The Official Contest of Marvels 3 Discussion Thread

[Phaedrus45]

BTW, if someone wants to, they can end voting and tally the results. I've been busy at work today, and am now home...but, am going out to dinner soon.

 

[POWdER-man]

Next group of locations:

9) Savage Land
10) Otherworld
11) Age Of Apocalpse
12) X-Mansion
13) Empire State University

Age of Apocalypse is kind of too wide-spread; so, not sure if we want to strike that one...or narrow it down a bit. Also, Otherworld will have to be better defined.

Savage Land will have natural inhabitants and daylight. Otherworld will be without and nighttime. Age of Apocalypse has to be discussed further. X-Mansion is without...Empire State University is with people.

Cool, thanks!

Yeah sounds like those locations need to be better defined.

Sorry for the absense guys. I've been pretty busy the past two days looking for a new home. I'll go ahead and put in votes then close each thread before heading to bed.

Everything's closed but I'm too tired to get all the stats together or anything so hopefully I'll have time to do it tomorrow, or at least help out.

Hate to say not the greatest of weeks. A few concedes, a few non debates, there was only really 2 or 3 good debates that made me think. Slow week.

 

[wiegeabo]

Meh, it happens. A bunch of lopsided matches in this week's draw.

 

[JewishHobbit]

I will say this though... I'm excited for Cosmo Love dat pooch!

 

[Vanguard07]

i missed the voting this week. It's all good though. It's not like my vote would have affected the outcome of any of the matches or anything.
Still, I apologize for my absence

 

[Ahura Mazda]

So when is this week's matches being posted?

 

[POWdER-man]

Sometime on Friday but sounds like Phaed and JH have been busy lately, and Wieg is just lazy...

 

[POWdER-man]

I will say this though... I'm excited for Cosmo Love dat pooch!

I :heart: cosmo too. I was glad to grab him, with a relatively low ranking in my picks (bottom of high picks)

[CoMarvels]

Hey! Didn't we already have Marvel Girl, Valeria Richards, fight in a match??!!??

I'm going to post the match...but, obviously we have to rework this, as we already had her, I'm pretty sure. No debating that one until we come to a decision.

 

[POWdER-man]

I don't think so. I don't recall seeing her come up before.

Heh, what are the odds Xavier would face Moondragon in the first round?

 

[CoMarvels]

I'm pretty darn sure she already fought. I'll look it up.

 

[CoMarvels]

Yep,

13. Marvel Girl (HARLEKIN) WINNER
vs.
14. Hybrid-Scott Washington (VANGUARD07)


Was that Marvel Girl suppose to be Rachel Grey??? Now, I'm confused.


So, we change this character to Rachel?

Harlekin got the win, so we either switch characters or keep them the same. I'm not sure if Harlekin really wanted Rachel Grey a lot, or if he'll stick with a win he's already debated.

 

[Ahura Mazda]

Valeria Richards did do battle a few weeks ago.

Guys, I posted all my opening statements but I won't be debating much until Tuesday as I have to go to Sweden on Monday for business. For those that have to wait my apologies.

 

[CoMarvels]

Well, you jumped the gun just a bit, Ahura. I hadn't posted locations or opened debates up. But, that stuff happens..haha.

 

[POWdER-man]

Yep,

13. Marvel Girl (HARLEKIN) WINNER
vs.

I am starting to lose confidence in my memory which I was always sure of...

 

[CoMarvels]

Debating May Begin!!!

 

[Phaedrus45]

Ok, after thinking about the Marvel Girl screw-up (which is all my fault, so I really apologize to Harlekin and Midnight Ice), I think Harlekin is the deciding factor, since he's already debated the Valeria match. He might want to talk it over with Midnight...but, he got a win, and a win is a terrible thing to lose.

So, Harlekin, decide if you would rather have your original character, Rachel, or if you are happy letting Midnight have her. I know Midnight probably wanted Valeria more; so, you can get his input too, if you don't care either way.

 

[Harlekin]

Okay, the person in me that wants to win says: I'm keeping Valeria. The sportsman says: your choice, Midnight.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Well, two matches for me this week, and unlike last week, I won't be conceding either!!! (Weird week last week. I think it was the most conceding of victories ever.)

BTW, I hope Wolverine vs. Wild Thing and Moondragon vs. Xavier get some good debates. I can't wait to see what happens with Father vs. Daughter, and then who will convince me who has the stronger mental powers in the other. Great matches!!!!

 

[Hellstormer]

It's all Gravity for my match in Thread 1.

BTW, I got spoiled in the same thread. Mutant Zero is Typhoid Mary!?

 

[JewishHobbit]

Yes, Mutant Zero is Typhoid Mary. However, this wasn't revealed until after Secret Invasion and they still haven't explained things like how she only fights in small spurts and such. Due to the unanswered questions, we listed her as Typhoid Mary instead of Mutant Zero and chose to have her in the tournament prior to her becoming Mutant Zero. So whatever her last appearance was before Avengers: The Initiative. As far as my memory goes I think that was in Daredevil around issue 50 or so, but she may have showed up since then. I've not read it since Bendis left.
