First Round Discussion

Akumu

there are some characters i do not reconize, and i cannot serch them up in one piece wiki

Stronger
ShuShu (do you mean Chou-Chou)
Shackey
Jambarl (do you mean jean Bart)
Aum (do you mean Ohm)

who are they??

If I read right, all of these were answered by h3h3h3 excpept for Jambarl.

You are right that its Jean Bart if the man on this page: http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/505/18/
is who everyone is refering to.

One of this forum's artists should draw the final matches.

@dirt:

So what, are the nominators the ones in charge of making these little picture things?

I dunno, but I made mine to support my nominee! I'm planning to have something cooler prepared for the actual match though. Going against Zoro will be nearly impossible, so I'll need something worthy of swaying a few voters. I don't currently plan on doing any for anyone else, but I may change my mind in the future. I'm certainly no artist though, all I'm capable of doing is doctoring Oda's works.

Pandaman vs. Calgara!? That's not fair! I mean, Calgara's just gonna get owned XD

Yeah….I indicated Calgara...I really like the guy, it's just unfair...

I am definitely willing to trade opponents with you. :devil:

I don't think there is a right or wrong way to do promotional "campaign" material. The more likable your stuff is, the better. I happen to like your stuff quite a bit, though I'm a little jealous of how easy it is to find good images of your nominee. :pouty:

EDIT: I think I have about 7 weeks to work on my campaign material for Banchi. I have some awesome ideas for it, so look forward to it! Hopefully people will be willing to adjust their votes based on campaign material. I know I'll definitely be willing to be swayed in most votes.

So i gotta take on hina huh? Well on the one hand i dont think people like her very much but on the other hand who gives a rats ass about Mr.5? XD I shall recruit all available allies. Sets sail to gather artists

REMEMBER HINA BEAT UP BENTHAM! YOU CANNOT FORGIVE HER FOR THAT!

Bounty1Berry

Well, I think Gin might be weak enough for my Kumacy-kun to carry the day.

OTOH, there used to be a lot of Sanji x Gin doujinshi-love.

Stariana

Woo :)

Ace vs Kuma? Hm, this needs some promotion.

!
I sort of ran out of space for his other foot ¬_¬.

ahah some of the matchups are really funny!
I can't believe I'm up against Laboon!ahahha … hohoohoooo yooooohooo

@Bounty1Berry:

I would be very ashamed to admit that knowledge if I were you. If I was gay it'd probably be a different story though (I'm not saying you're gay).

WOW! Since you talk about running about of space, does that mean that you drew that yourself?

@Urouge:

Yep. Took about 2-3 hours with some spirit markers. I need to practice male anatomy anyway, so it was a good excuse. Thus the poor, grass-like background and the weird looking bent leg. ;P

You have officially earned my vote. Kuma fans will have to work very hard if they expect to earn it back.

Haha, thanks! The thing I like most on the drawing is actually the little hat in the corner I did as an afterthought. 'Spose I'll do another one to raise more support, gives me something to do as an insomniac ;O.

Though I still like the Emporio thing I did like last week for my deviantart page, :P

I think that one actually took longer than Ace did ><.
Then again, I was doing some work at the same time.

And here I thought the new Supernovas would do well, it seems like everyone of them has a hard matchup.

I think they should draw ALL the matches. That should give them something to do.

Stariana you've got my vote. Ace will take Kuma any day. Now i only hope a fellow fire lover can help a brother out when the time comes. Hint, hint, vote Mr.5

Also who decides who posts the fight snippet after the voting is over? Because i do alot of fanfiction and role playing and i'd like to take a part in that is at all possible.

I have nothing but respect for quality artists. This is especially true since I have trouble even drawing stick figures.

Hey now! Hold up! There will no blackmailing of votes, earn it like everyone else with a quality picture! Due to this lazy attempt I will be voting against Mr 5 until I get some good propoganda to support him.

I think everything is decided by Windrays (the person who made the original posts).

Hey there was no blackmail! I defy you to prove how you can take my statment seriously when there were TWO WINKS! I do hope you recall that internet edicate states that a wink followed by a second wink means 1. I want you in my pants, Right now. or 2. Take nothing i just said seriously. I sir, am no cheater.

It seems that I've left my internet etiquette rule book in my other pants. I'll let you off this time because I'm kinda drunk at the moment.

I didn't realize that you were trying to get laid… (Yes this is sarcasm)

Sadly, I have no art or computer graphicing skills. Hopefully the estimed user who nominated the Great Giraffe does though. Until then I shall entice the viewers with words that shall reach deep into your heart.

VOTE FOR KAKU, OR THE GIRAFFES WILL RIOT IN THE STREETS

I hope my buddy Bearsy aka Kumacy does well in this, he's just so damn awesome.

Oh, they will eat all the leaves, as well as your newly aquired cool points. Actually, they'll eat just about anything when they go on riots. Giraffes are not a picky breed.

Carnivorous giraffes. Scary thought.

My hand sorta aches now. Go Ace!

Got lazy. Woulda done a decent job on the brickwork behind him otherwise. And that's meant to be a crown if you're wondering.

That's seriously awesome. Kuma has fallen deep into the outhouse in my book.

Darn, that's great art you're making, Stariana! ^^

Here I made one by cutting and pasting it in paint :D not as good as the previous ones but it is enough to point my idea :)

I couldn't manage to put the pic into spoiler tab.. :(

So… this is how things are gonna be? People just posting art and shoops to promote their characters?

Alrighty, then.

Gogo Pandaman! His going to kick everyones arse with his 8000 duplicate arsenal. :D And his unknown-so-awesome powers. :ninja:

Ivotas

@Buuhan1:

Of course, the campaigns are part of the fun. Both are allowed campaigns for or against a certain character. The thing with the campaigns against a character however aren't allowed to be mindless bashin in the sort of "x character totally sucks because he simply is a dick/she simply is a bitch". Stuff like that goes against the forum rules and is most certainly not wanted here.

But constructive critisism or funny and/or charming propaganda is allowed, since then you realize it is for fun and not to just diss certain characters and with that the supporters. So if I'd say "don't vote for Vivi because she eats little children for breakfast" it would be allowed.

I'm sure you people are smart enough to get the difference and act accordingly to it.

igaram VS duval ?????

i dont know which one have the chance to win in this!!!

Too bad that we weren't allowed to nominate namless people for the contest
Otherwise this would've been a great match :3

I seriously doubt that a random nobody would do well in a popularity contest.

Meh, it's still funny to watch a great wariorr of the Shandian tribe (even if he is namless), get epicly pwned by a dog.

and yeah, Holy would've won anyway, but I digress :happy:

Damn, I totally forgot about Holy during the nomination process.

Do we have any capable fan artist to draw each match? ;)

@The:

No, because there's no need. It's not a "who would win in a fight" tournament, it's a popularity contest. It's a bit of a tough one to draw a confrontation here.

@Urouge:

WHAT!

What do you mean "WHAT"? It's part of the campaign I'm telling you. Just wait until I did up much more of the crimes certain characters kept a secret for now.^^

I'm shocked. I never took Vivi to be a cannibal. Does she stick to just orphans? It seems like the parents would get pissed off if not.

Ivotas

@Urouge:

I'm shocked.

That's all the result of her working on a clean image. Don't be a victim of her propaganda. At least Crocodile was man enough to openly admit that he was a bad mothersmurfer. ;)

shen_ron

I always knew that there was something wrong with Vivi.
Thank god, she'll be pwned by Sir Crocodile
