Please Read: Regarding the Bloodbath

Hey guys, so there are a few things you need to know before the Bloodbath starts:

- The Bloodbath is going to start at 10 AM EST, so if you haven't already, you should figure out when that is in your time.

- If you kill a tribute in the Bloodbath, you're welcome to claim their weapon, but I am not going to add this weapon to your inventory during the middle of the fight. This means that you can't start fighting with that new weapon immediately after you claim it, because I won't have it listed in the engine and therefore I won't be able to log your attack with that weapon. The same pretty much goes for all other days as well - it's going to be hectic and I'm going to be doing several things at once already, so I'm not worrying about logging your new weapon immediately. However, I'll update this when I do the anthem for the next Games day, so you'll be able to use it at the start of the next day. I may change this for later Games days, depending on how things slow down.

- Please, please make note of the number of the attack you retrieve your weapon on. I'm keeping track of this in a notebook, and if I see that you've attacked too early with your weapon I'm not going to count the attack at all.

- No matter what, I'm going to pause the Bloodbath and lock the thread every few pages or so in order to catch up and give you guys a bit of a breather. If you guys can, please, please try to slow down a bit.

- It would be nice if you labeled your attacks like so:

Your tribute's name [ID number, like 1f or 4m] attacks some other tribute unarmed or with your weapon once you retrieve it

- I'm going to remind you again: If we finish this Bloodbath and I'm not completely and totally stressed out, I'll give every tribute -10 damage. So it's in your best interest to take your time.

- You will be able to post in the Giant Slide area on Day One once your tribute has fled, though you are not required to post once you've fled the Bloodbath.
