I'm finally back after 8 seasons and 2 months of absence. As always, the first tribute listed is the main one, while the second is the reserve.
- Name: Margaret Nearl◊
- Alternate Form: her "Nearl the Radiant Knight" Dreadnaught Guard alternate op form, which isn't counted as separate, but technically one and the same from Nearl as it's just her in another clothing.
- Nickname: Radiant Knight!Nearl
- Flag: Safe, with her biological age probably being around her late 20's - early 30's
- Source: Arknights
- Extra Note: for Wiki purpose, she's listed with her full name since her operator codename, Nearl, is her real surname as well. As a tribute in the All-Stars season, she's there as AK is one of my most favorite source materials and she's a somewhat major character. Plus her feature event happened recently.
- Name: Eren Jaeger◊
- Nickname: Eren
- Flag: Yellow, as he's 15 in the pic
- Source: Attack on Titan
- Extra Note: He's both meant for the All-Stars as AOT is one of my most favorite source materials and to go with TR!Mei.
lmao
Mixed-bag of events, some from BoBoiBoy, some from memes or others. (10):
- (Player1) fires at (Player2) using an auto-aiming bow, but the latter does a dance move to throw off the bow's aim.
- (Player1) says "Danger" is (his/her1) middle name. (Player2) replies "I thought it was Leslie."
- (Player1) burns a chicken coop to make fried chicken. (Also Feast)
- (Player1) burns a chicken coop to make fried chicken. Unfortunately, (he/she1) ends up roasting (himself/herself1) as well. (Fatal variant, also Feast)
- (Player1) crochets a scarf out of noodles. (Also Feast)
- (Player1) tries teaching (Player2) how to use chopsticks but the latter crochets (his/her2) noodles with them instead. (Also Feast)
- (Player1) drags (Player2) and (Player3) out of their fight by pulling them by the ears.
- (Player1) shrinks (Player2) and crushes (him/her2) with an electric spatula. (P1 kills P2)
- (Player1) swats (Player2) and (Player3) with an electric spatula, then temporarily shrinks them down.
(Kudos to Dave for this nonfatal variant) - (Player1) fails to swat a fly. (He/She1) later gets shrunk and crushed by the fly. (Fatal)

Someone
Attention duelists! The 218th Reboot Season of the TVTropes Hunger Games Simulation will commence shortly. But first...
President Snow sits at his computer and desk, facing the camera. "Welcome, fellow Hunger Games partakers, to the Sixth Anniversary of the TVTropes Hunger Games Simulation. It is truly an honor for all of you to be here. Do not mistake otherwise."
He straightens a non-existent tie before continuing, "I'd like to thank you all for coming today. Indeed, you are participating in a great tradition of strength and valor. And yet I have to wonder if you understand what it means that you're here. You may think that you're simply playing a game, but this is no mere simulation. This is real life. This is your reality. This is it, right here. This IS the simulation. The rest of us live in the real world, and we don't even know it."
The President pauses, looking around the room as he takes a deep breath. He exhales slowly and continues, "The past six years of Hunger Games have been both a boon and curse for us. In the last three months alone, over seven hundred million people have died from hunger or starvation. That's almost one-third of our population! If it weren't for the games, half of humanity would be dead already!"
President Snow straightens his non-existent tie again. "This is why I'm here," he says, his voice lowering. "We need to change things. We need to stop pretending that these Hunger Games are some sort of video game, and start acting like they're reality. This is also why you, the forty-eight of you who represent the best that our Districts have to offer... this is also why you are here."
The President stands up and walks around the desk, pausing at each of the cameras monitoring him. "These Hunger Games are going to be different. They will be more deadly than any of us could possibly imagine. Each of you has been chosen by me personally because I believe in you. But more importantly, because the past six years of these Games believe in you. Your sponsors, your mentors, your nominators, the people of Panem itself, they all want to see you succeed. And so do I. I want to see you survive this year, and I want to see you win."
He quickly whip pans his head to the camera behind him. Right as his eyes make contact with a hundred million other hungry souls watching him on the telly, he quickly adds, "But we all know that not everybody is going to win." The President stares directly into the lens, daring the viewers to disagree. It seems like he's trying to hide a twinge of pain in his face as he continues: "There are no second chances in the Hunger Games. There are no retries. Once you enter the arena, you must fight to the death. Only one of you can come out alive. So make sure it's you. It's like that game I played recently, I think it was called Fortnite? I mean, there were definitely weapons involved. And probably shooting. Anyway, whatever it was, it wasn't a Hunger Games. Not yet, anyway. But when it is, I hope it's you."
The President returns to his seat and sits down. His eyes linger on the camera for a moment longer, then he turns away. "You are also wondering why I am in this room, talking to you, instead of outside. Well, let me just say that I'm here because I'm the President of Panem, and I take my responsibilities seriously. Also, I really wanted to see how many times I could use the word 'death' in a single speech. So far, I've only used it... twice. That's pretty good, right?"
President Snow pauses and looks around the room once more. "In the last three years of the TVTropes Hunger Games Simulator alone we've managed to raise enough money to fund the existence of this room, as well as all the cameras we are using right now. Were it not for the sacrifices of tributes past, this room would just vanish, just like that. I urge our Districts, therefore, to continue to support the Games, and to keep donating money. Without the support of Panem, these Games would cease to exist, and without the Games, our world, and yours, will be lost. So please, keep sending in your money, as well as your tributes. Only then will we be able to save ourselves, and keep broadcasting. I hope that we will have another good six years of TVTropes Hunger Games ahead of us, because if we don't, then I might have to find a new job. Something with less death."
The President smiles at the camera, and turns away. "So, I'll leave you with a final thought: Remember, it's not just about winning or losing, it's about survival. It's about drive; it's about power. We stay hungry, we devour. Put in the work, put in the hours, and take what's ours. And it's about the fact that every day, you get closer to being the next tribute in the Hunger Games. You are the future of Panem. The future of humanity. The future of TVTropes. And, despite my countless deaths and retconned survival events, I am proud to be your President. Now, go forth and kill each other. May the RNG be ever in your favor."
President Snow winks. This concludes the pre-Bloodbath segment of the Hunger Games.
DISCLAIMER: The preceding speech was mostly written using novelai.net.

Princess and Silver Knight
... Okay, that just happened. In case some of you were wondering what just happened with President Snow there... I have no idea either.
Alright, alright, we are back, and we are live! Please do excuse us for the delay; the making of this season turned out to be much more difficult than expected. With that said, I am your humble host, so let us proceed to this all-stars season, featuring some of the most famous (and infamous) tributes throughout the years of the Games!
Opening Theme: Kevin MacLeod - Journey to Ascend
- The Reaping
- We begin this special season with 48 tributes, as per usual, but only one of them will survive to the end. Place your bets, everyone!
- The Bloodbath
- As per usual, most people run away, with or without anything to add on their person.
- She's suspicious... Ah, she was an imposter! Someone bring in the actual Navi, please!
- Sean ensures that President Coin will have an audience for her speech of the season.
- Terry channels the Ganondorf on Snake, but that didn't work out.
- Chopper is just here because it's funny.
- Buh bye!
- The Peacekeepers have a certain amount of tolerance to tributes bragging that they're going to win, as Legion finds out the hard way.
- Bought too much Jell-Os, you guys?
- Wrong direction! A mistake that cost them dearly.
- Hayley forgot something important, and Tonya takes the opportunity to continue her corpse hoarding, this time in a fresh way.
- The Bloodbath is incomplete without a little BOOM! in it. Tokido really should have watched out for that.
- Michelle is already not looking good...
- BoBoiBoy gets quite the ominous warning.
- And cue "Green Greens"! ... Why the fuck, you guys
- A) I didn't know Agatha still has a living relative, and B) ... eating sand? Seriously?
- Starscream is relatively safe... for now.
- And now... the Cornucopia is on a rampage! Unfortunately, the Green Bean Casserole is now flat as a pancake, Lana's fate has been determined, and CATS have no chance to survive make his time.
- No-Feet is already feeling ANGERY
- Faking the Dead, how convenient.
- Rextro Sixtyfourus, a Roman? Someone really needs to get a pair of glasses.
- And cue the song!
- Peko really should've done something else than to try and use an aimbot.
- Day 1
- Well, with Snape being a wizard, I don't blame him.
- Hajime is mind-blown by his food.
- BoBoiBoy's warning go unheeded.
- Nemo already goes straight for the kill. Luckily for Navi, her size and speed allow her an opportunity to dodge the bolt.
- Starscream is apparently a pro at baseball, and he hates it when people cry during the game.
- Itachi turns Kirby into Bomb-by, but unfortunately the roll of the fuse is also not in his favor.
- Berdly is not happy about being in the Games.
- Snake agrees with the assessment that the last season was pretty fun.
- Luffy, being a pirate, tries his hand at thievery, but fails to think things through when he makes his escape.
- Leon attempts a Grand Theft Me after his death, but help came for 999, forcing him out into the afterlife.
- ... What.
- You two hate unicorns? What the fuck
- The team makes a shortcut for the lines. I'm surprised that worked, tbh
- Mmm, saucy.
Not in that way, you guys; it's a clean season!
- Fallen Tributes:
- The deceased are: Legion, Bale's Hall of Famers, Hayley Brannigan, Tokido, Green Bean Casserole, Lana, CATS, Rextro Sixtyfourus, Peko Pekoyama, Hajime Makunochi, Itachi Uchiha, Kirby, and Leon Powalsky. Hoo boy, now THAT is a real bloodbath!
