[QUOTE="Talgian, post: 2949568, member: 26407"] Round One Voting [URL="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=169166"]HERE[/URL] In the fine tradition of the superb Greatest X contests last summer, I'd to try my hand at moderating the Greatest Character Showdown! Who needs separate contests for heroes, villains, women, and sidekicks? A great character is a great character. Let's find out who's the best! Let's see if Talgian can use more exclamation points! He can! Rules are simple (thanks Gomez!): - You will nominate a character. - Please post their name, a short bio, and a picture(s). - Individual beings only no groups. - You may nominate as many characters as you wish. - The character can be from any media source: books, movies, radio, television, and movies. - No real life characters (that means you Norris!). - When you nomiate a character please post what number he/she/it is. - Once we have 128 characters then the nomination period will close. - From these 128 characters we will start a head to head voting brackets to reduce the character pool to 64 and then to 32, etc. until we have the final Ultimate Character. - I will be the moderator and will rule on any questions or problems that crop up during the game. I would suggest if you are posting a lesser-known character to mention his/her/its source material. All actual contest rounds have their own thread. If you have any questions, suggestions, or comments on the characters feel free to post them! I will post the first nominated Character! Lets have a lot of fun with this! 1. The Tick 2.
