The Lion Will Now Feast On It's Prey

The lion was then voted out.

**The Lion Will Now Feast On It's Prey** is the tenth episode of MintORGs Season 1: Hogwarts.

## Story

After a dramatic joint tribal, our remaining 13 players have reached the merge phase of the game! The merge tribe was originally called 'Hogwarts', but the players asked for it to be changed to S.P.E.W..

### Day 22

**Andy** hit the ground running at merge, hoping to get close with the Gryffindors and Ravenclaws. He planned on throwing the challenge to make himself look like less of a threat.

**Duolingo** realised he was the only Hufflepuff left. He was devastated to see Laura go. Despite preparing for the challenge, he wasn't able to win immunity.

**Hayleigh** will miss Laura. She hopes to reconnect with Vinny and Tomato, and potentially forming an alliance with Jace. She's very much trying to build up her social connections here, with Kyle and Wei jumping to the top of her trust ranking.

**Imke** being completely new to ORGs didn't expect to make merge, and wasn't even sure how merge worked! We explained it to her.

**Kyle** messaged everyone in the game, but didn't get many responses, and is a little worried about where he stands in the game. He is worried that he is starting to become an outsider and plans on fixing this immediately.

**Nick** believes he can't trust Andy, Vinny or Hayleigh, believing Andy lied about what happened at the Laura vote.

**Nikki** trusts Kyle most going into the merge.

**Rips** thinks he will target Jace first at merge.

**Tomato** feels guilty for plotting against Hayleigh , realising she only flipped on Nick. He plans on throwing Hayleigh under the bus to the other Gryffindors. He tried to name the merge tribe "The Macs and the Cheeses" but that ultimately failed.

**Wei** believes Vinny played Hayleigh "like a fiddle". He's managed to chat with everyone at merge, and thinks Vinny , Andy, Hayleigh and Jace. Duolingo also talked to Wei about Vinny, explaining that they were a snake during the Laura vote.

**Wes** is busy planting seeds against Vinny and is determined to keep the Ravenclaws in the game so a Gryffindor can go next vote.

Unfortunately, **Vinny** informed us that they would be holding off on the game for a while due to someone being murdered on the last day of a reunion they attended. We made the decision to pull Vinny from the game as a result of this. We send our best wishes to Vinny.

### Days 23-24

**Duolingo** is hoping that his social bonds are good enough to keep him safe. He thinks the vote is going to be a split down the middle - with Rips, and against Rips.

**Hayleigh** was happy for Jace winning immunity. Jace told Hayleigh that Nick had said her name. She also noted that Rips and Nick were working closely together. The vote started to shift towards Andy vs Rips and away from Hayleigh. Hayleigh played her Horcrux, but didn't need it in the end.

**Imke** was not happy with how this vote played out.

**Jace** originally wanted to target Duolingo, but due to his idol, he felt as though he too well protected. So the plan shifted to voting out Rips.

**Kyle** completed his VC with Nick, learning a lot about how he plans on playing the game and thinking he seems to want to work with him. He also VCed with Duolingo and enjoyed a chill conversation, and also found out that Duolingo has a full idol (two Horcruxes). He thinks Rips will be a good shield.

**Nick** has coordinated a vote for Hayleigh with Kyle. Rips is coordinating the votes, but is going about it in a controlling way, and Nick notes that this will make him a threat in future.

**Nikki** was hoping to vote Jace but now can't due to him winning immunity. They can't figure out which name to tell Andy. They're aware of a split on Hayleigh and Andy coming together, but is worried that if Horcruxes get played, Rips will go. They were extremely upset about Rips being voted out in the end.

**Rips** is hoping to flush an idol or two by planning a 5-4-3 vote. He noticed the Ravenclaw-Gryffindor alliance was leaked. He planned for Hayleigh to go. Unfortunately, he was voted out.

**Tomato** is sensing chaos, with a vote split and Horcruxes being involved. He tried talking to Rips, but was told "let's talk after tribal", which frustrated him. He also heard from Nick that Rips is the reason Tomato might pick up some votes.

**Wei** told Hayleigh and Tomato to play their Horcruxes due to the chaos. He was frustrated with Rips trying to dictate everything and 'spouting garbage'. Rips threw Tomato's name to Wei.

**Wes** was very chill this vote, sitting back and watching the chaos unfold. They loved the Horcrux advantage twist, and LIVED to see some advantages getting used. They found the vote fun.
