to-back, if desired, although there is a penalty (see below).
4) Each team must also submit (also privately) 15 "enemy" targets, which is a guess at the targets, in order, that you think the enemy team will shoot at.
5) If you correctly guess the enemy team's target on any particular shot, your team gets to make the first attempt to catch the bag.
6) If a bag is missed by the first person at the post, the other person gets a shot at catching it, too.
7) If a target makes two catch attempts back-to-back, without rest, the target gets a -1 penalty on the next roll. This will stack up for each consecutive roll that player makes. Each "round" of rest will let that player remove 2 points of this penalty.
7a) Ex: A player tries to make a catch in one attempt. The next attempt, a bag is flung in their direction. If the player makes an attempt on it (which they will automatically do if they are first OR if the first person misses), that player suffers a -1 Penalty on the next roll.
7b) If two bags simultaneously come at the same post, it counts as if only one bag were made at the post. However, if the first bag is caught, the player who caught it may not attempt to catch the second bag.
8) First team to 5 bags, regardless of bag color, wins. If two teams make it to 5 simultaneously, we will have a sudden-death tie-breaker using the existing rotation.

So when you say select targets you are talking about A, B, C, D or E right? Not specific players

Do we pick targets based on the rosters posted on this thread or just pick letters without knowing who is where?
