Panem October: a Hunger Games ARG.

"This alternate-reality game blends fiction with reality by using multiple platforms to tell the story: such as using emails, text messages and phone numbers. As the users progress through the story, they will be introduced to new mediums and ways to experience the game.

Users can expect to be incredibly busy from the beginning of October to the end of March. Every fan should be a part of PanemOctober, and look forward to working together up until the very end.

This game was created by the fans, for the fans."

In Panem October, all fans are a citizen of Panem living in a specific chapter of the book. But instead of being in Katniss' district doing what ever she's doing, you're in your own district doing your own thing. You can communicate with other citizens, write journal entries, and even get to know your mayor.

Happy Hunger Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Here's my introduction.
My (fake) name is Kay.
I'm from District 2.
My skills for the Games... uh... xD I can swim, I'm pretty smart when it comes to the wilderness, and I am stronger than I look (But that doesn't mean I'm strong.) I want to learn archery in the future. I'll add more later. xD
My disadvantages? I'm not strong, I'm not fast, I don't know how to use any weapons.

So, introduce yourself. What District are you in? What skills do you have? (:

ladybugheart • 3 September 2011 at 1:35 AM

@cafe I don't think you really have to do anything. I am, though. 8D

pegasasu • 3 September 2011 at 1:23 PM

Does it spam your mobile? @ladybugheart

ladybugheart • 3 September 2011 at 2:41 PM

@pegasasu I don't think so. I believe it only sends occasional hints. However, I'm not completely sure. I didn't sign up for anything except for emails, and they were pretty good about it. I'll see if I can find somebody who can help. If you choose to receive text messages and such, please let us know. ^^

pegasasu • 3 September 2011 at 3:37 PM

@ladybugheart yeah I didn't choose to receive them. Btw what does it mean by "Extra hints"

ladybugheart • 3 September 2011 at 3:38 PM

@pegasasu Messages from Snow, district specific messages... things to make the story seem more realistic. (:

cafe • 3 September 2011 at 4:15 PM

So. Slow. D:




Help me scan? (;

Every time your ID card is scanned by you, or someone else, the Capitol is informed that you are present and accounted for, and are doing your duty to the Capitol by keeping the authority informed.
