TFF Survivor: China

[last request]

What if we run out of rice? I assume we don't want to do that?

Well you won't be able to win any advantages for the immunity challenges from then on.

We can survive without our only source of food?!?

 

[Techno Natch]

Wei Ao Song have a nice team with Harv, Lee, Stagat, Steady and Dave so I think I will cheer for them!

Glory supporter.

Sing a Wei Ao Song for Oaf, as he shall not be forgotten.

 

[Bottega Don]

Come on Team Paddy Madden

 

[last request]

Juan Tou Ken are settling in at their camp. Discussion turns to the rice situation.

SUTSS: Hopefully we can win some more rice in tomorrow’s reward challenge, but regardless I think we need to eat a lot so we have strength for the first immunity challenge.

This Charming Mike: I agree, if there is an immunity challenge to really go for it’s the first one. We don’t want to be a man down and playing catch up from the early stages.

blade1889: I’m just desperate to beat JoeJoehowevermanyJoes it is. He said we were the pink tribe! We are clearly wearing red bandanas!

Bottega Don: I think LR said they were claret actually.

blade: Could be viewed as either I guess, but definitely not pink!

A little later Cardsfan and Magic are discussing their tribes chances in the game away from the other four.

Magic: I really think Mike could be a huge asset to our tribe.

Cardsfan: Yeah I agree. I’m sick of him winning Sheep every week though. Hopefully he can help our tribe do well but as an individual I don’t want to see him go too far in the game.

………………………………………………………………………….

Wei Ao Song are also settling in to their new home.

Lee: I think we have a great chance in this game with the likes of me, Steady, Harv and Oaf on this tribe.

Harv goes on to share his survival tips for living in the wild. A little later, Dave and Stagat go off for a stroll away from the rest of the tribe.

Dave: Can’t believe Leewilson and all them acting like they are superstars. We all earned the right to be here by qualifying, we start as equals in my opinion.

Stagat: Except maybe for him, he didn’t even have to qualify!

Dave: Good point. Also, I bet Oaf had those crossword answers sent to him.

Stagat: Yeah and I heard Harv got his place because he's such a survival expert. But did you hear his plan earlier for how to live out here in the wilderness?! Load of nonsense!

Dave: I know. I guess Steady earned his way here fairly like me and you. Shame about that whole Nike thing. I don’t want to be associated with him if he’s going to do something embarrassing like that again.

Stagat: Yeah I was screaming at the TV when that happened in the last season. It had to be Naismith! There was no other Everton player with a name beginning with N!

Dave: Apart from of course Kevin Nirallas and Romelu Nukaku.

Stagat: Haha good one! I Nike it.

Back at camp the conversation continues between the other four Wei Ao Song members, with Harv taking a trip down memory lane.

Harv: I really think we can get a great team spirit going on this tribe. I teamed up successfully with some of you before. Lee, me and you teamed up to take down the Mole - Argyle Dude.

Lee: Bit of a selective memory there Harv. You didn’t share your early suspicions of Argyle Dude in order to help your cause as an individual in that game. I was more of a team player in The Mole than you.

………………………………………………………………………….

Meanwhile, Xue Zhao Yi have found their way to their camp.

StagsForLife: Can’t believe we made it to China! This is amazing! Look at that spectacular scenery!

SALTIRE: I know, I think we should have a party!

The Hand of Dom: We don’t really have any drinks, red bull or soft drinks that would normally be available.

Rammy: …or food, or music!

SALTIRE: We’ve got 40 bags of rice though, let’s have a RICE PARTY!

Spirederman: No, we need to ration our rice out, can’t blow too much on the first night, however jubilant the mood is.

SALTIRE: Who made you leader?

Rammy: Come now, let’s not have an argument. I don’t approve of them.

The Hand of Dom: Yeah, but I think the rice situation needs to be monitored. Not that I don’t trust you guys but maybe we could have a different ‘rice monitor’ every day. Except Joe should never be rice monitor because he’ll probably trade all our rice in for a broken down UFO.

JoeJoeJoeJoe: That wasn’t me! Anyway I’m off to read my Tony Mowbray autobiography for a bit. Very happy with my choice for my one luxury item.

Looks like there are a few early tensions, which tribe will hold it together in tomorrows's reward challenge?

 

[HarvSFC]

I've been misquoted.

 

[Oaf]

Nice, so those teams are legit! Very happy with that.

Also:

DEATH TO TEAM JOHN TOUCAN!

DEATH TO TEAM ZHAO YUN!

GLORY TO TEAM BOOM BOOM BOOM LET ME HERE YOU SAY WAYO, WAYOOO!

 

[Rammy]

I don't remember saying that!

EDIT: Damn, Harv beat me to it.

 

[Leewilson]

Will the 3 tribes eventually merge into 2 LR? Or will it just be 3 tribes straight into 1 tribe when the numbers get low?


Annoyingly, I won't be around for the first challenge tomorrow as I'll be on a train back to London from Exeter. Daggers final game of the season. I shall try and get the game up on my phone and participate if possible such is my commitment but I have zero chance if it's a fastest finger game.

I trust my team mates to bring the glory home, especially "the two" who worked "so hard" to qualify.

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Rich McLean. What a dick.

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Holy shit:

 

[TomPNE94]

I'm gonna support Mike's team

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

I'm gonna support Mike's team

I tried to get you in and this is how you repay me.

(p.s. Have you done an awards list?)

 

[Veggie Legs]

Three strong looking tribes there. Wei Ao Song have arguably the strongest tribe on paper, but I'm backing Juan Tou Ken to be the leaders going into the single tribe stage. I think SUTSS, Magic and Blade1889 are dark horses to win this.

 

[SUTSS]

By harnessing the power of the toucan we shall be unstoppable!

 

[SUTSS]

The toucan's born out of thunder,
He flies through the night,
Don't you mess with his eggs now,
or you'll see him fight!

Yes we have feathers,
but the muscles of men,
'Cuz we're toucans of war now,
but we're also men.

TOUCANS OF WAR!!!

Can't say exactly, but at some point there will definitely be just 1 tribe and the individual challenges will start. This is when the rice bidding will end.

 

[Spirederman]

What is the meaning of our tribe name LR?

 

[Stagat]

What is the meaning of our tribe name LR?

I'd like to know too. The individual words in yours could be 'snow, look (for), one' but are more than likely not I suppose.

 

[last request]

No particular meaning to any of the tribe names, I just picked a combination of random Chinese names/words.

Just a reminder, today's challenge starts at 7 pm, with the explanation posted half an hour before.

 

[Ciderhead]

I'm backing the Toucans for this. They've got the tinpot spirit and with TCM in there they won't be afraid to bend the rules a little

Love the shitstirring from LR!!

 

[Oaf]

All this outside support from non-players, yet not a single one of them for Team Wei Ao. You're all going to be disappointed.

Except Natch, but as you've ignored him maybe he will switch his support.

 

[IanH]

Up Team Juan Tou Ken!

 

[Oaf]

Not sure how I missed that. But he left me and Lee out of his list of nice people

[Rammy]

I can use this game to take my mind off how fucking shit my football team is. Cheers LR

 

[SALTIRE]

I'll be on it in the next hour once the footy is done and then spend that final hour before the start of the challenge trying to figure out what I/we are going to be doing!
