Random.org Survivor: San Juan Del Sur

*Random.org Survivor: San Juan del Sur - Blood vs. Water* was the thirty-seventh season in the *series*.

The season took place in San Juan del Sur in Rivas in Nicaragua.

The twenty contestants, referred to as "castaways," were originally split up into two tribes of ten, with ten returning players on one tribe and ten of their loved ones on the other. These tribes were named Coyopa and Hunahpu, named after the Mayan god of thunder and one of the Maya Hero Twins, respectively. They represent the name of the camps and the separate teams with immunity and tribal council. On Day 14, there was a tribe expansion with a third new tribe named Xbalanque, the other Maya Hero Twin, leading to three new tribes of five. The merged tribe was named by the 11 castaways who made the merge. They named the tribe Huyopa, a combination of the Coyopa and Hunahpu tribe names.

Returning Olympic Athlete Kelli King beat out newbie TV Writer Alecia Olson in a close 5-4 vote in the Final Tribal Council.

## Twists

* **Hidden Immunity Idols:** There is one hidden immunity idol hidden at random places in, near, or around camp. If found with a clue, the idol may be hidden in a spot in camp. After idols are successfully played or leave the game, new idols are hidden the same way.
	+ **Coyopa Idol:** Maryjane found the Coyopa Idol on Day 7 buried by the water well. At the Day 23 tribal council, Maryjane played the Coyopa Idol on Levi, negating no votes because none were cast and the idol was nullified.
	+ **Hunahpu Idol:** Alecia found the Hunahpu Idol on Day 4 buried by the water well. At the Day 23 tribal council, Alecia played the Hunahpu Idol on herself, negating no votes.
	+ **Xbalanque Idol:**Maryjane found the Xbalanque Idol on Day 13 buried by the water well. At the Day 19 tribal council, Maryjane played the Xbalanque Idol on herself, negating three votes. The Xbalanque Idol was rehidden in a tree near camp and found by Maryjane again on Day 21 following the immunity challenge. At the Day 23 tribal council, Maryjane played the Xbalanque Idol on herself, negating six votes.
	+ **Huyopa Idol:** Levi found the Huyopa Idol on Day 27 in a marked coconut on the beach. At the Day 36 tribal council, Levi played the Huyopa Idol on Paul negating no votes because the idol was nullified by Maryjane's Xbalanque Idol Nullifier. Paul was voted out.
* **Idol Nullifiers:** There is a new advantage called the *Idol Nullifier,* which allows the holder to try to nullify a possible idol play at tribal council. If used incorrectly, the advantage is wasted. If used correctly, the hidden immunity idol is nullified and does not count.
	+ **Coyopa Nullifier:** Jamie O. found the Coyopa Idol Nullifier on Day 11 hidden in the immunity challenge after finding a clue on Day 10. At the Day 23 tribal council, Jamie was voted out with the Coyopa Idol Nullifier so it was never used.
	+ **Hunahpu Nullifier:** Paul found the Hunahpu Idol Nullifier on Day 11 hidden in the immunity challenge after finding a clue on Day 10. At the Day 23 tribal council, Paul played the Hunahpu Idol Nullifier on Levi, who Maryjane played the Coyopa Idol on, successfully blocking the idol play.
	+ **Xbalanque Nullifier:**Maryjane found the Xbalanque Idol Nullifier on Day 21 hidden in the immunity challenge after finding a Clue on Day 20. Maryjane played the Xbalanque Idol Nullifier on Paul, who Levi played the Huyopa Idol on, successfully blocking the idol play and voting him out.
* **Double Tribal Council:**On Day 13, it was announced that only one tribe would win immunity while two tribes went to separate tribal councils and voted someone out.
