Riiight, so you must be thinking, what's up with this crazy girl? She said she won't be updating a lot… So why's she updating the very next day?
Okay, so I admit, I've been very… distracted. I'm dog tired from insane and pointless school activities, exhausted from the stress – we're doing streaming this year – and just too lazy to actually do some work. The 35 unread emails I got when I checked my email this afternoon didn't help either. So I've been reading over your tribute submissions, and they're really good. Like, seriously? I'm impressed with the amount of effort everyone put in! In fact, I'm so happy, almost everyone got accepted! Ahahaha, another motivation to submit more tributes right?
What's that? You didn't submit a tribute? Tsk tsk, shame on you, I insist you scroll down right now and click that lil' review button right down there. That's right! And if you have submitted, well, you'd probably have already read my comments by now. But really, great effort from all of you!
Okay, so back down to business. Last night, about 5 minutes after I logged off, I realized what a stupid idiot I am. I forgot to include the District specialties! How could I have forgotten that right? Well, I blame the lack of sleep messing with my mind… So I'm just going to put it here. Please note that a couple of them are not really confirmed, as they've never been mentioned specifically in the books, so I've made them up to hopefully even out the ability range of the tributes.
District 1 – Luxury items for the Capitol
District 2 – Quarrying, Military Base, and Peacekeepers
District 3 – Manufacturing
District 4 – Fishing
District 5 – Scientific Research and Genetic Modification
District 6 – Medicine
District 7 – Lumber and Paper Processing
District 8 – Textiles
District 9 – Hunting (This is debatable, but since I've already gotten tributes submitted based on hunting, I'll just use this)
District 10 – Livestock and Herding
District 11 – Agriculture
District 12 – Coal Mining
Yeah, so that's the list of the District specialties. So now, I'll just update you guys about the tributes list and the sponser points.
For the tribute list right, its not confirmed. So if you see the spot filled, you can still try out for it, although you'd have a lower chance of getting it. However, I will still read through your submission, and try to place it somewhere else if its really good.
Tribute List
District One: Female – Victory Evans Male –
District Two: Female – Mimi Zaria Male –
District Three: Female – Nightshade Amberly Male –
District 4: Female – Vivie Marine Male –
District 5: Female – Male –
District 6: Female – Male –
District 7: Female – Kalkora Madrone Male –
District 8: Female – Male – Alex Malcolm
District 9: Female – Alura Stefon Male – Zack Tanner
District 10: Female – Male –
District 11: Female – Male –
District 12: Female – Male –
Well, overall, I think its pretty good, considering this fic has been up for just under 24 hours. But seriously guys, I really need Male tributes! I plan to fill up at least half of those slots by the time I start writing, which should be around Sunday, after my debate competition. This means that unless you want me to add in one of my characters to fill it up, you guys really have to start writing male tributes!
Also, I just want to clarify, that I'm perfectly fine if you submit 2 or 3 tributes, but I won't accept any more than 3. So maybe you could submit a male to have some steamy hot romance with your female character? Hahaha, it'll be pretty cool. Except the more romances there are, the less intensity they would be, because really, I'm not going to spend 90% of this fic on fluffy romance, okay?
Mmmhmm, now let's move on to sponsor lists! Regardless of whether your tribute has been accepted or not, you'll be included in this sponsor list anyway. I won't be limiting you to who you can sponsor or what not, so if you don't have a tribute entered, or if your tribute died, you can still play a part in this game by sponsoring your favorite tribute. :D
Another thing, I realized nobody has submitted any Arena ideas. I know they're pretty hard to come up with, but at least try, okay? There's no harm in trying, and I promise not to mock you or laugh at your ideas or whatever. Oh, and there was a typo in the previous chapter. Its 5 points for an incorrect answer for the trivia questions, and 15 points for a correct answer.
Sponsor List
ChrissyGrace – 10 points
lillyday – 10 points
spindleberried – 5 points
BookAddictForLife – 20 points
booksarecool – 15 points
Cloudy-TheNightmareQueen – 10 points
SM1432 – 5 points
Esse Quam Videri – 10 points
Marya Badica – 25 points
Okay, so that's it for the sponsor points. You guys are really awesome, some of you can already afford some food, maybe a weapon or two. Or a small pack. Either way, it works! But remember, don't splurge all your points out at the start of the Games – the stuff gets more expensive as the Game progresses!
One more thing before I log off for the night – Does anyone think I should do a Capitol viewer POV, or should I just stick to the usual tributes POV? Or do you have any other ideas that I could use? Anyone who answers this question will get 5 more sponsor points, so review!
xoxo
