X3F Character Battle... anyone interested?

THIS THREAD CAN BE CLOSED. CLICK HERE FOR THE NOMINATIONS THREAD:

Clicky


Hello everyone.

As many of you know, I am a convert from the old GameFAQs forums. One thing that I loved over there was the summer Great Character battle. I was wondering if anyone was interested in having one here?

Here's a link to last fall's so you can see how it works: http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/contest/cb5

Basically it's like this:

1. We nominate 64 video game characters
2. We then RANDOMLY select the characters to play each other in the contest.
3. There is a poll for each battle... i.e.- Mario vs. Zelda. Then you vote. Whoever wins, moves to the next step. Typical tournament style.
4. It is basically popularity contest and can be spiced up by people making brackets ahead of time of who they think will win. YOu can post pics of your bracket and everyone can see how well you're doing.


I wouldn't mind making the polls for each battle. In fact, I think that it could be alot of fun. If there is interest, I'll create a nomination thread. This will all be in chit-chat so that no one can post-hooch it. This is purely for fun and there are no prizes.

Thoughts?

that would take a lot of time and posts, 64+32+16+8+4+2+1=137 posts

since you cant post more polls at a time

You're off there Viper. lol 64 contestants = 32 polls to start off with... so it's signifigantly less...

Either way, all the X3F community would have to do is VOTE on their favorite characters... well, and nominate them to begin with. I'd rather it just be a video game character thing and not a girl thing (to TMNT, lol).

Thoughts?

EDIT: @B36JC... you wouldn't have to do anything. Just vote on the contestants. Also there would be a thread to post your brackets. I'd draw the original brackets of 64 players and everyone can finish theirs out and post it in the thread that will be made.

Well, depends on if there is interest.. haha if people aren't intersted, it won't be worth doing. But if they ARE, it's a really fun contest and generates alot of gaming talk. I really like it. Thanks for your support!
