Hm. Does that title give too much away? We're not actually sure what we do and don't want to reveal at this point. Oh well, our special email is coming out in a few hours anyway. We'll let you guys have this free hint.
Speaking of hints, we really appreciate those of you who have been connecting the dots and see how we've come full circle. Back at the beginning of Spoons, we dropped so many hints leading up to this final Immunity. From using the phrase “the odds aren't in your favor” in our promotional video to posting a picture of Peeta in one of our earlier articles, the hints have been there all along. Yet we're not done coming in a complete circle yet. Remember those shapes you had to fill out at the very beginning? Yeah, those are going to be significant in about... 4 hours. We totally didn't realize that we were putting the last Immunity on April Fools' Day when we originally planned things out. It must be destiny.
On the topic of connecting the dots and figuring things out, we've heard some crazy theories from all of you about what we're going to pull regarding the Silver Spoons. One popular theory is that everyone who grabs a Silver Spoon is going to be killed tonight, leaving the others to fight it out for the Finale. That actually makes a lot of sense, seeing how in the actual Hunger Games film the mad dash to the cornucopia in the beginning lead to a lot of deaths. But no, we're not that bad. It's been a personal rule of ours to not leave any deaths purely up to chance. While there is undoubtedly chance involved here and there, whether you survive or die is -- and always has been -- up to your tenacity (and your killer's). Another theory is that all 14 Silver Spoons in addition to the Top Spooners will be going to the Finale. Just think about it for a second. In past Finales, those games in the quad, when have there ever been more than 10 people there at once? So that theory's a bogus too. But we do give you all props for thinking of some viable ideas. Guess you'll just have to wait and see!
Anyway, WHAT A DAY IT WAS. These are the moments we live for. True, unrestrained savagery. Brunch was a war zone. So many Spooners left class early (sorry teachers) and hungrily eyed the Silver Spoons in the center of the quad. We thought we were ready to record everything down, with three pairs of eyes and a camera on a tripod watching. Boy, were we wrong. As soon as the bell ring, chaos erupted. Within 3 seconds, people were running in all directions. Some with Silver Spoons. Some empty-handed. Some hunched over trying to scrape up a remaining one. And some completely on the ground. Here's a shot of the action close-up:
We've never seen you guys so into something Spoons-related before. Props to all of you for being truly passionate Spooners. Even Mr. Ramirez was into it, signing himself up as our unofficial security guard (but for reals, thanks for being a homie). In fact, the whole school seemed to be pretty into it. We drew quite a crowd, as if it were someone's prom asking or something.
Many of today's stories were pretty similar, and we won't name any names so that the holders of the Silver Spoons may have a chance to hide and lay low. Most escapes involved people scooping up a Silver Spoon and then running to a hiding spot, usually with 5 or 6 people right on their backs. From a distance, they looked like little comets. Here are some quotes from successfully escaped Silver Spoon holders.
“Kicked the spoon the moment the bell rang, then made a dash into the band room.”
“Just grabbed the spoon and dipped to the bathroom.”
“I just grabbed a spoon as the bell rang and ran towards the band hallway, then sprinted to the locker room.”
“Picked up a spoon and sprinted nonstop to my car.”
“Picked it up and scootered away into the low brass room.”
“I just biked away.”
As you can see, clearly a pattern in the movements of safe Silver Spoon holders. Interestingly, some of you were pretty clever and decided to hide by likely getaway locations rather than go for the center directly. A swarm of Spooners waited in the parking lot for people to run over, and there was a small mob guarding the locker rooms, too. Someone actually succeeded in winning over a Silver Spoon by waiting in one of these locations and predicting that someone would run that way. Now, for the profound quote of the day:
“Justin's hella fast.”
We couldn't have said it any better ourselves. You all best watch out for those Cross Country guys, because word on the street is that Ryan Sadjadi is going on a rampage. At lunch, he was spotted talking into his watch as if he were in a spy movie or something. Apparently, he chased 5 or 6 different people over the course of the day. One included following someone from their class across campus nearly into their dad's van.
We'll leave it at that for today. Not big stories, really. Besides, most of you saw the whole thing with your very own eyes. Teachers were even in on the hype. Now, we can cross that off our bucket list. Host a real life Hunger Games? Check.
Now, we'll leave you with a poem someone left on our ask.fm earlier today. We appreciate these things, ya know. Even though the poet appears to have some difficult with rhyme and punctuation.
Yo spoons of Silver
This immunity's iller
Than anything i've ever seen and your killer
Is probably bitter
That he ain't the only one that can litter
A sticker on you
Stay tuned because at midnight, we'll be posting our much-anticipated April Fools' email right here on The Daily Cannon (and sending it out to all the Spooners). This weekend, we have our final installment of Spoontistics as well as an article entitled “The Big Reveal” -- a post revealing all the secrets of Spoons (i.e. the full loop of killers and targets, hidden identities, etc.). Our days are numbered, and we're excited for this final week. Until next time!
