## Description

On this season of The FANDOM Challenge, we have a total of 26 hungry rookies and returning Challengers making up our largest cast count to date! Every player is fighting solely for themselves as there are no teams. The only way players can guarantee their safety each week is to outplay everyone else and earn a spot as a Pack Leader. At the end of the season only one player will come out as the Top Dog with a final prize that has the potential of exceeding 90,000 kps. What will players stoop to to come out on top? Find out this season on The Fandom Challenge: Dog-Eat-Dog.

### Format

Each player will participate in multiple challenges followed by an elimination round known as "The Pound". The winner and top players of the challenge will earn the Alpha role and 5,000 KPs or a Beta role and 1,000 KPs towards their individual bank accounts. The top performers of the challenge will be declared "The Pack Leaders". The worst-performing player of the challenge will be assigned the Runt role and be sent straight to The Pound. The Pack Leaders will each be responsible for nominating a player to participate in a card draw, known as "The Cry of Hounds" At The Cry of Hounds, each nominee will draw cards to determine their fate in the game. The Runt and two unlucky players from the Cry of Hounds will then compete in a 3-way elimination round, resulting in one winner and two losers. The winner will stay in the game and collect the bank accounts from the elimination losers for themselves. The losers are eliminated and their bank account is given to the elimination winner.
When a players reaches 2 DNF's during the season they will be disqualified from the game.

In the Final Challenge, five players will compete in four separate stages.

**Prize money is split as follows:**
Winner: Individual bank account + 90,000 KPs
Runner-Up: Individual bank account + 30,000 KPs
Third Place: Individual bank account + 10,000 KPs
Fourth Place: Individual bank account
Fifth Place: Loses individual bank account and goes home empty handed

1**Note:** Due to multiple DQ's and quitter, the season was ahead of schedule and had an uneven number of players. Because of this the final was moved up to episode 9 rather than episode 11. The Final was originally to be Top 4 but because of everything listed above, it was changed to Top 5.
Also as a result of being ahead of schedule 10,000 kps was unable to be collected and the totalling prize money was reduced from 200,000 to 190,000kps. Following the Stage 1 results of the Final Challenge, Rachel was eliminated and her bank account (15,000 kps) was also unable to be collected. resulting in a total of 25,000 kps not being claimed. Resulting in the total season winnings to equal 175,000kps.

### Features and Twists

**Individual Bank Accounts:** Similar to The Ruins, money will be up for grabs during each challenge and will be split evenly between the winners of that challenge. However, unlike in The Ruins, once a player is eliminated, their individual bank account will be added to the final grand prize total.
**Pack Leaders:** Following every challenge, the top performing players will be declared The Pack Leaders. The pack leaders must each nominate players to enter the Cry of Hounds for possible elimination.
**Runt:** Following every challenge, the worst performing players will be declared The Runt. The Runt will be automatically sent into elimination.
**Runts Choice:** For every elimination, the Runt will be able to choose the elimination game. Game choice options are between Trivia, Speed Count, Unscramble or 3x4 Sliders.
**Cry of Hounds:** The nominees in the Cry of Hounds must each draw cards to determine their fate in the game. The SAFE cards mean the player's fate lies within someone else's hands. The XX card mean the player can choose to sabotage a nominees game and send them into elimination. The SOS card means the player drew the short straw and was automatically sent into elimination.
**Elimination IOU's:** The winner of an elimination will receive the eliminated players' bank account balance.
