ROUND SIX: A TRUE TEST
Come on in, guys! Burton voted out at the last Tribal Council.
Immunity is back up for grabs!
But before we get to that...
TWIST TIME!
TWIST TIME!
Today, you will be competing for individual immunity. That's because both tribes are going to Tribal Council, and someone from each tribe will be voted out. It's not *really* a twist since you all know how this works, so why elaborate?
The challenge is easy. Okay, it sounds easy, but it takes forever.
You will start by merely posting once in your confessional. After that, you will post a minute later. Your next post will be two minutes after the second, your third will be three minutes after the third, etc. See where I'm going? You need to add a minute to each of your posts and go for as long as you can. Post content does not matter. Feel free to count or plan stuff out for your reference. Do NOT post early, since if you do and don't catch it, that counts against you.
If you start at 10:00, for instance, your posting schedule will be like so:
10:00
10:01
10:03
10:06
10:10
10:15
10:21
10:28
10:36
10:45
10:55
Etc.
10:01
10:03
10:06
10:10
10:15
10:21
10:28
10:36
10:45
10:55
Etc.
Keep going for as long as you can. There is NO cap on how long between posts you must wait, so if you think it's a reasonable enough timeframe for a catnap, go ahead and snooze. Just be sure to not sleep through your alarm.
If you post and it is NOT on your time (as in, if you post a schedule 10 minutes early for your reference), I'll count that is a mistake. You HAVE to be precise here. If you want to do a schedule, post it on time or keep it in Notepad or on a Post-It or something.
You each are allowed a mulligan - one time where you can mess up (miss or modify a post, or make an extra one) and it won't count against you. You are allowed to delete posts as you please, but you are not allowed to modify them. If your post is early, delete it. If your post is on time, don't delete it. Because if it's not there when I go to tally, then you'll have burned your mulligan or dropped out.
You have until 8 PM Eastern time tomorrow to start this challenge. That's 23 hours. However, I will allow people to go until 11 PM Eastern tomorrow as long as they started the challenge on time. So, in reality, you have 26 hours to complete your submission.
The person who goes for the longest on each tribe wins immunity and is safe from Tribal Council. They will also attend the other tribe's Tribal Council and be able to vote there as well. So you're playing for a bit of a reward too!
If you have any questions, I will be here for a while, but I might go to bed early since I haven't been feeling the greatest today. Have fun, and happy enduring! Survivors ready? GO!
