1. You change your picks as often as you wish prior to each deadline. No one can see your selections prior to each deadline.

2. After each deadline, no other changes can be made. The Game Manager will not be able to change or add picks for you after a deadline has passed.

3. If you fail to make a pick for the first deadline, the system will automatically remove you from the Game.

4. If you miss the second or third Staggered deadline, you are not eliminated from the Game.

5. If you miss the second deadline when Staggered Deadlines are used, the system will assign No Pick. The Ranking Score assigned is equal to the worst value within the game.

6. If the tiebreaker deadline is missed, the system will automatically assign the second selection for the tiebreaker selection also. If the second selection was a No Pick, the system will assign the first selection for the tiebreaker selection.

The Twist: You are not trying to pick "THE MOLE" but rather avoid picking it. If by chance you select "the Mole" you will be assigned the highest points allowed (this is a bad thing).

Scores are assigned in the order the 12 players are voted off the show. The first to leave will earn the score of 11. It will continue down until the last 2 players are left.

NOTE: This numeric scoring is used ONLY for tiebreakers. Choosing both or one of the correct 2 players, or the overall winner takes priority over this scoring when determining the order of player finishes.

The scoring is as follows:

Overall Winner
Score = 0

Season Finale Loser
Score = 2

No Pick
Score = 12

Scoring Twist: If by chance you select "the Mole" you will be assigned the highest points allowed (this is a bad thing)

The Mole
Score = 12

Scoring will not be updated until the morning after each episode so that the outcome is not spoiled for those in later time zones.
