Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly It's football season, so it's time for a TOP 25 LEGION FAN poll -version 2.0 for 2003

Okay, so football season's still 1 month away. KID PRIME CAN'T WAIT!!! Seriously, I thought this would be a good time to start this one up again, since it was so much fun last year. And now that EDE's going to be closing his top 10 legionnaires poll soon, everything will dovetail nicely.

Some of you may remember this one from when I did it last year on the old DCMB's. The rules are very simple. You have to pick your personal top 25 favorite Legionnaires, and rank them in order of 1 to 25. Every so often, I will compile a numerical ranking of each Legionnaire voted upon on a weighted scale just like the sportswriters use when ranking the top college football teams in the U.S.A. Every #1 vote gets 25 points, every #2 gets 24 pts, and so on until your #25, who gets 1 point. There's really no way to do this kind of poll under the automated poll system, so everyone will have to post their own top 25 list.

Some additional guidelines: Every character who has ever been a Legionnaire, postboot or preboot, is eligible for selection. If a character is active in both periods, it doesn't matter which codename you use. For different characters who have the same codename (Lyle Norg and Jacques Foccart, for example,) make sure you specify which one. There are only two major exceptions to the preboot/postboot rule. Princess Projectra and Sensor the Snake are considered to be different characters for the purpose of this poll, as well as Kal-El and Kon-El.

This should be a lot of fun. The game last year was a big success! Let's all go out there and vote our TOP 25 Legionnaires of all time!!!

It might be fun to re-do this is in a couple of months from the standpoint of actually *ranking* the Legionnaires by strength/toughness/super-power (details, details...).

TN

Hey Eryk... you missed #18! You can drop someone in there to fill that spot, or you can bump Jeckie and everyone else up and fit in another #25! Whichever you want to do! I'm getting some VERY interesting numbers thus far and I will release the first tally in a little bit.

(Eryk, if you don't make the first tally on your addition, I'll insert the changes into the next one. Thanx!)

Todd, you picked Wildfire twice! You can pick another #25, if you like!!! I'll add it in to grand total once you let me know who you want to slip in there!

Oops sorry!

I edited the original post, KP!

Thanks,

TN

Here's the first count! A BIG thanks to Mystery Lad, Eryk Davis Ester, rokk steady, Arachne, Juan, Danny Blaine, and... well, me, for playing here at the beginning of the game!!! But enough about us, let's get on to what everyone's interested in... the RANKINGS!!!

Others recieving votes: Quislet(37), Invisible Kid (Jacques Foccart)(36), Dawnstar(35), Infectious Lass(34), Matter-Eater Lad(29), Shikari(26), Superboy(23), Colossal Boy(22), Andromeda(19), Sensor(19), Tellus(19), Polar Boy(17), Ferro(12), Kent Shakespeare(12), Spark(10), Supergirl(7), Chemical King(4), Kid Quantum(4), Spider Girl(1)

Analysis: Lyle takes the early lead in the poll, and with no first-place votes. He was in 4 voters' top 10 though. Also, there is a HUGE logjam in the upper middle of the poll, with just 20 points separating #5 and #19. There is also a large number knocking on the door of the top 25, with numbers 26-30 just 10 points out. Finally, I'm a little surprised at how poorly Spark and Kid Quantum are doing thus far.

Thanks once again to everyone who has played thus far!!!

Ahh, I thought I'd lost someone. I ended up deleting Tellus from the bottom 'cos I thought I'd picked 26. So add him back as 25 and bump everyone else up.

My top 25 Legionnaires are:
1. Saturn Girl
2. Dream Girl
3. Shadow Lass
4. Timber Wolf
5. Mon-El
6. Cosmic Boy
7. Ultra Boy

9. Princess Projecta/Sensor
10. Wildfire
11. Invisible Kid (Lyle)

19. Shikari
20. Element Lad
21. Bouncing Boy
22. Matter Eater Lad
23. Superboy/Kal El

25. Blok
If Dawnstar/Shikari are considered to be the same person, then I would add Colossel Boy to the list.

Others recieving votes: Dawnstar(63), Shikari(63), Spark(51), Matter-Eater Lad(49), Quislet(40), Kinetix(39), Invisible Kid(Jacques Foccart)(36), Infectious Lass(34), Colossal Boy(32), Supergirl(32), Chemical King(26), Tellus(26), Andromeda(19), Polar Boy(19), Sensor(19), Bouncing Boy(15), Ferro(12), Kent Shakespeare(12), Kid Quantum(9), Spider Girl(1).

Analysis: Saturn Girl moved fairly commandingly into the top spot, with a 14 point-lead over Cham in second at the moment. At the bottom of the poll, Kinetix droped out, while Superboy surged in at #23. The biggest movers this time were Lightning Lad, who snagged 2 first-place votes to move 11 spaces from #18 to #7, and Shrinking Violet, who, following her codename, shrunk 11 spaces, falling from #8 to #19. Another interesting thing is that both Dawnstar and Shikari are tied at 63 points right now, just out of the top 25. Finally, Spark picked up a bit of speed, but it wasn't enough to get her into the top 25. Kid Q, on the other hand, seems to be getting absolutely no love.

Well, this is fun! You guys who haven't voted yet come on with your top 25 lists! Don't be left out!

Saturn Girl maintained her hold on first place, as Brainiac 5 slipped into the top 5. The biggest winner this time was Wildfire, who gained 4 spaces. The biggest loser was Superboy, who dropped 5 spaces and out of the poll. Blok joined him in sitting out of the top 25 this time, while Shikari and Spark jumped into the top 25 for the first time.

This is fun! Everyone who hasn't yet played come on in and join in the fun!!!
