Challenge 2: Mars Quiz

In this challenge the cast offs were asked to write down answers to a series of questions regarding Mars. The cast offs revealed their answers at the same time. A wrong answer resulted in elimination. Play proceeded until we got down to the last player. It only took 5 questions.

Face on Mars Challenge Results.

After just over an hour of stumbling around the rocky terrain in their awkward EVA suits the mask was found by Joe Jonas, winning the 'Face on Mars' Challenge.

Even before they got back to base, the other cast offs were already trying to persuade Joe about who he should condemn to spending 24 hours inside their EVA suit. Joe's clique of Reese, Rachel, and tag-along Michael Vick seem to be urging him to pick Ann Coulter, who Rachel describes and 'Bitcho!'

Dr. Phil chimed in, suggesting Ann as well, just to give the group a break from her negative energy. He also suggested pal Glenn Beck, who he referred to as a 'wet blanket on a cold night'. In inadvertently, Dr. Phil had his comm link on broadcast, and that comment went out to everyone instead of just Joe.

Which made Elisabeth suggest he punish Dr. Phil for turning on Glenn.

Miley and Levi stayed out of things and kept to themselves, (nudge nudge wink wink) even sharing their freeze dried Salisbury steak with each other.

After dinner, Joe made his decision, and Ann Coulter is spending 24 hours in her EVA suit.

Face on Mars Challenge

Today the castaways face their first challenge, 'Face on Mars'. Each person will don their EVA suit and head out into the Martian landscape. They will be looking for a mask, or 'face', that has been placed somewhere outside the S.O.M. Base module. The person who finds it wins the challenge.

And because this is 'Strand on Mars', instead of getting a real reward, the winner will choose who receives the punishment.

The winner chooses which other castaway has to spend the next 24 hours in their EVA suit. It's bulky and uncomfortable.
