72 Hours Readathon

#1

Post by Sh4dE »

So you guys know Battle Royale (1999). You guys know SOTF Version 1 (2005). But did you guys know there was a big fanfiction that influenced us in huge ways inbetween? I present you 72 Hours (2003) and I highly recommend everyone to read it. I can understand that it's length of almost 80 chapters can be daunting, so I'll try something crazy. A 72 Hours Readathon where I assign a character you to read. I know, that novels aren't meant to be read-a-thon'd but we can try, right? I'll list every hour (HOUR not chapter) the characters appear in next to their name in the list. Reading part of 72 hours might motivate you to read the thing as a whole or it might even inspire you for your future SOTF writing.
[+] character list. do not open if you want to read 72 hours in one go and not be spoilered.
H stands for Highway to Hell, which is chapter 2
S stands for Superstar, which is chapter 3
announcements are every 6 hours

Sure, I'll take one. Initially I thought this was 'read as much as you can in 72 hours'

Naft: Karen Peterson (Appears in the Hours: H,0,9,20,21,27)

Note to everyone: since Highway to Hell (A Prologue of sorts) introduced a lot of characters, I can recommend using f3 to search your character's mention in the chapters Highway to Hell, Hour 0 and Hour 1 to an extent.

If you wanna read the announcements, they are every 6 hours. Also feel free to read the Prologue chapters Preface (explaining the setting), Highway to Hell (Introducing plenty of characters on the bus), Superstar (the Briefing) and Hour 0 (which kind of serves like The Worst Game In History like in BRAURP)
