CAPTURE THE FLAG: SEPTEMBER

[Annabeth Chase]

It is my great pleasure to announce that Camp Half-Blood will be holding a game of CAPTURE THE FLAG this SEPTEMBER! The opposing teams, blue and red, will be led by Ares Cabin and Athena Cabin respectively. So start thinking which team you want to join (yes, you do get to chose, and no, all your characters don’t have to be on the same team)! To join a team, talk to either Ryan, blue team captain, or myself, red team captain. Just make sure to join a team by the end of the month if you don’t want to be left out, because once the game begins, the recruiting is closed.

To sign up for a team, a character must be a demigod who stays at Camp Half-Blood or will be there by the month September. If a character stays at Camp Half-Blood, but is currently on a quest, they can be on a team as well.

So here’s how the game works:
The game will last the entire month of September and will be based on points gained by members of the two respective teams. Points will be gained by game-related posts that meet certain criteria, which will change every week. At the end of the month, points will be tallied to find out who the winner is!
In order to keep the game as fair as possible, the criteria will be kept blind until it is time to get the score for the week. This is where you come in. For the month of August, we need as many criteria ideas as possible; things as simple as posts that have a word count exceeding some number, or even posts that contain some random word. At the end of the month, before the game begins, the criteria will be compiled and at the end of each week in September, Percy and I will both draw one of the criteria and those two will be the criteria for the week. Points will be awarded to posts made during that week that follow either of the criteria.
NOTE: Things like “uses the word --” are easiest to work with and are definitely appreciated when it comes to scoring, lol.
