Below you will find a set of questions addressed to everyone. Everyone must reply below with their answer and if you do not - you will receive a self vote. All questions are to be a response in this thread. Please feel free to say what's on your mind, express yourself because this might be your last opportunity to possibly change your fate in this game. You're actively encouraged to talk amongst yourselves in Tribal... you're the ones calling the shots!
After an individual has answered their questions please go into your confessional and cast your vote in your voting thread.
Below you will find a blank piece of parchment. Save it to your computer and decorate it however you wish, but please include the name (or nickname) of the person you are voting out. When you are done decorating, save the parchment again, upload it, and post this in your confessional as your vote. Accompany this parchment with a reason.
Questions
Animal: Are you surprised to be here at Tribal Council tonight? Explain. You've been scoring pretty decently in challenges up until this point. Has it been difficult adjusting to your recent loss, and having to now strategize and keep yourself safe before the vote? Explain.
BK: You're the only person in the game to be a Shudra the entire time thus far. Do you feel like you're doing enough to continue on? Explain. What are you basing your vote on tonight? Explain.
Brookie: Last tribal council you played the Amulet of Ganesh. In result you sent Fei home with one single vote. What was your reaction after those results were posted? Explain. Here you sit in the same predicament just a few days later. Do you think lightening will strike twice and you'll still be in the game tomorrow? Defend.
Jordan: The same question as BK. It's no secret that you've been missing in action quite a bit. Do you think you deserve to survive tonight more than the four other people sitting next to you? Explain. You and Quanz are both returnee's sitting here at Tribal - do you feel like the returnee target is still alive and well? Explain.
Quanz: Continuing with the theme of what's fair and what isn't. Would it be fair if you were voted out over some others sitting here tonight? Explain. What have you done to ensure you're not the one getting their torch snuffed? Explain.
Instructions
1. All castaways eligible to vote have until 3:00PM EST THURSDAY AFTERNOON to answer their question(s) and upload their vote/bid in their confessional with an accompanying reason.
2. Once your vote is in, it is final. No re-editing or deleting the thread, we will check the security logs.
3. If you wish to play a Hidden Immunity Idol, please accompany it with your vote.
4. You must inform all members of Staff if you require to vote through a different method (Facebook etc.) if you cannot vote in your Journal for whatever reason. There is no guarantee of which host will post results so covering all bases is essential. This is your only warning.

Like I said before, adjusting to playing while being in school has been pretty difficult. As far as being deserving to stay, that's for everyone sitting here to decide. The returnee target could definitely still be alive, and I think we will find out whether or not it is tonight.

Last round was AMAZING. I did have a few doubts about the votes, ties, etc. But it played out perfectly. I was sure they would at least try to split the vote, but luckily they didnt. When I was scrolling down the TC results I was laughing so hard, it was just a great fucking feeling.
Well, I sure hope I'm in the game tomorrow. Part of me is confident and the other part realizes that the last 2 TC's have been blindsides to people. You never know. I'm hoping no one is lying to me and I can continue on in the game

All is fair in love, war and Survivor(That's not an invitation to vote me out). I do think it would be stupid, but I am bias. I think I've bonded with enough people that I'm seen as an asset not a threat and I hope that it keeps me safe!

Sandy do you have to keep reminding me about it. I mean its bad enough that my buff smells like s*** because I never get to switch. It's always fun over here in Shudara though. They always say the we party the hardest. It's also great to see some returning people to the tribe. Hey Brookie and Quanz! It sucks being a three time Shudra. Pity party in Shudra population:1. Let's get serious. i believe I have done enough to stay in this game. My competitive game has been abysmal. Who know if it ever will recover? However, I believe that I have made enough connections with people to keep myself in the game longer. I believe in the end it is all a social game, look at Russell Hantz, he was competitive, but his social game was such crap that he got zero votes in Heroes V. Villains and only votes in Samoa. Hopefully mine can get me at least through this tribal. Tonight I am basing my vote both on strategic and personal reasons.

No, I'm not at all surprised to be here, Sandy. A lot of people probably view me as threat because I did well in the first couple of challenges, which I got lucky in. The first challenge, Aaron gave me a couple of key answers and it just so happened he messed up early on and I got the win. In the second challenge, I did two high scoring video points just for fun and got to the top. In the third challenge, I got lucky because I got "saved." Now when it actually came time for me to perform well on my own, I obviously didn't perform up to the task and I flaked out. I knew this challenge wouldn't be my strong suit but I still tried. It wasn't too difficult adjusting to my loss since I saw it coming from the moment you posted the challenge, but having to strategize in order to keep myself safe is a bit different, since in the past I just had immunity, but I never felt like I took that for granted, and I have always been playing the game just as everyone else, so I hope that doesn't put me at a disadvantage tonight, but I guess we will see.

Okay, guys. It really does kill me to do this, but I talked with Sandy about it. And I really do believe that it is the right decision. It's definitely obvious that I have not had the time to put in as much effort as everyone else has. That's really not fair. I know most of you devote hours a day to this game, whereas I've devoted only a couple hours total to this game. I hate to be a quitter, but I think it is best that I lay down my torch. I know that people want to keep me in the game because I'm seen as weak and some people think they can control my vote. Honestly, I understand that strategy. However, I simply don't deserve to be here. It kills me to say that, but I just don't have time for this. I'm so distracted by school and my new friends, and that's more important to me right now. I wish I had the time to get on Skype and get to know you guys because that's really my favorite part about playing these games. But I just don't right now. I respect Sandy and this series too much to just stick in this and let deserving people go home while I'll most likely get removed in a few rounds anyway. I desperately wanted to come back and redeem myself from my previous season, but this game is just not happening at a good time for me. I wish all of you luck, and I am so sorry that I was not able to give this game the effort that it deserves. Live it up, guys. Sandy is an amazing host, and this is an amazing series. So give it your all, and make it a good show.

Jordan you are a class act. I enjoyed our first chat immensely! I'm sure if you had the time things would be different. You would have been a great competitor. Sorry to see you go!
Sandy does this mean we don't vote? lolll

With that said, Jordan, you are fifth person voted out.
*The Tribe Has Spoken*
You will not head to Redemption Cove, but instead go home immediately.
Animal, BK, Brookie, Quanz, congrats on surviving the vote.
