| The Galaxy Cauldron Role-Playing Proudly Presents another Game Event! THE HUNGER GAMES Those of you who played (or watched) Clue might have some sense of what's in store, but be assured that while the RolePlaying and die-rolling aspects might be the same, you're in a whole new world with Hunger Games! To keep with the themes of the Hunger Games, there are many new and exciting (but possibly a little complicated - first time kinks to be worked out, just like with Clue!) changes made to the gameplay, including another option for those who want to play, but don't want to be in the thick of the action! I (and possibly my new assistant, if she be accepted during or before the game!) will act as Game Makers, and will be watching over everything related to the arena - giving out field-found items, watching hunger, thirst, warmth, and energy levels, tracking movements within the field, figuring battle winners, and sending in new 'challenges' for the tributes to face. I/we will also be controlling what is seen on the game board*. Then we have the people who want to play and contribute, but don't particularly want to be a tribute. These people will be Champions and Sponsors - they can RP freely on the game board, cheering on their favorite tribute and raising money (winning other sponsors over) to help their tribute's cause. These people can send antidotes, medicie, food, and maybe even armor and weaponry to the tributes in the field. Tribute players can play as their own champions; I'd love it though if my sponsors were actually really choosy as to whom they lend their support. And, finally, we have our tributes. Young men and women chosen from their districts to fight to the death to win the coveted title of Champion. These RPers will mostly be playing off site**, in secret boards that are typically used in our Mafia games. These boards will be geared to certain sections of the map; no one knows where you are unless they run into your zone. (("But, Sailor Uranus! This is a Galaxy Cauldron RP, right? Why are we playing off-site?" Well, dear, sweet player, I think it's horribly unfair for a lone tribute to be so easily hunted down by a small alliance because their position on the map is known, so I'm letting them hide. I'm letting everyone hide from each other. It'll be luck that they chance to find each other, and then they can fight to the death for our amusement.)) Of course, all exciting bits (fighting, snarking, making alliances, breaking alliances, smart moves, looking into the camera, etc.) will be transferred into the main board - I mean, we have to give our audience, and your potential sponsors, something to watch! The gameplay for tributes will be a little tricky (and maybe a little buggy), so please be aware of that before choosing to be a tribute! Tributes can make alliances, backstab - whatever they want! But, just as in the books only one player will win. **Either off-site boards, or via PM; I'm still working out logistics of both. Via Email has also been suggested (to minimize having our PM boxes accidentally destroy information). If we go the PM box route, any alliances will still use an offsite quick topic board so PM boxes aren't ridiculously full. Any time something exciting develops that the Game Makers think audiences in the Capitol would like to see, the post will either be copied and moved to this board, or the players will be asked to move to the board. ((Example: You're chilling in a tree, minding your own business. You're called to continue your lone little scene in the Game Board; there you find that a small group of people have appeared in your territory. OH THE NOES WHAT WILL HAPPEN?! We'll see in REAL TIME. MWAHAHAHAHAH)) Ahem. Okay, Uranus, I'm game. What do I do? Well, here is where the Rules and General Gameplay list will go. ... I'm still working with day lengths vs. how soon someone can move through zones vs how quickly energy depletes, so this will be updated at a later time. - To Be a Champion/Sponsor wrote:
- Reply in this thread with a sponsor OR champion (or both) claim. If you want to be a champion you can claim a district (I'm not sure if we'll have 12 districts yet; it'll be determined by how many people sign up). Being a champion means that you help out the kids in the district by rustling up some sponsor support and choosing what to purchase for them based on what you see of them in the game thread.
- To be a Tribute wrote:
- ((You can be both a tribute and your own champion, but you cannot be a tribute and a sponsor)). Reply with this miniature app; we are NOT using book characters here.

[b]I, (your username), hereby volunteer as tribute![/b] Then I, me, Sailor Uranus, this person (not you), will send YOU a PM closer to the next event date, asking you to choose two talents from an already created list that will be released, again, closer to when the event starts
Oh, one more thing: THIS EVENT WILL START WITH A REAL-TIME MANDATORY CHAT!Did I mention I will also be playing Caesar Flickerman? Well, hah ha, yes, I will be. And before we send our tributes into the Arena, we need to give our audience and sponsors (You guys have to come, too~) a chance to meet them! I'll be conducting real time interviews with predetermined questions for you to answer the RL night before the game begins! Come looking spiffy and prepared to be charming! Or ruthless. Or adorable. or terrifying. Whatever you think sponsors will like the most. ^.~ Signups will end when either a.) we get 24 players. o.o woah baby. b.) Friday Afternoon rolls around The game'll probably start Friday Night with that interview, and the tributes will be put into the arena Saturday morning. c.) This game should end before the start of the GC Roleplay Event! Tributes: HiddenHeartsVenus AkikoUranus Sailor Jupiter Aurae NaoUranus Cerechan Champions: Thunderdome Natasha Sailor Mars Sponsors: Mercury_Viola_Rhapsody Sailor Mercury Natasha Sailor Mars Verdandi

| Yay! Three Tributes! Thank you guys for joining!
But you don't want to pick on Rhapsody - as a sponsor she could very well determine your fate! XD
o.o I've also decided that sponsors can win awards for betting on the winning tribute. |

Nah, you're not odd. Perhaps you don't enjoy reading stories about kids your age killing each other. If that's odd, I'm concerned for the state of the world. |

| Five tributes! Hooray!
Now, if there is a district you guys prefer to be from, I'll take your suggestions, but I'm not sure how many districts there will actually be for this game.
OH! ANOTHER NOTE: peeps gonna die based on a roll of the die. o.o several people might die the first day at the Cornucopia. Rather than choosing odds and evens, I'll be rolling a die for each person fighting, including any bonuses they get from their talents, and then tell you guys who wins and who dies. ^^ You guys write it out. Probs on TV in the main game board. You know, for amusements. XD
o.o but keeping it pg-13. heh heh. |

| How do we keep murder pg-13? I mean, I know the forum rules says something about feeling comfortable reading what we write to thirteen year olds or something, but what if all the thirteen year olds you know enjoy watching Evil Chuckie? O.o
*I'm slightly kidding.* |

*I'm slightly kidding.* I'd prefer an absense of gore and copious amounts of blood. If I find something a little too over-the-line, I'll just jump in and edit it slightly by deleting words. - Example: CAUTION SQUEEMISH PEOPLE this is an example of 'over the line' to 'that works':
Like "He fell over, holding his intestines in his hands and staring blankly at the kid before him." to "He fell over, holding his stomach and staring blankly at the kid before him"

I don't have a district preference! Chat Time! Chattime will be probably early to mid evening (I'm CST; it'll probs start between 5 and 9) on the night that the sign-ups end. I'll throw a poll up about times for people to vote on; if you can't be there, then we'll just assume your character is the strong, silent type XD |

| Uranus- Gotcha. I was wondering where the line would be drawn. I mean, the movie Hunger Games was pg-13, but holy moly have times changed on what pg-13 seems to mean! |

| o.o and sign-up ending time circumstances are above.
o.o if we get 24 players I may go bananas. XD LMao. o.o but then a lot would probably die the first scene - like half. hmm.... and if things get desperate, i could let players have two characters in this. o_o |
