The winner of Survivor: Isla Del Sol......
Dear finalists,
First of all, congratulations on making it to FTC. It means all three of you played a good game, because other jury members can say what they want, but they are not sitting here and you are, so one way or another you did better. Good job <3
I am not a bitter juror. Never was, never will be. My vote is going to be based on game and game only. However, there is one problem. I honestly have no idea how you played your games. I think I have a pretty good idea of Grace's game, but Trace? Zane? I'm so confused I can't even tell who voted for who anymore. I don't think there is a single member of the jury or finalist that was honest to me or didn't keep things from me. I don't blame you though, because I am aware part of that probably is my own fault. But it would make things a lot easier if you guys could explain to me what happened during the merge.
Jake - I know how this vote went. Grace, you didn't vote with the alliance we made, but I think I know why, because you had a plan with Ivan and it involved playing both sides, am I right? I just don't get why Ivan and you didn't vote together. Can you explain that to me? Also, Zane, you voted for Blaine. What was your plan with this? Who were you trusting? Did you have an endgame already?
Will - I think I know what happened. I just don't really know what your role was, Trace? This tribal didn't go your way, did it? So what went wrong?
Andrei - Explain please. I have no idea who voted who. Did one of you three vote Blaine? I don't think so but if so, please explain why. If I remember correctly, there were only two votes against Trace. Zane? Weren't you supposed to vote with me and Ivan that tribal? Or did you and did Ivan screw up? Either way, please let me know what you did and why. And Grace: why Andrei?
Minke - I have no idea what happened during this tribal. I was in the middle of nowhere and not able to be online during the time tribal was posted (I voted almost immediately) and results came up. I know I voted for you, Grace, because at that time, Tom told me that was the vote. Ivan obviously prevented that, but it didn't make any difference because Casey decided to flip again. Zane? Again I have no idea where you were standing. Did you vote Trace? If so, why? If not, what did you do and why?
After I was voted out, I obviously don't really know what was going on behind the scenes. Can all three of you explain to me what happened while you voted Casey and Ivan? Blain's exit is clear to me. Also, Trace and Grace: why did you take Zane and not Tom to FTC?
Trace, I know I haven't adressed you a lot in this speech, but that's because I don't really know what to ask you. As far as I know, you always voted with your alliance (tho I'm not sure who were in your alliance) for the person that went home, except for the time when Will went (and obviously when Blaine went because of the idol play). You haven't talked to me at all and I blame you for that, but I know I haven't talked to you either so part of it is my fault. Also, you haven't competed in the last few challenges but I heard you were on vacation? If that's true, I will not count that against you. However, you have to create a miracle if you want my vote, because I don't see how you played a better game than Grace or Zane.
Grace, I am really really sorry for fighting with you in the tribe chat. I was hurt and I am still hurt you guys voted me out when I was in Canada, but I think understand why you did it. I hope you can forgive me as well, because I really like you as a person and I let my game frustrations get in the way of that. I'm sorry <3
Zane, as I said before, I'm confused about where you stand. I'm confused about a lot of things but I think you can at least clearify this one :)
I loved playing with all of you, and I am happy I made merge with you.
Love,
Minke
Hello, Grace, Trace and Zane. Congratulations in making it in the Final Three in one of the most amazing seasons I've played in.
Let's cut to the chase, shall we?
.

TRACE.
You are probably not getting my vote. You failed my expectations. I was so excited to finally play with the 'Trace' that Kamchatka Molly is in love with and mentions from time to time. The Trace who is the Main ORG veteran who will probably slay this season. The Trace who everyone is excited to see play again. I don't know if life made it impossible for you to play the stellar game I was expecting you to play, but yeah Life should always be greater than ORGs.
In my opinion, you got there 80% because of Grace. Truth of the matter is, she always tries, and successfully save you every time. And I made it clear to everyone since the swap that Grace is in love with Trace so much and nobody listened. However, I give credit when credit is due, 20% is your effort. I was thrilled by your Roast videos and some moments when you will pop up at camp.
I mean no harm Sir, because I respect you as a person. But you lack in the social aspect of the game in this season as compared to the two you are seated with. We talked for quite a bit during our short lived alliance, but after that, no more. You even sarcastically remarked to me "whatever", when the lines were drawn in terms of alliance; as if there was a solid alliance this season. lol. I did not really see you stepping up your social game. I don't know if you connected with Minke or Thomas or as much as everyone else is connecting with everyone else. You constantly talked to Grace, as she squealed every bit of it, but it's given. Grace and you knew each other even before this game started.
The only way I can give you my vote is if you convince me that you really are the strategic mastermind of the opposing alliance - when you answer the other jury members' questions. As for me, I do not have any specific questions for you. It has been a pleasure to play with you, and congratulations. I will still be looking forward in reading your answers in my co-jury members' threads.

ZANE.
Zaney zaney zaney. Boy I did have fun playing with you.
You surprised me and you exceeded my expectations. You were always verbose and poignant when it comes to explaining things about the game, as seen in your final tribal council answers and even in past tribal councils. I commend you for that.
Sir, the night that I was voted out, I was not really looking towards you in saving me. I have already planted seeds in people's minds that you were the person who is in the middle of things. And really, you did a good job with that. I told them that you are dangerous because you can easily float and make your way in the finals like Sandra did, when the Boston Robs and the Russells were busy taking each other down. And nobody listened, you are there and we are here. Congratulations.
The day I was voted out, you sent me a message and I just replied "pfffft". Because at that point, I thought you gave me an explanation because you just wanted my jury vote. I thought of it as a superficial explanation. If you really do like me, you did not have to lie and backstab me. But this is a game and I adore you as a fellow competitor. Had I not known you before this (I hosted you in Mt. Sabyinyo - and I know that you are a genuine and nice person) I would probably be super pissed. We are not really constantly talking to each other, but I know you are a fierce competitor. And you did it. And now you have a shot in getting my vote.
I remember in one of the Roasts, someone castigated your ability to be in an alliance, and command an alliance. And it has been apparent because during the early days of the merge, noone really did things that you want. You suggested Thomas and voted for him but only one followed your lead. Another note is that you flop in the physical aspect of the game. Sir, you have not won any single immunity challenge. And that is kind of a big deal for me since I value the competitive aspects of the game.
What I want to hear from you is to defend yourself from these two accusations about you and your game play:
1. You can not create nor command an alliance.
2. You are a flop physically.
Tell me if you have actually successfully commanded an alliance - even in pre swap phase. Idk. But enlighten us why people saw you flopping in this area. You were not part of the big majority alliances in the merge.
Tell me if there are acceptable reasons why you flopped in challenges - real life? career? school? love life? Remembering that your co-castaways may have been going through the same stuffs like you were.
I do not want to hear from your strategic game because in my opinion, you excelled in that matter moreso than the two seated next to you. I get it already. You owned that department flawlessly. And I appreciate the fight that you are giving in this final tribal council. Good job, Zane.

GRACE.
I have so many things to say, where do I even begin.
I have played nine ORGs and only twice did I 'play emotionally'. First, was my first ever ORG in Rockstar ORG where I got fifth. Then this one. Isla. Fucking. Del. Sol. I have encountered emotional players along the way and sometimes I don't get it. But now I do.
Grace, we started in this season fresh from our blossoming friendship from Rome. We did click and like each other. And I was so excited to play with you again.
We would talk everyday. We would strategize everyday. We had the perfect strategy of infiltrating the two big alliances and sharing all the information we can get. Adding to the spice of that exciting strategy was to constantly let everyone know that we 'hate' each other while discreetly diverting the target away from both of us. And we have maneuvered and thrived in that strategy successfully. Jake. Will. Minke. Andrei. Casey... until you become f**king selfish.
Let me remind you that I have been in the back seat in our pact letting you drive except for the Will vote. It was supposed to be a constant flipping from one alliance to another. But you were selfish. It was like 75% of the deal was done in your terms. And I am still speechless at the fact that you were too self absorbed to not realize it.
I was not confident with Zane and not even Thomas. But I was so confident with you, because we have done it for 30 full earth days and we still adore each other. Until you became selfish.
I trusted you, and put our friendship on the line. I WANTED YOU TO WIN YOUR FIRST ORG WITH ME ON IT SUPPORTING YOU ALL THE WAY. But I don't think I can give you that support anymore. Up to this point, you blindsiding me still stings. People may not understand where I am coming from, but I am sure you would. You used me, when I have been genuine all along that I don't really care if you win over me as long as we keep our friendship and we get to the end together.
I treated you as a little sister and I protected you when you annoy the hell out of people. Your name always comes up and I will always find a way to erase it in people's minds and give premises why keeping you is a good idea.
Grace, you were the Dawn Meehan to my Brenda Lowe, and it fucking hurt so bad. Your explanation that you regret things do not really matter at all. I was waiting for you to say, "I did it because Trace is much more important to me than you", or "I was just using you, and this is all a game". But you fight emotions with emotions. Like you were appeasing me by telling me that it upsets you more than it upsets me. Or it was a last minute decision and I wanted to take it back. LIKE, SERIOUSLY? WERE YOU THE ONE WHO GOT SCREWED THERE? I feel like you've used our friendship for you to advance.
I have been trying my best to be mild at you as I type this. But at that time when you were explaining to me what you just did to me, I just wanted to block you so you will stop bugging me or possibly post something in the lines of FU Grace Courtney.
And pardon me for saying it now, but for the unnecessary blindside, and the lie, and the putting our friendship on the line, oh dear god, Grace Courtney. I am planning to leave the ORG Community and I hope you dwell in your victory and I hope it is all worth it. Try to be nicer in the future, try not to talk about yourself in tribe chat a lot, and try not to manipulate your friends in a way that it will hurt them.

Putting all personal grudges aside, I do think you played a stellar game.
I feel like I am still your big brother, and it makes me so emotional to get that instinct to protect you whenever I hear something bad about you or your game play after what you have done to me. To the jury who thinks Grace's game play is trashy, flippy or floppy, you are wrong. Grace, you have played an amazing social, strategic and physical game - the only thing that pains me is that your game involved using me and dumping me like a trash. Grace, if you do win, you deserve it. But I hope it is all worth it.
You have a great chance of earning my vote. My mind says it is the right thing to do, but my heart is pushing the idea out of me.
So my questions to you are:
1. Did you ever use me and use our friendship for you to get to where you are at?
2. If Zane wins the title of Survivor Isla Del Sol and you get second or third place, what do you think is/are the reasons why you lost to him?

Isla del Sol comes to a close
To the hosts, I had a blast! This has been one great season and I am lucky to be a part of it. Thank you.
So uh, my vote is locked, but I did want to take the time to congratulate you guys on making it here. It was a pretty crazy-ass game, and you all had to deal with Thomas for most of it, so kudos on that.
Even though I will not change my vote, I do want to give you all a chance to impress the other jurors with your social skills, so I have one request: tell me one thing you've learnt about each jury member that you didn't know going into the game.
Good luck with this FTC <3
First off, congratulations. Let me swallow my pride right there. You guys got me. I out strategized my own self out of this game. But that's enough about me because it's about you three tonight.
TRACE-
I just wanna get you out of the way. You're an amazing person, with a great personality. You told me you were playing to win a couple of times and when Koror got eliminated. And look at you. You're sitting right there. But honestly, I hate to use this against you, but I can't vote for someone who didn't compete in the last three immunity challenges I'm sorry.
ZANE-
Zane you sucked physical obviously, and you played an amazing strategic game. But as I'm hearing from everyone, you didn't really get to know a lot of people including me. You were very very quick to attack me without any explanation from me. That's the part I don't like. You along with a couple of people just loved to throw me under the bus. If it was apart of your strategy hey, more power to you. I guess you guys see someone weak who can't defend themself. Well I'll tell you something. Fuck off with that bullshit. And there's literally only one way you could get my vote tonight. I straight up told people, be honest with me if you're voting for me tell me and that'll get my vote. And both times you straight up told you were voting for me. Meanwhile, Trace says "Oh, I'm so nervous about the vote, It should be Zane tonight" and Grace says "You already know what I'm doing, Zane". It makes no sense to me. I'm going to the jury either way, why lie in that f4 situation. But Zane, you played well, I'm shocked to see you here but my hats off to you.
GRACE-
Some may say...my biggest mistake in this game was gunning for Trace and wasting my idol. But, I've come to the realization that my worst mistake was trusting a LITTLE GIRL. That's all you ever will be in my books. I promised you from the time we met that if I could I would be as honest to you as I could and that's all I ever was. If it wasn't for me you wouldn't be sitting there, me you and Ivan had a unbreakable 3 it seemed like. But boy I was wrong, and my stupid ass decided to save you. That night Minke got sent home, me Blaine and Zane were going to vote you off, we had numbers along with a few others. But then I made a plan to try and oust Trace, because I didn't want to backstab you, which cost me in the end. Here I am sitting with several knives in my back. I know you'll probably win but you are the most underserving winner in my books. All you did was run around and cry and hide like the little bitch you are. If logic was applied we can look to day one in real life Survivor, Susan Hawk. Zane is the snake who slithered his way here, Grace the rat who is just..here. While Trace just watches the snake devour the rat.
My one question to you guys is.
WHY DO YOU THINK THE TWO PEOPLE NEXT TO YOU SHOULD NOT WIN THE GAME. Be as brutal as you can because that's the only way my vote is changing from Zane.
With that being said, I really wish I was up there but hey I'm not. This was honestly a great first season even after all the personal attacks. But with that I say fuck off, and suck my ass. Because I'll be back one day :).
Hey guys! Before I start I wanna thank the hosts, you three, and the rest of the players for making this season as much fun as it was. From Day 1 it has been nonstop excitement and even though I feel like I've lost a few years of my life due to all the stress, this has literally been my favorite season to play in. Yay!
Grace, Trace, Zane. I'm so proud and happy that the three of you made it to the end. It bums me out that I wasn't able to join you especially since I feel like I had to haul ass to make it as far as I did, but nevertheless I'm glad that for once I won't have to drag anybody in my Jury speech! However, because of the fact that you're all baes, I can honestly say that I have not made up my mind on who to vote for. I had completely different experiences with all three of you, so earning my vote is doing to depend on how you answer my questions as well as the questions of my fellow Jury members.
GRACE
Let me start with Satan's spawn herself. Grace, we only started talking after we merged, but you surely secured yourself a spot in my "Can't Let Reach FTC" list after you obliterated everyone in that Winterbells challenge. But after talking for a while I immediately fell in love with you and you became one of my best allies in this game. It's rare for me to trust and become friends with someone so quickly, especially in a game like this, but it looks like you won me over.
Anyways, after Will's unexpected exit all I had left was the trifecta of me, you, and Trace. Everyone else gave me a reason not to trust them. But let me be real for a second. As much as I loved you, I knew I couldn't bring you to the end. In my mind I thought everyone loved you as well and even the Brantsteele IDS simulation I did predicted your win. It knew. But obviously things didn't pan out that way as you're sitting there and I'm sitting here.
So Grace, here are the questions I would like you to answer! Please be honest with your responses.
1. Was there a point during our time together where you were dishonest with me?
2. Was I correct in identifying you as my biggest threat in the game? Or do you think I should have focused my attention elsewhere?
3. Rank all 10 other members of the merged tribe by how much of a bond you had with them (1 being the person you bonded with the most) and tell me whether or not you had a hand in their elimination.
Thanks!
TRACE
Oh my God, it's Trace! When we got swapped to nuCobo I knew we would become great friends and allies. We, along with Will, dominated that tribe until the merge came and together we made it to the F5 where we then made that F2 deal. Things didn't go so well for me but I'm happy you managed to make it that far. But let's be honest here.
There was a point in this game when I got so frustrated with you. You could probably tell I was tiffed but I tried to keep calm in front of you. Let's just say that I gave quite the expletive-filled confessional and now one of the episode titles is directed at you. Oops. But yeah, if you don't know what I'm referring to, it was when we couldn't agree on who to keep between Blake and Casey. At that point I had just voted out one of my closest allies in Lucky and I kinda expected you to return the favor by booting Casey but you just wouldn't budge. It made me feel for just a moment that I should have stuck with my Cobo peeps instead of you guys. Things changed and I eventually just shrugged it off, but I just wanted to let you know about it before you read it when the confessionals came out.
I would like you to answer these questions.
1. Was that F2 deal we made sincere or did you have similar deals with other players?
2. How did you have to alter your strategy after Will got voted out?
3. How bad did you going on a cruise hurt your game, if at all, and do you think the Jury should overlook it when making their decision?
Thanks!
ZANE
And finally we have Zane! Since Day 1 we have had our ups and downs and I'm so glad that we were able to end our journey on an up. When we were together on Cobo, I considered you by closest ally and even when we got separated I tried to keep in contact with you. We shared notes and bitched about Tom, and I even let you know what was happening in my tribe. IDK what exactly was said to you that got you to vote against me at that first merged tribal but I was completely loyal to you up until then. Like Trace, I too had some foul words to say about you in a confessional afterwards.
But luckily we got passed that as well, until the Casey vote lol But the fact that we were constantly at odds showed me that you weren't willing to commit to just one person's plans. You told me that you would do what you had to to make final tribal, and you did just that. So bravo!
So here's what I want to ask you.
1. If things went your way each tribal, who would have your desired F3 consisted of?
2. What was your biggest obstacle in this game?
3. Rank your top 5 best allies in this game and if they're not sitting in the F3 with you, tell me why you couldn't/didn't take them there.
Thanks!
So, yeah. If I could split my vote into three pieces and give each of you a vote I would, but I unfortunately can only vote for one of you. So please show me that you played a game that's as crazy and exciting as this season was!
And if you all would be so nice to answer a few more bonus questions, that would be bonks. ♥
4. If you had to make the DVD cover for this season, which 5 other players would you pick to be on it (assuming that you won and had a guaranteed spot)?
5. Was I in any of your plans to make it to the end and were you secretly glad I got voted out when I did?
Thanks guys for making this a spectacular season! I'm really glad I got to meet all three of you I hope we can stay in contact after this is over. Fight hard and good luck in answering all our questions!
And if it feels like my enthusiasm dropped as you read this, it's probably cause it's taken me like 5 hours to write this omfg. But GL <3
~Blaine
Well, hey there Final 3.
First I just want to get all the pleasantries out of the way. I think you're all amazing. Grace, you're so fun and funny and I only wish we could have worked together longer in this game. Trace, our time on New-Cobo really bonded us strongly and I love you like a brother. Zane, even though we didn't talk much I still enjoyed when we did and I wish we could have maybe talked more because perhaps things could have worked out differently.
(sigh), Now onto the matter at hand. I have to vote for one of you to win this game, and I don't know who it should be. Because honestly, I like you all and I wouldn't have an issue voting for any of you. So I'll just start with my thoughts and questions for each of you and I'll go from there. But before we do that, just know I'm still a little lost on what happened the night I left, so tonight I hope to get some answers.
Zane
So Zane, I hope you realize that you are sitting next to the very two people who I started this game with and who I worked with all the way up until my demise. I had multiple conversations with them and I love them both to death. You, on the other hand I think we maybe had two or three conversations.
Now that's not to say it's all your fault for our lack of conversing, far from it, we both hold some blame there. But you're at the Final Tribal Council and I'm not so you're the one who has to answer for it. So I'll just get to the point, it's going to be an uphill battle for you to get my vote but it's not impossible. You're going to need to blow this out of the park.
Your answers need to be that ball right there.
So here are my questions/demands.
That's all I need from you Zane, good luck bud.
Trace.
Trace, I've just got to say you're awesome. I'm really glad to have been able to play this game with you. Through everything that happened, starting on Murokata where 2/5 of our tribe was inactive, then going to Cobo and losing everything. The journey we had was quite brutal but at least we were together to deal with the train-wrecks known as Murokata and Cobo.
Pictured, Trace and myself with our tribes in the background.
So regardless of what happens tonight, just know you're still going to be my friend and I think you're a great guy.
So now onto less pleasant things. Having been on the jury for the last 12 days has given me time to reflect, and with the help of some of the jurors I have discovered who voted for who the night I left. To my surprise, I've discovered that apparently you voted for Tom and not for Zane like we were planning. This partially led to my elimination in this game, and while that's not a huge factor for me tonight, it will factor into my decision. So from you I need to know,
Good luck my boi :3
Grace.
Soooooo Grace, the final third of the Murokata Three. You were the first person I talked to in this game and I think you were the last too. You were kind of like the little sister in the game to our alliance. You were funny, sarcastic, a little goofy. But I was glad to have you around. After the merge though I honestly didn't know where you stood. I knew you were close with Jake and Andrei, but I also felt like you wanted to be loyal to myself and Trace. After Jake's boot I was even more unsure because of how close the vote was. I didn't know whether it was you or Casey who didn't vote with us. Ultimately you were loyal to us and I feel bad to have doubted you at all. But recently there has been a development in the night I was voted out that you had a say in who was the target for the other alliance. That you were basically asked to pick between myself and Trace. I don't know if this is true or not but I intend to find out. So from you Grace, here's what I want.
1. Did what I just say actually happen? If it is, why did you tell them to target me over Trace?
2. What makes your game better than Trace's and Zane's?
3. Give me a rundown of what happened from your perspective the night I left AND what the aftermath of that vote was. (Same as what I asked Trace).
4. What was your game plan for after I left?
Good luck to you too Grace, love you girl <3
Welp, that's all I got. Good luck guys. I'll leave you with this.
Hey Guys!!! I first just want to start off by thanking you all for playing so well and so hard in this game. I'm not trying to kiss your ass, but this truly has been one of the most challenging and crazy games I have ever played in, and I am beyond excited to be at this point of the game speaking to you all tonight.
Alright, so as some of you may know I'm currently on a cruise ship (and therefore typing this on my phone) so bare with me as I try to make this short and sweet (with minimal typos lol). Okay. So, this game has really been an up and down roller coaster for me from day 1. I was stuck on two tribes that could just not pull out a win (and as a result have been to more tribal councils than any other player in this game).
I was forced to grab onto the reigns when Andrei and Minke and others started confusing my alliance into voting for other people so we wouldn't have the majority. I won immunity after a series of really bad challenge performances. And finally, I created a lot of bonds with you all that not only got me to this point, but hopefully that will also transcend this game and turn into friendships outside of the game.
I don't know what you all are thinking going into this tonight. Before I sat down to write this I had all these thoughts going through my head of: do I write out a play by play of my game? Do I give each jury member a shoutout and try to make it even more personalized? Should I attempt to mend any bonds in my speech that I may have broken in the last couple of tribals? And ultimately I decided that it was best to let my game speak for itself. I know that I played a strong social game, in which I was approachable, likable and charismatic enough to have multiple people trust me and want to work with me. I know that I played a strong strategic game, in which I maneuvered through many votes both in power and in minority.
I know that my physical game was not the best it could've been, but I feel like I shined when I needed to and pulled out the win when it was most important. Basically, what I'm hoping to hear from you guys is that you feel the same way. I hope that you have questions, comments, concerns about my game, and I would love to answer any and all that will help you get a better understanding of the moves I made and how I got myself here.
Nobody's perfect. I know that. But all I'm asking you to do is look at the high points of my game and compare them to the lows. I think you'll find that my highs are much more impressive and "million-dollar-worthy" than my lows. I would like to also congratulate Zane and Grace, two amazing players who deserve to be here as much as I do.
But where I disagree with many others is who deserves to win this game. If it were up to me, I'd analyze all the strongpoints of each, look at them against the weaknesses, and then come to the conclusion. Only a whole hearted look at each of our games will produce the proper winner. So, I am turning it over to you all, and I hope that you are as excited about this Final Tribal Council as I am, because I'm sure it'll be an amazing ending to an even more amazing game.
Over the past 39 (?) days, I feel like I've made a connection with all of you, and because of that, it's made it way harder for me to do some of the things I've done. No matter what happens, I just want all 7 of you to know that whatever personal conversations we had were genuine and that I wasn't just using your personal feelings to further myself in the game. I really enjoyed playing with everyone (believe it or not).
Game wise, I believe the game I played was one that generally doesn't result in making the finals and that is the flipper. The flipping strategy is generally a negative thing, however I feel if I didn't flip, I wouldn't be near the spot I am right now, and I would be a member of the jury. I used my social game to put myself in the position to be able to switch between two sides (which switched within themselves) and have to do minimal damage control. I always had options to go to, even when I was left in the dark about things/when I made mistakes. Obviously from when I beat the whole game combined in one challenge score, I proved to be a challenge competitor, and I was able to win the crucial immunities I needed to advance myself forward, which were the one after I initially chose a side at merge, and the last two to ensure I got my place in the end, which were the points I probably needed safety the most.
I know I have quite a lot of explaining to do, so I don't want you to hold back on anything. I'll do the best that I personally can to clear things up and I hope that the anger some of you have towards me will clear up too because I'm obviously able to explain myself more now, and hopefully prove I have done what it takes to be sole survivor.
Special guest appearance by my loud bag of Cheetos!

Grace, Trace, & Zane, now you will face the jury. Seven people the three of you had a hand in voting out. And they will decide who will win the virtual million dollar prize and the title of Sole Survivor.
You will each post a vote for me speech. Then the jury will make their own threads entitled "_____'s Jury Speech." You will answer their questions and then they will vote on who should win this game.
First vote...
Tom.
Zane. That's one vote Tom, one vote Zane.
Tom.
17th person voted out of Survivor: Isla Del Sol and the seventh and final member of our jury....
Tom. That's three and tonight, that's enough. Need to bring me your torch.
Well after 38 days of incredible gameplay, you three, Grace, Trace, and Zane, have managed to survive the craziness of Isla Del Sol and have gotten to the end. Now, the power shifts to the jury. Seven people, who you either directly or indirectly had a hand in voting out, will now decide who wins this season of the 703 Org. So get ready because after how this season has played out, I doubt they will make it easy for you. Head on back to camp, congratulations.
We will now bring out the members of the jury. Will, Andrei, Minke, Casey, Ivan & Blaine, voted out at the last tribal council.

Welcome to your eighth merged Tribal Council, Fuerza.
|
|
Before you vote, I have some questions to ask you.
Grace: You officially have a spot in the final 3! Did you think you would make it this far?
Tom: Last tribal, if it wasn't for your idol, you would be gone. Do you think tonight is your last night?
Zane: At this point, do you think you have a good shot at making final 3?
Trace: Are you nervous about what the jury may think because you didn't submit because you are on vacation?
You have 24 hours to send your vote to your personalized confessional chats, giving you until 1:35 AM EST tomorrow.
The results are in! Before we start, Trace was unable to submit due to not being able to get to a computer D:!!! So we will proceed with the other 3! Also note, Trace did tell us before the deadline was up, so he will still vote. NOW ON TO RESULTS!
Grace wins Final Immunity!!!!
Welcome to the Final Immunity Challenge! Grace, I will take immunity back because Immunity is officially back up for grabs for the last time.
You will endure the IDS trials, 5 trials that will push you to your limits and test how much you really want the title of Sole Survivor.
Trial 1: Flag Maker
You will make a flag for each of the original tribes. You will be judged on how they are overall on a scale of 1-10. First place gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2, 3rd gets 1, 4th gets 0.
Color Codes
Murokata=844184
Manco Capac=ED7527
Qala=C11E21
Cobo=E9CC0E
Trial 2: Canada 2048
You will play the Canada Edition Of 2048! First place gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2, 3rd gets 1, 4th gets 0.
Trial 3: Intro
You will create an intro for your season. Doing this will earn you an automatic 5 points. If you don't do an intro, you will get nothing.
Trial 4: Over Extended
The challenge is simple: You start by making a thread called " Your name's pole". Next, paste [[file:Tiki-Challenge.png|center]]. Once posted, your challenge starts here. After posting your tiki, you have to post the next segment, which is your pole (by typing in [[File:TikiPole.png|center]]. You will add a section of the pole every 15 minutes. You will do so by editing your thread. The player with the most poles added will win immunity. In case everyone's tikis "fall off", the player who posted the most poles would win immunity.
You need to post the next pole exactly fifteen minutes after posting your previous segment. If the 15-minute mark has lapsed and you haven't posted the next segment, your "tiki" falls off, eliminating yourself from the challenge. As for spectators who will try to sabotage the challenge, I also warn you, DO NOT INTERFERE.
Another thing. Since your posting time is recorded through your thread's history, so if you try to cheat, we will catch you. Cheating in this challenge will merit disqualification from the game. Also, we will deny you a seat in the jury.
Sample:
Start with making a thread:
First, you will post your tiki and your first pole.
Fifteen minutes later, you will add another pole.
After another fifteen minutes, add another pole, and so on...
Trial 5: Color
You will be playing the game Color! First place gets 3 points, 2nd gets 2, 3rd gets 1, 4th gets 0.
You have 48 hours to send in your scores, making the deadline 12:30 AM EST July 24th, 2015.
Good luck!
Congratulations Final Four! You have done what your fellow 16 tribe members could not. Today you will honor their memory, as you walk the Rites Of Passage.
You will go down the path to your final immunity challenge. Collect each torch as you go, and pause to reflect on that person and how they impacted your journey. Once you pass collect the final torch, you will set the torches ablaze, in a final act of honor.
One you have all posted your ROP, you will participate in the Final Immunity Challenge. Take this time to pay tribute, take in your surroundings, enjoy the moment. Head on out. You’ve got a busy day.
