How to Play
Cloak & Draft is part prediction game, part fantasy draft. The competition runs in two halves: a one-off batch of Pre-show Picks before episode 1, then Weekly Picks once the show is airing. Pre-show Picks themselves split into two halves too โ straight predictions about how the series will play out, and a Celebrity Draft where you choose celebrities to track for points all series long.
There's also The Recruit โ a one-time addition to your Celebrity Draft from episode 7 onwards.
After each episode airs, vote live for who you thought was the episode's MVP on the MVP Vote page. If your tracked celebrity wins the group vote, you get points. The leaderboard updates after every episode, and any ties are settled at the host's discretion.
Stage one ยท before episode 1
Pre-show Picks
One combined entry, submitted on the Enter Now page, covering five sections:
Pick the Traitors
Name the 3 celebrities you think start the game as Traitors.
First Events
8 questions covering episodes 1 and 2.
End Game
8 questions about how the series finishes.
The Hot Take
One free-text prediction about something ridiculous that might happen during the series - go bold. It can't be something that is going to happen (e.g. there will be a murder), it needs to be an outlandish but plausible guess.
Celebrity Draft
Choose 3 celebrities to follow for the whole series. You earn points for what happens to them, episode by episode, whether they turn out to be Faithful or Traitor.
Episode Events
If they're Faithful
If they're a Traitor
Series milestones
Stage two ยท once the show airs
Weekly Picks
There are 4 Weekly Picks windows, each covering two episodes. A new window opens once the previous pair of episodes has aired, and locks before the next pair โ make your picks on the Weekly Picks page, which only shows whichever window is currently open.
Windows 1โ3
Someone murdered, Someone banished, episode MVP, featured in most dramatic moment, shield winner, who helps banish a Traitor (voided if no Traitor is banished that window), plus 2 wildcard questions.
Window 4 โ the finale
A distinct, lower-value set of questions for the final stretch: banished, murdered, episode MVP, most dramatic moment, pikc the final 3 celebs, will a Traitor make the final 3, the winner, and a wildcard question.
Stage three ยท from episode 7
The Recruit
During Weekly Picks 3, you can add a 4th celebrity to your Celebrity Draft โ chosen from whoever's still in the game at that point. This pick is made alongside that week's Weekly Picks, and only tracks from episode 7 onwards (it doesn't earn points retroactively, and you can't swap out your original 3).
Scored exactly like your original 3 Celebrity Draft picks โ survival, shields, dramatic moments, MVP, round table events, and series milestones โ with one exception: the Traitor "survives 5+ / 7+ episodes" milestones don't apply to The Recruit, since there isn't enough series left for them to matter.
