The challenge debuted as the only Immunity Challenge after the tribe swap on Day 22. With the scores tied at 10-10, the tribes were asked a tiebreaker question, where they had to list the first castaways voted out in the first seven seasons. The new Chapera incorrectly answered the first boot of Pearl Islands, while the new Mogo Mogo got all the answers right, winning immunity.
In Micronesia, the challenge was played for reward, with the first person to correctly answer four questions winning. Erik Reichenbach answered "which was the first season to divide the castawaysbetweenfourtribes?" correctly, winning the challenge.
This challenge has only appeared in seasons featuring returning players.
