Survivor Fan Characters 8: The Midway Island (SFC8) is the eighth season of Survivor Fan Characters.
This season was filmed in the Moala Islands in Fiji, and features sixteen castaways divided into two tribes of eight. The season premiered on April 14 and concluded on September 4, 2011. It ended with Melanie Aensland receiving the title of Sole Survivor in a 5-2-0 vote against Heinz Keller and Matt Thorndark.
Format[]
- Midway Island: Located at the northern tip of the Moala Islands, the Midway Island serves as a neutral spot where castaways from both tribes can mingle with each other. It also provides two major game-changing twists.
- Mutiny: Before the merge, the Midway Island is where a contestant can mutiny from one tribe to another, as many times as they want, but only before an Immunity Challenge takes place.
- Nullifier: After the merge, the Midway Island allows contestants to nullify one person's ability to vote at Tribal Council for that round, but each contestant could only do this once.
- Hidden Immunity Idol: This season, there was a Hidden Immunity Idol located somewhere on the Midway Island.
- Delayed merge: For the first time, the tribes did not merge until there were only nine people left in the game.
- Outcasts Twist: On Day 25, as a consequence of Matt Thorndark obtaining the post-merge Hidden Immunity Idol, the nine remaining castaways all had to vote one of the first seven eliminated castaways back into the game.
- Final Three: This season, three finalists face a jury of seven at the Final Tribal Council, as opposed to two.

Notes ^1 Xero played the Hidden Immunity Idol, negating all votes cast against him. ^2 The vote resulted in a tie between Jackie and Oehda. In order to remain in the game, the two had to compete against each other in Survivor Roulette. Oehda won, and Jackie was voted out. ^3 Although Geena had won the Immunity Challenge, she forfeited immunity because Xero had pointed out that in previous seasons, the winner of the first Immunity Challenge never went on to win the season. Immunity was also refused by the runners-up, Malik and Kiara, so Jeff declared everyone vulnerable going into Tribal Council that night. ^4 The vote resulted in a tie between Heinz and Matt. Because none of the other castaways wanted to change their vote, the vote was declared a deadlock, and Geena, Iraenus, Kiara, and Malik were forced to draw rocks. Kiara ended up drawing the odd-colored rock, and was eliminated. ^5 Malik gave up his reward for the rest of the tribe. Despite this, production allowed him to keep his reward anyway. |
