Non Live Challenges: I will be posting non live challenges every night with the exception of having 2-3 live challenges and maybe 1-2 semi lives in there with at least one rest day. It is up to you to submit every challenge before the predetermined deadline. I will give everyone at least 12 hours to complete the challenge if not a little more based on people’s schedules. (It usually won’t be 12 unless it’s a very easy challenge). You must do your best to submit every non live challenge. If it’s a game that requires you to screenshot a score to me, you MUST have your Tengaged profile visible in the photo so I have proof you didn’t cheat. If you don’t have your profile visible, you will not get credit for completing the challenge.
Voting: After the challenge is completed, I will post tribal. I will give you at least 12 hours to send in your votes (maybe more time if people need it—some tribal times may be 12 hours to keep a good pace for the season but most should be 24 hour deadlines). If there is a tied vote, everyone except for the people who received votes will re-vote. If the re-vote is tied again, the votes are deadlocked and you will be going to rocks. If there is a tie at final 4, you will square off in a quick little memory challenge. If you are not in the revote tie, you will have one hour to message me your vote. If you don’t message me your re-vote in that time, I will assume you’ll want to keep your vote the same. If you self vote more than two times in a row or three times in general, you WILL be medically evacuated. The person that self voted will be revealed at tribal council. If a person self votes with individual immunity, that vote will go against them at the next tribal they aren’t immune to. You can change your vote as many times as you want but it must be submitted by the posted deadline. If it’s even one minute after, your changed vote won’t be counted. As far as sending votes, you can send them to me on Skype or Tengaged (doesn’t matter to me). Discord is fine as well but I’m not that active there so I wouldn’t prefer it.
Hidden Immunity Idols/Advantages: There will be hidden immunity idols in play this season! You can either play it live during tribal when I ask or you can message me ahead of time letting me know that you want to play it. These idols will be hidden on a random Tengaged users first blog (aka oldest blog). To claim the idol, you must be the first to send me the link. If you’re not the first, I will let you know that you didn’t get the idol. There will be one idol per starting tribe and one merge idol. Even if someone gets voted out with an idol at the first tribal council, the starting tribe's idol WILL NOT be replanted and the idol would be dead. The merge idol WILL ALSO NOT BE REPLANTED. If you voted out 2 people at the merge both with idols in their pocket then that idol would be dead. There will also be times when you can earn advantages in the game. If you get an advantage, I’ll clearly lay out the rules for you there.
Idol Transfers/Advantage Transfers I do allow idol transfers and advantage transfers. If you are on the same tribe, you must mail me of the person you’re transferring your idol to or advantage. . If you’re not on the same tribe, you must publically transfer the idol or advantage in your own forum to the tribe member you want to have it.
Confessionals: Confessionals are a HUGE REQUIREMENT. I know they can be a pain in the ass to send at times but it’s the only way that I know what’s going on with your game. You could literally even send me 3 sentences, just a little something to where I can get a grasp at where your head's at. If you don’t send confessionals, you’re not likely to receive any awards at the end of the season and your chances at returning in the future will be slim. I am also doing a confessional chart this season like real life Survivor and I plan to do some podcasts with VL guests to talk about some episodes. In order to do this stuff though, it’s on you to send confessionals daily. Also if you send confessionals, you’ll get a good edit hehe.
Behavior: This was something I didn’t have to worry about in my first two season but it’s something I still want to address. I will tolerate no BULLSHIT behavior here. This is supposed to be a fun game for everyone so personal attacks will absolutely not be tolerated. If I feel you have crossed a line, I will message you a clear warning. However, if you cross the line personally with someone twice, you will be EJECTED from the game. We are all adults here so I’m not worried about this but it’s something I want you all to be aware of.
If you have any questions about these rules, don’t be afraid to message me!
