Yasmina scored the ability to effect the game and stonefisher1 protected herself. with an ironic twist it was victoroxila who won the advantage the next immunity challenge AND the disadvantage! But it was doodyful who walked away with immunity.
...
After the auction it was revealed that Yasmina's 'power to effect the game' was sending three people to Exile Island. They would NOT attend Tribal. She chose to send jiggleoo, hufflebibin and doodyful.

On day 15, the tribes merged to form one tribe. Excitement filled the camp as the survivors realised that they had a 1 in 10 shot of winning the title of sole survivor. Discussion formed as to what the new tribe name should be. Stonefisher1 suggested Heroy, a mixture of both Heron and Fitzroy while doodyful suggested Bitjara after a real Queensland aboriginal tribe.
...
DOODYFUL: "I vote for Bitjara"
VICTOROXILA: "Bitjara sounds fine"
...
At the immunity challenge, the tribe ranked each other from most useful tribe member to most useless. The points were spread pretty evenly leaving Hufflebibin voted most useless and LillyXoXo being voted most useful giving her the first individual immunity.
...
That night at tribal council, the new Bitjara tribe spread their votes around with yasmina, anth_, doodyful, ladyangel, and hufflebibin all recieving one vote. But in the end it was Anth_ who ecieved the most votes and became the first member of the jury.

"ANTH_ the tribe has spoken"

At Heron, two of the survivors Hufflebibin and VictorOxila thought they recognised each other from outside of the game. While Heron continued celebrating their winning streak.
...
ANTH_ "we are on a winning streak.. hey"
...
At the immunity challenge the tribes tested their eye sight in a challenge of words. Although Fitzroy continued fighting as hard as they could, it was Heorn who once again walked away with the victory.
...
Beaten again, the mood at Fitzroy spelled certain doom for the ex-Heron members doodyful and stonefisher. Sensing a merge was near the original Fitzroy's thought they should stay together.
...
But that night at Tribal Council, old tribal lines were forgotten and Kizza became the 6th person voted out of the game.
...
"KIZZA, the tribe has spoken"
...
10 remain, who will be voted out next?!?

The tribes were awoken on day 9 to find the game had changed. Expecting a challenge the tribes learned they were going to be mixed up.
...
"Everybody, drop your buffs!"
...
The tribes were split into two new tribes. The new Fitzroy had: stonfisher1, kizza, ladyangel, doodyful, dustinb1964 and crazy342. While the new Heron consisted of: hufflebibin, yasmina, anth_, jiggleoo, lillyxoxo and VictorOxila. Both tribes enjoyed getting to know their new team mates,
...
CRAZY342: "HI new ppl's"
...
But the celebrations were short lived.
...
At the immunity challenge, tribes competed to collect large stones from 10 home bases. Heron dominated the challenge scoring 8 out of the 10 stones while Fitzroy scored only 1 stone collected by stonefisher1. At the challenge a twist was revealed. The winning Heron tribe was given the opportunity to vote for one member of Fitzroy to receive individual immunity for that nights Tribal council.
...
That night at Tribal, the votes were revealed from Heron's immunity vote giving Kizza individual immunity. In the end, although the votes were close is was dustinb1964 who was voted out.

At Heron, the tribe was starting to realise how hard it was getting to vote people out and a plan was made for the reamaining Heron's to stick together. While at Fitzroy, still reeling from their first loss some even weeped silently in the bushes. While Austin had had enough of his cocnut friend and ate him, much to the disgust of some of his tribe.
...
HUFFLEBIBIN: He was my brother! *sobs*
...
At the immunity challenge tribes competed to find the best S.O.S signal. Both tribes made a great effort but in the end it was Heorn who once again came back with the victory.
...
That afternoon, with Fitzroy facing Tribal Council, both Austin and Hufflebibin felt they were on the chopping block due to inactivity. Both of them pleaded their case to the tribe.
...
AUSTIN: guys, please dont vote for me cuz i was gone for a couple days and i told y'all that i would be. but i'm back and ready to fight for my life!
...
At Tribal Council, it came down once again to a gripping four way tie with one vote left. In the end, the tribe felt Austin was the weakest link and sent him packing.
"Austin, the tribe has spoken"

At Fitzroy camp, the tribes attention turned to boosting moral as VicotOxila tried to bring more fun into camp life. While Austin was still having trouble with his coconut.
AUSTIN: *chases the coconut* DIE LITTLE COCO! *coconut grabs hammer and hits me in the head with it*
Crazy342 took advantage of Austin's state by tripping him up for a bit of laughter.
...
At the immunity challenge, the tribes competed in a game called Raftwars. although both tribes gave there all at the challenge, Fitzroys winning streak finally ended with Herons first victory
...
That afternoon, Heron celebrated winning their first challenge, while doodyful got addicted to Raftwars. Over at Fitzroy, although trying to keep the moral up, it was suggested that the tribe vote out the people not contributing enough.
...
That night at tribal council, it was Elitegirl whom the tribe deemed was not contributing enough and she was voted out.
ELITEGIRL, the tribe has spoken.
...
13 remain, who will be voted out next.
