Yay for literature!

Teams: In this competition we will start with 2 teams of 8. Everyone will write about a subject. I will then judge each entry. When your team loses you vote off 2 people from your team.
Scoring: I judge on a scale from 1 to 10. After all scores are added up, the team with the lower score will lose. I will show all individual scores.
The Literature Games: Once 8 people are left in the competition, you fight 1v1v1v1, in a huge arena. I will give you a basic description of the arena, and then you write about killing all the competitors in the arena. You get to choose 1 weapon to start with. This is called the Literature Games (Yes like the hunger games.) One person will survive, then you fight the winner of the other Games.
The Finale: You fight 1v1 with special powers and again one weapon of choice. Both entries are mutated so that it takes very much to kill. You will have to write about that. You also have to write about training, which is 3 days long. Again you will fight in an arena, which will be given to you.

Note:[b] You will be given this information again when the round comes

[b]Note:
The whole thing is writing. No pictures, and by fighting to the death I mean writing about fighting to the death. By training I mean writing about training, etc.
I know pretty obvious, so don't ask about it.

Note: Each round can only be so long. I will wait for you to finish, but if you take too long you will automatically be eliminated. If you know you will take long, please notify me.

[i]Note: You will be given updates all throughout the competition by me, so please do not close your messenger.

Remember just 16 participants, 8 on each team.

[quote=thepossum]Hmm...I'd like a little bit more info...for instance, how long are these entries to be?[/quote]

I would give that info throughout the competition, before each round starts.

No offence, but I don't wanna be the first voted out, so I'm soooo on your team.

I'll confirm my in-ness. I don't particularly care which team I'm in.

I have a question though. If one team basically ends up short two people after being voted out, wouldn't the other team easily be able to crush the team again after that? It seems that it lends itself to a steamrolling.

Also is the system for voting others out anonymous? I would hate to tread on any toes...

ok let me reword that


when one team loses people the team that won must sit out 2 people. those people are safe. if the team with 2 people sitting out wins again they will sit out 4 people.those 4 people are safe. the 2 people that sat out the first time must play in the next round

Oh yeah. I will put it into an average.

You might want to count me in too. I can't assure I'll be punctual as I'm a very busy person, but I'll try to fulfill myself to the utmost here; I've been wanting to try my hand at writing in english - I mean substantially long pieces...- for quite a time now, it will surely be a good training for that second tongue of mine...
So yes, until I'm thrown away for lateness, tolerate me as part of the crew!
