I'm excited to see how people react to the arena! It was really fun to design, I think you guys will like it. Best of luck to all of you! :lol:

I have a phobia of failure and it took the time between Games for me to realize that actively participating in the Games causes me a rather ridiculous amount of stress and anxiety. Competitive games really aren't good for me because it clearly sets out what is considered a failure and a loss, and since I'm literally unable to deal with failure in a productive/rational manner because of my phobia of failure, it means that my mental health and general well-being took a direct hit. In between games, I moved towards things that aren't games-based, and when the games started up again and I considered joining, I could literally feel the stress return. Part of the reason why I would always come up with such elaborate strategies and try to think of every angle is because I am literally unable to deal with failure of any sort. I realized that competing in the games really wasn't a good idea for me, so I decided to switch to helping to design arenas instead. Designing is fun and doesn't present me with the possibility of success or failure, so that's probably what I'll be doing for the foreseeable future. :t-sweat:

tl;dr: Don't put somebody with a phobia of failure in a competitive environment because bad things will happen. :derp:
(And when I say phobia, I mean phobia. I can barely ask people questions or for favors irl if there's the possibility, no matter how remote, that their answer will be a no. It's easier online because I can read over what I'm going to say a million times.)

I'm working on the sponsor reactions now, and then I'll PM the contents of the gambler's package, backpack and first aid kit to those who received them. I'll also send out what's on the piece of paper in a while. It might take me a bit to get things in order. This is usually the most hectic task.

If we hunt down and kill tributes is there a chance some of the tributes who are not played by actual people will have weapons such as the bow and sword?
