Last time on The Radish Reunion Comp, we merged the four teams into two based on the colors each contestant chose. Their next challenge was to create another team name and picture, and both were very good. In the end we decided Santa's High Hoes won and got to vote one of the losing team members out. But, there was a tie between Jimmie and Dark, so the losing team got to break the tie by voting between the two of them. A Vote Turnaround caused Jimmie to be eliminated, and he revealed that he had been behind The Chosen Ones the whole time and that they were fake. But then, a new enemy called The Resistance appeared in the public confessions. What dramatic drama will occur today? Find out right now, on The Radish Reunion Comp!

Right after Jimmie's elimination and before the wheel spins and anonymous public confessions, there was a huge twist that nobody saw coming.

Thomas and Rebel are now competitors.

The two of them have been stripped of their cohost duties and permissions and have been thrown into the game as regular contestants for the foreseeable future. I flipped a coin to see which team the two of them would be on. Rebel joined Santa's High Hoes, and Thomas joined The Unified Imposters of Radish Land.

As soon as the two of them joined, they immediately began stirring up chaos. They created alliances, struck fear into the contestants' hearts, and did many confessions.

The other competitors seemed happy to have Rebel and Thomas on their teams, but some were secretly afraid, as Thomas and Rebel are arguably the strongest competitors in the game.

Rebel publicly asked her team if anyone wanted to join an alliance with her, and created a Radish Rebellion alliance with several of her team members. She and Thomas then created a "I hate women" alliance, and Thomas sent a public confession saying anyone was welcome to join. Several contestants joined from both teams, including Rymle, Aj, and some others.

The next challenge was a new idea that I was really proud of. But the teams finished it so fast that my pride was ruined. Let me explain what happened.

The challenge was a mix of Find the Comment, the Wattpad Scavenger Hunt, and Unscramble the Sentence. Basically, I gave each team a clue to find a comment in a certain place. That comment gave them a word and the next clue, and so on and so on. Once they found all 12 clues and words, the teams could unscramble their sentence and submit it to me. This challenge was not based on speed, but rather graded by how well the teams worked together. There were two different scavenger hunts (one for each team) with different clues and different words, but they were in similar locations, so if one team accidentally found a clue for the other team's hunt, they could be led onto the wrong path.

Here are the clues and answers that Rebel's team, Santa's High Hoes, received:

1. Find the comment on the review of the movie that Rebel recommended Todd watch in the past 6 months. (Megan is Missing)
2. Find the comment on the chapter where Rebel overthrew Todd. (Radish's Kik Comps [5] Challenge 10)

The teams had 48 hours to complete the challenge, so I told them to take their time and reminded them it was not a speed challenge. But neither team listened to me, and they got right to work.

On Santa's High Hoes, the team members were upset with their first clue because it meant sifting through a ton of movie reviews again. But then I reminded them Rebel is on their team, and she showed up and told them exactly which movie review to look for. They found the next clue within ten minutes, and moved right on to the next one.

In the next hour, Rebel, Luna, Anna, Somus, Andrew, Collin, Kidd, and Rymle worked together to find all of the clues. Rebel was able to guess the sentence when they were still missing four words, but they had to wait to find all the words before they could submit their sentence. Santa's High Hoes correctly put together their sentence about two hours after the challenge began.

On The Unified Imposters of Radish Land, Thomas immediately went to work on the challenge instead of working at his job, which is where he was at the time. He found the first three clues in under ten minutes, and then told the rest of his team to finish it. As soon as Glitch started to help, he found the wrong comment and accidentally set them on the path of Santa's High Hoes' scavenger hunt. Their team was stumped for about twenty minutes because the clue was a Rebel-specific question, but then Thomas came back and realized Glitch found the wrong comment. He found the right one and set them back onto the right track.

Over the next thirty minutes, Thomas, Glitch, Alvin, and Dark worked together to find most of the rest of the clues. They took a break for about an hour and a half when they only needed two more words because they wanted more of their teammates to help find clues. Aj came online about 3 hours after the challenge started and found the second to last clue, and Thomas texted me for the last clue about 4 hours after the challenge started. Like Rebel, he was able to guess what the sentence was going to say before he even had all the words, and told his team immediately after they found all the clues. They put their sentence together about 4 hours after the challenge began.

The sentence that Rebel's team created was "Thomas is my favorite best friend because I have known him longer."

The sentence that Thomas's team created was "Rebel is my favorite best friend because I've met her in person."

lol

I decided to end the challenge early since both teams finished so quickly. I also gave them an opportunity to earn some Radish Points by giving them the other team's hunt to see if they could finish that. Both teams were able to complete these very easily as well.

In the end, I gave the win to Santa's High Hoes because 8/12 of their members worked on the hunt, while only 5/9 of UIRL worked on their hunt. This time, every current contestant got to vote for someone on UIRL to be eliminated.

During voting time we received these public confessions:

Alliance battle time? I hope so.

Back to elimination. In the end, Aj had the most votes. But he was safe. Why? Because I eliminated Rebel and Thomas for annoying me (actually it was because they were only competing for one challenge but still).

Rebel was eliminated.

Thanks for participating, Rebel and Thomas! The two of them are now back to being cohosts.

The competitors were a bit confused by this move, some saying it was pointless for any of them to even vote if I was just gonna eliminate those two. But to that, my answer is: chaos.

Aj was lucky that this happened, because if it hadn't he would've been eliminated. Darn

We also spun the wheels again. Collin spun the wheel of fortune and received a Minus One Vote. Leo spun the wheel of misfortune and the total of votes for him will be doubled next time he is up for elimination (the thing that happened to Kelsey a couple challenges ago). Uh oh

Confessions:
Rebel: 28
Thomas: 5
Luna: 3

Lol it's the same as last time

Nineteen contestants still remain. What more do I have in store for the competitors? Will there really be a battle of alliances? Will Aj and Leo survive the next elimination? And are Rebel and Thomas cohosting again for good, or will they return as competitors someday? 👀 Find out next time, on The Radish Reunion Comp!
