I have taken the liberty to provide you with the rules regarding your mission. Please read and confirm your understanding with an affirmative post in this thread.
Rules
- Revealing ANY significant personal information (ie: real life identity, screen names, forum nicknames, AIM names, or any other contact information or identity information) is STRICTLY prohibited and will result in an IMMEDIATE ban, NO QUESTIONS ASKED. Anything that can be construed as giving away your ID is about as serious an offense as you can get so tread lightly.
- Use of a proxy to hide your IP address is not allowed. If you absolutely need one for a specific reason, confer with a host.
- All information about this game is to only be discussed here, on this forum. If you discuss it anywhere else and it is discovered, you will be removed from the game IMMEDIATELY, NO QUESTIONS ASKED. If you have anyone who wants information on the game, please advise a host ASAP. Sharing information with them is not acceptable. We will contact them (and have some serious questions as to why they are asking you).
- If you have any issues and you cannot reach the game board, contact Ripley at one of these sites:
strandedaustralia.proboards.com/ (username Jenna)
somethingtodo.freeforums.net/ (username theghost)
orgyuniverse.jcink.net/ (username theghost)
deviantorgs.jcink.net/ (username theghost)
Failing that, contact Ripley at ghostofjohnbelushi@hotmail.com
- All private messages should be kept and not deleted (for blogging purposes and so that episodes can potentially be written at the end of the season). This includes Outbox messages which are just as important. Please do not delete either.
- Any threats towards someone's life or physical well-being is absolutely not tolerated and will result in an immediate banning of the offending parties involved. If someone feels threatened by a joke, it will be considered a serious offense with serious punishment. These games are meant to be fun. Don't ruin someone else's.
- Do not change any details on your account. Including signatures. Ask a host for permission first. The account is registered under the host's email, so it is on loan for you to use.
- Do not go invisible without permission (unlikely it will be granted).
- If you are no longer able to play, please advise the hosts as soon as possible. It is at the hosts direction, scheduling wise, as to whether their departure replaces a scheduled elimination.
- If you go inactive for 72 hours in a row without forewarning the hosts, then you will be rendered inactive and potentially be removed from the game. We reserve the right to replace or remove anyone who is deemed inactive at any point in the game. If you know you will be going inactive for a period, simply PM one of the hosts or post in your confessional and we don't remove you.
In-Game Rules:
- You are to only send private messages to those on your tribe. As tribes may change throughout the game, please be aware of who you are eligible to message. If unsure, ask a host. Also remember to not use PM chains involving any players who have been voted out of the game.
- Individual Immunity is not subject to be given away unless the hosts decide it can be.
- You will be given a time at Tribal Council where votes are final. After this time any vote or votes changes you make will not count.
- As Tribal Councils are live, in the event of a tie, there will be an opportunity to re-vote, your previous vote will count for the re-vote unless you make a change. If there is still a tie, we will resort to a form of random elimination between any non-immune, non-tied parties.* It will be a number draw, which will allow players to choose numbers in a first come/first served basis ONLY if all those who are required to draw a Rock have been active at that Tribal Council. If there are absences, the order determined by the time of your FINALISED vote (first vote, not re-vote). One of the numbers will be coloured differently to the others and the person who draws this will be eliminated. The assignment of which number is coloured different will be done via a random.org entry by the hosts.
- Please note that any tied vote that goes to re-votes will see your initially submitted vote re-used unless you either 1) change your vote in the re-vote period; 2) specify a re-vote target in your voting thread beforehand; 3) leave a preference list, in which case the FIRST person listed who is not immune will be your vote. If the person you have voted for initially is immune in a re-vote situation and your do not change your vote or have an alternative listed, you will incur a self-vote.**
- You can pre-vote for every Tribal Council using your Votes thread. You do not need to be active at Tribal Council for your vote to count, simply leaving a valid vote at any time means you have voted successfully. You can change your vote in your voting thread up until the deadline when votes are fine by making a new post. You can also leave a preference list with the highest placed non-immune party being deemed as your valid vote.
- If you do not place a vote, then a vote will be cast for yourself. This will double at each subsequent self-vote, no matter when it occurs.
- If you are eliminated from the game, it is expected your final comment will be to say goodbye to those who remain. Any in-game knowledge you may have is NOT TO BE DISCLOSED PUBLICLY. You may only share this information with those who are also out of the game in the appropriate game board area you will be given access to. If you are not online or take too long, you may be moved before you can post a comment. In this instance, the hosts will not allow any further comments to be posted.
Expectations:
- As Immunity Challenges are non-live, we do expect you to undertake them. You will have approximately 24 hours to complete them and most will not be more than half an hour at most.
- There will be a live event approximately every second night. Live events will predominantly be Tribal Council and the finale, however there may be other events advertised as the hosts' discretion. No live events are scheduled for Saturday nights but due to the spaced scheduling, there may be some on Friday nights. Attendance is not mandatory.
- Your account is your account only, the hosts will not do anything to affect your experience such as reading unread PMs or sending PMs or posting on your behalf. This also means that you are agreeing that only you are using your account. However, the hosts will periodically log in to your account to read your PMs for blogging purposes. Do not change the password. If need be, the hosts can change it, but it should not be required.
- Do not edit or delete any posts. If you do so without host permission, you will receive a warning. If you continue to do so, the hosts will take action to penalise you. This board does have plugins installed to prevent deleting posts and also disables editing after 5 minutes, however these plugins may not work on mobile devices. Please know the hosts can view security logs that outline edited or deleted posts.
- Taking screenshots of private messages and using them on the forum is PROHIBITED. Quoting private messages is also PROHIBITED unless it is for use in your notes and votes section ONLY. If you are found to have broken this rule, you will receive a penalty from the hosts. No questions asked. If you want to paraphrase what someone has said, that is fine. Just use your own words.
- Players still in the game may ONLY send private messages to others still in the game or hosts. You are not to PM anyone who is out of the game (losers, jury members or lurkers). This includes GROUP PMs, so make sure you start a new one if someone is voted out. Those out of the game can ONLY send private messages to the hosts.
- If you have a complaint about a ruling at the challenge, make a public post at the time, so that we may deal with it accordingly. We will address every complaint; however, do not think that we will easily accept every little nitpicking detail. Be respectful. If a judgment call has to be made, we will make it as fair and unbiased as humanly possible. Our ruling following this will be final and arguing beyond this will lead to a severe penalty. If necessary you will be removed from the game. You need to bear in mind that human error can occur and as much as we plan and test things, in order to bring you innovative concepts some things can be missed. Arguing after our final ruling will do you NO FAVOURS.
- Be respectful when arguing. This game is for all of you, as players. We are doing our utmost to create a positive experience for you. If we feel you are detracting from that in any way, we will take action. And as above, if necessary, you will be removed.
- If you compete in a live event (ie: challenge, tribal, twist, decision, anything...) then please do not make the rest of us sit around waiting until you return. If you do not return in time to take responsibility for what you participated in, then we will make a judgment call on whether or not we will continue without you.
- These rules/expectations may be added to during the game at the hosts' discretion.
Please also note that this ORG is rated
Expect this to be very non-politically correct and discussion may involve topics that may be prohibited in other ORGs.
The hosts will be lenient in this regard but if we ask you to tone it done, please consider us as being completely serious.
Having said that, there is to be NO posting of images of anything obscene, which includes nudity or gore. And there's no loopholes, dead cat pictures are considered gore.
This is your game - your responsibility is to have fun. But be respectful.
We will penalise players who flout our authority. All host decisions are FINAL. Don't test us, we don't want to make disciplinary decisions but we will if we have to.
