    I like how everyone in this thread is proficient enough at archery to pick people off from cover.

    I'd kill without problem, the thing is gathering food and a place to sleep. I'm in pretty good shape and I'm strong, I'm not dumb like some of the people in the book and I don't have a problem eating 'gross' things, like bugs. The problem isn't that some random guy would kill me, I think I would die of not sleeping or perhaps walk in to a trap.

    No, if that were the case, the Gamemakers would throw something at you that would force you out of your hiding place. The audience wants a show.

    I would win. Because, in order to win something like that you gotta be... sneaky! "Yeah, Charlie you gotta be sneaky!" :P

    This guy has the right idea, "kill people in their sleep" is the correct answer.

    what he said. anyone read the book knows that you cant just hide from everyone else the entire time, the gamemakers would create a situation that would force you back towards the other tributes duh.

    edited: Also this isnt covered in the movies but they collect the bodies after you kill someone.
    I have no intention of eating them.

    --------------------
    I'm no good at archery. I'd rate myself at a -4. I do know how to put the pointy end of a stick into your lung so you don't make noises while you choke on your own blood though. I'm a +8 at that.

    *daydreams about Hunger Games* ahhhh : )

    I have played Skyrim at least 3 times in a row with archery. I think I know what I am doing.

    Did I mention it was on Master Difficulty?

    Also I have been hunting northern and lower Michigan IRL for quite a few years if that answers your question.

    Ya, I switched my sneaky archer over to master and it's still trivial difficulty =/ I wish I hadn't gone and done all that OP crafting stuff...

    I'd probably die before the game even gets going. While I may have some basic survival skills and could probably overpower some of the weaker competitors, the simple fact is I have no ability to run long distances. Even though I have the energy to do so, I get nasty runner's cramp very quickly and wouldn't be able to outrun all but the slowest opponent.
    Roleplaying, hardcore Raiding, running LFR on the occasional weekend, PvPing, rolling alts, achievement hunting, pet battling, or just enacting an endless series of whims, I don't care how you play WoW. Just as long as you have fun doing it.

    I don't I could ever get the nerve to kill someone, but I may be able to survive on my own and hope everyone kills everyone else.

    If you're over the age limit, just imagine that you are 18.
    You forget that they will train you in the art of survival when you get picked. I wouldn't choose my strategy until after that.
