Skypevivor - Bermuda Triangle

Hello friends and enemies and variations thereupon! Welcome to another sexy iteration of MafiaScum Plays Social Games On Skype!

I am thrilled to announce that I will be hosting a Survivor game on
August 18 and 19, 2017
. Here are some rules!

Spoiler: Rulez
stolen, with all my love, from PrivateI

1. This is a game, so the primary goal is to have fun.
2. This is a game, so another goal is to win.
3. Don't be a dick. I reserve the right to kill your slot if you're making this game unpleasant for others, thus violating rule #1.
4. Don't take advantage of any unclear rules. Ask questions, and I'm always happy to provide clarifications. Cheating makes me sad, and people who make me sad get eliminated. ;)
5. Everyone comes in with a unique set of skills, and I will sometimes be unable to cater to everyone's individual needs. This is ESPECIALLY true in Skype games, where some challenges will unfortunately be dependent on Internet speed. I've done my best to mitigate some of those concerns, but please realize that it might be a factor in some challenges.
6. I make mistakes. Please let me know if I make a mistake, and I'll do my best to rectify it.
7. The outcomes of immunity or reward challenges are final.
8. Failure to vote will result in a random vote being cast, and will earn you a strike. Failure to submit for challenges requiring a submission will also garner a strike.
Three strikes, or two strikes in a row, will result in a medical evacuation.
9. Ties will be handled as follows:

a. If 2 or more players are tied in an initial Tribal Council vote, there will be a revote. All non-tied players will only be able to vote for one of the tied players. If this results in a majority, that player is eliminated. If it does not, all players who are both a) not involved in the initial tie and b) not granted Immunity in any fashion will draw rocks, and the player who draws the odd rock out is eliminated.

b. If all votes cast against players are ruled not to count because of hidden items, or things of that nature, we will revote. The Immunity Challenge winner, and anyone else who was immune in the first vote, will have immunity from this revote. If a further revote results in a tie, I will follow the procedures listed above.

c. In a revote (because no valid votes were cast), items such as idols etc. WILL be able to be used. In the event that any vote ends with only one person being not immune (and no valid votes cast), the person who is not immune will be sent home with no revote. In the event that ALL players are rendered immune, one of two things will happen. If the game has reached the merge, then we will move on to the next round, and no formal elimination will occur. An additional twist, however, may accompany this occurrence. If the game has NOT reached the merge, then we will revote, and all items used up to that point will have been wasted. These items will not be refunded.

d. If a jury vote for a Final Three results in a tie, we will revote. The player who received the least votes from the jury will also vote. Only in the event of a further tie will this extra vote be revealed.

10. No screenshotting or quoting of communications between players or communications to or from the moderator will be allowed. Violating this rule, in particular, will result in the heaviest consequences I can levy, and will be brought to the Large Social Game mods for further consideration.


Sign up and/or express interest below! Look, you know how this works by now. If you can only make one night/part of each night, hydras are an option, but I'll be announcing a slight tweak to the hydra element; I recommend your hydra partner be someone you work well with. The game will likely go from 7pm-12am Xalxe Standard Time (XST), though a survey will be sent out shortly before the game.

If you sign up and you do NOT have me added on Skype, you should fix that! I'm awspeidel and I'm very friendly sometimes when I feel like it.

I learned how Xalxe pronounces his name about a year ago and have actually never used the correct pronunciation. I just do a mix of what I used to do (zalle-ks) and the correct one (zaul-zay) to give me (zalle-zay).

Though it's still pronounced "Xalxe" :)

The most upsetting thing about having attended SurvivorMeet is that I can no longer sufficiently maintain the Air Of Mystery as to my username's pronunciation and if there's anything I regret about my choices, it's that.

Good news: Your bribe is granted!
Bad news: It's Arkham Asylum so automatic jury means nothing.

We only exist because we're paid off by microsoft to trap unsuspecting ms users into using outdated software.

Find me a program I don't also hate for odd reasons and I'll move.
but I consider them all as bad as each other as it stands.

I find Discord far, far better.

I actually don't think anyone would disagree with that, it's more of an apathy thing.

Discord does not fit the definition of a program I don't also hate.
