I'm fine with whatever.


BRING ON THE CARNAGE !!!!

We could also have him be the somewhat crazy 5YL Roxxas, but I also don't mind taking him out. We already have Ol-Vir anyway.

I have taken some suggestions into consideration and have edited the lost. I think it might be a good idea to finalize the list before we decide which versions of the characters will participate.

1 Tharok
2. Emerald Empress
3.Mano
4.Persuader
5. Earth-Man
6. Caress
7. Twine
8. Evisceratronic
9. Neutrax
10. Silver Slasher
11. Titania
12. Lazon
13. Mist Master
14. Magno Lad
15. Esper Lass
16. Micro Lad
17. Ze Tongue
18. Phantom Lad
19. Calorie Queen
20. Lightning Lord
21. Cosmic King
22. Saturn Queen
23. Chameleon Chief
24. Sun Emperor
25. Beauty Blaze
26. Echo
27. Radiation Roy
28. Spider Girl
29. Nemesis Kid
30. Ron-Karr
31. Zymyr
32. Hunter
33. Tyr
34. Ol-Vir
35. Monster Master
36. Nardo
37. Elysion
38. Dr. Regulus
39. Computo
40. Size Lad
41. Blackout Boy
42. Magnetic Kid
43. Alaktor
45. Evillo
46. Apollo
47. Wild Huntsman
48. Sugyn
49. Hag
50. Black Mace
51. Mystelor
52. Holdur
53. Rogarth
54. Shagrek
55. Command Kid
56. Dynamo Boy
57. Mantis Morlo
58. Charma
59. Roxxas
60. Satan Girl
70. Starfinger
71. Quicksand
72. Sunburst

Some quick points -

* The list jumps from 60-70 with nothing in between.
* I'm not in favour of any "to the death" rounds.
* I prefer the most popular/consistent/utilised version of each character.

Some notes on new additions to the list:

7. Twine - DNA era: wields an energy whip that can sap the strength of anyone it touches

17. Ze Tongue - Postboot; shapeshifting tongue

52. Holdur - Preboot and Postboot; super-strong grip

58. Charma (Postboot)- can mind-control men ONLY. no effect on women.

59. Stheno - Postboot; can turn people who look at her into stone

61.Pollen - Postboot; only demonstrated power is unleashing poisonous spores

62. Arrow - Postboot; weapons expert

63. Praetor Lemnos - Threeboot; instantly makes people forget anything

64. Zepha - Threeboot; wind powers

65. Stasi - Threeboot; stasis fields

66. Eyeful Ethel - Preboot; can grow extra eyes anywhere

67. Tusker - Preboot; super long teeth

68. Golden Boy - Preboot; turns anything into gold

69. Storm Boy - Preboot; artificial storm creation

71. Quicksand - Preboot and Postboot; can turn liquids into solids and vice versa. Postboot version could also affect organic beings.

.... I am now imagining a giant sized Emerald Eyeful Ethel smashing Arkham Asylum.

So Apollo's powers only work on females? Whoops. I hadn't realised that.

The idea of Emerald Eyeful Ethel is inspired too!

Females and animals!

I'm amazed someone else picked Ron/Ethel/Pollen to go through!

Maybe it's time for his powers to be *modernized*

... Apollo's HOT!!

I was with you Blacula when you said Pollen could stun the Empress and Earth Man ....


... but I still don't think that Ron-Karr and Eyeful Ethel can take down Twine.

Thank you for your votes so far. I have already begun brainstorming ideas for stages in the next round. I have decided to use Superman's enemies for the next round and would like a little input as to what you want to see. I want to use Project Cadmus or its counterpoint the Evil Factory, but realize Kirby's designs were massive. Which do you think I should use and which specific parts would you like to see?

Well, I was thinking that if Twine has her whip wrapped around Pollen, and she pretty much has to hold onto that whip at the same time, then what has she got left to fight off Ron-Karr and Ethel with?

Admittedly, Ron-Karr and Ethel are probably two of the weakest fighters in this game, but I think even the two of them could find a way to defeat a distracted, one-handed opponent who is without her primary weapon.

That is such a weird match-up because, like I said, Pollen's group is so much less powerful than Empress' - but IMO it's still a match-up where the underdogs could conceivably win the day.

I pretty much started with the thought that "Wow, that's an incredibly lopsided battle!" then started thinking "Well, Earth Man's actually pretty useless here..." and then it started to seem plausible that Ron-Karr could possibly avoid Twine's whip as well, and then I was like "Aw, crap! There's nothing they could do against the Emerald Empress, though..." and then I remembered the old theory that Ethel was the perfect host for the Eye and it just seemed too cool not to go with!

It IS plausible, and I can see it happening. I'm almost tempted to change my vote, especially since I suggested Pollen for the game!

With all the male villains in this game, that could be veeeeeery interesting

My count for the wild cards is :


3 Ze Tongue
3 Spider Girl
3 Twine
3 Sugyn

2 Chameleon Chief
2 Hag
2 Stheno
2 Apollo
2 Computo
2 Radiation Roy

Hmm...I could accept the top four as winners, but I would still have to choose three of the group of six to join them. Do you as players think that would be fair?

If not we can have another election to narrow it down further.

I'd be up for voting because it's fun but I'm fine with you choosing too.

Isn't it a total of six though ? just checking ...

It is a total of six, so I would have to pick two out of group of six.

I vote for voting!

I'm good with voting again!

If we do vote again, I'd pick Stheno (I can't believe I'm already so protective of a one-shot villain, but she has an interesting power) and... it'll be tough picking one more.

Assuming we are voting again I'm gettin my votes in early before the Christmas rush -

1. Stheno (I'm also a big fan of this character after just their one appearance. That was a rare late postboot/pre-DnA Legion story I enjoyed. The beautiful Alan Davis artwork certainly helped.)
2. Computo (The incongruity between that goofy yellow computer's design and his over-the-top dictatorial personality is one of my favourite things about the Adventure era.)

I'd pick


Computo and
Hag (for some reason idk )

I'd go Computo and Apollo!

^ I almost went for both Hag and Apollo! I'd actually be happy with any of the characters on that list getting through. I like them all.
