*Freddy Rises from the Boiler Room*
A few things to deal with today
First of all, thank you to ALL of the PREJURY members that fought to return to the game Saturday/Sunday. Some blew away the competition while others fell on their faces scoring 0 points. We encourage you all to return in future seasons to thrive for your Redemption if interested.
This season we have had a lot of communication rules being broken, lines being blurred and essentially confusion leading to bigger issues. Usually once the prejury challenge would have ended I would have made an announcement immediately of results. Because of personal obligations and waiting on tribe relocation decisions from one of the players this announcement did not happen. I then still in my own personal bubble was approached by Greed/Lust members inquiring if PreJury members were allowed to contact them. Under no circumstance does this rule change and players past and present need to etch this into their brains.
The complication with this situation is the players returning had been told they were doing as such. Their personal thought on their new status, whether now active player, or still PreJury was unsure. Obviously one of them thought it was now okay to share their glory with some of the players who had yet to leave the game. Know that the hosting staff an I were NOT unified on this decision. I spent the morning going over chats, and information and because the person who made the contact has given me NO reason to assume they contacted members with the intent of breaking the rule, but truly believed they were back and ready to play, no punishment has been given. HOWEVER. The staff and I feel like were beating a dead horse. From this point on and in FUTURE seasons, the rules are changing. There will be no warnings, or punishments. IF CAUGHT SPEAKING WITH A PREJURY OR JURY MEMBER NOT IN ACTIVE STATUS AS A PLAYER IN THE ONGOING GAME, you WILL BE REMOVED. You will go RIGHT TO PREJURY (NO JURY). If you are contacted, DO NOT RESPOND (if even remotely game related). COME AND FIND STAFF. WE WILL INFORM the person they are breaking the rules an putting at risk not only their status in the game but others as well. I will not hesitate to remove players from the game from this point on.. It is sad I need to harshen the rules, because it does not seem to be sinking in.
As per the PreJury twist. Rob Hawkins and Hades respectively gained each of themselves enough points to return. Meowth, and Peter were breathing heavily down the competitions neck but fell just shy. One of the reasons that this information was not shelled out to the entire cast by STAFF last night was because Rob being the winner of the challenge, has a decision to make.
Rob has decided to return to GREED, meaning HADES you will be joining LUST. This will take place later this afternoon. All other PREJURY members with the addition of Dalek and Pennywise who were most recently voted out who are interested in participating in next season please see Freddy privately to potentially reserve a spot.
Today Rob and Hades will find themselves back in the game. They are now free to begin talking with the players in the game, and still briefly allowed to banter in the Prejury while I am changing access around. Horror Mail and MVP polls WILL go up tonight, but you will not have your next challenge until WEDNESDAY at 8 PM Eastern. Polls will be open until that time. The challenge will require your presence sooner then later if you hope to win immunity. Enjoy the micro mini break because it only gets more intense from here on else.
By the way we will be visiting HELLS KITCHEN next season.
