One way to prepare for a wall split is to do a hip flexor stretch on a Pilates reformer. Facing the bottom of the reformer, place your foot on the floor next to the foot bar. Place your left knee in the middle of the padded part of the machine. Make sure there aren't any sprints attached, then hold the foot bar and allow the left knee to travel away from your hands. Because most reformers are elevated, you shouldn't be limited by anything other than your own hip flexor flexibility. When you're able, extend the knee of your right leg to achieve an even greater stretch.

Would it be better to be stranded by yourself, or with ten other people? More people would mean more food would need to be gathered, but more people would mean more work could be done.

Ten other people. In addition to the benefit of extra sets of hands, there is a lot to be said for the mental health benefits of having other people around.

What do I do if my knee hurts even if my split is touching the wall?

It depends. If it is the back of the knee, that is good - you are stretching. If it's the front, stop, and maybe go see a doctor.
