Day 0 - Introduction

🎵 Dear Mom and Dad, I’m doin’ fine. You guys are on my mind… 🎵

Welcome to the premiere of THE 2ND SEASON of Total Drama Sims: the hottest, freshest reality TV show on simblr. I'm your host jonquilyst, though if you tuned in to the show last season, you'll already know who I am!

14 more teenagers have gathered to put their wits, guts, and strength to the test to seek out the ✨ grand prize. ✨ Like last season, they will compete in crazy challenges, deal with less-than-perfect living arrangements, and face the judgement of each other!

🎵 You asked me what I wanted to be, and I think the answer is plain to see… 🎵

🎵 I wanna live close to the sun. Pack your bags 'cause I’ve already won… 🎵

Allow me to give you the grand tour of the no-longer-abandoned film lot we claimed for this season! Instead of cabins, contestants will be staying in these cramped trailers, just like actors on set! There's one for each team with 7 beds each and complimentary bathrooms.

Our mess hall is a bit less rustic than the one we had at the summer camp, but it's got that same ol' charm with 2 dining tables and a small living area for everyone's convenience!

Now, on to the fun part: replacing the shoddy outhouse, our contestants' destination for providing their juicy confessionals will be a makeup trailer right behind the trailers! Get used to it: it'll appear every single day with a different contestant providing their thoughts.

And finally, the auditorium! This will be the site of our ever-so-exciting elimination ceremonies. In front of it is the walk-of-shame, where losers will say goodbye to Total Drama Sims to catch the lame-o-sine at the very end!

🎵 Everything to prove nothing’s in my way. I’ll get there one day! 🎵

Now, allow me to formally introduce you to our 14 new contestants!

(from left to right; top to bottom)

(also fun fact: the poses are all different this time, so everyone's portrait is truly unique to them!)

Wait... What About Teams?

Yea... about that: teams will be sorted a little differently this season! Instead of randomized teams right away, they are being formed after the first socialization day, when everyone has time to form relationships! Shortly before the first challenge, two people will be selected at random to be the "captains" of the teams. From there, they will select their teammates schoolyard-style (alternating between boys and girls) based on their relationships with the other contestants!

Day 6 - Challenge Day

"Wait... Isn't there supposed to be a challenge?"

Our contestants got up at their usual time, eating breakfast normally while waiting for the challenge announcement, but 30 minutes went by... then an hour... Neal (RB), Toni (RB), and everyone else were left confused as the hours slowly started going by and... nothing.

In the end, the contestants were left to their devices for the entire day, until night fell and everyone began hearing strange noises...

Mwahahaha... Just to keep everyone on their toes, I confused everyone and didn't tell them that our challenge is actually taking place at night! To everyone's horror, the film lot has been infested with accursed objects! That's right, the film lot has become haunted and it's time for our contestants to act as ghostbusters. If there's something strange in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? The scared-to-death teenagers at TOTAL DRAMA SIMS of course!

You guessed it! This challenge's movie genre is horror, and to make it extra scary, I think it's time that I introduce one of our brand-new game mechanics... This challenge is going to be a purge challenge! There will be no vote and the worst-performing contestant of the losing team will be automatically eliminated!

In this challenge, the teams must destroy all the accursed objects on the lot. The team that destroys the most objects will be granted invincibility, guaranteeing them safety from the purge.

Everyone gathered at the mess hall, where Ashlee (IS) and Neal were greeted by a creepy doll that just appeared out of nowhere! But Flo (IS) was brave and began destroying the accursed objects!

Coffee (IS) and Hans (IS) were also brave enough to venture out into the night and destroy the objects, but sadly, Enzo (RB) was so overcome with fear that he was unable to leave the mess hall for quite awhile!

Our teams were ghostbusting all night. Just as the sun came up, Liana (RB) destroyed the last of the accursed objects, right before collapsing from exhaustion thereafter!

THE RESULTS:

Here's how many accursed objects were destroyed by each contestant:

Drew: 5

Hans: 5

Willabelle: 6

Ashlee: 2

Neal: 2

Takashi: 2

Paulina: 5

Enzo: 3

Coffee: 2

Flo: 3

Liana: 3

Toni: 4

With a grand total of the Big-Names' 25 objects destroyed to the Star-Shines' 19, the Big-Names secure their second victory!

THE RENOWNED BIG-NAMES WIN!

Congratulations Big-Names! You are all safe once again! That means that someone from the Illustrious Star-Shines will be sent home, and as you can see, there is a 3-way tie between Ashlee, Coffee, and Takashi.

My wheel of names will be randomly selecting which of these contestants gets the purge of this challenge. I'll see you all at the auditorium!

Today's Confessional: Willabelle Lowes

"There's a reason why I destroyed the most accursed objects out of everyone. 'The lot is haunted!' Puh-lease! They were just dolls, twigs, and rocks. There was literally nothing to be afraid of! What are they gonna do? Steal my soul or something? Yeah, I don't think so. While Enzo was over there cowering like a baby, I took the chance to actually be a team player. I'm so proud that it paid off."

Day 4 - Elimination Ceremony

Welcome to the auditorium, Star-Shines! You lost the challenge and now, one of you will be leaving Total Drama Sims.

We've got a mix of emotions here. Flo is in positive spirits, knowing that she's going to try her best to protect her friend Drew from elimination. However, Takashi is feeling anxious despite being exempt from the challenge!

The votes have been cast, and they were all over the board. Only 2 people didn't receive any votes! Those two people are Coffee and Flo!

The following contestants are also safe, despite receiving at least 1 vote:

Ashlee, Hans, and Takashi

Drew and Tristan received the most votes out of everyone, and guess what? Their votes are tied! It's time to get my handy random number generator for the first time this season to determine Drew and Tristan's fates...

The final result is under the cut:

The contestant that the RNG chose, and therefore eliminated from Total Drama Sims, is...

TRISTAN BACHMAN

Today's Confessional: Hans Somme

"Drew should have been the one leaving! Sure Tristan is a little scrawny and isn't as... robust as I am, but he was smart and was a valuable asset to my team! Drew over here is in track, but she still was still the one to lag behind me and cost us the win."

"Drew, for your own sake, you better prove to me you're actually in track in the next challenge, or you have no place within my team."

Day 2 - Team Sorting

Rise and shine, everyone! Today's the day you will all be sorted into teams. And after that, it will be time for the very first challenge!

But before we get into all that, you all need a shower. You stink.

It was a rather peaceful morning here at the film lot. That is until Hans caught himself on fire... Hey! TDS isn't TDS without someone catching themselves on fire!

Now that everyone's all clean, it's time to gather everybody outside to commence the team sorting! I know you're hungry, Enzo, but you also needed a shower and life here isn't always gonna be sunshine and daisies, pretty boy!

My random wheel of names has spoken! The captains of our teams (aka the ones that will be picking the members, no special treatment here!) are Hans for Team 1 and Toni for Team 2! They will now select their teammates schoolyard-style (alternating between boys and girls) based on their relationships with the rest of the cast!

The first 3 members selected by Hans for Team 1 are Coffee, Tristan, and Ashlee! Each of them have a relatively positive relationship with Hans (despite Coffee not particularly liking him back)

The first 3 members that Toni picks out for Team 2 are Enzo, Liana, and Neal.

The last 3 members that Hans selects for Team 1 are Takashi, Drew, and Flo!

And finally, rounding out Team 2 are Willabelle, Brody, and Paulina!

Team 1 shall be christened as... THE ILLUSTRIOUS STAR-SHINES!

And Team 2 shall be known as... THE RENOWNED BIG-NAMES!

Now, we're truly ready to kick off this season!

Day 1 - Socialization Day (part 1)

Our 14 contestants have arrived at the film lot, so you know what that means! It's time for everybody to meet everybody! Since the teams haven't formed yet, no one knows who they're going to be competing with or against, so the best strategy here? Try to get on everyone's good side.

Ashlee was the first to strike up a conversation with the other contestants. Brody seemed rather intrigued by her exuberant personality, but Paulina? She was a little too taken aback by her mannerisms.

Our dear Hans' first victim person he chatted with was Coffee, commenting on how it was so brave for such a reserved person to come onto the show. Coffee... did not appreciate it. Thankfully, Takashi saw what happened and decided to try and make her feel better. It was successful and the two get along quite nicely! Better luck next time, Hans...

Enzo is quickly becoming this season's rizzler 😏 The first person he talked to, and flattered, was Flo.

Neal wasn't originally interested in interacting with others, still sour to be separated from his brother, but later on he found himself making friendly conversations with Paulina and Liana! Nice!

More in part 2!

Day 2 - Challenge Day

It's the moment we've all been waiting for! Challenge time!! If you remember from our casting call, I said that the challenges this season would be based off of movie genres! So what's this challenge's genre? Culinary, of course!

The two teams must prepare a grilled cheese sandwich, and they must try to make the better grilled cheese sandwiches than the other team. The team with the highest number of high-quality sandwiches wins invincibility!

The Illustrious Star-Shines start out strong, with Hans unfazed from catching himself on fire earlier. However, it seems that the fire curse passed on to Coffee, because she put too much oil in the pan which resulted in an explosion!

The Renowned Big-Names fumble a bit more than the Star-Shines, as you can see with Enzo accidentally dropping the pepper shaker, but you can just see the determination in Toni's eyes as she tries to get her sandwich back in her pan!

THE RESULTS:

Illustrious Star-Shines

Ashlee: Normal

Coffee: Excellent!

Drew: Normal

Flo: Excellent!

Hans: Excellent!

Takashi: Excellent!

Tristan: Normal

Renowned Big-Names

Brody: Normal

Enzo: Normal

Liana: Excellent!

Neal: Normal

Paulina: Normal

Toni: Normal

Willabelle: Excellent!

It was close, but the Star-Shines take the cake with 4 excellent-quality sandwiches to 2!

THE ILLUSTRIOUS STAR-SHINES WIN!

Congratulations Star-Shines! Although nobody in particular did terribly (besides Coffee exploding herself, but good thing she's on your team!), you still made better sandwiches than the Big-Names!

The Illustrious Star-Shines have won invincibility and are safe tonight. I'll be seeing the Renowned Big-Names at the auditorium for the first elimination of Total Drama Sims: Season 2...

Day 26 - Flo Harper

Our nosy nellie's time on TDS has come to an end, but she enjoyed a fruitful run and made many friends along the way, including her closest friend Drew, who Flo will be rooting for as Drew enters the final 3!

Flo proved valuable to many of her friends for her... nosy tendencies, spreading that juicy gossip to the advantage of herself and her friends, but she was not good at being secretive about it and eventually others started to take notice. This, along with the fact that Paulina and Liana have been buddying-up recently, is what prompted the votes.

Still, like her first cousin something times removed in Season 1, she played exceptionally well and will have a LOT to tell her folks when she gets home!

@akitasimblr It was an honor to play with another of your awesome Harpers! Flo was absolutely hilarious and I laughed out loud every time she'd get dirty in a challenge or spy on others. I'm so glad this lovely pixel lasted as long as she did 💖

3 contestants remain...

Day 17 - Elimination Ceremony

Welcome to the first elimination ceremony of the merge! It's gonna be a fun one, and not just because everyone is involved in the voting process now.

Do you recall me saying that I had a special surprise coming up for this elimination ceremony? Well... Here it is: this is gonna be a double elimination! So instead of one person, two people will be leaving the game! Yippeee!

I didn't have enough seats for everybody, so Takashi is enjoying a chair from the mess hall. Thankfully he's ok with it! Drew feels pretty proud of herself to be safe from this two-at-once elimination, while Toni is feeling pretty paranoid...

Well, let's see which two people will be getting the misfortune of leaving the game tonight!

The following contestants are safe:

Coffee, Drew (immune), Flo, Liana, Paulina, and Takashi

Enzo, Hans, and Toni received the most votes out of everyone. The final result is below the cut:

The contestants eliminated from Total Drama Sims are...

HANS SOMME and TONI STROUD

Today's Confessional: Liana Morris

"I'm the only one of my friends left in the game now... I'm pretty sad about it, but oddly enough it makes me feel more motivated to win... I want to win for my new friends. They have all been so kind to me and they've definitely made coming to Total Drama Sims worth it. So much better than my grandparents' house."

Day 12 - Challenge Day

Fitness junkies, you're in luck! Today's challenge movie genre is sports, and as you can see, we're playing basketball today!

In today's challenge, two people from each team will spend 1 sim hour trying to get the most baskets. After everyone has had a turn, all the baskets everyone got will be added up for a team total. The team who scores the most baskets overall will win invincibility!

Thanks to the team swap last elimination, the Illustrious Star-Shines now outnumber the Renowned Big-Names by 2, so we will be sitting out two people from the Star-Shines today. My wheel of names has decided to pick Coffee and Drew! These two are exempt from the challenge and will spectate instead.

Our first match-up is Paulina (IS) vs. Toni (RB)! A shame these two have to compete against each other now, but Paulina shows Toni who's boss (and that eliminating her was a mistake) by scoring 6 baskets to Toni's 4!

Takashi (IS) and Willabelle (RB) are up next! Despite Willabelle's love for fitness, she struggles to score baskets and keep up with Takashi. The score is once again 6 to 4, with Takashi scoring the higher number.

Liana (RB) feels pretty intimidated to go up against the athletic Hans (IS), but Hans actually does worse than Paulina and Takashi and only scores 4 baskets! Liana also manages to score 4 baskets, making this match-up a tie!

Last but not least, we have Flo (IS), who obviously didn't take a shower this morning, against Neal (RB)! Flo did very well and scored 6 baskets, while Neal performed the best out of his team with 5 baskets!

With an overall score of 22 baskets to 17, the Illustrious Star-Shines secure their third victory in a row! Well done!!

THE ILLUSTRIOUS STAR-SHINES WIN!

Big-Names... What can I say? Don't know if we should keep calling you "Big" anymore. It's another trip to the auditorium for you!

Today's Confessional: Liana Morris

"Oh no... What are we gonna do? We have to eliminate someone! This is so unfair... Everyone on the team is my friend and I don't want anybody to feel bad or left out. Oh... I really hate this!"

Day 10 - Challenge Day

Do you remember our horse challenge from last season? Well, not one, but two horses are returning to the show to represent our western movie genre-themed challenge! This time, we've brought in Rocky on the left and Lady on the right. And, you guessed it! They're both untrained and as aggressive as Justice was last season!

In today's challenge, contestants from each team will be randomly paired up to ride the horses around the barrels until a barrel is knocked down. Their task is to not be the one who knocks down a barrel. Those who succeed will win the match-up and score a point for the team! The team who scores the most points (aka knocks down the least amount of barrels) will win invincibility!

Each team will be riding the same horse, (Rocky will be representing the Renowned Big-Names, while Lady will be the horse of the Illustrious Star-Shines!) and since the teams are even, everyone is participating today!

Our first match is Hans (IS) vs Liana! (RB) Liana had some trouble riding the horse at first, but it's hard to ride a horse in a dress so I don't blame her! Hans on the other hand is determined to win.

These two rode for a long time without knocking over any barrels, but in the end it was Hans whose horse made a misstep and knocked over the barrel! Liana looks pretty proud to be the winner, since Hans went into the match-up pretty confident. She scores a point for the Renowned Big-Names!

Next we have Flo (IS) vs. Toni (RB). Sadly, she fails in preventing the barrel from being knocked over, giving the win to Flo.

Our third match-up is Willabelle (RB) vs. Drew (IS)! The same fate occurred to Willabelle and her barrel is the one that gets knocked over, giving Drew the Star-Shine's second point.

But things take a turn when Paulina (RB) and Takashi (IS) take their turn. Takashi is the one to knock over the barrel, giving Paulina the point and resulting in the teams being tied for points!

It's down to just Coffee (IS) and Neal (RB) now. Their teams depend on them! Both of them gave it their all, but in the end Neal was the one to knock down the barrel, meaning that Coffee has broken the tie and secured victory for her team!

THE ILLUSTRIOUS STAR-SHINES WIN!

It's now the Star-Shine's turn to enjoy a winning streak! Everyone on the team is safe. I'll be seeing the Big-Names again at the auditorium, and let me tell you this: it will not be a normal elimination... Stay tuned!

Today's Confessional: Coffee Bean

"Wow... I can't believe I actually won for my entire team. I was... under a lot of pressure. I didn't like being the last out of everyone! It was so nerve-wracking... It felt like forever... I'm just glad it's finally over now."

Day 8 - Challenge Day

It's time to take a field trip! Today our challenge is taking place in Sulani. Everyone is thrilled to have a supposed beach day (don't mind Hans, he's constantly pouting) and Toni even started making a sand sculpture!

But I didn't take everyone here just for everyone to have fun on the beach. No beach episodes here! Instead... I have a much more entertaining activity in mind.

Hehehe... While everything seemed to be going well, the ground suddenly began to shake, and the active volcano on the neighboring island began to spew ash...

And before everyone knew it, the small island everyone was on was bombarded by volcanic rocks! Willabelle narrowly escaped being crushed by not one, but two giant rocks that hurdled straight toward her!

Did I just summon a volcanic eruption at will? Absolutely. Let's just say I can make anything happen... Anything.

Now, what's the challenge? Well, I summoned this eruption because this challenge's movie genre is action, and no action movie is complete without giant burning objects hurdling towards you! But what are we gonna do with these rocks exactly?

The teams will be harvesting the riches within these volcanic rocks, and the team whose stash of riches is the more valuable than the other will win invincibility! This challenge will also come with a standard elimination, to give ourselves a break from the new and scary last challenge!

Once again, due to uneven teams we will be sidelining one contestant, this time from the Big-Names as they are now the bigger team! Before I could spin my wheel, however, Neal decided to book it and he swam away to the other island, so... I guess I won't be needing my wheel today!

Our remaining contestants got cracking, breaking apart each piece of rock! Paulina strikes it rich and earns 136 simoleons from 3 different treasures while Willabelle only manages to retrieve a single broken fossil, which only earns her 10 simoleons... Coffee and Drew fill out the middle with their 54 and 78 simoleons respectively.

THE RESULTS:

Illustrious Star-Shines:

Coffee: 54 simoleons

Drew: 78 simoleons

Flo: 149 simoleons

Hans: 18 simoleons

Takashi: 267 simoleons

Renowned Big-Names:

Enzo: 49 simoleons

Liana: 138 simoleons

Paulina: 136 simoleons

Toni: 10 simoleons

Willabelle: 10 simoleons

With a combined total of 566 simoleons to 343, the Illustrious Star-Shines have crushed the Renowned Big-Names and have secured victory!

THE ILLUSTRIOUS STAR-SHINES WIN!

Ouch, Big-Names... It looks like your winning streak has ended. You know what that means! It's auditorium time 😈

Today's Confessional: Neal Ward

"It sucks that my team lost, but not participating in that challenge gave me an excuse to swim in the ocean and have the beach on the other island all to myself, so personally, I'm considering myself a winner anyway."

Day 28 - Liana Morris and Paulina Callaway

Total Drama Sims: Season 2 is officially coming to a close! Let's give a round of applause for both of our finalists!

THANK YOU @bloomingkyras and @cowplant-ate-my-sim for volunteering your lovely sims to Total Drama Sims! I loved them both so very much and I'm so happy they ended up being the finalists! Let's talk about their amazing performances for a bit:

Although Paulina didn't win, I think she has the most interesting TDS run out of all 28 contestants I've had, and that's all thanks to the team swap! If that elimination was just a standard elimination, she would have been in 10th place and an early-out, but the exact opposite happened! She stayed in the game, made it to the merge, and survived for its ENTIRETY! Want to know another cool Paulina fact? She is the highest-ranking member of the Illustrious Star-Shines, despite having originally been part of the Renowned Big-Names! Point being: Paulina's run was FANTASTIC and I hope you think so too!

Liana's biggest reason for making it so far in the game was pointed out by Hans: she took a "befriend-everybody" approach, similar to Lilium from last season, and because of that, nobody had a reason to vote her out; she was friends with everybody! She never even needed immunity in the merge to save herself (she never won a challenge in the merge). The only time she was almost eliminated was just before the merge, when the Renowned Big-Names were down to only 3 people, but aside from that one incident, she was never close to being voted out any other time! The fact that she was friends with almost everybody also allowed her to get additional votes in the finale and therefore win the entire competition in the end!

It's time to celebrate Liana for her well-deserved victory and the completion of another great season of TDS before everyone returns home!

Everyone partied until the stars came out! Liana takes one last glance at the Del Sol Valley night sky before she and everyone else departs for home.

THANK YOU to everyone who submitted their sims for Total Drama Sims: Season 2 💖 I'm so happy I did this for a second time and I really hope you enjoyed season 2 just as much as season 1!

If any of you are interested in sharing what your sim does after TDS2, feel free to share it with me! I would love to know what your sims’ afterthoughts are and how their experience impacted them.

Well, another great season in the books! Until next time! I’m your host jonquilyst, and this has been Total Drama Sims: Season 2!

Day 28 - Finale

After weeks of battle and triumph, it's time to lay the 2nd season of Total Drama Sims to rest and officially crown a winner!

Our finalists, Liana Morris and Paulina Callaway, had the wits, guts, and strength to persevere through the entire game, outlasting everyone else in the process. Now, all of the eliminated contestants will be coming together to vote for a winner! Like last season, votes will be public and will go from the bottom of the leaderboard up! (aka last place to the most recently eliminated)

Let's see who will be winning Total Drama Sims and receive the grand prize!!

14TH PLACE - BRODY SHERMAN

"I'm voting for you Paulina, because we talked for a bit on the very first day and I thought you were pretty cool, so... yeah."

13TH PLACE - TRISTAN BACHMAN

"Liana, because you're nice, I guess, and I underestimated you a bit. But I never even talked to Paulina, so..."

12TH PLACE - ASHLEE SCHAEFER

"Paulina, the fact that you got eliminated, lucked out and joined the other team, and then just... never got eliminated after that was pretty freakin' awesome! Sooo much cooler than Liana's run, if you ask me, so I'm voting for you."

11TH PLACE - NEAL WARD

"This was a difficult vote for me since I felt like I was genuinely friends with both of you, but I'm deciding to vote for Paulina because I felt closer to her and Liana was part of the alliance that voted me out. Hope you don't take it personally, Liana, but that's just how I feel."

10TH PLACE - WILLABELLE LOWES

"I'm obviously voting for you, Liana! Ever since Toni got out I was keeping my fingers crossed you'd make it to the end! While I would have liked to win, if there's anyone who should win instead, it's definitely you."

TIED FOR 8TH PLACE - HANS SOMME

"I did a lot of thinking ever since I was eliminated. While I was watching the rest of the competition, I realized that Liana was friends with everybody... literally! She went up and became friends with everybody, and because of that no one seemed to want to vote her out. She was also so sweet and humble, never once bragging about herself and comforting others when they were in a bad mood... And I just thought to myself: 'Damn... No wonder I got out so quick.'"

"I've kinda realized I'm not the best person around... I've had some beef with a few people here, and that's kinda what led to me getting out... So, out of respect for you Liana, I'm voting for you. I wanna try to be more like you in the future."

TIED FOR 8TH PLACE - TONI STROUD

"Of course you're getting my vote, Liana! I am so proud that you made it to the finale. You deserve the entire world, girly!"

7TH PLACE - COFFEE BEAN

"I'm voting for you, Paulina, because you were very kind to me after you joined the Illustrious Star-Shines. Also, I believe that you did not deserve to be voted out of the Renowned Big-Names. It's so cool you made it to the finale despite being eliminated before, so I believe you deserve to win."

6TH PLACE - ENZO ESPINOZA

"I knew you could do it, Paulina! You're so talented. Even though I couldn't win, I really hope you can. So of course, my vote is going to you, my love."

5TH PLACE - TAKASHI ABBOTTSFORD

"Liana! I'm voting for you because you're super nice and I think you deserve to win!"

4TH PLACE - FLO HARPER

"Yeah, you're a real one for sure, Liana, so I'm voting for you! You deserve it!"

3RD PLACE - DREW PINTO

"What Flo said! But also, that morning when you comforted me Liana... You didn't have to do that, but you did, and I really, really appreciate it... I honestly think both of you deserve to win; you're both my friends, but I have to choose one or the other, so... I'm choosing Liana."

With a vote of 7-5, the winner of the 2nd season of Total Drama Sims is...

LIANA MORRIS!!!

CONGRATULATIONS @bloomingkyras!! Liana has won the competition and has therefore won the grand prize! The grand prize consists of a small real-life award given personally from me (you will be contacted), while in-universe, whatever Liana receives is up to you! Whether it's 1,000,000 simoleons, a mansion, or even a dream vacation, it's hers!

There will be 1 final post to close out Total Drama Sims: Season 2 and celebrate our winner! Stay tuned…

Day 4 - Challenge Day

It's time for another challenge! This challenge's movie genre is romantic comedy! The teams will be divided into 3 pairs each, with one person from each pair tasked to find the other within this two-story maze. Once they find their partner, they must find the exit of the maze together. The first team to have all 3 pairs exit the maze wins invincibility!

Due to uneven teams, one person from the Illustrious Star-Shines will be sitting this challenge out, and my random wheel of names has chosen Takashi! Takashi is exempt from this challenge and will be waiting outside for his teammates.

Now, onto our pairs! My random wheel of names has decided our pairs at random. The person's name that's bolded is the seeker and will be finding their partner within the maze.

For the Illustrious Star-Shines:

Ashlee and Coffee

Flo and Tristan

Drew and Hans

For the Renowned Big-Names:

Paulina and Toni

Liana and Willabelle

Enzo and Neal

As soon as I said "go," Coffee and Tristan were off right away! Coffee is the first seeker to find her partner, but fortunately for the Illustrious Star-Shines, Tristan wasn't that far behind!

Neal is the first of the Renowned Big-Names to find his partner, Enzo! Enzo was very excited to be found. However, Hans is the final seeker of the Illustrious Star-Shines to find his partner. So far, the Star-Shines are in the lead!

But the Big-Names begin to catch up when Paulina and Liana find their partners. Toni looks relieved to be found!

Coffee and Ashlee, Tristan and Flo, and Enzo and Neal are the first 3 pairs to exit the maze, with Liana and Willabelle following close behind... The lead the Star-Shines are having is beginning to narrow.

But Toni, with a confident look on her face, knows that she is the last of the Renowned Big-Names to exit the maze. She secures victory for her team and Willabelle and Liana are quick to celebrate!

THE RENOWNED BIG-NAMES WIN!

Unfortunately, despite the Star-Shines being on-track for their second victory, Drew lagged behind in the maze at the very end, which allowed the Big-Names to secure victory instead. Ouch...

Big-Names, you've won invincibility and are safe tonight! Star-Shines, get ready for your first trip to the auditorium!

Day 13 - Socialization Day

*sniff sniff* P-U! What do I smell? Did somebody forget to shower again?

I looked back and forth and there it was... the green plume of stink emanating from Hans' (IS) armpits. Yep, somebody forgot to shower again. This might be TDS, but come on, Hans!

I made sure to wipe that smirk off his face by banishing him to the shower.

Anyway, onto the other contestants... Coffee (IS) was feeling rather down today and didn't feel like socializing. She decided to spend her day alone by reading a book in the makeup trailer.

Toni (RB) was also feeling rather upset because of the elimination of Neal yesterday. Liana (RB) was quick to notice her friend's sour mood and lent her an ear and a shoulder 💖 Liana is such a sweetheart 😭 She reminded Toni of this one important detail about TDS: "It's just a game."

It was a happier and sillier time for Drew (IS) and Flo (IS). They laughed over funny videos for a while and... since their friendship bar is completely maxed out, became best friends forever! 💖 These two have made other friends besides each other, but... there's just something extra special these two have for each other that makes them inseparable!

And speaking of other friends, when bedtime rolled around Flo spent some time talking to Coffee! They had a cute late-night chat after everyone else fell asleep.

Today's Confessional: Toni Stroud

"Neal... If you're watching this, I want you to know that I'm sorry. I didn't want you to leave... Granted, I didn't want Willabelle to leave either, but... You did better in the challenge than all 3 of us. Out of everybody, you definitely shouldn't have been the one to leave..."

"I hope you don't hold anything against us... If you need somebody to blame, blame the stupid host for kicking you out. I really hope you can kick that comeback challenge's butt and come back into the game!"
