Yeah, that too. In the first book I wasn't as bothered by them hiding in the cave because I felt that part of the reason that was happening was because the Gamemakers were in some ways letting it happen. They wanted their romantic subplot just like we as readers did, so they weren't going to urge Cato to find them or otherwise force a confrontation just yet. So, okay, yeah, made sense (though a bit of a stretch.)

The clockrena though was too much for me. I mean I know that, well, there was a reason why it was predictable (trying not to spoil; I'm not sure how you make those fancy spoiler tags.) I get that part. But it was just so obviously beatable that I had a hard time with it. I was like, well if Snow sees the initial plans beforehand he'd never okay something that predictable knowing he's got clever tributes who outsmarted the GMs before. And if he doesn't get to see the plans beforehand and trusts the Head GM (that seems a stretch, especially given that the point was to kill Katniss), it would last just until Wiress's first mutter of "tick tock" and he'd be immediately ordering them to randomize things.

To me, it was logarhythmic Villain Decay and it just killed everything for me right there.
