I would want to be skilled at hiding and setting traps that would leave my opponent hanging so I wouldn't have to kill them.


Emily | 142 comments Mod
I would also like a bow and arrow


jueun (jueunkang) I would want to be skilled n hiding, hunting, killing ( i guess), and surviving. :)


Emily | 142 comments Mod
Yeah, survival. Camoflage, running, traps, archery, hiding


jueun (jueunkang) yup. I would really NEED survival. :)


Emily | 142 comments Mod
Survival is probably the biggest skill needed in the hunger games, I mean if u didn't know how to find water or what was edible, u would be dead within a day even if u were an awesome killer


jueun (jueunkang) I know!! Like Katniss, she knew what was edible~


jueun (jueunkang) OMG, i totally remembered that part. luved it~ :)


jueun (jueunkang) i know. I used to take archery but my mom made me quit. she said she was worried i could get my self to "Die"


jueun (jueunkang) ohh. 2 bad i had 2 quit. :(

jueun (jueunkang) ik!! ahh... when's my mom coming back. im home alone and scared cuz if she finds out, im DEAD!! DX


jueun (jueunkang) ik!! im getting freaked out cuz my dogs standing up and looking out.. hope she comes through the garage...


jueun (jueunkang) ahhh ik. now shes in the house.... DX

What is a real life skill u have that u could use in the hunger games?


Emily | 142 comments Mod
I know a bunch of edible plants and I am good at camouflage and hiding. I am an ok medic too. I am a more defensive than offensive person


jueun (jueunkang) hm. im a good attacker i guess. and a defender. im handy with a sword but not perfect.


Emily | 142 comments Mod
Do u fence?


jueun (jueunkang) nah. i dont fence


Emily | 142 comments Mod
How do you know sword fighting then?


jueun (jueunkang) just a little bit. i did some with my cousins.


jueun (jueunkang) aha lol. maybe that'll come helpful :)

Leah (lepolk) | 77 comments Archery, Survival, Camouflage....there are so many things you'd NEED to make it out of the HG!


Emily | 142 comments Mod
I think if you have one main skill and survival basics, that is the best you can do

I don't understand their logic.
"I want to go into the arena and get myself killed to earn glory and fame."

Leah (lepolk) | 77 comments I know, right!


Maggie (TheSilencedoctorwho) | 2 comments Survival. Maybe running, two!


Emily | 142 comments Mod
I don't get why the arena is so popular


Hilton | 16 comments Axe throwing, and running. It is so much easier to lodge an axe into someone's skull and run away than to try to stab them to death, which takes time.


Hilton | 16 comments I would totally become one of the careers. I mean yes, someone can kill you in your sleep. But you know the saying. "There are always safety in numbers!"

Jack S Here are my steps to dominance
1)Become skilled in poisons/other useful herbs
2)Become a skilled Chef
3)Become a trauma surgeon
4)Learn physics and axe-throwing
5)Learn tracking.

So then when I go into the arena I
1)Become a career, taking the role of food-provider.
2)Slowly poison the other careers.
3)Get rid of the careers.
4)Repair any wounds I have using medicinal herbs to create a local anesthetic, and repair myself.
5)Track down stragglers and calculate the trajectory to hit them with and axe from afar.
6)Hit them with an axe from afar.
7)Repeat steps 5 and 6 until I emerge victorious.
