Racer's is the first to hit, and his breaks on the first hit. That was quite a throw. His puzzle pieces are coming down.
No one else close yet. And now Thomkal and Maple both have a hit. Thomkal manages to crack his. Maple's doesn't quite break however. It's going to need another hit. The rest are missing. It's harder than you think, the tile is not that large. Maple is next to get his pieces, his tile breaks on the second throw. It takes heybrad two hits to break his, but he's right behind. These four are finished first. The rest are still struggling. |
Darth hits it but his stone bounces off. Not a very strong throw there. Hoops just can't seem to get a hit. Chesapeake either. Darth makes some great thows, he just can't break it. There it finally breaks, took three hits there.
Hoops is right behidn. It only takes one solid hit for the Beast, just took him a while to get there. Chesapeake is still struggling though. Everyone has moved on but he's still throwing. He finally finishes, but it would take a miracle for him to catch up now. |
Racer is first digging for his key, tearing up a huge hole quickly. Thomkal is right there after him, digging, Racer hasn't found anything yet. And now Maple Leafs too, all three are digging. Racer has something! He's first to find his key, and on to the next part.
Heybrad is joining the mix now. And he finds his key almost right away! He's next to go after his puzzle pieces. Thomkal has a big hole dug, he seems to think he saw something but now can't find it. But he finally finds it again. He's starting in now. |
Maple Leafs is last of the initial four to find his. Darth still searching. Hoops is tearing up the sand with those big hands. He had a late start but he still beats Darth. Darth seems lost out there, can't find anything.
Chesapeake of course, just getting started after taking forever to get those puzzle pieces. Now he seems lost, all those holes, all that dirt flying, he looks utterly lost out there. He's got no clue where the key is. |
Now people have moved on to unlocking those bags and building their puzzle. Racer is first to get his open and he's putting it together. Struggling a little though. Brad doesn't start as soon but his puzzle is going together instantly. He's caught up with Racer and they both get their wheels together at the same time.

Clearly this game is rigged! |
Thomkal looked like he was going to have trouble with his but I think maybe he saw something there in what the others did, he's jut a heartbeat behind the first two. Maple has a knack for this, he puts his together right away, stays ahead of Hoopsguy in this but hasn't caught up with the top three. Hoops plugs away at his, finally gets it together. It's not going to get him to the top but he's far head of Darth and Chesapeake who have all but fallen out of this.
|
Now they've got to get that wheel on the pulley and crank down their planks. Doesn't take much strength but that's a lot of cranking. Racer and Heybrad are neck and neck, eyeing each other, each cranking like crazy. It's along way down though, their arms are tiring. Thomkal is next to get his on the pulley and he's just cranking like it's nothing, all that training of his paying off. He gets his down before the other two, pulling ahead!
Racer and Heybrad still neck to neck, now behind Thomkal. Maple shows up and goes to work on his. It's hard work. Not for The Beast though, Hoopsguy gets there behind Maple Leafs, but almost catches up, cranking that thing down fast as can be. We won't mention Darth and Chesapeake. |
The last stage is to use those planks, build something you can walk across on that rope bridge. Everybody's got a little different take on it, requires some thinking here, the best way to support your weight.
You've got to go slow here, figure out a plan. Racer is struggling, he's had the lead much of this time, but whatever he's doing there just isn't working. Thomkal just barely keeping in the front now, laying down those planks one at a time, crossing carefully. Heybrad's making a little bridge as well. Takes some time but gets him there. He's edging in front of Racer now. Maple Leafs is keeping ahead of Hoopsguy, who is struggling here as well. He falls behind with Darth and Chesapeake. Maple Leafs not quite up with the lead guys though. |
Across the rope bridge all that is left is a race across these suspended steps, hanging by ropes. They swing to the touch so you cannot go as fast as you want and avoid falling. As carefully and quickly as you can go you need to get across.
Thomkal is first to start off, picking his way across. And he's moving fast. Heybrad is next but he's not moving as fast, having to pause to keep the things from swinging. Racer is right behind him, and he lives up to his name, springing from one to the other, using his balance to launch before the thing starts swinging. He's making up ground, passing Heybrad. Maple and then Hoops are on there but they're not going ot catch the people in the lead. Darth and Chesapeake are not even going to get to the last race. |
It's down to Thomkal and Racer. Racer is catching up, springing from one to the next. Thomkal's moving along but it's going to be a photo finish. Only two more steps yet to go. And Racer has one ... two, he's across!!
RACER WINS THE CHALLENGE! |
Booyah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
And no, I really don't rig these things ;-) It's fun to watch the results come out though!
I'll be away from the computer for a few hours, so hopefully you guys can handle things. |
HEalth effects of shelter before you go?

You are a machine! Well done, again. |
Update... I've solved our system issues at work, so I will be back in full force with communciations.
|
I'm headed home. I'll see everyone at the council.
|
Congrats Racer, almost had you.
|
Your super fast camp results.
You just barely collect enough food to feed yourselves. There is nothing left over at the end of the day. Hoops tries throwing some new leaves on the roof to keep the shelter up, but they mostly just blow off and he's the only one trying. The shelter isn't quite as seaworthy as it was yesterday. You each lose 3 health points today. I will send out personal health totals in a few minutes. |
Haha, nobody did anything. Sounds like the old werewolf tribe.
|
I'm really surprised by the lack of lobbying there has been for my vote by the way. I think it's a mistake quite honestly.
Remember guys, that I won immuntiy today. :) One of you guys are going home. Aligning with me could be your ticket to the final 2 or 3. |
I really thought I was going to steal it until I got to the rope bridge.

I should have used the rope to hold back Racer. :) |
Sorry for the delay on health guys. I got pulled away to deal with kids. Health status is going out now.

I'm frankly surprised by the complete lack of PMs that I've seen today. I've sent out a couple over the last couple of days that have gone unanswered and that is a bit worrisome. |
Everyone should have their updated health.
|
Is Tribal not until 4:30 pm tomorrow?
|
Oh WTF.
No, that should not say that. |
Quote:
I only mention it because Sally Struthers and a camera crew are setting up at our camp right now. |
No Tribal Council is at regular time. I had some sort of sleep deprived brain fart there. Just think what kind of work my clients are getting! I hope everyone ignored that.
|
Come on in to Tribal Council. Take your torches and have a seat.
Let's bring in the members of our jury. SnDvls and Danny, Danny voted out last night. |
Racer has won the immunity necklace, again. No votes can be cast for Racer tonight.
So far this has been a game of Villagers against Werewolves, it seems, even after the merge. The last wolf has the immunity necklace tonight. What happens now? |
Your guess is as good as mine.
|
Last night Danny made a case for there having to be alliances among the Villagers. Are there alliances? What do people make a vote based on at this point in the game?
|
I think there is definitely some double talking going on with the villagers given the lack of villagers that approached me today.
|
I think many of the villagers think they don't need me as a vote. We'll see if they're right.
|
Of course there has to be some alliances at this point.
|
What do you base your vote on, Racer? How much of a challenge threat someone is, how they perform in camp, who you think they're allied to?
|
It'll be sad to vote out one of our own tonight, but full credit to Racer for saving himself two challenges in a row.
|
Anyone can win any challenge. We're all subjected to the same camp conditions so I don't care much about that. So it comes down to who I think is the biggest threat.
|
And what about you, Thomkal. If you have to vote out "one of your own" how do you decide who that is?
|
well at this point you have to vote out people not in your alliance and the biggest threat to you in the Final 3
|
Well, this should be one of the more interesting votes so far in this game. You've cast your votes. If somebody has a hidden immunity idol, now is the time to play it.
|
I'll read the votes. The first vote cast is for ...
Darth Vilus |
The second vote cast is ...
Hoopsguy |
The third vote is for ...
Hoopsguy That's 2 votes Hoopsguy, 1 vote Darth |
The fourth vote cast is for ...
