Tribemembers! Meet me at the hot springs for cold cocktails this evening. We will study this petit défi de langue and plan to regain supremacy over St'balla, a curse on their sunblock.
When the Survivor producers asked me to do a celebrity guest appearance I said, "Mais, Oui!" ... but I didn't sign up for this dimensional instability! I don't know how Tyroc takes this place.
Well, I intend to flee, but you contestants don't have it so easy. The only way to complete the Immunity Challenge is to jump right into that thing and find your way out the other side.
To begin with, as we say in Côte d'Ivoire:
- D'abord vous devez aller au site Web qui s'appelle en vivant entre mercredis.
- Once there, find the post from June 11th of this year
- The first hyperlink within that post will bring you to a second blog. Well... click it!
- Once at your second destination, find the post from August 30th of this year. Scroll to the comments section.
- The first commentator is a character from the Legion mythos... click his screen name.
- This will bring you to the third blogger's profile. Search this site for a link to his eponymously named blog. You guessed it, click that link.
- On this blog, there is a section called "Fanboy Culture". In this section, find the second link that begins with the word, "Legion," then click, baby, click.
- You are now at your fourth blog. Find the entries from August 5th of this year, and locate the one whose title begins with an "S." Click on the first hyperlink in that entry.
- Last Stop... Almost Home! At the 5th and final blog, locate the entry from June 2nd of this year. Contained therein is a sound file.
- Listen to the affiliated sound file with the aim to answer this question: "With what does he battle the Super-Menace?"
Once you think you have the correct answer to the above question, send a PM to Exnihil with your answer.
DO NOT POST IT ON THE BOARD!
Again, to do so means immediate disqualification from this challenge for your entire team.
The first poster to PM with the correct answer will earn 12 points, the second 11, the third 10, and so on. Incorrect answers will earn 0 points.
The challenge will end when a clear winning team is established (i.e., when subsequent posters would no longer affect the final scoring outcome) though a 24 hour maximum will be set. The winning team gets Immunity, and a day off at camp. The losing team... goes to Tribal Council, and decides who is going home.
As the St'balla tribe won flight rings in the first Reward Challenge, they have the added benefit to "fly over" the first clue... in other words, they should stand by for a PM with a translation of the first clue coming in a few seconds.
Survivors ready... ALLEZ!!!

home to the wonderful podcasts created by Legion World's own, veryvery. There they would have learned that Superboy "battles the Super-Menace with a Super-Shout," proof-positive that Tyroc's reality altering sonic powers not only had precedent... but... actually... would have been a disqualifying duplication of pow... eh, don't think about it.
So, St'balla had a head start, having won the previous challenge. Did it make the difference?
Apparently not, as N'hura's Quislet was the first to check in with the right answer, earning 12 points.
But, hot on his tail was St'balla's Davey Fairplay, also on the board with 11.
10 and 9 points went to Lard Lad and Floating Foxlike Creature, respectively, ringing in within moments of one another. Good team work, guys.
8 was earned by Gamara, redeeming himself from the last challenge.
7 and 6 went, in order to Fat Cramer and Lance, but... too late.
St'balla had earned 38 points, and even if all the next entries are N'hura, the most they can earn is 37, so, that means:
St'balla Wins Immunity!
St'balla, head on back to camp, and rest up tonight. We'll see you again on Friday. N'hura, I'm sorry, that means that you're heading to Tribal Council tonight.
Head on back, and start thinking about which one of your tribe-mates:
is going home. Keep your eyes peeled this evening for instructions on Tribal Council.

Well, it's been a rough couple of days for this tribe. A little bit of confusion and a lack of team work showed through in the first Reward Challenge... and the absence of quite a few tribe members hurt you today in the Immunity Challenge.
As you're learning, the island of Marzal is quite a bit unstable in both space... and time. We here at Survivor have studied these anomalies and designed our game to make the best of the time and space shifts in order to best be fair to all players.
Some Challenges will be in the morning, some at night, some over the course of the day, but hopefully, over all, everyone gets an opportunity to shine when a challenge best synchs up to their own personal schedule.
But... all of that is in the future.
The task before us right now is the least enjoyable part of the game... when someone finds out they're going home.
You've known each other on the island for a couple of days now and, hopefully, are beginning to get an idea of each other's strengths, weaknesses, playing styles, and how best to work together.
With that in mind, although I am going to ask each of you to cast a vote over the next day, I do want to give each of you the opportunity to post one statement. It may be as long or as short as you like, and make take whatever form you like. You may make your own case for staying... or make a case for another leaving... or both... or neither... but take the next six posts,
kenaustin, Fat Cramer, dedman, Lone Wolf Legionnaire, Lance, and Quislet,
to speak your mind.
Then, when you're ready, cast your secret vote via PM to Exnihil to say who the first person will be to leave... Survivor.

I would like it if we could all stay. I always feel sorry for whoever gets voted off first in these reality competition shows.
I'll reserve my vote until my teammates have had their say.

This game is different from other reality competition shows,as we all share a common interest in The Legion,and whoever gets voted off will be missed.
I to will reserve my vote,and wait for my teammates.

I propose that our tribe work together more closely - maybe exchanging emails so we function better as a team. I will miss whoever has to go.
