You wake up shivering in the middle of the night. A cold has come over you of a magnitude that you've never experienced. In some of the storage closets in your buildings, you grab any coats hats, and carves you can find. When you step outside, you see the world has literally frozen over. The heating in your building is out, and you know you won't be able to survive on the same islands for very long without getting some sort of internal heating.
You step on the iced-over ocean to find that it seems to go thousands of feet deep, being almost completely frozen at the top. Since your boat cannot travel on ice, you realize you will have to walk back to the Governor's Island.
After a grueling amount of hours of walking, you get to the Governor's Island. You go inside the main gubernatorial building, where to your misfortune the heating is not on. Out of exhaustion, both groups fall asleep together in this building.
You wake up to the sounds of crashing. Loud and thunderous. The sun is shining bright through the windows. Ice is melting and crashing. The roof begins to collapse and you each make a break to leave the building. You look at the Liberty and Ellis islands far off, and you realize due to their historical preservation they are not as affected by the climate change. Amidst the chaos of the crashing ice, your groups are once again shuffled and split up.
As you can see, Ellen has been exiled by herself and she will join the team that goes to Judgement next.
Before we get to the challenge, there are currently no Hidden Immunity Idols in play. In the next 24 hours, you will have the opportunity to get one. Everyone will submit who they think are secret partners in the game in their confessional. The person who gets the most accurate list will get a Hidden Immunity Idol. If there is a tie, then time will be a factor- so post ASAP.
Now back to the 'storyline'...
Ellen has been wedged under a tree and cannot move. There is only one working boat for the other two groups. The team that wins the challenge will be get to go on the boat, while the other team will be forced to Judgement- after which Ellen will join their team.
The challenge is pretty simple. To get to the boat, you will have to break down the ice that is blocking the way to the boat.
You will use the wall of ice below, and you will have to do the following to break the individual pieces.
[Your Name Here] grabs a mallet.
*wait ____ minutes*
[Your Name Here] smashes the ice.
*wait one minute*

Every time you post, you will need to update the image with one of the 'ice pieces' gone. Depending on what row the ice is on will affect how many minutes you wait. So, for the bottom row you will wait exactly 10 minutes, and for the top row you will wait exactly 100 minutes.
The team that eliminates the most ice pieces will win immunity.
