Hey everyone!
I updated, like I promised. So anyway, this chapter will be covering how exactly an author, or a non-author may sponsor a tribute. Already, points have secretly been adding up. Now, if you go to my profile, you will see a list of the authors and how many points they possess. Some of you may be surprised how many points you have or people like solacing may have. Well, signed reviews count for one point each chapter, and followers got two points each, and favorites got an extra point. So, looks like some of you were being smart and being one step ahead of the game! In the future (3 chapters or so) I'll be doing another check on follow-favorites, so it's not too late!
Anyway, this is how sponsoring will work basically. A gift can be worth 1-26 points, with examples below to how much a gift is worth. The categories are as followed: Weapons, Food, Water, General Supplies, Medicine, Clothes, and Other (Mystery). Explained here, along with the examples mentioned above:
WEAPONS - As the name suggests, from tridents to bows, this category will get the tribute what it needs to survive.
(1 - scrap of metal, heavy stick, 6 - shield/flat piece of metal, 15 - okay-quality bow, 24-26 - finnick's trident/cato's body armor)
FOOD - Obvious. From crackers to eight course meals, this sustenance may just keep your tribute alive.
(1 - a pack of 3-4 crackers, 7 - a loaf of bread from your district, 18 - a extra-large container of crackers & beef, 23 - Katniss & Peeta's basket)
WATER - H2O
(1 - 200 ml of water that may or may not be poisoned, 10 - full waterbottle, 15 - two gallon container of purified water, 24 - recurring supply of water, gallon a day)
GENERAL SUPPLIES - From a tent to a bottle of iodine, this is where you get miscellaneous items.
(1 - a curved rock, 6 - an umbrella, 18 - a sleeping bag, 24 - tent)
MEDICINE - Could save his/her life.
(1 - bandage, 8 - cough syrup, 18 - generic brand anti-infection drugs, 24-25 - guaranteed life-saving drug)
CLOTHES - Pretty explanatory.
OTHER - You'll just have to see!
So these are basic guidelines. You will not be able to request what exactly you want, but you can give me ideas. So, you will leave a review or PM if you want to use your points. If you are a non-submitter, and you answered a point-question right, please identify which tribute you want to gift your points too. If you do not, the points will disappear.
Speaking of questions, here's your chance to earn some points. You may choose one to answer, and the first one to get each question right gets three points! Again, if you are a non-submitter, please leave in your review which tribute you want it to be gifted towards.
QUESTION 1 - What was Peeta eating (out of a cup) when Katniss came into the train dining car on the first day?
QUESTION 2 - Apx. how many thousand people live in district 12 before the rebellion?
QUESTION 3 - What do I hate the most? Bees, Spiders or Chickens? (just guess, haha)
QUESTION 4 - What is the mutt representing Rue's collar made out of?
QUESTION 5 - Who is the first to die (that we know of) in the 74th hunger games?
So go ahead and answer! Make sure to review this chapter.
