 * "Tontines" - A tontine is “a fund to which a group of persons contribute, the benefits ultimately accruing to the last survivor or to those surviving after a specified time.”In addition to the regular tribes, each player is placed onto a secret “tontine." There are five total tontines, each with four people (two from each tribe). The two tontines with the most players still remaining in them by the Final 14 attend two consecutive joint tribal councils. This means two separate tribal councils, one immediately following the first, with no one from the two vulnerable tontines having immunity. So, essentially, it is in each player's best interest to get rid of the members in their own tontine to avoid going to the Tontine Tribal Councils.  Also, if a player is successful in getting rid of ALL three other members of their tontine, they will be rewarded with a hidden immunity idol at merge. If there are more than two tontines that are tied for having the most players still in them, then all tontines involved in the tie will go to these special TCs.
