Verse 1
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Grinches
The team destined to take the prize, even if only by inches.
To the island of the Sim they came, knowing a million’s in their clinches
We'll take the cash and run.

Verse 2
The Grinches started strong, under Skippy’s watchful lead,
Then Gigi took the reins, for a fun and slimy read.
Now Nan is in the driver’s seat, and the team is all agreed -
Our team is matched by none.

Verse 3
They are grieving for the fallen, most recently Cheyenne,
They may have lost some players but they have the will to win
There’s no better team to choose, with their knowledge of the Sim.
Their newbie days are done!

Verse 4
The Grinches fear no challenge, they’ll rise to any battle.
They mock the threats of other teams, ignore their idle prattle.
The Grinches spur their brave sim-steeds, though Skippy rides side-saddle.
His ballz are still glued on...

Verse 5
There is no hope for Zosimos, you simply are outclassed
And as for At the Wire, you guys know your time has passed.
Let’s face it, you’ll be singing too, as we hand you back your *cough*
You've been served, now it's on!

Glory, glory to the Grinches,
Glory, glory to the Grinches,
Glory, glory to the Grinches,
A Grinch will win the game!

So we had a american idol meets simvivor challenge this week and im glad to see you all liked it. Sadly someone has to go. or two....

The commentary....

Paula said. ...

#1: The Grinches
Wow... I love how creative the idea was to parody the Battle Hymn of the Republic! The lyrics seemed to flow nicely when listening to it, so my props to Team 1. The song also seemed to give the feeling of the team "marching off to battle" so to speak, quite appropriate indeed.

#2: At The Wire
I thought it was just awesome how the entire team contributed to the singing portion of this challenge. Talk about visible team effort! The lyrics were inventive, and they gave the viewers a glimpse of the masterminds behind Team At The Wire. I felt that it fell just a tad short of The Grinches effort, but still it was an incredibly solid performance.

#3: Zosimos
I loved the song alot, the only thing I have against it is that it didn't seem as intense as the other two teams' efforts. No doubt it was very, very creative; it just didn't inspire the same height of emotion in me as the other two did.

I meant that was Fanta =)...

Chani said Skippy needed cloths because now she has nightmares.... oh and also legitly said....


Grinches song is stuck in my head like any good campfire song. Very creative taking a well known song and turning it into a treat. And now I have skippy's nakedness in my brain.. not a good thing..

At the wire was very creative, utilized all team members and did a great job on team work. Wish they incorporated lyrics so we could sing-a-long.

Zosimos was a little one note for me, a slow campfire song, but they seemed to overlook At the Wire in their song. Were they intentionally dismissed? Where was the teamwork?

She ranked Grinches first , at the wire 2nd and third to Zosimos.

I said....

The Grinches blew it by having skippy naked ...just kidding ranked 1st. Very catchy song. Good effort. Team work was decent. True great campfire song. Very well done....

Second was tough but I had to follow my co judges and give it to At The Wire. They had teamwork and some fun little lines in there. I liked Emilys the best. Some of it made me feel awkward but ill give you second by a hair.

Third sorry Zosimos it wasnt really campefire but more radioish song which I actually prefered. I saw a little less team effort as the rest and would have liked more. Nice attempt this was obviously very competitive this week.

So the battle.... As it seems clear the results Zosimos you guys will go in battle. Blue Cashew being captain is auto in the battle and due to a bad report im going to ask Rose and Joe to join. No voting needed here...

Battle
By tomorrow at 11pm est time I need you in battle to have submited on the forum a tv show based on your team with a description why. The most fun and creative with survive.

There is 3 of you in battle 2 will go.

All teams must have submited me a name for captain by tomorrow at midnight eastern .

I decided I wanted to break up the teams and make partners. We are down to the final 9 started with over 20 so you all should at this time be active, willing, and starving to come out on top. Each week I have cut down multiple players at once, but now that we should have only the real deals here I will start doing only single eliminations.

The teams have been assigned based on the fact you need to work together better and get along...meaning either someone on the team has ratted you out, thinks they are better then you, dislikes you, or one has a weakness that is the other strengths. There is 9 players because of no participation in the battle meaning there will be a "TEAM" of three. Next week it will be equal and partners will stay until the final 4.

So before I introduce the challenge I will introduce the partners....

First team is like the sun with the moon, water with fire, lets see how SKIPPY aand GIGI do as partners! I decided for now Ashley will be the extra person this week and join to tame this teams differences!

Next up will be the one that calls herself lazy and the one who likes to do everything himself....EMILY and CLINTON!

Third partnership will be the silent ones. NAN and Vinny! Dont chat up storms you two.

Last team will be fun to team up miss MADDY and IGGY......!


Now the challenge. The judges have decided that the island is getting boring so not only did we break up the teams for getting along to well but we also decided you needed to make it funner for us. Comedy. You guys this week as a challenge need to find five different comedy improv games and record your partnerships doing them together! The most creative and team to make us lol the best will be the winner! The winning team will pick one person to join the losing team in battle and this person selected by the winning team will get to choose another to join the battle. 4 people will be in battle. The winning team has immunity.

Good luck and have fun. Challenge is due by 4pm est time Friday...if the judges scores make a group of people tied with someone the tie will be determined by first to finish the challenge.

Any questions post in the forum.
