ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Your NAME is what you would like to be called. It DOES NOT have to be your CBer name.

Your WEAPON of choice is the SINGLE weapon you would like, no more and no less. It can be ANYTHING that can be used PHYSICALLY (ie. katana, heavy book, fishing rod).

Your NUMBER can be ANY number, including decimals, irrational numbers, imaginary numbers, integers, and fractions. 

CAUTION or CURIOSITY measures your IMPULSIVENESS. If you are CAUTIOUS, you are a planner, and you have patience. If you are CURIOUS, you are flexible, and you are quick to react. REMEMBER, neither of these is a bad thing.

COMPETITION or COMPASSION measures your DETERMINATION. If you are COMPETITIVE, you want to win, and you are not afraid to conflict with others. If you are COMPASSIONATE, you want to have fun, and you will avoid conflict at all costs. REMEMBER, neither of these is a bad thing.

ANYTHING else includes anything you would like to tell the organizers.

This competition is inspired off of St. Owl's original competition maze thing (I'm sorry I forgot what it was called). This means that it will be much like a Ski Lodge or Solo Write, except it is much more interactive. YOU, the people who are participating in this, will have control of this, and you will have choices to make. LUCK and RANDOMNESS are a big factor in this. The roll of the dice, the flip of a coin, it will determine your FATE.

Yes, yes, yes! I'm absolutely participating!

NAME: Eloise (not my real name, but one I adore)

WEAPON of choice: Bow and arrows (recurve bow, to be specific, since I'm not strong enough for a full-on longbow)

A NUMBER, any number: 0 (simple enough to avoid gnarly numbers like .047619 repeating [1/21, for anyone curious], but can be tricky if you're trying to, say, divide by it)

CAUTION or CURIOSITY: Caution

COMPETITION or COMPASSION: Compassion

ANYTHING else: I may not always remember to comment in time (I'll try my best!), but I will always be reading along, even if you don't see me. *wraps self in camouflage cloak and fades away silently*

Yeah boiiiiiiii! Sign me up!!! 

NAME: You can call me Sammy, Sam, Samantha, Supreme Ruler of ChickFilA, Anytime, Protecter of the Idiots, Empress of Everlasting Kingdom, Wanted In All 53 States of America, Ink Sans Wannabe, Pizza Enthusiast etc. Whatever you call me, my fake last name is Everlast.

WEAPON of choice:  Twin diamond swords, one for each hand. 

A NUMBER, any number: ...Does the infinity sign count? If not, second choice is 56... 

CAUTION or CURIOSITY: I have a sort of an emotion disorder in real life (The doctor said a super long name for it that I can't remember, but I change moods a lot. It makes it pretty hard to answer these questions xD),  sooooo I don't know. Mostly caution with a bit of curiosity sometimes?

COMPETITION or COMPASSION: Mostly compassion with a quite bit of competition? I don't know...

ANYTHING else: YOU'RE A BEAUTIFUL PERSON AND I JUST FELL DOWN THE STAIRS :D

NAME: Rin

WEAPON of choice: A big ol' wood staff! Is it magic? Who knows, but it sure is good for bonking people!

A NUMBER, any number: 13

CAUTION or CURIOSITY: A mix, I'm a planner but flexible and quick to react

COMPETITION or COMPASSION: Again, a mix. Competitive, but mostly trying to avoid conflict, and definitely not in a do-anything-to-win way, I still want people to have fun.

ANYTHING else: nahh

NAME: Lark, to get ready for a possible name change.

WEAPON of choice: Let's say. . . a large, heavy book with silver throwing daggers hidden in the cover. And, because that must be very unwealdy to carry in a Hunger Games tournament, it has a strap so that I can wear it like a purse.

A NUMBER, any number: 2

CAUTION or CURIOSITY: Caution, probably.

COMPETITION or COMPASSION: I would love to say compassion, I really would. I am morally compelled to say compassion. But who knows what will happen in the heat of battle. . .

ANYTHING else: Not off the top of my head. I'll tell you if I think of something.

Oh, and if you decide that my heavy book with daggars in the cover counts as two weapons, you can change it to a lightweight book that will hurt no one unless it it thrown at the speed of light which is not something I have the power to do. But I need something to read.
