When bidding for Season 20, I thought about what would make my season stick out. I wanted it to be memorable, and, since it is a milestone season, I wanted to bring parts of previous seasons back. My goal is to summarize Survivor ORG Wiki in a nutshell, and celebrate what it has become since its humble beginnings. To do that, I'm giving the new contestants some old twists and classic challenges to play with, and even an old location - South Africa, used for All-Stars. Somehow, we have reached twenty seasons. Let's hope we can keep going for twenty more.

The Basics
Season name: Survivor: South Africa

Tribes and colours: Buffel, wearing brown, and Walvis, wearing blue.

Contestants: 21. After the first Tribal Council on Day 2, 2 tribes of 10 will be formed.

Twists
Being a milestone season, several twists from previous seasons will be used.

Day Zero: The cast will be revealed 24 to 48 hours before the game officially begins. The contestants will be encouraged to socialize.

Anarchy: The game will begin with 21 players and no tribes. After one Tribal Council, the twenty players will form two tribes.

Tribe Swap: There will be one or more tribe swaps. No swaps will occur with more than 16 players.

Double Trouble: At two points during the season, once before the merge and once after the merge, two players will be eliminated at the same Tribal Council.

Temporary Twists: Many twists from previous seasons will be used for only one or two episodes. These include kidnapping, the Pyramid, and Exile Island. Twists such as Redemption Island and Equality will not be used, as they would have to be in use for the entire pre-merge.

Hidden Immunity Idols: Idols will become available at some point during the game. They are standard idols only; no Tyler Perry or "god-idols" are available.

Changes
Challenges will be mostly non-live. Live challenges will be held at times convienient for all the players.

And finally...

Email address: The email address used for this season will be  SouthAfrica@survivorwiki.org . The owner of the domain has agreed to let us use it.
