Gabrielle,

You didn't join the Careers, but you still have a really strong alliance. Good job on the kill! Only Career that died! You did great, and I am glad you allied with Tommy and Brie. There are 20 people left in the arena, so you're 8 deaths closer to going home. Just remember your 10 in training. You, Brie, and Tommy are the biggest threats to the Careers. Don't let it get to your head, though. Try to win this so you can go back to District 5 in the Victor's Village! Just stay safe from all the danger, and don't die. Dying is bad. Brann, Asher, Isa, Cyan, Lindsay, Opal, and Elliot are all in the forest. If you run past Lindsay's alliance, let them go. Eleven of the 20 tributes left are in the forest. Just look out, because we have lots of tributes who are ready to kill. Now, I may give you a few things. But, I'll have to see first. Just don't let anyone sneak up on you, and make sure someone is awake at all times. Don't kill Lindsay!

Lindsay,

Good job in allying with the tributes from 8. You may be allying with Cyan soon. Just cover him up. He might glow in the dark. I would suggest that your alliance move to the rocky area where it's a lot safer. There are only two other tributes there, and here, there are eight. If you want to ally with Cyan, don't leave until he's with you. Just watch your step. Honestly, the Capitol is doing a lot better this year than most of the time. You are very strong, and think, there's already eight deaths. That's great! Except for Travis. :( Anyway, just try to stay as far away from any alliances as possible.  Think of the Capitol's Victor's Village, and how well you'll be treated there.  Don't go anywhere near the Cornucopia.  But as for the tributes from 9, stay away from them, and they probably won't harm you, but set up defenses just in case.  I believe you can do this.  Just stay away from anyone except Cyan.  He's from the Capitol, too, and Opal and him have the same mentor.  Don't kill Gabrielle!

I would like to send Lindsay a mace, leaving her with 375 dollars.

Also, what would the price of a shovel be?
