This important info is being posted for your tribe as further clarification
regarding the anonymous character stuff and a few "housekeeping" tips.



As stated in the RULES in your own private Confessional, identities are to remain secret until the game is wrapped & the winner
is announced. Be sure to NOT post anything about this game in your Facebook statuses or Twitter or whatever. Reason is ~ the
SURVIVOR fan community is massive........ but is a tighter group than most people realize.


So, keep any personal discussions on a VERY GENERIC LEVEL. Reason is, the minute you mention to a fellow player that you
can't login on a certain day because you "have to take your spouse, son, daughter, etc. to the airport or doc appointment or soccer
practice or dance recital or whatever"...... the next thing you know...... you've just posted the EXACT SAME INFO on social media.
A fellow player might see it and immediately figure out who you are in this game. That can't happen because the integrity of our
game would be destroyed.


* * * If people start playing the game based on who they THINK are behind the characters......
........YOU WILL RUIN YOUR GAME EXPERIENCE. Please trust me on this. * * *


If you have to mention any reason that you can't be here on a certain date....... JUST KEEP IT VERY GENERIC. (family event,
personal reasons, etc.) Just don't get specific. Cool? I do monitor the info that's going around our game, so let's keep it all clean.


And if you have an account with any photo hosting/sharing site ~ DO NOT post any public pics from your own account. Why?
Because it can easily give away your identity. If you have a photo you want to share on the board, you can just upload it to
www.imgur.com or www.tinypic.com (keeps it anonymous that way)


Although myself or our lovely Moderator Samurai will frequently change the location of pics you all post publicly. Reason being,
if it's just some random pic or .gif you find online, if the owner of that photo deletes it........ it will disappear from our board.
So, me or Samurai will often swoop in and add that pic to another source so that it won't ever disappear.


Also, I've noticed that with this website we're on, every single time someone logs out and back in or drops by the board to
see who's online....... it records every single visit as a new "Guest." When I was setting up the board and testing all logins,
it had me showing as so many different Guests that I lost count when I was logging out and logging back in. I also do that
frequently throughout the day reading the messages everyone's sending. Basically, with me logging in and out and all of
you, it shows each one as a new Guest. So, for the board to show tons of Guests online at a time is completely normal.



Also, I'm here to help. PLEASE ASK ME IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE
FINDING OR NAVIGATING THROUGH. Send me a PM. I will be online here often.




And Confessionals . . . .



I can't reiterate how much I love them. Always my favorite part of any season.



WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW HOW AWESOME A PLAYER YOU WERE IN THIS GAME??? WRITE
AWESOME CONFESSIONALS!!! GET YOUR STRATEGIC THOUGHTS DOWN IN THERE BECAUSE
I CAN GUARANTEE YOU'LL WISH YOU DID WHEN THE GAME WRAPS UP.



I will also be "Confessional-izing" about everything that's happening.



Looking forward to seeing who will rise to the top. Rock on, y'all!


:D

P.S. Another little tip.......whenever you have something written that you don't want to type out again......(a Confessional entry,
a PM, whatever).....highlight and copy (Ctrl + C) before submitting it.....because you never know when you could have a "hiccup"
with your connection and you wish you could just paste (Ctrl + V) what you had instead of having to start from scratch. There's
my tip for the day. You're welcome.
