We've had four completed Games so far, and we're close to the end of the fifth time around. So, if you've had a tribute before, what worked well? What mistakes have you made, what choices have gotten you far or been the death of your tribute? Basically, what advice would you give to people who are new to the Games?

Take risks. Develop. Don't be sad when your character dies. Don't play to win — that seems to make winning easier. [/blockquote]

I also find it helpful to use your training sessions for one offence station and two survival, if that makes sense. But yeah, luck does have a huge factor here.

If you do that, you end up grabbing pliers, and then the next thing you know, you're dead on your back, lacking an arm. [/size][/color]

And do not attack someone who has an alliance bigger than yours.

Have fun. Don't try to cover up what you make your character do by trying to make it seem IC. We all know it's mainly you.

If you get too stressed out over this, then

.

Also, if you kill someone, don't tell them you're sorry. Laugh. It's funny. Death is humorous here.

xD I don't even know if that's allowed.

--Avoid making your tribute into a unicorn.
--Everything is luck after a while.
--Choose your alliances carefully. Play nice. Any funny business might come back and bite you in the butt.
--If you look like an easy target, you will be.
--Take chances. It's more fun. ^^

Don't listen to anything Thundy suggests. Don't date her, either, or you'll end up with a dead Tribute. <3
