Welcome, Vuku, to tribal council! This is a first for some of you!

andreaboehlke will be observing as she will join you when you head back to camp. Please, Andrea, do not post anything. You may only respond with liking or disliking posts.

You won't have any questions from me, but diva will be posting her questions for you all soon. So be prepared




Alright, let's get to the vote!

Make a new thread in your confessional titled "Voting History" or something similar. Use the parchment below to cast your vote for the player you wish to eliminate, upload to imgur (or something similar) and post the image in your thread.



You have 24 hrs from the time of this post to get in your votes. If you wish to change your vote, don't delete or edit the old one - simply make a new post. Be aware though, if all the votes have been cast, then we reserve the right to post results early!

IMPORTANT: Everyone must leave a boot list! If you don't know what a boot list is, it is a ranking of your tribe with the top of the list being the person you most want to vote out and the bottom being the least. If for some reason you miss the voting deadline, then we will use your boot list to cast your vote. Your boot lists are only valid for 3 rounds, so please update them regularly! If you don't vote within the deadline and don't have a boot list, then you will self-vote and receive a strike! Get 3 strikes and you will be med-evac'd from the game.

Results will be posted in this thread when ready! Good luck!

Hello everyone and welcome to Tribal Council

Some of you know what to expect here tonight but most of you do not so let me explain
I will be asking you questions the people want to hear
there is nowhere to hide
spill the tea

Let's get right to the questions.


Questions for everyone to answer:

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

How safe do you feel in this game?

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

[grantmattos]

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

We've all gotten along pretty well, for the most part, everyone has settled down well and I feel like we're getting our tribe synergy back. It's just a shame it has to end so soon

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

There honestly wasn't much of a change, in fact, it was practically seamless. Trible lines weren't really there and we've all managed to bond rather well.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

Well, some people may choose to stand out, others may just act natural, but I think the real way to stand out is what you bring to the table challenge wise. A winning smile only can get you so far

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

No comment, sorry

How safe do you feel in this game?

Safety is an illusion at tribals before the merge, and even then it's only guaranteed with an immunity necklace around your neck. So the only way you feel safe is just in your own head because the game itself cant give you that assurance.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

Obvious tribe lines or not, sometimes you have to look at what is best for the tribe as a whole. If you can take a piece out of the whole and it still works, then you didn't need that piece to start with. So I think the vote is will be based on overall tribe dynamics. We can't have something going wrong for us later down the line

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

Once Silas, Brenda, and Jaime came over to the camp and we got to know more about them, it honestly seemed like another day at Vuku. They didn't come in to stir anything and we weren't shutting them out, I feel like the past couple days have been great with tribe dynamics.

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

At the end of the day, this is Vuku. And we gained 3 more Vuku members along the way. I really didn't find any adjusting needing to take place because we're one tribe trying to do one thing, and that's win challenges to prevent us from coming here.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

I think that is what makes this game so entertaining and so fun is that we all do have different personalities. And with different personalities bring different perspectives, which is really important. I think we were able to listen to one another pretty well to see all those perspectives.

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

Right now, I'm not sure we have one and I'm not saying that as a cop out. On the challenge, we each took tasks that we believed suited our abilities and ran with it. And when discussing tonight's vote, it wasn't one person saying this name or that name.

How safe do you feel in this game?

The only time you should feel safe is when you're not here. When you're here and your torch is burning behind you, of course there's vulnerability. I think tonight's vote is straightforward but I'd be lying if I said I felt 100% safe ever.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

At the end of the day, I don't want to come back to tribal, no offense diva you look wonderful. So tonight's vote is based on what gives us the best chance of coming back here as little as possible.

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

As far as I am concerned, everyone on new Vuku, is getting along very well.

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

I think that we all adjusted well. It's a new tribe, I think that we all work good together, helping to create tribe culture is very exciting.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

I don't think anyone wants to come on too strong, but I feel comfortable sharing my opinions.

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

I don't think we have a leader, we all work well as individuals.

How safe do you feel in this game?

You can never feel safe in this game. Going to tribal sucks, and you never know how people truly feel about you. Relationships can change daily, too.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

I'm going to vote with, what I've been told, is the majority.

[Jaime Dugan]

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

Yeah. It was nice to see some new faces and I'd say that we've gotten along pretty well. We all seem active and committed to this tribe and it's very sad that we have to come to Tribal Council again.

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

Well, at first it was a little intimidating coming in with a 4-3 numbers disparage between old tribes. But old I think that we are actually all nu-Vuku now and so that made the transition much easier.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

I think we have very different personalities and that makes us a unique tribe and I feel like everyone genuinely wants to get to know each other and push ahead as a tribe.

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

Not at all. But I also feel like it's too earlier to actually define someone as a leader. We all pulled our weight at the challenge and I think that means we are all doing our best for this tribe.

How safe do you feel in this game?

You can never feel safe in this game. There are many different aspects to consider and everyone has their plans. You can only hope that people do what they told you the'd do because in the end it's ultimately a numbers game.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

This is the 4th straight Tribal Council I've attended and I definitely wish that the trend would stop and there's no way it's going to if we don't win challenges so I will be basing my vote on how to keep Vuku as strong as posible.

[Silas]

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?
I didn't know 2 days are equal to a week for you, but note taken. Given that it's the days around my birthday, I feel even more special. Joke aside, I am really happy with the group I ended up with, it seems to be pretty talkative and active one.

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?
Tbh, I feel like having a swap is like restarting the game in a way. I tried to be social with everyone and pull my weight on the challenge.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?
I've been meeting you for, what now, a week? It has definitely helped with getting along with big personalities. Other than that, we do get along pretty well I think, I am enjoying my conversations with people and our tribe chemistry.

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?
I wouldn't say we have one, even more this is our first round together as a tribe. We basically communicated with each other how to do the challenge and coordinate accordingly.

How safe do you feel in this game?
It feels like forever I've been coming to TC, and I've never felt safe. Hopefully we get a day off in the next few rounds, cuz I need to slow.down.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?
Mainly on what I believe will make us stronger and where hopefully the majority is going with this vote.

New week, a new tribe. How is everyone getting along?

everyone on OG Vuku welcomed the new tribe members with open arms, chatted with us, and we all communicated well during the challenge so i like to believe we are doing good so far

How do you adjust to the new social dynamics presented by the tribe swap?

i think you just have to go in with a positive, open mind, be willing to socialize and pull your weight around camp. and then hope that everyone sees value in that.

How do you assert yourself in a tribe with so many personalities?

this is so cliche, but i think there’s no other way to be but yourself. i dont necessarily feel like anyone has to *assert* themselves, per say because everyone has their own role to play on this tribe and in this game, in general. this kinda stuff should just come naturally.

Who do you consider the leader of your tribe?

i dont know if we have one. no one’s bossing anyone around, and i think that’s how it probably should be.

How safe do you feel in this game?

not at all, especially considering i’m on a perceived minority with 4 VUKU and 3 R. so, yeah, you can never feel safe unless you have immunity and i think every single one of us on this tribe is vulnerable right now.

What will you be basing your vote on tonight?

there’s been a lot of chat about challenge performance and abilities so i guess that is what we go based on

[Justinmon]

I have the votes.

If anybody has a hidden immunity idol and would like to play it, now would be the time to do so...
