ROUND NINE: HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT?
Come on in, guys! As you know, two c*nts quit last round and ruined some of my planning.
I'll take this back. For the last time.
As you're aware, today... this immunity is NOT up for grabs.
That's because...
DROP YOUR BUFFS!
For realz.

Since I'm sure you're all feeling the love, the name for this tribe is Ngalu - Tongan for "the end," a reference to, well, the end, the Ultimate Game. The tribe camp, usergroup edits, updated memory wall, etc. will all be attended to shortly.
Secondly...
Heidi has been at Redemption Island, and she is no longer - she is an official member of the Ngalu tribe. She is NOT automatically immune, but will be given a prize shortly. Redemption Island is officially OVER.
Thirdly...
There are TWO immunities up for grabs!
Oh, and... one more thing...
There's a second challenge, which I will get to first!
ROUND NINE REWARD: LOVE, AMANDA
I love you guys <33333
And since this is the Ultimate Game I'm gonna be generous. 252 pieces for all of you!
You know the drill. Beat my first time. Get a time under 30:33. I know my buddy list isn't on that one, but it is on this one:
That's not my best time. I'm sure you can see what that is. But I got this 24:39 time using my laptop trackpad while watching a Packer game. So if I can beat my first time by six minutes while I'm distracted and using something with decreased flexibility, I know this isn't impossible like in AS2. Don't even try. Sure, it's going to take some time, but this is UG. I love you guys, but I'm gonna make you work.
If you beat my FIRST time of 30:33 by an hour before TC votes are due, you'll get a triple vote. If nobody beats that time, the TOP TWO will get triple votes; if only one beats my time, the second-best time will get the prize still. No matter what, a couple of rewards are getting pumped in - this game needs a few of 'em.
Good luck. I love you guys <#
Now... onto immunity!
The goal of this challenge is to post once a minute for as long as possible; HOWEVER, there is a twist. You must also post your display icon once for every minute you have posted so far, meaning you'll have 2 avatars for 2 minutes, 17 avatars for 17 minutes, 38 avatars after 38 minutes, etc.
Here is an example:
10:01 post
10:02 post
10:03 post
10:04 post
.................
10:32 post
Et cetera.
You needn't center it, you call on if you do or not.
I WOULD like it if you did it in rows of 10, that would make it easier to tally. If you do it all vertically, I will NOT tally. That's WAY too difficult to score.
Like I said, you'll use your display icon, which is uploaded through my Photobucket account:
i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc516/AmandaKimmelXO/S11%20Ultimate%20Game/UG%20displays/?.png
With your name replacing the ?. Capitalized, yes. If it doesn't work, right-click on your display image on the main index.
You MAY both edit and delete your posts, but keep in mind that the "last edit by" timestamp is the one that will be counted. Meaning if you edit your 4:34 post at 4:35, it will count as 4:35 and thus be a mistake. If you miss a minute, you're done. If your displayed number of icons doesn't match, that's it for you. Make SURE you close your image tags, since that counts!
Each of you will also get a mulligan - this means that if you mess up once, you're fine. This counts for ANYTHING - if you miss a minute, just keep going as normal. However, if you miss 4:42 when you are supposed have 42 icons, post 43 icons at 4:43. The mulligan is only for ONE post, so if you have multiple posts with miscounted icons, you're done.
If you last at least two hours, then I will shave a minute off of your Love, Amanda time. If you last for at least four hours, I will shave THREE minutes off of that puzzle time. If you last for over eight hours and three minutes, the record set by Bryan Mariano in AS1, you will not only be MAILED a desert of your choice, you will also get SIX minutes off of your puzzle time. Of course, I expect y'all to have more of a life than that guy. But if you want... cookies, you'll be able to get them! O Angelia...
You have until 8 PM EDT Thursday - that's 46 hours - to start this challenge. I won't let it go after 11, so be finished by then. The two people who last the longest win immunity and won't be voted out this round. Someone else will, and they're going straight to jury, because Redemption is over.
If you have questions, let me know. Good luck everyone! Survivors ready? GO!
