Character Nominations Thread
-
What it's all about.
-
Just a fair warning, I'm going to bring out ever mud slinging tactic I have against Hancock.
Fine then if you must. We'll see if they're more effective than last year's:P
-
WB & Akainu big favourites I'd think this time.
-
@robbybedfart:
It's almost that time again, the annual Arlong Park Character Tournament. And this year, it's going to be even bigger, better, and other words that start with "b"!
Benn Beckman bitches.
lol jkjk
Well, I better start preparing campaigns for my fav boys and gals then~! Benn, WB, Croc, Shanks, Garp, Rayleigh, Shakky and Robin. I'm rooting for you darlings!! /o/
-
Will you mods/admin change some polls this year? please?
-
Post them. Now.
Hancock was only 12 at the time but if you really wanna see it..
! pervs
But fear not, we did say that we'll be having groups join didn't we. And it just so happens that Epic Wabbit Man is part of the group which has been named as Candy Boys. Will they be among the 320 guys though? I guess you'll have to wait for a week to find out. :ninja:
Can't he get his own nomination instead of being in a group? I love that guy.
-
Idk, i mean no seeded candidates? no revenge of the fallen (those192 eliminated)?
-
I'm going for Luffy, Garp, Whitebeard, Aojiki, Hancock, and Jimbei.
Also, Coby. With Vivi as First Lady, Shanks as Vice, and the rest of the Red-Haired Pirates as his congress. :ninja:
-

Sadly as much as I'd love this I know it wont happen.
-
why don't give everyone 4 (or 5) votes only? If you go Unlimited, you give it an extra layer of filtering the votes to remove the extras, or give an unfair advantage to those who can stay at a computer for undetermined amounts of time, like Drake's fans.
Voting for as many characters as you want per round is NOT the same thing as having unlimited votes. You can only vote for each character once in the prelims.

Already adressed this in the first post.
@robbybedfart:There will be other twists, turns, surprises and bonus rounds like the Omake round we just had, of course, but you'll find out about those as we go along…
-
This can only increase Moria's chances of winning this tournament.
-

Unfortunally not. He pretty much fits the conditions required to speak of a group/team instead of an individual. At least in this context here. Fear not, I'm sure it won't cause him any harm. If he is in the tournament that is. :ninja:
-
Nice stuff, biggest poll ever… It' s a shame we already know who is gonna win: Crocodile the magnificent...

Not when Moria is around.

This is a popularity based poll and not a "which OP character looks closest to a penis" poll.

Ok, understood, I just need to be patient and trust you guys then
-

Good thing that Moria doesn't look like a penis at all.
-
I'm voting for Beka.
-
i hope ace makes it to the first round, though i am not that hopeful.

Make a good campaign and hope for the best!

Ace doesn't want anyone to vote for him.

I just amended the first post with this bit of information, thats already been explained and clarified, but just so you all are aware…
At the end of each preliminary day, the top four most beloved weirdos will move on, and the other six… will be left in the dust. When all is said and done, we'll be down to just 128 characters. It's a 40% survival rate!
It's a harsh round, but you don't have to pick your favorite child, you can vote once for every character that day. So you can vote for just one character if you want, or the four you like best... or if you really want someone to lose, you can vote for the other nine. You can even vote for all ten characters, but that's a waste of everyone's time and you would be stupid to do so. Strategies abound! Even top notch characters can be taken out early! (Again, this is one vote per character, not 10 votes total.)
Only four characters per preliminary will move on, no matter what. Any ties that interfere with this will be broken with a coin toss, so do not attempt to get a tie for a tie's sake.
-
Shanks
WB
Croc
Benthis guys are a must.
And of course Sanji even if he hasn't any chance
-
-
Gol D Ace will be revived and be more amazing than any other character. AGOG saw the forshadowing so it will happen
-
Imagine if one of the prelims had Jinbei, Perona, Vivi, Hancock, Sanji and Ace.
Buster Call time.
-
Darkstorms Sanji hating is over 9000. He is naming him in the same sentence with Vivi, Ace and Perona
-
Something must have made him think he just landed on an island full of people only interested in his asshole. Something…

Flawless victors

Oda has basically made Sanji the butt of all his jokes recently.
Sanji in kamabaka kingdom was probably my favourite animated moment of the last year though, so well made, and it expanded on the manga by showing it was all his own fault.

Something like that won't happen. We've had chosen a system to make sure that each preliminary match is balanced out. So we won't have 10 big names in one prelim while we will have 10 no names in another one.
It might seem a bit unfair to the lesser important characters at first but remember that you guys have the choice who you vote for. Each character starts with zero votes. It is definitely possible that no names kick out big guns in the preliminary round.
We're not having the prelims for the purpose to kick any kind of character out. We're having them so that we could include as many characters as possible in order to give both all the big names and lots of the no names a chance to shine, to be campaigned for and to be part of the tournament.

Sanji is WarlordRising.

Heh, I know, I read your post earlier. T'was just wishful thinking.
I like this system, gives more of a chance to Mysterious Mustache Marine (Lacroix, probably)

If I'm not mistaken it was said that the yell "Vice Admiral Lacroix" seemed as if was refering to the giant that was cut down by Oars III. So to play it safe he'll be considered to be an unnamed character so far. But since it is hard to say that he's the same person as seen in the older chapters because of different facial structures we figured it's the most salomonic decision to consider him a new character for this tournament. In which case he would be allowed to enter. Now the question is if we did make him one of the 320. :ninja:
-
Makino should
wincome in second behind Buggy. =x -

Hmm… he does appear to have been wearing the same suit for the past 12 years, but if it means he has a greater chance of entering, I'll keep stumm.

By the way, the first preliminary match is:
! going to be announced later.

Bet he's out of luck again.

Oh Urouge, you sly bastard. For a second I thought that.. Ah, well nevermind actually. By the way, what are you going to do about your smallish Youtube problem? It'd be a shame not to have your AMVs around this year.

This tournament is only going to include characters that were drawn by Oda.

I already have a new account, just haven't gotten around to uploading my old AMV's to it, yet. I was hoping that Toei would undo my ban, but they haven't responded to me.
At the very least, the preview amv is functional on my new account.
-
Not allowed to become a warlord, not allowed in CP9, and now not allowed in the tournament.
Poor guy has it rough.
-
Was this the same guy who also didn't make it in Brooks head??
-
Possibly. It's a running SBS joke which Urouge ruined by not showing enough contempt.
-
man this is going to take forever, again. But hey, I enjoy it.
-
man thsi is goign to take for ever, again. But hey, I enjoy it.
I agree about this. But I'm going to enjoy seeing all the upset of minor characters taking out supporting characters and stuff like that. Yeah, it should be interesting to see what happens in this year touranment.
-
I just hope that the anime will advance quickly and WB,Akainu and some others will get the proper campaigning

He even has the triangle man song going for him. Oh, the wasted potential of it all!

This tournament was never about the winner, anyway. It's about the journey.

I doubt Sakazuki the Hero is going to have any problems on the campaign front.

It's not his

Sorry Darkstorm, wasn't clear on that one. I was thinking from my point: making an AMV for the guys
