It was probobly just a financial issue. They had to pay all the starring actors, tribute extras, capitol extras, tech crew, script writer, reaping extras, etc. And even if some of the larger groups of extras were coumputerized they have to pay the guy who coumputerized them. I'm not saying Madge isn't awesome (she is.) just she probobly wasn't in the movie for those certain reasons. On the bright side she plays a big part in Catching Fire so maybe she'll be in that movie!
