Got my lean-to set up. Traded my bikini for some peanut butter cup. I'm all set!

First off, I'm not sure there's anyone on this island i want to make out with... especially since my wife and son will probably see this show later.

ow, we didn't get thrown out of a plane, or set adrift in a sinking sailboat or anything? Cool!

I'm stringing up a hammock, and once I get some driftwood collected and a fire started, I'm going to start building a radio from these coconuts. NOT Novelty's, some other coconuts, taht I found WAYYYYYY over there.

Quis, I'll trade you my special air-conditioned Davy Crockett hat for 6 sugar-free peanut butter cups.

Done FC. *puts on hat. Takes out pocket mirror to make sure hat is on properly* I can't wait to get to our rooms so I can see how I look in this in a full length mirror. I hope they bring our luggage soon.

I'm feeling a bit peckish. Where is the nearest 5 star restaurant? Oh wait, we are roughing it, aren't we? OK where is the nearest 4 star restaurant?

LAL, I think those are Lance's bikini coconuts. Oh and I secretly traded by coconuts for some waterproof matches earlier.

Yeah, I think those were the 3 coconuts I was using. Ok, hold on... Finally! Got the DVD player hooked up to the plasma TV. Now...um...hey...where's an outlet? What's that Quis? I'm gonna need how long of an extension cord!?

Good luck to everyone!
WAIT A MINUTE! You mean we can use our screen name indicated abilities/characteristics in the game? I think I might be able to find some good tactics then - like eating all the other players, stomping on them, lighting campfires - really BIG campfires...

I think the rules indicate that you can't intentionally kill or seriously injure other players. However, you fire lighting abilities will be handy.

No making out for me, either. I'm only attracted to others of my own species.

I'm glad I can float. I don't think Gamara can hear me from way down here!

I will make out with anyone of my own species and the opposite gender as soon as I find one. It has been a loooooooong millenial dry spell. No wonder I am grumpy, but still I won't stomp anyone. Promise.

I travel quite a bit for my job, so it varies, but right now: EST.

A heads up for all contestants worried about the posting times: although I'll announce the times that challenges begin, almost all of them will run for 24 hours to be fair to everyone.

Well, yes I certainly could roast a pig, but are we following the Surivor format in that we are all one tribe at this point, or have we been split? 'Cause dedman and Quislet are not on my team, dunno if I am supposed to be helping them at this point or not.

Hm - so we ARE allowed to use our abilities, hm? Well then I'll just fly over to Japan, pick up a kobe-beef cow, fly it back here, and roast my team up some steaks!

Oh, well in that case, I suppose I should let everyone know I have the power to teleport to any Bob Evans, Cracker Barrel, or Longhorns anywhere. (All you can eat liver - yum!)

All right, Survivors, bring it in.

[Linked Image]


And now coming out of the woods, we get our first look at the St'balla tribe:

[Linked Image]

Novelty, Language Arts Lad AKA Davey Fairplay (why do I feel foreshadowing there?), Sketch Lad, Gamara, Floating Foxlike Creature, and Lard Lad.

First day at the St'balla camp and already the game is on. Novelty showed early initiative by making a smart trade (coconuts for waterproof matches). That should come in handy should something happen to St'balla's ready-made firestarter, Gamara. Gamara himself took the bull by the horns, so to speak, sneaking off the island for a little Japanese cow-raiding. Just a heads up, Gamara, points for style, but it's a fine line between being a strong player and being considered a threat. If I've seen it once, I've seen it a hundred times: on Survivor, perception is 9/10th of Tribal Law. A little friendly rivalry seems to be building between Gamara and his fellow airborne tribemate, Floating Foxlike Creature. Both of them, along with Davey Fairplay, also claim there's no "make-out' worthy teammates. We'll see... it's only Day 1 and 30 days is a loooooong time.


And here comes the N'hura Tribe:

[Linked Image]

Kenaustin, Fat Cramer, dedman, Lone Wolf Legionnaire, Lance, and Quislet Esq.

On the N'hura side, Lance learned early on that coconut swimwear... while incredibly fetching... is also incredibly chafing. Off to the wayside with those! Dedman, true to form, wasted no time putting his death-dealing skills to use, providing wild pig for all. In addition to the food of the wild variety, there was also the issue of the smuggled-in peanut-butter cups brought by Quislet. Quis proved himself quite the gentleman by engaging in a little peanut-butter cup swapping with Fat Cramer. Hmmmm... a budding Survivor romance? wink You usually don't see that with cats and dogs.


All right, Survivors! On to today's Reward Challenge.


In this challenge, the Survivors must enter into the dense forrest of the Spaceopoly boards. Hidden in the first 25 threads are 10 modified posts written by Exnihil. The original posts have been deleted and replaced with 10 images of Marzal's favorite son: Troy Stewart, AKA the Legionnaire, Tyroc.

These images are labeled 1 through 10. Survivors must locate these images, and, upon finding all 10, rearrange them to reflect the correct publication order by DC Comics.

Once you think you have the right order, send a Private Message to Exnihil with your answer...


<span style="font-size: 30px;">DO NOT POST IT ON THE BOARD!</span>


If you post your answer, or any hints, on the board, your Tribe will be disqualified, and Reward will go to the opposing Tribe. For every correctly placed chronological answer, contestants will receive one point. The Tribe with the highest point value accumulated wins the Challenge.

Want to know what you're playing for?

[Linked Image]

Six Legion flight rings for your Tribe to be used in the game. Although several contestants already possess the power of flight, the ring has one added benefit: In the upcoming Immunity Challenge, it allows the possessors to fly over the first clue to get a head start. It could mean the difference between Survival... or Elimination.

Survivors have 24 hours to complete this challenge and... through the use of PM, may work together (though it behooves you to only work with your own tribe-mates).


Survivors ready... GO!!!

"Marzal's favorite son"? You mean there are humans living on this island? Well, I did hear some screaming last night, but I thought it was coming from the other tribe's camp.

What happens if we send you a PM with an incorrect order for the images? Is there a penalty?

Jeff Proty said, "For every correctly placed chronological answer, contestants will receive one point."

No deductions occur for mistakes, but points are only earned for correct placement. Example: if the correct order is "1,2,3,4," and you say, "1,3,2,4," you would earn 2 points. Each team can earn up to a maximum of 60. In the event of a tie, the edge would go to the first team to finish.

is there a good way to make a mailing list on this board by which we could communicate with the team as a whole?

NOTE: (not a hint, just a reiteration).

I've received a couple of PM's stating that not all 10 images are out there. This is incorrect. I've just double-checked, and they are all where I left them (time-stamped even wink ) Certainly there are a couple of red herrings but, trust me, all 10 images are visible... you've just got to dig deeper.
