Arena Update.

Snow Is Falling
This time it's for real. Friday evening will see the sky turn dark grey, and with the darkness comes the snow. The snowfall is constant and heavy for the next 48 hours straight. Ultimately, once it lets up, the Arena will be covered in three feet of snow in some places, with more accumulation near the mountains and hills. The wildlife has essentially vanished for this period, meaning hunting is out of the question. It's not great for TV, exactly, but these next 48 hours may be the last bit of peace for some of our darling Tributes...

Animals
You didn't think they'd stay away forever, did you? In the pre-dawn hours of Monday, Tributes who've taken shelter in the forests may hear the distinctive and frightening sounds of big cats on the prowl. And we're not talking lions or cheetahs here, folks. We're talking Smilodons. These predators are vicious and they are starving and their preferred prey, the wooly mammoth, is nowhere to be found. They can and will attack Tributes unprovoked. However, there is also a prize for those Tributes willing to challenge the sabertooth cats and win.

You have until 1159pm Eastern time on Monday to sign-up to battle the sabertooth tigers. Those who have signed up will be rolled with the following odds: 25% chance of death (no buy out), 25% chance of injury (can be treated with medical supplies), 50% chance of walking away relatively unharmed! And those of you who leave the fight alive will earn a FREE PARACHUTE OF SUPPLIES! If you successfully face down the Smilodons, the sponsors at home will give you the gift of your choice! You get to choose from the following options:

1 - One week supply of fresh food & water, a fire starting kit with kerosene lantern, deluxe medical supply kit, a fresh change of clothing (includes underwear & socks), and one sleeping bag.
2 - One week supply of fresh food & water, one sleeping bag, and one 16 inch machete.
3 - One lever action .22 magnum rifle with two boxes of bullets.

All options will arrive in a waterproof backpack with the Tribute's name embroidered on it. There will be a thread for sign-ups below.

Just What I Needed
The snow begins to fall again on Thursday, covering up some but not all of the bloodshed from the battles with the Smilodons. Along with the snowfall, each surviving Tribute will receive a parachute note with the following message:

~*~*Tell the folks watching at home what would make you feel all warm & fuzzy inside!  Smile for the camera & show us you love us! If you do, you'll get a treat!*~*~

The note instructs the Tributes to verbally indicate what they would like to receive for Valentine's Day next week. Next week, those specially requested items will be available for purchase as parachute gifts in the Arena, however the Gamemakers reserve the right to modify the presents should any of them be deemed too excessive (for example: requesting a grenade launcher will likely earn the Tribute a GI Joe action figure with a plastic grenade launcher.)

In order to have your gift listed for next week's death roll, you must reply to the appropriate sign-up thread by Wednesday at 1159pm Eastern time.

Sponsorship Program

By our [always accurate and never at all leaked from inside sources] calculations, the above tributes are presently at the most risk of death. If not sponsored by the end of the week, these tributes will meet their untimely and quite possibly brutal end. Any and all interested sponsors, please submit your payment of 200 Credits to our main office by no later than close of business Friday.

Any tributes without sponsors?

Sorry. We tried.

We would like to remind you however, that saving someone from the dark grip of death isn't the only thing our sponsorship program offers. We have other items available. And remember! Get these items while they're hot. You won't see prices this low for the rest of this arena!

And as an additional reminder, you may only spend credits which were earned before January 1st, 2015 (aka LAST activity cycle!) Those characters who were accepted after January 1st have 100 default credits to spend however they like!

* Sponsors, please specify your desired item of purchase and it's intended recipient. Full payment may be covered by multiple parties.
** You may not buy your own character out of death, but you may buy supplies for your own character.
*** You can only use credits earned between August 2014 and 31 December 2015.  Credits earned after that point may not be spent.  You can only spend what you reported during the last Activity Check.

Gamemaker Notes//Out Of Character.

Activity check-in will be posted this upcoming week. You will not need to report your earned credits, so please don't panic.  However you can be on the lookout for that in the next couple of days.

Happy Hunger Games!
