He's in a coma but he's still working on the chapter. Don't worry, Willis is a dedicated member of the forum.

The thirteenth name drawn was Emma Squalor. Emma didn’t hate Tragedy. Emma didn’t hate anyone. She loved every single member of 667 Dark Avenue, and never wished harm on any of them. Still, when Tragedy said that he hoped each competitor would try their hardest, Emma knew she would have to try or else she would disappoint Tragedy, and disappointing somebody was her worst nightmare.
The fourteenth name drawn was freebird. Freebird lived with his mother, and they had a bumpy relationship. Freebird never intended anyone to find out about any of their quarrels. He wouldn’t never publically announce every single random thing his mother said to him, not even the rudeness she displayed when she suggested he be more careful after crashing the car. But Tragedy discovered the nature of this family relationship, and announced it to all of Dark Avenue. He made freebird a laughing stock. Freebird would use the pent up anger from his mother and Tragedy to win in the arena.
The fifteenth name drawn was Countess Violet. At one point in time, Countess Violet was the most popular member of 667 Dark Avenue, winning voting based popularity contests in landslides. Tragedy, full of jealousy that he never won such contests, started a vicious rumor that Countess Violet had been stuffing the ballot box. Her reputation never recovered. She would win in the arena using her wits and strength. Also she would cheat because she actually did stuff the ballot boxes. She was a cheater.
The sixteenth name drawn was Sixteen. Once an anonymous loser, Tragedy befriended Sixteen and his stock rose instantly. He was even elevated to bro status. But the longer their friendship went on, the more Sixteen realized that they weren’t friends at all. Sixteen had become a clown for Tragedy. He would force him to tell humiliating stories about his life, and then laugh uproariously at them. He even started false rumors, like the infamous rumor about sixteen having relations with a sheep. Sixteen would try to explain that he and the sheep were just really good friends, but nobody believed him anymore. He vowed he would win in the arena for Fluffy, and fashion a jester cap for Tragedy to wear.
The seventeenth name drawn was Linda. Linda was a longtime resident of Dark Avenue, and it’s only known Mormon. Most citizens were very welcoming towards Linda’s viewpoints, because they were kind and didn’t harm anyone else. But Tragedy made it a point to ridicule Mormonism, even hiring two comedians to write a musical making fun of it, solely to alienate Linda. Linda was a peace loving member, but she was willing to fight in order to prove Tragedy wrong.
The eighteenth name drawn was PJ. PJ was a clown. Everybody loved laughing when PJ came around. His only real fault was not acknowledging when somebody makes a funny comment on one of his Facebook statuses. But Tragedy banned jokes from 667 when he thought PJ was becoming too popular. Without jokes to tell, PJ didn’t know what to do. Eventually he stopped speaking all together, and then physically couldn’t anymore. He knew the only way to regain his voice was to win the Dark Games, and take the throne from Tragedy.
The nineteenth name drawn was LSWannabe. LSWannabe was a good girl, who wanted to have a nice relationship with a nice boy. She had found her soulmate, and the two of them were very happy. However, when Tragedy met her boyfriend, he corrupted him. Tragedy made the boyfriend into a cheating jerk who treated LSWannabe like trash. She went crazy due to the stress of the situation. She had to win the tournament, to win back this boy and to make Tragedy pay.
The twentieth name drawn was Tiago Squalor. Tiago was Dark Avenue’s number one homosexual. He loved men and wasn’t afraid to show it. He was also from Brazil or Puerto Rico or something, but I can’t remember the actual one, because Tragedy often made fun of him and pretended he was from the wrong country. This enraged Tiago. He wanted to win the Dark Games, so he could ship Tragedy to whatever the actual country he is from to be subjected to more torture. He would use his knowledge of fashion, techno music and other stereotypical gay stuff to win in the arena.
The twenty-first name drawn was tk. Tk was a well-liked member. She had a secret love affair with masterviolet456, which they cloaked by pretending to be enemies. Tragedy found out about this, and had masterviolet deported. Tk was never the same after that, and worst of all, she was never able to tell anyone how she felt because she couldn’t drop the act of hating masterviolet without letting everyone know her deep dark secret. If she won, she would use her power to bring masterviolet back as her queen.
The twenty second name drawn was F.D. As a newer citizen of Dark Avenue, F.D’s voice wasn’t always heard, but he was still respected by the citizens for his friendly ways and his good sense of humor. Tragedy, however, had banned listening to any female singer/songwriters from Dark Avenue. F.D’s greatest passion had been taken away from him, and he would fight in the arena so he could make every day Bjork day.
The twenty-third name drawn was songbird. Songbird was a longtime employee of Tragedy, and always too her work very seriously. She felt she deserved more credit for her work, but was still happy because a job well done is its own reward. However, not only did Tragedy fail to recognize her good work, but he sent his buddy Willis and luster Pandora after songbird, attacking each and every project that she holds dear. She had finally had enough of the ridicule, and she knew who she intended on targeting in the arena.
The twenty-fourth name drawn was Misery. Misery was essentially an unknown citizen, who rarely ever came out and hadn’t been seen in years. Everybody in the crowd looked around at each other, not knowing who this member was. But then, everybody looked at Lord Tragedy, whose face had turned white in fear. Tragedy knew who Misery was, even though nobody else did. As Tragedy read off the final name, his voice choked up. Tragedy had just inadvertently sent his brother to be killed.
Next time... The battle begins, and people die.

Well, this was an intriguing set-up. There's an awful lot of hatred toward Tragedy to drive the plot forward, but now also love!

Very exciting - and strangely similar to what is happening in reality.

This is too good. The Countess Violet part was gold. I laughed out loud many times.

Also, I liked the part where Willis pretends that it's Tragedy's fault he and Pandora are mean to Songbird, and not just them being jerks.
