Episode 1

As the castaways were all flown to the island in helicopters, they begin to become acquainted, before being divided into their 4 tribes and sent on their way to camp.

First, the

Twistos

tribe proves to be a very interesting one. Drench, a self-proclaimed wilderness expert, single-handedly crafts fire within the first hour of arriving at camp. However, as Drench continues to be a force of strong work ethic within the tribe, Xofelf falls on the other end of the spectrum, slightly irritating Crazy and Hanasawa with her immense desire to carry out every action as an interpretive dance. She hails from a dancing education and career, after all, and it's easy to see that she's experienced; these skills just may not translate too well into the harsh language of Survivor. While Snakes becomes a starstruck fan of the fantastic Drench, Nyalite and Xalxe begin to communicate strategically, believing themselves to be the only players on the tribe truly playing the game so far. However, this causes them to be ostracized from the rest of the group due to their lack of socialization, albeit unintentionally on the part of the tribe.

In the

Fevawashadoo

tribe, strategy is becoming much more of a common taste on the tongue. PrivateI and Lord Mhork immediately recognize each other to be huge fans of the game, and despite confessionals showing them realizing the eventual threat of the other, they decide to form a Final Two pact. This is strengthened by Mhork getting close to Mist and PrivateI becoming close to Klick; an effective 4-person alliance is formed, with both Klick and Mist feeling like they had a part in the initiation. Not everyone in the tribe is playing so hard though, as Orcinus remains exhausted under an underwhelming shelter he built throughout the duration of 2 days, and Nich solely contributes with his catching of fish. Near the end of the second day, Klick brings up the idea of voting out Orcinus to PrivateI and Mhork due to his laziness, which pleases the two-man group as they realize they don't need to be calling all the shots.

The next tribe of

Takawuki

begins to reveal some behind the scenes drama. Early on, the tribe dynamics seem stagnant, as clearly defined pairs develop of Cybele and DeasVail, kdowns and Kloud, and gamsimbre and JDGA. Gamsimbre quickly takes on a role as leader of the tribe, but Candillan is hasty to realize his own weak position. As gamsimbre demonstrates his knowledge of the game by immediately forming a dominant alliance consisting of himself, JDGA, Cybele, and DeasVail, Candillan picks up the stragglers of kdowns and Kloud. Gamsimbre attempts to take a Boston Rob-esque approach by disallowing his alliance members from communicating with those on the outs, but a lack of trust between the alliance members so early on begins to anger Cybele.

The final tribe of

Pwyupwyu

is the most hectic right from the start. Any attempts to build a decent shelter or acquire food are thrown right out the window as Cephrir, an experienced yoga instructor, forces all his tribemates to partake in a multi-hour long session of working out before any work around camp may be done. Swyellowtail is the first to point out the absurdity of these commands, and Cephrir, dejected, weeps under the shelter indefinitely while Ani consoles him. Despite Swyellowtail's desperate attempts to bring any sense of unity or order to the tribe, Axxle and TheBadOne want nothing but to scheme with each other incessantly regarding strategy and future backstabs of their tribemates; this would be fine if there was even a tribe to backstab! The worst behavior comes from Shiidaji, however, as during the first night, he sneaks out of his makeshift bed in the sand to steal Cephrir's yoga mats and burn them. This only drives Cephrir into a further depression, as his one and only passion is now scorched.

{. . .}

For the first tribal immunity challenge, all players stand in a circle around a swinging horizontal bar. The bar spins around in a circle as all players attempt to balance on a beam over the water, and a slight misstep will send anyone knocked into the water by the bar. The first two tribes to have all their players fall in the water are sent to Tribal Council, while the last tribe with players remaining wins fire in the form of flint.

Challenge Results:

Spoiler: Takawuki

The members of Takawuki all are first to perish after 38 minutes in the challenge, and will be attending Tribal Council.

Spoiler: Pwyupwyu

The few focused players in the tribe are able to keep the group alive for 74 minutes.

Spoiler: Fevawashadoo

Despite almost the whole tribe going out in the first half hour, Klick is the sole survivor at the end, winning flint for his tribe!

Spoiler: Twistos

All members of Twistos fall into the water after 43 minutes, forcing them to take the second spot at Tribal Council.

Who will be voted out? Tribal Council will be posted after I take a shower!

[swyellowtail]

Hah, the reference to MBS it mentioned here. Clever.

Also, I'd like to at least point out that Shii is a she, not a he. (It's... kinda in the name, y'know?)

[KingdomAces]

No, Shii is a he. We've been over this.

Tribal Council 1

At

Takawuki's

first Tribal Council of the season, Gamsimbre expected there to be nothing shy of a unanimous vote on Candillan. After all, he had done everything right: forming a dominant alliance early on, having one-on-one talks with everyone on the tribe, and being a well-rounded leader. However, it was apparent to kdowns and Candillan that gams' paranoia was starting to get the best of him. Candillan found out from Cybele that DeasVail and Kloud aren't fond of him in the slightest, but they'd vote for someone else if no one else was voting for Candillan. (This is assumed, but not confirmed, due to DV and Kloud's lack of any screentime or confessionals.) Candillan then takes advantage of this knowledge along with Gamsimbre's paranoia to convince Gams that kdowns wants to vote him out at Tribal Council. Gamsimbre then with little time left until TC rallies up the whole tribe, excluding kdowns, to announce the new plan of voting out kdowns that night. Cybele was hesitant to follow through with this plan due to his friendship with kdowns, DeasVail, and Kloud, and a tough decision was now in his hands.

Spoiler: First vote

Spoiler: Second vote

Spoiler: Third vote

Spoiler: Fourth vote

Spoiler: Fifth vote

Spoiler: Sixth vote

And with 4 votes, that's enough. Gamsimbre is the first player voted out of Survivor: The Clubhouse.

Spoiler: Seventh vote
