So there's a simulator for Hunger Game scenarios over on BrantSteele.net, and I amused myself by throwing in badly resized images of the 24 younger trolls and setting it to play. I just got this gem on Day 4: So I think I have to resize the pictures so they won't look so silly, and then do a new game or two with them. This thread is here for doing so!
Dawn of the First Day Because I can only put so many images up, I'm only keeping little images for the people involved in fights, and for the daily roll call of the dead. I didn't think to take screenshots of the parts of the day. Ooops. Spoiler: The Bloodbath, aka the start The Bloodbath As the tributes stand on their podiums, the horn sounds. Gamzee Makara runs away from the Cornucopia. Feferi Peixes runs into the cornucopia and hides. Meulin Leijon throws a knife into Sollux Captor's head. Meenah Peixes runs away from the Cornucopia. Mituna Captor grabs a jar of fishing bait while Aranea Serket gets fishing gear. Tavros Nitram runs away from the Cornucopia. Kanaya Maryam runs away from the Cornucopia. Damara Megido, Nepeta Leijon, and Kankri Vantas work together to get as many supplies as possible. Cronus Ampora runs away from the Cornucopia. Equius Zahhak runs away from the Cornucopia.

Terezi Pyrope stays at the cornucopia for resources. Rufioh Nitram runs away from the Cornucopia. Latula Pyrope, Kurloz Makara, and Eridan Ampora get into a fight.

Spoiler: Day 1 Day 1 Cronus Ampora receives medical supplies from an unknown sponsor. Equius Zahhak constructs a shack. Rufioh Nitram overhears Aranea Serket and Eridan Ampora talking in the distance. Nepeta Leijon searches for firewood. Aradia Megido falls into a pit and dies. (Better than canon death, at least?) Kankri Vantas poisons Damara Megido's drink, but mistakes it for his own and dies. (Lol.) Porrim Maryam searches for a water source. Gamzee Makara's trap kills Karkat Vantas. (Terrible rails) Vriska Serket runs away from Mituna Captor. Meulin Leijon sees smoke rising in the distance, but decides not to investigate. (That sounds like some real bullshit. Like she wouldn't want some.) Feferi Peixes and Meenah Peixes hunt for other tributes. (They managed to work together? Incredible.) Tavros Nitram, Kanaya Maryam, and Horuss Zahhak hunt for other tributes. Terezi Pyrope searches for firewood. Spoiler: Day 1: The dead 6 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Sollux Captor District 3 Latula Pyrope District 7 Kurloz Makara District 10 Aradia Megido District 1 Kankri Vantas District 4 Karkat Vantas (Rest in peace, Vantases) Spoiler: Night 1 Night 1 Eridan Ampora and Meenah Peixes talk about the tributes still alive.

Equius Zahhak, Gamzee Makara, Feferi Peixes, and Meulin Leijon sleep in shifts. Rufioh Nitram attempts to climb a tree, but falls to his death. (Good job using those wings, bro.) Horuss Zahhak lets Nepeta Leijon into his shelter. Aranea Serket looks at the night sky. Porrim Maryam receives clean water from an unknown sponsor. Cronus Ampora thinks about winning.
Day 2 Spoiler: The big images version Spoiler: Day 2, Text version Meulin Leijon hunts for other tributes. Eridan Ampora makes a wooden spear. Nepeta Leijon sets an explosive off, killing Damara Megido. Tavros Nitram sets an explosive off, killing Feferi Peixes, Meenah Peixes, and Porrim Maryam. (In a stunning twist, Tavros motherfucking Nitram now has the highest bodycount.) Mituna Captor receives an explosive from an unknown sponsor. Kanaya Maryam attacks Horuss Zahhak, but he manages to escape. Aranea Serket makes a wooden spear. Gamzee Makara picks flowers. (That's... sweet, Gamzee. What are you going to do with those flowers?) Vriska Serket questions her sanity. (????????) Terezi Pyrope practices her archery. Cronus Ampora receives an explosive from an unknown sponsor. Equius Zahhak injures himself. Arena Event The remaining tributes begin to hallucinate. Nepeta Leijon survives. Vriska Serket drowns Aranea Serket, who she thought was a shark trying to eat her. Tavros Nitram survives.

(Common mistake.) Horuss Zahhak survives. Cronus Ampora drowns Meulin Leijon, who he thought was a shark trying to eat him. (You guys sure spend a lot of time hallucinating about landsharks.) Spoiler: Day 2: The Dead 8 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Rufioh Nitram District 2 Damara Megido District 1 Feferi Peixes District 12 Meenah Peixes District 12 Porrim Maryam District 6 Aranea Serket District 8 Mituna Captor District 3 Meulin Leijon District 5 Spoiler: Status update, including dead/alive and # of kills Night 2 Spoiler: Big Images version Spoiler: Night 2 Equius Zahhak thinks about home.

Horuss Zahhak and Gamzee Makara run into each other and decide to truce for the night. Cronus Ampora stays awake all night. Nepeta Leijon cooks her food before putting her fire out. (That sounds fake, but okay.) Terezi Pyrope receives fresh food from an unknown sponsor. Eridan Ampora tries to treat his infection.
DAMARA NO Also, I will concede that falling into a pit and dying is less depressing than being murdered by mind-controlled maybe-boyfriend proxy, but it also makes for a way less awesome backstory. Aradia, if you're going to get dead, maybe do so in a way that's not lame as hell. You're cooler than this. :( ALSO: IN BED
Okay, formatting question. What do you find easier to read? Would it be better for me to put the big images first, and text after, in big clumps each?
I find the text easier to read, personally, but I also just prefer it because your comments are perfect and you can't add those to the images so easily.
Day 3 Spoiler: Day + Night 3, text format. Cronus Ampora, Nepeta Leijon, Tavros Nitram, Equius Zahhak, and Eridan Ampora hunt for other tributes. Gamzee Makara kills Terezi Pyrope with a sickle. (OUCH, man. That was probably Karkat's sickle. Have you been holding onto that this whole time...?) Vriska Serket and Kanaya Maryam hunt for other tributes. Horuss Zahhak thinks about home. 1 cannon shot can be heard in the distance. Terezi Pyrope District 7 Gamzee Makara quietly hums. Equius Zahhak stays awake all night. (Do you hear Gamzee's ominously friendly humming?) Horuss Zahhak attempts to start a fire, but is unsuccessful. Tavros Nitram and Kanaya Maryam tell stories about themselves to each other. Eridan Ampora loses sight of where he is. Vriska Serket attempts to start a fire, but is unsuccessful. Nepeta Leijon cooks her food before putting her fire out. (These guys should have come to you for fire advice) Cronus Ampora thinks about winning. (---In bed, all night.) Spoiler: Day + Night 3, large images format Status/Kill count as of midday: Tavros Motherfucking Nitram is still in the lead. And I do believe he's still hoarding an explosive device!
Day 4 Spoiler: Day + Night 4, text version The Feast The cornucopia is replenished with food, supplies, weapons, and memoirs from the tributes' families. Kanaya Maryam decides not to go to The Feast. Nepeta Leijon decides not to go to The Feast. (Sensible decisions, I promise.) Horuss Zahhak catches Equius Zahhak off guard and kills him. (You idiot, Horuss, you guys are from the same district! If you're going to kill each other, it should be last.) Tavros Nitram decides not to go to The Feast. (See? This was a good call.) Cronus Ampora ambushes Gamzee Makara and kills him. Eridan Ampora accidently steps on a landmine. (I warned you bro. I warned you about Tavros' explosives.) Vriska Serket sobs while gripping a photo of her friends and family. (Mindfang believes in you, Vriska.) Tavros Nitram forces Cronus Ampora to kill Kanaya Maryam or Vriska Serket. He decides to kill Vriska Serket. (Holy shit Tavros, that was brutal. Also, not sure why you would offer Cronus the chance to kill Kanaya when Vriska's right there. Just to make Vriska feel awful for wanting Kanaya to die instead?) Horuss Zahhak attacks Nepeta Leijon, but she manages to escape. 4 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Equius Zahhak District 9 Gamzee Makara District 10 Eridan Ampora District 11 Vriska Serket District 8 Horuss Zahhak lets Kanaya Maryam into his shelter. Cronus Ampora receives clean water from an unknown sponsor. Nepeta Leijon poisons Tavros Nitram's drink, but mistakes it for her own and dies. Status as of midday, Day 4: Tavros and Cronus are now tied for Mass Murderers in this game. Nepeta and Horuss both dabbled in killing, and Kanaya has stayed out of it. Spoiler: Day + Night 4, big images
I got tired of taking screenshots :P Day 5: The day of the sausage fest Cronus Ampora receives medical supplies from an unknown sponsor. Horuss Zahhak receives fresh food from an unknown sponsor. Tavros Nitram repeatedly stabs Kanaya Maryam to death with sais. (Oh my god, Tavros, will your lust for blood never be sated??) Fallen Tributes 5 2 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Nepeta Leijon District 5 Kanaya Maryam District 6 Night 5: Tavros' warmongering ways may bite him in the ass. Tavros Nitram thinks about home. Horuss Zahhak begs for Cronus Ampora to kill him. He refuses, keeping Horuss Zahhak alive. (Tavros is fearsome. Neither of them want to face him alone.) (When two people fight, but one spares the other, it usually means that they're going to be allies the next day!)
Day 6: Wait, what? Horuss Zahhak makes a slingshot. Tavros Nitram and Cronus Ampora work together for the day. (What do you mean, nobody died?) (What do you mean, Tavros and Cronus are working together today?) (Did you guys just get tired of murder the moment the girls were all dead?) (Tavros "Motherfucking" Nitram has the most blood on his hands, but none of the three survivors have gone without killing.) Night 6 Horuss Zahhak tries to sing himself to sleep. Cronus Ampora and Tavros Nitram run into each other and decide to truce for the night. (Because, you know, you didn't truce all day or anything. What are you guys doing, bonding over your shared murders?)
Day 7: Happy 12 Perigee's Eve Tavros Nitram injures himself. (You're so lethal that you hurt yourself before anybody else could hurt you.) Cronus Ampora receives an explosive from an unknown sponsor. (HI CAA WE GET IT) Horuss Zahhak receives a hatchet from an unknown sponsor. Night 7: For once, we all sleep alone. Cronus Ampora is unable to start a fire and sleeps without warmth. (What, Tavros didn't want to cuddle with you again?) Tavros Nitram questions his sanity. Horuss Zahhak receives an explosive from an unknown sponsor.
Day 8: The stalemate is getting stale. Horuss Zahhak receives a hatchet from an unknown sponsor. Cronus Ampora picks flowers. Tavros Nitram injures himself. (Tavros. Tavros...) (You know what would liven up this stalemate?) Arena Event A monstrous hurricane wreaks havoc on the arena. (A MOTHERFUCKING HURRICANE) Tavros Nitram stabs Cronus Ampora, then pushes him close enough to the hurricane to suck him in. (Holy shit, Tavros.) (That's brutal.) (Did you sleep with Cronus just to make him hesitate long enough for you to get a good shot???) Horuss Zahhak is incapacitated by flying debris and dies. 2 cannon shots can be heard in the distance. Cronus Ampora District 11 Horuss Zahhak District 9 Our completely unexpected victor... The winner is Tavros Nitram from District 2!
I'm envisioning CAA bedecked in Capitol-style Cronus trappings. ... it's kind of hideously beautiful.
So yeah, the Page of Breath decided to summon a fucking hurricane on their asses rather than fight these two face to face. Incredible.
