### **Key Terms**

* Captain(s) - Player(s) who win the individual competition at the beginning of the round in both the team phase and individual phase. They are safe unless said otherwise.
* Co-Captain - Player who is selected by the Captain in the individual phase of the game to receive safety at the elimination.
* Team Phase - Beginning of the game where the Captain(s) split the teams that compete against each other for safety.
* Individual Phase - The game shifts to no teams. There is one winner of the Captain's Challenge in this phase.
* Random Draw - If a vote ties twice in one elimination, we will go to a random draw.
* Face Off - If at the Final 4 the vote ties twice, the two players tied on will go to a challenge to determine who stays.

### **Format**

* The 18 Challengers would be cast as individuals and came into the game on March 4th.
* Each round, there would be a pre-determined number of Captain Competition Winners. The Captain's duties were as followed:
	+ Divide the Challengers into pre-determined number of Teams.
		- These Teams would then compete in a Team Competition, where the winning Team(s) would win safety for the round and not attend Elimination.
	+ Captain Competition Winners would vote at all Eliminations.
		- Captain Competition Winners would be safe from the vote.
* At the Final 8, the format of the game would switch to individuals, where winning a Captain's Competition would give the person safety for the round, along with assigning a Co-Captain, who would also receive safety. This twist would go on until the Final 6.
* At The Final 3, the format of the game would switch where there would be 3 competitions to determine the Final Captain of the season. The winner of Part 1 moved on to Part 3 of the Final Challenge. The 2 losers then faced off in Part 2 to determine who moved on to Part 3. The winner of Part 3 had the sole vote to eliminate either of the 2 remaining Challengers.
* In the end, a jury of the eliminated Challengers will hear the cases of the Final 2 and determine who deserves to win the game!
