Notes

1. The challenge was a right to merge challenge. The winners were guaranteed a spot on the merged tribe.
2. Rosanna got the most votes, but Niina decided to give up due to Mental issues. Because of this, Rosanna received the Black vote at the next Tribal Council, which means she has an extra vote waiting for her in the urn.
3. Sonja played a lucky key on herself, as a result she was allowed to take one vote off any votes that were cast against her at that tribal council.
4. Tytti played an immunity amulet, therefore six votes against her were not counted.
5. Alina played a lucky key on herself, as a result she was allowed to take one vote off any votes that were cast against her at that tribal council.
6. Kipa played a lucky key on herself, as a result she was allowed to take one vote off of any votes that were cast against her at that tribal council.
7. Riitta-Liisa played a lucky key on herself, as result she was allowed to take one vote off of any votes that were cast against her.
8. As Sonja finished last in the reward challenge, she had to compete in a duel at tribal council against the player who received the most votes.
9. This player used an extra vote advantage, allowing them to cast two ballots during a single vote.
