Tribal Council will last 24 hours. Each of you will have a question to answer publicly in the Tribal Council thread, and each of you must cast your votes in your Confessionals in a thread called "Voting History" within that 24 hours time period.
However, if I'm running a little late and don't log in within that time period, you may still vote, and I will still count it. However, if I am logged in and have already tallied the votes by the deadline, your vote will count as a self-vote.
If you receive three self-votes within the game, you will be removed. You may change your vote at any time before I have tallied/posted the results of the Votes. However, if I receive all votes before the deadline, I may post the results early, so if you are unsure about how you are voting, you may want to wait to vote.
It is highly suggested that each of you make a bootlist in your Confessionals to avoid self-voting. I will only use that bootlist if the 24 hour time limit is up, and you still have not voted.
Also, when you are voting, please do it on this parchment:
Just put it into Paint or Picnik and write the name of the person you are voting off on it. At times this may seem annoying, but it really only takes a minute of your time. And the votes will be revealed in a VIDEO, so having written votes by you will make it more interesting and fun for the game.
Tie-breakers:
How the tie-breaker works will not be revealed until a tie occurs. However, the tie-breaker could change based on how far into the game we are. For example, the tie-breaker could be different in the tribal stages than the merge or the final 4.
