    Survivor: Toon Zone - Immunity Challenge 8

    Like This Thread!
    Come on in guys!

    Team Death, getting their first look at the all new Kitty Brigade, The Detective voted out at the last Tribal Council.

    Team Death, it's once again time to part with your immunity.

    ...Immunity is back up for grabs!

    Today's challenge is going to run a little bit differently. We are still playing for tribal immunity, however, tribe members will be submitting their answers to me individually... Yes! an Individual Challenge for Tribal Immunity. The tribe member who successfully completes this challenge will win immunity for their entire tribe!

    The competition is simple... I'll give you a word. It's up to you to break the word into as many smaller words (American English only, please) as possible. Words can be no shorter than 3 letters long. The tribe member who can come up with the most words by 11:59 pm Wednesday night wins immunity for his tribe.

    Survivors READY!

    your word is: Consolidate

    Good Luck!

    Don't you people understand!?!

    You can use a letter for as many times as it appears in the original word, so, if there's 16 Ws in the original word and you know a word that uses 14 Ws, it's fair game... if the original word has 3 Ws, that 14 W word is then off limits.

    Plurals are fine. Contractions are not.

    What about different languages? I mean, is Lithuanian okay? Or Swedish?



    Just foolin'. I'm sitting this week out, but I still have to cause Colin as much grief as possible.

    Now I'm spoiled for the OVA, and I've only watched the original "Bubbles Vanderbilt" series and the followup "Bubbles Vanderbilt Z"

    I have another question, as well... what happened to the first two Bubbles Vanderbilts?

    Colin's list tip regarding this challenge...

    To clear up further confusion: Tense and Plurilisation are fine provided all the required letters are in the word.

    Don't you people understand!?!

    ...and TIME!!!

    The challenge is over! The judges have tallied the votes... and it's time to reveal the results...

    BUT FIRST! Here's a fun fact. Did you know you can break the word "CONSOLIDATE" down into 853 words consisting of 3 letters or more? That's a lot for an 11-letter word, isn't it?

    ...the judges are telling me I need to stall some more... apparently there's something confusing about SSC's list... something about a strange rash that developed from the cat fur... maybe that judge is allergic? *shrug*

    okay... so further stalling... yeah... anyone know any good jokes?

    Say... have you guys heard the one about the guy and the 500 pounds of cookie dough? No... well, let me tell it...

    *judge hands Colin an envelope*

    Oh... well, I've just recieved the results, and I suppose you'd rather hear the results of the competition than the cookie dough joke.... so, to get right to it... the top word finders were...

    in third place, with 350 words - Singin Stray Cat!
    in second place, with 368 words - Mr Pedro!
    and in first place, with a whopping 453 words... Majin Megabyte!

    ...and that means that Team Death wins immunity! Congratulations Team Death... the Kitties did a good job, just not good enough... again we've got a date at tribal council...

    Don't you people understand!?!

    Ya know, I have a brother who's hopelessly addicted to cookie dough. At times, it can be painful to watch.

    Well, it's nice to know that we have wins again. I knew that I could have gone for more, but no point in worrying now.

    (Unless Majin Megabyte is now elligable to those Van Halen tickets that I mentioned the other day).
    A smoothie would really hit the spot right now.

    Congratulations to Team Death! It was really tough to watch you guys from the sidelines and not be able to jump in and help, but you all did a great job.

    I'm shock at myself. That I won this challenge for our team. Can I mention I am a fan of Van Helen (I listen to there music since I was in preschool. Since my dad have some there cassatte tapes.). I want to say good job for our team.

    Great work, guys!!!

    Tims right. It was tough sitting out the challenge. But I had a chance to wear my old cheerleading uniform again, and root from the sidelines. That was kinda fun. Even if every cheer I knew I had to re-write for Team Death, and try and work in the word "consolidate". Which isn't an easy feat, I'll have you know.

    And you looked pretty snazzy too m'dear, might I add. Now if only my cheerleading outfit didn't involve tight little shorts that are like rejects out of the late 1970's...

    Geez, 853 possible words?! And I though I'd gotten a lot, when I'd gotten hundreds below that! Sheesh, I had no idea there were that many Well, uh, we'll get you next time, I hope. If there is a next time, anyway. There'll only be 3 of us Kitty Brigaders left So, uh, look out, Team Death! I guess

    (5th time's the charm?)
