Welcome to Can You Survive: The Island of Love!
Just off the coast of Italy lies the beautiful and romantic island of Cyprus - otherwise known as The Island of Love. It is said that this sacred land is the birthplace of the Goddess of Love and Beauty, Aphrodite. But what secrets are really hidden behind this magical facade? It is time for you 16 strangers to find out...
I would like to be the first to officially welcome you to Cyprus and the 12th season of CYS. This is where you will be staying for the next 39 days. But don't get too comfortable. It's time for you to find out about the first twist of the season...

But the fun doesn't stop here…
Along with the tribes being divided between men and women, there is also another twist that will shake up how you play the game quite dramatically. Please say hello to The Golden Bonds. The idea of marriage is that you will be bond for life and the ring is a symbol for that connection. Well you are about to share that connection with someone. However, the feelings will not be mutual...
Each of you is about to be sent the name of someone else who is participating in the game. It will be kept a secret: no one will know who's name you have. It will be your job to love and protect them without giving away their identity. Here is the catch…they will not also have your name. Let's call it a one-sided marriage. If you succeed in protecting them until the merge, you will receive a hidden immunity idol for yourself. It is up to you whether you tell anyone else who you have a bond with. Do you trust anyone else to keep it a secret? Do you vote them out so the target stays off your back? Do you stay honorable and keep your golden bond strong? We will find out!

~~Survival "Challenge" #1~~
Welcome everyone to your very first "Survival Challenge" of the season. Tonight, you will be basically getting to know everyone on your tribe. Over the next 48 hours, you will be voting for someone on your tribe. Yes, that's right, someone from each tribe is about to be banished from the Island of Love. So each tribe will have 48 hours to get to know each other and vote someone out. You can vote for the weakest link or the biggest threat. That is up to you. Will the twist that I just announced play a part in your decision? We will soon find out. Let me just say this…be careful who you vote out because you never know when Aphrodite might be feeling generous.
Please cast your votes in the voting history thread in your confessional. You are NOT required to make a parchment this season but obviously you can if you would like! <3 You have exactly 48 hours so please don't self-vote. That would be a shame this early to get a strike.

It's survival of the fittest...who will survive The Island of Love?!
Voting Due: Wednesday August 27, 2014 @ 9pm EST
