I'm falling asleep, so I won't be here for the TC results to be posted. In case I leave, I just wanted to say a thank you in advance to Dylan and the judges for an amazing season, and I'll post some more thoughts tomorrow.
Welcome Tribe Strujala to the 18th Tribal Council of the season and your sixth post-merge. One of you will be heading over to Ponderosa right now where you will spend the rest of the journey relaxing as a member of this season's Jury.
Ivory. has just played his Hidden Immunity Idol so all votes (if any) against him will not count at this Tribal Council.
Golden & Element, you both received 2 of the 4 (valid) votes cast this Tribal Council which means we have our second tie of the the Merge tonight. As you both should know by now, you two will have to duel off where one of you will be eliminated in 5th place while the other will advance officially to the Top 4. My only problem with a tie during the Top 5 is that the final round of this game is extensive. If you've browsed the last two seasons, you'll know it will involve an album review. You'll have to listen to the album and then review it as professional as you can. With that in mind, I'm going to propose two duel options for you both of you to agree on one of them.
Option #1:
We move straight to Round 17: The Music Critique. You both complete the round well aware that all your hard work could be for absolutely nothing if you lose the duel. This option would not delay the game at all, but writing a music review is much more extensive than for example, dwuw & Ares' duel, so keep that in mind. If you guys are fine with that, then so be it.
Option #2:
Round 17 is delayed as the two of you complete a mash-up round that would consist of a pre-merge round, another emoji to define, and a picture to define from this last round. You guys would only get a day to do this and the judges would send their rates immediately as it would literally only be 6 songs to judge.
The real question is would you guys rather do a small round so that your time isn't potentially wasted or would you rather do a longer round that allows you to show off more creativity than a song selection round does? Tell me how you two feel about this when you come online.
Thanks and congratulations to T-Swizz, Guero, & Ivory. for guaranteeing spots in the Semi-Final!
Congratulations T-Swizz on your first Individual Immunity of the season! You maintained the lead from start to finish so this a very deserved win for you. You are immune from elimination this Tribal Council and have guaranteed a placement in the Top 4 as a result.
