Default Survivor Season 2: Pog Island [GAME THREAD]



Outwit. Outplay. Outlast. Survivor: Pog Island.

The rules of the game are simple: several average 2p2ers are abandoned in the middle of one of the most unforgiving places on earth: Pog Island. This small island village, plagued by werewolves, mafia families, serial killers, and flying pumpkins is where they make their home.

Divided into two tribes, they participate in challenges every day; every night, the losing tribe must trek to Tribal Council to vote out one of their own.

Halfway through the game, the game shifts to individual competitions when the tribes merge and become one, making the game every man for himself.

The game is simple: Outwit, Outplay, Outlast. Whether through politics or by winning Immunity (protected you from recieving votes at Tribal Council), the goal is to be the last man standing. However, the players must be careful about who they send packing--after the merge, a jury of seven begins to form. At the end of the game, they vote for one of the members of the final two to win One Million Dollars (... that may not be in the budget, but we're working on some fun prizes anyway).

Who will be the sole Survivor?




THE FIRST TWIST

There are SEVENTEEN survivor participants. They are as follows:

MDoranD
Alex Levin
LuckayLuck
HerbieGRD
FCBLComish
metsandfinsfan
chuckleslovakian
CallMeIshmael
dmk
Zurvan
Boiler_bd
Nicholasp27
ScottHoward
His Boy Elroy
Neil S
valenzuela
MaxxDaddy


Rather than start divided into tribes, the first Immunity Challenge and Tribal Council will be every man for himself! What does this mean?

An immunity challenge will be posted shortly. All contestants will have until <font color="red">THURSDAY, 9 PM Eastern</font> to submit their answers. The player with the highest score on this challenge will win immunity. ANY PLAYER FAILING TO SUBMIT AN ENTRY WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GAME PRIOR TO TRIBAL COUNCIL.

The purposes of this are:
1) Weed out any non-participants early on.
2) If, after weeding out the non-participants, we have an odd number of players, one will be removed at Tribal Council. After that, the game will be split into two tribes.

Pre-emptive FAQ:

Q: Can I speak with other players, despite not being in tribes yet?
A: Yes -- as of RIGHT NOW, all 17 players may talk to any other player, via any private or public method of communication (IM/PM/this thread).

Q: Can I talk to other players about THIS IMMUNITY CHALLENGE once it is posted?
A: No, you may not. That is the ONLY thing off-limits.

Q: Will I always be able to talk to all players?
A: No. After the first tribal council, the game will be divided into two tribes. At that point, you will only be able to talk to players in your tribe, except in this thread.

Q: What happens if someone wins immunity, but a player gets booted for not participating. We'll have an even number, and you said that means no tribal council!
A: If a tribal council is unnecessary to make even numbers (because 1 or 3 or 5 people fail to submit entries), then the immunity winner will gain a reward. For a point of reference, in Season 1, the secret reward was the ability to swap one player for another between tribes.

Good luck to all the participants!

THE CHALLENGE

There are three categories for this challenge: Movies, Television, and Music. I will post 5 partial/mangled images for each category -- screenshots for TV/Movies, album covers for Music. Each player must complete the following information:

Television -- TV Show, Character's Name, Actor's Name
Movie - Movie Title, Character's Name, Actor's Name
Music - Band Name, Album Title, Original Year of Album Release

This challenge will run until <font color="red">THURSDAY, 9 PM Eastern</font>. Since there are 45 potential points, I'm assuming there will be no ties. If there are, or more than one player gets 100% of the answers correct, then the first player to submit wins immunity.

Answers will only be accepted by PM's titled WHAT THE HELL IS IT CHALLENGE. Players may submit multiple times, but I will only use the last PM submitted before Noon Tomorrow.

ANY PLAYER FAILING TO SUBMIT AN ENTRY WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GAME BEFORE THE TRIBAL COUNCIL. I will attempt to ensure there is at least a couple "gimme" points in here, but if you don't know a single one, then guess -- there is no penalty for wrong answers. If you can't come up with an educated guess, make stuff up and submit anyway.

Images coming in about 30 minutes. Commence complaints about how this was the hardest challenge of Survivor Season 1.

All resources, except for other people (both players and non-players [friends, family, etc]) are fair game. So google away.

Here goes. You have until <font color="red">THURSDAY, 9 PM Eastern</font>.

Answers will only be accepted by PM's titled WHAT THE HELL IS IT CHALLENGE. Players may submit multiple times, but I will only use the last PM submitted before the deadline (in my last post, this said Noon tomorrow. The bold, red deadline is the correct one, I just forgot to change it).

ANY PLAYER FAILING TO SUBMIT AN ENTRY WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GAME BEFORE THE TRIBAL COUNCIL.

One point is awarded for each of the following, in their respective categories.

Television -- TV Show, Character's Name, Actor's Name
Movie - Movie Title, Character's Name, Actor's Name
Music - Band Name, Album Title, Original Year of Album Release

RESTRICTIONS

You cannot get assistance from any person (Survivor contestant, POGger, real life friends or family). All other resources are fair game, including the internets.



TELEVISION














MOVIES














MUSIC
