On May 31, 2010, Andy Dehnart published Survivor’s presumably-then-applicable Contestant Contract and Rules. And CBS demanded that the texts be removed from the Reality Blurred site.

However, CBS having failed to pursue their claim of copyright infringement (and Mr. Dehnart having asserted that his was ‘Fair Use’ of the material), the content was restored to Reality Blurred in August of 2010. And there it remains.

The Contract is here.

And the Rules are here.

The Rule applicable to the ‘Purple Rock’ begins on Page 7 at 10 – vi. The ‘Full Screen’ button that makes reading the script so much easier is located at the bottom of the right-side, sliding bar.

Note: These documents are peppered with the phrase "... at the producer's discretion", so just how relevant they are (or were) to discussions about what might happen at any given Tribal Council is (and was) questionable.

Another Note: It isn't possible to copy and paste excerpts from these documents. I did screen print the text and then create a graphic of the 'Purple Rock' section. But although I'm rather confident that the horse has left the barn vis a vis the copyright or exclusivity of the material, I've decided not to post it here unless there is a request for me to do that.

I think that it's going to be really interesting to see just how much of the procedure we are permitted to see. If what we see is anything at all like what we've read. And who of the six Survivors in the Tribal Council know(s) that not only are the two tied individuals immune from the draw, so too is the IC winner (per the Rules).

Leaving only three ...
