Okay, this challenge is perfect for our herd! Human's inactivity means nothing! Sweet.
Right now, every herd is going to target Austur and a strong player (since all 4 Austurs seem pretty strong) will be eliminated early. Perfect! Of the 4, I imagine that Sea Turtle will be the next to go and receive 15th.
In order to guarantee that result, I contacted the Vindurs with an alliance idea where we would target the Austurs first and the Eldurs next. It was difficult for me to choose the Vindurs over the Eldurs to ally with, since we functionally only have three players because Human is still not here. That means the Vindurs could outnumber us later on, while the Eldurs would be equal in numbers with us. However, I still went with it, and we'll see how it goes. The alliance may end up being totally unnecessary, because with the challenge rules, Arctic Fox (Eldur) and I could probably eliminate the Austurs all by ourself if Arctic Fox stays online and votes consistently against Austur. We'll see what happens. Either way, the Vindurs know who I am and they know that I am playing the game. Hopefully, that will work in my favor down the line.
My one problem with the challenge though is I don't want to eliminate the Austurs single-handedly because that puts a huge target on my back. It'll be tricky to navigate this... but hopefully, everyone else is so threatened by the Austurs that every animal will go for them first.
