Survivor Fantasy Rule Book

General Overview

Welcome to our Survivor Fantasy League! Just like on Survivor, it’s all about strategy, intuition, and outlasting the competition. Here’s how it works: First, you draft a tribe of 6 contestants from the upcoming season (Season 48!). You'll then pick one of them who you think will win it all. Your job is to pick the players you think will dominate challenges, survive tribal councils, and make it to the end. Each contestant earns points based on their performance throughout the season. Think of it like crafting your own Survivor dream team, and every episode is another chance to earn points and climb the leaderboard.

At the end of the season, the top three tribes with the most points will split the prize pool. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just here to have a good time, this is your shot to outwit, outplay, and outlast!

Scoring System

Points are the currency of your success in this league. Each contestant in your tribe earns points individually based on their performance, and your tribe's total score is the sum of your six contestants' scores.

Here’s the breakdown:

The scoring system is designed to reward key milestones in Survivor. Do you have the Sole Survivor on your tribe? That could land you 500 points! Making the merge? That’s a solid 100 points for each pick. And don’t underestimate the smaller categories like winning challenges or simply surviving episodes -- they can add up quickly. Remember, if one of your contestants gets voted out, you won't earn additional points from them, so choose wisely. It’s all about balancing bold moves with smart picks.

Your Tribe

Tribe Customization

Your tribe is your team, your identity, and your strategy all rolled into one. You get to customize it in a few ways:

Tribe Name: Choose the defining name of your tribe.

Emoji Tribe Icon: Choose any emoji that captures the essence of your tribe.

Tribe Color: Pick a favorite color to give your tribe a signature look on the leaderboard.

Picking Your Tribe

Drafting your tribe is simple. Head to the draft page to enter your email address, name, tribe info, and to choose 6 contestants who you think will dominate this season. After you submit your 6 tribe members, you will be prompted to confirm your picks and select one contestant who you think will walk away as sole survivor. Once you've drafted your tribe, it's time to sit back and watch the season unfold!

Just like last season, each tribe is required to pay a $20 entry fee. This goes towards the prize pot to be distributed at the conclusion of Season 48.

Winning & Prizes

Wanna know what you're playing for? When the final torch is snuffed and the dust settles, the top three tribes with the highest total points will take home the prize pool money. Here’s how it pays out:

Private Betting Pool Disclaimer

In this Survivor Fantasy League, the prize pool is created entirely from the contributions of participating players. Each player pays an entry fee, which is pooled together to form the total prize. The entire pool is distributed among the winners at the end of the season based on the league's scoring system.

No portion of the prize pool is retained for administrative purposes or for profit by the organizer. This league is a private, social activity designed for enjoyment and camaraderie. All fees directly contribute to the winnings for the season.
