Hello, it's me.

Vashtaneurotic and I are planning a game based on world legends, myths, and religions. It's tentatively called
Survivor: More Legendary
. A basic game outline, as well as overarching game twists, have been created, and we are moving on to challenge design as I speak. Things are heating up here at PV Enterprises, and you won't want to miss it.

Interested applicants should have the following:
  • 3-5 years experience modding games. Or just know how to play Survivor, one of the two.
    A passion for serving others, and a love of making your vision a reality. Or just a desire for the fame and fortune that comes with modding Survivor games.
    Intensive experience with photo manipulation, editing, and creation. Or at least you've opened up Microsoft Paint at any point in your life.
    Ideas for challenge design which are unique, fun, and easy to run. Or, at a minimum, a better idea for challenge design than running Coup with three tribes.
    Endless free time and dedication to menial tasks for a minimum of two years. Or sometimes check on things when we ask you to I guess.
Potential applicants should reach out to myself or Vashtaneurotic, and we'll get you started in the best world adventure you've been a part of.

I have cooked up a really unique idea for an LSG that functions similarly to Endurance, but with quite different mechanics. I don't believe this game has ever been run before and I think I've struck gold. I'm really excited about this idea, but I can't run it alone. I'm looking for two people with specific skillsets. I need someone who can help me with challenge design and someone who can help me with graphics. Obviously I would also want help for specific theme ideas and game thoughts, but at the minimum I know what my weaknesses are and where I would need help :)

If you have any interest, please reach out to me <3

A brand new MS Original LSG never run before that involves pairs and functions somewhere between Capture and Endurance. We are hopeful this will become a classic game that people will enjoy for socially interesting, strategically intriguing, and cooperative balancing dynamics.

We are also in the market for a 3rd comod. We don't necessarily need anyone for graphics or game design. But if you have a passion for helping build new games and working on challenge design, and will be active to help us with general assistance, feel free to apply :)

We are hoping to build interest and get hype! \o/ HYPE HYPE AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Looking for a mod whose up for helping to create a brand new LSG game, the game will be based around new UK TV show 'The Circle' its a show similar to your general LSGs but is heavier on the social game, challenges only serve as points of conversation rather than having direct impact upon who has power in the game

Elimination are based purely on rating other players on their social game and how well you like them (with of course some twists)

For anyone who has watched The Circle, it won't be exactly the same in some aspects as some things wouldn't work, the important factor is the rating system

If you haven't watched The Circle feel free to apply as a mod anyway and I'll happily tell you about it some more

Also I'm super open to working with people I've never met before or don't know well so yeah don't be shy, just as long as your open to having fun

Looking for a comod for a nonanonymous concept that I intend to run in the extreme short-term (let's say, by or around American Thanksgiving). I don't have much to say at this time, other than expressing a desire to Make MS Great Again.

Following on from Captain Meme stepping down from modding duties, we need a new co-mod for this game. A lot of the general outline for the game has been worked out, its more so of creating a board and stuff like that. It's both me and Snakes that are currently working on the game

Idea for a Survivor game, Cannibal Island, introducing a food mechanic.

Each tribe beings with X pounds of rice. Before each challenge you have the choice to eat 1 pound of rice, partake in no rice or take a double helping of rice. Eating rice allows you to compete in that day’s challenge. If you choose not to eat any rice, you will not have the energy to compete and must sit out of the challenge. Eating a double portion of rice, 2 pounds, let's you gain an advantage in that day’s challenge, due to the extra energy for calories consumed. If you choose to eat a double portion, there will be a 33% chance of being caught taking a double portion and being made known to your tribe. There is at start of game just enough pounds of rice such that if one tribe were to lose every challenge (thus sending one person home each challenge) and every player on that tribe always competed in the challenge without taking a double portion, then they will barely have enough rice to always allow every player on the tribe to compete in the challenge until the merge. No tribe will ever be forced to sit out a player in a challenge for having more players than the other tribe. Therefore on average, a tribe that doesn't go to tribal council at some point will have to sit out an extra person on average per challenge in order to have enough rice for tribe to keep competing. And if people are taking double portions, then even less rice available.

I am looking for comods for a game called Survivor of the Fittest, it will be an animal kingdom themed game. Plenty of room for design, looking for at least one partner to put in a lot of effort to help me get this over the finish line. The game wants to feature great challenge design and many low-impact twists, no great overhauls of the format. If you're interested, please drop me a line.

Thank you

Has anyone thought of hosting a “The Circle” game? From the UK show that’s not a US theme?
