The Gamemaker Games - Finders, Keepers (5 spots left)

Rules

Rules:

- The entries shall be scored out of 12 points. The main critics shall be creativity, entertainment value and how well the task was fulfilled. Each of these three categories shall be worth 4 points.

- There shall be bonus points for first entry, best entry, best quote and best arena in each round.

- One kill (as in: if you're killed by another contestant) means -1 point for the killed contestant.

- The contestants with the lowest scores shall be put up for votes after each task.

- Voting shall be opened right after the scores were posted and shall stay open for 24 hours.

- Unless marked as "Secret Voting", all votes shall be posted in the comments.

- "Secret Voting" means that you shall send me a PM with the names of the contestants you would like to vote for.

- You are not allowed to vote for more than the specified number of contestants and your votes should be based on how good the writing is, not on how much you like the author ;)

- You shall be allowed to vote for yourself.

- Based on their entries for the first task, 10 contestants shall be sponsored. 3 by President Adelaïde, 3 by Olympia Darnielle and 4 by the citizens of Panem.

- The perks for the sponsored contestants shall be specified in the tasks.

- Not handing in a task shall result in getting a 0 and being put up for votes immediately.

- Failure to hand in 2 tasks (in total!) shall result in the contestant being eliminated immediately. An exception can be made, when you have a proper reason.

- In each task you shall have to kill a certain amount of contestants. Try not to kill more than the assigned number; additionally killed contestants will not lose a point anyways.

- A list with contestants killed in the entry MUST be sent to me with the task. If there is no list, the deaths shall not be counted.

- At some point, you might have to hand in so-called "ballot deaths". They are secret deaths, meaning that you don't mention that contestant being killed in your entry. You just add their name to the death list. Great possibility to backstab your allies by the way... :D

- Together with your list of killed contestants, you shall also add a random number between 1 and 3. This number stands for an unknown twist in the next task. The twist might be good or bad.

- All entries shall be sent to me by email. The address shall be lisagames@gmx.net

- Date and time shall be given in GMT.

- Announcements shall be made on my profile. If you want to stay up to date, I suggest that you follow me.

- Contestant reservations shall last for 48 hours.

- You shall be allowed to create 2 contestants. They have to be of different gender though!

- You shall always have 7 days to fulfil the task.

If you read all of this blab up there, you shall put "Finders, Keepers" into the "Other" section on your contestant form ;)
