Peeta and Katniss actually watched Haymitch's Games on video, but we don't know much about the first Games of the many other tributes who are in the arena with them in CF. What do you think about the tactic Johanna used? Any speculations about what happened in Finnick's or Madge's games? Or maybe what happened during her games that made Annie how she is?

Well we all know that Annie watched her District partner be beheaded, but I want to know is- was she part of the careers or not? She's from a career District after all.
-I wanted to see the first Quell, or at least know something about its victor. I have an idea that District 1 or 2 won however.

I never even thought about her being a Career, she just seems so timid, even before she went crazy - like, if she was a Career, the gore of seeing her District partner killed shouldn't have affected her, and you would think she wouldn't have been close to him anyway.
I want to know if she met Finnick before or after her Games.

I don't think all careers are heartless however, so Annie could've been a kinder example. Finnick was probably one, especially since Tridents are hardly used with fishing anymore (highly impractical, they'd have used nets/rods). Mags wouldn't have been (too early on for there to have been any careers) so really it's up in the air...
No offense to Johanna lovers, but I always disliked her after finding out what she did. It was a coward's way out. Sure, people could say 'it was to fool the other tributes, it's their own fault they believed it' but I'm a dying breed who believes in fighting face to face with honor. What she did was cowardly.
-and finally, I wanted more on the morphlings. They seemed more like plot devices than actual people. Even the meek attempts to flesh them out failed. At least give them a name SuCo, rather than hammer home the 'they're so far gone' excuse.

I'd love to read about the first Quell. I'm not sure who it would feel worse for, the tributes or the people who were forced to vote. And how would they deal with a tie?
I'd also love more on the Career tributes. SuCo portrays them as soulless monsters, however they must have had some sort of past, something to make them like that. And I don't buy the whole "they-were-born-with-a-lust-for-blood" idea people bat around. I find the Careers the most fun to write about, as you get to know about the Careers when they're not killing/being killed. I've done two fics about a girl in the Careers and one about Clove, and they're incredibly fun to write about!
I'd really love to read about the girl from 8 (you know, she lit the fire on the first night). Was she really stupid, or going crazy, or wanted to die, or in survival mode? I also did a fic about her, and I portrayed it as she tried so many other ways to contain warmth, but couldn't get any other warmth. But after doing some research, I found out that 8 was in the north by the Great Lakes, so it wouldn't make sense that she wasn't accustomed to cold.
