I'm ignoring the contestants because we gotta give people time to place bets and show up. Give it a minute.
Enter good seat and get mah coins, then bet at least five coins that blue wins.
Come on blue! I know where you guys live!
6 dd gotten.
Enter stadium and acquire DD. All in on Blue!
Oh, do I have any scars from the fire?
9dd
All of it on blue eh?
And yes, you look rather twofacey
A sly man slinks into the audience, getting his DD, and starts flashing a photograph.
Have you seen this man? His name is Wasted Bastard. I'm trying to track down members of my extended family, and heard that Wasted was last seen here.
The man then looks about suspiciously before realizing something, and shoots out his hand to shake that of whomever he's speaking to.
Oh, yes, my name's Sneaky Bastard. A pleasure to meet you, and I hope if you met my second cousin, he didn't dope you or anything... and I hope I'm not too late, either.
See, every time I manage to track down a cousin of mine, I discover I'm too late and they're already dead. I've got a pretty extensive list of dead cousins.
He whips out a folded chain of photgraphs. It unfolds down to the floor, and the folded section rolls all the way down into the arena before it's fully unfolded. Sneaky Bastard grins.
I'm pretty proud that I found all these. I... guess it's sad that they're all dead, though. So, what's you're name?

Mastahcheese enters the audience stands, freshly unmangled.
Get DD, and add it to my current eleven DD. Then, Place a one-DD surival bet on every person, EXCEPT Mason who gets the rest of my DD in a survival bet.
((I've pointed it out before, but it's kind've odd that survival and death are paid equally, considering survival is more than six times as likely.))
5 dd
And paris will handle your expansive, silly betting.
Woo!
Claim DD, buy 3 more beers, and take a seat near the back.

What do those beams look like? How are they shaped?
How large are they?
What's the distance between intersections?
Do we start on them or can we choose where and when to get on?
Can I rip part of my clothes to use as rope?

They're square, about a foot wide, crisscrossing the area in a grid. Each square on the grid is about 6 feet to a side, so that is the distance between intersections.
You will start in the center of one side, lined up with one person on each beam. You can't really chose. Sure, you can get naked and think it will help.

Usual spot eh? I was gonna make a lewd joke about your NPC date but I'll just allude to it and let you figure it out yourself.
>Claim the DD, have a brief montage of caring for my sisters and ensuring they're fed/sent to school/etc., then re-enter the arena and claim my fresh batch of DD.
>How many do I have? Bet six of them on Mason and go take a seat- preferably away from any manic-looking types.
8 dd
8 plus how many others you should have. Should be on the front page.
6 on mason, and a seat away from the crazy people.
Heh, yeah, good luck with that.
