cs2karen: hello everyone
SurvivorGracie: Hi
LucasHorowitz: hola senorita, come estas?
Love Struck Muse: Hey :-)
Kdadams76: hi
cs2karen: *TRIBAL COUNCIL BEGINS NOW*
cs2karen: Taylor could not be here tonight. He did not answer a question, but he has left his vote with me in advance.
cs2karen: Jenne could not be here tonight but has left her answer and vote with me in advance.
cs2karen: ok...
cs2karen: And here enters our jury…<br>cs2karen: Kelley, Steve, and Annette quietly walk in and take their seats on the jury area.
cs2karen: Welcome Tribe Orleans to tribal council #13.
cs2karen: Only 6 of you left and soon to be down to 5. Unfortunately one of you will be leaving the game tonight and joining the jury.
cs2karen: As always, I will begin by asking you each a question. When you are finished with your response, please say "done" so I know you are finished.
cs2karen: Gracie...
cs2karen: What were your thoughts about the last immunity challenge? Do you think Ellie deserved to win immunity?
SurvivorGracie: *grumble* who WERE those people?
SurvivorGracie: Ellie deserved that win more than anything.
SurvivorGracie: lol I was begging her to mercy me out.
SurvivorGracie: She showed us all up and definitely deserved the win and I was very happy for her.
SurvivorGracie: done.
cs2karen: thanks gracie
cs2karen: Kyle...
cs2karen: After tonight, your tribe will be down to the final 5 of the game. What must everyone here, including yourself if you were to escape tonight's vote, keep in mind as you all strive to become the Sole Survivor?
Kdadams76: Ally yourself with the right people
Kdadams76: only the final 2 will know if they've done that
Kdadams76: done
cs2karen: thanks kyle
cs2karen: Lucas...
cs2karen: Twelve have left before you. You still have five more people to beat out to become the sole survivor. Is there anything you WON'T do to win? Do you have it set up so that you can go the distance?
LucasHorowitz: The nature of the game is that even if you dominate and play a flawless game in all aspects the jury can still say "nothing doing, smart guy". (more)
LucasHorowitz: This game is won through how you impact people be it in a positive or negative way and you have to keep that in mind at all times. (more)
LucasHorowitz: It's all well and good to be ruthless but winning at all costs very rarely wins you the final vote. (more)
LucasHorowitz: It's hard because, obviously, you have to go to the limit but present it in such a way that people won't resent you in then end. (more)
LucasHorowitz: Having said that I really want to win and I will try my hardest at all times.
LucasHorowitz: (done)
cs2karen: thanks lucas
cs2karen: Jenne...
cs2karen: same question…Twelve have left before you. You still have five more people to beat out to become the sole survivor. Is there anything you WON'T do to win? Do you have it set up so that you can go the distance?
cs2karen: Her answer...
cs2karen: I think this question comes at a very poignent point in the game for me. I have love for every person I came to TC with today. Frankly these are the five people I could never bare to vote off.
cs2karen: And yet here I am today, prepared to vote one of them off. Its an impossible choice at this point and yet I have to make it. I have played this game up until this point as logically and removed as possible.
cs2karen: I tried to make decisions based on strategy over emotional attachment but I can no longer do that. I can not separate my emotions from those that are left. So there is a LOT I would not do to win this game.
cs2karen: If I win, I want it to be admirably, so i can be proud of what i did, rather than ashamed. I never wanted to hurt anyone playing this game and i never wanted to be the person that everyone hates.
cs2karen: I wanted everyone to be happy and have fun. But I know I have hurt some people at this point and am ashamed of that. Whoever wins at this point I will be happy for and proud to have played by their side.
cs2karen: If it is me, I hope the others can feel the same way. I care about these people and am not willing to hurt them in order to win. I would rather be voted off now then to hurt them.
cs2karen: With that said, to play this game you have to vote people off and it is my hope people won't take it personally when that happens because it is the fundamental backbone of this game, a game we all signed up for.
cs2karen: As for setting myself up to go the distance...Honestly, I don't think its a sure thing I will make it to the end. I think my chances are the same as each individual left.
cs2karen: I have played this game to get myself there and think i have done a good job of it, but in reality my fate lies in other peoples' hands, not my own.
cs2karen: This is a great group of people who I respect and admire. The only thing I am sure of is that I will be happy with the the winner of this game.
cs2karen: done
cs2karen: thanks jenne
cs2karen: Ellie...
cs2karen: Congratulations on winning immunity. Do you feel like you needed immunity tonight to stay in the game? Why or why not?
Love Struck Muse: Hm, that's actually an interesting question. On one hand, I realize I was on the outside of this big alliance and quite possibly could have been voted out. However, I have been told by a few people that had I not won I still would
Love Struck Muse: have been ok but it's always great to have the security knowing I can't go and will make the final 5.
Love Struck Muse: done
cs2karen: thanks ellie
cs2karen: Ellie…As the immunity winner, you also have the option of either keeping immunity for yourself or giving it away to someone else on your tribe. Please state now whether you are keeping it or giving it to someone.
Love Struck Muse: I'm definitely keeping it.
cs2karen: OK…Ellie has immunity, so you cannot vote for her. Everyone else is vulnerable.
cs2karen: With that said, it's time to vote!
cs2karen: When I call your name, please privately IM me with your vote AND reason.
cs2karen: Gracie
cs2karen: Lucas
cs2karen: Kyle
cs2karen: Ellie
cs2karen: I'll go tally the votes…<br>cs2karen: Once the votes are read, the decision is final and the person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes…<br>cs2karen: First vote...
cs2karen: KYLE
cs2karen: Second vote...
cs2karen: LUCAS
cs2karen: Third vote...
cs2karen: LUCAS
cs2karen: Fourth vote...
cs2karen: KYLE
cs2karen: Fifth vote...
cs2karen: KYLE
cs2karen: Sixth vote...

cs2karen: KYLE, the tribe has spoken. *snuffs torch*
