1. Anyone is allowed to apply for this game. Age is not a factor. However, only 16 applicants will be selected and separated into two tribes. If you are selected, you will receive an e-mail with more information about the game. You must have access to AIM. These screen names should be included in your application. AIM is a free service, and if you need more information on this, please contact the host immediately.
2. Immunity challenges will occur on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Tribal councils will be held on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Sunday is a break day with no challenges or tribal councils.
3. It is prohibited for anyone to contact castaways on the opposing tribe. If it is found you broke this rule, you will be immediately disqualified from the game.
4. The jury will consist of the last 7 people voted out of the game. These 7 people will continue to be part of the game even though they have been voted out. If you become a jury member, you will be given specific information about immunity challenges and tribal councils after each episode. This information will consist of facts such as: who won immunity, who participated in the challenges, who replied first to the challenge, tribal council results, etc. These pieces of information will help you cast your final vote for the Sole Survivor. Jury members may talk amongst themselves about the game but are strictly prohibited from talking to other castaways still in the game. If it is found that you have broken this rule, you will be removed from the jury and will not get to vote for the Sole Survivor.
5. You will be required to post confessionals at least once a week. This is equivalent to talking to a camera and airing out your feelings about fellow tribemates and the game. If you do not post confessionals, I will have to make up whatever I want about you in the episodes. So do yourself a favor and send them in as often as possible.
6. You should have access to a computer at least once a day/night to receive and send information about immunity challenges and tribal councils. This is not required but is highly recommended for a better outcome for yourself in the game.
7. The host's word and decision is always final. Do not accuse the host of cheating or manipulating the game to suit someone as this will never happen. All twists and challenges of the game have already been planned before the game has begun. They have not been thrown in to hinder a strong tribe, etc. Players caught cheating will be dealt with appropriately. Also, if anyone quits during the course of the game, the remaining survivors will then be allowed to vote someone that has been previously eliminated back into the game.
8. Once voted out of the game, you must send the host your final words. If you are voted out of the game, please do not take it out on anyone. Let me remind you that this is only a game for entertainment purposes only. There is no reward for being the Sole Survivor other than obtaining the title. Please enjoy yourself. An episode lasts 2 days (3 days on weekends), and the season will begin as soon as the 16 castaways have been selected and will last approximately 34 days. There will be a total of 4 seasons followed by a final season which will be called Survivor: The Ultimate Cyber Space Challenge. This final season will be comprised of the final 4 castaways from each previous season. This will be the best of the best and something you will not want to miss!
