Most esteemed Victor! You are here to compete for a second time in a game for the chance to prove you are the best of the best. By entering yourself into the Quarter Quell, you have already proven you have the heart to compete with the best of the best. It's time for you to claim your title!
You can use this confessional for any reason, whether its to vent or gather your thoughts away from your partner.
In addition, should you face the unfortunate need to enter the Eliminator, you will be requested to occasionally give challenge submissions here. Otherwise, use this as you see fit.
May the odds be ever in your favor!

We here at the Capitol, know it can be a bit...difficult to relate to people right off the bat. It's all such a wild adventure before the real games get started! I've decided to personally spare some of my time in order to help you get started. Chins up, smiles on!
1. How do you feel about your character choice? Do you feel like you can embody the spirit of the victor you've been chosen to portray? Or are you going to just make a whole name for this former winner? 2. Have you had a chance to read the rules? If not, I recommend doing that. If so, what do you think of the Eliminator element to this game? Does this intimidate you or are you excited to prove your skillz? 3. What do you think is the best approach to the first 48 hours? Are you gonna focus more on social bonds or are you going to try super hard in the challenge? What are you specifically hoping for in a partner? Do you want someone who matches you or balances you out? 4. What kinds of challenges are you hoping to see in this competition? Do you think there is a certain type you would be more suited for? Is there a type you are dreading to see? 5. What is the most exciting aspect of this game to you? What are you hoping to get out of this experience? Do you think you have a good shot at winning? What sorts of things do you think you can do to improve your odds to do just that?

1. Pikachuuuuu! 2. Read and reread, not making the same mistake again . I look forward to the eliminator, it allows two people who have just lost their partner another chance to join the game. Both players could relate and I am sure that the first few teams will have a strong bond from it. That being said, I will be trying to make allies with people from other teams, I would love to go all the way with my partner from the start but this game is killed or be killed. 3. Pikachu's are not the best at physical activities because of my small size. I am sure people will want to talk to me only for the fact that I am pikachu and I will make bonds from there. If people don't see me as a threat that I won't be put up for elimination during the mid to late game. 4. I am good at solving puzzles, tbh I would be happy with any challenge. I enjoy the competition but lately my small pikachu brain has not been good at figuring out math problems (> ~ <) 5. I am looking forward to the challenges. If I can make it past the beginning then I think I could go far, I am hoping that I can start off strong and then be able to coast to the late game and pick up speed again. When it comes to the late game having two strong competitors paired together would be huge. Probably going to talk to people normally, maybe meme as pikachu if that is how we bond.

I am only going to follow one player's confessional at a time. I will be VERY invested in this one player. Why should this player be you? Please note that I am a specbot that likes in depth discussion of relationships and strategy.
So why should you get my rose?

My first PM was to Lele and it was about starting a trio with Kirby.
Later I spoke to Kirby and how I interpreted his message is that he does not want me to be working with anyone other than him.
What no one disagreed with was the fact that I don't want to have to read numbers all game. Bye 12!
Those are the only two players I talked strategy to, saying that we should choose to not be on the same team since teams will be split up based on the rules.

I really like talking to that boomer ulysses.
We have just been memeing and I wish you could see it, very fun person.
I have been making pokemon references to several other players, I have spoken to about 8 in total so far.

I almost forgot about Ted Cruz!
We have also been memeing
These are all players that I won't want to be paired with, if it comes to eliminating someone I will have to fight my partner.

I'll be honest its Friday night and I was at a social event so I hope that is not my best score.

Wonderful effort in following the arena rules, Pikachu. To clarify, the following would also be considered a valid screenshot of your first submission. You may merely show the tab is open, and do not need to screenshot the forum itself.

I plan on betraying Kirby and Lele.
Nothing is set in stone but they have not shown that I can trust them.
I believe that they will fight against each other in order to make sure I am a partnership with them.

I do appreciate the input, what makes you think they have shown you this? do you have a Private Message you wish to share with the rest of the Capitol?

You can copy/paste or quote them here. You just cannot quote or screenshot messages to other players.

You could quote the message, copy the BBC code, and then paste it here without sending. Or just c/p the text. Whatever helps you show specs what you are seeing

This conversation made me think that Kirby was just trying to make me distance myself from Lele.

Hello and welcome to the game, after surviving my own hunger games I'm now super excited to watching you guys battle it out to the death.
I'm a bit of a betting man and I wanna place some early bets as to who is gonna win so I'd love to get to know some of you a bit more so here's some starter questions for you:
1) Do you have a starting game plan and if so, what is it? 2) How will you determine your rankings of other players? 3) If you win the game, what will you do with the money 4) If you could partner with any spectator who would it be? P.s there is a right answer 5) Tell me a joke/pun about your character

Well I tried making a strong alliance but that did not work. I am now just bonding withe the handful of people I feel close with. If we are all on separate teams then that would be 4 other teams that I could trust, as long as I can make those strong bonds with people.
I will try to get paired with someone I have not talked with, if I need to get rid of them so be it. I will have to be "close" with who ever I get paired with, if they have other alliances then that would mean that we are even less likely to be sent to elimination.
Pikachu's are not supposed to be up this late so I will have to Thunderbolt you for now. If you don't die I'll keep sending you juicy deets, if you do die I will spend the money as a get out of jail card.

Thinking... if the chart is similar to the distribution of how the players in the game score then I would be towards the middle. That would allow me to potentially be picked up by someone random. While I probably won't be paired with the best scorer of this challenge that won't matter in the long run. But I definitely need to talk to more people.

I am now closest with Uylysses, and while I did not tell him my full plan he brought up the fact that it would be good to start with someone who would be working with you but you could get rid of if you need to. I will probably do that rather than starting with a stranger.
