Hahaha, Bart and Hancock in the same pool again
hahaha I have to admit, I do love some of those campaigns of Hancock… wait some was for Barto.... no for Hancock and Barto…
oddly enough, they make good tag team if they were allowed
Hopefully we can vote for 2 in the 2nd round so we won't have to choose between them yet.
Though for me that would be an easy choice= Barto for the win! That is until God Usopp enters! -
Mm …
Nope, too hard to choose on a lot of these.
New plan: each day, assign each character to a smash bros CPU player, set them loose on each other, and the top two I'll vote for.
The fates shall decide. -

I see..Silly me
A single vote ? Ok, I can live with that.
Thanks, 9 hours of museum is not good for you.
-
I think I'm one of the few people who thinks single-voting is easier. Just vote for your favorite and you're done. Don't have to worry about supporting #3 and knocking #2 who you wanted more out. Then again I'm more paranoid than most people.

4-way matches? Interesting.

Ah, but what if you really like two characters in a match, but one is popular enough that you feel confident he or she would win even without your vote, and so it might be best for you to cast your support for the other?

@Lef:
So is it a multi-vote?
I love how this really simple post pointed out something we'd all missed and made a twist xD
@Red:
Why don't we have 1v1 matches and have 2 matches per day?
That way, it will be finished in 12 days and the multi-vote problem will be solved.
Two matches per day is very crowded. If they're both interesting matches, it would be a shame for them to be competing for people's interest and campaigns. If one is interesting and another is less so, then no-one would pay any attention at all to the less interesting one :p
Also, 4 in, 2 out is more fun. And new. And fun.
-
Hmm…
Making T-Bone win against trio of Enel, Jimbei, and Señor Pink.
That might prove... difficult.
Most certainly would require preperations. I hope I will find the time...
-
Do we have a start time for the first match?
-
Oh well, for what it's worth….
Dear ap community, I'm sorry for unintentionally making this round that much more cruel.
-
Meh, I still believe singlevote is inappropriate here; regardless of the drama it creates.
-
@Lef:

Dear ap community, I'm sorry for unintentionally making this round that much more cruel.
It's like I knew it's going to be relevant one day:ninja:
-
Well, this is gonna be interesting. Much better than tag-team matches I'd say.
I like how two characters can go on while we can only vote for one. Luckily there aren't too many matches where I like more than two characters.
These are my picks (probably):
! 01 - Magellan (I like them all, but I'm gonna go with Magellan).
02 - Bellemere
03 - Jinbe (I'd love to vote for T-Bone, but Jinbe has my vote until the year comes that he wins this thing)
04 - Zeff (…he probably doesn't have a chance)
05 - Brook
06 - Crocus
07 - Hancock (Don't really care much for any of them, but I guess I'll go with Hancock)
08 - Nami/Makino/Chopper (But since Cavendish will probably win this one it doesn't really matter…)
09 - Mr. 3
10 - Gedatsu
11 - Garp (or maybe Jabra, gotta think about this one).
12 - Tom (This is by far the most difficult match/choice for me) -
Zeff and Dadan would make a great pair of 'rents though, don't you think?
Grandparents? Godparents? …rent collectors?
But yes, by OP's standards, it'd be one lovely (more like functional) household. Sitcom worthy even. -
So, my picks are the following. Few uncertainties here and there that may change depending on the situation in the match (like if my #1 vote looks like they qualify for sure, then trying to push my #2 through etc.)
! Match 01
1. Urouge
2. Magellan
3. Sanji
4. Ivankov- Easy choice since Ivankov is only one I really care about.
! Match 02
1. Bellemere(?)
2. Crocodile
3. Shanks
4. Rayleigh
-Crocodile is my favourite but I can see him advancing even without my vote which is why I'm going to vote (most likely) Bellemere
! Match 03
1. Señor Pink
2. T-Bone
3. Ener
4. Jinbe
! Señor Pink is hard boiled and all but I cannot vote against Jimbe. Especially since I see Enel as a sure to qualify character.
! Match 04
1. Sabo(?)
2. Ace(?)
3. Dadan(?)
4. Zeff
! I really like Zeff too but when you put him in a match with, I'd say, three of my top 6 characters in the entire One Piece, his chances to get my vote are none. For the rest three, I don't know. Might go with Ace because he still remains as my favourite character. Then again, I've spent so much time to do all my Dadan campaigns so I don't really know. Sabo is least likely to need my vote in this match so maybe I just campaign for both Ace and Dadan and save my vote for the ending moments of the round? We'll see.
! Match 05
1. Eustass Kid
2. DoFlamingo
3. Brook
4. Smoker- Voting for my favourite Strawhat since I lost quite a bit of interest in Smoker after time skip.
! Match 06
1. Crocus
2. Law
3. Zoro
4. Don Chinjao
I don't know yet. Might just vote for the one who is doing the worst since I like all four.
! Match 07
1. Bartolomeo
2. Hancock
3. Ucy
4. Kyros- I was relieved that Kyros made it although I forgot to vote for him, and now he's paired with Hancock and Barto of all characters? No chance to get my vote here. Same with Ucy, which is really painful because he was the animal I wanted to get far this year. Barto should own this round so voting Hancock.
! Match 08
1. Cavendish
2. Nami
3. Makino(?)
4. Chopper- Cabbage is the one I like the most but seeing how incredibly well he did in his match with Croc And Doffy, his qualification seems pretty certain even if he's against two Strawhats. Waiting a while to see if Cavendish needs my vote and if not, which probably will be the case, I'll vote Makino
! Match 09
1. Bellamy
2. Mr. 3
3. Buggy
4. Kizaru
-A match with characters I don't care about that much, except Mr. 3 of course. So easy pick.
! Match 10
1. Gedatsu
2. Fujitora
3. Teach
4. Koala- Just want Teach to fail and Koala to be successful. The other two are meh.
! Match 11
1. Moriah and Aphelandra
2. Kinemon
3. Jabra
4. Garp- Garp, being the only useful marine in the series and all will probably qualify which is why I'm going with my favourite wolf.
! Match 12
1. Kuzan
2. Kaku
3. Scratchman Apoo
4. Tom- Same as match 11. Kuzan won't need my vote to qualify so giving love to cp9 instead.

What? Oh no, it's not your fault. This is the fault of all that Rock or Roll music that youngsters nowdays hear. It makes everyone so crazy and violent.

As long as Koala and Enel make it through, I'm good.
What? Oh no, it's not your fault. This is the fault of all that Rock or Roll music that youngsters nowdays hear. It makes everyone so crazy and violent.
Especially if they listen to anything by that Ozburne fella. It's the devil's music.

! This is how I imagined mods section looks like. Notice all the cruelty. -
Okay, after some thought….and a single vote option in mind, here goes:
1. Urouge
2. Magellan
3. Sanji
4. IvankovUp to campaigns, leaning towards Magellan
1. Bellemere
2. Crocodile
3. Shanks
4. RayleighBellemere is up against three tourney powerhouses, ouch.
1. Señor Pink
2. T-Bone
3. Ener
4. JinbeSorry, Nolus! also I don't get the appeal of Senor Pink
1. Sabo
2. Ace
3. Dadan
4. ZeffThe old geezer's slightly more of an underdog than Dadan. But no doubt Ace and Sabo will destroy the match.
1. Eustass Kid
2. DoFlamingo
3. Brook
4. SmokerUp to campaigns, but I am leaning towards Brook atm.
1. Crocus
2. Law
3. Zoro
4. Don Chinjaoliterally same deal as Zeff: old underdog against two super popular characters. (plus Zoro doesn't need my vote)
1. Bartolomeo
2. Hancock
3. Ucy
4. Kyros….ugh. I'm expecting Barty and Hancock to make it out but I'll vote for whoever (of the two) is losing. I also kinda feel that that image might come back to haunt me lol
1. Cavendish
2. Nami
3. Makino
4. ChopperHold me, please. Cavendish's upward swing in his last match has me very worried, plus Nami's been absent for months. But I like all of the choices, so…?
1. Bellamy
2. Mr. 3
3. Buggy
4. KizaruUp to campaigns.
1. Gedatsu
2. Fujitora
3. Teach
4. KoalaKoala might take this one but I gonna try to support Fuji!
1. Moriah and Aphelandra
2. Kinemon
3. Jabra
4. Garpum…......
1. Kuzan
2. Kaku
3. Scratchman Apoo
4. TomI'm expecting Kaku and Kuzan to take the lead, so yeah, underdog vote again.
Out of my picks…..Jinbei and Barty have the easiest chance while Nami has the hardest.

My vote goes to Aokiji or Apoo..Don't really get what you're claiming. That the red characters are somehow obviously going to win and we must have rigged it that way? That doesn't seem consistent with the characters you've highlighted, who are basically just a selection of very current characters, plus Croc and Magellan.

Yep, that damn Ubiq and his abuse of his precognitive powers.
He could be saving the world, but instead he's looking into the future and rigging a manga character contest.
For shame, Ubiq!

It'll be interesting to see how single votes play out when two will advance.
Man I'm so excited for this, I love rounds like this where 4 beloved characters have to advance. Since all of these characters were favorites, I wonder where everyone's priorities will lie.
Basically everybody should vote for Buggy.

The matches will all have losers, allowing them to also have winners. This can not be a coincidence.

Mundane uses for superpowers are the best uses for superpowers.
