Last year, twenty-four members were chosen. Twenty-four represented their site with dignity and honor. Twenty-three could not make it. Only one survived. The season of the OOC Games is upon us once more!
This year, things will be run a bit differently. Members will not be played by themselves; members will not be the characters played in the Sixty-Second-and-a-Half Hunger Games.
The theme for the 2012 OOC Games is Hunger Games All-Stars.
What does this mean? The 2012 OOC Games will be comprised entirely of former tributes from the 54th Hunger Games to the most recent 62nd Hunger Games. Victors may not participate, as they are not dead.
What does this mean for you specifically? This depends on several things: your availability (potentially) all day on December 29th and whether or not you've ever had at least one tribute.
>>If you have never had a tribute and still wish to participate, you may sign up for The Lottery (see below) to get a tribute entered in the reaping in your name
>>If you have had tributes and will not be around, you can put your former tributes in The Lottery to give those who have not had tributes a chance to participate.
>>If you have had tributes and will be around, you may enter as many of your tributes as you like under your own name. If you are feeling generous and/or don't care to play certain former tributes of yours, you may contribute some to the Lottery if you desire.
The Lottery will be a pool of donated tributes which will be paired with tribute-less members that would like a chance to participate. All pairing will be done randomly — you may NOT promise one of your tributes off to another member. If we have a large amount of tributes up for grabs, people who have had only one tribute will be allowed to submit their names for the lottery as well.
Still confused? Have an example:I have had three tributes that have died. Say I want to submit three of them for myself, but I'm going to put one, let's say Alexander Hood, into the lottery to be given to someone else who hasn't had a tribute to submit into the Reaping under their name.
OR:
I've found out that I can't be present at the OOC games—I'll be away that day. But I still have three tributes, and I'd like to do the nice thing and put them all into the lottery to be given to someone who will be there to play but has no tributes to submit.INFORMATION
>>The OOCG will begin promptly at 10:30am EST on Saturday, December 29th
>>The lottery drawing will be held one hour before the reaping. Both will be held 24hrs before the OOCG so that tributes have a bit of advance notice before being thrown right into the thick of things. This will also allow Training, Interviews, and the formation of alliances to take place the day before the OOCG themselves (i.e. friday)
