What's a St'balla?

Dude! If you have to ask...

You've got Tree-mail:



*EST

Ya know, looking at that message again, I guess the asterisk is completely superfluous.

Just a little superfluous.

And I see my time trapper powers didn't help in putting things in chronological order.

I knew St'balla was going to be something from that story! Okay, cool.

So, this flight ring is cool.

I think it's funny when people say stuff like, "7:00am in the morning." Like they're helping us understand that am means not at night.

So, it seems like a French challenge coming up.

The lingerie is in the bureau! That's about it for me!

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.

Mon Dieu!!!

C'est la Blogosphere!!!

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.

<span style="font-size: 20px;">DO NOT POST IT ON THE BOARD!</span>

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!!!

... and this Immunity Challenge is...

CALLED!


I hope our Survivors enjoyed their trek through the Blogosphere... and perhaps saw some places that they'd like to visit again in the future.


As Mr. Foccart explained in the first clue, our contestants first needed to make their way to:

Living Between Wednesdays ,

a great all-around comics blog from our neighbor to the North.

From there, they would next find:

Paul and John Review

with it's tongue in cheek reviews of some of the odder aspects of Legion History.

Next it was on to:

Blockade Boy

an unfortunately retired blog that specialized in Legion fashion makeovers.

This directed them to:

The Legion Omnicom

the preeminent Legion blog in all of cyberspace.

Finally, it was on to:

Super Future Friends

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 <span style="font-size: 15px;">Super-Shout</span>," 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:

<span style="font-size: 30px;">St'balla Wins Immunity!</span>


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.

Yay, Team!

Oh, whoa! I totally slept through it. I didn't realize that early mornings were going to factor. Did I miss that in the fine print?

Well, thanks St'balla tribe. Um, I'll try really hard to get to the next one.

Yeah! Go Team Unpronounceable!

Darn I checked the board before I went to work this morning and the challenge hadn't started yet,and when I got home it was already over.

I'm gonna have to quit my day job.

ugg...the horrors of night shift, i missed the challenge completely

Well N'hura mates, I missed it too. Work interferes with fun again!

All right, N'hura, bring it on in.



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,

<span style="font-size: 15px;">kenaustin, Fat Cramer, dedman, Lone Wolf Legionnaire, Lance, and Quislet,</span>

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.

I can solve this unwelcome problem easily, dear tribe members, since I must be away from home and computer from Sunday through Thursday, and will not be able to participate at all. So I am the best choice to <strike>fly the bomb into the Suneater</strike> be removed from the island.

Whoa-ho-ho!

Fat Cramer throws an incredible twist into the Tribal Council proceedings with the old "Andrew Nolan" routine!

A noble sacrifice, but the final vote is still on her tribemates. Will they accept her sacrifice for the good of the team?

kenaustin, Lone Wolf Legionnaire, Quislet, Lance, Cramer, and dedman: over the course of today, please go ahead and cast your votes via PM to Exnihil, after which the final tally will occur.

I was going to go the old random vote path but now due to FC's statement....

I don't think Novelty actually has to vote...

Yup, Exnihil meant Dedman instead of Novelty
