There are 204 persons who have received Electoral Votes in U.S. Presidential Elections. This contest will select who among them is worthy of being the survivor. Rules are explained in full in the
organization thread.
To begin with there are twelve tribes of seventeen members each. The tribes are named after Zodiac signs, but people have been placed into them randomly, and not because of their birth sign. The second set of three tribes to vote will be the Cancer, Leo, and Virgo tribes. After 5 rounds, the Cancer, Leo, and Virgo tribes will be merged into the Summer tribe. The Summer tribe will later merge with the Winter tribe to form the Solstice tribe which will later merge with the Equinox tribe to form the final tribe.
Each survivor begins with a number of safety points and can gain safety points during the contest, Safety points are used as the first tiebreaker if there is a tie.
