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.

D'oh!

Hmm...in regards to voting....it's not necessarily imperative that you vote someone out because they received the lesser score. If this is anything like Survivor where we eventually stand alone in a fight, then it should be the opposite, where we vote for the strongest, because they will keep taking the immunity.

Then there's the idea that maybe the one who received the lesser score just didn't like the theme and performed under-par because of it. It shouldn't be mutiny over the guys with the lowest scores Of course, teams wanna win, so maybe later on

Well done Ryann, I thought your story was wickedd!

So does this mean I'm out because I didn't submit anything, or am I still in, cause... if it's allowed, I'll say, but if not... Oh woe.. D:

For the record, my excuse is that I've been writing my Personal Statement and numerous English Literature and Biology reports for weeks and weeks. Excuses, excuses.

School over AG...I'd say that's a fair excuse.

Since you actually responded, yeah sure, but you have to be on team 2, since they started down a player. Which makes you the decisive vote between slayguy and zaork!

Slayguy's story: Page 13, score of: 6.5

Zaork's story:
Page 24, score of: 7.3

If I were on Team 2, I would want to keep Zaork, because he's a fantastic poet. No offense to slayguy, I just know Zaork's skills more and he's good.

We'll miss you! Sorry you can't come over to the team clubhouse for meetings anymore. Pizza's on Alt!

In all seriousness, we should do more team things. I hardly know who's on my team, let alone what it means.
