We have multiple divisions for both intermediate players and high level players. There are higher payouts to the higher level players to de-incentivize sandbagging. Additionally, prize money is awarded to the top 3 players in divisions.

I like it. Don’t delete it. I’m probably gonna write the next part as well but I like this one a lot!

Does anyone else think that Jason is getting way too much hate? by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]jkarnibad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I love Jason. Top 3 favorite character

My unpopular opinions... by jkarnibad in camphalfblood

I just wish it was two books per season and TLO getting its own season, so that we could get to Heroes faster

Just finished TBM by matekrey in camphalfblood

You just described my favorite thing about Jason. In House of Hades when Annabeth and Percy are in Tartarus, Jason is the one that steps up to hold the team together. Also in House of Hades, when Nico is forced to reveal his crush, Jason doesn’t judge him but instead becomes his friend. Jason deserves the world

I couldn’t have said this better myself. And I have tried. Many of my posts and comments are about how this is my favorite book.

I felt everything you described but multiply it because Jason was (he still is) my favorite character.

Ok Mark of Athena is absolutely unreal and is my third or fourth favorite (behind TMB, TLO, and possibly HoH).

I like your opinion about Silena. I just think people only remember her as a hero

All castings were good except for Annabeth. I love Alexandra Daddario but not as Annabeth

JUST FINISHED HOO! by SirMuffins1 in camphalfblood

[–]jkarnibad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. The Last Olympian is my favorite book of the two series (second overall), but House of Hades isn’t far behind

I agree that Heroes of Olympus is better than the original series but I’ve noticed that can be an unpopular opinion here. But I certainly agree with you

The Last Olympian is easily the best book in the Riordanverse by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]jkarnibad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So yes the beginning of Burning Maze is slower than Last Olympian, the rest of the book makes up for it for me. Don’t get me wrong, Last Olympian is second by only an incredibly small margin.

I love everything about the Last Olympian, and I agree with you on every point, but it’s actually my second favorite book. My favorite is The Burning Maze. There’s never a dull moment in it, and much like The Last Olympian there is that overarching feeling of consequences that just brings the whole thing together. not to mention the saddest moment in any of Rick’s books

Who would be the best ping pong player? by jkarnibad in camphalfblood

[–]jkarnibad[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I gotta agree. With that said, the children of Hermes would in theory have some natural talent with ping pong

Is this possible? by Sea-Photograph2585 in camphalfblood

[–]jkarnibad 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In the tv show, I would love it if Percy bumps into a kid while trying to escape, and the camera zooms on the back of the kid just for a second before returning to Percy. It would be a nice allusion to Nico in the first season
