The Rules on Days Survivor Island

Only those who have already registered and claimed a character may play. The rest of you: We look forward to seeing you next time.

Every round will be three or four days long. Prepare to be flexible (in any way you desire...) You may use your first and second days to rest, to form alliances, and/or to post confessionals from your character about his or her experiences thus far. The second day ideally - possibly the third day - we'll have our immunity challenge. We'll make the announcement of when the immunity challenges will occur on the first day of each round. We will give you the details of each challenge on the day it is scheduled to occur. The fourth day of each round will be the Tribal Council during which you can either e-mail or cast your vote here on the blog for the Weakest Link...I mean tribe member to be voted off. Remember to include comments explaining your vote! If you are unable to get online on a voting day, do not panic! You may cast a vote by e-mail anytime during the course of a round, even before the immunity challenge winner has been declared. (If your team wins immunity, your vote will be discarded, and no one will know who you voted for.) Votes may also be changed anytime before the Tribal Council ends at midnight on the last night of a round. The last vote cast, either on the Days Survivor page or by e-mail, will be the one counted{*}. At the conclusion of Tribal Council, the votes and the comments will be posted on the blog, and we will declare who has been cast-off. The cast-off member of the tribe will then post his or her final words. All cast-off members will be on the jury that decides between the final two Survivors. Email votes may be sent to: tribalcouncil@peanut-gallery.com.

We will begin as two tribes and merge when we are down to 10 or 11 players - I, The Big BadAss, will officially make that call when the time comes. Immunity challenges will be team challenges until the merge; then they will become individual (just like on the show). Until the tribes merge, whichever tribe loses the immunity challenge must vote off one of its members. After the tribes merge, only one person will win immunity in each challenge, again just like on the show. Confused? No? Good. Confused? Yes? You'll catch on in no time, and you can always e-mail me if you're really lost.
