Midnight Son is on there twice, with the X-Villains and Misc. Characters.

I also thought the Super Adaptoid was dropped?

 

[JewishHobbit]

Midnight Son isn't in the X-Villains section on the list I'm looking at. Make sure you're using the list from a page back. Here, THIS post.

And I thought the Adaptoid was dropped as well. I must not have been paying attention when I made my list.

Phaed, W, do we want to keep him in or find a replacement? I say just let him stay in. We already have some lists turned in. The most recent version would be the one from the Annihilation Conquest mini, "Quasar". If you scroll down, THIS website tells you what was going on during that time period. I just flipped through them and he only used Thor's powerset once briefly. He grew to maybe 10 feet once, he can fly, fire energy blasts, and he copied Quasar's power bands, so he has those too.

He'll be powerful but I don't think he's too uber and if we have him at this exact moment then we know what his power set is.

 

[Harlekin]

Weird, I could've sworn he was on there twice. Apologies.

 

[POWdER-man]

Man I must be crazy but I am going to sign up....after going over some old threads it made me miss playing again...

One thing I COMPLETELY forgot were the awards that I did up for every round during the first season. ie the most one-sided match, the funniest remark, the biggest upset, the best debater, the best match, the most sportsmanlike player, etc.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Hey, I forgot about those too! Feel free to continue heading that up. They're always fun.

 

[Harlekin]

Any chance of me just getting a random list, no draft required? I'll deal with whoever I get.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Nope. Everyone's the same. If you don't want to mess with the draft list we can just run it from the list unaltered... though you'll probably get a lot of Alpha Flighters.

Maybe you can just rearange the groupings to focus on the groups of characters you prefer first, then turn that in. X-Men section, Avenger section, Cosmic section, and so forth.

 

[Harlekin]

I just mean having a completely randomised draft list. Wieg, do you have something that could do that? Just mix up all the groups.

 

[wiegeabo]

Stick the list into Random.org

It'll mix it up for you.

 

[Harlekin]

Awesome. List coming your way soon.

 

[wiegeabo]

And now we see Harl get all the best players using random chance.

 

[Harlekin]

Wieg, I sent you my list. It'll be interesting to see what I get.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Stick the list into Random.org

It'll mix it up for you.

Yeah... or you could do that


I've never heard of that site before.

 

[Harlekin]

Me neither. Interesting though. I'll probably also be the only player to get his top 20.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Fortunately this isn't season 1 where Beak could have been your number 1. Fortunately just about everyone this season is decent.

 

[Harlekin]

I will be honest and say I made a top three for myself of characters I wanted to have.

 

[wiegeabo]

Cheater!

 

[JewishHobbit]

Wow... what a loser. You're out of the tournament!

 

[JewishHobbit]

So how many lists do we have for certain and do we have an idea of how many more we're waiting on? I know we're hoping for 10 to 15 players.

 

[wiegeabo]

I'm gonna try and get mine in tomorrow.

 

[POWdER-man]

I am about half way through my list....

 

[wiegeabo]

I'm going through the list now, and I just noticed we have Spider-Man and Spider-Man (The Other).

So we have the Brand New Day and Other versions of Pete?

 

[JewishHobbit]

Yes. The idea Phaed brought up, and I agree, is that with the huge crappy wipe that was OMD and BND he's basically a differant character. Spider-Man (Other) has all the experiences and full memories of everything since day one, and he has all the extra abilities that came with The Other storyline, along with organic webbing. Regular old Spider-Man doesn't have any of those powers and is just classic spider. And, to the best of my understanding, his real experiences are a bit iffy as far as what he's actually experienced and what he hasn't.

 

[wiegeabo]

Ok. I was under the impression we decided to not have the BND version and only keep The Other.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Nope, both versions were approved. It's just my hope that current BND Spidey dies a horribly violent and embaressing death in round one... provided I don't end up with him... though if I do I may write that horribly violent and embaressing death scene in exact detail.
