Silver and Gold

*Silver and Gold* is the fifteenth season of *Club Penguin Survivor*. The third major returnee season of CPORG - following *Champions vs Challengers* and *Legends* - this season saw a full cast of fourteen returning players - eight penguins and six puffles - come back to play once more, marking it as the largest cast of any CPORG season to date and the second season to feature an entire cast of returning players with no new players mixed in at all. In line with the theme of podium finishes, the returning players this season were all previous finalists in at least one prior season, with the tribes divided based off their highest placing finish; previous sole survivors on one tribe and those who were runners-up at best on the other.

## Twists/Changes

* **Silver and Gold:** The two tribes this season will be made up of returning players, and will be divided according to their previous gameplay.
	+ **Silver:** These players were strong enough to secure a place at the final tribal council, only to fall short in the jury vote, unable their season(s) out with a win.
	+ **Gold:** These players were the champions of their season(s), making it all the way to the end where they were crowned as the sole survivor.
* **Silver Sai:** Given to the player with the most votes against by the merge, this grants the holder an additional individual immunity necklace in any challenge they place second in for the first three rounds of merge. If they finish dead last in any challenge during this time, the power will be stripped from the holder of the Silver Sai permanently and whoever the other second place finisher is will become immune instead.
* **Golden Golok:** Given to the player with the most first place finishes in challenges by the merge, this allows the holder to cast the first vote in the round for three rounds, sending in a vote ahead of the immunity challenge, after which tribal council will take place and they will still be able to cast an additional regular vote. If the person they vote for wins immunity (thus becoming immune to the vote against them), the vote will be voided and the power will be stripped from the holder of the Golden Golok permanantly.
* **Podium Prospects:** For the final \_\_ immunity challenge, three people from each tribe will compete, however they first must rank themselves in a podium format on how they feel they will perform, from first to second to third. This will effectively cap their scores for the challenge, even if second place outscores first place or third outscores second, their score will be capped at one point/coin lower than their highest scoring tribemate, as that person must stay in their order on the tribe's podium.
* **Gold's Glory, Silver's Suppression:** In a play on "high risk vs high reward", the winner of the first individual immunity challenge will receive immunity as usual, while the second place finisher in the challenge will not receive immunity as per usual, but they will also lose their vote for the tribal council, meaning that someone has to weigh up if it's worth going for the win at the risk of having their vote suppressed.
* **Hidden Immunity Idol:** The standard rules of Hidden Immunity Idols from the U.S. Survivor series apply.
* **Merge:** At the final eight, the tribes were merged and the game became individual.
* **Final Two:** The game returned to a final two format, similar to the thirteenth season.
