Come on in guys!















Dan, Becky, and Debbie voted out at last night's Tribal Councils. Fifteen of you remain and the dynamics have shifted quite a bit.

Tonight you're playing for...
































































Tribal Immunity up for grabs! TWO tribes will win this challenge. One tribe will be going to Tribal Council tomorrow night, where they'll vote out their second member.

Tonight's challenge is called...



Here's how it works:

This challenge is slightly similar to the game Connect Four, only you'll be aiming to connect more than just four.

Below is a grid. The width is eight spaces and the height is limitless. All three tribes will share the same grid. Each tribe has an unlimited number of colored tiles matching the color of your tribe.





The goal of this challenge is to connect as many of your tiles as you can. To do this, you'll be sliding tiles from the top of the board so they fall and land at the bottom of that column.

If you have two tiles touching one another, that's two points. If you have eight tiles touching each other on one side of the board, and two on the opposite, that's ten points. Touching means directly next to or above/below, not diagonally. Beware, the opposite two tribes can attempt to block your points by surrounding one of your pieces with their own, blocking that piece from being able to connect with anything.

Here's an example of what a version of the board may look like:

Black has three points, purple has two, and green has two.

Placing Tiles

Every tribe member can make a move once an hour. Once you make a move, you can't make another until an hour later. That's a potential 60 moves for your tribe.

To make a move, copy the most up to date board image in paint, photoshop, pixlr, whatever you have. Choose your tribe's tile and paste it in the slot that you want. You cannot simply post where you want to make a move, you can only move by posting the image of the board with your update on it. We'll be cleaning up the board whenever we can to keep it organized. Just be aware of the moves that others have made and try to keep track in order to make the best move possible. Try your best to always make your move based off of the most recent update that someone makes.

Remember, GRAVITY! You can't place a tile floating at the top of the board. Every tile falls down to the bottom of the column, just like Connect Four.

Once every space on the original grid is filled up, a blank portion of the grid will be added to the top so that you can keep going higher.

Editing will be turned off for the duration of this challenge. If you post a move, you're stuck with it!


Smashing Tiles

As an added element, your tribe has the option of breaking any ONE tile currently on the board. You can break your own tile or either of the other tribe's tile. By breaking a tile, every tile in its column above it will fall, shifting the tiles and more importantly, the points.

Each tribe can only do this once. Be strategic about when and where you do it, because it could push things in your favor significantly if done right.

The challenge ends at 8:30, but you can only use your tribe's one smash by 7:00pm at the latest. To smash, simply post the most up to date grid and X out the tile you wish to break. Once any member of your tribe does this, that will count as your tribe's smash, even if you didn't all agree to it. Your tribe only gets one opportunity at this.

If you use your turn to smash a tile, that's your turn for the hour. Note, you don't have to update the board with the shifted tiles, we'll do that. All you have to do is X one out.

Here's an example of what a smashed tile may do to the board:

At the end of 24 hours, any of your tribe's tiles that are connecting to each other will score you points. The two tribes with the highest point total will win Immunity. The losing tribe will head to Tribal Council, where they'll vote someone out. Post any questions you may have below.

Survivor's ready?

GO!

CHALLENGE UPDATE!

From here on out, the entire current grid must be FILLED before you can stack higher than it. If/when every space has been filled up, a new, empty portion of the grid will be added to the top.

This is to prevent columns from soaring too high and making the images unbearable for us all to work with.

CARRY ON!

UPDATE

Hayden smashes a black tile, sliding that column down

(there was a left out Sebou tile at the top of this column)
