Congratulations

He might offer a HII for the first person who takes it....which might unfortunately lead to many dropping. Hopefully only from their tribe.

Checking in again :)

Caryn joined the merge tribe! If we all stay here then we're immune guaranteed!

(Which kind of sucks for everyone else on the tribe since she probably just didn't show up for twenty four hours. She was REALLY inactive Chad.)

Open question, who here if confident voting "in the dark", immune or no?

Sending Caryn over to the Guatuso tribe was a really good move on your part Tom. Her being busy in real life or whatever probably gave all 6 of us immunity

If we are immune and most or all of us haven't talked to anyone leading into TC then it will be an amazing wtf kind of council. Should be a good time!

Looks like we're all getting new avatars!

Ami, it is not a coincidence that the four least active people in the game are all on NuNuGuatuso

And at the very least, we don't have to be totally in the dark. There's six people right here we can discuss the vote with. And as long as everyone makes the logical decision from here, this should be the six people with immunity.

Did we win immunity.

If no one merges from this tribe we all get immunity and guranteed 1 in 11 chance to win the game.

I'm not sure that's the case. They really only said that we needed one person left here on Sunday. And Brenda keeps asking us these strange questions about voting together.

Brenda, are we allowed to talk about the vote here? If so, there shouldn't be an issue I wouldn't think.

Oh Caryn! Either she failed to check in or she's patiently waiting for somebody to join her on the merged tribe. We really all might as well stay here for the long haul and guarantee ourselves immunity.

Ami, you're right about the new avatars! How exciting. I changed the names in Caryn's image URL to get a sneak peak at what we'll look like:

Depending on how the next couple of days play out, I don't imagine it will be a problem. There are five other people to talk to in here compared with only Caryn on the merged tribe

Love our new avvies!

We all look so hot when we're all nice and cleaned up!

Also, I think we've got this! I panicked for a minute because I wasn't sure if I checked in last night or not, which would have sent me to the merge if I hadn't, because I only checked in in the morning before that. So it's really easy to fail at this.

And we've got until Sunday night... Ugh.

Alright, I promised you that there would be something to shake this challenge up and I will now deliver.

You have until tonight at 8c/9e to decide which two Tribe Members will join the merge tribe. If you have not come to a decision by then, I will use random.org to select 2 people at random.

You may join the merge tribe BEFORE 8c/9e, that is just the deadline. Might be a good idea to give the people joining the merger a bit more time to talk instead of making them wait until 8c.

Any ideas, anyone? Obviously whoever stays behind should be able to check in here CONSTANTLY.

We need to win this.

Jeff, let's say someone voluntarily decides to join te merge tribe before 9 tonight. Does that count as one of our mandatory 2 people joining?
