User blog:KnowledgeProspector/UFSW Hunger Games 2 - Not Dead Yet.

Hello there, gents. KP here with some much needed words about the UFSW Hunger Games.

Hiatus out of nowhere
I'm sure all of you who were anticipating the HG's noticed that it just went splat... dead on the ground. A promising start, but thoroughly held back when I turned away from it for months, and months. I hate it very much, yes, but there were also a few reasons that factored in to that.

The fact that about two other stories pulled out from the HG's kind of bummed me out. It was fine when one story (LiH) left, but... the other being scrapped (DSS)? It discouraged me a bit since it threw off the lineup we were already cooking up, knowing that one story already died when we were just at the introduction stage...

Another reason is, purely, laziness. I was trying to juggle numerous stories of mine at one time, and I still think I can do it, even though I've proven to myself that I can. So, now that I've settled in with my other story, I can focus on the HG's a bit better.

The last reason I'm going to get into will be tied to the next subject. It was not just me who felt this way; Walkerbait22 a fellow author, also felt discouraged in writing it. And so, we've settled, pretty recently, on what we're going to be doing...

Walkerbait22 is quitting
Yep. AJ will no longer be writing with us. We haven't really asked him to announce it himself, so I'm doing two birds with one stone with this blog. He's not feeling up to it writing the Hunger Games anymore. Nothing personal really, he's just lost motivation. But no matter... me and Danny have decided that we'll go on without him.

A few changes to Season 2
We've decided to modify some things before we continue on with this new two-person partnership. Here are the changes/notes in list form so that it's simpler:
 * The story Dreams and Songs to Sing will be taken out, and in its place, the story Dead Legacy will take over. Keep an eye out on the character page to see which characters are going to be representing the story.
 * It will just be me and Danny writing the story, and we'll continue the pace of switching authors per issue.
 * The introduction issues will be reworked, so that we can fit the new characters in. Certain parts might be kept, while others will be noticeably changed.

And, that's it, I think. Danny will rewrite the first few issues while I actually start mine. We would like to really get this going pretty soon, and I hope you guys are still with us.

Note to the two authors, if you guys have any additional stuff to say, either edit this blog or post in the comments. Thanks.
