Contest Of Marvels Discussion Thread

[POWdER-man]

So is the voting starting tomorrow? Plus have we officially accepted the new voting strategy? That will make the threads be pretty dead. I wonder if everyone will remember to vote if the threads aren't up.

 

[Johnny Blaze]

My opinion, I think the new voting method should be held off until next season.

 

[wiegeabo]

I wouldn't mind the secret vote for the final match, but only for the final. The current voting method works fine.

 

[POWdER-man]

I was actually thinking the same thing. It would be cool to do the final matchup.

Hey with next week being only 2 matches are we going to drop it like it's hot....I mean are we going to drop all the threads and create 2 new semi finals ones and than a final one the week after?

 

[Phaedrus45]

Everything stays the same, which is I will say Voting Can Begin tomorrow morning when I get to work. It will go until Friday at around the same time. Same with the next round.

Also, I will be posting the Final Four match-up, but Powder will take over my duties for me after that when I leave for vacation on Saturday, April 1st. If by some miracle I have a character left (two very difficult match-ups for me; I see me not having any characters left, unless my small arguments convince anyone) I will post a debate before I leave. Just be advised I won't be able to rebuttal. Don't know how computer situation is, either. Probably won't get to vote; but, I'll try to see if I can find a computer in Disneyland.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Voting May Begin!

 

[JewishHobbit]

The secret votes will only be for the final match. All matches building to that point are normal, and all votes next season are normal. The point of the final match is just so it can build suspense to the point when I announce the winner by revealing the votes, survivor style.

 

[POWdER-man]

So are you are going to read off the votes one by one from your famous LOTR mug in front of a live audience?

 

[JewishHobbit]

My daughter hid my LOTR mug, and I can't find it

 

[JewishHobbit]

Huh, the same daughter just walked up to me holding her diaper in hand, not a new clean one, the one she just randomly, and secretly, took off of her butt.


hmph, kids.

 

[Phaedrus45]

I have "daughter at work day" today. She's already helped me release a car from being impounded early this morning. (Minor with unopened bottle of hard liquor in vehicle.) Right now, she's propped up in the other room watching Dora DVD. I made sure I gave her an excellent breakfast: Donuts, Cookies and Mountain Dew. She is going to be on a sugar high, that's for sure.

Anyway, my daughter has gotten out of her phase of removing her diaper and smearing her poop on the wall. I hated raising my voice to her...but, after the third time, talking to her about why not to do it just wasn't working, obviously.

That would rock! A live webcast as JH pulls each vote from a sealed container and holds it up to the screen.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Just a reminder...both contestants, the final two contestants, will both be getting comics. It will just be determining who gets the excellent prize and who gets the "I-almost-won-but-am-still-a-loser" prize.

And than we can have an post-show party and tell how we hate each other and which one of us "hooked up" afterwards....

....wait a second....

My goal is to be the "I-almost-won-but-am-still-a-loser" winner...

That would indeed rocketh the boat, so to say.

Um, I call the special guest "Trigger" as I think she's the only girl around here, unless I'm forgetting someone. The rest of you can have whatever guy you choose

I want an "I-almost-won-but-am-still-a-loser" prize

 

[Sparta*]

I WANT THE GRAND PRIZE!!!

too bad I just got eliminated

 

[Phaedrus45]

I want an "I-almost-won-but-am-still-a-loser" prize

Don't worry, JH...you'll always be a loser to us.

 

[Sparta*]

It looks like Loki, Desak, Doctor Strange, and Thanos (or) High Evolutionary are going to be the last 4...the plot thickens...

 

[Phaedrus45]

Well, it is actually possible that Powder could win both final prizes. His Loki will be facing the winner of Thanos/High Evolutionary, and Desak has to face the very difficult Dr. Strange. (Now, Loki vs. Dr. Strange would have been very interesting...guess there is still a chance; but, Loki's going to have his hands full next round.)

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

I married an' don't swing that way, so go hook up with yerselves.

 

[POWdER-man]

pfft...thanks for elaborating.....

Half the guys in this tournament are/were married and have kids......

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Pfft, thanks fer bein' a killjoy.
