Elimination 1
Sambang lost the immunity challenge:

Unfortunately there was no tribal council, but the team got one day to to decide which of them would leave. They decided to all write down a name on a piece of paper, but we never got to see who wrote down which name. But two players said in later episodes who they voted for: HiuKwan voted for Hicham and Prince voted for HiuKwan.

The results of the first voting (known because the pieces of paper were read on camera, but without revealing who voted for who):

Claudia = 1
Geert T = 0
Hicham = 1
HiuKwan = 2 (with two capitals )
Marleen = 3
Prince = 0
Sarah = 0
Wim = 1

Wim was probably the second vote for HiuKwan (I read an interview in which he said he really didn’t get along with her and wanted to vote for her every tribal council), but there is no official confirmation.

EDIT: These were the full results (supplied by HiuKwan):
Hicham voted for HiuKwan
Sarah voted for Marleen
Marleen voted for Wim
Geert T voted for Marleen
Wim voted for Marleen
Prince voted for HiuKwan
Claudia voted for Claudia
HiuKwan voted for Hicham
For some reason Claudia voted for herself.

 
Elimination 2
Uma lost the immunity challenge.

Everybody voted for Dirk, except Dirk (voted for Mano) and Geert D (voted for Hannie)
 

Elimination 3

Sambang lost the immunity challenge.

Unfortunately, once again, not the full votes are known. We do know however that Claudia and Geert T voted for Hicham and that Hicham and HiuKwan voted for Claudia. If I had to guess, I’d say Sarah also voted for Hicham and Prince & Wim voted for Claudia (who was eliminated 4-3), but I am not 100% sure.
 

Elimination 4
Uma lost the immunity challenge.

Two groups were formed: Geert D, Kyra & Sharon made an alliance and voted for Hannie, while Hannie, Yin & Hans voted for Geert D. Hannie had to leave because of past votes against (the one vote Geert D casted in elimination 2).
 

Elimination 5
Sambang lost the immunity challenge.

Wim was voted out unanimously by Geert T/HiuKwan/Prince/Sarah, he himself voted for HiuKwan.

Elimination 6
Prince got eliminated in a 5-4 vote. All of former Uma (Geert D, Yin, Kyra, Sharon & Hans) voted for Prince (which caused loads of drama because Prince was – by far – the #1 favorite to win the show by the other candidates, the production and the viewers). All of former
Sambang (Prince, HiuKwan, Sarah & Geert T) voted for Geert D.

HiuKwan won individual immunity. Strangely enough, the host specifically said this was NOT the merge, however, there was an individual immunity challenge, both tribes lived together on one beach and they voted together. I’m not really sure why this wasn’t the merge, but the host specifically said a couple of times that it was not the merge? (maybe there will be a twist next episode).

Elimination 7
This time it was Geert D who had to leave. Yin/Hans joined former Sambang and voted their former tribe mate out:

Geert D = 5 (HiuKwan, Sarah, Geert T, Hans, Yin)
Geert T = 3 (Geert D, Sharon, Kyra)

Immunity was won by Yin and Hans found a hidden immunity idol, but chose not to use it yet.

There was a merge now, but I am not sure what the name of the merged tribe is as I missed the first half of the episode.

Eliminations 8, 9 & 10 are missing

Elimination 11
The results of the lastest episode:

HiuKwan = 2 (Yin, Hans)
Geert T = 2 (HiuKwan, Sharon)
Sharon = 1 (Geert T)
(Hans had immunity again)

At the previous tribal council (where Sarah got eliminated), HiuKwan let out all the dirt. This upset Yin & Hans, who then decided that HiuKwan should be the next one out. Both were gonna vote for her, while Geert T would vote for Sharon (as he made an agreement with his former team not to vote for any of them, so he couldn’t vote for HiuKwan, and he has an alliance with Yin & Hans).

The next part of the episode was about HiuKwan sobbing about this news, until she suddenly realized she had a chance: if she and Sharon join together, they can vote out Geert T. Because Geert T has three previous votes against and HiuKwan had none, Geert T had to leave. He took this news by staring in disbelieve for about ten minutes before he realized the game was over, which was quite hilarious.

Now it’s Yin & Hans vs. Sharon & HiuKwan for the next episode. Could be interesting.

Elimination 12 is missing

Elimination 13
The final three were Hans, HiuKwan & Yin. They competed in an endurance challenge and the winner would automatically qualify for the final two. Hans was the first to loose, an hour later by HiuKwan. So Yin was the first finalist.

The second challenge was between Hans & HiuKwan and was a survival-based challenge, a puzzle and how well you know your former tribe-mates challenge combined in one. It was an extremely close match and right before the winner was announced, the episode stopped.

The Final
So the episode of tonight continued where it stopped last week: the last part of the challenge between HiuKwan and Hans. It seemed like HiuKwan was going to win as she had a big advantage over Hans, but blew it all in the last minutes by panicking, so Hans could get past her and win the challenge. At that moment all people watching switched off their tv as the big favorite HiuKwan was eliminated and the two most hated participants made the final two: Yin & Hans.

Both took part in the final tribal council, where they had to answer questions about how they played the game. The tribal council got really ugly: the jury (consisting of Geert D, Kyra, Sarah, Geert T, Sharon & HiuKwan) was really upset these two made the final and made it clear they thought none of them deserved to win the game. But the hosts forced them to vote, so they did. The result was this:

Geert D: ???? (not sure, but most likely Yin)
Kyra: Hans
Sarah: Yin
Geert T: ???? (not sure, but most likely Hans)
Sharon: Yin
HiuKwan: Hans

So the result was 3-3. A tie.

Both Yin & Hans had won an extra vote. Yin had won a challenge with which she won a positive vote for her in the finals and Hans had his Hidden Immunity Idol, which he switched this for a positive vote in the finals as well. Had HiuKwan made the finals, there would have been an uneven number of votes (six jury members + extra vote either Yin/Hans had).

Later, in the reunion show it was announced that five of the six jury members (all except Geert T) made an agreement to force a tie. They didn’t want to decide who was the winner as they all disliked Yin and Hans so much. HiuKwan said that the producers should find a way to decide the winner, they didn’t want to have anything to do with it anymore.

So the producers did: they asked originally 100 former candidates to come to the tv-studios and vote for who they thought should win. For some reason, it was later announced that only 81 votes would be cast. I don’t have a full overview of the people who voted (unfortunately). I do know the following people were at the show: Derek (ER3), Björn (ER4), Ernestine, Frank (ER5), John, Marnix, Marleen, Douwe (ER6), Koen (ER8), Frans, Frits, Bruno & Vinnie (ER9). All the pre-merge eliminees from ER10 were there as well, but I don’t know if they voted.

Out of these 81 votes, 7 were declared invalid (probably because they voted for HiuKwan). So 74 votes were left, who went this way:

Hans: 16 votes
Yin: 58 votes

So Yin was the winner. Right after the announcement they cut the show of and showed a memorial for Ernst-Paul, the host who passed away. As if they did not want to give Yin & Hans more attention. Yin probably won because she was a bit more down to earth and said luck was a big factor in her making the final two. I never thought she would win, as she also said that she thought Hans would make a better winner than herself. Hans probably lost because he was extremely arrogant in the final and didn’t want to apologize for what he did.
