7 confirmed players... 7 to go

Now that half of the cast (and their sims) has been revealed, here's some more information on the season:

This season will last exactly 7 weeks .

There will be 12 episodes in total, and although there will be no twists or turns this season, it will essentially be The Mole on steroids. That means this season will be filled with the best characters and the best missions. And since the season is shorter, each execution will eliminate TWO players from the game, making this the most cutthroat season to date. Double executions are really the only "twist" this season, so there will be no surprises other than a few cameos here and there :)

The game has yet to officially begin... But that will soon change once the Mole is chosen. >:)
(more info on that later)

Question- How would the double execution work at the final four?

Good question! So, I was going to get to this later, but I'll just say it now.

The episode layout will look like this:
1: Mission #1
2: Execution (14-12)
3: Mission #2
4: Execution (12-10)
5: Mission #3
6: Execution (10-8)
7: Mission #4
8: Execution (8-6)
9: Mission #5
10: Execution (6-4)
11: Mission #6
12: THE FINALE

So, the finale will actually have FOUR finalists. This allows an extra person to enjoy the last mission, plus, it makes the game even MORE difficult. Usually by final 3, the two players know the Mole's identity with almost 100% certainty. With a final 4, things get trickier.

And yes, there will be an execution as early as episode 2. :-/ Which is unfortunate, but, that's how these shows go sadly. I almost considered a season without any eliminations whatsoever. :p But that goes against the spirit of the game.
