Survivor 40 Prediction Game
Brant 
There will be a BrantSteele Prediction Game for Survivor 40 hosted on BrantSteele.org. Sign-ups officially open Friday, May 24th at 8:00 PM EST. This contains cast spoilers.
You must register an account for it and confirm your email. You can do this before sign ups open.
The Prediction Game was brought back this season because the cast was revealed early, before any spoilers have come out. Sign-ups will only be open for a limited time – currently set for one week. Thanks to Inside Survivor for posting the rumored cast.
Sign-ups are now live.
Update: Sign-ups were temporarily stopped due to an email account validation issue. Sign-ups have been re-opened, and accounts are no longer needed.

There are two simulators that I’d like to finish and release before doing anything new. The Hunger Games Simulator update is being tested, which includes importing and exporting casts with a text file. The Survivor Custom Template is still being programmed.
We had 92 submissions for ‘next new simulator’ before the poll was closed due to spam and trolling. Some of the results are not easily programmable and were discarded, but we’re going to do several rounds of polling to narrow down the choices. Each poll will last ~24 hours this round.
The poll for 4/22 was “Which cooking show would you most want to see made into a BrantSteele simulator?” Advancing: Hell’s Kitchen (43%), MasterChef (35%)
The poll for 4/23 was “Which dating show would you most want to see made into a BrantSteele simulator?” Advancing: The Bachelor/Bachelorette (37%), Are You the One? (28%)
The poll for 4/24 was “Which dating show would you most want to see made into a BrantSteele simulator?” Advancing: Escape The Night (22%), Whodunnit (19%), Mafia/Town of Salem/Werewolf (15%), Clue (14%). Because Escape The Night won, I’ll evaluate merging this show with the single-killer Danganronpa simulator.
The poll for 4/25 is “Which designing show would you most want to see made into a BrantSteele simulator?” Advancing: Project Runway (57%)
The poll for 4/26 is “Which singing/dancing talent show would you most want to see made into a BrantSteele simulator?” Advancing: The Voice (20%), American Idol (15%), America’s Got Talent (14%), Dancing With the Stars (13%), Produce 101 Series (11%), The X Factor (10%).
The criteria for advancing was to win or finish with 10% of the leader.
The top 48 have been set from round 1, and details on round 2 will be posted shortly.
The Amazing Race 31 cast added & SSL
The cast for The Amazing Race 31 was added to all of the simulators. This season features many competitors from other reality television shows.
Please report if you see any bugs.
Additionally, BrantSteele.com had a security update with the addition of SSL. This should reduce the warnings that web browsers generate for websites without it. The only errors you should see now are custom seasons where you used your own images that don’t include ‘https’ at the start. A way to handle these images is being looked into. If this test goes well, BrantSteele.net will likely be updated with SSL in May.
New Edit Cast Modes
To help users transition from BrantSteele.net to BrantSteele.com with upcoming template updates for Big Brother, Survivor, and The Hunger Games, the original Custom and Personal edit modes have been added to all of the new simulators.
For those who use Advanced Edit, an option has been added to change Season and Show below each tribe/group.
- Screenshot Preview #3
Here’s a preview of what’s to come for The Hunger Games.
- Screenshot Preview #4
The Survivor Custom Template tribe & cast page is temporarily unavailable due to some on-server testing occurring today.
An option to use the original background was added to the .com simulators earlier in the week. Please report any issues, and any feedback on the changes is welcome. Thank you!
- @andreaagostin18 Yes, it's likely we'll do one or two new Total Drama simulators this year.
- @Tommy34354257 I would estimate as early as February, these could be added to the newer simulators on https://t.co/qPJ6rNQAra.
