Day 15

	Lataa
	Roger and Ryan are the only two people to be eliminated from the Lataa camp.  The Ulaen camp has lost five:  Deena,  Rob Mariano, Gretchen, Kelly Wiglesworth, and Heidi.  With the unity of the Lataa camp, and their large number, it looks like the final four or five are going to be from these eight.

	Ulaen
	With the loss of Heidi, Greg and Kelly finally notice their mortality in this game.  They realize that their alliance is not large enough to last until the end.  They call a group meeting of the camp, and discuss an alliance between the five of them.  Vecepia agrees to join them.

	This has become a game of randomness and unpredictability.  It is not only surprising that Rob Cesternino is still in the game, after recieving a total of 13 cumulative votes, but shocking that we has disappeared from the radar completely.  Since the psuedoswitch, he only recieved four votes, and has not had to compete in an elimination challenge in either of the past two rounds.
	On the other hand, as part of strategizing, Elisabeth suddenly recieved two votes, and came close to being eliminated from the game herself.  And who would have ever seen Elisabeth in the same alliance with Sean Rector?	

	Salvie Game
	Individual:  The winner will recieve 5 salvies for him/her self.
	Each player is dealt a card.  Whomever has the highest card gets to choose which player to send out of the salvie game.  This process continues until only two people are left, and the high card between the two will decide the winner.

Deal 1:  Sean K  kicks Sean R out of the game.
Deal 2:  Kel kicks Greg out of the game.
Deal 3:  Kel kicks Kelly out of the game.
Deal 4:  Jeanne kicks Vecepia out of the game.
Deal 5:  Robert kicks Rob out of the game.
Deal 6:  Shii Ann kicks JoAnna out of the game.
Deal 7:  Joel kicks Shii Ann out of the game.
Deal 8:  Elisabeth kicks Jeanne out of the game.
Deal 9:  Robert kicks Kel out of the game.

Sean K, Joel, Robert, and Elisabeth are still in the game.
Deal 10:  Joel kicks Elisabeth out of the game.
Deal 11:  Joel kicks Sean K out of the game.

The final 2 are Joel and Robert.  This final game of high card will decide the winner.
Deal 12:  Robert wins 5 salvies.
