[Day 5] Pole Vault

Welcome to the pole vault event of the second Panem Olympic Games! The track and field complex is located within the Olympic Arena, with stands for spectators traveling from Districts One, Two, Four, and the Capitol to watch the competitors. Television cameras are set up around as well, to broadcast the event to anyone staying home as well as to the other districts who aren't as lucky and competent as you all! Please be sure you stretch and warm up with your coaches before you're called to the starting block, and remember, make your district proud!

The execution of this event is somewhat more difficult than the other events. Feel free to roleplay your character making their vaults, warming up, etc as you would normally. However, instead of pasting a single code in once, you will be pasting different codes in for success/failure at different heights. You will have three chances to clear each height.


Everyone clears the 4.60m jump automatically. You get three tries to clear each following vault, with the odds getting worse for success each time. You will need to edit your post each time for multiple vaults / to add the next jump. BE SURE TO LABEL YOUR VAULTS. Here are the odds:

4.70 odds: dice=3
1 clear
2 clear
3 miss

4.80 odds: dice=5
1 clear
2 clear
3 clear
4 miss
5 miss

4.90 odds: dice = 7
1 clear
2 clear

(From this point on, should it be necessary, the dice follow this pattern, increasing by 2 for every .1m and needing a 1 or 2 to be considered successful.)



The competitor with the highest successful vault wins this event. Heights for this event will be continually updated on this thread; however, the overall decathlon standings will be updated on a separate thread.

After everyone has rolled, feel free to edit your post with your character's reaction if you so desire, but please keep it to one post rather than multiple.

There is NO POSTING ORDER; you may post your shots whenever you please. Keep in mind, though, that this is meant to move pretty fast, so we're not looking for exceedingly long posts.
