    Back after an Easter break, Survivor: Boards.ie returns to torment it's contestants once again.

    Hugh Hefner and AlcoholicA were eliminated in the last round in a controversial Double Eviction. tovalee won immunity by reading a comic!

    Note, if you want to vote for Gordon (I forgot to put him on the list, but he'll be put on when one of the mods gets round to it) then please wait until he is on the list as if you vote for someone else, you will not be able to change your vote later.

    The next (completely unoriginal) immunity challenge will be PM'd to the contestants now and posted here after.

    Previous rounds:
    Round 3
    Round 2
    Round 1
    Round 0

    Who do you want *ELIMINATED* from the next round? 48 votes

    In a slight twist on Immunity Challenge #1, the survivors have to find the exact case-sensitive text string I entered into WikiPedia to produce a page that contains an image I have PM'd to them.

    The first contestant to post back to this thread* with the correct answer will gain immunity from the NEXT ROUND eviction (not this round). You are not allowed multiple guesses in each post - doing so makes all guesses/possible answers in that post invalid. If the winning contestant is evicted this round, and no one else has found the correct string then no one gets immunity from the next round. Same if no one gets the correct answer.

    You may use any means to obtain the answer, except posting of the image to this thread or anywhere else on boards.ie.

    * In the PM sent "this thread" should have actually linked to this thread

    Has this picture been altered in any way - ie: was it a gif originally?

    Or can I not ask that?!

    Only alteration is the name.

    Yes multiple posts are acceptible - the idea being that someone doesn't just belt out a heap of guesses in one post.

    And we have a winner. Gordon is now immune from Round 5.

    powerhousedan's "solar tower" didn't win because entering that into wikipedia brings you to this page which does not contain the picture, whereas "Solar Tower" brings you here, which does contain the picture.

    Keep the immunity challenge ideas coming - I have a good one which I may use the next round...

    Very true.

    Someone emailed me an Immunity Challenge idea that involved the "Big Bow Wow" - the used the word "pony" - I'm not happy....

    At least you make an effort in the immunity challenges, unlike a certain contestant....

    Have a look over the previous rounds - it becomes fairly apparent...
