@Cash67 @Wierdo @The Honorable One and @ΨιτιsτηεΒέsτ

I know @Dragonheir and I are ready to do some stuff, any of y’all have characters who could fight? 

[Through the Living Heir he/him]

Where are these mud octopi from anyway? Are they hemlurgic? Trained mistwraiths? Random creatures from second of the sun or something? Genetically modified? From the actual hunger games which I should get around to reading? (I have it on hold from the library)

That’s a whole lot of guesses. I probably don’t need all of them, but it’s fine. 
While I’m posting to the chat thread, I’ll list some character ideas that I wish I’d come up with earlier. (Tondon is great, but he’s not really the type to win this) 

A koloss

a singer (maybe in stormform)

A kandra 

a first of the sun trapper 

Sadly, I don’t think many of those would be eligible for the next couple hunger games.

Eddie is the only one running the casino, right? Cause Tondon is trying to get in, but @Edema Rue hasn’t posted since I asked. (Something about packing… I think it could be a while. Who else should I ping?)

Yeah, so sorry guys. I’m at FSY this whole week, so I won’t be able to get on like…at all. Casino things will progress really slowly, but other GM’s should be able to do anything else you need.

@LightRinger

I’d tried to quote you about the lurcher shield thing, but it didn’t work. 
I think Lurchers are much more interesting than Coinshots, and I’ve wanted to roleplay one for a while. The really impressive mistborn fight scenes rely on iron more than steel, in my opinion, because people are already capable of sending things away from them, but cannot easily pull them back. There’s a scene where Kelsier repeatedly pulls a metal ingot towards him then steps aside, letting it shoot past him. Tondon is really good at doing that, and can also pull on different parts of objects, spinning them in the air, or even hooking something like the sickle he requested onto an object, then using it as a ropeless grappling hook. A claw like object could even be created to lock closed when pulled on, letting him pull himself somewhere or even add a difficult to remove metal object to somebody else. 
Honestly, I should just go start “Lurchers are better than Coinshots, change my mind” thread.

Hey guys, sorry about being AFK for the weekend, unexpected camping trip. @Edema Rue and @Dragonheir, could y’all explain what I missed and am needed for real quick so I can retroactively RP through it?

[Through the Living Questio he/him]

I wasn’t on much either because I had a Gaming Convention, can we just agree that Connor is still alive, for the most part?

Yeah! Basically, the arena has changed again. Now it’s all snowy and cold. Jaksyn no longer feels weakened. He’s standing outside the casino, last I checked.

For the most part, yes.

Tondon fought someone (unintellegus, or however you spell it), but he ran away. Now he’s talking to Astra, who’s played by lotus blossom. She wants to “set us free”. You should have the reward from Corin for killing someone. I’d advise going into the casino and collecting that. Metal is back in stock! You could have been there during the fight.

Is there any doors open for the casino?

That’s amazing. Gimme 70 seconds.

Alright I really don't think I can effectivley play Hellik with the time I have, so can we let him fade from existence?

He can die if you want.

Do y’all know around when the current game will end?

We don’t, my guess is end of July, but that’s a very rough estimate. I can let you know when it ends, if you’d like?

 @Edema Rue and other senior GMs (that’s @Experience and @Ancient Elantrian, if I’m not mistaken) can I apply for the GM waiting list? 

Qualifications: 

• I’ve been a DM for D&D for several years. My most recent campaign ended in a TPK, but my players still said they were excited for next year’s game. I think that fits the hunger game objective; kill everyone but also let them have fun. 
• I’ve read almost all Brandon Sanderson books. The Alcatraz games have already occurred, so I’d be knowledgeable of the canon. 
• I can pretty regularly post, although my schedule will be a little spotty over the summer. I think the waiting list is long enough that I wouldn’t reach the front next game, though.

Potential issues: 

• I haven’t actually read the Hunger Games (I have the first book on hold though, so that will change) 
• I’m pretty new to the shard. Not sure how that would cause problems, but you might want me to build up a little more reputation and experience before GMing.

I’m okay with that, though I’m not the one who has the list or does most of that…I think our other GM’s fell off the map though
