Alphy got banned, Thaid posted an SU about it.

We’re trying to figure out what to do about this, I’m holding off on saying anything for now until we figure out a little bit more. 

Alpha PM'd me, saying they might be permabanned soon, so that makes sense.

It was also part of the reason why I volunteered to be an IM.

I don't know, but this is neither the time nor place for that.

One thing about Cytoverse Hunger Games Bob, his character sheet says he had three years of flight training, which is of course reflected in the document, but I later retconned this in the games proper into one year of flight training, and should probably be changed on the document.

Hello! So we are currently in the in-between phase. The next one will be starting soon-ish, but in the mean time we are doing something called pre-RPs. Basically we can RP with the characters that are going to go into the next hunger games before they start to get some character development and basic plot going. 

The pre-RP isn't mandatory in order to participate in the actual Hunger Games RP, but if you're interested you just need to come up with a character. A character sheet will only be needed once the actual Hunger Games starts.

For this phases Pre-RP there are four different threads, or districts. Some lore for you to help any confusion: There have been multiple hunger games, and in the most recent one (cytoverse) a rebellion overthrew the capitol and the game makers. They formed four districts and named them after four tributes who had died in a previous hunger games. So basically those on top became slaves and those on bottom became masters. I know it's confusing, so if you have more questions about the lore just ask. 

For the next Hunger Games, everyone will be playing a child (aged 8-18) who was from the capitol before but is now basically enslaved/ in forced servitude. So the people that rebelled over the hunger games are now putting their previous oppressor's children into the hunger games. Hopefully that makes sense lol

So if you want to do the pre-RP just choose one of the districts, come up with a character and just hop on :).

How do we make the character sheet? Is there an example I can look at perhaps?

You don't technically need a character sheet for the pre-game RP.

I just would like to know the general idea of how the whole system works.

There’s an pinned introduction thread explaining how it works

They vary a lot between each one but here is the last character sheet: 

Spoiler

Name:

Callsign:

Race (Human, Kitsen, Dione, Heklo, etc.):

Age (12-18):

Gender (or pronouns):

Preferred District:

Alliance (yes or no):

Special Skills or Hidden Talents:

Personality:

Flight Experience (number of years 0-?):

Preferred Ship (Poco, Largo, Scout, Other):

Planet or Cavern of Origin:  

Other:

Most of the first things on the list are universal, but not all of them. But that's generally what they look like.

We don’t know for certain that it isn’t…

[Lord Spirit he/him]

It was implied to be a series, but that could also be wrong…

It said “books,” and there is both the short and extended versions…and many people haven’t read it…

How about an Aether of Night hunger games? People can actually attain a copy of it on the forums, but it does involve a heavy reading price (aon isn't that bad, it's just long at points)

Wait

No

Yes, it’s a short story he wrote in 2011.

No, not yet. There will eventually be some by Issac Stewart and Dan Wells, though.
