**These are the rules that you have already signed and agreed to but are here for your reference in case you need to look back on anything that you did sign!
GENERAL RULES
A good internet connection, working webcam and the ability to record videos and upload them via YouTube are the main components of the game.
You will need to be able to access Skype and Zoom.
Production must be added to all chats, whether they are group chats, 1-on-1 game talks, etc. We may not always be there, but must be added to all chats/calls. We will know if we aren't!
I hereby give ProSurvivor the rights to use my image in video or still and sound clips of my voice to be used in; but not limited to; episodes, trailers, challenge promos, etc
All game information is confidential unless released by production. Please keep information to yourself so the game details are not spoiled to others.
Disrespect towards a member of production or other players will not be tolerated. Comments such as but not limited to racist, homophobic, sexist, etc. are strictly prohibited. If any concerns arise with a player or member of production, please message your production chat so we may resolve the issue.
Be on time with deadlines! Participation is key to these games being successful. Strikes will be given out if you do not participate in challenges, complete confessionals, fail to post tribal council questions early if necessary, etc. 3-strikes and you will receive a punishment or could be removed from the game. Production has the final say on the issuing of strikes.
INTEGRITY OF THE GAME
CHEATING IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND THEREFORE WILL RESULT IN REMOVAL FROM THE GAME.
If there is suspicion of cheating, proof may be required to be provided to Production. This could be screen shots, chats, etc. Discussing the game/details with anyone outside of Production may result in disciplinary action including a self-vote or possible ejection from the game.
Cross Tribal Communication is NOT allowed. That includes direct communication with other tribes. It also includes providing game information to people not in the game. Information passed to those not in the game can get back to others within the game and affects the integrity of the game.
Altering or editing challenge submissions is cheating and can be cause for removal from the game.
You are responsible for your challenges. Having another player/non-player complete your challenge is cheating and will result in removal from this game.
There is no recording of private conversations or use of screenshots as game strategy, nor to divulge information about players nor tribes. The only people recording anything in this game - unless it's part of a challenge - is the Production Team. If you are caught violating this rule you will be subject to a penalty and possible removal from the game. Screenshots must be provided within 24 hours of the infraction occurring.
Production will not confirm nor deny, and cannot be involved in any strategy related to a player’s game.
CHALLENGES
Challenges will be Live, Semi-Live (scheduled with Production) or 24/48/72 hour challenges. They will be posted on the challenge board.
Each challenge will have specific rules. Read them and understand them. We will clarify any information regarding challenges. If you have a question, please ask!
Non-Submission and Non-Participation in challenges may result in Production issuing you a self-vote and/or a strike. (See strike system below)
Production strives to maintain a high level of fair play in all challenges. The decision of Production is final. Respect it.
TRIBAL COUNCIL
All Tribal Councils are LIVE.
If you’re unable to attend Tribal Council, you must let production know at least two hours beforehand so we may provide you with a question. Answers must be posted (In the form of a video) at least one hour prior to Tribal Council and must be posted in your confessional on Proboard.
Votes at a live tribal cannot be changed. A player not attending tribal must pre-vote in their confessional on Proboard. A pre-vote must be submitted 10 minutes prior to the beginning of Tribal Council. A vote may also be changed up to 10 minutes prior to the beginning of Tribal Council.
In the event of a tie, a re-vote will occur. Players not live at tribal will re-vote in the same manner as their original vote unless a vote list is provided. If the re-vote remains a tie, players will test their fate by drawing rocks. Rules of drawing rocks will be explained at Tribal Council. One round prior to the final tribal, a tie will not be determined by rocks, but will go to a "fire-building" challenge and the challenge description will be announced at that time.
In the event that you do not attend Tribal Council and do not pre-vote, you will be issued a self-vote, which will be announced.
CONFESSIONALS
You will be required to completed a minimum of one (1) video confessional per round in your skype production chat. Production Member Dustin will be taking lead on these confessionals. He will work to schedule a 2-5 minute time frame to complete a confessional each round. If you cannot work with his schedule another production member can complete this to ensure you receive no strikes. Please work to be available in order for production at least one time per round.
There is no rule about what you can or cannot say in confessionals as long as it is related to ProSurvivor. You may discuss challenges, other players, one-on-one conversations, game strategy, frustrations within the game, twists, blindsides, speculation, etc... as long as it's about ProSurvivor.
Not completing the required confessional within the time constraints and posting to the Proboards or your Skype Production Chat on time, will result in a strike. If even one second late, a strike will be issued.
Strike One: Given a warning.
Strike Two: No vote at your next tribal council. This will NOT be announced.
Strike Three: No vote at your next tribal council. This WILL be announced.
Strike Four: REMOVAL FROM THE GAME.
POWERS AND TWISTS
All information regarding Powers and Twists will be posted on the proboards. Read them and understand them. If you have any questions, please ask in your production chat.
All Powers will come with instructions explaining when a power may or may not be played, if/when it expires, etc. If you have additional questions, production will be happy to clarify.
Hidden Immunity Idols must be played after votes are cast, but before votes are read. Once the first vote is read, idols cannot be played (A heads up to production, when you cast your vote, would be helpful and appreciated). In the event that you are pre-voting, Hidden Immunity Idols must be played at the time of your vote. As with your vote, you may change your idol play up until 10 minutes before the beginning of tribal council.
All decisions regarding Powers and Twists will be made by Production in a timely manner. All decisions are FINAL.
CHANGES WITHIN THE GAME
The ProSurvivor production team reserves the right to modify game, challenges, power or twist rules, within the game, AT ANY TIME.
