SURVIVOR: Tundra of Thunder: New Challenge? Say What?!?

SURVIVOR: Tundra of Thunder

Welcome, traveler. It is most unfortunate that you should find yourselves here, of all places. Here, where there is no sun to show you the way, only the flash of lightning. Here, where you can travel for days, and never see another living soul. Here, where you may only find yourself at peace when you have been stricken down by the elements, or some force unknown. Indeed it is unfortunate, travelers, that you should come here. Here to the Tundra of Thunder.

This will be another game of survivor based loosely on the CBS reality show of the same name. The contestants will be divided into two tribes, and will compete in weekly competitions. At the end of each week, one competitor will be voted out, until (after a series of twists and turns) there are only two remaining. The two remaining players will face a jury, composed of the booted players.

SURVIVOR: Tundra of Thunder - RULES:

(shamelessly stolen from BB)

1: You are allowed to talk with one another outside the thread. You may PM eachother, IM eachother, do whatever you please. It is encouraged to strategize with other players.

2: Challenges and Voting Periods will have deadlines. If you do not turn in your vote on time for Tribal Council, you will recieve a self-vote.

3: In the event of a tie, the players will revote. If a tie remains, then the contestants in the tie will compete in a challenge to stay in the game.

4: You may not vote for the person who has immunity.

5: My word is final, don't argue with the host (aka Me).

6: If you have any questions, feel free to post them here or to PM me.

7: Be active, post here on the thread and meet your deadline. For each deadline you miss you will recieve a strike. Once you have collected three strikes you will be required to sit out the next Immunity Challenge in order to redeem a strike. At the final four, strikes will no longer come into play. Deadlines include Challenges and Tribal Councils.

8: I will try to post challenges regularly, I’m planning for about 5 PM EST on any given afternoon. If this is a problem for you in terms of being able to participate, contact me before the first challenge begins and I’ll try to adapt the times. The further into the game we get, the less likely I am to change the times for one complaint.

Event 1: Tribal Division

You know not how you got here, or from whence you came, but here you are none the less. In the Tundra of Thunder. The constant booms of explosive electricity are coupled with winds the like of which you’ve never experienced, almost strong enough to pick you up right where you stand. Though there is no sun to speak of, the constant flash of lightning illuminates your world enough to make out your general surroundings. Ahead of you is a small shack, the only shelter to be seen for miles around. Rushing inside you find nothing but two small boxes. On the top of one is painted a giant sword; On the other, a flame of red and orange. Inside each box are 8 plain necklaces with a single hanging ornament, a small stone marked with a design to match its respective box. [/b]

You must each take a necklace out of one of the boxes. Please post in thread

(in bold)

which design you would like. Obviously this is first come first serve. Once all of one design has been taken, the remaining players will be assigned the opposite.

You now have a day to discuss with your fellow tribe mates as well as others on the Tundra. Tomorrow the first Tribe vs Tribe Immunity challenge will be posted, and the first Tribal Council shortly afterward its completion.

[Elias_the_thief]

Event Two: The Stones of Dark and Light

The stones of Light and Dark are objects of much desire in the Tundra of Thunder. The tales stretch back many years, to the beginning of all records. The stones are fabled to protect you from all harms that you might befall on the Tundra, and be used almost any time to make yourself completely untouchable. Some say that the Great Keepers of the Stones still reside deep underground, somewhere below the Tundra. They say that were someone to learn the identity of the keeper, and successfully solve the riddles of one of the keepers, a stone would be theirs. So they say.

This is only the introduction to the Stones of Dark and Light Side Event. Further clues will be revealed throughout the course of the game. Should you believe that you know the identity of the keepers, then PM me the answer. However, should you guess wrong three times, you will no longer be eligible to complete the event.

Immunity Challenge One: Know thy friends…know thy enemies.

As your time in the Tundra begins to wear on, it seems that each day is more treacherous than the last. It is only your friendship with the fellow members of your tribe, and your knowledge of the tribe competing against you, that has kept you all around thus far. But today, no more. You will now be tested on your knowledge of both tribes in a series of five questions. Each contestant will send in a submission with their tribe name and guesses. Each correct answer is worth one point. The tribe who has the most points when all submissions have been turned in will win immunity. The other tribe will face tribal council.

Questions:

In the Magus Tribe, which was chosen more often:

Dark or Light?
Red or Blue?
Dog or Cat?
Loyalty or Betrayal?
Technology or Nature?
Strength of Body or Strength of Mind?

In the Gladius Tribe, which was chosen more often:

Dark or Light?
Red or Blue?
Dog or Cat?
Loyalty or Betrayal?
Technology or Nature?
Strength of Body or Strength of Mind?

In your submission please include your tribe as well as answers for

both

tribes. Deadline will be Friday the 15th at 5 PM EST.

[JordanA24]

I assume you're not allowed to contact other people in the game during the challenge.

Contacting others is encouraged. Think of it as a fact-finding mission.
- Mod

[Elias_the_thief]

Bump in case any contestants have missed the challenge.

[Blackberry]

You should assume you and the other tribe are living together like one big happy

disfunctional

family! So chatter away, mmmk?

Can I ask that you clarify scoring. If perhaps, Person G does not turn in their submission by deadline, they just get 0 points, correct?

And will each individual score for the team be revealed or just the overall final score?

[Elias_the_thief]

If Person G does not turn in an application, they will recieve no points for their team. Turning in your answers will almost certainly give you a few points, so if you dont feel like talking to others, at least turn in something.

The individuals scores will be revealed.
