| Welcome to Survival of the Fittest, a RPing board loosely based off of Koshun Takami's Battle Royale, with its own unique plot and spin on the 'deadly game'. We've been around quite a while, and are now in our thirteenth year, so don't worry about us going anywhere any time soon! If you're a newcomer and interested in joining, then please make sure you check out the rules. You may also want to read the FAQ, introduce yourself and stop by the chat to meet some of our members. If you're still not quite sure where to start, then we have a great New Member's Guide with a lot of useful information about getting going. Don't hesitate to PM a member of staff (they have purple usernames) if you have any questions about SOTF and how to get started! Let the games begin! |

First of all, before you even read the rest of this post, make sure you read the rules for this contest. You can't vote for yourself and you can't vote more than once. IPs associated with your account are logged by Invisionfree, so we'll know if you're cheating. That being said, let's get this party started! Voting ends tomorrow night (June 31st), so let's get those votes in ASAP! Sorry about the short length of time but I haven't been online or even anywhere in the vicinity of a computer to post these up for this month. Also, this month is going to encompass last month's kills too to be fair to everybody (since we didn't hold a contest last month). ~~~ Best Kill Award: Harry Tsai for the death of Courtney Blaggé Darnell Butler for the death of Dan Brent/Eduardo Trinidad-Villa Melina Frost for the death of Monique St. Claire Clive Maxwell for the death of Lilah Morgan Lenny Priestly for the death of Anna Vaan/Keiji Tanaka Dominica Shapiro for the death of Bradley Armstrong Jordan Redfield for the death of Julia Lauper Students who are currently deceased are not eligible to win Best Kill. Inactive students are also ineligible. --- Best Death Award: Kyle for the death of Dan Brent LaZardo for the death of Eduardo Trinidad-Villa Megami for the death of Khrysta Lawrence RePeate for the death of Monique St. Claire Xaldien for the death of Lilah Morgan Solitair for the death of Bradley Armstrong ~~~ Very, very simple template. You vote for both contests. You vote one time per contest. For example, you can vote for Blood Boy for Best Kill and Clueless for best death, or however you see fit. Fill out the two-line template below with your votes and reasoning and submit it here. ~~~ Vote: Reason: |

Heh... Keiji's was so bad it doesn't even get consideration?
BK Vote: Darnell Butler. Reason: Tell ya the truth, I'd vote for Lenny if I hadn't, y'know, written one of the kills. However, I very much like the emotions Kyle communicated with this one - it's great stuff. That, and the fast pace of the fights were great. A worthy contender BD Vote: Monique. Reason: Because... um... |

BK Vote: Dominica Shapiro Reason: The actual killing was decent enough, but i really liked the post after it, when she's talking with Bradley's corpse. That was kinda funny. BD Vote: Megami Reason: The flashback of Khrysta at the prom was bittersweet and enjoyable. |

Kill: Harry Tsai. The post seemed quicker and more visceral than a lot of the other deaths, and I liked that touch. Seemed more realistic than some epic kung-fu battle to the death. Death: Have to agree with the last voter, who said Khrysta. I think, whoever that voter was, they had it right on the money about the prom flashback. |

BKA Vote: Lenny Priestly Reason: You should probably know quite well why I'm voting for Lenny. Anna's death was probably the only one that actually stuck out from the rest, not being a complete epic battle and yet not being a sudden kill. Plus, Lenny just didn't stop at drowning Anna, he disemboweled her too. The guy deserves it. BDA Vote: Solitair Reason: Only death that wasn't completely melodramatic. That's why. |

Best Kill Award Vote: Lenny Priestly Reason: While I felt like a lot of people did a good job on the kills this time around (even though it took us two months to even get one of these up 'cause of the lack of them overall), Lenny really stuck out to me. From the beginning of the game onward, I was expecting to see something out of Lenny. Three days into the game, we hadn't seen much of anything except him and Liz running around the island. So, when they met up with Anna in the marsh and Lenny finally snapped, it was a defining moment for the character. Theseus portrayed the turn well without overkilling it, and overall, I thought it was an excellent death. Best Death Award Vote: Xaldien Reason: Well, I'm not going to make any sort of speech about how it decimated the competition or anything, because really, most of the deaths were on par with each other. Really, the reason I'm voting for Xal is because if you read Lilah's death post, you can feel his connection with both Clive and Lilah, and while things between them weren't as established as they could have been in-game, it felt like Xal really put his heart into writing this death, and that counts for something, right? |

BKA Vote: Harry Tsai Reason: I just loved the touch about Harry thinking that he'd finally found what he'd been looking for the entire time (a gun), only to realize that he'd been jipped yet again and finally snapping. That was pretty cool. Not to mention it was in almost complete cold blood, which was a nice touch. BDA Vote: Khrysta Lawrence Reason: I agree about the prom scene bit, it adds a nice touch of realism to her death without making it over the top and dramatic, which is both a hard thing to do and a very commendable one. |
