Come on in guys!







By now you've all checked-in, gotten to know one another a bit, and read the game's intro. I'm sure you're all anxious for your tribes, so let's get right to it...















All twenty-two of you will be competing individually in the Captain's Challenge. We'll be playing the classic Sausage Toss! Here's how it works.

I'm sure you've all seen my beautiful signature by now. You'll be using the dancing Lex sausage in this challenge.

All twenty-two of you are in an arena. At 8:30, the sausage will be released in the middle. The first person to post "[Name] claims sausage" will pick it up. If no one claims within five minutes, it will be randomly distributed to one of you.

Once you have the sausage, you must toss it away to another player, just like hot potato. You have THREE minutes to toss the sausage away. If you don't throw it in time, you will be eliminated.

To throw it, you must post the following:

:name: :saus: :name:

The first name will be yours, 'saus' must say 'sausage' instead, and the second name will be whoever you are throwing to. If done right, it will look like this:




Angie would then have three minutes to throw to someone else from the SECOND that Abi threw. She can throw it back to Abi, or she can choose someone else. If Angie does not throw in time, the sausage will drop. The first to claim it will pick it up and have three minutes to throw. The timing will be using seconds, so if it's thrown to you at 9:00:21 you must toss it by 9:03:21

At 9:30, once one hour has gone by, the time limit will go down to two minutes. At 10:30, it will go down to just one minute.

Slowly but surely, players will fall out of the challenge. The last TWO players standing will each become a Sausage Captain. The two will join Brett and I on AIM and will take part in a tribe pick'em.

FURTHERMORE! The two Captains will each receive an advantage in the game. Besides shaping the two tribes, each Captain will be given one extra move per round in the hunt for a Hidden Immunity Idol, offering them a slight advantage over the rest.

If you have any questions, please post them in this thread. We'll be monitoring the challenge as it goes and will be posting updates. You may begin right at 8:30.

Survivor's ready?

GO!

Russell is eliminated.

The sausage is up for grabs!
