The Hunger Games on Xbox Minecraft

**Mander A1** 14th June 2012, 2:41 pm

Hey guys, been quite a while since I've posted here, but I knew this was the place I needed to come to. I'm looking for some people to help with and participate in the Hunger Games map I'm making on Xbox Minecraft. Now just so you know straight away I'm not some 13 yr old with a shitty map. This is legit. A lot of time has been put into this map, and it's well-thought out and organized. Here's an overview of how things will work:

The arena has already been mostly built and sectioned off. It takes up a little under half the entire minecraft map (remember that you can see other players names from quite a distance). There will be 8 players participating. The doors at the cornicopia all open at the same time, and are activated by a switch inside one of them. There is an inner arena, marked by a ring of netherack in the sky, so that when there are ony three players left, they will be told to enter that area, so they dont have to roam the whole map for each other.

There will be no sponsors. I believe this has ruined many minecraft hunger games, and it would be harder to implement on xbox anyways.

All players are invited to help build the map, and many are already doing so. You will likely be tasked with blocking off caves, building barriers, and building dungeons or points of interest (such as cliffs, archways, hot springs, etc). Dungeons usually consist of a trap or hidden secret and possess a chest. You may not fill the chest with items.

If you are not familiar with the concept, the objective is to survive. To do so you will have to kill other players, and find and loot chests around the map for food, weapons, and various other supplies.

I will find a trustworthy person who will not be participating in the games to go around the map and place chests in random locations and fill them, as well as the chests in the dungeons with loot I will provide. This way none of the players participating will know what any chest holds.

There wil be 6 crafting tables and 6 furnaces located in specific areas around the map.

We will start the map in party chat, but after the games start you are welcome to leave it and create your own parties or chats with other players if you so desire.

I will be recording the whole thing and uploading it to Youtube, as will another player. You are wecome to do so as well if you wish. I may also ask you to do an interview afterwards. Please do not join if you are not comfortable with this, or if you dont have a mic.

Requirements:
-Must have a mic.
-Must be wiling to follow honor rules.
-Must be comfortable with being recorded, and possibly being interviewed.

Preferences (none of these are required):
-That you are mature.
-That you are available often.
-That you are familiar with the Hunger Games series.
-That you are recording.

Please let me know which requirements and preferences you meet to help me choose the best candidates should there be more than four of you.

Rules:
You have one ife, and there can only be one survivor.
Alliances can be formed, but eventually will have to be broken.
You cannot place blocks. (so no, you cant make a crafting table then plonk it down)
You cannot break blocks, except for vegetation (leaves, crops, mushrooms, etc)
You may not enter any dungeon you built for the first half hour of the game.
You can kill mobs.
You can craft.

Dying:
As soon as you die you must send a text message to all players saying "i'm dead" or something of the sorts, so that everyone is aware (equivalent to cannon fire). If you kill somebody and they do not send a message within a reasonable amount of time, notify me with a message.
Once you die you will respawn in the sky next to a bed you previously slept in. There will be a set of golden armor waiting for you. This will help distinguish you from the players who are stil alive, as you will be allowed to wander the map and spectate. You may not pick up any other items though, and you may not enter dungeons as you may set off a trap.
Once there are only three players left it is up to the dead players to light the inner circle of netherrack on fire. You will be provided a flint and steel for this.

Bottom Line:
I have four confirmed participants so far, and 2 maybes. That leaves up to four possible openings. If you are interested in participating and meet the requirements please let me know.
Also, if you are interested in being the person to place and fill chests around the map, let me know, though I will likely only pick someone I've previously met for this task.

ANY OF THIS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE
