The very first thing you'll be doing in this challenge is lighting a torch. Fire represents life in this challenge. This a very special torch and is quite top-heavy, so you'll need to make sure it's balanced at all times. To do this, you'll go to your Diary Room and make a new thread for the torch specifically. You must tilt the torch upright at least every two minutes into this challenge. And by at least, that means you can post early to reset back. Simply do this by posting "[Your Name] straightens torch". But everytime you post, that timer starts again. Be very careful because if you miss this, your torch will fall into the water or ground. If your torch goes out, you're out.
Note, there is one person who has an advantage in this challenge. That person will get an extra minute for this part. This means they must tilt the torch back up within 3 minutes throughout the challenge. This only applies to the person who won this in the Veto competition.
But that's only the beginning. The real bulk of the challenge begins here. You will have to put together a canoe in front of you. I will give you the link to a puzzle of a canoe and you will simply have to put it together as fast as you can. Once you complete the canoe, upload and save. Make another thread in your DR and post the canoe as your first post. You will now have to row this boat. To do this you must continiously post "[Your name] rows boat". You will do this a total of 50 times. Once you reach post #50, you will get to your final destination.
This island will house a cryptogram. I will give you this cryptogram and you will use paint or some editing program to fill in the blanks. Once you think you have it, post it and notify me. If you're wrong, try again. If you're right, a flag will drop down. Use the torch you've been carrying the whole time to light the flag ("[Your name] lights flag") and your time will come to a stop.
Person who does this fastest will win HOH.

And we're off the to the races!
Will and Eric are off to quick starts getting their canoe up and into the water, doing a great job of keeping the torch up. Jeff & Jee follow right behind with Casey on caboose. All five are in the water, struggling to row the boat and keep the torch up. But Jee fails to keep the torch above water while rowing! Jee's torch is snuffed and Jee is already out of this competition!
Will gets to the island with ease and gets to work on that Cryptogram.
Jeff has reached land, followed by Eric, followed by Casey! All four men are now working on the Cryptogram! But concentrating too hard on the Cryptogram may cost you... Jeff has just learned that as his torch has fallen into the dirt and the flame has gone out. Jeff is eliminated!
After a few minutes, Casey's torch has the same fate, falling to the ground and going out. It's down to just Eric and Will! Both men doing a good job of keeping that torch up while trying to figure out this Crytpogram.
One looks completely stuck, one is starting to put the pieces together... and looks like they think they have it. Eric, let's see what you got.
Fire represents life. As long as you have fire, you are still in this game. When your fire is gone, so are you.
That is correct!
Congratulations Eric, you are the NEW Head of Household!
