I'm guessing this next moment is not one anyone might have expected in the top 10, but I think it belongs here. Jacob Smith ( BOBROCKS333) made a feat that no other castaway has by winning 5 individual immunities in a row! However, his alliance with Jodi ( JodiRollins), Ranz ( thetrackerjackers), and Chris ( blueu22) would not be enough if he had lost immunity because he was the fourth member of the alliance. The Athena Four was formed when Jacob S. managed to return from the Hades tribe and he replaced Cedric ( teamjacz) as a tribe member and an alliance member.
JACOB S. VOTED OUT #1:
Andrew ( sosyomomma):
"*Writes down Jacob S*
You helped me get out the potentiol idol but i have no reason for you to stay now."
Jacob S. ( BOBROCKS333):
"*Writes down Tristan*
There aren't many options and I think you're less useful for me to keep around :/"
Logan (Me):
"But before we get to the challenge, we have some business to attend to."
Logan (Me):
"Everyone welcome back Jacob C, Nash, Cory, and Jacob S."
Logan (Me):
"The first four people voted out are coming back as the Hades tribe.
The twist is called the Underworld (basically Outcasts from PI). If they win the challenge today, they get to vote two people back in, but if they lose they only vote one person back in. The twist will not be used for anyone else in the game."
The rest of you, go ahead and drop your buffs. We're switching tribes!"
The tribes then switched and we were left again with four tribes of four, but one of them was the Hades tribe. The Hades tribe had a shot to re-enter the game if they won the challenge.
Logan (Me):
"Athena, Zeus, you will each vote out a member tonight and at tomorrow's challenge will receive one of the voted back in Hades members. You've got the night to figure it out.
The camps are the same, so Athena and Zeus are at one camp and Aphrodite and Hades (which replaced Ares) is at another camp.
Grab your stuff and head out."
HADES TRIBAL COUNCIL:
Jacob C. & Jacob S. made a deal with each other to control the votes, and they did.
Jacob C. ( minidude13):
"*Writes down Jacob S*
*Writes down Nash*
inb4 the other two throw their second vote at him too XD"
Jacob S. ( BOBROCKS333):
"*Writes down Jacob C*
You helped us win the challenge, you're a deserving player, and I hope we both make it back in.
*Writes down Nash*
You're the least deserving to come back in, but that's why I'm voting for you. I'm hoping if I throw a vote your way then this will fall in my favor. This could backfire, but no risk no reward."
Both of them replaced the two people voted out, Stephen ( SimvivoRWay) from Aphrodite, and Cedric ( teamjacz) from Athena.
The Athena Four began early, but so did the decision which led to Jacob S.'s demise.
Ranz (#thetrackerjackers):
"Yes we finally won an immunity challenge. That means I'm safe and even safer than ever before. I'm still kinda paranoid about the new comer Jacob S. I don't know what his head is at. I talked to Chris and Jodi about making "fake deals" with him, but in reality we already planned for three of us to stick together and vote the "new comer" out of the game. I'm also going to try to make fake deals with Jacob and make sure he doesn't find out that we are voting him out. If he does find out, then I'm screwed I think. I have to play it smart. I don't want to boss Chris and Jodi, they're just my "puppet" I got their strings tied tightly in my arms."
And from there, the merge happened and Jacob C. ( minidude13) was voted out before then, but once those four switched Athena members came together, they ran the game.
In a record amount of times, Jacob S has held individual immunity a total of FIVE times in this game, and all in a row. That is quite the effort. The rest of you, all make valiant efforts as well, but tonight one of you will be voted out and become the sixth jury member.
Grab your stuff and head out."
Jacob was a clear threat at this point, and after Jacob K. ( Kpnna) was voted out...
Logan (Me):
"Jacob K, the tribe has spoken.
*Snuffs torch*
The decision is final, it's time for you to go."
It left only the alliance of four. Unfortunately for Jacob S, he was not only the original fourth in the alliance, but he was also arguably the BIGGEST threat of the game.
PRE-FINAL IMMUNITY:
Chris (#blueu22):
"I cannot believe I made it to the final 4. Well, I actually can. I knew I had it in me, I was planning and strategizing the entire game, I just cannot believe everything worked out for me. This end game is going to be crucial and if the wrong decisions are made, it could cost me the game. I don't think I have a good shot as I don't think anyone on the jury really respects me, so I just need to hope there isn't TOO much bitterness if I make it. The plan right now is for ranz and myself to sit in the end together. If it's a final 3, it's going to be extremely difficult for either of us to win. If bobrocks wins immunity at final 4, Jodi has to go. Jodi has a good chance of winning as she hasn't done anything bad to anyone. If it IS indeed a final 2, bobrocks cannot win final immunity. Although he will take me to the end, I feel better sitting in the end next to Ranz. If bobrocks doesnt win immunity at final 4 and jodi does, bobrocks is going. If neither of them win, I still want Jodi to go as I don't think we can beat her. And then hopefully bobrocks wont win final 3 immunity, and he can go. If it's a final 4, I'm going to have an uphill battle winning."
Jodi (#JodiRollins):
"right now Im praying to god' Jacob loses because we're voting him out if he loses this"
Logan (Me):
"The challenge is called: “The Gods Test”.
For today’s challenge -
There are two parts. Three of you will move onto the second part and one of you will be eliminated in the first part.
I’ll explain the second part once we get to it, but for now here’s the first part.
For the first part -
You’ll have to race through a series of obstacles. There are three mini-obstacles within the course.
Posts:
*Runs to course*
*Walks through rope course*
*Reaches first obstacle*
You’ll then mail me for your first obstacle. Once you finish the obstacle, send me the pictures/answers and move onto the next series of posts.
*Runs to ladder*
*Runs up ladder*
*Reaches second obstacle*
You’ll then mail me for your second obstacle. Once you finish the obstacle, send me the pictures/answers and move onto the next series of posts.
*Runs down ladder*
*Runs to wheel*
*Turns wheel rapidly*
*Goes through wheel*
*Reaches third obstacle*
You’ll then mail me for your final obstacle. Once you finish the obstacle, send me the pictures/answers and move onto the next series of posts.
*Runs to the finish line*
*Takes machete*
*Hits plate to move on*
The first three people to finish move on to part two while the person in last place is out of the challenge.
I’ll give you a few minutes to strategize and then we’ll get started."
It was a true God's test, but unfortunately....Jacob could not beat Jodi.
Logan (Me):
"For part two -
You’ll run through a series of obstacles until you reach a station. Sometimes you’ll have a choice in the road, way #1 or way #2, one is right, and one is wrong. There are a total of three stations and each one has a pre-season quotation from one of the previously voted out castaways. Guess who said the quotation correctly and you can continue to the next obstacle.
Posts:
*Runs to fence*
*Walks through fence*
EITHER: *Moves through door #1* or *Moves through door #2*
If you go through the correct door, you’ll reach your first station. Once you guess the right person, you’ll continue with your posts.
*Runs through fence*
EITHER: *Goes through curvy fence* or *Goes through windy fence*
If you go through the correct way, you’ll reach your second station. Once you guess the right person, you’ll continue with your posts.
*Runs through fence*
*Climbs ladder*
*Walks to station*
Here you’ll reach your third station. Once you guess the right person, you’ll continue with your posts.
*Climbs down ladder*
EITHER *Goes through door #1* or *Goes through door #2*
If you go through the correct door, you can move onto your next set of posts.
*Runs to finish line*
*Takes machete*
*Smashes plate with machete*
The first person to successfully complete the course wins individual immunity and is GUARANTEED a spot in the Final Tribal Council while for the rest of you, one of you will be voted out tonight and become the seventh and final jury member.
I’ll give you a few minutes to strategize and then we’ll get started."
And it WAS a close battle for a while, and it seemed like Chris would beat BOTH Jodi and Jacob, but Jodi pulled through, and Jacob lost the FINAL challenge.
Congratulations Jodi, you have a spot in the FINAL Tribal Council. Jacob S, for the first time in over 15 days, you have not held the necklace. The three of you, one of you will be the LAST person voted out of this game and just miss the Final Tribal Council by ONE day. You have the night to figure out who it is.
Grab your stuff and head out."
PRE-TRIBAL COUNCIL:
Chris (#blueu22):
"Well, Jodi won immunity, which means Jacob has to go. I'm not supposed to care, I haven't cared about voting out anyone up until now. I feel so bad though because he really deserves to be in the end. He's a big threat though which is why he has to go. Unless something changes, which I doubt it will, Jacob will be going home."
Jodi (#JodiRollins):
"I'm voting for Jacob. It's for the best. He hasn't done anything to piss any of the jury off. Taking Chris and Ranz just seems right to me, and I feel as though I can win against those 2.
Chris- He's pissed every member of the jury to their breaking point. His entire strategy was piss people off, and hope to god he won.
Ranz- Chris's goat. While people may think I was Chris's goat. I really wasn't. If it was a F2, of course I would get rid of Chris, he doesn't deserve it AT ALL.

WRITE ME THE CHEQUE NOW LOGAN"
Jacob S. (#BOBROCKS333):
"So close :((((( Karma came back and got me on this one, not knowing those quotes shows how shitty of a social game I played. I have no clue how anyone premerge/early jury thought or spoke or typed or anything. To come this far is truly an accomplishment for me, and I'm proud of myself for fighting until the bitter end. These people are stupid to think that I'm a bigger threat to take out than Chris. I mean I have no clue what the jury is thinking, but it's dumb to go into it with the expectation of them being bitter. I've tried convincing Ranz, I've tried convincing Jodi, it's all I can do at this point. One challenge away from finals, and I couldn't pull it out. Do I regret not making a move at f6 now? No not really, I'm glad I was loyal because I'm sure I still would've been seen as a threat at this point :/ I stuck to my word, and I'm proud of that. I'm proud of everything. I'm just really proud of this game, and I thought it was a chance for me to show the people that judge me before getting to know me that I can do it :/ Sorry to any fans sitting on the couches at home that I may have had, there probably aren't many of you, but ILY ALL. 5 immunity wins, 4th place...that's a pretty decent record. SEE YA ALL IN ALL STARS XOXOXOXO"
THE VOTE:
Chris ( blueu22):
"*Writes down Jacob S*
Jacob I am so so so sorry to do this to you. You're a huge threat at this point and I cannot vote out Ranz at this point. I'm sorry :/"
Ranz ( thetrackerjackers):
"*Writes Jacob S's name down*
I'm so sorry! You're a Jury Threat! You've won soo many challenges! I'm happy to work with u! You were a loyal alliance member and I'm so sad to see you not make it to the f3! :/"
Jodi ( JodiRollins):
"*Writes down Jacob S*
Jacob, 4th Voted out, and now 4th place. I'm proud of you buddy ♥"
Jacob S. ( BOBROCKS333):
"*Writes down Chris*
No comment :/"
As Jodi said it, he went from the 4th person voted out to 4th place, and he did SUCH a fantastic job. It was such a surprise to see him go even though it was obvious he was #4 in the alliance. He won five in a row, and couldn't win the last one he needed. He would have won the ENTIRE season most likely.
