Hello and welcome to Survivor According to Zeke, the recap thread where I talk about what exactly happened in this game and where I will talk in great details about what has happened overall here. Today however, it's a special double feature episode where I will talk about the two past episodes in one entry. So, be sure to get your reading glasses ready cause there will be a lot of stuff that I will be covering today.
In this 8th episode. The schematics of what happened are as follows
- The Day After
- The Immunity Challenge
- The Tribal Council
Sadly, this episode I have lost the questions. So, we will not have the Episode Eight questions. But without further ado, let's go in on this bitch.
On the last episode. Taino has won the challenge. We all celebrated heavily. Some with drinks, some with just going to sleep. Or some with strategic talks. Anyways, after the whole big event. We all were discussing as to what could happen next round. We all either thought that we'd have a break, we all either thought that something big would happen. I have spoken with Chrissy and she said that something wicked may come after the regular Immunity Challenge/Tribal Council. I was a bit skeptical because before, I wasn't sure if a 11 person jury would make sense. But as it may show in the next feature. Anything I know is absolutely wrong. I have been having lots of conversations with Gary and he has asked me about Hannah. And I told him that I talked with her a lot. And that has made him really worried at this point because him and Hannah do not see really eye to eye. But we'll get to that later.
We all go into the next Immunity Challenge but this time, we went in with a disadvantage. As Lydia and Chrissy weren't there. Jim was nowhere to be seen, Gary was running late. And there were only Me/Hannah/Adam and Ryan there during the challenge. Chrissy tried to help us out here aswell. The challenge was a simple wordsearch with Taino dictionary as our main vocal point. We all were trying our best here to win despite us not knowing anything about the dictionary and the slang of people from Taino islands. There was a big mess that unfortunately had us losing this challenge. And we all were pretty upset about it.
Now onto the main portion of this episode where things get absolutely brutal for one of our people. We all are disappointed by the challenge results and how much we tanked this in the most absolute bad way. Some of us were thinking about doing Chrissy because it's obvious that she was an absolute threat here. But with how many people were reluctant to do this vote. We just had no idea what to do. But out of nowhere comes Hannah and she tells me she's voting for Chrissy. And I really was shocked by her vote because voting for Chrissy was pretty much a hardcore way of just being risky. And in all honesty, it was just not a well planned out move. So, we all went for the simple vote of Jim. We all go in and are ready to place the vote. Once everyone places their votes. We just are waiting for this whole thing to be over. I was absolutely stressed out because I was worried that I could be voted out after my performance in the challenge. And I really was scared about what could happen here. But then, the votes are revealed and the plot twist of this episode is that. Hannah is leaving the game. I was absolutely shocked by it and had no idea where this all has came from. It was just the biggest blindside that really just made me shook to the core. Now, we are all ready to just leave for the night when Jeff announces that this not yet over. And what happens next will be the biggest obvious point right now. But with a huge clusterfuck coming.
TO BE CONTINUED
We are now at the second part of this episode and something completely new and this one comes in with the biggest and the most exciting part of the whole game so far. So brace yourself for a lot of twists and turns.
Here are the big events
- The Merge + The Twist Announcement
- The Challenge
- The Tribal Council Debacle
- The Big Culmination
As Chrissy hypothesized and said. The next round will be a merge. But she also was right about another thing that she said in her message to me. That there will be a Tribal Council where someone will leave. And a lot of people were worried that they will not make it to the Jury at this point. We all were really worried as to what in the world will happen here. But as Jeff has announced that there will be 4 people safe for this Tribal Council.
And here is where the challenge comes it. There was a board that if you get in. You will be safe for this Tribal Council, however there was a catch. Only four people will get Immunity. Now, I was hellbent on winning this Immunity Challenge because with what has happened last night. I was absolutely worried about what could happen to me here. So, there was a lot of fire within me to get this Immunity and just make sure that I will stay untouched no matter what the fuck comes my way. And once Jeff has posted the passwords for the boards. I went in as fast as I could. I started to go through the passwords as fast as I could. And just when I got the password. I jumped in. And when I first saw that there were 6 posts already made. I thought that people already made it. So, I was angry at myself for not getting in faster. But just my luck. I actually made it safe and sound. And I got one of the four Immunities. When it all happened. I was over the moon happy as to what has happened. I absolutely relished the moment that I got the Immunity. So, yeah. I was one of the first four to have a guaranteed spot in the merge. And I didn't have to worry about people voting me out.
We all walk into the Tribal Council and everyone started to look at each other and wonder what the fuck could be happening here. Seeing as the PMs and all messaging systems were turned off. All strategy talks were done in the thread. And naturally nobody wanted to talk strategy in fear of being ostracized for it. And it was that moment that made me realize that I was absolutely happy that I won the Immunity. I cannot imagine that I would have survived this Tribal Council. But anyways, the time has ran out and everyone placed their votes. Some landed on Jim, some landed on Joaquin, one landed on Jim. Even I got a vote which by the way. I just love how I already have fans in this game that they wanted to vote me out right now. But all in all, we had a tie between Adam and Ryan. So, we all have to revote. After some more minutes of waiting. The votes were in......And we still ended up with a tie.
And here is where things really boil down to. The people that have been voting for a tie between these two gentleman are now gonna be drawing rocks. Everyone has chosen a rock and all hell breaks loose here. Plenty of rocks were safe, but it all came down between Lydia and Brian to see who will be our first Juror. And out of nowhere, the gavel has fallen and Brian is the one to leave this game as the first Juror. A lot of people were in shock, just like I was. Brian has been an absolutely fantastic player. He has been playing this game absolutely wonderfully, he has been in great contact with the Vets and the Lucayans. And now, he is gone from this game. All because of a rock. And to be honest. It was something I didn't expect at all. However, with all due respect to him and the fact that I'd like to play Devil's Advocate here. I do think that this was a good move as he was a threat. He had plenty of people in his corner ready to kill for him. And he was gonna be pretty much the brute of this game, if he was just safe. So, all in all. Although I care about him and find him to be an awesome guy. He was a threat.
So, after the shock. The merge begins now. And people are already being ready to kill to not let this situation happen once more.
And that is it for this double feature episode of Survivor According to Zeke. This episode has proven the following:
A) If you do not have a good relationship with everyone on your tribe and you do not talk with them frequently. It can all come back to haunt you
B) Even if you are on top of your game. You can still have a nasty fall once shit goes south for you.
Next time, we will be discussing the following things
- More behind the scenes talk
- Merge Assessment
- Questions
and many more.
Tune in next time folks and see ya later aligators!
