MOD POST

A couple mod things!

CREDITS/ACTIVITY

We discussed your guys ideas/feedback, and this is what we are thinking in regards to credits:

Credits will, for now, be based solely on activity and interactions. We're entirely removing the nomination/voting aspect of things. If we stumble upon a brilliant idea later to involve it, we will take it on. You don't need to post/discuss it with mods anymore if you need an item for tribute to mentor (but if you want to bounce off ideas you are always welcome) We will start keeping up a list of general things available to mentors to send and their prices.

If people do start posting their tributes getting 3 course meals in the last week of the games after not having done anything spectacular, we'll revist this, but everyone seems to be pretty level headed about these things.

This is beautiful way to keep track of things. though no where near required.

SO! What can credits actually DO for you, if not get your delicious things sent?

You can now do two things with credits:

The Katniss option! Not die! Sort of. Mods may randomly decided to try to kill you. BUT you can buy your way out of these deaths. The sum will NOT be cheap, but we will make sure to work with you so that it doesn't screw up anything backdated.

You can not buy your way out of a death roll death HOWEVER!

The Peeta option! You can die for someone else! You can volunteer to get yourself killed instead of someone else if you have enough credits and they have been rolled for! So, for example, if everyone wanted to rush to save Lottie, they could volunteer to take her place when she gets rolled Except this goes into account next round so sorry Lottie.

That way earned credits by being active can actually effect game play and give you a little control...but not too much. So earn those credits!

WEEKLY POSTS/PPP

So we have been adding some more information into the weekly posts, and will be trying to add more. What kinds of information would you guys like to see in those posts?

Also, what would you guys like to do in the way of player plot posts? We would like to encourage people to do them weekly in the death roll posts, but if that doesn't seem good we have other options. We can do a bigger one monthly, or per round, or we could do both a bigger one and use the weekly posts for smaller plotting.
