The Anaconda Trials

The jungle came alive as 40 people gathered for the Anaconda Trials. Shaman Whisper welcomed everyone with words of guidance and a short prayer, setting the tone for the challenges ahead

From there, 25 brave souls stepped forward to face the four trials. The Serpent’s Path tested careful steps along a hidden route in search of treasure.

The Jaws of the River dared challengers to cross unsteady barrels and canoes in crocodile- and anaconda-filled waters to ring the bell.

In the Flight of the Anaconda, players clung to a rope, soaring across the river before releasing at just the right moment to land on the platform.

Finally came the Riddles of the Jungle, where wit was the only way forward—answering two riddles correctly to claim a prize.

When the trials ended, the crowd gathered as one for the Anaconda Dance. Twenty-one joined in, circling, swaying, and celebrating the jungle’s spirit. The night closed with music from Shui, as laughter, drinks, and dancing carried the energy into a true jungle festival.

Finally thanks to everyone that helped out. Kart for being an awesome Anaconda, scaring everyone and adding a lot of atmosphere to the evnent. Atan, Micke and Stella for the rewards, Summer for the decoration, Persephone and especially August for the awesome pictures they took.

Feed the Jungle Friday

This Friday, we went to Gallivant’s Clearing with the Feed the Jungle Initiative, bringing food, coins, and vaccines to those in need. Many came to get help or join the festivities as Micke played guitar, Whisper and Syke gave vaccines, and the rest of us helped with food, coins and dancing.

Naked Wednesday

This Wednesday, we followed our usual ritual bath before diving into a trivia session on the ancient cultures and gods of the Amazon. Goo claimed a decisive victory, while Shui and Micke secured second and third place. To wrap up the evening, we danced to the rhythmic beats of Diana’s drums.

Naked Wednesday – The Butterfly Hunt

This wednesday, nearly 30 of us came together to honor our ancestors. We wandered the jungle, catching butterflies—our tiny messengers to the spirit world—whispering our wishes before placing them in the sacred cage.

After our shaman’s blessing, we released them into the sky, sending our hopes to the ancestors. Sunisa claimed the top spot with the most butterflies caught, followed by Micke in second and Chief Mike of the Jurito in third. We wrapped up the event with music, dancing, and celebration as we often do.

Carnival Flotilla 2025

Once again this year, the tribe helped host the Carnival Flotilla. A total of 16 floats participated, drawing a large crowd of spectators. Three judges—Summer, Leona, and Khaing—interviewed all the participants before selecting their top three, while Diana from the Xoco set the festive mood with lively Carnival music. Kwanita took first place, Micke secured second, and August placed third. Congratulations to the winners!

Mojo Mercenary

The tribe has employees Micke as the Tribe Mercenary, after Sunisa decided her time was better spent protecting the Xoco chieftess’ virginity… So far the decition has been very good and the mojo well protected and in our possession for more than in the past!

Micke in his very effective disguise.
