Survivor: Magic Kingdom - Blood vs. Water {End}

[Xalxe]

000: The Beginning.

Mickey stirred in his chair a

n

xiously. Forty-one days remained until a decision had to be made. Who would be this year's "Magic Mortal"? The question was certainly not an idle one. "Magic Mortal" was the most high honour that could be bestowed on any person by the Disney government. Previous hon

o

urees included Albert Einstein, Margaret Thatcher, and, inexplicably, Peyton Manning. These people, once chosen, became Ambassadors for Life to the world of the Disney Initiative, spreading the magic, wonder, and discovery that Disney promised to everyone in the world. This year, however, no clear-cut winner seemed to jump to Mickey's mind. The 2016 U.S. presidential race left him little hope that anyone in the United States would prove worthy of the title, and with the recent Brexit referendum leaving much of Europe in shambles, and more and more young (and old) people on their compu

t

ers, addicted to online games such as League of Legends, Mickey saw no other alternative. He would have to initiate...the

D

ay of Reckoning.

The Day of Reckoning was a failsafe, introduced into the Magical Rules at the very start of the Magic Kingdom. It allowed for the reigning ruler of the Disney government, whenever joy seemed lost in the world, and hope was dire, to initiate a competition, wherein prospective "Magic Mortals" would come to the Disney Parks, and compete for the opportunity to represent Disney around the world. The competition would not be easy. Trials, tribulations, and temptations would lay just around the (river)bend for each and every competitor. With a gleam in his eye, Mickey initiated the protocol that would set the Day of Reckoning into motion, but at the last moment, added one final Disney twist to the proceedings:

"World Citizens, at long last, I have been forced to call for a Day of Reckoning. The title of "Magic Mortal" is up for grabs for the first time ever, and each and every one of you could win the opportunity to bring Disney's joy to those who need it. I'll send out missives in the days ahead detailing how to get in touch with Magic Kingdom representatives in order to apply, but for now, there is something important I want to tell you. In the spirit of Dis

n

ey, and our desire to not only bring happiness and discovery to the world, but also love and family, you will need to find someone to compete alongside you. Now, Disney values and treasures all relationships, so if you want to engage in the competition with your sibling, your spouse, your aunt, your best friend, your parent...all of these are permissible. However, careful consideration must be given to who you choose. Ensure that they, like you, are worthy candid

a

tes for the right to be a "Magic Mortal".

In love and friendship,

Mickey"

|GENERAL RULES|

original formatting and rules blatantly stolen from Mewtwo

[/align]

|00: Wheaton's Law|

Don't Be a Dick

|01|

This is a game. The main objective is to have fun; so no excessive flaming, spamming, or submission of anything else prohibited within the MS forums.

|02|

This is a game. The secondary objective is to dominate.

|03|

We are not infallibl

e

, so if we make a mistake, please point it out to us privately so that we may make corrections as necessary.

|04|

We have worked extensively to produce a game that is enjoyed by all involved. As such, we promise to offer each player respect but expect to be shown the same in return.

|05|

Do not modify avatars. I have spent a great deal of time creating these images and would much rather concentrate on maintaining a smooth game as opposed to making unnecessary revisions. Do not place images or oversized text in your signature, as it is distracting. When in doubt, ask first.

|06|

Exercise common sense. If you are unsure as to whether an action conflicts with the rules, ask. Yes, this is a competition, but do not attempt to undermine c

h

allenges or game mechanics for your own gain. This violates both the spirit of the game and common respect mentioned above.

|07|

Private communication with players outside of your tribe is strictly prohibited unless otherwise stated. Any player found in violation of this rule will be penalized.

|08|

We would ask that players refrain from logging in anonymously. This is to help emulate the Survivor experience.

|09|

A

ny and all posting about this game outside the provided forums is illegal unless SPECIFICALLY STATED. Violators will be penalized appropriately.

|10|

Failure to complete several actions, including but not limited to, voting during Tribal Council, answering required Confessional questions or submitting for a challenge will be punished with a snakebite penalty. If a player gets three snakebites, they will be medically removed from the game.

|11|

We reserve all rights to implement new rules i

f

needed.

|GAME MECHANICS|

|01|

Survivor: Magic Kingdom

is not anony

m

ous. Despite this, players are not permitted to communicate with members of tribes other than their own, except as detailed below. Players are never permitted to communicate with any eliminated players.

|02|

Survivor: M

a

gic Kingdom

features the Blood vs Water twist, where each player has applied and been accepted with a partner, with whom they share a close relationship. Players are permitted to communicate at all times with their partners while both members of the pair are still in the game, regardless of tribal designations. Players may communicate with their partners in any manner, including Private Messages, Skype chat, or in person.

|03|

As

Survivor: Magic Kingdom

is non-anonymous, players may communicate with each other in a variety of ways, including but not limited to: Skype, Private Messages on the Magic Kingdom forum or MafiaScum, in person, via text message, or in any other method they see fit.

|3A|

The non-anonymous nature of this game means that it would be the

o

retically possible to spend all of your time communicating outside of the forum, only checking in for challenges and the like. However, we encourage you to take advantage of your confessional. To incentivize this, each moderator will be able to award 0, 1, or 2 Xalty tokens to each player at the conclusion of each round. These Xalty tokens will be awarded based on confessional quality, and your own total of Xalty tokens will neither be necessarily revealed to you at any point, nor will Xalty tokens ever be redeemable for in-game or out-of-game rewards, other than for our endless supply of affection for you.

|3B|

The non-anonymous nature of this game allows for unprecedented creativity when it comes to confessionals. Want to record a Google Hangout chat with your alliance buddies? Go for it! Want to livestream a Skype brainstormin

g

session with your tribe concerning the latest challenge? Bring it on! Want to produce a podcast with your not-so-secret partner detailing your plans for the game? More

power

to you! This is your game, your initiative, and your unlimited potential! We welcome whatever you choose to do to keep the spectators informed, and look forward to seeing it ourselves!

Reward Challenges:

|04|

The Magic Kingdom is home to a myriad of hidden treasures and rewards, all of which the mods have graciously collected. Throughout the game, Reward Challenges have been designed so that players can reap the benefits of victory, gaining powers and items to prolong their stay in the game.

|05|

Each reward challenge will have an est

ab

lished time frame that ranges between twenty-four and forty-eight hours. Fa

i

lure to submit in the specified time will result in a player's or tribe's elimination from the challenge.

|06|

The outcomes of all Reward Challenges are final. That said, be sure to keep Rule 03 of General Rules in mind.

Immunity Challenges:

|07|

A Survivor game is nothing without its standard immunity challenges. Each round will possess an Immunity Challenge.

|08|

Winners of Immunity Challenges will be

safe

from elimination that round and cannot be voted out in Tribal Councils.

|09|

We appreciate the fact that prospective contestants will enter this game with a range of skills. With this in mind, understand that we as the mo

der

ators cannot cater to all players' needs and time constraints in challenges. All challenges have been decided before the game.

|10|

The outcomes of all Immunity Challenges are final. That said, be sure to keep Rule 03 of General Rules in mind.

Tribal Council:

|11|

Tribal Councils will last twenty-four hours from the moment we notify relevant parties. If a player fails to submit a vote within the given time frame, he or she will vote randomly and accumulate a sna

keb

ite penalty. In the event that a player knows he or she will be unable to vote by deadline, that player may notify us and cast a conditional vote to avoid penalization.

|12|

The results of Tribal Councils may be posted before deadline if and only if all persons involved have submitted a vote.

|13|

The modification of votes a

ft

er they have been submitted is permitted up until the moment all votes have been cast. Vote modifications should occur in a separate post, not by editing a previous post. Once all votes are cast, the decision is final.

|14|

The outcomes of Tribal Councils are final.

|15|

Questi

on

s concerning ties in Tribal Council may be found below:

|I|

In the event of an initial tie, a revote shall take place. Contestants may only vote for one of the tied players, and all tied individuals may not vote.

|II|

If a majority is not met in the revote, the following methods (in the given order) will be implemented to determine which player is eliminated:

1. If the game has not reached the Final 6 or there are more than 2 players remaining on a tribe, all players not locked in the tie or immune will draw rocks. The player who receives a black rock will be eliminated.
   
2. If the game has reached the Final 6 or two players re
   main
   on a tribe, a tie-breaker challenge will take place between tied parties. This will be explained in greater detail should a tie occur at this stage in the game.

Twists:

The Wheel of Fortune:

|16|

During each individual round until a predetermined point, the Wheel of Fortune will be spun following the Immunity Challenge. The Wheel begins with five spaces: four numbered individually from 1 to 4, and one labelled "BB."

|17|

Should the Wheel land on a space with a number, that many Individual Immunities will be given out for the following Tribal Council, based upon the order of players' performance in the challenge. Tribal Council will then proceed as normal.

|18|

Should the Wheel land on the space labelled "BB," a Big Brother round will begin. The player who would have won Individual Immunity will instead become the Head of Household, and must nominate two players for eviction. A Power of Veto competition will take place, and the winner of the Veto will be permitted to remove one of the HoH's nominations, forcing the HoH to nominate another player. Once nominations are set, all contestants save the HoH will vote for one of the two nominees to be eliminated. Should there be a tied vote, the HoH will cast the deciding vote.

|19|

The Wheel cannot land on the same space in two consecutive rounds.

|20|

Spaces may be added to or removed from the Wheel as the game progresses.

|21|

Twists will be implemented with

out

warning or provocation throughout the game. The time and setting of each twist has already been determined, so as to neither give an unfair advantage or

dis

advantage to a player or group of player

s

.
