How do we filter out the teases? We don't let them in. This goes for the guys, too. Because sometimes the guys are tapped out. But check your lease, man. Because you're living in **** CITY!


Welcome to Day 2. I hope you are all settled in with your tribes and ready to compete for real, because from this point, your tribe depends on you. Your successes are their successes, your mistakes are their mistakes. And just one of those can get you thrown out of **** City.

READ THIS THREAD CAREFULLY! INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NEXT CHALLENGE ARE IN IT!

The Rules (For You Lucky Non-Survivor Fans):

45 players, 4 tribes, 1 ****e. Welcome, to **** City

Each 'day' is marked by a new challenge. Each tribe will receive team challenges (instructions for challenges will be explained for each challenge). Right answers during challenges will obviously earn points and wrong answers will be worth none (and sometimes penalize you, depending on the challenge). The TWO tribes with the most points at the end of the 'day' (or round) wins immunity. The TWO tribes with the least points must vote off one of their members via PM in a tribal council. As long as there are four tribes, there will be two tribal councils each day. In the case of a tie at tribal council, there will be a tie-breaker challenge. Also, in this game... immunity may be decided by something other than trivia. You will be completely briefed on this before it happens, so do not fret. In the event of any ties, there will be a tie breaker question in which a tie will not be possible.

If your tribe happens to win first place three days in a row, then they'll be given a gift in addition to their immunity: they'll go to tribal council on behalf of the other tribe and they'll vote off ANYONE IN THE GAME THAT THEY CHOOSE.

At some point the tribes will be merged into one tribe. Only the hosts will know about this day until the time it actually happens. There may be additional twists and turns throughout the game, so do not get too cozy.

Hype! Survivor is a game of both strategy and deception. Alliances are both permitted, and encouraged. So find a friend, and sex their brains out. Masterminding and forethought are the keys to success. Laziness and ineffective play will both be penalized and exposed. Hosts have the right to intervene at any point in the game for the sake of keeping dead weight out. As a side note: alliances can be with any of the 45 players... doesn't matter who they are... doesn't matter what tribes they're on... just make sure it's someone you trust... or not. As the old saying goes: keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

The final Jury will be composed of 7 people: everyone voted off from the remaining nine players who didn't make the finals. The Jury and only the Jury will vote FOR WHO THEY THINK SHOULD WIN of the final two remaining players to find the winner of the Hype! Survivor.

A note on cheating: It's very easy to cheat in this game. Very, very easy. Some of the rounds will be much more difficult to cheat at than others (some will be downright impossible to cheat on). Regardless, hosts have ways of catching you, and sometimes will even set up traps for you. If you feel you have to cheat, by all means, go ahead... but if you're caught, you WILL be penalized. Again, specific rules of what's legal or not will be in each challenge PM.

This game will not support dead weight. If the host feels at any time that you are dead weight he reserves the right to boot you and replace you. Also, if your tribe feels that you are dead weight, they may petition me for your removal from the game and replacement with someone else at which point your case will be heard and it will be decided.. To remove a player from the tribe who you feel is dead weight, the captain of the tribe must petition me via PM. I will decide if this petition is valid, and if approved the tribe will vote and a majority vote will remove the dead weight player, even if you are not going to tribal council

This game will feature the return of Exile Island. The losing tribe has a player removed from their tribe from tribal council. The winning tribe picks who goes. This person is safe from tribal council but also forfeits his or her vote.

These rules are subject to change at any time with absolutely no warning. They are more of guidelines for the game. Specific rules for each challenge will be issued via Challenge PM. Any dispute with the host will be settled through the Ghost Host who will reveal himself when he sees fit. He is a neutral party who will look at the dispute and decide who is in the wrong (it will probably be you, though). Just have fun and play your hardest and everything will be fine

Assume everything is Eastern Time Zone.

A few things worth mentioning:

Exile Island is returning this game. For details read the rules. So whichever tribe scores the least ammount of points during this challenge, will have to send someone to Exile Island.

The Upside? The hidden immunity idol is returning as well. It will be hidden somewhere on the Hype by the time this challenge is over. Each exile will get a clue as to its location.

FOR THE NEW PLAYERS, CAPTAINS HAVE NO MORE AUTHORITY OR IMMUNITY THAN YOU! YOU CAN VOTE THEM OUT AT ANY TIME JUST LIKE YOU WOULD VOTE OUT ANY OTHER PLAYER. THE ONLY THING IS, ONCE VOTED OUT, THE PLAYERS WHO VOTED AGAINST THE CAPTAIN (AND ONLY THOSE PLAYERS) GET TO ELECT A NEW ONE!


Now, onto the challenge. I was too lazy to come up with a new one, so I am recycling challenge number 2 from the last game I hosted. :oldrazz:

PMs will not be sent out for this challenge!

This challenge will require photoshop and creativity. Neither of which I have, so I am dumping my duty off on you. Each tribe will be assigned a tribe name and theme. From there you must create the following things:

A tribe flag (featuring your mascot

A tribe grid - In the grid you should have each of your names, a background related to your theme, and some sort of avatar for yourself.

A game banner - Using GOB Bluth and the **** City theme.

They should all be in JPEG form and saved to photo bucket or something.

Here are your tribe names/themes

Tribe 1 - Judge Reinhold and the Hung Jury (because this is a legal theme, I encourage the use of Barry Zuckerkorn and Bob Loblaw in your banner)
Captain - Asteroid Man
PapaKeelo
The-Dark-Knight
Twylight
Kritish
Bullets

Tribe 2 - Dr. Tobias Funke's Blue Men
Captain - FarmerFran
DBella
StorminNorman
X-Chick
Showtime029
TheIncredibleHulk

Tribe 3 - Franklin's Children All Over Town
Captain - Erzengel
Mee
Toven
TheOriginalBamfer
HunterRider
Union_Jak

Tribe 4 - The Bluth Family
Captain - Karea07
DarrenDaring
Cantthinkofaname
Darthphere
Byrd_Man
Maximum_Carnage
Daisy

As you can see, each tribe name has a theme that is some how related to our god, GOB Bluth. In other words, all the tribes are based on the television series, Arrested Development. If unfamiliar with the show, do some research. Wikipedia is your friend.

All of your work must be submitted in JPEG or GIF form BY YOUR CAPTAIN NO LATER THAN 1 PM EST TIME ON MONDAY

After you submit, these will be judged by a panel of die hard Arrested Development fans. The two tribes with the top scores will win immunity. The TWO tribes with the lowest scores, will go to tribal council. You have 72 hours. Good luck.
 
See, if you watch Arrested Development, you'll know it is the greatest show ever and quite possibly the greatest thing ever. Therefore, this challenge is great. If you've never seen Arrested Development, I must insist you kill yourself at once.
 
editted the original post. You can make your mascot or banners in GIF form.
 
matt are there any size/dimension requirements or however big or small we want em?

Just be reasonable. I don't want something that takes up half a page.

Arrested Development is so ****ing overrated. More so than Family Guy.

Also, JPEG or GIF? PNG FTW!
 
The Bluth Family has been disqualified for Darthphere's ridiculous statements :cmad:
 
You only get mad because deep down, you know it's true.

Nonsense. Arrested Development by definition can't be overrated. Not enough people watched, hell, are even aware of it for it to be overrated.

Which definition? I mean, any crap on the internet becomes an internet sensation, but the level of quality atrributed to anything, can be overrated. As, it's quality is rated over what it actually is. Arrested Development is not as good as people online and the 5 people who watched it on TV say it is, therefore it can be called "overrated" and rightfully so.
 
Matt, for the grid, it doesn't have to be our picture, right? I mean, it can be any picture that we want to 'represent' as ourselves?

:up:
 
Oh, and also on Karea's suggestion I would like you to all make profiles and post them here. Its not part of the challenge, just something to help you guys get to know each other better.

Names
Ages
Occupations
Hobbies
AIM handles so you can communicate with tribes and allies easier
etc. Anything you want to put.

So yeah, do that if you'd like.

But who are you to say its not as good in quality as people think?
