Just had a thought. So, i'm gonna share it.
What if the killing in center of the arena is some kind of ritual or procedure that makes better zombies? thoughts.

Another factoid to throw into the mix on Ink: He is ridiculously fast. When escaping the Tower, Michael calls out his distance first at 100 meters. 5 seconds later (by episode running time) Ink traveled 200 meters (the call was 300). Meaning he completed a 200 meter dash in less time than it takes Usain Bolt to run the 100 meter dash. I geeked out and did the calculation and Ink was running at 89.4mph when escaping the Tower.

What's up with the nickname Ink? Makes him sound like he's from a kid's show. The One with the Markings or the Tatooed One is much creepier and badass.
I imagine he's faster and stronger than all of the average zombies and smarter than even the smart ones. Only the runners might be faster and the Behemoths are definitely stronger.
Can the One With The Markings control the Behemoths I wonder? Also, where did that one guy get the info that his name was Bill Roberts? That has not been mentioned in the episodes.
Just going by what we are given. We could always call him by his given name (Bill Roberts) instead of Ink. (Chapter2-3 Time: 20:55). Actually, if it weren't for Tower Bill, I'd probably call him Bill just for the fun of it, but it would get too confusing.
I'd think that..."The Zombie of Disputed Moniker" :-P... has some control over the Behemoths. There was one in the Arena where he killed Samantha. Skittles said the normal ones don't go near Behemoths. So either all the zombies in the Arena are smart and not normal, or ZDM can keep Behemoths in line and the others safe from a behemoth.
I think the whole blood sport thing is a bit off. My opinion only, but Samantha was taken down and ripped apart right away. I just think the people in the room are/where reserved for Ink only.
Some do feel a resemblance of pain... or at least remember what pain was. Ink was smart enough to get the hell outta dodge when Saul pulled his Crocodile Dundee "Knife" out and he popped up when they said they didn't have anymore ammo.
ok, i have a serious problem with the blood sport theory, basically, if you are attacked by a zombie, one of two things happen to u,
choice one, u are torn apart, and eaten
choice two, u escape, but you are bitten, or u've been infected in one manner or another, and you turn,
i dont see how there can be a blood sport where the zombies slowly attack and torture and toy with the human until they die, because the moment the human gets a drop of blood inside them, this can be from a bite, a cut, a scratch, dried blood, etc, they'll turn. if the zombies are toying with the human then, he'd almost immedietely turn, i dont see the mindless masses of zombies being able to restrain themselves from biting specifically to keep the human from turning, maybe the smart ones can, but definitely not the normals.
so maybe this has something to do with the immunity theory?, that there are a few humans out there that are immune to the virus, and the zombies can sense these and take these individuals alive? but once again not enough info to go off of.
