If you got a mail that led to this, then obviously you made the cast. Whopee!

Now, when I said that there would be "eighteen new players" in the group title I wasn't being entirely truthful.  Three of them will in fact be returnees -- people whom I believe we're cut short in their first season and deserve another chance at winning.  They're here to win just like everyone else, but they're also here to give you guys a hand and prove they're worthy of staying in the game.

The returnees are:
- JT (Absol) from Survivor: India and Survivor: Arabia.  Yes, he flopped both seasons.
- Ethan (thewinner) from Survivor: South Africa
- Dra (1Dra7), also from Survivor: South Africa

Alyxandra was Survivor: Ecuador was also asked back, but she declined the offer.

Now, on to the tribes!  Atahualpa and Pachacuti are two Inca leaders (Atahualpa was the guy that got killed by Pizarro, I found Pachacuti on Wikipedia).  De Soto was a conquistador that served under Pizarro.

Atahualpa (Red Buffs):
- Dra (1Dra7)
- Andrew (levonini)
- James (awesome233)
- Chris (blueu22)
- Mike (crazypot12)
- Nick (survivingreality)

Pachacuti (Orange Buffs):
- Ethan (thewinner)
- AJ (KingGeek)
- Jake (schwabby2222)
- Eric (RightToCensor)
- Malcolm (Gleality)
- Krisna (krrais)

De Soto (Light Blue Buffs):
- JT (Absol)
- Quack (quackattack817)
- Isaiah (immaxyman)
- Daniel (texty)
- Keyton (Keyton)
- Seth (BaconBae)

The first immunity challenge will be tomorrow at 4 PM EST. It'll be non-live, but it's honestly just going to be Pass the Torch so being there would be better than not being there.
