Yes, that's right. Our current batch of Legionnaires (minus Gear and plus Andromeda and Thunder because I need to even the sides) have had enough of domestic squabbles and girls revolting. Just WHICH gender is the best...the Legion gals or the Legion guys? This is the game where you get to help us find out and Future gets to badly spoof the Real World/Road Rules challenges as best he can!
Remember the Adventure-era Computo story, where some weird globe made by Computo in the Clubhouse robbed everyone of their super-powers, biological or not? Well, it's been rebooted! All Legionnaires are left with their natural strength and inginuity to compete in these events!
Every 5 days, we'll start a new round. Every round will consist of a challenge in a different location of the United Planets where the Legionnaires will compete in ranked events, where there can be a first, second, etc place winner. After I post the challenge, it's up to you, the viewers, to quite simply rank who you think would win this contest in what order. Remember they don't have powers! You'll make a list of the boys and then a list of the girls competing in each round, and place them in what order you think they'd finish their task. We'll be starting off with 14 Legionnaires on each team, so you'll rank them from first to fourteenth place.
At the end of each round I'll award weighted points like KP's football game to each Legionnaire. If they were awarded first place in your list, they'll get 14 points. Last place, one point. The points Legionnaires receive from everyone's lists will be added together, and the guy and girl with the lowest score each round will be eliminated until there are only three boys and three girls remaining to compete in the big, final showdown to determine which gender is the best at the end of 'THE LEGION' series: GUYS or GIRLS?
The boys competing will be: Cosmic Boy, Live Wire, Invisible Kid, Chameleon, Brainiac 5, Star Boy, Gates, Ultra Boy, M'Onel, Ferro, Karate Kid, Wildfire, and Timber.
The girls: Saturn Girl, Apparition, Triad, XS, Spark, Andromeda, Kinetix (terrorform), Violet, Umbra, Sensor, Kid Quantum II, Thunder, Shikari, and Dreamer.
I'll start the first round Sunday night. I want to wait and see if anyone has any questions, if the rules were clear, and make sure there would be a fan base for playing this!

If this is like RR/RW, then we should also figure out which couple will hook up, break up, or get into catfights

Haha. We'll go ahead and make Kinetix non-Terrorform, since I'm having to retcon in Thunder anyway and am leaving out Gear and Superboy.
You know, I like Drake's idea. It might be fun every round to have another little game going. Pick which members of the opposing teams hook-up, bicker, break-up, and what-not. I'll see what I can work in.

Whoops. I miscounted my Legion guys (and forgot the 'Wolf' in Timber Wolf). Both teams balanced? Good. Alright, here we go....
ROUND 1 LOCATION: The mother ocean of Hykraius! OBJECTIVE: There are twenty-eight small logs/platforms off the shore of the world's only dry land island. These logs are barely big enough for someone to stand on. So, you guessed it, all Legionnaires without the aide of their powers or flight rings must balance on these logs over the methane water to see who can stay up the longest. Special platforms have been made for Sensor and Gates, who both can still barely fit. Whichever guy and gal falls first, receives the lowest rank, with the guy and girl lasting the longest taking first.
The Male Contenders: Cosmic Boy, Live Wire, Invisible Kid, Chameleon, Brainiac 5, Star Boy, Gates, Ultra Boy, M'Onel, Ferro, Karate Kid, Wildfire, Gear, and Timber Wolf.
The Female Contenders: Saturn Girl, Apparition, Triad, XS, Spark, Andromeda, Kinetix, Violet, Umbra, Sensor, Kid Quantum II, Thunder, Shikari, and Dreamer.
So, rank the Legion gals and then the Legion guys from who you think will last the longest to whom won't last long at all. Round 1 will end on Thursday, September 9th.

KGZ, the ranking is for what order you think people would last in the competition posted for Round 1. No ranking favorites in this game, I'm afraid.
If it were about favorites, XS would definitely be a lot higher on my list, but as it stands I don't think she has the patience/balance for the mission at hand.

Congrats to Karate Kid & Shikari, who took first place! All Legionnaires did a fantastic job and we already have multiple heroes pulling away from the others! Unfortunately, we have to bid farewell to the two lowest ranked over-all: Ferro and XS.
"I wish I didn't have to go! It's kind of embarassing to be first...plus I think we Legion gals have the chance to really make our mark and, uh, beat the boys. Good luck to both teams, I'll be missing you!"
"Well, it's been real. I'm glad to be off that log but sad to be leaving. Sorry to let us down, guys."
