Game rules


Although this is a reality show, rules still apply. This are the rules for every survivor show:

* Conspiring to split winnings will result in immediate expulsion from the game.
* Except for the occasional challenges which involve wrestling or limited combat, any physical violence between players will result in immediate expulsion from the game.
* At Tribal Council, players are not permitted to vote for themselves, nor can they spoil their ballots or decline to cast a vote. Players must also show who they voted for to the camera inside the voting booth.
* Contestants must abide by U.S. law as well as local law. Breaking any of these laws will result in immediate removal from the game.
* Contestants may not skip any tribal councils, nor can they refuse to participate in an immunity or reward challenge, unless the game offers them the opportunity to do so.
* Tribe members may not raid or visit the campsite of another tribe unless they are doing so as part of an immunity challenge, reward challenge or tribal merger activity with the other tribe. They also cannot visit the TV crew compound. Exceptions to this rule have been made, as a result of accident or challenge victories.
* If a contestant becomes seriously injured or sick, the player, fellow contestants, the host, or even the crew filming the players may call in a medical team for help. In some cases, the player can be treated at their camp, but the player may also be deemed unable to participate further by the medical team and is then taken from camp to a medical facility, and removed from the game.
* Depending on which country the show takes place in, contestants may be barred from killing certain forms of plant or animal life.

Most of us enjoy watching the show and doesn't care what are the rules since we are more focus on the immunity challenge, immunity rewards, sexy and handsome castaways. Well, Charlie Parsons laid a very nice format in this show which will be experienced and hopefully enjoyed by the selected (very lucky) castaways. Hopefully the show will bring some very Pinoy style(hopefully unique), maybe the name of the tribe. but of course, even they won't bring-in pinoy style on show, we cannot demand GMA to do so since the format of the show is isolating the participants into a remote island, which in reality, if ever a person will be isolated in an island by an event, he's not sure if it's in the Philippines.

Hmmmm, Is Paolo Bediones will use the show's famous line: "Survivors ready?...GO!"? we'll see...
