Well, I would seriously like to congratulate the 14 of you that are still in the competition! You all have done a tremendous job in this competition, and you should all be proud of yourselves! However, there is one major announcement that I would like to make!

Competitors, DROP YOUR BUFFS!!! YOU HAVE OFFICIALLY MERGED!!! That's right!! The fourteen of you have made it to the merge!!

Now, here is the deal! We are still in the middle of a Peninsula Challenge right now between Eliza, J.T., Mike, and Purple Kelly! After this current challenge, only two will remain in on The Peninsula! Those two winners will join Andrew and Kelly and those four will compete in the FINAL PENINSULA CHALLENGE! Of those four, two will make their way back into the game to make a final sixteen!!

Also, for an important immunity challenge detail! For the next TWO immunity challenges, the sixteen of you will be divided into two groups of eight. In each group, one person will win immunity!

Then, the sixteen of you will all vote for the one person that you want voted out of the game! The TWO people with the most votes WILL be eliminated for good, because there will be NO MORE PENINSULA CHALLENGE AFTER WE HAVE OUR FINAL SIXTEEN!! When you are voted out, you are out for good!! There will be double eliminations in the next two rounds, rounding us out from 16 to 12! The four eliminated during those two rounds will NOT become members of the jury!! Once we do get to twelve though, we will start forming the jury!

So, right now, enjoy the celebratory merge gift basket complete with foods, a flag, paints, and new green buffs! Your job right now is to just relax and come up with your new tribe name, which can be any name you want!! Once again, congratulations on making it to this very important point in the game!!
