* * * THIS IS WHERE YOU WILL CAST EVERY VOTE FOR EVERY TRIBAL COUNCIL YOU ARE A PART OF * * *



Each time you are placing your vote, it will be done here in this same thread everytime. You will make a comment here stating the name of the person you want to vote out. And then just like on SURVIVOR - give a few reasons why you're voting them out. Anything at all. Say whatever you want.



All the votes you cast here will be kept confidential until after the game when everyone's Confessionals and Voting Booths will be "unlocked." It is up to you whether you want to tell people how you voted as the game goes along...........and it is up to them whether they want to believe you.






A FEW KEY POINTS:



1) Anytime you think you may not be able to be online for a particular challenge, or if you can't be online before the voting deadline.....YOU MUST POST A COMMENT IN YOUR VOTING BOOTH.....CASTING A "PRE-VOTE" FOR THE PERSON YOU WANT TO VOTE OUT OF THE GAME. Do the exact same thing you would do for casting a normal vote......but make sure you make it specific that it is your PRE-VOTE. And immunity can always change things, so be sure to leave a back-up vote. I would recommend leaving at least 2 back-up votes because you never know what might happen.


2) There will ALWAYS be a deadline for casting a vote. (deadlines will typically be around 15 minutes after a challenge ends) I WILL ALWAYS STATE THE EXACT TIME OF THE DEADLINE EACH ROUND. Failure to cast a vote before the deadline, or failure to cast a pre-vote ahead of time........this will result in receiving a PENALTY VOTE against yourself when the Tribal Council votes are revealed. You don't want Penalty Votes. They count against you just like a normal vote.


3) I give a ONE MINUTE GRACE PERIOD on voting deadlines. Translation - say the deadline was 9:45pm. Yours comes in at 9:46. I will count that by the hair of your chinny-chin-chin. But if it shows 9:47......that's a penalty vote. Basically stated: plan to participate, plan to login and cast your vote before the deadline, or plan to cast a pre-vote if you ever need to be away from the game during a challenge or during the time votes are being cast.


4) You can always cast a pre-vote AT ANY TIME, whether you think you can make it for a challenge or not. Just make sure you make it very obvious by stating that you are casting
a PRE-VOTE. If you make NO CHANGES to your pre-vote, it will count. But if you end up being able to be online during the voting and you want to change your pre-vote before
the deadline, you are allowed to do that
.


5) However, once you have cast your regular vote.....YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CHANGE IT. Think of it like the real Survivor......once you have dropped that piece of parchment
in the voting urn......it's a done deal. (The ONLY vote you can ever change is a pre-vote.) A PRE-VOTE IS ANYTHING YOU CAST BEFORE I HAVE OFFICIALLY STATED THAT VOTING IS OPEN. ANY VOTE YOU CAST AFTER I STATE WHAT THE VOTING DEADLINE IS ~ THAT IS PERMANENT AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE THAT.




NOTES REGARDING TIES:

In the case of a tie, we will do a RE-VOTE. If the re-vote does not break the tie and we remain DEADLOCKED, I will then reveal how a deadlocked tie will be broken for that particular round. It will remain a mystery unless it comes into play.




TIES & PREVOTES:

Anyone can leave me detailed instructions in their Voting Booth if they're not around. It would have to be stated VERY CLEAR what the intentions are. Like, I want to vote for A,
but if there is a tie between A and B, I want to switch and re-vote B. Otherwise, I'll use lists top to bottom that are posted in there as follows...



*If a vote ever ends up tied, when we re-vote, I will use votes in the order they are left based on who is eligible. i.e. Someone leaves a pre-vote of Person A in their Voting Booth with a backup of Person B in case A wins immunity.

*Now, the vote ends up tied between Person A and Person X.

*The pre-vote for Person A is what I would automatically use for their re-vote.

*But if the vote was tied between Person B and Person X, I would use the pre-vote of Person B since they were 2nd on the list, (but Person A is not in the tie)




THE EASIEST WAY TO AVOID ANY CONFUSION IS TO BE HERE. DON'T CAST A VOTE AND LOG OFF.
THERE COULD BE A RE-VOTE.





Hope everything makes sense. Please comment here so I know you've read it. Feel free to ask any questions.
