RULES
HOW THE GAME WORKS
Just like the CBS series, the game will last for 39 days and will play out in 2 or 3-day cycles. Each cycle will consist of challenges, for both reward and immunity, and conclude with Tribal Council, where someone will be voted out of the game.
TRIBE DYNAMIC
In the early half of the game, the castaways will be divided into tribes. These are effectively your teams for that duration of the game. If you win the immunity challenge, your entire tribe will be safe and will advance in the game. If your tribe loses the challenge, your tribe will instead face Tribal Council and one of you will be voted out of the game.
During this stage of the game you are only permitted to speak to people on your tribe. Each tribe will have their own group PM that will function as their “camp.” This is for you to talk as a tribe, but also where Tribal Councils will take place until the merge.
PERSONAL MESSAGES BETWEEN CASTAWAYS
You are permitted to talk privately with a member of your tribe via PM. I must be included on all PMs. You are not permitted to quote the conversations in these PMs anywhere else, but you are permitted to paraphrase as much as you’d like.
If someone is not on your tribe, you are not permitted to correspond with them via PM regarding the game.
CONFESSIONALS
Each castaway will have their own PM with me that will be their “Confessional PM.” This is away for you to share your thoughts on the game as it is going on or to ask me any questions regarding the game. At some point during each cycle, I will send out questions for you to respond to regarding the events of that cycle. Some of your confessionals will be shared in the Green Room and/or after the game concludes.
REWARD IMMUNITY CHALLENGES
All reward and immunity challenges will be posted in the main thread. Reward challenges will give out advantages in the next immunity challenge or for the game overall, while immunity challenges will grant safety from the Tribal Council vote.
All rules will be set prior to the start of the challenge. Typically, the deadline to submit will be 24 hours after the challenge is initially posted, but this may not always be the case. All eligible castaways are expected to participate in each challenge.
Some challenges will play out on a website outside of Pulse. This will require you to screenshot your results. Submissions without a screenshot verifying your results will not be accepted.
You will submit your results for any challenge in your private confessional PM with me.
TRIBAL COUNCIL
Every 2-3 days, the losing tribe or the merged tribe as a whole will visit Tribal Council, where someone will be voted out of the game. Voting for Tribal Council will usually last for 24 hours following the posting of the Immunity Challenge results. This window may be shortened at various points in the game.
A list of questions will be provided for the castaways attending Tribal Council prior to their visit. Select answers will be chosen to be a part of that particular Tribal Council. Feel free to speak your mind, but know that there is a chance all your fellow tribe members will see your response.
All castaways must vote at every Tribal Council they are required to attend. No exceptions. Failure to vote will result in a vote cast against you. If there is a tie vote, a tiebreaker will be used to determine who goes home.
At first, Tribal Councils will be posted in your tribe’s PM and remain private from the other tribe. Once the tribes merge into one, the Tribal Councils will be posted in the main thread.
AFTER BEING VOTED OUT
Once you are voted out of the game, you are no longer permitted to post in the main thread or speak to anyone regarding the game. Castaways voted out prior to the jury will be granted access to the Green Room to discuss the game. The castaways that make up the jury will be sent a link to Ponderosa where they will be able to speak with their fellow jury members prior to the Final Tribal Council.
Following their elimination, each castaway will be required to make one final statement that will be posted in the main thread consisting of their final thoughts on their game. You must do this within 12 hours of being voted out.
TWISTS
Throughout the game there may be twists to shake up the game. The rules of any twist will be explained at the reveal of the twist.
The Hidden Immunity Idol is a twist that has become commonplace in Survivor. If you find a Hidden Immunity Idol this will grant you safety if played correctly at Tribal Council. You will need to express your desire to play a Hidden Immunity Idol when you vote for that particular Tribal Council. If a Hidden Immunity Idol is played, all votes for that person do not count and the person with the next highest number of votes will be eliminated.
FINAL TRIBAL COUNCIL
On Day 39 (August 20, 2017), Final Tribal Council will take place. The finalists will face the jury and the winner will be determined. Each finalist will be given the opportunity to make an opening statement. Then, each juror will ask the finalists a question and the finalists will then respond. Following a closing statement by each finalist, the jury members will then vote for who they fell deserves to win the game and earn the title of Sole Survivor. The finalist with the most votes will be crowned the winner.
ADDITIONAL RULES
Please refrain from posting in the main thread if you are not an active participant in the game.
Please do not edit posts in the main thread or quote PMs in the main thread. Official game posts by the mods may be edited to correct errors.
“Three strikes and you're out rule” – All castaways are expected to compete in every challenge and Tribal Council vote they are eligible for. If you miss deadline three times, you will be pulled from the game for being inactive. There will be opportunities to have people sit out of challenges during the tribe phase of the game. If you know you will not be able to compete in a challenge on a particular day - please offer to sit out of the challenge. This will not count as a strike toward you.
Rules may be added at any time or changed at my discretion.

Tribe Division Spidey Probst: Welcome to Pulse Survivor: New Caledonia! Before we can get started, it is time to reveal the two tribes. The first tribe will be named Lifou and they will wear green:Francesca ( irice22), Jane ( Kanenrá:ke), Natalie ( Zach), Nick ( nick64), Sarah ( SHOOTER), Tarzan (@walker9), Todd ( ry4n), Tony ( awesomecharts), Twila ( Leo ✔), and Wes ( Normi) Spidey Probst: The other tribe will be named Maré and will wear purple: Brendan ( Sambalada), Brett ( Dylan :)), Candice ( think pink.), Ciera ( surfy), Jeff ( mcsteamy) Jenna (@jessielou), Kelley ( matteeeb), Michaela ( wavey.✨️), Will ( .It'sGriffin), and Yul ( Leaf) Spidey Probst: These will be your tribes for the foreseeable future. You are only allowed to discuss the game with the members of your tribe. Be on the look out for your Tribe PM. This will serve as your camp for this stage of the game. All Tribal Councils will take place in these PMs as well until the merge. But before you head out to your camps, I need to reveal the big twist of the season... |

Temptation Island Spidey Probst: This season's big twist is called Temptation Island. Throughout the season, many of you will come to this very island where you will be tempted with offers of power, safety, and even big decisions in the game. But... every temptation accepted will come with a consequence that could affect one contestant, one tribe, or the game as a whole. You do not have to accept an offer, but once a temptation is offered... it will never be offered again. Spidey Probst: It is now time to reveal the first temptation. On this island are two Individual Immunity Necklaces, one for each tribe. The first person to claim the necklace for their tribe will receive immunity from the first Tribal Council you attend in this game. If you decide to accept the temptation, you must be the first person to post you want the necklace in your Confessional PM. Decide if you want the temptation and if not, head out to your camp to get to know your new tribe members.Tribe PMs will be created momentarily. You are now free to talk in this thread. Good luck everyone! |

Temptation Island Spidey Probst: Two of you were tempted enough to take the Individual Immunity Necklaces. Before I reveal the consequence of this decision, let's find out who claimed the necklaces for their respective tribes: Tarzan (@walker9) - Lifou  Jeff ( mcsteamy) - Maré Spidey Probst: Both Tarzan (@walker9) and Jeff (mcsteamy) have earned Individual Immunity at their first Tribal Council visits. Now it's time to reveal the consequence. Those Tribal Councils... will be happening tonight. By the end of Day 1, two people will have been voted out of this game. Both tribes will be visiting Tribal Council and voting someone out. You have the day to figure out who that will be. |

Tribal Council VotingIt is now time to vote for Tribal Council. Here's how it works: - You will vote in your Confessional PM for who you want to see leave the game. - Once you submit your vote, it is final and cannot be changed. - The person with the most votes will be eliminated from the game. Tribal Council QuestionsPlease answer these questions with as much as you would like to reveal. These questions are part of the voting process. Your responses should be in the same post as your vote. Some of these answers will be selected to appear in the Tribal Council post. Be aware your fellow tribe members may see your responses. 1. What are your first impressions of your tribe? 2. What did you think of Jeff ( mcsteamy) and Tarzan (@walker9) taking the first Temptation? 3. Who deserves to go home first from your tribe and why? Votes and responses to Tribal Council questions are due by 5:00 p.m. ET. Each Tribal Council will be posted in the tribe's PM.When submitting your vote please have it on a separate line from your question responses and put it in bold.

Immunity Challenge
Spidey Probst: Welcome to your first Immunity Challenge! Both tribes are getting a look at who was eliminated at the surprise Day 1 Tribal Council. Ciera and Natalie were both eliminated. Today's challenge is called "Temple Run" and here's how it works:Each tribe member will play the mobile game Temple Run. ( Apple, Android) You each will have 24 hours from this post to achieve your highest score. No submissions will be accepted after this deadline. Once you feel like you have obtained your best score, you must submit a screenshot of your score to your Confessional PM. No scores will be accepted without a screenshot. A series of face-offs will then take place. Each tribe will select an order they will go in, competing against the opposing tribe. The tribe who wins the most face-offs after nine rounds will win Immunity for their tribe. Tribes will be able to discuss their scores and strategize throughout the challenge. Use this to your advantage to achieve your best scores possible – no one wants to be the next voted out. You must decide the order your tribe will go before anyone on your tribe attempts the challenge.Spidey Probst: The winning tribe will also win fire in the form of flint. Does everyone understand the rules? Let's get started! |

Ciera's Final Words"um well, okay. I had a feeling I was going for some reason, so I'm not shocked. But actually seeing my name up there before even getting a chance to play... it hurts? I don't know what I did. I don't know what I could've done. I feel like I did everything I needed to do as a player, and um... yeah. This was fun? I'm rooting for a select few of you. oh and POST SCRIPT IT REALLY IRKS ME THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T EVEN VOTE/PARTICIPATE AND THEY MADE IT FURTHER THAN I DID." - Ciera ( surfy)

Natalie's Final Words"It was great participating in my first Survivor game here. I met new some really awesome new people and it was fun even if it only lasted a day. Due to how early in the game the vote was and the fact that I knew little about other players I could do little other than sit back and watch while things played out on that first day. I'm not surprised that I was voted out. I'll be following the game closely and wish all players the best in their game." - Natalie ( Zach)
