This long weekend (starting at 12am EST on Friday and ending at 11:59pm EST on Monday) I will be hosting a second Wiki Marathon to fill in as many of the article-less tributes' pages as possible.
What does this entail?
Participants will be assigned a random tribute that does not yet have a page. They will read through this tribute's posts, from reaping until death, and gather adequate information to write a full Wiki article on said tribute. When finished, participants may take on another tribute from the list.
What are the benefits of participating?
1. The wiki gets filled in! This will be a great resource for new members and old members alike who are interested in learning more about the past Games.
2. Participants are given a great opportunity to get to know a bit about former tributes in-depth.
3. The participant(s) with the biggest contributions will be awarded a sitemoney cash prize! Biggest contribution will not be determined solely by number of tribute pages written — quality and depth comes before quantity!4. The more tribute knowledge you have, the better you will do in the next round of HGRPG Jeopardy.
PRIZES:
Biggest Contributors: $1000 site money each AND a sneak peek at the map for the 64th Hunger Games before anyone else gets to see it.
All participants (1 article or more): $100 site money
Questions and Answers:
Will I be able to choose what tribute I get to write about?
Tributes will be assigned at random. If there is another tribute you'd prefer to write about, feel free, but only pages for assigned tributes will be counted toward the biggest contribution prizes.
My tribute doesn't have a page yet, but I'd like to write it myself in the future. I just haven't had the time! Can I reserve that page?
If you would like to remove your past tribute from the random tributes pool, create their article between now and friday night. You do not have to finish it, you just need to create the page.
If I don't sign up, can I still participate?
Anyone can begin participating at any time! However, please only sign up if you can commit to at least one tribute page — I will be preparing a list of the tributes that are assigned to people who signed up in advance, so I can post them at midnight. This lets people get right to work without me having to be awake to assign tributes.
I'm not sure if I can make it!
Feel free to participate at your leisure! If this is a popular event, or if there is more need for it in the future, there is a good chance that it will be hosted again!
Please reply to this thread with your username to sign up in advance! If you have any questions, feel free to post them in a reply as well.Signups
