Guess Tucker's sitting out since he won't be here .. anyone else gonna have problems getting on tomorrow night at 9p or around then?

Also if anyone has to leave quick let us know so you can be at the front of the "order"

Goooo heroes

[Jamie]

Yep, Tucker sitting out it shall be!

I can be online for a little while. The latest I will be online will be 11 pm EST. But I have no idea how long the challenge will last.

I'll be watching LOST from 9-10 but I should be fine to get on after that.

Jordan, doesn't this remind you of the first challenge in Peru when you kicked our asses? I feel like it's gonna be something like that....we can start the challenge whenever we want (when we have everyone online probs) and each of us will have to do a task, and whichever tribe completes all 10 in the shortest amount of time from start to finish wins? Dats ma guess.

[Morgan]

I think I can be here on time but like Jamie I can't be up very late...

[Jamie]

Erik, we did something like this in Arabia too. It was pretty simple as long as it's organized.

[Morgan]

Care to explain the Arabia challenge for us Jamie? Just so we have an idea more or less. I just thought, you know how on the real show all of the challenges are past challenges from seasons. I'm thinking this is probably the same, so if we can brainstorm about past challenges and prepare before them, that could be of great help!

[Jamie]

Here is the challenge description from Arabia..


Today’s challenge is relatively simple, but might be complete rocket science for some. Time will tell.

Six members of the tribe must work together, find keys, un-lock themselves, build a fire and light their torches.


As a tribe you must complete the following Legs:


Leg 1. Find All Seven Keys
Leg 2. Unlock Padlock
Leg 3. Collect Wood
Leg 4. Dig To Get Flint
Leg 5. Start A Fire
Leg 6. Light The Torches


Your official time starts when one member of your tribe begins a thread labeled "OFFICIAL IC#3" in your tribe camp ground. This is where the entire challenge will take place. You can create a side thread where your tribe can talk challenge strategy, but make sure that the thread where the Legs are posted is the OFFICIAL thread.


What each tribe must do...

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 1: Find All Seven Keys – The challenge starts off with seven castaways on each tribe whose legs are chained together with a lock. The 7 competing castaways will begin by posting a picture of a key in the "OFFICIAL IC#3" thread. Each image must be different. If a member of your tribe is missing, any available tribe mate will be able to post for them, but you must name who you are posting for. There is a four hour penalty if someone posts for someone else.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 2: Unlock Padlock - Once 7 tribe mates have posted a key, 6 members of your tribe must post:

"[Name] is using key and is unlocking [Tribe mates Name]."

These posts must be backwards alphabetical order by name. So for example Robbie will unlock Luke, Luke will unlock Jake, Jake will unlock Ginny, Ginny will unlock Bleeker, Bleeker will unlock Amanda, Amanda will unlock Alex, and Alex would start at the end and unlock Robbie. Again you may post for another player but with a four hour penalty per person. If any post is out of order there is a thirty min penalty.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 3: Collect Wood - Once 6 tribe mates have their legs free, 5 members of your tribe must run around and search for wood. Post:

"[Name] is collecting wood."

These posts must be in Alphabetical order by name A-Z. Again you may post for another player but with a four hour penalty per person. Use that players name in Alphabetical order too. If the posts are out of order there is a thirty min penalty.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 4: Dig To Get Flint - Once 5 members of the tribe collect wood, 4 members must Dig through a humongous sand dune using different tools: spoon, bowl, bucket, shovel.

- The five castaways must each use at least THREE of these tools, three separate times:
- Each tool must be used at least one time
- No tool can be used back to back
- Whatever tool the FINAL person uses, make sure you wait the appropriate amount of time before moving on to Leg 4
- 4 players MUST participate in this leg, no one may post in place of someone else
- Each tool must be used at least once

The following time must be waited between each 'Dig to Get Flint' post:

Shovel - 5 min
Bucket - 10 min
Bowl - 20 min
Spoon- 30 min

Follow the example below.

Example of Leg 4:

"[Name] is using the [Tool] to get the flint for [Tribe name]"

Vartevar is using the Shovel to get the flint for Ta’lab [Ta’lab waits at least 5 minutes]
Mel is using the Bowl to get the flint for Ta’lab [Ta’lab waits at least 20 minutes]
David is using the Shovel to get the flint for Ta’lab [Ta’lab waits at least 5 minutes]
Teagen is using the Bucket to get the flint for Ta’lab [Ta’lab waits at least 10 minutes] etc..

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 5: Starting Fire – Now that you have all your wood and have found your flint, 3 members must post the following:

"[Name] is using flint to start the fire".

These posts can be in ANY order, just make sure the 3 correct people post in this challenge. A four hour penalty will be added if someone decides to post for another player.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leg 6: Lighting the Torches - in no particular order, all 7 original participating members must post the following:

"I am lighting my Torch" + an image of a lit torch, and their original key image.

The text and images can be in the same post. Again, if a member is missing then another tribe mate may post in their place, but it will cost the tribe a four hour penalty.

As you see now each Leg one tribe member on each tribe will stop competing in the challenge while the other players move on. It is up to each tribe to figure out how they want to complete this Arabian Escape, but make sure one person from your tribe is removed from the challenge after each leg. Only the fifth and final leg which requires the original 7 tribe mates (As well as the first leg).

Leg 1: 7 tribe mates; afterward one stops competing
Leg 2: 6 tribe mates; afterward one stops competing
Leg 3: 5 tribe mates; afterward one stops competing
Leg 4: 4 tribe mates: afterward one stops competing
Leg 5: 3 tribe mates ; afterward, four rejoin
Leg 6: 7 tribe mates
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Each tribe will have from now till (8:30pm est tomorrow) to complete this challenge. Your tribes official starting time is when an OFFICIAL IC#3 thread is made, and your tribes official ending time is when the 7th person posts an image of their lit torch at the end of Leg 6.

The tribe who completes this Arabian Escape course the fastest will win Immunity.

The tribe that is slowest to complete this challenge will visit Tribal Council. They will have a date with Corey + I tomorrow night where one of you will become the third castaway voted out of iSurv1vor 11.


Good luck everyone! Any questions get at the hosts.


iSurv1vors Ready!?!

[jordan]

Yeah it sounds just like that .. i would post the Peru version but I don't have access to it for some reason.

[Tom]

Yeah I'm with Erik, LOST will be occupying my life from 9-10. Does the clock START at 9 or when the first person in the order begins his/her task? If we start at 9, I'd probably be better off being toward the bottom of the order. Otherwise, I'm good being wherever.

Anyone particularly keen on being our leadoff batter?

[ia11an]

I don't think I will have any problems being on tomorrow night. I have Wednesday off too (as it stands).

[ashley]

I will be here!! Allan told me it was on now I almost had a heart attack cause im at work...and sneaking on lol

[clayton]

ill be around

[Stephen]

Would anyone mind if I go first? The challenge will start at 6 my time since I'm stranded here out west, and I know I can be here then. Later if iffy.

And just to keep track of everything, here's kinda what everyone has responded with so far... and we can determine our final order later on. Feel free to edit this if something comes up, or add yourself!

No Preference
- Allan
- Ashley
- Clayton

Better Early
- Jamie (not too late)
- Morgan (not too late)
- Stephen (first if possible?)

Better Later
- Erik (after LOST)
- Tom (after LOST)
