I'm sure you all know that every 25 years there is a Quarter Quell edition of the Hunger Games.[/b][/center] [center]Quells mark the anniversaries of the districts' defeat by the Capitol, and include special celebrations. The Games involves some sort of twist that makes them more disastrous or difficult to compete in, or watch - which, of course, only seems to excite the Capitol more. A small box contains small yellow envelopes containing specific instructions for each Quarter Quell, lying in wait for the next twenty five years where it will be opened again. These instructions were planned at the founding of the Hunger Games, with plans in place for hundreds of Games. The President at the time selects the appropriate card and reads it on live television to announce the theme of that year's Quell.[/center] [center]And this year's twist? This year, the tributes will be reaped from the remaining pool of victors - a relief for some, devastating for others.[/center] [center][i]In the 25th Hunger Games, the citizens of the districts had to vote on who would compete in the Hunger Games as a way of reminding the rebels that they are responsible for the Hunger Games, and it is their fault that their children die in the games every year. This also gave the districts a chance to either get rid of their unwanted or to up their chances of winning the Hunger Games. [/i][/center] [center][i]In the 50th Hunger Games, four tributes were chosen from each district instead of the usual two to remind the rebels that for each Capitol citizen killed, two rebels died. This put twice as many people in the arena and made it twice as brutal.[/i][/center] [center][i]And the 75th? This action was made to destroy any bonds the districts had with each other and to make them feel weak. It was meant to be a reminder to the citizens of the districts that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the Capitol. It is speculated that this twist was not planned but who's going to question the omnipotent Capitol?[/i][/center] [center]So who, exactly, will live to tell the tale?[/center] [center][b]Remember; there can be one victor.[/b][/center]
