How much have you been paying attention? It's time to find out!
When you're ready to begin, contact a mod to start your time. You will be given a puzzle to solve, and images of every player in the game.
The puzzle will consist of facts that will correspond to one or two of the eliminated players. The facts are arranged in a pyramid. On the edges, one player will apply, and in the middle, two players will apply. You will need to put the pictures of the corresponding eliminated players in the right spots so that the facts will apply. Be careful, as there can be more than two answers that fit, but there should be only correct solution to the full puzzle, we think. If you come up with a solution that isn't our solution but is valid, we will accept it.
[[You will use each player in the game once, and one player twice. You may reuse whichever player you like to complete the puzzle (we think there's a correct answer, but again, there might be another solution).
The puzzle is in a Google Drawing. You will be able to drag around the pictures of the players in the game and place them in the right spots. But we won't supply an extra picture for the repeated player, you have to figure out who that is!]] THIS SECTION MAY NEED TO BE EDITED DEPENDING ON HOW THE DESIGN OF THIS IS DONE.
When you finish, post a screenshot in your confessional to lock in your time.
Whomever finishes with all correct in the fastest time will win immunity. If no one gets them all correct, then whoever gets the most right will win. Ties will be broken by fastest time.

Note for reviewer: This challenge cannot be completed until the game actually starts, but here is the example of how this challenge was run before: survivor-dr.freeforums.net/thread/1901/challenge-17-pyramid-hopeThere are things that won't apply and likely we will need to be editing a lot of this on the fly since the number of players differs from KSS...this one is honestly probably not worth reviewing except maybe providing thoughts on the concept itself. |

This will need to be playtested significantly. These types of challenges have loopholes and it's important to double and triple check. Always write very explicit clues.
Google Drawings A+
Tip - don't copy the drawing for individual entries until you have the full final version.

Here at the Capitol, we don't just care about the victors of each hunger games. We always pay respects to each tribute. While the games happen, we are sure to sound a cannon for each fallen tribute. However, this year in the most special of Hunger Games, The Quarter Quell, we wanted to do something to immortalize our former victors. We believe that a good recollection of their great achievements will be a fitting way to send them off. As we fire the cannons, be sure to pay respects to those tributes who have fallen. They not only have represented their districts with honor and sacrifice, but also with their demeanor. Without them, we would not have victors. Without them, no one could win. They all came with the hope of being the victor. Without them the world is a little less bright, but in their place, the shining beacons of hope, our victors are revealed. In our victors, we find hope. Let us honor the fallen and remember what their sacrifice means. You have eliminated 20 other Tributes to get to this final challenge. Just how well do you remember the fallen? You will utilize teamwork and thinking on your feet to pay them your respects. Rules
1. Contact a moderator when your District is ready to begin. You will be given a link to a Google drawing in a thread in your District forum. 2. The puzzle will consist of facts corresponding to the eliminated players. These facts are organized into a pyramid. On the edges of the pyramid, the facts will apply to one player. In the middle of the pyramid, the facts will apply to two players. 3. Facts may apply to more players than there is space for. However, the full puzzle has limited valid solutions. (We are aware of 1 full solution that is correct, but will accept any valid answers.) 4. In the left margin you will find the pictures of all Fallen Tributes. You will place them in the correct spots in the puzzle.
5. When you are ready to submit your final answer, one of you will post a screenshot of your solution into your District forum. Again, this single screenshot is final. The screenshot does not need to contain a tab open to this game. 6. The winning District will have the most correct answers. If there is a tie, quickest completion time will win. 7. Feel free to use resources inside and outside of the google drawing program, both prior to and during the challenge. Do not directly alter the statements or arrows. (Slight accidental movement of arrows or statements shouldn't be a problem.) 8. You are welcome to strategize and communicate with your District partner prior to and during the challenge. 9. Regarding anonymity: let's say Effie made a Google drawing document, and shared the link with Seneca and Caesar. All 3 of them are viewing it while signed into Google accounts. Seneca and Caesar would see Effie's Google account be identified, and otherwise everyone would show up to everyone else as various anonymous animals. We do urge that you try to avoid including identifying information about yourself in your screenshotted solution: the important elements to include are shown in the example in the spoiler tag below. 10. Similar to Challenge #4 - A Lasting Impression, this challenge will take as long as you feel is necessary within the set deadline.
Below is an example of the formatting of the Google drawing you will receive: Below is the solution to the example drawing given above: We would like to thank our reviewer Katniss. We also wholeheartedly thank Coco Pommel, Peeta Mellark, River Song, Tapu Lele, Tracer and Shadow for taking the time to play test this challenge.
You will have until Saturday, 1 PM PDT to finish the challenge. Tributes, for the last time, may the odds be ever in your favor.

District 12's submission:
 - Neither "Received votes in at least 3 rounds" nor "Their average error in Welcome to Panem was higher than the average average error" are applicable statements to Pikachu. Pikachu received 1 vote in Eliminator Vote #1 and received 2 votes in Eliminator Vote #2. Pikachu was nominated by the immune pair in Eliminator Vote #3 and thus ineligible to receive votes. Pikachu was then eliminated from the game. Pikachu's average error in Welcome to Panem was 3.99, while the average average error was 5.5025. Shadow was the valid answer for this spot in the puzzle.
- "Voted into the Eliminator non-unanimously" is not an applicable statement for Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice was voted into the Eliminator once in Eliminator Vote #4. Eliminator Vote #4 was considered a unanimous vote because every District voted for District 9 besides District 9. Montreal Impact and Shadow were valid answers for this spot in the puzzle.
- "Their District created Seneca's 'favorite' artwork in A Lasting Impression" is not an applicable statement for Zod. Regarding District 6's drawing, Seneca stated "Honestly this is my favorite drawing, but we're not judging Seneca preferences. Nice work though." District 3's drawing was described as worthy of them being conferred immunity. "Their drawing, while without the smoothness of technique we would expect from a Capitol-born artist, hit on all the major elements of the drawing. I judge this to be the most accurate reproduction." Donald and Pikachu were valid answers for this spot in the puzzle.
- All other submitted answers have been deemed valid, earning 17/20 points for District 12.

District 7's submission This is the one solution we believe was fully valid, earning 20/20 points for District 7. In our final round of playtesting, this is the solution Shadow got to in about an hour and fifteen minutes.
