Contest Of Marvels Discussion Thread

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Yeah, I keep gettin' server errors an' it's slow as ****.

 

[Sparta*]

It may have been a goal, but it was ruled that it wasn't...therefore no goal it was.

Yeah I know...I figured that when we lost the game lol

It just sucks because it went in. Yea well, life goes on.

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Constrictor went up against Hulk.

CONSTRICTOR WENT UP AGAINST HULK!

And I lost to Strong Guy?! Seriously, freakin' valuable information comes a day late an' a dollar short an' I'm SICK of it! ARGH!

 

[wiegeabo]

Now, now. Strong guy went up against the Hulk too, and knocked him down with an amped up punch.

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Yeah but every little bit helps.

 

[Nightwing]

Dude,.... I just burst a gut,... that was great! Lift a mug to losers worldwide.

We are a proud but depressed race...its about time we recieved acknowledgement.

[Midnight Ice]

It's official! Comics just went out today. Midnight Ice, I sent yours Priority Mail...I figure it should arrive Tuesday or Wednesday. Nightwing, let me just say that you are hella expensive!!! I had a choice between 32.00 for a process that would take 4-6 weeks or 46.00 for around 8-12 days. I felt generous and you should have yours arrive in a week or two. Also, I filled about half of your request. You have 22 Spawn books, 2 Spawn related, and the rest is pretty much Marvel.

Enjoy your comics, guys.

Phaed

Hey, I got the comics the other day. Thank you so much! You didn't really have to give me all those, I wasn't expecting it at all. Out of all of those, only one of those issues is one I already have, but thats ok, cause it has a really sweet cover. I will take care of them all and read/enjoy them. Thanks again for going above and beyond!

 

[Midnight Ice]

2.The best debater - Wiegeabo With 3 votes

3.Most Sportsmanlike - Jewish Hobbit With 3 votes

9 The worst location - Hades With 4 votes

10. The toughest decision - Strong Guy vs Constrictor With 6 votes

11. The funniest remark or strategy - pretty much self explanatory...what comment made you laugh the hardest through the first round......

Come on people,.. let's think of this logically. Mimic rymes with Gimick, which starts with the same first letter as Git'R'Done, which starts with Git, which rymes with Hit, and it has a middle of R, which in that context rymes with 'ler,. and you put those two together it makes Hitler,.... and come on, no one wants to vote for Hitler.

Sweet! Congrats to all the winners! Glad to know one of my characters was in the biggest upset category, haha.

 

[Nightwing]

wahey no battles to lose this week...i aint fighting.....phew i get a 'ticket outta loserville' - cheesy i know but us losers only have these kind of bands and songs to look up to

 

[POWdER-man]

Hey guys,

I wanted to let you know I am going to stay away from the Contest until Monday. I think I need some time off without thinking about the tournament.

I got a little heated there yesterday, and I apologize for that, and I realize that I need to take a break for a bit. For the last month, I haven't myself in real life lately, I am not sure what's going on. I have two matches this week, one is a hopeless cause, and the other one is a good one. So Blaze, feel free to debate before Monday, but I won't be responding until then......

Plus I have been thinking about Season 2 and if it's ok with JH and Phaedrus, I just want to stay in the "Contest of M" taking care of posting matches and administration stuff, and not be a competitor.

I have been neglecting some things lately and I really need to regroup my focus and this seems the most logical choice. I really love this tournament but I feel that I have to give my all 100% of the time for everything, so because of that I can't let up on things. So I figure this would be the only way to ensure that I am still involved with the tournament but not putting as much time and effort.

So Phaedrus, feel free to post the location. I was thinking going off the Marvel universe and using the Island from Lost as the location this week, but you can choose something else.

Let me know what you think, PM me if you want.

 

[JewishHobbit]

I understand Powder, take as much time as you need. You've been very devoted and deserve a time off. This contest is fun and all, but it's just a game and no one should let it affect your real life. And I'm alright about helping without participating next season, so when we start planning it out, you'll be heavily involved.

And the island from LOST makes me giddy

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

Eh...we still got plenty Marvel locations untouched.

Galactus' ship.
Thanos' ship.
Avengers Space post.
Avengers West Coast HQ.
Stark Enterprises.
The underground city in San Fran.
Annihilus' dimension (forget what it's called at the moment).
Silver Surfer's home planet (forget th' name).
Infinity Watch's HQ.
The junkyard from Sentinel.
The Hostel.
Clan Yashida compound.
The Hand compound.

Did we do Madripoor & Wakanda?

 

[Nightwing]

'The World - Weapon Plus Facility'
'S.H.I.E.L.D - Helicarrier'
'Latveria'
erm thats it for that.

why not stray out of the MU for locations?

 

[POWdER-man]

Thanks JH, it's not that the game is affecting my real life, its just that some things in real life are affecting me and are being transmitted everywhere else, but thanks...

Wolves, half of those locations I already have on my list, and some of the other's I was staying away because they were too bland....but I did get a couple, thanks...

I thought we would shake things up, since I love Lost and I know at least half of the people in here like it too...

 

[POWdER-man]

'The World - Weapon Plus Facility'
'S.H.I.E.L.D - Helicarrier'
'Latveria'
erm thats it for that.

why not stray out of the MU for locations?

the helicarrier was used and Latveria was sort of used (Dr Doom)

As for the other I think we will stay away from that one for awhile....since we just went through nearly the same thing this week...

 

[Nightwing]

what about the weapon plus facility then?

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

I rather forget Weapon Plus happened.

 

[Nightwing]

i thught it was cool.and it featured in the story with one of my favourite marvel characters - Fantomex

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

I thought it sucked, and Bachalism didn't help it either.

 

[JewishHobbit]

I liked it myself. And I agree with NIghtwing,... Fantomex was in it, and I think he's cool.

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

But...he's French.
