Tiebreaker

A **Tiebreaker** is a event at Tribal Council where two or more castaways have the same amount of votes counted against them, and nobody else a vote count higher. In which, some sort of tiebreaker is necessary to break the tie.

## About

A tiebreaker is a situation that occurs when more than one castaway have the highest number of votes. There are different ways to break a tie, usually starting with a revote. Other than there, the game had shown several ways to break a deadlocked tie.

## Rules

Proved in previous seasons of Survivor on Canadienne ORG, a revote will commence once a tie occurs (unless it is a Final Tribal Council tie, in that instance there will be an extra juror). Prior to the revote, a bit conversation is allowed to occur, that may sway people's votes to send a certain person home. In that revote, only the castaways who are not affiliated with the tie are eligible to vote.

If a non-voting castaway's self-vote causes a tie, the tied castaways may or may not vote.

### Revote

A revote occurs almost every time the votes are tied at a regular Tribal Council. The list below indicates each time a revote has happened throughout the ORG, and what the outcome has been. The majority of the time, someone is eliminated after a revote, but if the revote is deadlocked, a tiebreaker challenge or rock draw occurs.

## Deadlock Tie Mechanisms

### Fire-Making Challenge

A fire-making challenge on Canadienne ORG is very different from one of Survivor, but they both have the same outcome. The castaways still in deadlock must compete in a challenge (usually an online game or a expanded version of rock paper scissors), and the one who has the highest score or time wins, while the other is eliminated. The chart below describes every time a fire-making challenge has occurred on Canadienne's ***Survivor***. In Vancouver Island, the Final Immunity winner chose two players to compete for the final three spot via Firemaking.

### Purple Rock

The Purple Rock tiebreaker is a more rare event that has only happened three times thus far. All the participants involved in the tie are safe, as well as anyone who has individual immunity (whether through a necklace, or idol, or other means). Everyone else must pick a rock out of a bag. All of the rocks are yellow, except for one purple rock. The player who selects the purple rock is immediately eliminated, while all of the others are safe.

## Trivia

* *Survivor: Great Plains* and *Survivor: Alaska* are tied for having the most rock draw tribal councils in a season with two.
* Kam is the only player in Canadienne history to be eliminated because they were the only one eligible to draw rocks.
	+ This scenario is similar to Cirie's elimination in *Survivor: Game Changers* where she was eliminated due to being the only person eligible to receive votes after advantages were played*.*

* Adam is the only player to be involved in a rock draw for multiple seasons.
	+ Coincidentally, both rock draws Adam was involved with were at the Final 8 tribal council.
		- However, in *Survivor: Alaska*, he was not eligible to draw a rock, instead being one of the people tied and gaining immunity after the tied re-vote.
