Rules

Each week, every active player picks one contestant they think will survive that episode — neither murdered by the Traitors nor banished at the Round Table.

If your pick goes out, you're eliminated — for the rest of the season, not just that week. This is an elimination pool, not a running-score contest: getting your banishment guess or winner pick right does nothing for you if your weekly pick is wrong.

The league runs from Episode 3 onward. Episodes 1 and 2 aired back-to-back with no gap to pick in between, so they're shown on the grid for historical context, but no picks were collected for either.

The last player (or players) still standing at the end of the season wins. If everyone remaining is eliminated in the same episode, the tiebreakers below decide it.

One pick per episode

You submit exactly one contestant per episode. You can change your pick as many times as you like before the deadline.

Once per season

Each contestant can be your weekly pick only once all season. Once you've used someone, they're off your list for good — even if they're still in the game — so spending a safe bet early means you won't have them later.

Wrong pick = eliminated

If your contestant is murdered or banished, you're out. Permanently — not docked a point, removed from the running.

Picks lock at air time

The deadline is the episode's scheduled air time, enforced server-side — not when you close the app. Some weeks air two episodes back-to-back with no gap to pick in between; when that happens, one pick covers both and has to survive them both to count.

Missing the deadline

If you have no pick when the deadline passes, you're eliminated automatically — same as a wrong pick.

Once you're out

You can still watch the picks grid for the rest of the season, but the pick forms disappear — there's nothing left to submit.

Every week, you also answer yes/no: “Will a Traitor be banished tonight?” — submitted before you know whether that episode even has a Round Table.

This never eliminates you, and getting it right doesn't protect a wrong weekly pick. It only matters as tiebreaker 1 — the count of correct banishment guesses breaks a tie between players who lasted the exact same number of episodes.

If the episode turns out not to have a Round Table (a reward or mission-only week), your guess is simply excluded — not counted as wrong.

Locked early

Before the Episode 3 deadline, every player predicts who wins the whole season. This locks at the same moment your first weekly pick does — no changes after, and it has no bearing on whether you stay in the weekly pick.

Tiebreaker 2

If players are still tied after tiebreaker 1 (correct banishment picks), whoever's winner pick survives longer in the game wins the tie.

Why bother, then?

Neither tiebreaker saves a wrong weekly pick — they only ever come into play when it comes down to two or more players eliminated together, or everyone still standing at the finale.

Picks are hidden from everyone else until the episode's deadline passes — before that, you can only see your own.

Once locked, that week's picks are visible to the whole league on the grid, whether or not results have been entered yet.

Winner picks stay hidden until they lock at the Episode 3 deadline, then stay visible to everyone for the rest of the season.

The admin enters results after each episode airs. In exceptional circumstances (e.g. a technical issue), the admin can edit a player's pick after the fact — including reversing an elimination if it was caused by a mistake. Every such edit is logged and marked on the grid.
