## Series Chronology

***Double Cross*** is the first season of Suitman's Flop Nation mixed reality series, which premiered on October 1, 2017, and concluded with the final challenge on October 28, 2017.

It is a format adaptation of MTV's *The Challenge: Dirty 30*, where players square off each round as either teams, pairs, or as individuals to gain safety. They must maintain their social status to avoid being voted into the Presidio for potential elimination, or straight-up sent in by the power of the Double Cross. Who will out-dirty their opponents before they out-dity them?

## Production

The *Flop Nation* mixed reality series was announced on September 6, 2017, whilst *Double Cross* was then revealed as the name of the first season on September 15, 2017, confirmed to be a format adaptation of *The Challenge: Dirty 30*. Applications opened on September 18, 2017, closing one week later on September 25, 2017. As the series' debut season, anyone was eligible to apply with no restrictions. The full cast of 20 was announced on September 29, 2017, two days before the season premiered on October 1, 2017.

This season was produced and hosted by SuitMan13, with production assistance from aiwfwyattroh.

## Format

Each round, the contestants are faced with a group challenge for safety, competing as either an individuals, in pairs, or in two or more teams. For pair and team challenges, names are drawn out of the bag to designate captains. In team challenges, the captains will take turns to select players to be on their team, whilst in pair challenges, the captains immediately select someone to be their partner when their name is drawn.

After each challenge, the winning teams/pairs/players are not only safe from elimination, but will also choose two of the losing players to compete in "The Presidio" (the elimination game) in a publicly-revealed vote. All losing players, including the two already voted in, must then participate in an elimination draw, where two players will be drawn the *XX*, known as a Double Cross, which gives them safety, and allows them to pick one player of their choice to be sent into the Presidio, from the remaining losers not yet sent in. There are two Double Crosses each round, allowing two players to send in one person each.

The four players in the Presidio then square off in two randomly-determined one-on-one elimination duels, with the two winners staying in the game, and the two losers out for good. This continues until only a small number of players remain, who then go head-to-head in a final challenge to determine the winner of the season.
