A key part of Survivor is how people act under two extreme conditions: when the cards are stacked against them, and when they are in power.
Only a true Survivor can handle both well.

The Golden Rule
: I treat this game as a simulation of the TV show. Thus, my general attitude is: If it wouldn't fly and/or couldn't be done on the show, you can't do it here.

Now clearly, there are advantages on the internet; you can look things up, download programs or whatever, and that's fine. But things like intentionally self-voting, screenshotting or intentionally not participating after elimination are considered a breach of contract and will be dealt with harshly.


Communication Rules
: You may use any communication method which has been
explicitly
approved by me. Currently this list is:
  • Instant Messengers (AIM, MSN, Skype)
  • On-site private messages
If you think another method should be approved, ask. I will not be approving QuickTopic at any point, so don't bother.

Cross-tribal communication is illegal. Informing me of such will result in happiness for you and badness for others.

Tribal Council
: Each player will have 24 hours to cast a vote for Tribal Council AND to answer the provided questions. Doing both is required. Failure to do so will result in punishment to fit the crime.

Once a vote is cast, it is final. Results will be revealed once all votes are in.

Ties

The tiebreaking procedure is as follows:
  • Players will revote among the tied players. The tied players will not vote.
  • If this does not resolve the vote, all players save those involved in the tie and anyone with Immunity will draw rocks. The player who draws the differently colored rock will be eliminated.


Hawt New Game Mechanics
  • Willpower
    : Each player begins the game with 100 Willpoints, which may be used for a variety of things as the game progresses. Willpoint totals will not be made public, though you will be informed of your total should you ask privately.
  • Pearls
    : Each castaway, upon being voted out, must choose to give either a Cursed or Blessed Pearl to a member of their Tribe. The Cursed Pearl will add one vote for the player holding it at the next Tribal Council, while the Blessed Pearl will subtract one vote.
  • Exile Island
    : The winning Tribe of each Reward Challenge will get to send one member of the other Tribe to Exile Island. While on Exile, they are forbidden to communicate with their tribemates, and they get a chance to search for a Hidden Immunity Idol. Exiled players will return for the next Immunity challenge.
  • ????
    Will not be revealed until after Merge

In the clusterfuck that was the server going down, the game was moved to an offsite forum. If you wish to view the main game thread, go to the forum here.

Otherwise, stay tuned to this thread for updates from Hawaii!

Apparently I am incapable of bookmarking my own threads :igmeou:

Anyway, yesterday the two tribes competed in Simon for a reward of Fishing Gear and flint for Akamai. Akamai handily destroyed Iniki and won their flint and fishing gear.

In addition, Exile Island was introduced. chesskid3 sent Pizzadudes7 to Exile to fend for himself and maybe find a Hidden Immunity Idol.

Will Akamai go on a hot streak?
Will Pizzadudes7 survive Exile Island?
How will Iniki hold up under the strain?

Tune in next time!

After they lost the Reward Challenge for flint, Akamai rallied and beat Iniki in Predator and Prey, sending them to Tribal Council for the first time.

Tragedy was voted out of Iniki.




On Day 7, a huge thunderstorm hit the island. Battling through the rain, Iniki won the Sudoku Puzzle Reward Challenge and took home a tarp. Additionally, they took the liberty of sending chesskid3 to Exile Island.

This tarp was rather beneficial, as both shelters were knocked out by the downpour.

On Day 8, Iniki continued their winning streak in the Hawaiian Smoothies challenge (yuck), sending Akamai back to Tribal Council where they voted Lowell off. Poor Lowell...




On Day 9, each tribe sent three members to Challenge Beach. However, instead of a challenge they were met with a tribe swap. animorpherv1, kdowns and Nicholas1024 swapped to Iniki, while Pizzadudes7, Rhinox and TheBadOne found themselves on Akamai.

How will these new members fare in the face of being outnumbered?
Does anybody have a Hidden Immunity Idol?
Will Xalxe ever update on time?

Tune in next week to find out!

Following the Tribe Swap, players competed to garner support from their friends in order to win the challenge. Sadly, Akamai was defeated again and sent back to Tribal Council.

In a shocking turn of events, a tie vote resulted in chesskid3's elimination.

Will Akamai be able to overcome this 2-man deficit before the impending merge?
Where is the Hidden Immunity Idol?
Who holds the power on each tribe?

Find out next time!

This is just a bump to remind players of the challenge tomorrow afternoon and that CERTAIN PEOPLE have things to submit.

You know who you are.

This week, players beat the shit out of each other in
Bag Brawl
...or they would have, if Akamai hadn't handily taken home their first Immunity win in a while.

On Iniki, there was drama (as to be expected), and Chevre was eliminated.

Will Iniki recover their momentum?
Will Akamai stay sane?
What will come on Day 15?

Tune in next time!
