Immunity #1
[Quest For Fire]Welcome Castaways to your very first Immunity Challenge! Today's challenge is one of the few that will not be totally wild west themed. But in keeping with Survivor tradition, Quest for Fire is almost always the first challenge. This is the first step in your adventure to become the winner of the exciting first game in this new series. I hope you've been getting to know your tribe mates well - because this challenge requires a whole lot of teamwork.
It's a known fact that fire represents life in this game. This challenge is a perfect initiation into the off family of New Hope. It's time light your torches!
As tribes
only seven people must work together, build a fire, and light the participating members torches. Please have someone on the tribe message me the
NAMES of two people who will be sitting out.
As a tribe you must complete the following Legs:
Leg 1. Find All 7 Torches
Leg 2. Collect Wood
Leg 3. Swim To Get Flint
Leg 4. Start A Fire
Leg 5. Light The TorchesYour official time starts when one member of your tribe begins a thread labeled "
OFFICIAL IC#1" 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 7 Torches - The 7 competing castaways will begin by posting a picture of an unlit torch or tiki in the
"OFFICIAL IC#1" thread. If a member of your tribe is missing, any available tribe mate will be able to post for them, but I must know who the unlit torch is for. There is a 4 hour penalty if someone posts for someone else.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Leg 2:
Collect Wood - once 7 tribe mates have posted an unlit torch, 6 members of your tribe must post:
"[Name] is collecting wood."
These posts must be in Alphabetical order by name. Again you may post for another player but with a 4 hour penalty per person. Use that players name in Alphabetical order too. If the posts are out of order there is a 30 min penalty.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Leg 3:
Swim To Get Flint - once 6 members of the tribe collect wood, 5 members must swim to get flint using the following strokes:
crawl, breast, butterfly, doggy paddle.
- The five castaways must each use at least
TWO of these strokes, two separate times
- Each stroke must be used at least one time
- No stroke can be used back to back
- Whatever stroke the
FINAL person uses, make sure you wait the appropriate amount of time before moving on to Leg 4
- 5 players
MUST participate in this leg, no one may post in place of someone else
The following time must be waited between each Swim To Get Flint post:
crawl - 5 min
breast - 10 min
butterfly - 20 min
doggy paddle - 30 min
Follow the example below.
Example of Leg 3:
"[Name] is using the [Stroke] to get the flint for [Tribe name]"Jimmy is using the crawl to get the flint for [tribe] [[tribe] waits at least 5 minutes]
Jane is using the butterfly to get the flint for [tribe] [[tribe] waits at least 20 minutes]
Ethan is using the doggy paddle to get the flint for [tribe] [[tribe] waits at least 30 minutes]
Bobby Jon is using the crawl to get the flint for [tribe] [[tribe] waits at least 5 minutes]
Monica is using the breast stroke to get the flint for [tribe] [[tribe]waits at least 10 minutes] etc..
----------------------------------------------------------------------Leg 4:
Starting Fire - 4 members must post the following:
"[Name] is starting the fire".
These posts can be in ANY order, just make sure the 4 correct people post in this challenge. A 4 hour penalty will be added if someone decides to post for another player.
----------------------------------------------------------------------Leg 5:
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.
The text and image 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 4 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 obstacle course, 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 three rejoin
Leg 5: 7 tribe mates
----------------------------------------------------------------------Each tribe will have from now till
(8pm est tomorrow) to complete this challenge. Your tribes official starting time is when an OFFICIAL IC#1 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 5.
The tribe who completes this obstacle course the fastest will win Immunity.
The tribe that is slowest to complete this challenge will be the first tribe to visit Tribal Council. They will have a date with me tomorrow night where one of you will have the great honor of being the first person voted out of the game.
Good luck everyone!
Survivors Ready!?!
GO!
