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.

Me...I've just been procrastinating.(I'm a Pisces, we do that.) It just so happens, however, that I'm busy this week. Hopefully, I'll still be able to get my entry in.

I am going to withdraw myself from the competition. After much deliberation I have realised that it's not within my best interests to continue. I will be busy in the next week. Also, I don't really fancy writing another escape themed story. Good luck to all those left in the competition and apologies for any inconvenience.

To: Zaork,
(In stunned silence and disbelief)...
I, for one will miss you, Zaork. I've enjoyed your writings and I notice you haven't withdrawn from everything...? I completely understand a time crunch, though. Reality trumps virtual every time.

SHOOT, is it too late?

I'd read the whole thread and see what's going on, but man, I really don't want to.

read the terms, blah blah. I like to think of myself as moderately skilled, and this'd be fun.

Gotta admit, I've been positively blocked for this theme. There is the germ of an idea, but it will not sprout.

My idea is in my head...I have a basic plot...now I just have to fill in the meat of the story...

What's annoying about this is going to be the narration switches, without the clear ability to change chapters like in a book. So Ima just put a like of '+++'

But yea, coulda been a nicer...more open...theme...

@Parsat: Goodluck...trap someone in someone's mind?

@Manta: Speenncchhaaaa
