The Writer Games have had a variety of Gamemakers, and of hosts, but these type of Games only happen once every generation. When a Gamemaker passes, no matter the time of day, there is a Games thrown in their honour, a sort of celebration of their lives and past achievements. The tributes are nothing but top-notch, hand-picked masters of their craft, of any age, as a way to honour the Gamemakers.
That is right, Brielle Featherlin has passed. But it is time for her legacy to be passed on, and for her to go out with a bang.
Welcome, tributes, to the newest Writer Games, Once In A Lifetime! These Games are made to honour a Gamemaker, and will have nothing but top-of-the-notch tributes, tributes who are promising and seem like they will be interesting to read about, but mostly tributes by some of the most talented authors Wattpanem has to offer.
Now, as these Games are made to honour a Gamemaker, they will be held in the most professionnal way possible. There will be instant punishments for breaking rules, and a different way of deciding which tributes are up for votes. This is how the voting selection will work.
1. Every tribute will receive a score of one to six on each entry, you can get two points for grammar, two points for writing style, and two points for creativity.
2. Fail to hand in, and you instantly lose all possible points for the task.
3. Every time you are killed, one point will be taken off your overall score.
4. Three extra awards will be awarded each time. Best characterisation, best entry, and best quote.
5. The tributes with the lowest scores are up for votes.
6. The scores are cumulative.
Now for some rules:
-Asking for votes, trying to bribe or guilt people for votes, basically any campaining is punishable by death. We will hunt you down and kill you. I mean your tributes, not you, I wouldn't do that.
-No alliance wars. If this is to happen, each tribute involved will instantly be put up for votes, and tribute from every alliance will be involved.
-There will be word limits. I've gotten 20 PM entries before, and it made me want nothing more than to see that tribute die, so to avoid this, word limits shall be necessary.

You can make three tributes, but only two will be selected.
Please add a brief reaping scene, not more than 1,000 words. This will be used to determine whether or not we want you as a tribute, so make it good.
May the odds be ever in your favour!
