The Writer Games | Once In A Lifetime & World Edition

We Have Our Champion!

Once In A Lifetime: We Have Our Champion!

Thank you all for these  Games; they have probably been the best I have been granted the honour  to host, and I have witnessed some brilliant entries. I could not think  of a better way to retire, so, thank you all.

I am sure you are all dying to hear the results, so... We will begin by announcing the special awards.

Best Name: I have to  admit, I've had a surprisingly difficult time choosing the winner of  this award, as I was given rather... original names. However, this award  goes to the tribute who my autocorrect has re-named Felt tack  Scwartzeneger. - Felticka Scwartenzier (IAmWarningYou)

Note: Honourable mention goes to Jerphydius Sylverstar (DarkLightning)

Best Quote: There have  been many "best quote" awards for each task (most of which went to  Croc), but this quote easily summarized the character and his mood, as  well as being filled with audacity and making me chuckle every time I  read it. "Hello, my name is Custer Mudd; have a nice day!" - Custer Mudd  (CrocodileRocker)

Best Feud: This award  probably isn't much of a surprise, as there was only one major feud  throughout these Games, but I still felt like it deserved recognition  for one author making their two tributes hate each other so much.  Congrats to the "Capitol pansy" and the "scary old woman" - Azure  Featherlin and Mercy "MeMe" Lakeside (katniss-everdeen)

Best Alliance: This  award goes to Once In A Lifetime's dynamic duo (or maybe psychotic duo  is a better term) who managed to create an easy flowing and humorous  alliance reminiscent to the Mad Hatter and the March Hare.  Congratulations to the only people I know who are capable of making  sense appear in such nonsense - Felticka Scwartenzier (IAmWarningYou)  and Custer Mudd (CrocodileRocker)

Best District: The  tributes from this district have really done everything they possibly  could to honour their dead interview, so congratulations to our two  Capitol tributes! - Violet Montgomery (ScrapbookLove) and Azure  Featherlin (katniss-everdeen)

Funniest Character: This  award goes to the genius who decided to volunteer for a fight to the  death in order to get away from housework. The tribute (who may or may  not have gone completely insane) definitely deserves this award, and  continues a long tradition of this author winning funniest tribute  (there, I said it, no need to remind us, we all know) - Custer Mudd  (CrocodileRocker)

Best Character: There  have been so many brilliant characters that this award is extremely  difficult to hand out. I am a big fan of both Azure and MeMe, but I just  love the odd girl from Four fighting to get back to her love (despite  that some people could argue she is reminiscent of Annie Cresta) -  Minnie Amentia

And now, the moment you have all been waiting for, the announcement of the victor!

Before we start, I would  like to say that you have all been brilliant. There have been no  losers, just the victor, and the people who aren't the victor (and are  therefore dead).

Third Place (joint):

Azure Featherlin - katniss-everdeen

Armed with nothing but  friends and determination, the sweet and loveable Azure found himself  floating through the game he volunteered for, unsuspecting of the harm  it causes. All the boy has wanted was to make his mother proud, and -  despite falling just a little short - I am sure he has done so.

and

Liz Short - KingOfLimbs

Liz started the Games  strong, and stayed that way throughout it. Her one goal has been to get  home to one of the things she cares about most in the universe (possibly  more than her own life); her parents. One of the biggest competitors  from the very beginning (and one of the tributes I sponsored), Liz finds  herself in a very credible third place.

Second Place:

Custer Mudd - CrocodileRocker

Custer started off  behind in these Games (what can I say, not handing in does that to you)  but survived round after round of voting, quickly establishing himself  as a massive competitor. In the end, the boy did not manage to escape  the fate he volunteered for, but at least he proved he wasn't a complete  fool. With constant improvement and humour, Custer finds himself in a  well-deserved second place.

First Place:

Mercy "MeMe" Lakeside - katniss-everdeen

The oldest tribute in  these Games (written by the author who usually writes twelve year-olds,  go figure), has managed to do just what she planned to; show the world  how a real victor wins. Despite brief uncertainty, Mercy (who is  definitely not merciful) never kept her eyes off the prize, leading her  to a second victory! It is my pleasure to announce that the winner of  The Writer Games: Once In A Lifetime is MeMe Lakeside! (And only partly  because I sponsored her)

Note: For those of you who are wondering, the tie for first place was broken by a vote between the two Gamemakers.
