Etiquette, Respect
We’re all here to have fun, so don’t be a dick. No personal attacks allowed. If a player is insulting your personal character, let one of the hosts now ASAP.
No cheating of any kind is allowed in this game. That said, playing dirty and doing things like making fake conversations is fine. Please do not involve the hosts.
Communication
Communication between players will be done via the forums or via AIM. Having an AIM account is required for this game.
Cross tribal communication is allowed.
This is an ALIAS game. Meaning you cannot reveal your real identity to any of your fellow players. You may not ask other players who they are, either. We will be taking this seriously. Any accusations of alias breaking will be dealt with thoroughly.
Once you have been voted out of the game, you may NOT communicate with players still in the game about the game. If an eliminated player speaks with you about the game, screenshot it and contact a host immediately. Then we will take care of it. If a member of the jury is caught doing this, they are at risk of losing their jury spot!
Activity
Players must post at least one quality confessional per round (A round starting immediately after the previous tribal council ends and ending at the following tribal council). This is mandatory . Players who post no quality confessionals will receive a warning. Any rounds following that the player does not post a confessional, they will self vote at that round's tribal council and risk eviction from the game. To avoid this, post at least one confessional that delves into game related content, it doesn’t have to be long!
We reserve the right to evacuate inactive people from the game! If a situation arises that prevented you from posting confessionals, let the hosts know. If we hear nothing from you, we’ll be forced to take action.
Challenges
Challenges will take place following tribal council. They will be live, semi-live, or non-live. Most challenges will take place over at least 24 hour period (unless live), but we may extend that time if requested.
Tribal Council, Voting
Tribal Council will take place immediately after an immunity challenge, or at the host’s discretion. You will have at least 24 hours to cast your vote in your confessional.
Ties: A tie at tribal council will result in a re-vote, where only those who received the most votes can be voted for. If a tie results after that, the players who received the most votes in the tie will compete in a tie-breaker challenge. Alternatively, all players except for those who received the most votes (or who have immunity) will draw rocks.
Special items: Players play special items (e.g., idols, double votes) when they cast their vote. They cannot be played at tribal council. Special items may be transferred between players on the same tribe.
In the end...
The hosts have the final say in all situations. We want to host a fun game for everybody, but if a player breaks these rules, then we will take action.
