How does it work?
This is a game meant for anywhere between 14 and 20 players! We'd ideally like it to land on an even number, of course. The game will start out with a number of teams, referred to as "Tribes". The game runs on a series of Cycles. Tribes will compete for Immunity, and losers will have to vote one of their own out of the game at a Tribal Council. At a midway point, the Tribes will merge into one, and Immunity will be competed for individually. A selection of players voted out will form a Jury, who will then vote for one of the final remaining players the Winner and Sole Survivor.

Sounds cool, what's at stake?
$125 USD in the form of a Gift Card as the winner sees fit! Second place wins $25. There are no prizes for any other placing.

Sounds like it could take a while. Is there a set Schedule?
Yes! Immunity challenges will usually take place on Mondays and Wednesdays, and Tribal Councils will usually occur on Tuesdays and Thursdays, all events happening after 6pm EST/3pm PST. Sometimes these events might fall on the same day, or be pushed into Friday on a case by case basis. We try to avoid running events on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays so players can enjoy having their weekends free.

How long is the game expected to go?
The game is set to go somewhere between 36 and 50 legitimate days. However, there is a lot of downtime in most those days so it's not like a grueling time commitment.

What do I need if I want to play?
You'll need an active Discord App account and Platinum here on Something Awful. Too many mechanics in this game relies on PMs, so it's sadly a requirement we have to make.

I don't want to play, but how can I follow along?
if you are interested in following this game from a viewer perspective, we will have a special room on Discord known as the Viewer's Vista, where you can see which players voted who, read their in-game confessionals, and chat with other former players!

Will there be Battleship?
No.

Who is eligible to play?
Anybody! No restrictions!

Are there any rules?
There are a number of rules that will be posted in specific once the game starts, but it basically boils down to the following: Don't cheat, Don't bribe, Don't edit posts, Don't post or share Mod PMs or chatlogs, Don't interact out of thread with people not on your tribe, and Don't post if you've been voted out.


Any other questions, feel free to ask!

This is a great game and you should play it. Sadly this year I can't afford to be up at ungodly hours of the night since I'm EUTZ so I'll pass.

What a fun and interesting concept for a game. I applied and hope that I get to play! I hope everyone will take it easy on me, as I am new to these sorts of games.

You know you're having a bad day when a Cylon ambush would improve it.

I would throw together a Pax Mech rereg to further this joke, but that would risk being taken seriously.
