Welcome. By now, almost all of you have gotten used to the concept of Survivor. Project Mayhem members have played it. Further Entertainment members have played it. And Sausage Island members are all about it. So what would happen if we had a game that members signed up to represent their original forum? A multi-forum Survivor game...will people stay true to their forum roots? Or will we see all sorts of nasty betrayals?
But, having just three forums where a good chunk of the members know each other would be no fun. Let's throw in a wildcard, an underdog. The Temple of Kraden forum. Six people that not one of you know will be thrown in together with you guys, just to make things even more interesting.
This is Survivor: Allies and Enemies
So who's in?
-----
So for those of you not aware, this is a Survivor ORG. You basically take the online TV show of Survivor and translate it as closely as possible into a forum game. Here are some quick rules:
General Rules
- Drama is fun, but don't take it too far please! No personal attacks.
- Anyone who is caught cheating will be kicked straight to pre-jury.
- You're not allowed to impersonate hosts, other players, or PW's in order to gain information. If you're caught, you will be ejected. Fake conversations are acceptable...and fun! As long as they don't involve hosts or PW's.
- Don't spam the board!
- No porn, no death threats. Blame fourm rules, not me! If you break this, the site could be taken down.
- Whatever we say goes. You might not like our rulings, but the hosts have the final say, so suck it up!
Tribal Council
- Please use the parchment provided for you in your confessional. Be creative with them!
- You'll usually have 24 hours after Tribal Council is posted to get your vote in. There may be exceptions to this, but if that happens the host will make it clear.
- If you wish to play a Hidden Immunity Idol or you another prize, please say so when you post your vote. Do NOT edit it into that post later on, because the hosts might not see it. Make a new post if you have to.
- If all votes are in before the 24 hours is up, the hosts reserve the right to post TC results early in order to keep the game at a fast pace. Generally though, the hosts wait out the 24 hours at the hosts digression. No asking for votes to be read early; it doesn't work that way!
- In the event of a tie, there will be a revote where you can only vote for the players it tied for. If there's still a tie after that, the tied players will face off in a challenge.
- Leave a bootlist or you're a fool.
- If you're voted out, it's fair game to post your final thoughts in the Tribal Council thread, but you cannot go around IM'ing players and spilling information to them.
Inactives
- If you disappear for a certain length of time, and there's no sign of you coming back, the hosts will be forced to remove you from the game. If you're going away, or have an emergency, make sure to let the hosts know.
Confessionals
- Post in your confessionals! It makes the game more fun for the hosts, for the PW's, and for your fellow players once the game ends. Confessionals are a must.
Challenges
- Challenges will either be 24 hours, live, or semi-live. You will be notified.
- Keep an eye out for Treemail posted in your tribe camps. They'll give you the necessary info about your upcoming challenge.
- Challenges should always be posted on time by the hosts, but in the event that they're not, just remember that the hosts are also human! I'm sure there would be a good reason for it being late.
- Extensions are fine if the situation calls for it, just make sure you tell us if you need one as far in advance as possible.
- If you have any questions about challenge rules, ask the hosts!
This is not a first come first serve game. You will need to contact me over AIM to fill out a small application so the hosts can get a gauge on you as a player. Each forum will have six representatives. Please apply, and I hope to hear from you soon!
