We've come a long way, haven't we, SmackDowners? You've all written some pretty kickass stories so far, and you've all put a part of yourselves into ol' SD:MMR. So thank you for that, and I hope you're having at least a little bit of fun.
Let's welcome back elveloy, coming on in from Exile.
elveloy, used to living in the harsh, unforgiving lands of Australia, found her Exile experience to be a cakewalk. She'd gotten in a lot of reading and writing time, had even trained a snake to give her a pedicure, and now intends to take some ass and kick some names.
Well, elveloy, how was it?
"Pleasant. It's always a joy to receive a free, all-inclusive vacation," elveloy says.
I hear that, yo. And now let's welcome back bloodsword and AllanFisher, who—in a surprising twist—are both coming back from Redemption Island because I dun fucked up in not having a maximum word count for the third duel.
Welcome to The Merge, SmackDowners. And also the Final Six!
Ready to kick some asshole? Drop those buffs and put on these nice, clean, new ones. Your new name is Hermaphrodudecoreity, but at this point it's irrelevant.

Prompts will be down at the bottom of this part.
Word count is: 3,500–4,000 words.
Due to the twist in allowing two back from Redemption, there will be two losers here—the two lowest-scoring people—and they will both be eliminated.
As usual, submit your stories to mikemarsbergen@hotmail.com in .doc or .docx form.
The deadline for this round will be September 9th at 6:30 PM EST/10:30 PM UTC.

This round is called "The Merge" for more than one reason. Yeah, the tribes have merged, and that's cool, but the cooler meaning is the following:
