SURVIVOR 20 - HEROES VS. VILLIANS

Welcome back to The LOD - Survivor 20 Heroes vs. Villians! Glad to see you! Hope you all had wonderful holidays! For anyone that doesn't know me, allow me to introduce myself. I am MJewel and I am your hostess for the LOD. I hope you all come back and join in for this season of the LOD.

I would like to give a big, huge THANK-YOU! to Tribe for the graphics in the game...the graphics are spectacular as always! .

This will be the first entry thread/sign-up and rules all combined into one. By picking your survivor you are signing up to play. This first week, picks are first come, first serve! So come on in and join in for another season of Survivor and the LOD and let's have some fun!

I want to give a shout out to last season's winner of the LOD...Kircon...congratulations again Kircon!

If you are interested in playing in this season's Luck of the Draw Game, please see the rules below!

RULES

Each week I will post between 6 to 12 "happenings" with positive or negative point values for each one. (Example: 1PT Each time your survivor is shown eating).

Each week, you will be asked to pick one survivor. Please put your survivor’s name in the Subject Line. Depending on the number of players we have this year, a survivor may or may not be picked a maximum of 2 times, so please put the survivor's name in the subject line and if it is the first or second time they have been picked. (Example: Elizabeth-1, Elizabeth-2).

You must make your pick by 5 pm EST (Board Time) or before I post the picks/draws list the day the show airs. If you fail to make your pick by this time, than you will have your torch snuffed! In other words, you will be eliminated from the game.

After all picks have been made, I will draw out of my lucky Pink Pittsburgh Steeler Capthe name of another survivor who will also play for you (along with your pick). Your draw pick will be posted before show time each week. Your total score will be the combined points that your pick and draw survivors generate.

Each week I will post your weekly and accumulative scores.

Depending on how many players choose to play, I will eliminate the players with the two lowest scores. The one exception to the elimination process will be non-posters. They will always be eliminated before low scorers.

Special note on confessionals: For game scoring - confessionals will be counted when they are separate. Example: Cirie is shown talking in a confessional, then they show a view of camp then back to Cirie speaking. Next, Colby is shown in a confessional. Then Cirie is shown again in a confessional. This would be 2 confessionals for Cirie and 1 for Colby.

Bonuses

First pick bonus will be done by everyone's name being thrown into my Steelers Cap and I will pull two names. Those two players will then have first pick in the LOD for the week. It will be totally based on luck of the draw. I will post a specific time they have to make their choice by and if they have not picked before that time - picks are open to all.

The "ohmyheck" Bonus will be returning but not until next week.

The Heroes vs. Villians Bonus:

You need to tell me somewhere in this thread who you think will win in the end a hero or a villian. You do not have to name a survivor. Just tell me whether a hero or a villian will prevail and win Survivor 20. There will be more on this later. This bonus will change and evolve throughout the season. You will be able to change your answer from week to week but keep in mind you may lose points on the bonus along the way if you change it up. Choose wisely and more on this bonus next week.

The First Pick Bonus will start with next weeks entry. This week is first come first serve so to speak .
