Application

 * 1) Contestants must be 16 years old and above. No hormonal teenagers in this game, thanks.
 * 2) Aspiring survivors must sumbit a COMPLETE application form. Incomplete ones will not be considered. We don't necessarily need a novel-long profile, but it has to be convincing enough. Sell yourself to the hosts as if they are a panel led by Lynne Spillman.
 * 3) Depending on the number of applicants, hosts may whittle down the pool of applicants until they arrive with satisfying number of semifinalists.
 * 4) Depending on the number of applicants, hosts may conduct an Skype interview for each aspiring survivor. Once the interviews are done, the hosts will deliberate on which of the applicants will be in the final roster of 18.
 * 5) There will be two tribes of nine: the red Mapoyo, and the yellow Arawak.
 * 6) All applications will be sent through this email: survivorwiki@yahoo.com.

Participation

 * 1) Contestants must be dedicated in entire 39 days of filming. If at any time a player is unable to be committed, he must notify the hosts as soon as possible. If a contestant has to quit the game due to exogenous factors, he or she has to inform the hosts immediately. If a contestant voluntarily leaves the game during the jury phase, it will be at the hosts' discretion if the quitter earns a jury seat. The quitter's body of work throughout the game will ultimately be studied.
 * 2) Contestants are required to make video confessionals about at least once a day. From challenges, camp life and strategy, contestants must chronicle their virtual island life. These confessionals will be kept from public viewing until after the season is over.
 * 3) Unless sitting out, contestants are required to compete in challenges. Unless stated otherwise, challenges are to be completed within a 24-time period. Contestants are expected to adjust according to their time zones as do the hosts. Challenges may be live or non-live. While there are no penalties for not participating, inactivity could cause a tribe the challenge.
 * 4) Not being able to submit a vote at Tribal Council within the given deadline will automatically incur a contestant a self-vote.
 * 5) Players are NOT ALLOWED to talk to the other tribe unless explicitly said by the hosts. After a swap, players may not talk to their former tribemates. Even in an online game, players should consider themselves stranded on a real island. Let's keep it real, shall we?
 * 6) Hosts will announce whether or not the Tribal Council is going to be held live or not. Tribal Council posts must be taken very seriously. Players are encouraged to answer any question the hosts throw at them (rest assured questions are likely not to adulterate their standing in the game). Any comment from non-participants (whether it's from the other tribe or a mere spectator) will be deleted on the spot.
 * 7) Contestants are expected to be in their most appropriate behavior. Hosts reserve the right to edit confessionals for the episodes.
 * 8) Unless stated otherwise, challenge submissions will be sent through this email:  survivorwiki@yahoo.com. 

Challenges

 * 1) Challenges may be one of the following formats:
 * Tree Mail will be posted 12-24 hours before a challenge.
 * Doing screenshots - Players may only post Photobucket links (meaning, uploading game-related stuff on the wiki is not allowed). Players must ensure that the photo shows up. In any case, using any photo-alteration software is not allowed and will merit disqualification from the challenge.
 * At some points, live challenges will be administered. At a certain time, all competitors are expected to be on Skype for the challenge as the challenge will end after that call. The hosts will announce through Tree Mail if it is a live challenge or not.
 * Cheating in challenges will disqualify a player from a challenge. Furthermore, any software or form of getting around challenge rules are prohibited.
 * Challenge results will only be posted by the hosts.

Rule Amendments

 * 1) Hosts always reserve the right to add new riles and/or make amendments if they see fit (i.e. loopholes found in certain challenges).
 * 2) Twists will also be administered without notice.

Hidden Immunity Idol

 * 1) Each tribe has a Hidden Immunity Idol. A series of words will be given to the tribes which they have to arrange in the predetermined order set by the hosts. Once a player gets the correct sequence, he will receive a picture of the idol. Players may send only one (1) entry every four hours. For this inaugurual season (Venezuela), we have set two correct codes per tribe, one for the idol, and another for a special twist the hosts have prepared.

Non-Participants

 * 1) ORGs outside Endure are not allowed to advertise their games in the Survivor Wiki. Doing so will have your message deleted and your account to be blocked.
 * 2) Talking to players about game-related information will merit a year-long block from the Survivor Wiki, and removal from the Survivor Wiki Facebook group.
