Tonight, our final three faced the jury at the Final Tribal Council. You can view the FTC here:

Jurors, you have until 9 PM EST on Monday, July 16 to turn in your votes! Winner reveal will be shortly after!

[ios-newzealand]

After a three-part final immunity challenge, it’s time to ind out who has secured a spot in the final three!

In the OUTPLAY portion, they competed a flash game. Here were the scores!

Colin: 3116

Drew: 2115

BC: 1406

Medha: 582

Colin has 4 points, Drew has 2, BC has 1, Medha has 0.

In the OUTWIT portion, they completed a logic puzzle. Here were the times!

Drew: 27 minutes and 26 seconds

Colin: 58 minutes and 4 seconds.

Medha: Did not finish

BC Did not finish

This means Colin has 6 points, Drew has 6 points, BC has 2 points and Medha has 1 point. It comes down to the OUTLAST portion...

In the OUTLAST portion, they had to count up as high as possible and then count back down to one. Here were the scores!

BC: 2500, DID NOT FINISH

Medha: 1000

Colin: 2500

Drew: 2018

This means Colin has scored 10, Drew has scored 8, and BC and Medha both scored 2 overall.

With that, congratulations Colin, you have won the final immunity challenge and secured a spot in the final three! Two others will join you there - and one more will join the jury!

Your votes are due Friday, July 13 at 10 PM EST. In the event of a tie, there WILL be a firemaking challenge. Good luck!

[ios-newzealand]

Drew, I’ll take back that necklace one last time. Your final immunity challenge is about to begin.

Your final immunity challenge will be conducted in three parts:

1. OUTWIT: You will complete a logic puzzle semi-live. You will receive more specific instructions about the puzzle when you’re ready to do it. Please budget up to 60 minutes for completing it and let us know when you’re ready.

2. OUTPLAY: You will play one of our favorite flash games, Chrome Dino! Submit your highest score to your host chat via screenshot. Make sure your name is in the URL and the date/time are visible.

3. OUTLAST: There’s one challenge that’s appeared in every IOS season, and this season is no different. For this part, you will have to create a separate challenge chat. Your goal in this chat is to count UP, one number per message at a time. Once you feel comfortable with this, you must count back DOWN to one. If you make a mistake, you can edit/delete messages as you like. The person who counts the highest and gets back down will win. If NOBODY gets back down to 1, then the highest counter will win.

In terms of scoring, you will receive points depending on how you place in each of the three sections. First place earns 4 points, second place 2 points, third place 1 point and last place nets no points. Whoever ends up with the most points will earn the right to make their case at Final Tribal Council! If there is a tie, a special live tiebreaker challenge will take place.

You have until Thursday, July 12 at 10 PM EST to complete your challenge. Good luck and have fun!

Rites of Passage (Add Pic Later FRICK Tumblr)

Our final four went through each of the sixteen fallen castaways in a special Rites of Passage! Let’s see what everyone had to say!

You can view BC’s Rites of Passage here!

Amanda, UGH ROBBED GODDESS <3 QUEEN OF FIRST BOOTS! SO THREATENING THE FAVES VOTED HER OUT FIRST... HER MIND, SO POWERFUL!!! For real tho, I was deeply saddened when you left early. You're one of the nicest people I've met in the ORG community! You definitely have a lot of game to you and I hope the next game, Shade franchise or not, we can work together! Til then, queen...!

Billy, I don't really know you that well so idrk what to say djdkdjf but what I will say is that you seem really cool and I admire how you battled your way back on your OG season!

Lauren, like Billy, idrk you but you seemed chill and likable. Hopefully we can work together in another game!

Bridgette, ANOTHER ROBBED QUEEN <3 You were so nice to me and we clicked instantly. I'm sorry that you had to leave so suddenly (screw Six for idoling you out btw :p) for real tho, you're an awesome person and you shouldn't let your placement dictate how you are as a person/player. You're a good player as well and I definitely think the Tumblr community as a whole underrates you a lot.

Six, while we were never truly aligned, I was right when I said I did like you a lot. I loved your spunk and outlook on life! You playing that rap song as the votes were read at our first tc was iconic <3 Unfortunately, you were too much of a wildcard after your whole "blowup" and I think that you were never able to recuperate. Also, had you made the swap, you would've 100% flipped on the fans at any given moment and that was risky. I'm sorry you had to go though!!! I'm definitely looking forward to talk to you after all of this :)

Grace, you were quite the delight honestly! From the moment we first spoke, I knew that I would like you a lot. I didn't even know about your dominance in ORGs which is quite impressive if I must say so myself. Unfortunately, once I heard you were targeting me, I had to vote you out but regardless, I think you played a great social game and could've taken it all had you made it farther!

Joseph, you are a SNAKE bro. I <3 you but you're such a snake lmao. I trusted you a lot and I really wanted to work with you, but for whatever reason, you obvi liked Liam more than me and wanted me gone (which ok I understand; it's a game). However, when you were making up lies to my face and trying to snake me out, I knew you couldn't be trusted and had to take the shot I could when it was between you and Dana. No hard feelings, I'm sure you're a nice guy! I hope to talk to you after this is all over so we can clear some things up! <3

Victor, ROBBED KING!!! The nuKaumatua tribe did you DIRTY! I really wanted to work with you. I would have considered you my #1 and Kevin my #2 so it just sucked when I got on a swap tribe with none of my super close allies. I think you had a lot of potential, and if it wasn't a double tribal, I think you could've won the next few challenges til the merge and made a run for the end. Better luck next time and I hope we stay in touch!

Zakriah, I felt so bad blindsiding you because you definitely were a cool dude. Unfortunately, you never really talked to me and I knew you were closer w/Dana than me so when your name came up for the vote, I was fine voting for you over Ally/Dana. Despite that, it was nice meeting you and hopefully we can work together in another game!

Liam, I unfortunately don't have much to say about you. This is not to be rude, but we have had NO connection, game or personal or indifferent. Every time I tried to reach out to you, you basically ignored me and when you tried to talk to me, it was just for a vote. I knew you were using me for my vote and that you/Joseph both were targeting me; I even confronted you about this and you straight up lied to my face when I know that wasn't the truth. So, for my game, between you and Michael, it made more sense for you to go over Michael because Michael actually spoke to me whereas you did not unfortunately. Regardless, you seemed really chill and if we talked more, I'm sure we would've gotten along better.

Dana, I straight up LOVED talking to you this season. You were definitely one of my closest allies, so seeing you go was heart-breaking. I wanted to protect you and go to the end with you, but unfortunately you were taken out before I got the chance. Idk why you were targeted so much; it seemed like pettiness to me :P. Hope you had fun and we can play again soon! <3

Tate, you were a really chill dude tbh. I liked our convos, although most were short. I established a connection with you early on in the game at Waitomo Caves, but you did not seem receptive at first. Eventually, I believe you came around to me, which allowed us to have a good working relationship which was nice. I appreciated a lot of what you told me, including the whole dynamics of everyone on our swap tribe knowing each other beforehand lol. I'm glad we met and I'm sorry you had to go, but your inactivity made you an easy target. :( Nevertheless, it was nice meeting you!

Kevin, MY MAN!!! After Victor left, you were 100% my ride or die. Even before, I shared everything with either you or him. I thoroughly enjoyed playing with you. Despite our rocky relationship in the game that shall not be named (Kevin knows which one that is ;) ) I'm glad we connected in this one. The thing that caused me to start distrusting you was when you brought up my name as a potential target going into F10 tc which was odd since we had been allies all game. I very much wanted to work with you and wanted to save you at F8, however, the numbers weren't there and unfortunately you were taken out as a social threat. Hopefully the next game we don't turn on each other AND we can make it to the end togeher! <3 So long!!!

Ally, one of my OG Epicmafia friends. I had never played an ORG with you b4, but now I know how you do so well in them. You were great socially, I loved getting to know you <3 You were sweet as can be but you also suffered a disease called "flipper-itis" and it affected our relationship a lot (at least on my end). I didn't know if I could trust you long term, so when the opportunity arose to take you out I had to take it. Despite that, you're an awesome girl, an awesome player, and I can't wait til our next game together!

Heather, you were definitely one of the people coming in I said I wanted to work with. We connected well in Big Brother Pokemon: Alola so I was hoping that we could do the same here. Except... neither of us really talked to each other that much lol. We were on the same "side" per say, but we were never allies I guess. I wanted to trust you and work with you, but I KNOW you would've chosen Colin/Michael over me. Additionally, you straight up told me that I was gone if Drew won live night immunity so that was the red flag in my book that made me stop and think about moving forward with you. Despite that, I know you're a sweet girl <3 and I hope the next survivor game we play, we can actually work together!

Michael, last but not least, the man, the myth, the legend LMAO. Idk what it was about you but something just pulled me into you so quickly (no homo bro lol) seriously tho, you had a calming presence that I think goes understated. You were a HUGE underdog in the sense that you had a lot of connections yet still found yourself targeted many rounds. You should be proud of the immensely great social game you played, as well as your strategic game as well. I definitely think had Colin not idoled you out you would've been the winner of the game over any of us 4 remaining, so I think it was best for all of us in a way to have you go home. You are such a sweet angel and I can't wait to talk to you and the rest after this is all over! <3

You can view Colin’s Rites of Passage here!

Amanda - Unfortunately we didn’t get to play together for very long. I’ve heard only good things about you so I’m kinda disappointed we couldn’t play together more. I hope ur doing well!!

Billy - Ugh we stan scorpios. I’m so BITTER we didn’t get to play longer. If we ever find each other in a game again can we, like, make a scorpio f2 pls and ty.

Lauren - Girl you REALLY tried it this game. I was shook. but to be fair I tried it as well so! You know I adore you and have always been ur ultimate stan. Stay in touch pls, ily!!

Bridgette - ahhhHHH I was so shook when I saw you were in this game. And then I was so sad when you were idoled out. It’s been so long since we’ve spoken and I really wanted to catch up with you!! You’re a living legend and I hope ur doing okay!!

Six - idk you but uhhh iconic idol play

Grace - WHEW. Meeting you and working with you was absolutely one of my favorite things about this game. You’re so gorgeous and fun to talk to and uhmmmm ily?? I hope all is well with u!!

Joseph - Idk you but i hope ur doing okay too!!

Victor -  Tbh I thought I was gonna try to work with you and we were gonna be some fun underdog opposite sides duo butttttt that obviously never happened. I’m sorry laskdjglks. I still think you’re really fun and yeah hope ur doing well!!

Zakriah - I love how we worked together more in this game than we did when we were a blood vs water pair in New Orleans. I’m really really happy we got to play together tbh?? I loved getting to know you more and I genuinely loved talking to you, even putting game completely aside. Hope ur okay!!

Liam - King, icon, legend. We literally aren’t close at all but I still feel like I know you and I think you’re great. I think you seem to have that effect on a lot of people and that says a lot about you!! You’re a genuinely good person and I hope we can talk to each other more in the future

Dana - Ugh I just wanna be your friend tbh. You’re so fun and an interesting personality tbh. I’m sorry I didn’t really put forth too much effort to talk with you, one of my main regrets on a personal level is not trying to get closer to you. I hope you’re doing well!!

Tate - King of negating two votes. Honestly,,,, you were kinda victim to my first personal backstab and I’m SORRY for that skjgdkgj. You were fun to talk to, and I don’t know why but I just found it hard to trust you, even though looking back I felt like you were actually genuinely loyal. I’m just a mess. I really hope you’re doing alright and I hope we can talk again more, I think you’re great!!

Kevin - Another fave moment of mine in this game was meeting you!! You’re such a genuine person and a fun personality and the circumstances around your vote off is honestly kinda tragic. Nonetheless, you were absolutely a power player in this game and you were frankly robbed. Pls keep in touch after the game, I adore you!! Hehe hope ur doing okay

Ally - So, like, I’m really sorry because I know this is definitely just as much my fault as yours but we didn’t really have any connection in this game at all?? And that’s kinda disappointing to me considering how long we played together. It’s another one of my regrets because I’ve heard so much about what a fun person and player u are, and I didn’t get to see that. I really hope ur doing well and I’m sorry again!!

Heather - Ugh okay so I wanna keep this relatively lighthearted so I don’t cry (thats ur job, ur the cancer) dskjsdgkj. You are one of the nicest and most easy to talk to people I’ve ever met in this community. I think you’re AMAZING and I’m so glad we can call each other friends. Murdering you in the live night was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do in an org, it was last minute and very very heart wrenching, especially after what happened in Alaska. I really hope u don’t hold any resentment because I think so highly of you. I can’t wait to talk to you after this game and I hope all is well with you!!

Michael - This is another one that’s very hard to write for me. I loved our arc in this game, from when you voted to me round 3 to you becoming one of my closest allies. You’re so funny and I literally adore you SO much. King of being relatable and literally just never fucking sleeping. Pls pls stay in touch after this game because I really genuinely enjoyed talking with you. Hope you’re okay, I know it sucks going out at f5 :(

You can view Drew’s Rites of Passage here!

Amanda - Amanda my fallen queen and Hokkaido sister, I didn’t know how this was gonna play out after HOS20, but I was down to explore that with you. But then over half the tribe said they’d barely heard from you, and that’s just nnnn death

Billy - LOVE OF MY LIFE AND FUTURE FATHER OF MY CHILDREN!!!!!

Lauren - Hey luv! Your rehearsal and performance schedule kept us from making the best connection, but at least you were right about Colin making it deep!

Bridgette - Rip my cave buddy <3

Six - I don’t know you but you’re an icon, are you still afraid of Seven?

Grace - The actual best person I have ever met. I was so ready to throw my entire game away for you...

Joseph - We never met in-game but now I’m hosting you so KING OF CAYMAN ISLANDS!!!

Victor - When the Favorites lost their second immunity challenge and I was in my feelings about losing Billy, I made maybe my only confessional of the game to say “I just want to get to merge to get to individual challenges, but Victor can’t be there or he’ll stop me.” And based on your exit message, it’s maybe the best call I made all game.

Zakriah - I love you so much, I was really excited to play this with you, we got really close to making it back...

Liam - Ugh my Canadienne dad, lowkey wish I’d gone home instead of Keaton so we could share a placement in each other’s worlds. I still lowkey have no idea what happened on swap whatever your tribe was, but it did you in

Dana - Queen of barely being around and still slaying my faves, it honestly wasn’t even supposed to be you that night, but at least we can say we play orgs together in the same way that we host them: in borderline silence for days then throwing everything together in the last second like it was the plan all along!!!

Tate - I’d say you leaving wouldn’t have happened if I’d been voting but um...ily? I was psyched to play with the final third of the holy trinity, but our agendas didn’t line back up once merge hit

Kevin - Kevin why did you come for me, we were doing so well!!!!!!!! I love you, you’re one of my longest friendships in this community, and just so we’re both on the same page, I am NOT taking the blame for this one <3

Ally - Ugh Chilltowns, our one plot together this season went off without a hitch the week before!! I do wish you’d been more present with the game, this isn’t what I’d hoped for when we eventually found out way into a game together, but it was fun while it lasted. Also hmu for 703 Amazing Race if you haven’t played yet, we would slay

Heather - I still wanna know who played that fuckin disadvantage on me in the word search tbh...anyway working with you was a dream and everything I DESERVED after the last FvF we played together that shall not be named despite its incredible winner. I think you’re the only boot I made all season that was specifically because you would win if you were still here.

Michael - Tbh I knew we weren’t making the end together during the Kevin vote, with how hard I had to push to get you to not vote for me then. But if there’s one thing I admire about you, it’s your ability to put game aside and just have chill light conversations. Playing a game with you has been everything I’d hoped it would be.

[ios-newzealand]

Tonight six became five in our very special live night! With two challenges and one tribal, it was an eventful time! Click here for a recap!

You can view the whole thing here:

In the first immunity challenge, the six players were put on a grid where they had to cut one another off! After an hour of Owen being messy, Colin ultimately won immunity. 

At tribal council, BC played an extra vote, and Heather was voted out in a 4-2-1 vote, where Drew received two votes and BC received one.

In the final immunity challenge, the castaways had to collect letters over fifteen rounds, then use them to spell a word. Drew won immunity, securing himself a spot in the final four.

Your votes are due on Monday, July 9 at 10 PM EST. Good night!

[ios-newzealand]

Once again, Drew has won himself immunity. Let’s see who won’t be joining him in the final six!

[ios-newzealand]

Heather, Medha, and Drew competed in a word search for immunity! Let’s see who won!

Medha was unable to finish due to medical reasons. It came down to Drew and Heather...

However, someone used a disadvantage on Drew, adding 20% to his time!

Nonetheless, it did not matter - Heather had the quicker time anyways, and won immunity, guaranteeing herself a spot in the final seven! 

[ios-newzealand]

Drew, I’ll take back the Immunity Necklace. Because only three of you chose to leave the tribal, only three of you will be competing today!

Medha, Heather, and Drew, your next challenge is a semi-live word search! Before you begin, make sure you have an image editing website or program (MS Paint, Photoshop, Google Drawings, Pixlr, etc) ready to go. Then, proceed to your host chat where you will need to find the names of all 20 contestants (and your 4 hosts) in a standard word search. Whoever completes their word search in the fastest time will earn immunity and a 1 in 7 shot at winning this game!

You have until tomorrow, July 3 at 10 PM to complete your word search. Good luck and have fun!

[ios-newzealand]

It is time for another tribal council! This time, you were given the choice to stay and vote, or give up your vote in exchange for a chance at winning the next immunity challenge. Let’s see what everyone decided to do!

Drew, Heather, and Medha have all decided to give up their votes. They will be eligible for the next immunity. That means only Colin, Kevin, Tate, Ally, BC, and Michael have voted tonight. I’ll tally the votes!

If anybody has a hidden immunity idol and they’d like to play it, now would be the time to do so...

.

Nobody stands. 

I’ll read the votes! First vote...

Tate.

Second vote...

Kevin.

Third vote...

Tate. do I know whats going on? fuck no but this is what I know is the maybe vote..... god help me

Tate, the tribe has spoken. Please bring me your torch.

Even among the chaos, you’ve reached a unanimous vote. How long will this last? Who knows! Head back to camp, and for three of you, a challenge is on its way.

[ios-newzealand]

After 22 hours, a clear winner has emerged! Let’s see who ate an unstoppable amount of kiwifruit!

With a score of 73, congratulations Drew you are once again immune! Here were the scores!

Ally: Abstained

Tate: Abstained

Heather: Abstained

Medha: 21

Kevin: 16

Michael: 56

Colin: 38

BC: 55

Drew: 73

Great job! However, this round is accompanied by a small twist... Something deep within the Waitomo Caves has been awakened, and is haunting this Tribal Council! This tribal will be riskier than ever, as the monster waits for those who cast their votes. You have two options: you can stay and cast a vote, but will be cursed by the monster and incapable of playing in the next immunity challenge. OR you can choose to leave tribal, giving up your vote, but earning yourself a chance to play in the next immunity challenge. Those who leave WILL be eligible to receive votes still. If none of you stay and vote, then you will all draw rocks (except for Drew). 

Your decision and your votes are due Monday, July 2 at 10 PM EST. Make your decision wisely!

[ios-newzealand]

Come on in, guys! Immunity is back up for grabs!

The challenge today is simple - who wants immunity the most! In order to start this challenge, you must make a separate challenge chat with the four hosts in it. Then, when you are ready to begin, you will post “I EAT 1 KIWIFRUIT” as a single message. After at least ten minutes have passed, you can post “I EAT 2 KIWIFRUITS” and so on, for as long as you would like. The person who sends the most messages in the 24-hour period will win immunity and secure themselves a spot in final eight! Here are some additional rules...

Messages cannot be sent unless ten minutes have passed. You ARE allowed to have more than ten minutes between them - for example, if I posted at 11:01 I could post again at 11:15 and it would still count. However, 11:09 would NOT count, as that is not ten minutes.

If you make a mistake, delete the post and continue. DO NOT EDIT ANY MESSAGES - edited messages will not count towards your total. There is no penalty for messing up.

The time that has passed does NOT have to be specific to the second, ONLY to the minute. This means you could post at 11:00:45 and again at 11:10:32. Only the MINUTE counts. 

All times will be graded based on the hosts’ computers. 

Your messages do not have to be bolded/capitalized/punctuated, but spelling does count.

If you have any questions, please let us know! You have until Sunday, July 1 at 11 PM EST to complete this challenge. Remember, to begin all you have to do is make a chat with us! Good luck!

[ios-newzealand]

The ten of you have had an eventful round, with both an auction and Touchy Subjects. Now, it’s time for one more to leave the game and join Liam in jury.

Because BC used his power of the caves, he will be safe with Drew, and will not vote. There are only nine votes tonight. I’ll go tally the votes!

If anybody has a hidden immunity idol and they’d like to play it, now would be the time to do so...

Dana, I’m sorry but the tribe has spoken. Please bring me your torch.

For the rest of you - the auction has already had an impact on the way this game works - what else is in store? You will found out soon enough. Head back to camp and get ready for the next challenge.

[ios-newzealand]

BC has decided to utilize his POWER OF THE WAITOMO CAVES that he earned from the auction! This will let BC travel to the caves this round, removing him from tribal - he will NOT get a vote, but he will NOT be eligible to receive votes.

Because of this, I am extending tribal council by thirty minutes, so you still have four hours to get your votes in. They’ll be due at 10:30 EST! Good luck!
