MNRS 11: Power Struggle

## Series Chronology

***Power Struggle*** is the eleventh season of M&N's Reality Series, which premiered on May 31, 2023, and ended with Matt B. being crowned the Winner over Dylan L. and Bryce M. in a 6-2-0 Jury vote on June 26, 2023.

It is an original format, where each round players compete in Challenges, become members of the Power, the People, or the Peasants, and attend Evictions where they must vote one another out of the house.

## Production

*Power Struggle* was revealed as the name and format of the eleventh season after the revival of the series on May 19, 2023. Applications opened on May 19, 2023, and closed ten days later on May 29, 2023. Anyone was eligible to apply without restriction. 20 people applied, 2 were cut, and 18 went on to become the players competing in the game. The full cast was announced on May 30, 2022, and the season premiered on May 31, 2022.

The series is produced and hosted by 'Mike'#3460 with production assistance and logo creation from OldNewz#8387.

## Format

Each round will consist of both a Challenge and an Eviction. At the beginning of each round, it will be announced how many players will be a part of the Power, the People, and the Peasants. The Challenge will then take place, and the players who perform the best will be declared the Power, the players who perform in the middle will be declared the People, and the players who perform the worst will be declared the Peasants.

After the Challenge, all players will have roughly 24-hours to submit their vote(s) to evict one of the peasants. Each of the three groups have different voting powers:

The Power are able to cast 1 Savior vote and 3 Eviction votes for any of the peasants. They can vote for the same peasant three times or split their votes.

The People are able to cast 2 Eviction votes for any of the peasants. They can vote for the same peasant twice or split their votes.

The Peasants are able to cast 1 Eviction vote for any of the other peasants.

At the Elimination, it will first be revealed which peasant received the most Savior votes, and all Eviction votes cast against this peasant will be nullified. It will then be revealed which remaining peasant received the most Eviction votes, and they will be eliminated from the game. Vote totals will be revealed, but who each player voted for will remain anonymous. The next Challenge will take place shortly after the Eviction.

This cycle will repeat until only seven players remain, at which point the format will become simplified. Each round will still consist of a Challenge and an Eviction, except that the winner of the Challenge will now receive sole Immunity from the vote, while everyone else will be eligible to be evicted. This will continue until only three players remain where the final three will then face a jury vote of previously evicted players to determine the winner of *Power Struggle*.

## Twists

* **Fast Forward:** It was announced on Days 9 and 18 that there would be a Fast Forward on Days 10 and 19, where players would only have five hours to submit their votes.
* **Public Voting:** It was announced at the start of the third Eviction on Day 7 that everyone's Eviction and Savior votes would be publicly revealed.
* **Spread Too Thin:** It was announced on Days 7 and 16 that the Challenge would be broken up into multiple parts, with the best performing player of each becoming members of the Power, and the worst performing player of each becoming members of the Peasants.

### Powers

* **Vote Blocker:** This power allows its user to publicly block another player from being able to vote at the Eviction. The members of the Power, Alex G. and Noah K., were each given a Vote Blocker for winning the 'Line 'Em Up' Challenge to use at the upcoming Eviction. Alex chose to block Buckeey B. and Noah chose to block Matt B. from voting at the seventh Eviction on Day 14.
