the ex-girlFriend at the wedding: (S45: Episode 12)

There are five players left in the game:

Austin, Dee, Jake, Julie and Katurah.

Some league members need a miracle in order to stay in the game, some may just want to play it safe.... Do you have what it takes to be Survivor Vukelulu Season 45's Champ? YOU GOTTA DIG DEEP because your Tribemasters are giving you one final bonus...

Below are three potential options to scoring your Finale Bonus. You may only select one option. Your bonus wager must be submitted to survivorvukelulu@gmail.com by Wednesday, December 20th 7:59:59 PM EST. If you do not submit an emailed prediction or choose not to play the Finale Bonus, you will earn the points you would have earned with no penalties. Late email predictions, however, will not be considered.

• OPTION #1: Make a prediction who you think is going to win it all and become the winner of Season 45! If you guess correctly, you will earn a bonus +15 points. (You do not need to choose your Sole Survivor if you think someone else is going to win).

• OPTION #2: HOWEVER, if you want to double down on your Sole Survivor draft pick, and your Sole Survivor ends up winning, you will earn a bonus +30 points (on TOP of your guaranteed +40 points for any of your picks coming in 1st place AND the +75 points if your Sole Survivor wins).

• OPTION #3: OR do you want to risk it ALL? In order to play this option, you will need to risk all of your standard points during the final episode. If you are able to correctly guess the boot order of the final 5: Jury Member #7, Jury Member #8, 3rd Place, 2nd Place, Winner, you will earn a bonus +250 points!

  • Your email must clearly indicate who you think will be Jury Member #7, Jury Member #8, 3rd Place, 2nd Place, Winner (in that order).

  • NOTE: If even one player is not in the correct boot order, you will lose all points for Episode 13 and earn 0 points for the entire episode. (Don't have any contestants left on your tribe? This option is for you! What's there to lose!?)

Episode 12 recap:

• This was no Rob and Ambuh in the back of a pickup truck watching "Lord of the Flies"....but we still stan!

• I am aware I shouldn't be this upset, but it annoys the hell out of me how expressive and vocal Kellie has been as a member of the jury. Homegirl, you have been eliminated. The show is no longer about you. Stop dragging Kaleb into your unprofessionalism, folllow the rules and simmer down.

VUKELULU HEADING INTO THE FINALE...

Katrina has officially dethroned Tribemaster Brian from his five-week reign at the top! But Amanda S. is still in it -- thanks to her masterfully played advantage, she is keeping the gap really tight. In fact, there are only 10 points separating our top three!

But if last year's Finale Bonus taught us anything, all of this can change. Last season we saw multiple league members score 200+ points in just one episode!

With Drew's elimination, we say a big "the tribe has spoken" to Cristina and Arianna, who are both now down to a tribe of zero. Also should be noted that no one lost their Sole Survivor this week.

More than HALF our leage members still have their soles left in the game! Which is very exciting! Regardless of whoever wins season 45, we will be showering some with their Sole Survivor bonus points!!!

Austin: Amelia, Fo, Leigh, Marietta, Matt S., Mel, Nolan, Emma L.

Dee: Emmy, John, Maggie, Tribemaster Liv

Jake: Angela, Anthony, Elissa, Tommy D.

Julie: DMC

Katurah: Amanda S., Anna, Emily F., Emma W., Grace, Katrina, Peach, Seth

ENJOY the finale! We're both very excited to see how this Finale Bonus plays out. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Good luck to all!

-Tribemasters Liv + Brian
