Rules of Netflix's The Circle
In season 7 of The Circle, the rules remain the same, with an added twist to be revealed later. Contestants are isolated in separate rooms and use the voice-activated platform "The Circle" to create profiles and communicate with each other. They can't contact the outside world but can send photos and texts to fellow contestants through the show's social media platform.
Their goal is to set up a profile that would help them to be the top influence while avoiding any doubts from their competitors. Setting up a good profile is important because a contestant's longevity in the game depends on their profiles.
Players can make an authentic profile like season 1 winner Joey Sasso who presented himself as his original self. Or the contestants can make a fake profile can catfish other players like season 2 winner DeLeesa St. Agathe. DeLeesa made a catfish profile where she presented herself as her husband Trevor.
How does Elimination work in Netflix's The Circle?
Throughout the show, the contestants are asked to rank each player based on their performance as a genuine influencer. The average rating of each player is then displayed and the top two players are called the "influencer". The influencers get the power to unanimously eliminate one of the contestants.
The contestant who is eliminated gets blocked on the social media platform and gets to meet one of their fellow cast mates before they leave the show. A day after they leave the contestant's real identity is revealed to all the remaining players in the game
Numorous rankings take place throughout the show and people get eliminated with each. Only four or five players make it to the finale where one last raking happens. The contestant who gets the top average rating is declared the winner and gets a $100,000 cash prize.
