[6:44 PM] guest-73926 entered the room.
[6:44 PM] toni: tribute in the games
[6:44 PM] guest-73923 left the room.

[6:44 PM] roseh: it varies from District to District

[6:44 PM] guest-73953 entered the room.

[6:45 PM] toni: D6 is 13, D11s are 15 and 17
[6:45 PM] guest-73959 entered the room.
[6:45 PM] cael: How do you compete
[6:45 PM] aya: well, D6 and D11 are generally less populated
[6:45 PM] lulu: D6 more so than D11
[6:45 PM] guest-73959 changed nickname to joshisararity
[6:45 PM] aya: You mean the games themselves?
[6:45 PM] roseh: pthalo <3
[6:45 PM] cael: Yes.
[6:45 PM] cael: Immaking some one for D4
[6:45 PM] aya: Well, for the most part, you just RP like normal
[6:46 PM] toni: I am gonna get tessarae for the 17yr old. Would you say they are my best hope?
[6:46 PM] tom: ok so how does someone abtain a skill for an example stealth, do they gain it in training?
[6:46 PM] aya: Except there's the addition of combat, which is a randomly generated number that —
[6:46 PM] tom: *obtain
[6:46 PM] aya: corresponds to an attack
[6:46 PM] aya: I'd think so, Tori
[6:46 PM] aya: and yeah, skills are picked up in training
[6:46 PM] tom: ok
[6:46 PM] cael: Ugh
[6:47 PM] cael: Wheres training? OH fail
[6:47 PM] aya: you don't need to post in training, but at the beginning of the games, each tribute PMs —
[6:47 PM] lulu: you can train in three different stations
[6:47 PM] cael: U have to be picked right?
[6:47 PM] lulu: yeah
[6:47 PM] aya: the GM their training picks
[6:47 PM] lulu: training happens after the Reaping
[6:47 PM] aya: For the Games, Cael? Yep
[6:47 PM] cael: Yeah srry
[6:47 PM] cael: Forgot this was The Hunger Games
[6:47 PM] cael: Lol
[6:47 PM] toni: What stations are there?
[6:48 PM] aya: Here, let me grab you the thread from last Games
[6:48 PM] aya: hungergamesrpg.com/index.cgi?board=60thhginfo&action=display&thread=30639 @toni
[6:48 PM] aya: All of the stations listed there
[6:48 PM] nofo: Oh, Aya, is the chatlog being saved?
[6:49 PM] cael: Yeah it be good to review this stuff.
[6:49 PM] aya: mhm, I was planning on it
[6:49 PM] nofo: Okay, awesome.
[6:49 PM] cael: It would really help me.
[6:49 PM] cael: If is is saved.
[6:49 PM] cael: Where would it be?
[6:49 PM] lulu: probably in the original thread?
[6:49 PM] lulu: I think
[6:49 PM] aya: I'll post it on the announcement thread, yeah
[6:49 PM] lulu: whatever Aya wants
[6:49 PM] cael: ( Sorry, joined yesterday)
[6:50 PM] cael: Ok
[6:50 PM] nofo: Welcome!
[6:50 PM] aya: no need to apologize^^
[6:50 PM] aya: Stew, can you take over for a couple minutes, I wanna finish up this crown
[6:50 PM] lulu: mkay^^
[6:50 PM] cael: *GASP
[6:50 PM] roseh: <333 crowns
[6:50 PM] cael: Just realized aya was here. Lol
[6:51 PM] nofo: LOL She answered your question.
[6:51 PM] lulu: so D1 right now is the most populated in the reaping check by far xP
[6:52 PM] lulu: so as of right now, making excessive D1s is a bad idea xP
[6:52 PM] cael: Im making someone for D4.
[6:52 PM] joshisararity: but D1 is the best District
[6:52 PM] roseh: which is the least populated?
[6:52 PM] joshisararity: ;D
[6:52 PM] nofo: But I've got some planned.
[6:52 PM] lulu: D4 is second most populated - you can go for it, but your chance wouldn't be as good
[6:52 PM] cael: Hmmmm
[6:52 PM] lulu: D12 as of right now is least
[6:52 PM] roseh: lol
[6:52 PM] lulu: but D8 is only one person more
[6:52 PM] roseh: .-.
[6:53 PM] cael: I might make a D4 because i really want to, then make a D6 for the Games. Good Idea?
[6:53 PM] joshisararity: there are like no boys in 11 or 12, at least in the CD
[6:53 PM] lulu: sounds good, D6 could use more
[6:53 PM] roseh: <--working on d6 right now
[6:53 PM] toni: My D1 is adult so and I have a D6
[6:53 PM] lulu: also I advise making males
[6:53 PM] roseh: males <333
[6:53 PM] cael: I might do a D4 and a D8
[6:54 PM] nofo: Will there be any changes to the rules for these Games?
[6:54 PM] toni: and a 17yr male in D22
[6:54 PM] tom: D22? XD
[6:54 PM] roseh: .-. 22?
[6:54 PM] lulu: um, I'm gonna make an official rule on needles/threads xD
[6:54 PM] joshisararity: idk why lulu... xD
[6:54 PM] lulu: because people go overboard with that xD
[6:54 PM] nofo: Good idea!
[6:54 PM] roseh: xP
[6:54 PM] lulu: gonna say you can only do two uses per fight
[6:54 PM] toni: I meant 11
[6:54 PM] lulu: or maybe per day
[6:54 PM] lulu: yeah per day sounds better
[6:55 PM] lulu: so max you can heal with that is 10
[6:55 PM] lulu: per day
[6:55 PM] joshisararity: sounds fair
[6:55 PM] tom: sounds good
[6:55 PM] cael: Can u explain how it is in the Games
[6:55 PM] lulu: other than that, I can't think of any rule changes off the top of my head
[6:55 PM] lulu: and what do you wanna know, Cael?^^
[6:55 PM] cael: Fighting, surviving, Aliies?
[6:55 PM] lulu: ah, yeah
[6:56 PM] lulu: well first of all I think it's the best possible char development opportunity this site -
[6:56 PM] lulu: has to offer
[6:56 PM] tom: most people have already got their allies from the c-box
[6:56 PM] lulu: and not necessarily
[6:56 PM] tom: true
[6:56 PM] lulu: they all change around once we find out who's actually reaped
[6:56 PM] nofo: People tend to align with their friends.
[6:56 PM] roseh: mhmm
[6:56 PM] lulu: once the reaping happens, people make alliances fast
[6:56 PM] lulu: and during training, they RP with their allies
[6:56 PM] cael: How do u get an ally?
[6:56 PM] lulu: just talk to people
[6:57 PM] nofo: A lot of us know who our dream alliances our provided it all works out, but the odds are s
[6:57 PM] nofo: are provided*
[6:57 PM] nofo: slim
[6:57 PM] lulu: once you have a group of people, you sign up your alliance on a thread
[6:57 PM] nofo: the odds are slim
[6:57 PM] toni: I see
[6:57 PM] lulu: that will be posted during training
[6:57 PM] lulu: max is 4 tributes per alliance
[6:57 PM] cael: Can you make an allaince in-Game?
[6:57 PM] lulu: yup
[6:57 PM] lulu: then you register it on the alliance thread
[6:57 PM] lulu: so it gets put into effect the next Games day
[6:58 PM] lulu: if you forget to register, you might end up in a mandated fight with your ally
[6:58 PM] lulu: so that's bad
[6:58 PM] lulu: and did you want an explanation on fighting?
[6:58 PM] nofo: Also, at the beginning of the Games, there will be the Bloodbath. If you're the last tribu
[6:58 PM] cael: Sure. Anything you can give.
[6:58 PM] nofo: te or alliance at the BB, you get the Wealth.
[6:59 PM] lulu: Alright, so basically how fighting works is each Games day, we assign a couple of fights -
[6:59 PM] lulu: between tributes who are in the same arena areas
[6:59 PM] cael: ok
[6:59 PM] lulu: those are called mandated fights
[6:59 PM] lulu: and in those, at least one person/mutt has to die
[6:59 PM] lulu: we also make mandated mutt fights
[6:59 PM] cael: So mutts can fight other mutts?
[6:59 PM] lulu: you're allowed to fight outside of those, but those are non-mandated so no one has to die
[6:59 PM] nofo: LOL
[7:00 PM] lulu: nope, mutts fight tributes
[7:00 PM] lulu: I wish mutts could fight other mutts, that'd be awesome xD
[7:00 PM] cael: Yes but...nvm
[7:00 PM] roseh: it would be awesome ^^
[7:00 PM] nofo: Oh, that would be fun for the staff who don't get tributes.
[7:00 PM] cael: SPOILER ALERT*******They do in MockingJay.
[7:00 PM] lulu: and each Games day, all of this information such as mandated fights, previous day's -
[7:01 PM] lulu: death, weather, damage scores, etc are posted in an Anthem thread
[7:01 PM] lulu: so the posting of an anthem signals the start of a new Games day
[7:01 PM] toni: how can members who don't get tributes help in the games?
[7:02 PM] lulu: they can sponsor
[7:02 PM] nofo: Sponsorship happens, so there's that.
[7:02 PM] lulu: which is a huge help
[7:02 PM] cael: OH YEAH
[7:02 PM] aya: they can also bet
[7:02 PM] cael: How do you get money
[7:02 PM] lulu: by posting
[7:02 PM] lulu: $5 per post
[7:02 PM] aya: also, betting
[7:02 PM] cael: Ugh
[7:02 PM] nofo: Oh, speaking of that, will that be paid out soon?
[7:02 PM] aya: yep, after this
[7:02 PM] nofo: Okay.
[7:03 PM] cael: Would i be paid for making a charector?
[7:03 PM] lulu: yeah, betting is a great way to get money
[7:03 PM] lulu: and yup, because that's a post
[7:03 PM] cael: YAYAYYAYAYAY
[7:03 PM] cael: Free monz
[7:03 PM] cael: ok
[7:03 PM] lulu: only place where posting doesn't count is the district square
[7:03 PM] lulu: because that's considered just chat
[7:03 PM] nofo: And the JFF fights.
[7:03 PM] joshisararity: OMG AYA
[7:03 PM] joshisararity: MY CROWN
[7:03 PM] toni: I will have to bet if I don't get reaped, more money for next time
[7:04 PM] nofo: omfr it's gorgeous
[7:04 PM] cael: Can you explain JF fights
[7:04 PM] aya: Any modifications to it?
[7:04 PM] joshisararity: um It's perfect!
[7:04 PM] nofo: Well, just for fun fights arejust spammy fights that don't really count towards anything.
[7:04 PM] joshisararity: I love it alksfkasd
[7:04 PM] aya: alright, great!
[7:04 PM] lulu: the battlefield board is the only other place besides the arena where the fight system is-
[7:04 PM] lulu: installed
[7:04 PM] joshisararity: also I have a question
[7:04 PM] nofo: It's just a way to test the combat system.
[7:05 PM] cael: Can i try(where is it)
[7:05 PM] joshisararity: is there a certain amount of time before the victor presentation ceremony thread? or is it
[7:05 PM] joshisararity: whenever?
[7:05 PM] lulu: very bottom of the site^^ and yeah, pthalo, I'll get that up for you tonight

[7:06 PM] aya: lemme see if I can dig up a tutorial on di
[7:06 PM] aya: *dice
[7:06 PM] cael: Dont know what any of that is
[7:06 PM] cael: l

[7:07 PM] aya: for example [dice=200+2000] is a knife attack
[7:08 PM] joshisararity changed nickname to pthalo
[7:08 PM] nofo: Fun!

[7:14 PM] aya: and Turn Delay...
[7:14 PM] nofo: Well, that was meant to be excited but I guess capitalizing both letters doesn't really
[7:14 PM] cael: hmmmm. If you are posting this, i may leave soon
[7:14 PM] pika: I've been here for two years and still don't know how TD works.
[7:14 PM] nofo: accomplish that
[7:14 PM] aya: TD is the added one point on high-damage attacks (6+)
[7:14 PM] pika: So every time you post, you get an extra damage point?
[7:14 PM] meeeeeg: Ah of course, the last map was small. So this games, you can do as many threads as you
[7:14 PM] aya: it comes into effect thre
[7:14 PM] flightofnight101: Okie dokie...
[7:14 PM] pika: Or when is that added on?
[7:14 PM] meeeeeg: want but they can only be in that one location?

[7:15 PM] cael: Wait
[7:15 PM] lulu: mhm, meg
[7:15 PM] rosetta: Shh. Let's stay on one topic at a time.
[7:15 PM] aya: *three attacks after the 6+ attack
[7:15 PM] cael: Whats with the map
[7:15 PM] rosetta: Ah, it makes more sense now.
[7:15 PM] aya: and then every two after that, so starting from the first attack it's 3, 5, 7, etc
[7:15 PM] nofo: Will the rule on broken legs from the Quell be carried over to future Games?
[7:15 PM] rosetta left the room.
[7:16 PM] lulu: I think it should be
[7:16 PM] aya: Mhm
[7:16 PM] pthalo: what was that rule again?
[7:16 PM] aya: it's a good rule
[7:16 PM] lulu: three posts to flee
[7:16 PM] aya: in the bloodbath (and the BB only) if you get a broken leg, three non-attack posts to flee
[7:16 PM] pthalo: ok, I wasnt sure if there was another
[7:16 PM] aya: like Julian had to do
[7:16 PM] nofo: And then regular movement<3
[7:16 PM] pthalo: ye

[7:21 PM] specialk: And one belongs to WT
[7:21 PM] cael: What do you mean, play a victor
[7:21 PM] specialk: and one belongs to Luna/Dee
[7:21 PM] aya: and I've had tributes in the others xP except africa xP
[7:21 PM] lulu: you're playing a victor character
[7:21 PM] pika: One more question about TD. So after the first three attacks you get one more
[7:21 PM] flightofnight101: Be right back, gonna go make another character soon!
[7:21 PM] fleurdelcaour left the room.
[7:21 PM] nofo: Well, if you win the Games, you get to keep that character...
[7:21 PM] lulu: your character is alive, and now they are a victor
[7:21 PM] pika: damage point. And then it doubles after the next three?
[7:21 PM] lulu: so you get to roleplay them
[7:22 PM] lulu: which is really cool
[7:22 PM] aya: nope, +1 on each
[7:22 PM] specialk: money, awesomeness, they don't die
[7:22 PM] cael: Like Haymitch? Or.. oh, You become a Victor charector
[7:22 PM] cael: fail
[7:22 PM] specialk: you don't have to post a deathpost
[7:22 PM] flightofnight101 left the room.
[7:22 PM] lulu: but after that it's every other turn, pika
[7:22 PM] aya: 3 = +1, 5 = +1, 7 = +1
[7:22 PM] georgia: heey,
[7:22 PM] lulu: so say I get a deep gash on turn 1, then on turn 4 I'll get +1
[7:22 PM] lulu: then after that, turn 6, turn 8, etc
[7:22 PM] pika: Oh!
[7:23 PM] nofo: Hey Georgia
[7:23 PM] pika: Okay, makes sense now (:
[7:23 PM] georgia: Hiya Nofo.
[7:23 PM] pika: And it's always one more damage point?
[7:23 PM] aya: yeah, just one point
[7:23 PM] cael: Well I think i may leave now
[7:23 PM] pika: Okay, cool. Thanks!
[7:23 PM] nofo: How many days of water/food can you gain per post?
[7:23 PM] cael: wait
[7:23 PM] nofo: Or is it a certain amount per day?
[7:23 PM] aya: ...huh?
[7:23 PM] cael: yeah
[7:24 PM] specialk: i thought it was one every post
[7:24 PM] cael: Can u die of thirst or hunger
[7:24 PM] aya: yup
[7:24 PM] lulu: yes, cael
[7:24 PM] georgia: How to people die...? DO you RP to the death kinda thing?
[7:24 PM] nofo: Like, say I was in a area with water.
[7:24 PM] aya: yeah, georgia
[7:24 PM] lulu: well there's a fight system, georgia
[7:24 PM] specialk: Wait, there is no water this upcomming games
[7:24 PM] aya: you can fill all of your jugs with water
[7:24 PM] lulu: based on dice rolls
[7:24 PM] specialk: right?
[7:24 PM] cael: So,
[7:24 PM] nofo: Oh.
[7:24 PM] cael: okok
[7:24 PM] nofo: In one post?
[7:24 PM] lulu: there is water

[7:24 PM] lulu: *i
[7:24 PM] cael: Wait
[7:24 PM] specialk: What?
[7:24 PM] georgia: Oh, ok Lulu. So kinda luck too?
[7:24 PM] specialk: that makes no sense.
[7:25 PM] cael: Can you fish too?
[7:25 PM] pthalo: can saltwater be purified with iodine? or would it need to boil?
[7:25 PM] lulu: yup, georgia, a whole lot of luck^^
[7:25 PM] lulu: ocean water is purifiable xP
[7:25 PM] nofo: Will there be peglegs in the Cornucopia?
[7:25 PM] lulu: and yeah, I'd say it has to boil
[7:25 PM] specialk: But there is still salt?
[7:25 PM] lulu: not if you boil it
[7:25 PM] specialk: so firemaking is good to take
[7:25 PM] lulu: that's the whole point of boiling
[7:25 PM] specialk: *notes*
[7:25 PM] lulu: boiling separates the salt and water
[7:25 PM] specialk: yes, i know
[7:25 PM] lulu: so this will be like the 59th
[7:26 PM] specialk: cept a little different
[7:26 PM] lulu: I'm gonna put a freshwater stream in the forest
[7:26 PM] aya: a little less chilly
[7:26 PM] cael: Ugh
[7:26 PM] nofo: Yay.
[7:26 PM] specialk: Oh, that makes life easy
[7:26 PM] georgia: How do you get training scores? Luck again?
[7:26 PM] specialk: bye peeps
[7:26 PM] specialk left the room.
[7:26 PM] lulu: nope, you PM an RP of a private training session
[7:26 PM] lulu: to the gamemaker
[7:26 PM] lulu: and they give you a score based on what your tribute did^^
[7:26 PM] aya: which is an RP of your private session
[7:26 PM] georgia: Who is the gamekeeper?
[7:27 PM] aya: ...redundancy

[7:29 PM] lulu: unless your tribute is from 1, 2, 5, 10, or 12
[7:29 PM] aya: I'm not even gonna try to answer any more xD
[7:29 PM] lulu: those are districts that have won before in our Games, so we have victor characters

[7:35 PM] python: If one of your charries is reaped, but you have another charrie from that same district
[7:35 PM] ayla: thank you!
[7:35 PM] aya: first link on there gives you a form to fill out^^
[7:35 PM] python: are you allowed to have the second one volunteer?
[7:35 PM] pthalo: ...
[7:35 PM] aya: yeah xD
[7:35 PM] python: xD
[7:35 PM] thisischarity: Is there a word count on the posts if you are reaped?
[7:35 PM] python: and they dont have to be siblings?
[7:35 PM] lulu: no word count
[7:35 PM] aya: not a word count, we just require site minimum: one solid paragraph^^
[7:35 PM] aya: don't have to be siblings, no
[7:36 PM] aya: if you get the spot, you get priority
[7:36 PM] thisischarity: Is there a time limit between posts?
[7:36 PM] python: okay thanks. i was just wondering.
[7:36 PM] lulu: well each Games day has a deadline
[7:36 PM] python left the room.
[7:36 PM] tom: Ok so if I already have a character who is reaped can another charrie from a different D
[7:36 PM] lulu: so if you don't post by the deadline, your tribute is considered inactive
[7:36 PM] lulu: and killed
[7:36 PM] aya: not a specific limit between posts, but each day has a deadline, and sometimes you might —
[7:36 PM] tom: be reaped also?
[7:36 PM] lulu: usually we rereap the spot when that happens
[7:36 PM] aya: need to finish a fight thread, which can be several posts per person
[7:37 PM] tom: ok ^^
[7:37 PM] lulu: we used to let you pick the one you want and step down with the other, but last Games we -
[7:37 PM] aya: I try to ask whoever it is, Tom, or see if one of their characters has tessera or somethin
[7:37 PM] lulu: made a thread where everyone with reapable characters placed them in preference order, so-
[7:37 PM] aya: which sort of indicates that you'd prefer that character
[7:37 PM] guest-75183 entered the room.
[7:37 PM] lulu: we know which one they'd want if they get double reaped
[7:37 PM] aya: oh, yeah, we should do that again
[7:37 PM] lulu: mhm, will^^
[7:37 PM] guest-75183 changed nickname to sarella
[7:38 PM] ayla: how do you improve your chances of gettin picked?
[7:38 PM] sarella: Forgot a question xD Anyways, someone said that you would pick for us if two characters
[7:38 PM] sarella: were Reaped,
[7:38 PM] aya: Buying tessera is really the only way
[7:38 PM] ayla: and how can you do that?
[7:38 PM] guest-75219 entered the room.
[7:38 PM] sarella: So if I wanted a D11 Reaped, and both a D11 and a D3 were Reaped, which would go in?
[7:38 PM] guest-75219 changed nickname to anthenatherebel
[7:39 PM] aya: there's a separate thread in the Hunger Games Info board
[7:39 PM] aya: and you post on there
[7:39 PM] lulu: soon I'm going to be making a thread, Sarella, asking everyone with reapable characters -
[7:39 PM] lulu: to list them in order of which ones they'd most want in the arena
[7:39 PM] lulu: so in the event that someone gets reaped twice, I'd look at the thread to see which one -
[7:39 PM] lulu: they prefer
[7:39 PM] lulu: and rereap the other position
[7:40 PM] anthenatherebel: Interesting...
[7:40 PM] sarella: Ohkay, nice idea
[7:40 PM] ayla: nice
[7:40 PM] sarella: thanks
[7:40 PM] sarella left the room.
[7:40 PM] nofo: lol why does she keep leaving
[7:41 PM] lulu: any other questions?^^
[7:42 PM] ayla: Is there also going to be a thred where the fighting is explained?
[7:42 PM] ayla: Like, I know there's a randomnizer
[7:42 PM] ayla: but how many attacks can you put in one post?
[7:42 PM] thisischarity left the room.
[7:42 PM] lulu: only one^^
[7:42 PM] anthenatherebel: What are the chances of one charrie getting reaped? Like percent wise if you are 14 and -
[7:42 PM] lulu: it's a pretty simple system: put in the dice code for your weapon, look at the number -
[7:42 PM] anthenatherebel: have 3 tessera
[7:43 PM] aya: depends on the district and gender
[7:43 PM] lulu: that gets rolled, and find the corresponding attack and damage on the reference sheet
[7:43 PM] aya: and it's impossible to say until the check closes
[7:43 PM] ayla: which district has the most chance?
[7:43 PM] ayla:
[7:43 PM] lulu: as of right now, 12 is least populated in the check
[7:43 PM] aya: um... right now
[7:43 PM] lulu: with 8 close be
[7:43 PM] lulu: *behind
[7:43 PM] anthenatherebel: They say district 12 is like a death sentence....
[7:43 PM] ayla: *goes off to make charrie*
[7:43 PM] ayla: haha
[7:44 PM] lulu: alright, I have to have dinner, love, can you handle it?^^
[7:44 PM] aya: yeah, for now^^
[7:44 PM] aya: you eat fast so it should be okay^^
[7:44 PM] lulu: alright, be right back^^
[7:44 PM] aya: gonna have to eat too soon x
[7:44 PM] aya: mkay^^ love you^^
[7:44 PM] aya: alright, more questions?^^
[7:45 PM] ayla: So in the games themselves, how much can you influence the outcome?
[7:45 PM] ayla: or are you literally in the hands of a randomnizer?
[7:45 PM] nofo: lol very liitle
[7:45 PM] ayla: haha
[7:45 PM] aya: you have some influence^^
[7:45 PM] aya: you can decide what training your tribute takes, how well-liked they are^^
[7:45 PM] aya: which does help
[7:46 PM] aya: aaaaand... oh, other strategy thing
[7:46 PM] aya: where they move and stuff
[7:46 PM] aya: who their allies are
[7:46 PM] inkrage: do you decide when they die?
[7:46 PM] aya: a lot of it is luck, but you'd be sunk without strategy
[7:46 PM] inkrage: you being the gamemakers....
[7:46 PM] aya: oh, nope
[7:46 PM] aya: not really
[7:46 PM] ayla: Okay, so if you pick a certain part of the arena you may avoid some attack of the gamemake
[7:47 PM] ayla: rs*
[7:47 PM] anthenatherebel: May I ask something?
[7:47 PM] aya: possibly
[7:47 PM] aya: Hm?
[7:47 PM] ayla: course athena

[7:48 PM] ayla: oh and how can you make your charrie well liked? Is there a voting system or something?
[7:48 PM] ayla: @pthalo: hahaha
[7:48 PM] anthenatherebel: roller do the job? You do the job? Just wondering since its my first year
[7:48 PM] pthalo: aya made it, not me, but it was fitting for your question xD
[7:49 PM] aya: oh, no, that's a really subtle thing, Ayla. // it depends. Mutt fights will be done by —
[7:49 PM] ayla: boromir, muc funnier after death
[7:49 PM] aya: staff of some kind, but most random events have the tribute they affect roll
[7:50 PM] meeeeeg: and you write the REs before the games, right?
[7:50 PM] meeeeeg: lol, probs should have asked these questions BEFORE the 60th
[7:50 PM] aya: the GM writes them all beforehand, yes
[7:50 PM] aya: Lulu's written most if not all of them for the 61st already
[7:50 PM] ayla: sorry, the what? RE?
[7:50 PM] aya: Random Events
[7:50 PM] ayla: oh
[7:50 PM] meeeeeg: On ya, Lulu!
[7:51 PM] inkrage: oh haha just got that
[7:51 PM] tom: Ok so that means if I get reaped and a RE happens I'll just blame Lulu XD
[7:51 PM] ayla: How long did it take for you guys to put this system together?
[7:52 PM] inkrage: how do we find items when we are in the arena (like weapons and stuff...)
[7:52 PM] aya: it's been a work in progress for a few years xD the bulk of it was just a month or so for—
[7:52 PM] aya: the 54th games (not even, really; it was kind of last minute)
[7:52 PM] aya: but there have been a lot of tweaks since
[7:53 PM] anthenatherebel: interesting...
[7:53 PM] aya: for example, random events were added the 57th, needing to eat and drink was added the —
[7:53 PM] aya: 55th
[7:53 PM] ayla: well, props to you guys
[7:54 PM] ayla: for making it like this
[7:54 PM] aya: thanks^^
[7:54 PM] ayla: It really comes close to the books now
[7:54 PM] aya: yup, that was the idea^^

[7:56 PM] aya: yeah, definitely
[7:56 PM] anthenatherebel: I forgot what the hell I was going to say....dammit....
[7:56 PM] aya: max of 4 tributes for each alliance
[7:56 PM] anthenatherebel: Wait....NOW I KNOW!
[7:56 PM] ayla: so first come first serve?
[7:56 PM] aya: and you can change them as often as you want, but it doesn't go into effect til the next —
[7:56 PM] aya: day
[7:56 PM] aya: and it depends on the people, Ayla xD
[7:56 PM] aya: hmm, Anthena?
[7:57 PM] anthenatherebel: Alright so, Is their really a requirment for the games. Most of the time people with-
[7:58 PM] ayla: Thanks for all the info Aya
[7:58 PM] ayla: I think I know enough for now, though don't be surprised if I come back and pepper you
[7:58 PM] ayla: again
[7:58 PM] ayla: ;-)
[7:58 PM] anthenatherebel: short, undetailed paragraphs are the first to go. Also, has there been one person to -
[7:58 PM] anthenatherebel: win who has done this?
[7:59 PM] aya: Um... well, there isn't technically a requirement, but for whatever reason those who just—
[7:59 PM] aya: RP with little paragraphs like that get picked off prettu quickly, yeah
[7:59 PM] aya: As far as victors... well, when I won with Arbor in the 54th my writing wasn't that great
[8:00 PM] inkrage: what is the average word count tributes do per post?
[8:00 PM] aya: we do urge everyone who gets a tribute to get a bit of RP tutoring, though
[8:00 PM] aya: um... I don't have an exact figure, but I'd say probably between 300-600 words, but there—
[8:00 PM] aya: is a lot of variation there
[8:00 PM] nofo: But I might add that the Bloodbath is generally shorter posts because it moves very quickl
[8:00 PM] inkrage: oh alright
[8:01 PM] nofo: quickly
[8:01 PM] nofo: and there is little time to prepare posts
[8:01 PM] aya: Yeah, what nofo said
[8:01 PM] ayla: so what if you're like me and you live on the other side of the world
[8:01 PM] tom: oh how quickly can you leave the BB
[8:01 PM] lulu: alright, back
[8:02 PM] ayla: and you may be sleeping while others are peppering posts in bloodbath
[8:02 PM] meeeeeg: ayla, i'm also Aussie and I managed to come 5th in these games
[8:02 PM] aya: okay good timing, sweetheart, I gotta go xD
[8:02 PM] aya: bye all^
[8:02 PM] meeeeeg: It's actually an advantage because lots of people have fleed
[8:02 PM] anthenatherebel: Do you HAVE to join in the bloodbath? Do most who dont survive longer or die quicker?
[8:02 PM] ayla: enjoy your dinner aya
[8:02 PM] aya: yeah you have to
[8:02 PM] lulu: you have to be in the bloodbath at some point
[8:02 PM] aya: bye!
[8:02 PM] aya: ...wait what am I doing
[8:02 PM] ayla: haha
[8:02 PM] aya: oh yeah leaving oops bye!
[8:03 PM] lulu: people who post then leave right away generally do badly
[8:03 PM] ayla: thanks meg
[8:03 PM] lulu: because the more you post in the bloodbath, the more survival items you get
[8:03 PM] meeeeeg: Did I really just use the word 'fleed'?
[8:03 PM] ayla: hahah
[8:03 PM] nofo: Or fight people for water jugs and insta then immediately be instad in return.
[8:03 PM] inkrage: how do you get the survival items from the BB?
[8:03 PM] meeeeeg: Not the water jug death\
[8:03 PM] meeeeeg: Karma games!
[8:03 PM] lulu: we randomly generate an item list for each tribute
[8:04 PM] lulu: each post attacking another tribute you make gets you an item off of it
[8:04 PM] ayla: So meg, how did you keep up in BB?
[8:04 PM] anthenatherebel: Yeah, I will probably die the first day if get reaped. My charrie might as well say good-
[8:04 PM] inkrage: ok that makes sence
[8:04 PM] anthenatherebel: bye to her lover, Hunter[Gavrox's charrie]
[8:04 PM] lulu: so say I go in, make one attack post, then flee, I just got the first item off my list
[8:04 PM] ayla: Did you just plan to be awake?
[8:04 PM] lulu: meg actually entered late, didn't she? xD
[8:05 PM] meeeeeg: Yeah I did
[8:05 PM] meeeeeg: I had a competition that day
[8:05 PM] ayla: okay, so you don't neccesarily have to do lot of posts in BB
[8:05 PM] lulu: you don't have to enter right away, but if you enter too late there may not be people -
[8:05 PM] nofo: and then go fight another tribute for their jug and win but die because there is a nice
[8:05 PM] nofo: breeze going to your brain
[8:05 PM] lulu: left to attack, which means you can't get a lot of items
[8:05 PM] lulu: it's all strategy, depends on what you want to do^^
[8:05 PM] meeeeeg: And people are already armed
[8:06 PM] ayla: so is there like a timeline? Something like [insert date plus time BB starts]
[8:06 PM] tom: What if your the last one to join the BB and then everyone else has ran away do you get -
[8:06 PM] meeeeeg: I would have liked to have a couple more turns to get a water jug
[8:06 PM] tom: the other items on your list still
[8:06 PM] lulu: well we don't say the exact time it starts
[8:06 PM] ayla: oh
[8:06 PM] ayla: I really hope it's on a sunday then
[8:06 PM] lulu: but it will be pretty early, generally 10ish site time
[8:06 PM] ayla:
[8:06 PM] lulu: it's on a saturday, always
[8:06 PM] lulu: and no, tom
[8:07 PM] lulu: you have to make posts attacking people to get your items
[8:07 PM] inkrage: so, you cant attack and then flee on the same post, correct?
[8:07 PM] lulu: if there's no one to attack, you can't make attacking posts, so you can't get your items
[8:07 PM] lulu: nope
[8:07 PM] ayla: 10'ish site ime is the default time when you join?
[8:07 PM] lulu: yup, should be, we go on EST
[8:07 PM] anthenatherebel: Might I ask something non-game related?
[8:07 PM] lulu: sure^^
[8:08 PM] anthenatherebel: What fonts are supported on these forums?
[8:08 PM] nofo: Because I was born this way.
[8:08 PM] lulu: there was just a thread about that, let me link you^^
[8:09 PM] anthenatherebel: Thanks, I was wondering because I am creating a bio and want it to be beautiful
[8:09 PM] anthenatherebel: Especially with this quote i have

[8:09 PM] ayla: lol I just bug other people to make templates for me
[8:10 PM] anthenatherebel: Id rather do the work, always a well worked accomplishment
[8:10 PM] nofo: Well, this was fun.
[8:11 PM] lulu: any more questions?^^
[8:12 PM] ayla: Yeah, say your charrie is alone, seperated from others
[8:12 PM] anthenatherebel: I just thought of one too......I will wait though
[8:12 PM] ayla: will there always be a RE to put your char 'back into the game' soto say
[8:12 PM] ayla: ?
[8:13 PM] lulu: well, it's hard to be separated in the arenas we have
[8:13 PM] lulu: because there aren't a lot of areas
[8:13 PM] ayla: @anthenatherebel: your manners are refreshing
[8:13 PM] ayla: ah ok
[8:13 PM] lulu: generally if not a lot has been going on for a tribute and no one's in their area, -
[8:14 PM] lulu: though, we might put them in a fight against a mutt
[8:14 PM] ayla: and a mutt gets an rp account too?
[8:14 PM] lulu: nope, a mutt is played by a staff member who isn't in the Games
[8:15 PM] ayla: but they use the same randomnizer
[8:15 PM] ayla: ?
[8:15 PM] lulu: and it's played just like a regular character, with an RP post and yes, they use the same-
[8:15 PM] lulu: randomizer
[8:15 PM] ayla: thanks for elaborating
[8:15 PM] lulu: so a mutt is a lot like facing a regular tribute, but usually they have a different -
[8:15 PM] lulu: number of damage points required to kill them
[8:16 PM] ayla: higher or lower?
[8:16 PM] lulu: depends on the mutt, but the vast majority of the time it's lower
[8:16 PM] ayla: ok
[8:16 PM] lulu: we had a stegosaurus that had 60 last games, I think that was the highest we've ever had
[8:16 PM] lulu: human tributes have 40
[8:16 PM] ayla: wow
[8:16 PM] inkrage: do we keep track of our damage points? or do the gamemakers?
[8:17 PM] anthenatherebel: *sighs*
[8:17 PM] lulu: we use a spreadsheet and update all the damage on there^^
[8:17 PM] lulu: so you can keep track if you'd like, most people do, but there will also be a place to -
[8:17 PM] ayla: Anthena: butt in whenever you feel like it dear
[8:17 PM] lulu: look and see that I'll update regularly^^
[8:17 PM] lulu: and yeah, anthena, ask whenever you'd like^^

[8:21 PM] lulu: well if it's just a public whipping you can roleplay that out in the district

[8:23 PM] lulu: if they could pick^^
[8:23 PM] ayla: and this has influence on the outcome?
[8:23 PM] lulu: nope
[8:23 PM] lulu: has nothing to do with the actual reaping xD
[8:23 PM] lulu: it's just something people like to do for fun^^
[8:23 PM] ayla: haha yeah because I was like "I have no shot at this" when I read that
[8:24 PM] lulu: haha nope, doesn't effect chances at all^^

[8:26 PM] anthenatherebel: excited! My chances are like 00.001% maybe even less then that though
[8:26 PM] nofo: And we thought the reaping for the 60th was intense
[8:26 PM] ayla: or maybe you go in like Katniss and end up on top
[8:26 PM] lulu: well with all the new members from the movie we're getting overloaded this time around xD
[8:27 PM] anthenatherebel: Should be fun! I hate it when people go and see the movies but dont read the books. really

[8:27 PM] anthenatherebel: pisses me off
[8:27 PM] nofo: Oh, it will.

[8:28 PM] ayla: Oh and I only read the books after the movie
[8:28 PM] lulu: well if we're doing three a year
[8:28 PM] anthenatherebel: AYLA! -glares at you-

[8:29 PM] nofo: lu
[8:30 PM] lulu: it's possible
[8:30 PM] nofo: It seems like the Capitol would make the Quarter Quells more intense
[8:30 PM] lulu: I don't know how much more special we'd be able to do xD
[8:30 PM] anthenatherebel: God...I know you guys make the simulation video but it is so tempting!!!!!

[8:48 PM] lulu: like post other character's reactions to him in the games?
[8:49 PM] coltimall: Yes, but you made up the char and it's in the tributes name under char info.
[8:49 PM] inkrage: joined the group whiteboard.
[8:49 PM] lulu: oh, like an NPC?
[8:49 PM] lulu: non player character?
[8:50 PM] lulu: you'd have to actually create the character before you post with them
[8:50 PM] coltimall: Yes. And maybe make it a PC after the games with the games as a back drop.
[8:50 PM] coltimall: Okay. Thank you. I'm done with questions.
[8:50 PM] cait: okay like can you hav a trib in the current games if you were in the previous games? and
[8:50 PM] cait: is there a limit?
[8:50 PM] lulu: you can be reaped in a row as many times as it happens, the limit is on volunteering
[8:51 PM] aya: if you've been in 2 consecutive games you can't volunteer the first day

[8:51 PM] lulu: and if you win the games, you can't be in the next one
[8:51 PM] lulu: yes, coltimall, we only allow one per player, so if someone gets reaped twice we rereap -
[8:51 PM] lulu: one of the positions
[8:52 PM] roseh: aya, I has a question for you
[8:52 PM] cait: do you get to choose which spot you want if you get 2?
[8:52 PM] aya: hm?
[8:52 PM] coltimall: Oh good. I was scared. I will leave now.
[8:52 PM] lulu: what we do is make a thread, I'll make it very soon, where every player who has reapable -
[8:52 PM] roseh: What did you have for supper/dinner?
[8:52 PM] roseh: :3
[8:52 PM] lulu: character will have to post their preference order for them
[8:52 PM] treethrower: lol
