Good morning and welcome to the 91st Annual Hunger Games Bloodbath, Tributes! Your Gamemakers have developed a very special Games for you. First and foremost, we would like to encourage each and every one of you to read the rules, as it makes life a lot easier for everyone when all parties involved are aware of the rules and expectations. Please note the new rules introduced as of this Games.
For smooth operation of the bloodbath, please be aware of the following:
1. You must wait TEN MINUTES between each of your posts. This counts for every post. This means 10 minutes between your intro and your first attack, 10 minutes between each of your attacks, and 10 minutes between your last attack and your flee post.
2. In order to verify this, you must quote your previous post at the beginning of each new post (exception, intro)
2. a. It is possible to edit the timestamp of your quoted post to make it look like you posted earlier than you did. This is considered cheating. This will not be tolerated. Anyone tribute caught doing this will sustain +20 damage and will have their attack/flee invalidated.
2. b. Please start each post (before any tables) with your tribute's name, what attack number this is, and, at the end, whatever the dice code you roll is. For example: [Arbor Halt, attack 3, 2069].
2. c. When you quote your previous post, please delete EVERYTHING besides the tribute's name, attack number, and dice code (as given above)
3. Other rules about bloodbath combat still stand:- you must wait until at least three other people have posted before you can post again
- if you are in an alliance of four, you must wait until someone outside your alliance has posted before you can post again
- you can only be attacked TWO times between each of your posts
- your first post must be an intro with no attacks in it
- your first attack post must be unarmed before you can claim a weapon
- you may not attack in your fleeing post
- if you have a broken or severed leg or leg part, you may not flee without the aid of another tribute, who must also flee. Alternatively, you may flee on your own using three separate flee posts instead of one.
- once you flee, you may not re-enter the bloodbath
- fillers are not allowed
- all dice codes must be immediately obvious, even if you are using a table. Either put it beneath the table entirely, or make it easily accessible.
- you must specify who you're attacking
- all items - including weapons - that are picked up by a tribute can be claimed by the tribute’s killer
ANY violations of these rules will result in an additional 8 damage dealt to the offending tribute.
Each tribute's damage will be updated on the Hunger Games Engine, so pay attention and don't forget to refresh the page!
To clarify, the Wealth also includes any unclaimed items. In order to be eligible for the Wealth a tribute must post within the first 10 minutes OR be within the first 19 to post.
Turn order will be instituted at the end of the Bloodbath (at the discretion of the Gamemakers, when it's clear only a few alliances are fighting for the Wealth).
Good luck Tributes and may the odds be ever in your favor.

A jostling of tankards and mugs ring out around the area. The sound of music coming from seemingly nowhere. The heat comes first as you feel the humid air hit you. A loud clattering of glass coming from somewhere as the final ascent comes to an end. Except, where you have found yourself is empty. The sounds from before are silent as if everything’s stopped and all eyes are on you.
Around you, there are a number of half full tankards of a strong smelling liquid. A stage that’s now empty except for some of the instruments that once played tunes. Potted plants and trophies from stories you’ve never heard or seen line the walls. Marks along the floor give way to the idea of scuffles and liveliness inside this place. All of you stand in a circle around the room, tables and chairs in the way of the endless supply of items, weapons, and anything else a tribute would need. A voice comes through, lighthearted and present, all of you notice the gelatinous creature who speaks to you.
”Welcome Adventurers to Pots and Petals Tavern! It seems like you’ve all come on such short notice! Well don’t be shy, I always loved to see a good ole tavern brawl!” Almost as if on cue the creature smiles, the clock starts to tick down. ”Whoever proves they are the strongest adventurers will get some of my prized beer and some other goodies!” Five. Four. Three. ”Oh! And don’t get any blood on my bar! Thank you!” Two. One. The room grows brighter and the sound of a crescendo of instruments begins.
”Let the Tavern Brawl begin!”(- Tom )
