[Ahura Mazda]

Since you might not have too much time, you can just give up on that match if you want to... t:

Thank you for that generous offer but I would not want you to feel left out and ignored. It is only out of respect for you that I will try and respond albeit it might be at strange hours

 

[Iceman]

Thanks

Who won the prizes last time?

.. and which were the best characters?

 

[Phaedrus45]

I see we've had some debating still going on. I'll give everyone about 3 hours to respond. At 12:00 pm pacific time, voting shall begin. (Looks like I have about an hour of reading to do, anyway.)

 

[Harlekin]

I'd say the top 4 were the best characters, which were therefore excluded from this season. That'd be Thanos (Johnny Blaze), Loki (Powder, I think), Desak (Powder) and Doc Strange (Me), although I don't necessarily agree on the Desak bit .

 

[Ahura Mazda]

Wasn't that battle just around when Desak showed up in the Spiral theme in thor comics where he was extremely uber?

 

[wiegeabo]

I should have gotten a prize for getting Forge to the Elite Eight.

Well, he was the last 'ordinary' character left.

Some true heavy hitters there.

Can you remember the next four as they could be in with a good chance (if they get a good draw) this year.

Nah, the whole story was already done by then.

I can't recall the next four though, sorry.

Forge lost to Loki in the quarter finals. That's all I remember.

 

[Harlekin]

So I went ahead and checked:
Dormammu
Adam Warlock
Firelord
High Evolutionary

Thanks for checking

I have Firelord this year but also Morg who he comes up against in the third round. What a waste

Where's Phaed? Voting was supposed to begin like 2 hours ago...

 

[wiegeabo]

He extended debate time because a few were still going on.

till twelve noon us time. It's now 3/4pm...

 

[Phaedrus45]

Voting May Begin!!!

 

[Phaedrus45]

Sorry about the 1 hour delay, guys. The wet weather has made the impound lot real busy...then, I had to grab lunch while I could.

not complaining man, just wondered what happened to you. You could have been hit by a bus and then who would we get to say "Voting may begin" each week

 

[Phaedrus45]

I was thinking I might get banned for giving out websites with the sticky thread.

Anyway, what a tough, tough week. I thought only two matches were a given this week. With the rematch, I couldn't see how Microbe could do much. His saving grace before was him being unknown and his appearance. The other was Adam Warlock match. And, with that, Powder did about as good as you could do with Aurora...but, in the end...it's Adam freakin' Warlock.

Those are the debates I look out for. There's just something satisfying about the concept of say chase stein beating the silver surfer through some obscure loophole a debater has managed to find

Happy Birthday Powder!!!!!!!

This week is really surprising me. I'm going to hold my gob shut exactly on which matches surprise as to not effect anybody, but wow.
