This is a community event with a very minor reward that is held almost exclusively for entertainment purposes. It is very fun time where players get to have a more authentic HG experience. Everyone who signs up should understand that. If you don't like it that way, you don't have to sign up.
Doesnt seem very fun for the people who had a chance to win and where killed off :/

I actually think the Hell Games are wonderful. Yes, I do apply every time and never make it, and yes the gamemakers can be harsh, but that's what they do in the 'real' Hunger Games, be harsh to the tributes!

I love to watch the stream, and play afterwards with Chad, as it's the most fun thing I've ever done on MCSG. Chad and all the game-makers are never talking rude in the livestream, but they're always joyful. Why they throw zombies at the players? If you were watching the stream you would of heard how they wanted it to be as equal as possible going into the deathmatch so the stacked player wouldn't win in a second.

It's just your honest opinion, I know, but I disagree with 90% of the stuff on here.

Yes the gamemakers are supposed to be harsh, but not kill the people that could provide good fight and entertainment!

I believe the people who didnt get anything shouldn't have it "made it even" by killing their competition.

Really? I was in hellgames six. For a while, I was half of the most stacked team in the game. For a good chunk of the game, we were peppered with bats, zombies, and especially TNT. In the end, we died because of a player that would have been an easy kill, if the gamemakers wouldn't have given him nearly full iron and an iron axe.

Me and my partner didn't care about any of that, and I still regard it as one of my most fun experiences with this game.

Don't forget the Hell Games where Blamph participated (HG4 or HG5 or 3 i think?) More than half the tributes were stuck in holes and others got the corn instead :/

Well, that's you guys.

I've talked to some people who were practically cheated out of a win and they were rather mad about the happening of events.

No one is owed a win, or even a fair shot at a win. That's the central point of the hunger games concept, and is the whole idea of the hell games as well. Outside of a few instances where players were outed by issues with the game setup and such, there isn't much to complain about. If you get accepted for the hellgames, you should approach it with a different attitude than you would an actual, balanced competition.

I really feel like you just don't get this....

Sure, you should expect to be challenged and messed with, but not killed off especially when you can provide a good fight!

I tried to apply 3 times to the hell games, I didn't manage to get in any of these. And yeah, it seems that they only pick up the known players in MCSG, and not anyone else in general. This is why there needs to be region Hell Games so more players could have a chance to play it.
