For those of you who have yet to do it, please grab a torch and approach the flame, dip it in and get fire. This is part of the ritual of Tribal Council because in this game fire represents your life. When your fire is gone - so are you. Gentlemen, it's with a heavy heart that you're here but you've got a job to do - vote someone out of Tibet.
Below each of you is a short question, answer it as a video reply below this post. We do encourage discussion between players in these situations so speak your mind even if you have already answered your question.
Let's kick things off with you, how was the swap for this tribe? There was always talk of a switch happening in the game was it even fathomable to consider a sudden change into a gender war? Explain from your perspective. Looking at the answers from the questionnaire, you received quite a few negative answers. Do you think those opinions will influence your tribe in this vote at all? Are you worried that perception could possibly be reality in your case? Explain.
This is your second time playing iSurv1vor, and you've managed to lose all but one challenge so far here in Tibet. I mean, I think it's safe to say this is not the ideal second chance for you. Tell me what's going through your mind right now? Explain. Also, now that everyone is understanding of the pearl mechanics this season, how does this now change how you play the game going forward? And more importantly does it change how you eliminate people from here on out? Explain.
At this point, Tibet is shaping out very differently than your most recent experience in Russia. Tell me a little bit about your experience making it to the second phase of the game here, vs the second phase of the game in iS26? Explain. The last challenge was a complete shut out. Any particular reason why your tribe as a whole flopped? Explain. Also, how are you feeling about your position in the game right now.
In the Immunity challenge, in the eyes of the ladies you are the new Dontok tribe leader who has an ego. Not the best things to be called out for in the game of iSurv1vor. Tell me your thoughts on those results, and how did the men's tribe receive what the women has said about them? Explain. Also, when thinking about the vote, do you believe old tribal lines will come into play tonight? If so, what does that mean for old Palpung?
How was the transition from Ganden to Dontok been for you? Did you feel like this tribe welcomed you with open arms and made you comfortable wearing the blue buff? Explain. Also, this tribe is made up of men from three different tribes. You guys won the first challenge and have had time to get to know one another, feel each other out, and learn a little bit about life on the old opposing tribes. With that being said, in your opinion, where do you think the shift in allegiances will lie tonight, and what have you done to make sure your vote stands in majority? Explain.
Let's talk about the concept of this season for a second, Fans vs Favorites. I count four Favorites and five Fans. Tonight could be an open and shut case, Favorites have lost more people than Fans so far. These past-players have had their moment in the sun and didn't win before. That is a fact. Are the numbers clear tonight, or does this tribe operate at a higher level of strategy since there are past dynamics from three different tribes? Explain. Lastly, without mentioning any names right now, and if your intentions go according to plan, what are some parting words, or words of advice you have to the person you're voting out tonight? Explain.
This is your first time voting after being on a very strong original tribe of fans. Now that you've finally lose fifteen days into the game, the game must have changed to some degree. Explain to me what it like heading back to camp fully aware that Tribal Council was looming. Explain. Also, what are you basing your vote on tonight? Explain.
Why do you think your tribe did so poorly in this immunity challenge? Explain. Now that the men are sitting here, is there anything you would have done differently to help secure a win? Also, now that you're at your first official Tribal Council, seeing how the pearls operate in this setting, and knowing an idol clue will be handed to someone from this tribe after the vote, do you think coming from original Dontok, where winning directly kept you unaware to this part of the game has been as disadvantage? Explain.
What's the atmosphere on this men's tribe really like? Explain, Also, for the first 10 days of the game you were on a tribe that was constantly winning. This past challenge, you didn't even get to take your turn because the men who went before you bombed so hard. How does it feel accumulating your first loss for the season, and knowing there was absolutely nothing you could have done to help gain any point toward a potential win? Explain.
Before we vote, these pearls will play a part in the game
One white, one black, two very different abilities
The black pearl blocks a castaway from voting
and in turn,
The white pearl gives one castaway an extra vote
The pearls will be given to the castaway voted out of Tibet and they will hand one each to the castaways of their choice, shaping the next time this tribe visits Tribal Council.
In addition, the player(s) who receive the second highest amount of votes will be given a clue to the location of a Hidden Immunity Idol.
