This was a really great moment, but it may not have happened had Andrew ( donosaurus_rex) not quit. Sambava merged with Andapa and had only three members, Jordyn ( carleebear), Ronnie ( JBC8), and Jake ( Jakehou97). Their relationships seemed to be fairly good with each other, but they knew they needed more votes. Jordyn began working on Erik ( EEstrada17) as well as Ethan ( thewinner). After Andrew quit, nine people were left, and the six remaining Andapa never thought any of their own members would flip on themselves, but...it happened.
THE MERGE:
Jake ( Jakehou97):
"Anyways, if there is merge we are going to be down 7-3
its not looking good
but us 3 has to stick to core"
Mykel ( CheapCheep):
"Obviously the alliance is all in this together. Since we beat the original Sambava tribe 7-3 we minus well just random.org the next 3 people getting voted out. =) I think I may be taken out as a threat so i'm trying to lie back a little bit before I really start COMPETING in challenges."
Jordyn ( carleebear):
"KK. So, my plan at merge was to get eestrada to flip to our tribe @ merge. that worked, but our tribe is so small, we still need more votes. so he tells me that themissinglink and manalord are at the bottom of his tribe so talk to them
So, I go to talk to Link, then I realize that him, dono, cheep and survivor are ALL friends(looking at the friends list)
So, then my plan comes...
I have me, jake and ronnie all on the same page. Erik is flipping, so now, if I can convince thewinner + manalord using the information I just found, we can claim majority"
Erik ( EEstrada17):
"Well we merged! Wooooo. I'm not exactly too excited because this tribal council will definitely show us who's on what side. I want to stir the pot and flip on my tribe, but at the same time, I can't do it alone. The other side is already down in numbers so why not wait a little? Jordyn wants me to help him stay in the game and I don't know if I can help him or if I even should. This merge is definitely not in my favor."
Jordyn (#carleebear):
"That's why I think in next few votes, we should try and take them out, then continue to play this game out."
Ethan (#thewinner):
"I have considered flipping honestly. If I can get the other outsiders to do it ill be in.
But it's basically a tribe of 6 now since Dono quit"
Jordyn (#carleebear):
"Because your tribe is you, Erik, Survivor, Link, Dono, manalord, and cheepcheep. Dono is leaving Tengaged.. And Survivor, Link and CheepCheep are all friends, and will vote to keep each other over you or anyone else.I have my tribe together, and Erik said he would flip if you would. I really think that we should do this, because it would shock the friends but also give us each a chance at this game."
Jordyn (#carleebear):
"Awesome! I really think we can pull this off, since this will give us 5 votes, for sure! The plan is to vote Survivor next round, since he's a pretty big competition threat, but I'll mail you or skype you when we completely decided. Thank you! And this move will be awesome"
Ethan (#thewinner):
"I just sent a mail to Erik about it. Honestly though, I'd like to see Cheep go first. He just thinks he has the whole game under wraps and I want to see the look on his virtual face when it happens haha"

Tom ( Survivorfan1111):
"Yay jury stage. First off I would like to say I an happy to make it this far and I hope to continue to go further.
I feel bad for Andrew leaving, but it was his choice so I feel hit was his time to quit. It also eliminates a big threat in the game. However, he was a part of my Final 4 alliance so right now I don't know where I stand.
At this point, Andapa should be sticking together. There is no point in flipping at this point. At Final 7, I might decide to gather one Sambava remaining and start something new. But right now, eliminating Sambava is the goal."
Ethan ( thewinner):
"Shit, well Cheep was my target, but survivorfan1111 is up next I guess. But now Jake is banned so that sucks for us. "
TRIBAL COUNCIL:
Logan (Me):
"Ethan - Do you think Mykel is becoming a threat now because of his wins?"
Ethan (#thewinner):
"To me right now that is irrelevant. We need to take care of Andapa first. It may put a target on his back in some people's eyes but not really to me."
Logan (Me):
"Tom - Should Andapa be unified tonight? Do you truly expect a Sambava member to go home?"
Tom (#Survivorfan1111):
"Yes to both questions. Andapa has shown itself as a tribe to be unified and we shall see that again tonight."
Ronnie ( JBC8):
"Andapa, think about this... All of you can't make finals. Why take out the Sambava tribe when you could take us out at literally anytime that you wanted to. It doesn't make a lot of sense. You guys have big threats on your tribe. Look at mana there. He's a dirty player and I know for a fact will backstab and lie his way to finals. I've watched him backstab before. He has no shame in doing it. Just a thought for this Tribal Council since I know that it will be me going home tonight anyways which I'm fine with if its my time to go. But t least think about this and spare Jordyn and Jake. They don't deserve to go home at the next two tribal councils."
Logan (Me):
"Jordyn - Do you expect to see your name on the parchment paper tonight?"
Jordyn (#carleebear):
"Would it sound arrogant if I say no?"

Mykel (#CheapCheep):
"I can already name 1 of the traitors. I'm F*CKED now though."
Link (#themissinglink):
"Well 2 people just guaranteed they won't win this game..."
Mykel (#CheapCheep):
"Why would y'all flip the vote? We had NUMBERS HERE, and you threw it away.
Congrats Jake, Jordyn, and Ronnie on F3.
I hope the people who flipped realize they are either going home at F5, or they won't be getting votes in the end. I'm the 2nd member of jury now thanks to you two."
Ronnie (#JBC8):
"Cheap, you can't predict the future. So just shut up, OKAY?!?"
Mykel (#CheapCheep):
"I don't know why you're angry @ me JBC, considering I just said you made F3."
Still think that was the best move I made that season. Otherwise, I would've been voted out for 6th or whatever. It was clear my own tribe didn't even like me either soo haha
