Basic Rules/Guidelines:
1. Be as active as you can
2. Respect everyone (other castaways, PWs, myself)
3. Write in your confessionals often! It makes the game more fun. Tell me about your alliances, enemies, plans, etc. AIM convos with other castawys are golden!
4. You have 24 hours to complete a Challenge or vote unless I say otherwise
4.5 Votes will always be cast in confessionals. PM votes will never be accepted and count as self-votes
5. HAVE FUN
6. The first vote I see is FINAL! You cannot change your vote and expect it to count. Too many things have happened in the past with other games I've hosted
7. No cheating on Challenges (i.e. PhotoShopping a score). This now includes deleting your posts in endurance Challenges! I can check the Security Log, and it'll count as a DQ
9. You can only self-vote three times. On the third one, you will be removed from the game
10. If you are going on vacation, leave a Boot List!
Challenge TieBreakers:
-Challenge ties will always be broken by who sends first in real time
Tribal Council TieBreakers:
-If it is the first Tribal Council and there is a tie, there will be a revote. After the revote, if there is still a tie, there will be Survival Questions and the first person to get a question wrong will be voted off
-If it is the final four Tribal Council and there is a tie, all castaway involved in the tie will compete in a flash game and the lowest score will be voted off
-If it is any other Tribal Council and there is a tie, there will be a revote. After the revote, if there is still a tie, every castaway who is not Immune will draw rocks, and the one with the Purple Rock will be voted off
