Re: Survivor: Mafia [Night 3]

Episode 4: “Maybe They'll All be Crushed by a Piano”


Slightly exhausted, the tribe sauntered back to camp, ready to enjoy their first real night away from tribal.

"I kinda miss Scotty Probst," Sorsha said longingly.

"What? I don't miss Mr. Hostman," belittled Epi, "or his stinky groundhog."

"I wonder who they're voting off over there?" LC asked.

Just then, notsawyer ran back into camp with Treemail. "I know who got voted out, guys!"

Spoiler: show
DrWilgy was voted out.

He was the Student:
Image
Student, originally from Season 11's Guatemala.

She describes herself as enthusiastic, driven and intelligent, a great problem solver and a creative thinker. Her hobbies include skiing, traveling and playing Frisbee with her dog, Toast, who is half golden retriever, half border collie.

If the Student or Teacher ever votes for the other in Tribal Council, they will gain permanent BTSC, provided they are on the same team and neither is eliminated.
Once in the game, she may add herself as a winner to any Reward Challenge: this must be done before the end of day- this does not apply to the entire tribe if her tribe loses the challenge nor can this be applied at the Survivor Auction.

As long as Teacher is on a different tribe, or is eliminated, Student gains the following ability:
???

Your starting wellness levels are as follows:
24 Energy, 10 Thirst, and 10 Hunger.
************************************************************************************************************************
But the tribe didn't get too comfy, because Scotty Probst was seen jetskiing around the inlet.

"What is he doing here?" eyed SVS.

"I heard y'all missed me! So here I am!



And drop your buffs."
The tribes have been shuffled.
Elohcin, LoRab, insertnamehere, and DharmaHelper have been sent to Atamai to join SVS, Quin, and DF starting immediately.
Long Con, notsawyer540, Sorsha and Epignosis have been sent to Mamana to join Opt_Outside, speedchuck, and Golden.
It is now Day 4. Day will end in 24 hours at Midnight, EST.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 3]

"C-C-C-COMBOOOOOOO"
Another day, another challenge, another virus.

Another virus? What the shit?

It seems that the rice wasn't fully cooked or something, because some, if not most of the tribe was reeling from a bad case of food poisoning. What horrid luck!

Around camp, the tribe still persevered.
DF poked the fire that was started last night, thanks to their flint.
Quin retrieved more water for the tribe, fulfilling another day of quenched thirst.
SVS, Sorsha and Long Con went out on a fishing expedition, bringing back 2, 3, and 3 fish, respectively. Thank goodness that fire was lit today!
While camp went about their chores, Epi and notsawyer went exploring around the island.

At the challenge, the players were designated to set up in bouts of mud wrestling with pads. Players strategized the best way to go about it, and decided to send their strongest first.
OptOut for Mamana and LC for Atamai. An imposing matchup. Both went at it fast and loose early, and seemed pretty evenly matched. LC never slowed down, however, and kept pummeling OptOut until she was inches from the edge. OptOut pushed right back with a low jab to trip up Long Con. As Long Con fell, he whipped one last high attack and barely knicked OptOut, making her lose her balance. Both combatants fell into the mud, but OptOut fell first. That was a close match. Atamai was up 1.
Next came SVS and INH. INH immediately swung high and caught SVS in the upper lip. It was all downhill for her, as she was pushed out rather suddenly. Score for Mamana! It was tied 1-1
speedchuck and Sorsha was a more measured fight. No one seemed to really have the edge, and no one was really landing any hits. After an exhausting bout, speedchuck swung low for a last attack, and Sorsha deftly stepped out of the way for speedchuck to fall into the mud.Atamai was up 2-1.
But that didn't stop LoRab from unleashing her fury on a stupefied DF. DF fell into the mud in dirty defeat. Tied again, 2-2.
DH put on his crown and stepped up to Quin. The arena was quite covered in mud at this point. DH covered himself in excess mud to appear more imposing. He was not more imposing. Without warning, Quin lunged at DH and pushed him back-first into the mud. Atamai is up 3-2! One more would win it!
Wilgy knew it was up to him to salvage the fight, up against notsawyer. But notsawyer had other plans. He took a few hits from wilgy right off, but Wilgy became worn down and while he gave it his all, it wasn't enough. He slipped and fell face first in the mud.
Atamai scores their 4th point and WINS THE CHALLENGE!

Atamai wins immunity, and will be safe from the vote tonight. They also won the reward offered yesterday in the form of fishing gear. Use it well, fellas!

It is now Night 3. Night will end at Midnight, EST.

Nope! I will randomly slot him in if the order if there are still 2 slots left, and, if it gets to him, he will lose 3 energy and automatically lose. Unless the opponent also neglects to send in actions.

But that's not going to happen because I currently have all the actions waiting from the other team.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Night 2]

[center]Challenge #3: Getting Dirty [Strength][/center]
7 v 7 Team IMMUNITY AND REWARD challenge
Image
Players square off against another randomly assigned player on the other team to push the other person off the arena into the mud.

Players are given 8 actions- 2 “Hit Lows”, 2 “Hit Highs”, and 4 “Blocks”. Both players will use all 8 actions in whichever order they wish by WRITING IN THREAD and BOLDING your choices. The order and combination of actions dictate the quality of hits.

If a player:
-blocks while the other person hits high/hits low, the attacker rolls a d2.
-hits low while the other player hits high, both players roll a d8.
-hits high while the other player hits high or hits low while the other player hits low, both players roll a d6
-blocks while the other player blocks, both players get 0.

First player to get to 20 points, or whoever has the highest total after using all 8 actions, will knock the other player off the arena (If both players reach/exceed 20 in the same round, win goes to higher number).

First team to reach 4 knock-outs wins immunity for their tribe as well as reward of fishing gear!

**Note that all players will lose 3 energy for participating in this challenge. If a player does not send in actions in a match-up, the opponent wins the knock-out. If neither sends in actions, host will roll for winner.

To sign up, please WRITE IN-THREAD that you wish to participate.

The battle event will be revealed at end of day, and will proceed in the order that people sign up. Once people start signing up, I will edit this post with the matchups.

1. Long Con vs Opt_Outside
2. SVS vs INH
3. Sorsha vs speedchuck
4. DF vs LoRab
5. Quin vs DH
6. notsawyer vs DrWilgy
7. Epignosis vs Golden

Good luck!

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Night 2]

Episode 3: “I Won't Take it Personally”

“Hi folks!” screamed Scotty Probst, “Welcome to tribal again! Guess you just couldn't get enough of me and my marmot!"

In the darkness, a marmot flew through the air dashing for various bugs.

"Anyway, it's time to vote out another of your own," Probst gestured to his audience.

One by one, the tribe walked up to the confession booth and wrote down a name of a player. After the last person went through the portal, Probst excused himself and dove headfirst into a hole in the ground. The tribe looked stunned. A few seconds later, he emerged from the dias in the back with a jar of votes as if nothing had happened.

“Wow! That was amazing!” hollered MP.

“I know. I know. Now…if anyone has the hidden immunity idol and wishes to play it, you may do so now.”

No one moved.

“Ok. Once the votes are read, the decision will be made and the person will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I’ll read the votes.

1st vote:

2nd vote:

"That's 4. While that's not exactly majority, no one else voted, so in this case it was.

MP, the tribe has spoken." No sooner had the words left Probst's mouth that a buzzing was heard in the distance. In no time at all, a swarm of locusts came and completely devoured a screaming MovingPictures07 where he sat in his seat.

"One thing you have to do to win Survivor: Mafia," started Scotty Probst, "is survive. Everyone have a good night."

Spoiler: show
MP was the Teacher:

Teacher, originally from Season 23's South Pacific.

She describes herself as driven, positive and enthusiastic. Her favorite hobbies include swimming with her kids, writing/blogging and baking bread.

If the Student or Teacher ever votes for the other in Tribal Council, they will gain permanent BTSC, provided they are on the same team and neither is eliminated.
Teacher provides an analysis every night in the form of tree-mail.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 2]

"Let’s Just Hope They’re the Marks”
Traipsing back to camp after tribal, it was clear Atamai was in it to win it. Voting out sig seemed to be the best option for tribe unity.

“I didn’t even know he was on the tribe! He was out drinking all day and night with the gorillas in the jungle,” bemoaned notsawyer.

“Don’t talk to me about gorillas,” smirked Epi.

The next day at camp, the tribe went about trying to correct their mistakes from the day prior.
DF stared longingly at some bamboo shoots for a while, and, channeling his inner Frank Lloyd Wright, built a structure with the insight of notsawyer and Epignosis that rivaled even the most premium cat scratching post.
Sorsha retrieved more water for the tribe, fulfilling another day of quenched thirst.
The fire pit lay in a ruinous heap, however, even though LC tried his darndest. This would have made it easier to cook the food that SVS and MP brought back from fishing. They came back with 1 fish for themselves.

Treemail was left ominously empty today. The tribe would learn that there would be no immunity challenge for either tribe, and both would have to go to Tribal Council.

“Well, could be worse, I suppose,” said LC in between a rousing verse of ‘Call Me Maybe’ on his harmonica, “At least they lose someone tonight too.”

The challenge was a form of the Prisoners dilemma, which luckily was written out for them on a scroll Epi found in a bottle washed up on shore. “How convenient,” said the viewer, “I knew this show was fucking scripted!”

The challenge could accumulate food for the tribe even if they lost. As a basis, the group went through several strategies before determining that they wanted to punish the other team more than anything.

At the challenge, the players all lined up against one another and went in order to the bucket. First came Quin and Boomslang. Quin dropped in a black rock, and so did Boomslang.
Sorsha and OptOut went toe to toe. Black and black- clunk clunk.
SVS and Wilgy created a show of throwing their rocks from afar- both black, of course.
LC and DH both went up to the bucket confidently, started to drop a colored rock in, and then both suddenly changed their minds and dropped the other one instead. Black across the board. It was seeming like no one would win this reward.
Epi and INH extended their fists. And released. Black and black.
Notsawyer and Elo went in, after Elo placed hers in, notsawyer grinned and placed his in, thinking he had the upper hand. Nope. Black rocks.
MP and speedchuck had what was supposed to be a pleasant gentleman’s handshake, then after revealing rocks, MP broke into some weird form of breakdance in victory. But that was short-lived because they, too, tied with black rocks.
Quin went up again, and this time with LoRab. Not wanting to spoil his double participation, Quin looked for a point this time, and got...nothing. 2 black rocks.
Last but not least was DF and Golden. Looked to be more of the same...
and it was. At the very last second, DF changed his mind to a black rock to match Golden's. It was a stalemate.

No one wins the challenge, food, or the reward
But the tribes will not go back to camp empty handed. I will give each tribe a one-use flint to use tomorrow.

It is now Night 2. You have 24 hours to vote someone out at Tribal Council. Night will end at Midnight, CST. (Because of course I’m back on CST for a couple days)

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Night 1]

Challenge #2: Let’s Rock [Willpower]

Team REWARD, no immunity
Image
Directions for today's challenge:

One random player will have to go twice today for Atamai. I have randomly drawn for this person and it is Quin.

For each round, one player will square off against a player on the other team. Players are playing for cumulative rewards- you leave with what you win.

Each player is given 2 rocks- yellow and black- to choose from and place in a bucket. The yellow rock stands for unity and sharing, while the black rock stands for opportunism and selfishness. Players PM the host (or post in their team thread) which rock they wish to place in the bucket.

If a player places a black rock in the bucket while the opponent places a yellow rock in the bucket, the player with the black rock receives 1 point as well as +1 food for him/herself and the player with the yellow rock receives nothing. If both players place their yellow rock in the bucket, both players will return with +1 food for each other person on the tribe (but not themselves), and both will score a point. If both players place their black rock in the bucket, they receive nothing, and score no points for their team. If you do not submit a PM in time, you forfeit your turn, and point automatically goes to the opponent. If neither PM me, neither get a point. 

The team with the most points wins fishing gear.
If neither team scores a point, no team will win reward; if both teams become tied with 1 or more points, I will toss a coin for winner. Either way, players leave with any acquired food from the challenge.

Note: you may not share the food you receive in this challenge.

I have drawn for matchups:

DFaraday   v   Golden
Quin          v   Boomslang
Sorsha       v   Opt_Outside
SVS         v    DrWilgy
Long Con   v  DharmaHelper
Epignosis   v   insertnamehere
not sawyer  v   Elo
MP          v     speedchuck
Quin       v     LoRab

Please PM me your choice of rock.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Night 1]

Episode 2: “Trim the Fat”
Reeling from their tough loss in the challenge, the Atamai tribe tried to wrap their heads around what went wrong.

“I felt like we still did a good job,” LC said wistfully, “Well…most of us anyway. I know I’m pulling my weight.”

“Well maybe if you didn’t have so much weight to pull, we could have finished first!” notsawyer bustled.

Epi chortled softly to himself. LC gave him a glare. Wilgy, after washing off his bioflorescent warpaint from the challenge, wrung his hands in protest. “I don’t want to vote anyone off.”

“Well, we gotta do something,” sighed Sorsha.

The castaways grabbed their torches and personal belongings and coconuts and headed to the tribal council chamber to await their fate. As they settled in, Scotty Probst himself parachuted in under the blackness of night, plopping down on the dias next to the dimly lit fire.

“Hi folks!” Scotty Probst, “Welcome to tribal! It’s time to get down to the vote. Are you all ready?”

“I guess we-“ “Great!” interrupted Probst while scarfing down handfuls of caffeine pills, “let’s get started!”

One by one, the tribe walked up to the confession booth and wrote down a name of a player. After the last person went through the portal, Probst pulled out a small curtain, and, while smiling at the camera with his eyes, pulled the jar of votes out from under the curtain.

“Wow! That was amazing!” hollered MP.

“I know. Now…if anyone has the hidden immunity idol and wishes to play it, you may do so now.”

The tribe warily looked around at each other. At the last second, sig stood up.
But no one noticed because they barely knew he was there, so he sat back down in sordid protest.

“Ok. Once the votes are read, the decision will be made and the person will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I’ll read the votes.

As long as Engineer is in the game, ?????
Once in the game, Engineer can change her challenge advantage; this must be made clear by PMing the host at some point during the day of the challenge, and will remain in effect for the rest of the game.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

"Trying to Get My Brain Around the Instructions"
Image
After getting acclimated to each other and the gleefully working together, the tribe got to work on the place.

Quin tried to start a fire, but it failed. Bad luck, that.
LC attempted to build a shelter, but it was too complicated by himself. If only he had help. The team will have to work without a shelter tonight it seems.
Notsawyer and SVS went off to fetch water and came back with some!
Sorsha and Epi went fishing, but only found enough fish for themselves.

After a rather disheartening day, the tribe looked at the immunity challenge before them. At the same time, the other tribe, Mamana, showed up at the challenge beach.

"None of you pansies will stand in our way!" Screamed DH. Epi just scoffed. "You won't be standing when we're done with you." The crowd nodded their assent and sent out their best people for the tasks before them: Wilgy and MP facing off on untying the bag of balls. Both opened their bags easily. Wilgy then skittered off into the brush to play with a caterpillar.

Then came the Hoop Shooting. The girl trio of LoRab, OptOut and Elo step up with jerseys and attitude. All 3 took turns flinging heavy balls one after another into the hoop like it was a child homing in on presents during Christmas. High fiving all around, SVS stepped up with a bag of light balls and fired a metric shit ton back to back until there was one left. Quin came straight in with the last basket and looked back at Mamana as if he didn't just lift a ball eight times his weight.

The next leg was the Puzzle solving. DH and DFaraday, respectively, gave it their best. While DF settled down and had a small nap, DH ran into some roadblocks with the host under some sort of miscommunication. After a time, he then bowed out and asked someone else to try. Golden valiantly stepped in and solved it, ready to keep going.

And keep going he did. Right up along to the 4th challenge, where he ran alongside INH, speedchuck, and Boomslang exerting quite a lot of willpower. In the background, Epi, LC, notsawyer and Sorsha tried to keep up. But it seemed the hole that napping DF left was too long of a gap, and the other team was just firing on all of its cylinders.

Mamana wins immunity. Atamai, I got nothing for ya.
It is now Night 1. See you at tribal, where you will vote out a player from your tribe.

Night 1 ends in 23 hours at midnight, EST.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

Phase will end in a little over an hour.

Also a reminder to send me names in the next hour for potential BTSC during the night phase! I don't have very many.

Long Con wrote:What's going on with the 4th leg? Is notsawyer assumed to have gone along with the plan? Are things okay?
Currently he is still tied to the willpower portions, but I will place him with the majority of Level 1 Option A and Level 2 Option B if no one else changes their decision.

Both team are currently racing to complete the relay in the 4th leg! Who will it be??

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

DF gingerly walked up to the Dias to work on the water puzzle. After staring intently at the various containers of water and a nice nap, he finally finished the puzzle! LEG 3 COMPLETED.

Currently on leg 4, i have noted that LC and Sorsha are working towards a Level 1 Option B and a Level 2 Option A.
Notsawyer wants to go the Level 1 Option A and both he and Epi want to go the Level 2 Option B route.

I need a concensus from all 4 to go the same route or else I am picking for you.

Quin wrote:hello my friend. I'm going to shoot some balls. If I throw five heavy balls and i get the 8th ball on the 2nd try, i imagine i won't have to throw the last three, right?
If you choose to throw balls, please hold your choice of ball and how many you would like to throw before I respond.

So, we need Sorsha, Long Con, notsawyer, and Epi to all choose 1a OR 1b... and choose 2a OR 2b?
This is the correct interpretation of my apparently awful syntax.

You all must do the same 2 options together, whether that be A or B on both levels. One person can't do an option by themself, because that's inherently impossible.

The four players performing in leg 4 are notsawyer, Long Con, Sorsha and Epi.

Currently 1/4 have chosen to do Part 1, Option A. This needs 3 more confirmations.
Currently 2/4 have chosen to do Part 2, Option A
Currently 1/4 has chosen to do Part 2, Option B.

You all must agree on which option you will take. You all are completing both parts of this leg.

Mr. Gorilla man is probably going to be attempting to solve the riddle.

Mr. Host man, you said there's a timer for the riddle. Would you tell me how much time is allowed for that challenge?
The time begins when I send the puzzle at a preagreed time. The time ends when you send me back the answer.

Great. If 2 more people join this leg and agree upon the same options, then I'll run it through the simulation.

Looking at the players list, I am going to guess that there is someone more nimble than I on it. So I am going to go for task #2.

Choosing to be Person 1 on Task #2, I am going to shoot 28 light balls.

So if there is a flaw in my reasoning re how to achieve this, we can course correct on Persons #2 and #3.
SVS dives head first into the shooting challenge without waiting for anyone else. She hedges her bets with the bucket of light balls. Her first shot careens way off target, but that doesn't deter her from shooting. She sinks one, and then another, and then 5 more. She shoots 28 times at an inhumanely quick speed, and manages to make 7 baskets all by herself! She pats herself on the back for making it look easy.
1 Hoop remains in leg 2.

S~V~S wrote:Scotty is in the building.

@Scotty~ is there a limit to the number of balls we can shoot overall and per person in each weight category?
The only limit when shooting balls is your energy. If your energy to be expended, then you would not have the option of shooting balls that expend energy.

And you may vary the size of the ball you shoot with.

I also will ask so that there is no discrepancy between a "proposition" and a "decision" you BOLD your shots so I know what you have decided. I also ask that you bold your decision on leg 4, once you have 4 people performing on that leg.

Quin wrote:How does this work in terms of timing, Scotty? Does the entire tribe need to be here at once for the challenge or can we do our parts on our own (or within our groups) and then you add up the total?
All legs will be tabulated at End of Day, and the tribe that finishes in the shortest total time wins immunity.

You do not need to be here specifically at any point today- only determine what leg you will participate in.

For instance, if you are performing in leg 2, you may start shooting balls at once. You can either shoot several balls at once, or take turns shooting with other players until I can get back to you.

If you are performing in leg 4, you must all agree in thread on which option you will take.

Does that make sense?

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

In the middle of the beach there is another sign written in blood. Whose blood? One of the indigenous tribesman that we slaughtered to secure this filming location, of course. But that’s not important.

The sign says: 
“Every day a challenge posted here there will be. 
Perform the tasks to win reward and/or immunity;
Lose an immunity challenge and you will go 
to tribal council where you must kill one of your own.”


[center]Challenge #1: Obstacle Course Relay[/center]
Image
Today, you’ll be playing for IMMUNITY.

If any player does not declare a position and/or action in the challenge (and this generally goes across the board for all challenges), I will automatically put them in one of the longest/safest actions possible and work out the times and energy loss accordingly. So if you can't make it, you have no say in the choices you would make for your team.

Players will be competing in an obstacle course. It is up to the tribe as to who does what.
When players have decided upon the participants for each leg, announce your own position in the thread by stating in some capacity: 
"Jeff, I will do [insert leg]"

[1 player] will perform the first leg.
[3 players] will perform the second leg.
[1 player] will perform the third leg.
[4 players] will perform the fourth leg.



1. Untying [Nimbleness] *1 player*
This leg involves untying bags of balls from a post
Spoiler: show
It will cost 1 energy/5 attempts for the player performing. The player calls a number 1-10. Each attempt has a 10% chance to succeed. Each roll will take 2 seconds for this leg.

2. Shooting Hoops [Strength] *3 players*
This leg involves 3 players from each team shooting balls through hoops. Each team must make a combined total of 8 hoops to complete this leg. Each shot attempted will take 5 seconds.
Spoiler: show
There are 3 types of balls- heavy, medium and light. There is one hoop. A player must write in thread their choice of ball and whether they will shoot with one, some, or all balls at once and I will calculate if they made each respective shot as soon as I can respond.
Heavy balls cost 2 energy, and have a 20% chance to miss
Medium balls cost 1 energy, and have a 50% chance to miss
Small balls cost no energy penalty, have an 80% chance to miss, and every shot made only takes 1 second.

3. Water Puzzle [Puzzle Solving] *1 player*
This leg requires one player to solve a water puzzle. 
Spoiler: show
I will PM the puzzle-solver the problem and they must work alone to solve it and PM me back their solution. Once someone has chosen to attempt this leg, no one else may be sent this puzzle. The timer starts as soon as I send the puzzle- I will send it to you at a pre-agreed time.

4. Lateral Ascension [Strength/Willpower] *4 players*
Four players on each tribe must laterally traverse two levels to get to the top and hoist their tribe flag. Each level has 2 options that will either test Willpower or Strength. All 4 players must decide and commit to the same option in the thread.
Spoiler: show
Level 1:
[Willpower]
Option A) Retrieve large and heavy stepping blocks from across the field. 
-2 energy/person--70 seconds total.

[Strength]
Option B) Hoist one player up, who will then lift the other players up onto the next level.
-1 energy/person each try. 40% chance to fail. --12 seconds per try

Level 2:
[Strength]
Option A) Run up a slippery slide and pull yourself up. 
-1 energy/person each try. 66% chance to fail-- 8 seconds per try per person

[Willpower]
Option B) Run up long and winding staircase.
-2 energy/person, but takes 60 seconds total

At the end of all 4 legs, I will add up the time totals. The tribe that gets to the top and raise their flag first wins the first immunity challenge of Survivor: Mafia!

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

Episode 1: As Long as it Ain't Me

DAY 1

Image


The survivors landed with a mighty splash into the waiting sea below.

Everyone except DharmaHelper, who lassoed a few castaways with the fabric from his athletic medal and corralled them into a makeshift raft. After giving the others a brief history lesson on the fealty system, he barked out a mighty roar of "So long suckers!" and the raft kicked into gear, propelling he and his cohorts onto a beach far away.

The rest of the wet, groggy, and slightly salty (insert laugh track) survivors paddled their sorry asses up onto the nearby beach a few minutes later.

Epi immediately went over to a tree to write in his diary. Quin tripped over a stick while working his way towards the jungle. And what a jungle it was!

"I aint goin in there," said Sorsha.

"Just be happy we're far away from that self-imposed king of the island," reminded DFaraday.

"lol," joked SVS.

The 9 castaways, who just so happened split themselves into one tribe of 9, surveyed their surroundings.

Not 20 yards away was a sign, declaring their tribe name to be
Atamai.

As they gaze across the beach, they see an expansive outcropping of pliable trees in front of them. The jungle ruminates with a thick chorus of animal noises. [Faint sounds of what appears to be a Marmot join in]. What will each of them do?


Day 1 ends Monday at 11p EST.

Re: Survivor: Mafia [Day 1]

RULES & PROCEDURES
Rules
1. Outwit. Outplay. Outlast.
2. No being outside-of-game-context mean to people! We're all here to have a fun time, and even though this game is based on a reality show where tensions can run high, personal attacks will not be tolerated.
a. If you are feeling frustrated, posting in thread is likely not a great idea. Oftentimes taking a few hours to do something else can really help your mindset in these situations.
b. If at any point you feel bullied, unwelcome, or uncomfortable, please bring it up to the Moderator on Duty and it will be dealt with.
3. Info-dumping IS ALLOWED. Information is a very important part of Survivor. How you choose to use it is up to you.
4. There will be no replacements in this game. If you aren't feeling your best or are having illusions of another life with commitments elsewhere, then figure something out. You could conceivably make it to the end of this game without doing anything, but you may be a liability to your tribe. If you ask to be replaced, I will not snuff out your torch- I will, however, drink some rum.
5. No talking to other players in regards to the game outside of the game thread, with the exception of your assigned BTSC partners, when designated.
6. This is the host color. Don't use it, please!
a. This is the Moderator on Duty (MoD) color. Don't use it unless you're a MoD. Your MoD for this game is juliets. Message her if you need a talk!
7. Dead players and Non-players MAY NOT POST. There will be a specified area for deadies (and non-players) to talk amongst themselves.
8. For off-topic (non-game related) discussions, use this color (labeled OT in the post-drafting screen). For sarcastic posts, feel free to use this color. For pedantic posts, this is the one to use.


Gameplay
1. Phases are in 24 hour cycles, and are split into Day and Night.
2. Day phases will consist of general camp life and challenges
-Most challenges will take place over the full day period, and some will take place at a set time towards the end of the phase, which will be made apparent at the start of the day.
3. Night phases, should the team not win immunity, will consist of Tribal Council, where one player will be voted out of the tribe at the end of the phase via privately-messaged votes. All ties are to be randomly decided among the tied players.
4. You may not target the same player with a Day or Night power two times in a row. This does not include voting for someone at tribal council.
5. All players have a Hunger, Thirst and Energy level, which will be updated via PM at the start of every Day phase (If you do not receive your updated level for some reason, PM either Marmot or myself)
a. If your hunger or thirst level drops to 0 by the end of a night phase, you will be med-evac'd and officially removed from the game.
b. If your energy drops to 0 at any point, you will still be able to remain in the game, but your ability to perform in challenges may prove to be greatly hindered until you regain energy.
c. Players may never exceed their starting attribute levels. Any excess gained in the game will be wasted.
