The Island IV

**The Island IV**, also known as *The Island: Half Moon Island*, is the fourth season of *The Island ORG*. The online reality game competition is a blend of popular reality TV shows such as *Big Brother US/UK*, *Love Island* and *Survivor*. The season premiered on Thursday December 1st, 2022.

**Applicants:** 63
**Discord Server:** https://discord.gg/77MFAsjSJT

*The Island* involves a cast, also known as islanders, living in isolation within a discord channel under constant surveillance. They have a confessional room, one-on-one chats with other islanders and alliance chats. To survive the game each islander must be coupled up with another islander whether it's for friendship, love or money. The winning duo will receive $200 and one of them will have the ultimate decision whether to share or steal the cash prize. On the first day, islanders couple up for the first time based on first impressions but over the duration of the season they are forced to re-couple; deciding whether to stay in their current duo or form a new one with a different islander.

Any islander left solo after couplings are usually eliminated from the game. Islanders can also be eliminated through both public and islander vote-offs. Public votes are done from a form sheet where each viewer can vote. How the vote works varies. Islanders who receive the fewest votes are at risk of being eliminated. Islanders also compete in immunity challenges where the winners are safe from elimination and potentially a power which allows them to pick first at the next re-coupling ceremony. During the final days, the public will vote for their favorite duo to win the $200 prize.

### **Gameplay**

* **Bombshells** - The new arrivals sent in to shake-up the game. They were often immune from elimination upon entering.
* **Immunity Challenge** - Islanders competed in several challenge as individuals or duos to win immunity from elimination and/or power in the game.
* **Islander Vote** - Islanders voted to eliminate or voted to save other islanders in the game.
* **OGs** - The islanders that are sent into the game on the first day. There were a total of 12 OGs.
* **Viewer Vote** - Viewers voted to save their favorite islanders as individuals or duos to protect them from elimination and ulitmately to win the game.
* **Re-Coupling Ceremony** - The coupling ceremonies where islanders decided to stick with their duo or to duo with a different islander. A random bot decided who got to pick. The islanders who did not get a priority pick at the previous ceremony got one at the following ceremony unless picked by someone else. If there was an even number, the last two picked would automatically form a duo. If there was an odd number, the islander left unpicked was eliminated from the game unless there was a twist. These ceremonies took place on *Day 3*, *Day 5*, *Day 9*, *Day 13* and *Day 16*.

### **Twists**

* **Ride or Dies** - Some islanders this season entered with a pre-determined partner that they are close with outside of *The Island*, this partner was known as their "ride or die". Some ride or die pairings entered the game as OGs on *Day 1* while other entered as bombshells throughout the season on *Day 3*, *Day 4*, *Day 6* and *Day 8*.
* **Steal Ceremony** - The ceremony where bombshells who entered the game were given the chance to steal someone to be in a duo with. This ceremony took place on *Day 1*.
* **Save Ceremony** - The ceremony where bombshells who entered the game were given the chance to save one of the vulnerable islanders by forming a duo with them. This ceremony took place on *Day 2*.
* **Switch Ceremony** - The ceremony where islanders were forced to duo with a different islander than they were last paired with. Re-coupling with that last islander you had paired with would result in becoming vulnerable. This ceremony took place on *Day 11*.

Additionally, the original islanders consisted of 5 returnees looking to get a second chance in the game (Audrey, David, Dija, Iman & Theo). Immediately after meeting each other, the six single islanders were tasked with mutually splitting themselves up into three duos based off of first impressions.

Upon arriving in the **The Glacier**, the vulnerable islanders were introduced to two new **bombshells**, Annie and Kazue. The vulnerable islanders were told that for the next few hours they would need to openly campaign to the new bombshells in order to stay in the game.

Parris ultimately won the challenge for himself and his duo, Kazue. They were awarded immunity from the upcoming **duo elimination**. Everyone else was told they were left **vulnerable** in their duos. As the newest bombshells, Caroline, Kia and Wyatt were also immune which additionally left Kenzie immune as she was in a duo with an immune islander.

At the firepit, the **viewer** voting results were revealed. Mads & Sal were revealed to have received the fewest votes and were left **automatically vulnerable**.

David & Ice went next and decided to save Jaqson & Kaz.
Jaqson & Kaz went last and had to choose between Annie & Marek, Audrey & Maya, Ava & Iman and Dija & Nic. They chose to save Annie & Marek, sending the other three duos to the **ice block draw**.
Following the **chain of safety**, Dija & Nic drew the **SAFE** block and had to save either Audrey & Maya or Ava & Iman. They chose to save Audrey & Maya, making Ava & Iman vulnerable alongside the already vulnerable Mads & Sal.

Shortly after the **elimination results**, the islanders were secluded in their confessional and told they must vote for their 4 least favorite islanders without discussing it with anyone. They were warned that the islanders with the most votes would be left **vulnerable**. Here is how the islanders voted:

As the top 5 voted islanders, Ava, Dija, Jaqson, Nic and Wyatt were left **vulnerable**. The safe islanders would have the night to discuss voting to evict **ONE** of the five vulnerable islanders. However, despite each islander only having one vote the **TWO** islanders with the most votes would be **eliminated** from the game.
