Challenge 7 Results

Another week, another challenge. After a week of Cam hosting alone, I am back to writing posts. Since these posts have started getting smaller and smaller, I figured I'd take some time to reflect on the history of our contestants.

Just a quick note that I am going by the order of CPSkool seasons in this reflection, not my predictions on the order of eliminations.

The first of the Final 5 to be eliminated was Bailey, otherwise known as Sand Flipper. Bailey was also the first runner up of the first season of CPSkool, all the way back in October 2009. Season 1 set the trend of having a multi-challenge finale. In this particular season, the competitors had to play Card Jitsu, draw crowds in Banned Band, then perform a dance routine in Dance Contest. After a close analysis, Bailey barely missed her chance at victory to Mat's dance skills. This would forever be remembered as the only time Mat's dancing was considered award-worthy.

After a successful first season, CPSkool immediately jumped into its second season. CP High would be the season that began the running joke that Penny Mickey, otherwise known as Penny, tends to get victory ripped out of her arms once she gets close to it. Interestingly, the second season was the only season to have one part to its finale. It would also be the only season to have three teams instead of the standard two. Both contestants had to rush to find Lady Danger around the world of Club Penguin. Laura beat Penny by over a minute, meaning she was the final victor. Since then, Laura has vanished without a trace... except if you mention Asian boy bands.

CP College was one of the longest seasons, spanning across 17 weeks with 15 contestants. However, its finale ended up comprising of the Trainer Dynasty. Guitarking97, otherwise known as Zach, was pitted against Checkers4562, otherwise known as Shannon. Interestingly, Shannon won every single part of this four-part finale, resulting in her final victory. Zach was considered one of the strongest competitors of the season, however.

Ty Waddles, otherwise known as Andre, and Gabriella737, otherwise known as Bumble, were considered some of the worst slackers in Season 4. Season 4's Final 5 was entirely comprised of people who no longer go on chat.

After a year hiatus, CPSkool returned with a fifth season entitled "CPSkool Forever". Blooper5, otherwise known as Lewis, was personally chosen by Bumble to be eliminated after the Final 3 challenge. Afterwards, Bumble and Andre faced off in an interesting three-part finale where Bumble won a vote by previous contestants, Andre won a three-part challenge, but Bumble ended up with the most tickets in the end. Andre was voted to be the preferred winner in a poll that turned out to not have any relevance to deciding the final victor.

I have a few announcements to make:

1) There will not be an idol given out this challenge due to the fact that we are very close to the finale. Penny is the victor for this week and this will be accounted for later.

2) Zach redeemed an idol while I was on vacation, so I did not put what he got into the Challenge post. His idol reward was an "advantage in the finale". 

3) Because Zach will be going to camp for the next few weeks, he will be eliminated this week in replacement of a Bottom 2. Tomorrow there will make a story post that explains the deaths of both Bailey and Zach.

4) I have all of the Lingo rounds saved. Let me know if you want to see them posted on the site.

That's all for now. Thanks to all the contestants for finishing all puzzles without needing to go past 9 turns. This challenge went smoother than expected.

Until next time.
