no, it's not. It's how The Lottery worked. The Battle Royale connection is that it's a fight to the death in a confined space, and the only contestants are teenagers. oh and that some of em luck out with weapons, and some really don't. That's it.

No, I'm not talking about HG, I'm saying between Battle Royale and The Lottery. I can't figure out how multiple people came up with that connection if they've read both, since there really isn't one.
