# Overview

**Jonvivor S6: Madagascar** was the sixth season of Jonvivor. Pre-Production for the season began after a break that Jon took following the craziness of season 5 (All-Stars). Cinya, Dex, and EPS all joined back onto the hosting team as soon as Season 5 ended, as well as newcomer Izzy joining the team. Kippy, and Ichthy also continued to help out hosting the season. Applications went out on the 9th of December, with the season officially starting on January 5th, 2022. The season lasted for **38** days, ending on February 11th, 2022. We struggled to think of a fun idea for the season, until Jonvivor Host and 2 time player (at the time) recommended that we base it around **Madagascar**.

The season was made up of **18 new castaways**, separated at first into three tribes of 6. **Mort** in light blue, **Maurice** in yellow, and **Julien** in pink. They were named after characters from the Movie series, Madagascar. The other tribes later in the season were named **Alex** (in red), **Gloria** (in purple), and the merge tribe of **Melman,** in yellow. The winner of the season was **Shail**, who won in a final 7-2 vote, against runner-up, **Meatball**.

## Pre-Production

The hosting team consisted of Jon, EPS, Dex, Izzy, Creative, and Kippy, Cinya, and Ichthy took more of a back seat.

There was a giant break between seasons 5 & 6, as Jon and the team were pretty burnt out, and Jon spent time playing other orgs, Secretvivor, and Marioviver, where he placed 6th in both.

Dex came out with the season location and idea, and they all decided to bring back the Advantage Board from Season 4.

## Production

The first applications were were sent out on December 9th, 2021, while the season was still being planned. Applications closed on January 4th, with the season starting shortly after, on January 5th, 2022. There was a total of 30 people that applied, and 12 of them were cut to make this the first 18 person Jonvivor season.

After the cast reveal on January 5th, the game had begun.
