THESE GAMES ARE HAVING A CONTEST! YOU SHOULD REALLY JOIN! You don't need to read- although it'd be great if you did :) But please, take five minutes to go to my profile and VOTE in the super special contest I'm hosting for the tributes of the 40th Hunger Games. Pretty dresses are involved. Really, I promise it'll be fun. Click on my name and VOTE!
Hello there! I'm Zinkyowl, and I've decided to begin another SYOT! I had one that ended in about March tragically deleted, and never completed now I'm back and better than ever before we get started, here are some things you need to know…
-You can expect updates about two or three times a week. I go to boarding school, so time is limited. Unless I'm on break, there will be no late night updates. I know how much you all wait for new chapters to be posted, as I am a SYOT reader myself, so I'll try to get stuff out as soon as possible.
-I may or may not be doing reapings. Most likely not. Either way, there will be a small description written by me for each chapter that you can refer to while reading. If there are reapings then they will be very brief.
-Once you submit a tribute, it's MINE! I'll confer with the submitter if any major changes are to be made, but otherwise I might change small things to make a tribute's story make sense or make them less similar to another. We can't have a thousand Katniss Everdeens in the arena! On that note, when you're filling out the form don't tell me how your tribute will behave/interact in the arena. That's for me to write. You're in charge of their past, while I determine the future.
-Deaths for the most part will be random. I will choose the Bloodbaths and the victor, but other than that I will randomly draw the names, with slight adjustments so the story makes sense.
-If this doesn't work, I might change it, but as of now, if you submit a girl you must also submit a boy, and vice versa. I want to get to the games as quickly as possible, and I know girls are more fun to write. But we need boys too! They do not need to be from the same District.
-Please fill out the form in detail. And not everyone in the world is attractive! That's my biggest pet peeve. Let's have a well balanced game filled with interesting, not just beautiful tributes.
-There will not be a sponsoring system, however I will be posting little contests for the readers to vote in, and winning tributes will receive gifts.
The tribute form is on my profile. No forms will be excepted unless they are the one I have posted and in a PM. Thanks and I can't wait to see some amazing characters.
Our capitol POV will be the head gamemaker, Lucinda Elliot. She has some very exciting games in store, so read on to find out more!
It was all laid out in front of me. I had rushed the architects to get the blue-print done in time, but it wasn't my fault the arena had to be perfect. The Capitol expected a show, and a show they would get.
I've always loved the motto of our great country: Panem et Circenses. Bread and circuses. Food and a show. That's how we live here: Eat all day, party all night. And you know, it's really a shame those poor folks in the districts don't get to experience that. And because the tributes have such an unfortunate fate, it would certainly be nice if I could give them a taste of how delicious and entertaining life can be.
It'd be nice if I could give them show.
