Greetings Survivors, and happy Saturday. I am pleased to announce we’re changing things up. DROP YOUR BUFFS. As you can see in the video above, this afternoon Sandra and I drew names for a new Fuego, and a new Hielo, making two tribes of 7 each, some originals, some making the switch. If this were on the island, you would have drawn either an orange or a blue buf at random.

As of the posting of Week 10: Immunity Challenge on Wednesday night, there was a secret message in clear view at the bottom of the Rankings page. At 2:43pm on Friday afternoon, Graham found this message, contacted your host, and was told to await the creation of 2 new tribes. It should be noted that another castaway found the exact same message and contacted your host at 2:45pm before the message was removed. This person was very unlucky, and was NOT given the advantage, nor told anything about it.

Graham’s advantage is that he would sit out the draw and be able to choose his new tribe. But he was given only the length of a short phone call, and was not permitted to speak with his tribe beforehand. After some deliberation, he made his choice.

So without further ado, Let me introduce the NEW FUEGO!

              

Leaving those that drew the “blue buffs” as the NEW HIELO!

            

So after some brief introductions, Alex, Stef and Tyler followed 5 Fuegos back to Fuego beach, while Chelsea headed back to the tribe that had voted her out in Week 7, along with newcomers Claudia and Jordan, who hoped to make the most of this exciting new twist!

The Week 11 Immunity Question will be posted between MONDAY morning at 12:01am and Wednesday night at 11:59pm. I’ll be sending along an email with the contact information of your new tribe mates!

Continue on to the Immunity Challenge.
