Well, finally the next challenge. I was starting to get bored for having nothing to do, so I'll have plenty of time for this game.

Let's hope it doesn't drive me mad, because I'm home alone until Tuesday and boredom will be overpresent

I wonder if somebody else will sit out. The hidden clue is kind of tempting, but I'm better at videogames than quizzes so I'm staying yes or yes.

I'll sit out for this.

Don't forget confessionals everyone. I have about half of them this time, this is the first time I've had so few. You were all doing so well!

Also, it is now too late to opt into sitting out for an idol clue. Gamer and Surgiac will get the clue, post-challenge.

And it seems the Harte Arbeit tribe walks away victorious! You know what this means...

Narr
- Answer the confessionals that will be sent to your PM Box momentarily.
- Prepare to vote out a member of your tribe. You will be given 24 hours to consider your vote, and then 48 additional hours to cast it. I will try to PM you once the 24 hours are up to let you know when it is time to vote.

- Answer the confessionals that will be sent to your PM Box momentarily.

Also, hidden immunity idol clues will be sent to both Surgiac and gamerforlifeforever.

(Also, somebody post in the thread so I don't get the whole "YOUVE POSTED TOO MANY TIMES" thing that shouldn't exist)

Sick, we won! Good job guys. Now we're in the driver seat in this shindig, and I'm totally not talking more to bump for Leggy.

Okay, now I got the hang of this competition: we alternate between a good and enjoyable game with a painful game. This means that the next challenge should be something good, but will this tradition be kept forever?

It will be interesting to see if those with clues to the hidden immunity idol can make a big discovery. Looks like off-challenge things are also becoming a tradition as of the last weeks, so we never know when a twist may happen.

EX Palen : Ms.Pacman is a pretty solid game in my opinion. The only problem is the awful hitboxes for the ghosts. Its so frustrating trying to eat them.

Blubcreator : The problem might be the Game Gear, though. I've played other Pacman games and I didn't feel too uncomfortable with them.

But yeah, the hitboxes were awful. Even when vulnerable, it was almost better to avoid ghosts lol

My WiFi is down, so I might not be too active right now. My dad is trying to get it to work, but it might be a day or so before I can answer the confessionals. I can't deal with doing it on mobile.

COME ON IN GUYS.

Harte Arbeit, getting your first look at the new Narr tribe, megamanmaniac voted out at the last tribal council.

Ready to get to today's challenge?

...

No you aren't.

Drop your buffs. We're merging.

-----

OK, so you will be wearing yellow, and your tribe name is unnamed. That's because you, as a group, will come up with it, leaving suggestions here until you come up with an answer as a plurality.

While you are doing that, you will compete in your first individual immunity challenge. Unlike in the past, where the worst players could stay safe if they had a strong teammate, you will be unable to do so, this time. Only one player can win this challenge, and thus, only one person will be safe at the next Tribal Council.

Here's the challenge.

You will put together this Slide Puzzle as fast as you can. Instead of submitting your score in this thread, you will submit it to my PM Box, to keep it safe from everyone else. Once you have submitted a screenshot, you cannot submit another, the first PM you send me with a score, is the last one. You can hold off until the last day to submit, but you run the risk of forgetting, because I WILL NOT be reminding you this time. You can submit early, but you run the risk of it being a lower score than if you played longer.

The rules of the puzzle are simple. You click pieces to move them to the open spot. The puzzle is finished when it resembles the logo from this season.

Once you are completed, it will take you to a score certificate. You are to send me a copy of your score certificate (I recommend screenshotting it, and saving the image to imgur!)

Your finished submission should look like this:



You will note, I have my name (legacyme3) a score, and a time.

In the case of a TIE (time), SCORE will be the tiebreaker. If we are still tied after score, the contestants will both/all win immunity.

I did this on a whim, and solved it in 90 seconds. This is not a difficult puzzle. I intentionally made it easy enough to solve in a short period of time, but difficult enough that you might have to work for it.

Additionally, there's a twist.

For anyone who elects, to instead do the 5x5 puzzle (instead of the 4x4), you will be given a clue to a hidden immunity idol.

Challenge starts now. You have until Wednesday night, November 9th, at 11:59 PST to submit your score to me, via PM.

New confessionals are on the way out, shortly.

Would Photobucket work or does it have to be Imgur?

I'm excited that the merge is finally here! Now things will get very interesting, I'm looking forward to seeing how everything will play out the next few weeks.

Surgiac :

It can be any image hosting site. I only recommend imgur because it's what I use, but as long as the image stays up for the duration of the competition, it doesn't truly matter where.

I'm going to extend the window until tomorrow, at noon PST.

I won't spoil how many submissions I've gotten. All I'll say is it is greater than 0, and less than 9, meaning at least one of you is winning, and at least one of you haven't passed in a submission.

So you have until tomorrow at noon.

Why am I extending it? Frankly, too f***ing emotionally exhausted to stay up another 2 hours.

"Leggy, Leggy, I think I've got it!" someone shouts with jubilation, believing they have solved the slide puzzle in a blistering pace.

"Everyone stop!" everyone stops working on their puzzles while Leggy runs over to check the puzzle of Furret.

After a tense few moments where he looks at the puzzle to make sure it is completed, Leggy raises his arms:

"FURRET WINS IMMUNITY"



"Come on over."

Furret walks proudly over to Leggy.

"Tonight, one of you 9 will be going home, but it won't be Furret. Grab your things, go back to camp, I'll see you all at Tribal in a couple days."

UNNAMED TRIBE - seriously, if you do not come up with a tribe name, I have to.

Furret :  Hochgeschwindigkeitszug sounds good to me.
