TWIST ANNOUNCEMENT
Hello everyone! I know everyone was expecting a switch up to happen this round, and you guys were on the right track with your logic. So before we begin with what the twist is, let's say the words you've all been expecting...
DROP YOUR BUFFS!
Original tribes are now done, however you won't be dividing into new tribes quite yet. Consider this a neutral period. This is not a merge however tribal lines have been abolished.
Now onto the twist -- Exile and the prisoner's dilemma are no more.
Who can you trust? We asked this question early on in the season. It has set the tone of the season and I'm sure is something you have asked yourself many times in the game. Well get ready to think about that question in a whole new way as you adapt to this season's new twist...
After this round we will go from 14 individual players to 7 public sets of pairs.
Prior to the deadline of the challenge you will need to submit a ranking of everyone in the game from 1 (who you most want as your partner) to 13 (who you least want as your partner). If the person you rank #1 also ranks you #1 you will be soulmates. No questions asked. Easy. If you are not a match, you will match with an available player based on your rankings. Order of assignment will be determined by the upcoming challenge.
Now I'm sure you're already thinking of who you will pick, but there's more to this twist. There are pros and cons of keeping your pair in the game. In individual challenges, if your partner wins Immunity, you will also be immune. Pretty sweet right?
However, it won't always be paradise within these duos. Because we plan on making the question "Who can you trust?" a difficult one to answer. If your partner gets voted out of the game, you will receive a power. There are 7 powers up for grabs in this phase of the game. All varying in ability and some not unique.
Can you trust that the person you pair with won't be tempted to take you out for their own benefit? Will you be the player to team up with someone you want out to selfishly get a reward? Only time will tell!
For now, before I leave you all to start mingling with the players you haven't met yet, I have one last bombshell. This round you will all be attending Tribal Council and voting someone out of the game.
If you all have any questions about the twist feel free to reach out to us, we will be glad to answer. Tree Mail will be posted shortly.
