Tribe Selection - Part 2

[clauderainsrm]

 

Watch on YouTube

(NOTE:  This post will be updated as the results become final  - if you haven't voted yet, votes are still being accepted until 6pm ET today! https://therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1070448.html  Until then, enjoy the anticipation! ) 


There are two sets of buffs - red and blue. When I call your name, come over and take your place on your tribe’s mat.

As you know, the make-up of each tribe was determined by your votes.   The first pick is made by the “team captain”, the person who received the most votes.  From there it goes round robin, alternating between tribes with the top choice still on the board, as selected by the most recent pick. 

This will continue until there is only one person remaining.   That outcast will be headed to Exile Island until the next challenge.  They will be able to compete, if they want. But any votes they get will not count for a team.  They won’t be leaving empty handed though.  *holds out a small lumpy envelope*   

The rest of you will go back to camp and await your first challenge tomorrow.

*claps hands*  So let's get to it! 

The Red tribe is Luzon.



The "Captain" of Luzon, who will make the first selection is bleodswean

Which means, wolfden ,   I believe this is yours.  *hands over the envelope*  Open this when you get to Exile Island.   (I will email the contents to you)   You can decide to share the information or keep it to yourself.  It’s up to you. You may not have been selected for a tribe, but you are very much still in this game.

 

The rest of you, I’ve got nothing for you.  Head on back to camp and get to know your new tribe mates.  I’ll see you tomorrow.

Can't wait!

What's He Saying?

[murielle]

Even with my earbuds--standard so my neighbors don't murder me--I can't tell if he's saying, "G'mornin' guys!" or "C'mon in guys!"

What's Jeffy saying?

Re: What's He Saying?

[lawchicky819]

It's usually "come on in guys!"

[adoptedwriter]

It’s gettin’ real!

[murielle]

Yup!

Yikes!

Production Note

If, for some reason, someone selected as a Team Captain (the two best scores) DOES NOT turn in a ranking - the first pick and "captain's duties" of selecting would go to the person with the next best score.

Hey, while we're all waiting on democracy as it takes its sweet time, I built a shelter. Come on in and have some suspect water.

[jenwithapen]

OOOH, OOOH! I brought five or six packs of those Lifestraws I ordered off of Amazon before I left! -holding them briefly like Vanna White- "Lifestraw, slaughtering bad bacteria on slurp at a time!"

I saw this and got all excited at first, but then there was just a bunch of [REDACTED] all over that place and I've gotta say, that makes me feel [REDACTED].

I'm so [REDACTED] about this whole thing! I can't wait to see who ends up as Team Captains and how the pick order goes.

[jenwithapen]

I was once [REDACTED] in Mexico. I was only [REDACTED] at the time. Inside a van, [REDACTED] gave me a [REDACTED] to on, and told me I should sit [REDACTED]. From there, through the bumps and bangs, the grind of metal over metal, and the swishsway of tieback roads, we [REDACTED].

When we got to [REDACTED], a man with a smile took me inside the [REDACTED]. His smile reminded me of the broken fence we'd once had around our villa. Father had had to sell it to his brother, [REDACTED]. For reasons I wouldn't understand, papa had said. I remember thinking reason would have been great a time like this!

[jenwithapen]

I can't help but wonder if Gary wants us to come on in, guys?

[halfshellvenus]

Jeff SAYS "Come on in," but a lot of the time he means "Get out!"

Wait, that sounds like Gary too... :O

[megatronix]

I found some weird tiny nuts growing out of the ground, anyone want to eat them with me??

==

Also, omg, I'm going to be at the vet with my puppy during the reveal of all the redacted stuff! I think I'll be able to check though, since I have to stay in my car most of the time anyway. EXCITING!!

[gunwithoutmusic]

Personally I'm partial to these things I think are fruit. They're full of bugs, of course.

[bsgsix]

Getting down to the wire. Anyone excited? I am! No matter the outcome and how we begin - we're beginning! I'm looking forward to it, minus all the redactions? I LIKE INFO, OKAY???

Ha!

:)

[n3m3sis43]

I'm excited too!

[eeyore_grrl]

T-9 min.

I'm nervous!

[bittyjane]

I’ve been at work all day so have been able to avoid the constant screen refreshing for an update I know won’t be there yet. Well, mostly. But now I’m home and can’t stop checking!! The suspense is killing me! >.

[gunwithoutmusic]

Same! I held off until six but now I'm just sitting here hitting refresh!

[impoetry]

He left us out here to die alone. I don't think he's coming back. The list we made is really the order of which people we'd eat first when starvation rolls in.

[flipflop_diva]

And you wanted everyone to put you first ....

[bleodswean]

Hai guys - something going on in here?

[gunwithoutmusic]

Oh hey! There you are!

Wait a minute... Should I be suspicious?

[gunwithoutmusic]

I refreshed the page and got a "502 Bad Gateway" error.

Then I had a heart attack and died. Then I refreshed again and it came back up and I was fine.

[impoetry]

ASAGAAAAAAAA

[gunwithoutmusic]

ASAGAAAAA!

[bleodswean]

*THUNK*

*REVIVES*

*GRABS MEGAPHONE* LUZONITES!!!!!

*SOCIALLY DISTANT JOY JIG*

And away we gooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[murielle]

LUZONITES!!!!! LUZONITES!!!!! LUZONITES!!!!!

[minikin25]

I’m confused. Shouldn’t the words “redacted until 6pm” have gone away at 6 pm?

Why does the Luzon buff say that the Philippines are in South Africa?

Production Note

[clauderainsrm]

The "redacted" was manual. I had to update it myself. :)

Survivor: South Africa had a season in the Philippines. Luzon was one of the tribes on that season.

[flipflop_diva]

I’m having traumatic flashbacks to elementary school lol

[bsgsix]

LOL. I love you. You are in my "awesome people tribe!"

Doesn't help HERE, but it's true facts! I'll play with you. :)

(In a consenting non-creepy way - I just realized how that all sounded and I'm SO SORRY if that came off as creepy. You're a cool person. That is what I meant!) <3

[uselesstinrelic]

Ack! Help me, I'm bad at the internet! I just found out this was happening. Thanks for telling me, Meghan! Thanks for picking me, Bleodswean!

[megatronix]

All good in the hood! We're just getting started so you're right on time! :D

[jenwithapen]

WOO HOO! Hello teammates! And uhh.. againstmates?! We're all gonna rock this, I can feeeeeeeeeeeeeel it!

[halfshellvenus]

Hahaha-- I'm still working and super-distracted today, so trying to figure out what's going on in this post as the day progresses has been... \o?

The first thing I noticed was that (D'OH, should have seen this coming!) my #1 "not-me" choice in the ranking wound up being the other team captain. But of course!

I think the rest of this is all happening behind the scenes now, via MATH, but since all of the players are awesome, I know my team will be awesome as well!

Welcome, fellow ASAGANs!!!

[jenwithapen]

WOOHOO! -picks out a stump and a flat board, and starts carving- We'll have a sign to stick up over our camp in no time! Bathed in the blood of our enemies!! Or, you know, maybe some wild mushrooms or berries or something!

[impoetry]

We love you wolfden!

[bsgsix]

We do! (Sorry to piggyback, but I figured you wouldn't mind TOO much.)

Though I wonder what this means, since, to me, this is VERY new (not Idol, but this specific format). Too bad I'm never up at 9-10 am for announcements. I guess I'll find out around 2-3 pm!

[bleodswean]

Where do we gather to begin plotting the machinations of this theatre of words???

I will be back online first thing in the am PST. Get some sleep, Luzonites! Did anyone break a coffee pot???? *scours beach for some...coffee beans for the morning*

[murielle]

Coffee beans? I have coffee beans! I smuggled them in my pocket. Y'all don't mind a little fluff, do you? <3

[impoetry]

More like the red tribe is Luzin.

[megatronix]

This made me laugh out loud. I'd had a similar thought! XD
