Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

I believe everybody has completed, but I don't have all the scores, so we have to wait for John Cena to get back.

I'm not sure when that will be, so if you have places to be, don't wait up.

We had a brief power outage here in my town, furthering my mass suspicions of the existing feud of John Cena vs Running Challenges On Time. Here's the final score output!!!




Nobody scored a 2048.


WinsonPaine scored with a nice 876!
Byers did respectable with 1020!
Propaganda Machine clearly tried with a score of 1428!
Give Windshipper a round of applause for his effort filled 2092!
Hey CapnAndy, you did swell with 2172!
IcePhoenix, you're a super player with 2204 points!!!


Good job guys. None of you won.

However, our top four scorers might have! How did Fast Luck, Bowmore, Majuju, and Dhaes do? Let's find out...

Coming in fourth place, Dhaes did strongly with 3020 points! Amazing job, sir!

Fast Luck deserves credit for squeaking by him with 3032 points! Lucky indeed!



However, neither of you won. It comes down to Bowmore vs Majuju.







Majuju, you scored with 6080.



Bowmore, you put in a lot of work to achieve 4964! However, that's not enough to pull it off.






Majuju wins Individual Immunity!!!


Congratulations Majuju, you're safe from the next vote. Tribal Council will occur tomorrow night at 6:00PM. Another one of you going to the jury, another person losing their shot at winning this game. Minor note, I will leave the game link here. If anybody can score a 2048 and BEAT the flash game and send me a screenshot before the next challenge, you'll earn a little reward. Here's the game, folks.

For further clarification, in the original game you're working towards 2048.



2 twos make a four, 2 fours make an eight, etc etc.

In this the numbers are replaced by avatars so the goal is to get to the final avatar and get this screen, which I guess I'll spoil if you don't want to know who the final one is (it's in the corner).



You need to get this to get the ~special reward~

Tribal Council 7

Bundlepile Tribe, Welcome to Tribal Council. We're now merged, and Tribal Council goes from being bad for the tribe, to now bad for you on an individual basis now that the game has come down to an every man for themselves type game.

During Tribal Council, you are NOT allowed to communicate outside of the thread by any means. No PMing eachother, no communicating in external docs, all talking occurs inside this thread. You can talk outside of answering the questions, but it must all be contained in this thread while Tribal Council is going on.



As is tradition with Tribal Council, we have some questions, submitted by players not attending tonight and from those in the viewer's vista. You must answer the questions asked to you in this thread before you're allowed to cast a vote. I will open voting at 6:30 or when everyone has answered their questions. Failure to cast a vote by the deadline (1:00 AM Tonight) will result in a vote cast for yourself.

QUESTIONS FOR TONIGHT'S TRIBAL COUNCIL:

Dhaes, Bowmore, Fast Luck, you were in the top 4 for the challenge but couldn't manage a win, against a former Durf at that. Do you think you would have needed immunity tonight?

Propaganda Machine, Byers, CapnAndy, IcePhoenix, WinsonPaine, with you guys seeming to have a strong 6 alliance, is there any concern that somebody might flip?

Majuju, you won immunity and so far are the only one is definitely a known contender to win the bonus challenge. Do you think this display of skill paints a target on your back? Secondly, people saw your screaming fox avatar a lot of times in the latest challenge. Do you think being at the fore-front of players' sub-conscious makes you a super-target?

Skinty, windshipper, with the way the votes played out last week, how likely do you think it is there will be a pagonging of all the non-Durfs?

For everyone

Were you surprised by the results of last tribal council? What does this mean for your position tonight?

There's always some concern that your allies won't stick with you; at the end of the day, six people can't all win the game. But I feel confident that this tribal will be a continuation of the previous tribal.

Not very, honestly. I was the principle driver of how the last tribal went, so had little chance to be surprised myself. I made my bed last time, and now I'm exactly where I'd expect to be; in the majority, but hated by those whose loyalty I betrayed. I'm not exactly happy with my position, but I'm not surprised by anything.

This is the funniest question ever to be asked in council. I know this is only like my seventh, but I am gonna go with this.

Noish? I guess I was surprised it went the way it did NOW THAT YOU HAVE OUTED ME AND NAMED ALL MY BUDDIES I DONT HAVE TO LIE I GUESS so yeah idk where the seventh vote came from but it pretty much went how I thought it would. Maybe for one of the bigger votes I will get out the banjo and play a tune of dismissal.

I think I have built up enough solid relationships with players and am willing enough to work with them to possibly avoid such a thing. After all, without me or Skinty, CapnAndy wouldn't have this opportunity right now. I can't speak for the rest, but (for example), we brought in another one of the Durfs in on this plan to help us carry it forth.

Even so, like I said before, I'm playing for fun. If it bites me in the back, so be it. I'm not a fan of that happening, but I'll take whatever happens. This has been a fun game and I hope it stays that way.

I'm not surprised, no. I wasn't sure if Disco could be trusted. I may have made the wrong choice, I don't know and may never know, but given what I knew and had seen at that time, Disco was the smart choice. Out of all of us in De, it seemed like he was the one who was playing the long game and it seemed like he would be the one to pull a Chili. Combine that with YPM being voted out, and from there the decision had to be made.

If I was wrong then... Well, don't look at me that way. It was an honest mistake.

Okay guys, it's now time to vote. Using the above template, fill out on the parchment who you wish to vote for. The person that receives the highest number of votes is the next person voted out of this game, losing their chance at the $75 grand prize. There is to be absolutely zero out of thread communication until after the votes are read. Majuju has Individual Immmunity, he's safe from the vote tonight. You have until 1:00 AM to cast a vote. Good luck, folks!

That's always a concern. In theory it's an individual game now. Durf seems to have a good thing going, but as the numbers dwindle there's always the risk that somebody might get cold feet.

It's hard to really be surprised when you can't for sure know what to expect. The results of the last tribal mean that somebody who betrayed my trust post-swap is gone and I'm still around. But, ultimately, as long as the tribal simply means somebody else is gone and I'm not, the only real effect that has on my game is moving on to play it with the people we have left.

There is always concern. I feel safe in trusting my alliance right now and would hope that they have no reason to feel otherwise themselves. It's hard to rest on your laurels when you feel in control because you're afraid people are scheming behind your back, but all paranoia does is make you see things that aren't there.

Short answer, no. As far as my position tonight, I think as long as Andy is in the game he'll take a bullet before I do, unless the bullet is coming from him. But, as per the previous answer, I don't really know why he'd bother doing that.

Eh, I don't know. This challenge in particular played to my strengths, and I was more lucky with that than anything else. I bumbled through the survey thing, and would've been a total liability for Family Feud. I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you think WinsonPaine is somehow less of a contender for Sole Survivor than myself, then you're doing a great disservice to a mighty tyrant-king whose strengths may lie somewhere that doesn't involve endless sliding of tiles and a lot of stupid restarts.

Managing to get that reward cost me probably 4 hours of my life and I was up until midnight trying to not confuse Davos and Whet Faartz (a task which grew more difficult and more desperate as the retries wore on). Other people probably went through the same thing. I don't think I'm a super-target, but to anyone who might consider me one:
