Survivor Rules

1.     Survivors will be divided into five tribes.  Tribemembers must wear their tribal buffs at all times. 

2.   There will be 7 tribe challenges.  Tribemembers need to work together to complete the challenge.  The tribe who finishes the challenge first gets 5 points, the second-place tribe gets 4 points, third-place 3 points, and so on.

3.   For each round, there is a different theme.  For the rounds that require a question to be answered, the tribe must cite their source, and the source must come from the Survival Guide list of acceptable sources.  Answers are to be written on the blue post-it notes so cards can be re-used.

4.   The tribe with the most points at the end of 7 challenges will compete against each other for the title of Sole Survivor – and a prize.

5.   Please return your buff and all question cards at the end of the game so they can be used for future Survivor competitions.
